Tried the pancakes and the breakfast plate. Both servings were larger than expected, we could not finish either. I liked the scrambled eggs and the breakfast items better than the plan pancake.

Such a gorgeous small café set close to the beach (sadly no view). I had a spinach wrap with veggies and extra spinach and it was delicious. The deck out the front is a gorgeous spot to watch the world go by and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

Good coffee selection. I’ve got a bagel, it was ok, a bit too crusty for me, but the coffee and ocean breeze on the patio made it a very enjoyable experience for me. There are not many cafes in walking distance in this part of the city, so we are glad we found this place.

Great spot! Food is great and staff very friendly. Usually get the morning bagel and have never been disappointed. No better spot to get a bagel in Pacifica!

My go-to spot for a quick bite and coffee/tea. Pacifica fog is to die for hot or iced, and have loved all the food I've tried. Top offerings are the blueberry scone, joes bagel (the seasoning is magical), and the gangsta wrap. Super close to the beach for the perfect brunch beach day.

Great spot! My iced latte was perfect and so was my breakfast sandwich! I didn't get her name but the barista who rang up today was very nice. Next time I'm in the area for work, I'll definitely be stopping by!

Cute little shack vibe. Got the pancakes and the gangsta wrap. The gangsta wrap was really good it has a hash brown inside of it. Soo good.

We ran into this place heading to Sonoma valle on Pacifica and so glad we did. It was a cold day and the capuchino was nice and hot. The egg bacon sandwich tasty and hot the sourdough bread all was good. The staff so accommodating and helpful.

I eat here regularly because they use the best turkey meat, and always fresh, tasty ingredients. Their baked goods are delicious as well. The large dog friendly porch is great on sunny days.
