Ordered the chicken sandwich here yesterday and got really sick. It tasted like they use the same oil to fry the fish and chicken and my stomach doesn't take to fish well. The chicken tasted like a frozen Tyson patty possibly, not good at all. I am giving three stars for the benefit of the doubt this was 100% the culprit but either way the Sandwhich is not good. To the management I hope you take this into consideration and verify different oil is used for fish and chicken. The chicken Sandwhich was pretty cheap like $10 I recommend using higher quality ingredients and charging more. You are on the beach and basically in Malibu so please look into it. Thank you read more

I wasn't expecting much since this is literally a little shack on the beach. I got a pizza slice and it was so good! Very unexpectedly delicious!!! I would probably get a slice here every time I come it was super good. Girl working was super sweet too! read more

On a cool evening, I was craving a filling meal with a glorious view. I got just that when I visited this café and ordered the All Beef Hot Dog. It was the perfect meal since while I was enjoying it, I was able to enjoy the beachside views along with the beautiful ocean. I was happy and enjoyed the rest of the weekend evening. The service was kind and I also parked nearby without any issues. If you are ever in the area when going to this beach, I would definitely recommend this place! read more

I bike along the beach regularly and this is a great little beach cafe at the end of the bike path so it's a great place to refuel for the return trip back. They have a large variety of food. Everything from burgers and hot dogs to Tacos and even a full menu of desserts. read more

On my way from malibu to santa monica Pier, I stopped by this place. I thought that instead of eating another burger, maybe I should try something a little more healthy, so I ordered the fish and chips. Had I known what I was getting, I would have stuck to the burger. I got three pieces of battered fish that were drenched in oil. Oil was literally dripping off of them. The fries were soft and oily. One of the pieces of fishe was not even cooked all the way through and was rubbery. For nearly $16, it was the worst food I have ever had. In fact, it was worse than the burger I got almost 20 years ago at Joe's Greasy Spoon at a truck stop on I-84 in Pennsylvania. If I could give no stars, I would. Don't waste your money here and have mercy on your body. EAT SOMEWHERE ELSE. read more

I loved the convenience of this beach cafe! First off they take cash only. There is an ATM available for your convenience however it comes with a fee. The cafe has their prices listed which was helpful. They have a range of items-hamburger, fries, pizza, ice cream, chips, drinks, candy. We ordered fries and ice cream, it was a perfect snack for us. The fries were delicious. They were busy when I went on a weekend but the line goes fast, thank goodness because there is no shade on a hot day. They are located right next to the bathrooms and near the parking lot. They have a couple of tables with umbrellas for customers. They provide boxes for you to carry your items back with you if you are taking it back to the beach like I was. Awesome place, we will be back! read more

Great view, nice selection of good food for breakfast or lunch, super kid friendly due to being located next to the playground at the beach. Nice attentive staff. Don't order the house coffee it's pretty gross! The latte would be a better choice. Reasonable pricing. read more

Beautiful location, friendly staff, and great food. What more could you ask for?? Parking can be a bit of a hassle (metered and small lot) but the lovely location and yummy food is well worth it! read more

Located at the entrance of Will Rogers State Beach lies the Beach Side Cafe. It is true what other Yelpers have said about this place- no customer service, no napkins or utensils and only ketchup and mustard made readily available. Oh, and CASH ONLY. There is an ATM if you need it though. The prices are steep; we ordered a grilled cheese, fries and turkey sandwich and it cost $19. My fries were cold and soggy but the sandwiches were decent. The only thing this place has going for them is their location so if you're willing to walk a little farther South, I highly encourage you go to Perry's Cafe where the seating and condiments are ample and abundant. read more

Great food and super nice service. Ordered the sandwich with fries. Will be coming back.

