Yummmmm good food great ambience!!! I go here on Saturday mornings to grab a bite and some beach. Parking lot attached but usually full on the weekend due to the park. The people that work here always seem happy and joyful. I mean if I worked across the street from the beach, id be stoked!! Anyways, I usually get the bucc muff because it is a reasonable price and fills me up. I enjoy being able to choose fries as a side for only $1.75 coffee is pretty good and salsa is made fresh every day. The only reason I don't give it five stars is because for being a shack the prices are a little high on the burritos and the lack of parking. Otherwise I enjoy this on my lazy weekend. read more

Pretty darn amazing! I loved how there was plenty of free parking. The service was super fast and the food just delicious enough to make the wait worth the while. Food = 9/10 The salsa could use some improvement. I also love the fact that it's directly across from the beach!! Take your food/ drinks and enjoy along the ocean, pero PLEASE PICK UP your trash, for the love of Mama Earth! read more

Pricey spot but very cute location directly across from the beach. The service was quick, but I can imagine it taking awhile if it were a busy day. The food was definitely a 10/10 though. Soooo yummy. read more

I am still dreaming of their carne asada breakfast taco, add fries and a smoothie. At first you're like, why am I paying so much for one taco? but then you get it and your like..it's literally a mini burrito so ...worth it. read more

Buccaneer Cafe - carne asada breakfast taco with fries and a smoothie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oceanside, California

Nice little shack right across the beach, very cute vibe. Did a little impromptu pass by and there was a long line but it was a Sunday around lunch time, either way the service was very efficient because I was in line for approximately 20 minutes and got my drink within 2 and food less than 10. I got a California burrito, it was good but I think a couple bucks overpriced priced for the size but it was delicious nonetheless. Acai smoothie was great, orange juice tasted fresh and the Mexican mocha was good. They have a small seating area with a couple of benches but if it's full there is always a big park behind it, great for a picnic Spent around 50 for 3 people. read more

Buccaneer is so good!! The service is great, the food is delicious, and the view of the ocean is beautiful!

So I've been a fan of the food and the service at The Bucc for years. Always a friendly, family vibe. But today was ABOVE and beyond. I gone stung by a stingray on my paddle out which ended my surf session before it even started. I went up to the counter thinking I'd get a cup of hot water to pour on my foot before I got in my car to drive home. Well, the crew brought out a bucket filled with hot water. The bucket had "Stingray Bucket" written on with instructions not to use for food prep. I had a quick soak and was on my way. Thanks again Buccaneer Cafe. I'm a customer for life. read more

love this place, they have great coffee, smoothies and food. Don't love the line, but it's worth it!

My go to place for breakfast! Door Dash now delivers when I can't make it there. Nothing better to eat a delicious breakfast burrito looking at the ocean. Their burritos are filled with fluffy eggs. You can get different meats or soy chorizo. They also have egg free options. I love supporting small businesses. Eat there! It's great! read more

This place was so cool we all got smoothies and coffee! They have really cool merch and the seating was nice just right on the beach by the big park. Service was good too read more

Cute little cafe across from the beach. Food is great and consistent. Everything I've had has been tasty. It can get very busy but the view keeps you busy where you don't notice it and they do their best to get the orders out quickly. This is one of our favorite brunch spots! read more

You can't get more hyper local than Buccaneer Cafe. It's an Oceanside local favorite, so if you want to live like a local for breakfast and lunch (they close in the early afternoon), this is your spot. The breakfast burritos and coffees are delish. This time around I opted for the avocado toast. I like that the offer a gluten free bread option for those of us who need to cut back on occasion. There was avocado on avocado on avocado on this thing!!!! Buccaneer Cafe is walk-up counter style restaurant with charming picnic tables (and umbrellas) out front. It's situated across the street from Buccaneer Beach and shares a parking lot with the park. I believe there are restrooms for customers. Beverages usually come out quick, food tends to take a little longer but is always worth it. If you are from out of town, the California price on your bill can be jarring. But just know that you are paying for the tasty food, good service, and killer view. This is my favorite spot to go for a Uber casual beach breakfast any day of the week (except when it's raining). Love you Buccaneer Cafe. read more

