    We were just walking by and I really wanted ice cream, and lo and behold, there was a sign that said they had gelato. When you ask the universe, it delivers! Friendly greeting when I walked in. After looking through the flavors, I settled on a caramel something and strawberry cheesecake....I can't remember what the first one was but I do remember the flavors! I was a happy 5-year-old! I like how there are tables down this hallway which offered shade. Cako loved the cheesecake. Very impressed with their gelato! Looking forward to summer and what they will offer! Cako Approves!

    Service amazing. Cute coffee shop by the beach. Matcha was delicious with lavender foam.

    The Açaí bowl was perfect and the service was lovely. Also got a green glow smoothie that was delicious. Would recommend, great little spot right on Newport with an outside view of the waves

    Really good coffee and nice people! The cute little place is serene and kind of hidden inside a small shopping complex next to the Samesun Ocean Beach hostel. I had the 16 oz medium brew coffee $3.75 which is delicious and nutty. The place is also cozy and very welcoming.

    I stopped by Brew Wave coffee and really felt like Gelato, they have gelato to sell in their store. I tried their coffee before, it was very nice. And who knows their gelato is also amazing! I tried multiple flavors even though they don't have that much options,the staff is so patient and friendly to let me try as much as I want and the sample size is really generous. Finally I chose two flavors- strawberry cheesecake and cookie & cream, they are sooooo gooood! The flavor is bold, strong and intense, you are feeling like eating a real cheesecake, just the way I love. If you stopped by here, please give a try! It's very delicious.

    Got the Salted caramel latte and the gluten free everything bagel with egg and cheese. Super good food and great people to interact with inside. Great way to start the day! Also very dog friendly. Bring your pups along.

    This places is awesome!!! The couple that owns it is so nice, great customer service! They have a chess board and you get to play a move every time you buy something which is a nice touch. Drinks and food are delicious!

    Such a cute place! Not far from hodads this little coffee place has hand rolled teas! Gelato, avocado toast, and GELATO! MUST VISIT! Also, the bathroom key is whiskey.... A wisk and a key not sure if they meant to do that lol but so cute The owner was here when we arrived and he was so helpful and accommodating along with the girl at the counter. Great experience.

    Came to SD on a work trip from Tucson. My entire team had breakfast here every morning. The service is amazing. Food is so so good and always fresh. The staff is incredibly kind.

    Sweet small business in the heart of Ocean Beach! Stopped in this morning and spent almost 4 hours studying here - they also have free wifi but I found it was a little slow, it might have just been the day. All customers are greeted with a welcome and service is extremely kind. They also have a select menu of food as well as gelato for the warmer weather later in the day! I got a white mocha and it was a great balance of coffee and creaminess. The vibe is very coastal and I would definitely stop back in.

    Stopped by here during our walk around ocean beach and after grabbing lunch. Staff welcomed us as we walked in, and were happy to help. I ordered an americano but the set up is really cute and they sell affordable artwork from local artists. I love that the spot builds community. Thank you !

    This is the cutest coffee shop I ever did see! Nadine and Robert were so kind, helpful, and efficient. I got a vanilla frappè with oat milk and pumpkin spice whipped cream- Y E A H. Sooo good. We also got the bacon avocado toast, turkey and cheese croissant, and a muffin, which were all out of this world * in sweet drooling emoji here * If I lived in San Diego I'd be a regular at this place! 10/10, I can't say enough good things about Brew Wave!!

    Lazy Eye Coffee was hands down one of my favorite coffee stops in Mission Beach! I'm OBSESSED with…read moretheir Banana Bread Latte. Served hot or cold this is amazing & a must try. The shop has a super laid-back vibe. You order at the window & there are a couple of tables on the sidewalk if you want to hang out for a bit, but it's definitely more of a grab-and-go coffee spot. Service is friendly & don't let the line scare you away, it moves fast. If you're in Mission Beach & looking for a great coffee come here!

    Don't blink or you'll miss this teeny, adorable coffee cart…read more My fiancé and I were craving a cup of coffee after a leisurely stroll along Mission Beach on a random Saturday morning....where to go that isn't Starbucks? Lazy Eye to the rescue! Lazy Eye is sandwiched between two buildings with one table out front. It's a to-go place. When you're that close to the beach, who wants to be inside anyway? While they do offer regular brewed coffee, I'm pretty certain their specialty is all the delicious frou-frou coffee drinks. I usually don't go for them, but today, I was in the mood for it. Their milk chocolate mocha with light ice was delicious It made me very happy and our pup was super happy with the treat they gave him. They have a small bakery display which I passed on since we were getting brunch soon, but I'm sure there's something for everyone there. This location is open 7 days a week- 6:30am-1pm. Limited street parking as expected...it's Mission Beach. 5 stars! Check them out!

I suggested this place because they have pastries and looked like a good brunch menu. It has a nice outdoor patio which was perfect on a beautiful beach day. I ordered the chilaquiles and requested if I could have any chorizo. It's not listed as an option, but I saw that they had it on other menu items. The chilaquiles is made with a red salsa, and you can ask for their house salsa on the side. The eggs come scrambled, plus a side of sour cream and avocado. I really enjoyed it. It had just the right amount of spice. I also ordered an iced soy milk pistachio coconut latte and I couldn't leave without trying their pastries. I ordered a chocolate croissant and a chocolate chip & blueberry scone. They also offer day-old scones for $2, which I love that they offer to reduce food waste.

Anyways, the viral banana bread latte I thought would be house made syrup but unfortunately it was the standard syrups torani. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I got a bagel with cream cheese, eggs and sausage. Lost a point because of the syrup and the parking situation. The place was busy at 8am on Friday so prepare so that on any given time.
