Located in the lovely, upscale neighborhood of Rancho Santa Fe. First time here. Heard good things about this place. Unfortunately, was disappointed. The chicken salad came highly recommended by one of the customers. I opted for it to be on their salad. It was bland and savorless. We were excited to see that they had a European coffee machine. Needless to say we each ordered a double espresso. Another disappointment . Our double espresso was served lukewarm in a cup. Double espresso is to be served hot in Demi tasse with a sugar cube The service was mediocre and the ambiance, inside and outside, had no purpose . Darn. I was hoping to be wow''d....maybe that was a one off day... I may come back, but not soon enough. read more

Thyme in the Ranch is a staple here in Rancho Santa Fe Village. Their coffee, pastries, desserts, breakfast and lunch are a must try. The service is quick and friendly. My favorite right now is the avocado toast with eggs for breakfast. One of the only places I have been that offers great quiche. The warm and cozy environment makes it a great place for one on meetings. Plus the outdoor seating is great for bigger groups. read more

Came here off chance, as the bakery we were looking for was not there. I'm so glad we stopped by. Their coffee cake was delish. So moist and yummy lemony. Customer service was great. They were nice at the counter. We didn't order coffee as we just had coffee beforehand. It's a charming little cafe. We will definitely return to try their coffee and breakfast items. read more

After changing ownership several years ago, the food wasn't the same and we stopped coming. However, I am happy to say the food is now back to amazing. I had the French Dip that was filled with tender roast beef and caramelized onions on a delicious Dutch Crunch roll. My husband had their Thyme chicken salad with big, fresh raspberries, lots of chicken and mixed with goat cheese and walnuts. Both entrees were huge and could easily be shared. The service was great, the prices reasonably, and the cozy restaurant oozes old world charm. What's not to like? read more

Such a cute spot to grab breakfast or lunch! The vibe is cute cottage. I walked in and they were making Christmas cookies packages. Staff was very inviting. I decided to try their quiche. I forget the name but it was the one with chicken. It was perfectly crusty and came with a side salad. I believe they also have a combo that comes with a soup. Also had an orange juice and their lemon bar, which I wish I got another to take home for later. read more

When a customer asks for no cheese and and it accidentally comes with cheese, it is NEVER OKAY to remove the cheese and then bring back the same item, which is what happened this morning and ownership needs to know this happened because thyme is an essential part of our RSF community and I'm sure ownership would be appalled by the fact this happened. read more

Cute little spot with plenty of parking nearby and a nice area to walk around in after eating. The whole time we were here on a Saturday brunch, people were coming in so it must be a popular local spot. Ordered the chicken focaccia sandwich and blueberry cheesecake. Both were not bad and the sandwich came with pesto pasta. For the price and taste, it was a bit expensive but we enjoyed our time regardless. read more

A few steps away from the Rancho Santa Fe down town area, we went here after admiring the cars at the car meet that happens here on Saturday mornings. They had indoor and outdoor seating. Walking in around 10:30am we were able to snag a table right away. We opted to sit outdoors and enjoy the pleasant weather. They have a collection of pastries and baked goods and friendly staff to help you choose. You order at the counter and take a number to your table and they bring out your food and clear your take when you're done. We got the mango cranberry coconut muffin, chocolate croissant, chicken focaccia toasted sandwich and the BLT+Avocado sandwich. These are all available in half and full sizes. Their breakfast offerings are available until 10:30am after which you get to choose from the all day offerings. Sandwiches were accompanied by a side of quinoa salad and a pickle bringing a refreshing element to the meal. The chocolate croissant was standard, and the muffin stood out for its interesting flavor combination of mango cranberry and coconut shreds. Overall, a solid brunch spot. read more

We have been coming here for over 15 plus years! Unfortunately this place needs a clean up! The papaya, Terragon chicken salad, Use to be good, But why would you put a papaya on both of our salad plates that is unripe nobody eats unripe papaya? The bathrooms are a disgrace. The floors were filthy. The sink was dirty. The gal that brought us our food smelled of a pack of cigarettes. Gross I spent over $75 yesterday for my daughter's birthday lunch and to say the least we were a bit shocked. This place used to be so great and so cozy yes the food is still decent but the things that they sell are completely overpriced! Just because you're in Rancho Santa Fe doesn't mean you can get away with this! Please clean up your bathroom, have your waitresses, not smell like cigarettes for goodness sakes! And maybe they should put a smile on her face that would be nice. Leslie M. read more