The location is great! At the beach with a beautiful view. They are very busy so the service was pretty slow. My husband ordered the Soyrizo burrito. It was delicious. My order was incorrect. I took it back. They graciously messed it up a second time. Oh well. It was delicious. read more

this place is LEGIT. amazing ambiance, delicious food, right on the beach. TOTALLY worth the price. I walked 30 minutes just to come here but it was so worth it. highly recommend!!! read more

Just had lunch here with a few friends. We probably get together here at least once a month. Food is always great! They have a great selection of food from, breakfast sandwiches, burritos, and amazing acai bowls. When I am feeling hungry, like I was today, I always go for the Kitchen Sink Burrito! It is YUMMY! There can sometimes be a wait here, but it is well worth it, and you can't beat the view! Outside dining area is small, but always well kept! If you can't find a seat, the beach and park are literally a few steps away! I highly recommend this place to everyone! Anna, took our order today, and she was awesome! Such great people here! :) read more

Incredible!!!!!!!!! The girl with the golden curls is so sweet and really made my day. Ordered a burrito with extra eggs and they delivered! Will definitely be coming back :) read more

Food is okay a bit over priced 13 dollars for a burrito is fine as long as it's a big burrito Service waiting 30-40 minutes for a burrito to come out 9 people waiting for food I get that. Just know if there's a a lot of people service time is at least gonna be a 40 minute wait. so service was friendly I'll leave it at that. Ambiance 10/10 can't complain with ocean view and clean area in front the bathrooms on the other hand they could give a fuck less I assume it's cause it's city so they could claim "it's not our problem" kinda mentality but for the most part the wait was the real drag. I went saw the ocean for a good minute, sat around made a few phone calls and still ended up waiting 20 minutes for an overpriced and filler burrito that consisted mostly of egg and potato. A dollar and 70 cents to make a burrito I paid 12 bucks for. Okay a lady come out during the time of writing this and asked about 4 people for if they were waiting for food. For a Monday morning I thought this place would be empty. Update she was nice to me but a total dick to an old guy trying to order. Alright this guy that ordered after me got his burrito before I did. And they fucked me and gave me basically all egg and barely any meat. read more

California Burrito -- has asada, guac, and fries, which surprisingly works sooo well! And it comes with a red bell pepper type of sauce, but I did no cheese. Residential but has parking and is across from a mini beach. You can walk to Strand from here. read more

Delicious food! Their avocado toast is yummy and their pancakes are amazing! Super thick and delicious! Looking forward to trying more from here. read more

What a cute little hidden gem in Oceanside. I guess it isn't so hidden since there was a bit of a line each day I went... However, it was worth the wait! We've tried the mocha, matcha, and the avocado toast. All were very good and met expectations. The only thing I would say was that the coffees tasted a little bit different each day. Not in a bad way, just more milky or more mochaish... Definitely worth a stop of over the usual starbs. read more

This Bucaneer Cafe is dreamy with a view of Bucaneer Beach and Bucaneer Park. Delicious lattes. I enjoyed my iced vanilla oat milk latte and staff were incredibly friendly to bring out my drink. There are only a few spots for outdoor seating, so my fam and I took our drinks out and we sat at benches at Bucaneer Beach. We also walked around Bucaneer Park of green grass and side walks which is dog friendly. Love how there is beautiful mural art here and a lake with duckies. Lots of trees, squirrels, and feel good vibes. Oceanside's gem! read more

There was a bit of a mixup with dark toast for my sausage and egg adding a side of dark sourdough toast which they offered to refund but I'm glad I ate it all; very good food. The coffee is very good and a bit strong. The service is excellent. Watch the waves and enjoy! While waiting in line I met a SF CA teacher that went to high school in my MD county. It's a small world. read more