I came here because I wanted to check this place out being so close to Palisades and not driving all the way down to the crowded beaches and super glad we came here. I had a nice delicious sandwich plus and neopolitan ice cream sandwich. Only surprise was you need CASH, and like a dork, I just brought my debit card. Lesson learned: ALWAYS BRING CASH. Menu here is shockingly amazing! I've been to beaches over Southern CA and most dive places only have limited options. Kudos to this place for having two sweet menus. I basically ordered and enjoyed my food on the beach. read more

Okay place but overprice the menu items other than what the menu says plus charges extra 75 cents at the end. Not very good food either. read more

Four star for convenience and how inexpensive it is. It is cash only, which sucks but there is an ATM. I was scared it was going to be an expensive fee but it was only $3.50. Glad it was there, I was hungry and only had chips and drinks! Can't complain! read more

Great options for food when on the beach! Portions are great too. CASH ONLY. Prices: A meal with Cheeseburger, fries, and drink is about $14. Burgers are about $7 plus $1 for any bacon or add ons. Burgers come with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. Ice cream starts at about $5. Fries are about $6 if you're just ordering a side, and the portion is huge. Food: All of my food was delicious. The fries are definitely frozen, and were a little overcooked, but still good. I enjoyed it all. Food is served in a handy uncovered box that you can easily walk back to your beach area. They provide napkins and packets of ketchup. Seating: They have a few tables available Prep time: You'll wait about 15 minutes for your order. (I went on a pretty busy day) Staff: The lady that served me was very nice and accommodating. read more

Terrific place to have a great breakfast before walking around the lake and up to the library. All tables are outside under the provided shade. Food was excellent and above-average. The banana pudding was exactly the way I like it. Soul mate for pudding! read more

The food is disgusting and ridiculously overpriced. Their burgers are old, dry, cold and without condiments. Luckily they are also tiny so the struggle is brief. A 1 dollar burger from McDonald's is significantly better. It also takes forever to even place an order and workers are rude. In addition, it's cash only and their ATM has a $3.50 fee. Pretty much a robbery, which seems to be a recurring theme in this place. I'd rather starve than eat here ever again read more

Worst pizza of all time.... it tasted like moldy cheese with expired pepperonis terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible read more

Decent food for beach fare. Soft pretzel was made fresh. The chips in the shrimp & chips were seasoned fries, which I wasn't expecting. They were good though I prefer my fries a little crispier. We were there on boxing day when it was very uncrowded. (We were order #4 when we arrived at noon.) Took about 10 minutes to get our food. Prices are high, that is to say in line with other beachside concessions. read more

Honestly, for a beach cafe, it's not horrible. The food certainly isn't great (there are even some items that I'd avoid) but it's nice to have something right on the beach, so that you don't have to leave and pay for parking again. Overall, pretty "meh" experience. Only rated this high because of the convenience. read more

45 min wait for two burgers and chicken tenders. Huge line of frustrated people. Food sitting out, just to mock you. This seemed like the only option when you do a spontaneous trip to the beach and forget to bring food, and I guess that's why they can get away with slow service. They need an expeditor in there. read more

If there was an option to give this place a ZERO star rating, i genuinely would. The workers and manager have the absolute worst attitude problem. Good customer service here is definitely nonexistent. We asked the manager for napkins and he only gave us a SINGULAR napkin, when we asked for more he looked at us with a disgusting face as if giving a couple more napkins was going to make the cafe go bankrupt. Next, we had ordered 10 plates full of different foods, one including a salad. We had walked all the way back to our seats at the beach to eat, when we realized that our salad had no dressing & they didn't even give us a fork. IF YOU KNEW WE WERE GETTING A SALAD WHY WOULD YOU NOT GIVE A FORK? c.o.m.m.o.n s.e.n.s.e! Later, we went back to order more food with our friends that joined us. After we ordered we NICELY wanted to tell the manager our issues from before to allow him to understand our problems and fix them for future customers. Instead of the manager apologizing for the inconvenience, he kept shouting "I was not the one who was helping you guys, i do not know you guys." We responded back asking for him not to shout and that all we wanted was for them to understand & apologize and he STILL continued to be rude and ended the conversation by calling us "NASTY people" & that out of everyone on the beach he does not care about us as customers, because they have more than enough. On top of everything none of the employees had any hairnets, hats, or gloves on. Very unsanitary! I would rather die from starvation than to ever order any food or drinks from this place ever again. read more

Slow service and cash only. 80+ minutes for two burgers. Spent my time at the beach waiting for my number to get called.

If i could have left no stars i would. Worst service ever. How do you wait 30 min for a hamburger. Then when you bring it to their attention, they still give 2 other people hamburgers that where after me. Prices are ridiculous for food McDonald's makes better.would not ever go back. read more

Service is to slow and they only accept cash my corn dog was a bit burnt. They are located near the showers so next to it the floors are very wet. read more
