We stopped by Heeavenly Roadside Cafe for breakfast on Sunday and were seated right away indoors,…read morethere was about a 10-15min wait for outdoor seating. I ordered off the specials menu - tri tip benedict which was delicious. Meat was well seasoned/cooked, hollandaise was great. Husband got a Berry Waffle which was huge, he seemed to like it. He also got a caramel latte, which looked like a frappucino. And our toddler got the kids meal French Toast with choice of sausage, he seemed to like it as well. Service was friendly and fast, it was a solid spot to start our day.

We were visiting our niece for school and weren't really sure where to eat, so we decided to try…read moreMad Yolks after seeing all the different options they had. Our niece had also heard really good things about it from other students, so we figured it was worth checking out and I'm so glad we did! My partner and I both got the B.A.E. sandwich, while our niece got the Spam sandwich. For drinks, I ordered Alex's iced coffee, my partner got the jasmine lemonade, and our niece got an iced matcha latte. We also shared an order of the Dirty Tots. Everything we ordered was so good, but what really stood out to me about the B.A.E. sandwich was how fluffy the eggs were. I feel like that alone really elevated it and made it different from a typical breakfast sandwich. I also loved the bread it was soft, fluffy, flavorful, and worked perfectly with everything inside. Another thing that really made the sandwich for me was the sauce. I'm not exactly sure what was in it, but it mixed so perfectly with the eggs, bacon, avocado, and bread. Without it, I feel like the sandwich could have been a little more basic, but that sauce added so much flavor and tied everything together. It honestly made the whole sandwich feel complete. The B.A.E. was easily a 10/10 for me. As a coffee lover, I was also really happy with Alex's iced coffee. It had the perfect balance not too sweet, but not too bitter either. The Dirty Tots were another favorite. The tater tots were really crispy, and we loved the curry flavor incorporated throughout. The fried egg on top was also such a cute addition. It was a little messy, but nothing we couldn't handle and definitely worth it! The spot itself was very lively and popular, especially with students, so it was pretty busy when we went. That being said, for the quality of the food, we really didn't mind waiting. We all left really happy with what we ordered, and this is definitely going to be one of those places we come back to whenever we're visiting our niece. Such a great breakfast spot and an easy recommendation!

What happened to my favorite matcha place???…read more It's as if Mad Yolks wanted to figure out how to solve their long customer line problem, so they stopped providing hot matcha (the real Japanese matcha where they whisk the powder the traditional way)! Then the cashier informed me that the iced matcha comes out of a machine. Say what? Hmph. After the long order line, I did get our drinks and food in a shorter amount of time! My substitute drink was the strawberry matcha. I paid extra for oat milk. And it was... just okay. Sigh. I don't know if the other Mad Yolks in Pleasure Point also doesn't serve hot matcha anymore, but not having this traditionally-made Japanese matcha will impact the frequency of my visits unfortunately. It was the main draw to Mad Yolks for me. Without it, Mad Yolks feels more like a fast food place. Update: They no longer have an ordering kiosk. You order at the counter again. It does seem to move faster this way! Tip to management: If you're not serving a main item or ingredient on your menu (ie, hot matcha, avocado, bread!), please put a sign on the door or window so customers can see it before standing in line. It is not ideal to find out about a menu change only when you've reached the ordering counter.

Got to the pool about 330 the great pool attendant- server got us a drink per happy hour…read more.. She never informed us from the get go - POOL CLOSES AT 5. Last yr I spent many sunset evenings w/o ever being asked to leave .. guess they thought I was a member. I asked her about happy hour food and she said happy hour is in the bar... I told her I wanted to check out the happy hour and went inside -she should have informed the pool closes at 5 at that point. I said hi to the bartender and inquired of the happy hour and that I was enjoying the pool. He then informed me at the bar to get happy hour prices I had to eat in the bar and that I could not take my happy hour food outside to the pool. The young man at that point should have informed me of the pool closing at 5 as well. I ordered. 2 tacos and grilled shrimp and it took 52min to arrive. I asked the guy bartending twice if he ordered my food. I got back to the pool. It was a few minutes after five after jumping into the pool the nice attendant informed me the pool is closed. I got charged $ 35 x2 for two people to not use the pool because I went inside to get happy hour food. A lot of non communication A lot of taking advantage of peeps unaware ! Not cool