We were camping up in Oceanside and heard about this place. It's a nice spot right across from the beach, and the food was great! We ended up going back the next morning so my parents could try it. read more

Love this cafe!!! There's often a long line, but it's always worth the wait. The food is so good and very filling, the california breakfast burrito is a must-have! It's right across the street from the beach, and the street is always busy with surfers and bikers and people walking their dogs. Service is so friendly, and surprisingly fast considering how many customers they have lined up. We often stop by to grab some breakfast, and it's always a great addition to our day! read more

I've been here in person a couple times. Kind of a nice atmosphere during the day. Little smelly. The food, when it's hot, is good. One of my burritos came out cold(was not worth the price)and the loco moco is average. I tried ordering online and it doesn't have the açaí bowls available for delivery for some reason. The posted phone number does not work either. read more

Good service, great location and awesome food. Beach views salt in the air and good vibes

We always love Buccaneer Cafe right there at bucks Beach with some of the finest coffee this side of the Mexican border. After a good morning session at Buccaneer Beach nothing like leaving the board going over and having a phenomenal breakfast at Buccaneer Cafe. Don't forget you must get there early because they close by noon. You can't go wrong at Buccaneer Cafe for a fresh and healthy breakfast. One of the oldest beach cafes on the water in oceanside. We love the Buccaneer Cafe keep doing what you're doing and we will always be back. read more

So yummy! Love how walkable it is and the breakfast burritos are so good! A little heavy on the bacon but overall so good! read more

Excellent food and coffee. Hate the changes they've made to the seating, very uncomfortable now and hardly worth waiting for....

Super cute little cafe with great breakfast/lunch options right on the beach! The patio seating is so rad that you can eat some nice food or drink a coffee steps from the beach. We got the privateer bowl there was a lot of it! At first when she told me the price I was thought dang that's kinda expensive, but you know they don't skimp on the toppings. Definitely need to come back and try some of the burritos. Check this out! It's a beautiful local gem read more

Great food! Great service! Awesome location! Awesome view of the Pacific ocean across the street.

I love this cafe and have been returning here for years. The menu is great, coffee is great and the service is always the best. There really is no other place like it! It's a hidden gem and highly recommend. They're open steps away from the beach, rain or shine. read more

Very accommodating , a party of 30, they saw our pal. To split tables . Awesome service ! My Chili Verde scramble style was amazing ! Portions are huge! The homemade salsas a a MUST! The pancake dough is the only sort not 100% but it's not fair because I love pancakes and I know my mixes , so pancake is just normal . Overall it's great place, which is why I still have it a 5* . read more

We'd eat here every day if we could. When we first moved to South Oceanside, we'd walk down to Buccaneer Cafe many times a week, order brunch/lunch, and hang out at the beach to breath in the beautiful salty sea air and enjoy the ocean. We continue to go regularly, as it's just a short walk from our home. It's especially great to take a break from work, since we work at home all day. The owner is the BEST!! We've actually had them cater our housewarming party during Thanksgiving week in 2019! All special orders are accommodated with a smile, so we can eat healthy, yummy food that we don't have to prepare ourselves. read more

Food and coffee is fantastic, definitely try out the breakfast taco it's yummy! ( sometimes a long line but worth the wait) also right on the beach? Yeah I'm there read more

Carne asada breakfast burrito is so flavorful with perfect texture of crunch and chewiness. The only reason for 4/5 stars is price point. This place is incredibly expensive for the size of burrito. Also the sauce salsa is more of a bland chipotle. read more

Such a cute little spot next to the ocean. Great coffee and food options: loco moco, burritos, donuts. Lots of picnic tables outside.

Totally blown away with this place! Food was amazing the smoothies were Devine and the service was impeccable and a great local feel! Please don't change a thing buccaneer cafe!
