    Anniversary cupcakes
    Aaron M.

    My wife and I came to Cayucos for our anniversary, and after arriving to town a bit late, and unpacking our things, we felt like getting a beer or glass of wine to wind down. We are SO GLAD we found this little gem and decided to try it! We were instantly impressed by the welcoming atmosphere. We were served by Bruce, the owner, who was very friendly and professional, and keeps an impressively clean and organized space, which is a huge plus for many. He is a really cool guy with a neat story(and gave us anniversary cupcakes), and had great recommendations for other things to do in the area, particularly, wineries and dining. The wine selection here is versatile and tasty, the beer is fresh and ice cold, and the food he made us(Chicago dog and charcuterie) was delicious. If you are thinking of trying this place, click out of this review and get the directions here ASAP! We will definitely be coming back next time we are in town.

    Chicago dog

    The absolute nicest people. Bruce and his staff are so friendly and welcoming. The beverages were great (try the spritz!) but the true gem is the Chicago dog! Bruce is from Chicago and takes authenticity seriously, making sure to have Vienna beef dogs, poppy seed bun, sport peppers, the proper relish and all. So delicious!

    Whenever we are in Cayucos, Beach Bums is one of our must-do stops. There is nothing better than sipping on a beer or glass of wine and sitting out on the balcony watching the world go by Cayucos style. The owner, Bruce, is a perfect host. On a recent visit, husband and I shared a soft pretzel that was oh, so good. Five star plus!

    This is one of our favorite places to hang out when we're in Cayucos. They have a great selection of wine and beers and some delicious lite bites like hot dogs and heated pretzels to name a few. The owner, Bruce, is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and it's fun to talk about sports and other cool topics. The outdoor patio seating offers great views of the beach and ocean, and indoors is a great place to watch a game on the big screen TV!

    GREAT DANE APPROVED!!

    Great bar with an ocean view, and they love dogs!! We have a great dane and they welcomed him with water and a great view!!

    Friendly staff, clean venue, awesome vibe. Parked on the street although they may have a parking lot in the back. Not too loud. Perfect place for a date. :)

    Had such a great experience at House Of JuJu, in Morro Bay California. The food was super yummy and…read morethe service was great our food came out fast, which I always appreciate. I ordered the Calamity Jane burger, and wow, it was absolutely delicious and HUGE. You will honestly get full after eating just half of it. I also got a side of their potatoes with the spicy garlic sauce for dipping, and it was so good. Definitely a must-order! They also had a great selection of sangrias, which was a nice bonus. The only thing I'd mention is that it can be a little pricey if you're dining solo, so if you're going on a date, be ready for your pockets to take a little dent. Next time I come back, I definitely want to try the shrimp tacos because they sounded amazing. I was torn between those and the burger, but I went with my default order. Overall, delicious food, fast service, and a great spot in Morro Bay. I would definitely come back!

    Last time I was here I ordered the sliders and a wedge salad. Don't recall how they were but they…read morelook good in the pics!! Had to park across the street in the surf shop parking lot for a handicapped space, luckily the traffic wasn't too bad crossing the Embarcadero. Waited quite a while to be seated. Loud concrete floor with metal chairs, could hear the conversation of all the other diners!! Distractions from people walking by on the Embarcadero, but great Rock view. Ordered cheeseburger with potatoes. Salad was "mixed greens" so I didn't order a salad. Next time I will get their wedge salad, but I didn't know if I could finish it with the burger and potatoes this time. Server said no fries or chicken strips becasue they don't have a fryer. Free refills for sodas, but only a little bit of ice. It was a bit syrupy and had a lack of carbonation, might have been Pepsi instead of Coke. Steak knife included with utensils, which came in handy because the burger was really slippery and I had to eat with a knife and fork!! Potatoes looked overcooked but that was because they are purple potatoes!! They tasted ok, luckily not too spicy like everything is these days. I liked the non-purple potato's texture better. Slow to refill my drink. I will come here again and have the wedge salad, from the pic it looks smaller than I expected this time around so it will be able to be eaten with a burger!!

    Excellent service and a delightful beach ambiance. I ate a delicious dinner here a couple of years…read moreago, so on a day trip to the beach yesterday, my first stop was the Sea Shanty for a quick lunch. I love Fish and chips so I decided to give it a try. I also like cornbread and noticed it was a side for another dish, so I ordered just the cornbread as well. The fish was very good, but the fry was a bit greasy. The chips were pretty good - not fries - actual decent chips. The cornbread was huge, and sweeter than I like, but baked well and the whipped butter was delicious.

    The Sea Shanty in Cayucos is a fantastic place to grab a really tasty meal!!!…read moreWe enjoyed it so much,we ate there three times on our visit to Cayucos and totally enjoyed each one!!! The atmosphere is inviting with a ceiling almost completely covered in baseball caps!!! The staff is so attentive,friendly and knowledgeable about the different types of dishes offered. The first day we stopped for dinner. I ordered a burger and fries....and let me tell you...that burger was grilled to perfection with a delicious char broil flavor. Twice we enjoyed breakfast there and never disappointed. They offer Swiss sausage that is deliciously awesome and perhaps some of the tastiest breakfast potatoes I have ever tasted(next to my own,of course)!!! Thank you,Sea Shanty,for being such a great host and providing a wonderful dining experience(x3)...this will definitely be our "go-to" spot the next time we visit Cayucos!!!
