Tropical Sunrise Mimosas
David B.

The food is always on point. As well as the view. We love to bring the family and friends here just kick back and enjoy mimosas. Our dog even loves it here, especially when the weather is beautiful. Btw, the staff here and their attention to detail is incredible. They always take care of us no matter how big our entourage is last minute #BaptisteClan

Back again! Like always food was delicious! Chilaquiles and chicken tacos were spot on. My husband enjoyed his mimosas and my tea was never empty. We sat inside today and admired how hard their employee work to make you happy. Every single person comes together. I wish more restaurants were like this. Great restaurant and great food!

Brisket sandwich with beans and Side Fries
Alexis F.

It was a great day so we sat outside. The patio area was so nice and we got to see the planes and the county helicopter takeoff and land. The service was great! It was very busy that day and our food still came out in a great time. They have a little bit of everything. You'll for sure find something for everyone. The brisket l sandwich I got was really good and I definitely recommend it. My friends got brisket tacos and the other one got a salad with brisket in it. Both looked really good and they enjoyed their meal. Before I left, I had to get their well-known shakes. I got a coffee shake and it was probably my favorite shake I've ever had. I will definitely be back to try more of

Waypoint has become our annual tradition for Thanksgiving break week. Since my son is old enough now to also enjoy the planes viewing area, we knew we'd have a great breakfast experience. We got there right before a major rush so we got seated right away and had the choice to pick from inside and outside. There were plenty of people already wrapping up their early breakfast so we got a great view. I tried something new this time and hashbrown since I knew the O'Brien potatoes weren't my favorite from last time. I got the opened faced biscuits & gravy sandwich and subbed the sausage for bacon which was a great choice! Love their thick and crispy bacon! The gravy was so delicious and flavorful. My husband said the breakfast burrito was a bit on the greasy side but overall, really enjoyed our experience again.

Came here on a Friday morning for lunch. There was a long line which made me think their food is good. We waited about 30 min and when we got in, I didn't understand why there's a wait when there's a lot of empty tables inside. Anyway, we were guided to a register first and we placed our orders. It was more like pay now eat later. Our orders came fast. We ordered chicken fried steak and that was ok. Nothing special. The guava lemonade was really good. I suggest to dine outside if you like small planes.

Guava mimosa, Cinnamon Roll French Toast
Madelyn S.

I was in Camarillo for the weekend visiting some relatives. My aunt was keen on taking us to Waypoint Cafe for breakfast! We showed up early and waited in line for a few minutes before opening time. Whilst waiting, we looked at the menu so we'd be ready to order. Ordering is done up front then you are seated. I opted for the cinnamon roll and a guava mimosa. After sitting, it was only a few short minutes before all of the food was brought out. The mimosa was a generous portion and very delicious. I thought it had a good ratio of juice to champagne. The French toast was very good! It was sweet and rich but not too much. My family and I didn't speak much since we were very much enjoying our food. The style of the restaurant is very efficient but I never felt rushed. It's down to business with eating and seating but everyone was very helpful and kind. Overall, I had a good time at Waypoint! I'm sure my family and I shall return again :) definitely come early if you want to try it!

Open faced biscuts and gravy
Renee O.

We get there and it's a huge line! But we took an Uber so no choice. I ask how long the wait is and the erson up front is a local and she said " it's quick!" Waited for about 15 minutes for awesome food. Glad we stayed. Food was out in 10 minutes. Took some pictures this time. You won't be sorry.

Iced vanilla Coffee

Picked a Thursday morning to try this place out since I've been told the weekend wait can take up to 1.5 hrs. We waited about 5 mins for a party of 2, you order as soon as you walk in at the register then you take a number and pick a seat. Your food is takes to your table and the waiters to come and check on you for refills and anything else you might need. The food was delicious and had good options for coffee which we love! The chicken fried steak was good I wouldn't say the best I ever had but delicious nevertheless. The view is amazing and the atmosphere was quiet even with being outside by the airport, it did get loud for about 5-10 minutes when a plane was taking off but that is to be expected you are at an airport after all. I will come back, but again during the week where the wait time was perfect. Sensory level- a 7 for sound and a 5 for lighting in the outdoor seating area.

Cheese Enchilada Omelet
Cheryl R.

Long line on Saturday morning. Counter service is efficient. Service throughout our meal was outstanding. Every employee was pleasant. Food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. I enjoy the outdoor patio and fresh air while looking over the airport and seeing the mountains in the distance. I thoroughly enjoy the cheese enchilada omelet, but their hash browns were barely warm. I considered sending them back but didn't. Coffee was regularly being topped off.

Banana Nut Waffles
Kristie T.