I took my in-laws to Old Town Rancho Santa Fe during their visit. The area is quiet and very upscale, but not much to do. We found a highly-rated bakery for lunch--small but busy. The food was tasty but pricey; my Chicken Focaccia Sandwich Combo was $20, and they had a Quiche and Blueberry Pie. We all enjoyed the flavors, and the place has a charming decor with tempting pastries. While I probably won't return due to the area's quietness, it's worth a visit if you're nearby. read more

I'm back. I come here about every two months. Food is good, but I had my first "this sucks" experience. I usually come around 11am or 11:30am before the crowds. This time I came at 12:30pm on a Friday. Wow! What a difference. Parking was hard to find. We ordered but couldn't find a place to sit for 20 minutes. Found a place to sit but it took the servers about 10 minutes to clear dishes from the people before us. It took about 30 minutes to get our food. I still love this place, but if this was my first time I could see why some wouldn't do the hassle. Note to self: do not come to Thyme In The Ranch after 11:30am. Once seated and eating our time was lovely. read more

Came in for breakfast while staying at the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe- we should have done breakfast at the hotel instead, ultimately. The quiche was fine, breakfast sandwich was overly messy (scrambled eggs rather than over easy would be easier to eat on a croissant sandwich), my bowl of fruit was the best part of my meal (varied, ripe, delicious), but the cinnamon bun that looked so giant and decadent and which came recommended by the gal behind the counter was terrible: hard and dry. Cinnamon buns are supposed to be soft and ooey gooey! Extremely odd, very disappointing. read more

The hard part is getting past the show case to order. Brioche grilled cheese sandwich was great. Next I'll add more cheese to it. Turkey avocado sandwich on fresh baguette was huge and very good. They have cooked items for dinners in the first showcase. Everything looks amazing and is so fresh.

I used to visit frequently and loved it. I went back for the first time in a few years and I'm sad to say it's gone completely to crap. My mom had to send back her coffee twice because it was barely warm. Likewise my grilled cheese was barely cooked which was a shame because the ingredients (bread, cheese and bacon) were excellent. I didn't even bother to get my usual after meal cookie because I had had enough disappointment for one day. I hope they haven't screwed that up too. read more

Thyme in the Ranch is charming and has both indoor and outdoor seating. The area near the checkout is chaotic due to the layout of the restaurant, but the workers are friendly. I was disappointed with the food. I got the Mediterranean quiche, which was good, however the melon slice on undressed greens was confusing. My husband got the super bagel, which he called the "potential to be super bagel" due to the fact it came completely disassembled. He was also disappointed by the plain bagel. Overall, the food did not live up to expectations. read more

History

Established in 1995.

More than 21 years ago -- Thyme in the Ranch opened our doors with an idea of bringing our family's tradition of fresh ingredients, made in a simple way, to the community. Over the years, not much has changed... with the exception of credit cards (we finally accept cards, yay!). As life goes on, we’ve stayed the same -- a haven for friends and family to enjoy a meal, take a moment, have a sweet, and celebrate a special day.

Meet the Business Owner: Keely B.

I've enjoyed living in the Ranch for over 20 years and was fortunate to have built a successful dessert and catering company serving the area for the past 15 years. As the owner of Thyme in the Ranch, I'm thrilled to carry on the traditions of this community icon.

Stopped by for a Mother's Day breakfast with a large group and everything turned out great! We got…read morethere early on Saturday morning and we were seated as soon as at least 8 of our guests were present. They were so kind and accommodating. We got seated near the restrooms and it felt like we had our own private area, it was amazing. It's not easy taking orders for a group of 10+ but the waitress was fantastic. We requested separate checks and she did a great job of taking everyone's order correctly and checking in on us. There were two other gentleman that were also very attentive and helpful. My grandmother ordered a plate with salmon and it was a bit too salty for her taste buds and one of the gentleman (not sure if he was a cook) made sure to take care of that. He gave her some recommendations of different dishes and brought her out a new plate. We really appreciated the time and effort it took to make sure our entire group was taken care of. This was my first time here and I will definitely be coming back. Also loved their chai latte it was so yummy! They have seating inside and outside. It is located in a shopping center with lots of other businesses so there is a shares parking lot.