We used Wilder Space to cater a baby shower for about 60 people this past weekend, and they were…read moreabsolutely incredible. Every detail felt thoughtful and elevated -- from the beautiful displays, signage, tablescapes, and darling water/juice stations to the gorgeous paper products and overall presentation. The food was fantastic, and the vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options were especially impressive. Guests were raving about everything. The service was just as exceptional -- the team was attentive, kind, constantly refreshing items, clearing tables, and so gracious throughout the event. They were also wonderful to work with on budget, incredibly accommodating, and even helped with a few extras so we did not need additional rentals. Wilder Space is polished, professional, and truly top-notch. We are so grateful we found them and will absolutely use them again. Highly recommend for events in Santa Cruz, the South Bay, and surrounding areas.

I got the chorizo burrito and tried some of the French toast. I felt like I could've gotten the same food as Denny's. One of the biggest reasons this place gets 2 stars is also false advertising. There was supposed to be a buffet which is the main reason I wanted to eat but then I was told they don't do the buffet anymore due to "low occupancy" and that it is only offered on the weekends. There is no signage that states this and if the buffet is no longer offered, it should be removed from the menu all together.

If any coffeeshop deserves five stars, it's Cruise in Scott's Valley! When we said it was our first…read moretime, the staff walked us through the menu, and told us what they liked most, and how most items on the menu were made in house. Our lattes were made with such care, and a staff member even brought out extra bruschetta board toppings from an order she had for free. The sitting areas are perfect for catching up with a friend or doing some work, and the outside patio is large and stunning. The eclectic duck decor added a nice touch to an already beautiful space with high ceilings. There is a play area for children, and a lot of bikers come around on their bike stops. Parking is in the lot behind Cruise, and there was plenty of parking on a Saturday afternoon. I did not see any outlets for charging laptops. Overall, I had the best time ever at Cruise. You should stop by, and I will be coming back again soon!

As we got off the freeway, she looked up and there was a coffee shop right down the street. He stopped in here for a quick bite. The two barista is helping us were incredibly helpful and patient since we had to read everything on the menu. I also loved how their store was set up and they sold local arts and crafts from the community! I love the community aspect here in Santa Cruz County! Perhaps she misread the menu, but she thought "egg stacker" was a sandwich because it was under the "bagel sandwich "category. But under the description, it does not say there's any bread. Lol, which is better for us since we're trying to be gluten-free for the day. I had an ice green tea and a salmon egg which was delicious and filling perfectly made egg with the right amount of capers and seasoning for each bite to have enough flavor on it. The green tea was perfect since it was 92°! I can't wait till we get to the beach! I was sad. They didn't have any nitro coffee, but I will definitely come back to try more pastries since it seems like they were out but then again we got there about 30 minutes before they closed. Lol.

The hospitality really made the experience feel special. A little tip: Skip the lift! The views are much better if you take the time to walk up and down. I also highly recommend sitting outside near the living roof if you can. Overall, a wonderful experience with a warm, inviting atmosphere. Good food, great service, and a place that feels welcoming without being hoity-toity. We'll definitely be back! Please note: Shadowbrook charges $5 for each slice of cake cut by the staff.

Even though our server was super slammed, the rest of the staff stepped in seamlessly to help with drink refills and to-go boxes. All in all, a great experience and a wonderful birthday meal for my mom. =)

First of all, the person who answered the call should not had gave us a wait time and kindly ask us to come in to put our name down instead. We waited 45 minutes and probably another 20-25 minutes for our food. Food was great, the only problem was that it wasn't piping hot. As if it was sitting on the counter for a while which should never be the case. As long as the kids were happy and stuffed that's all that matters.