I LOVE Waypoint cafe! I've taken many friends and family members to this place over the years and it never disappoints! The Sunday rush can be kind of crazy so get there early to beat the lines. When we got there, we waited in line less than 10 minutes before our orders were taken at the front desk before being taken to our table. We got a nice table outside with a great view of the runway. I love how the restaurant is decorated and how there's even a miniature runway in the back for the kids to play in. We are so impressed by the service too! My favorite dish is definitely the lemon ricotta pancakes. I told my friends that they're light and fluffy and perfect. Although they were put off by the idea of cheese in pancakes, they both agreed they were the perfect balance. Also, the pancakes are HUGE and you get three! It's definitely worth it. My friend ordered the banana nut waffles and they were delicious too! I liked how crispy and crunchy the outside was while still being tender and soft inside. Overall, we will definitely be back! Next time, we want to try the mimosas and milkshakes!

Cinnamon Roll
Gabriella D.

My family has been coming to Waypoint for years and we've loved all their phases! Food is always what you expect, huge portions, fast services and obviously the Cam Airport view you can't beat! Do I love the switch from getting full service to now ordering at the host stand and then as you sit down your food is already at the table? Not necessarily....I'm someone that who likes to have a couple sips of my coffee and chat for a minute before I dig in BUT I will say it's ideal for people with toddlers who need their food asap! The new outdoor patio and upgraded bar cart is outstanding, the Pineapple mimosas are my favorite and the staff is still awesome. We'll keep coming back for years to come!

Inside
Sara B.

I came here for breakfast with a friend. There was a line to enter that was about a 20 minute wait. Once we made it to the door, one of the staff members sat us and then called a waitress over to take our order and we paid upfront. I asked the waitress if we could be on separate checks. She said yes and then left for a moment and came back. She had just split the check 50/50 which wasn't exactly right considering I had ordered a bowl of oatmeal that was $12 and my friend ordered a full breakfast plate that was $21.50. So I am subtracting a star for that. The service was quick and we had received our food within 8-10 minutes of ordering. I had ordered one of the most impressive bowls of oatmeal i have ever had at a restaurant. And actually it is probably the first bowl I have ever ordered at a restaurant. It was steel cut oats with craisins, nuts, cinnamon and banana. They also served a tiny amount of milk, brown sugar and raisins with it. I really enjoyed it. We did have the wait staff check-in with us a few times and they refilled our waters. Since we were inside, I didn't get to see the planes landing which is a neat experience for the outside patio.

Chocolate Milkshake and Airplanes!!

Ask the Community - Waypoint Cafe

Is it loud because of the airplanes?

I didn't find it to be loud due to airplanes. The restaurant was packed so the biggest sound issue was just other diners talking and clinking plates, silverware, etc. Nothing excessive, but definitely did not hear an airplane.

Is it dog friendly?

Yes it is! We've taken our Doggo here numerous times.

Does the restaurant look over the runway?

Yes it does outside is the best view of that but there are windows inside too.

Is breakfast served all day?

Yes but service is hit or miss. My burger was overdone and the person next to me was underdone. If you want a great breakfast go to Hidden Cafe in Camarillo springs. Traditional breakfasts and Hawaiian breakfasts.

When will waffles be back on the menu?

They are currently being offered

Will you open for dinner Friday & Saturday night this summer?

Recommend telephone the business direct.

Do you still offer chorizo and eggs breakfast plate; not the burrito?

When I went in January, it was a plate, not a burrito.

How long is the wait on a Saturday morning? Also, do all the outdoor seats have a good view of the planes coming & going? Or do we have to request those seats? Thank you!

The wait was about 15 minutes last time I went. All the outside tables will do, though the tables that aren't under the covered patio are better for spotting the planes coming in.

Are dogs allowed on the patio?

Yes

What is the average cost per person to eat here?

The average is about $15-$20

Do they offer to go/ takeout?

As I know if they don't. But, of course they let you take out the left over food after your meal.

Do they take reservations for Sunday brunch?

Unfortunately NO...but so worth the wait👍🏻

Does Waypoint allow dogs in their outdoor seating area?

Yes they do. We have brought our dog several times as long as he is on a leash. Also, there is a local older dog who wanders the area and comes and goes as he pleases. He belongs to one of the hangar workers nearby the restaurant. Everyone greets… Read more

Is there bottomless Mimosas?

No, you have to purchase each one

Do they have a room/ area for large private groups?

It doesn't have a large indoor space, however there is space outside that could probably be used but it depends on how large your party is. 10-15 people would work. Anything larger than that would be challenging I think. Inside, there is an area off… Read more

When is the best time to come eat here?

Weekends are very busy but it's better before 10 or after 1 p.m.

Gluten free items?

I don't believe they do.

From the start, everything felt seamless--easy parking, a beautifully clean space, and genuinely welcoming staff who made the experience feel warm and inviting. The pastry case was nothing short of stunning, with each item looking like a work of art. I chose the marble cake, an almond croissant, and a large heart-shaped pistachio pastry--and every single bite delivered. The croissant was perfectly flaky and buttery, the marble cake incredibly moist and balanced, and the pistachio pastry rich, delicate, and absolutely indulgent. Even during the busy 8 AM rush, the wait time was only about 10 minutes, which speaks to how efficiently everything is run without sacrificing quality.