We went here recently after a local doctors appointment. It…read morewas an overcast day, so we sat inside. Service was on the slow side for two people, although we watched a large table get served much faster. I was a bit disappointed on this visit versus the previous years. It feels like both the service and the quality of service is slipping. They used to have fresh squeezed OJ and it turned out to be more of a carton Tropicana style product now. Definitely not the same. On a brighter note, they do have fresh roasted coffee and are dog friendly., #TheCottage #Encinitas #FreshBrewedCoffee #NoFreshSqueezedJuice

DREAM PLACE for someone who is gluten free! I was literally giddy at all the options I had and I…read morecan't wait to go back again and again to try it all. I was greeted by two people behind the counter and was told to feel free to ask questions and try one of the samples they had. They also let me know that there were additional items that I could buy to take home on the shelves and in the cooler, so take my time looking around. There was so much good gf stuff! We ordered the Turkey Pesto Panini and the 'Trust Me Dude' Panini which came with a side of chips. Both were delicious but, Trust Me Dude... you're gonna want to try that one cause the name all the sudden made sense with the first bite. It was unlike any sandwich I've had before, in the best way possible! I also had the double chocolate cookie and didn't even get a picture cause I ate it so fast, it was that good! The cafe is spacious and had indoor and outdoor seating. They also had a shelf with games and a chalk board mentioning different themed events like game night and cookie decorating classes. It feels like they are not only trying to create a great restaurant, but a little community. They also take allergies very seriously so you can feel safe here. Can't wait to go back and try new things, so happy to have this new gluten free option available.

Pretty bad. I walked in with ice cream from Solana Frosty and some employee said "UM ARE THOSE…read moreGLUTEN FREE? WE ARE GLUTEN FREE WE DO NOT ALLOW GLUTEN IN HERE" I said sure, and ordered. The chicken salad on rye was terrible. It was like costco roasted chicken, not maynoaise, cranberries, and celery. I ate 1/4 of my jr size and craved mcdonalds. Register lady was nice, selection seemed nice, but probably had a rough experience.

I am very confused at the hype and reviews for this restaurant. It's an okay brunch spot at best…read more The attention for this place is driven by dishes catered towards Instagram and eating with your eyes, not the actual experience of eating with your hands and mouth. It's tough to get a table for a weekend noon. I booked our reservation a few weeks ahead of time. Parking is either near the train tracks across the street or on the curb. We got the egg dish and salad bowl. The yogurt for the eggs was deliciously spiced; dipping in the toasted bread into the gooey poached egg, creamy yogurt, and herbs was delicious! My issue with this dish were the herbs that were too large. Was I expected to stick a big piece of herb on my toast? The dish is saucy with the chili oil so my clothes were dirty with the oil covered herbs. Chop the herbs smaller for practicality! Another dish suffered from the execution. We got the bowl which I thought was going to be a grain bowl. Rather, it was a ridiculously-sized salad--as much leaves as a pack from the grocery store! There were toppings within like slices of avocado, pieces of orange, farro, and nuts. I felt like I was trying to treasure hunt to look for these pieces. The salad was comically oversized. It was dressed fine but suffered from the portion size. You could see this theme with the French toast too where you get 1/3 of a baked bread. I'm honestly confused by this chef who has amazing experience. Why do you construct dishes that are difficult and impractical to eat? Less is more. These dishes need extensive edits. How this place got Bib Gourmand is honestly surprising to me.

I've been to the cottage La Jolla location many times but this was my first time at the Del Mar!…read moreAnd it did not disappoint.. and the wait wasn't as long as La Jolla location. Dog friendly and will bring my cavapoo next time~ We ordered mor k g glory sandwich ($22) eggs La Jolla ($21) and 2 piece stuffed French toast ($14.75). I'd say the ftench toast was meh. But the other two tasted great especially the morning glory! Yummmm Service was great too: our waitress was honest about the portion size and the two dishes were probably enough for the 3 of us females. We still wanted order one more and she recommended 1/2 size French toast. It's also located at a nice area where you can walk around. We parked the garage attached to the restaurant. We left within 1 hour and didn't have to pay but not sure what the parking fee is there. I will definitely come back to this place in the near future!!

I enjoyed the La Jolla location but this one did not live up to that standard unfortunately…read more We came at a less busy time, and sat indoors. They have outdoor seating, but it looked cramped and right next to the walkway and the road so not very inviting. The service was not very personable and only checked in on us once. We had to flag down someone to refill our coffee. We ordered the Benedict, French toast, and an omelet. The omelet was great, but the French toast tasted bland, and they charge for each fruit you add to it, so if you want bananas and blueberries you need to pay extra, which I found odd since the La Jolla location just brought a medley of fruit. The biggest disappointment was the syrup--it wasn't maple syrup but what looked like house-made pancake syrup, and the consistently was an unappetizing gooeyness instead of viscous. For the prices they charge I at least expect maple syrup, not high fructose corn syrup for my French toast. Overall I probably would skip this place and try something else next time I'm in Del Mar.