I also learned that they use Maui milk, which is a secret ingredient milk that they use for their milk. It's very nice inside giving beach vibes and very energetic!! It's very clean and spacious. It has many seats as well and merch to buy! Cool ambiance for sure to take a coffee break! They have many different types of drinks here! I am happy one is opening near me in Northridge!!

Those are the positives and that's where it ends. Let's start with the main product, coffee. It's HORRIBLE! I could be snarky and insulting but I kind of feel bad for them. I've tried a few drinks and there is this crazy after taste that is simply unpleasant. The baked goods are hot and miss at best. Often dry and tasteless. Now, the staff. Over the years they've had some wonderful people, but the good ones don't seem to stay more than a few months. For whatever reason they retain anyone devoid of personality and energy. Product knowledge is virtually nonexistent. Enthusiasm? You'd think that the caffeine would wake them up, but no. It's like they are on heroin. I've interacted with someone who I'm told was the owner, but I can't imagine someone so blah and uninterested decided to open a coffee shop. This place has potential if they simply replace the coffee, staff, and sell to someone who actually cares.

When I was there, it was mid afternoon (before closing) so it was calmer all around. I love their pastries, but the recent price increases do make them a luxury item. Kouign Amann are my fave, but any of their croissants are also great. Had a Hot chocolate at the Camarillo location, and they even had a little latte art in the milk foam. Server was much more talkative and friendly because it wasn't crowded when I went.

Huge kudos to Ashley for recommending their breakfast crepe (not something I'd normally order, but WOW was it good). BREAKFAST CREPE: A fluffy crepe filled with soft, melty brie, eggs, bacon, arugula and tomatoes, absolutely delicious and so well balanced. I'd get this again in a heartbeat. 10/10 ICED MATCHA: Washed it all down with a sweet iced matcha, just how I like it...lightly sweet, a little creamy, and still packing that earthy matcha flavor. 8/10. Definitely a great location in the heart of old town camarillo. Nice staff, clean interior, cozy vibes and good food.

The waitress and waiter had a very positive attitude towards the customers. They were friendly and had conversations with everyone who walked through their doors. They had both indoor and outdoor seating. It is a dog-friendly restaurant. They even have a dog menu. I personally haven't seen that at a restaurant. Food: The food was absolutely delicious. They had plenty to choose from. I got the "Roxy's" Chicken & Waffles: it came with fried chicken tenderloins, served on top of a buttermilk waffle, with honey, bacon, and one sunny side egg. The chicken was so flavorful. It was well season and cooked right. It was crunchy and flaky. It wasn't oily either. That was a huge plus. I also had a bite of the Huevos Rancheros: it came with two fried eggs, two corn tortillas, mashed black beans, pepper jack cheese, grill jalapeño and your choice of salsa served with breakfast potatoes and we added the Carne Asada for five dollars. I also tasted the Avocado Toast: it was serve with guacamole spread sprinkled with red flakes, extra olive oil, cherry tomatoes, arcadian mix, and balsamic glazed drizzle. It was so delicious . We got a side of onion rings they were so good and crispy. Also the pancakes it was thin it looked like a crepe. It was cute came with a paw print. The cappuccino was tasty. The organic strawberries lemonade was delicious and refreshing. The latte was also delicious. Overall: I'd go back if I was in the area again. I recommend it if you are a dog lover and want to find a place to eat with your furry friend. Also they do close early Monday - Friday they are open from 8am till 2:30pm.

It's easiest to follow this shops menu and hours by following them on Instagram as they don't have a traditional website now. They seem to be popular from social media and word of mouth. Location: you go up the windy road towards the CSUCI campus and this home shop is located towards the top by the housing complex's. DM or text to place your order. Open 7-days a week, 8am to 6pm or as documented on her Instagram. The location is shared with you once you've confirmed your order and paid online. I understand why the address isn't given in advance because you can only order online first, this isn't a brick and mortar shop where you show up and place an order. Payments are virtual (Apple Pay etc). There isn't client/person interaction, your drinks are left for you to pickup and it was a seamless transaction. Maybe the first time takes a little getting used to but once you figure it out it's pretty easy. Here's what I got: ICED PUMPKIN CHAI: The perfect cozy fall sweater weather drink. The pumpkin is pronounced and this drink it's perfectly sweet. The chai is flavorful without being too much. Loved the cream topper, it's a classic fall drink done right. ICED BEETLEJUICE LIMEADE: For the non-coffee drinker or little ones - this tart and fun limeade hit the spot. The drink couldn't be cuter with the gummy worms and candies on top. Such a fun drink! I love supporting local small businesses and I'd rather put my money towards an independent Local business woman making stellar coffee drinks then paying more money to go to a chain with long lines and no unique drink drinks.
