Party of 3 for breakfast at cappy's Cafe .we ordered drinks and followed with entrees huevos rancheros were very good 3 eggs over medium, ranchero sauce, Refried beans, on a flour tortilla substituted for the standard corn tortilla. My girlfriend had machaca and our friend had French toast. Everyone cleaned their plate. Server was attentive and frequently offered refills on our drinks as well as clearing the empty plates. read more

Hostess wasn't alert. Escorted us to a table by the doorway, but I politely declined and asked for a booth instead. She said it would be a 10-15 min wait. 5 minutes later, a different hostess called us for a party of 3, which was great BUT then the original hostess pointed to another couple instead and then they were escorted to a booth. Then she escorted yet another couple to a booth. When the hostess called us, she escorted us back to the exact same table that she preciously tried to give us and couldn't remember that we wanted a booth and that she told us to wait for one. S little annoying. The service was fine and the food was tasty. Probably would not go back due to the experience with the hostess. They also did not note to OpenTable that I had arrived for my reservations. read more

Did not have a good experience this time. Our server Christy was not very nice, was pushy and rushing us the entire time. At one point she took our plates away before we were done, turned to the server next to her and said ..."and THAT is how you make money" ... likely referring to turning tables faster since she literally rushed us and took our plates away. We were sat inside and the fans nect to the lights make a strobe effect, it's rather annoying and nauseating. Honestly it should come with a seizure warning. Food was good but honestly overpriced for what you get. Wish the environment and ambiance was better to make up for it. read more

Cinnamon Swirl combo is great and I love the location as it's across from the beach. I had no issue getting seated ASAP on a busy Saturday morning. Pretty much everything on their menu is good and they have many options. The servers were real sweet and checked on us periodically. There's outdoor and indoor dining. Great place to grab food on a beach day. read more

I came here because I had a great experience last time, but definitely not great. The clam chowder is basically corn chowder. We came on a weekday late morning. It wasn't packed at all, but it took forever to get our order. They did have a tasty prime rib sandwich. $25 read more

Cappys Cafe - $26 A plate of chips and Fish "fish & chips" a fry was bigger than the fish portion. So not worth it. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Driven by this place a zillion times, never stopped in until now. Busy place, but they keep things moving. My wife had a prime-rib dip and onion rings. Both were top notch. I had a fajitas omelet, hash browns and toast and mine was very good. I will say, the portions are huge, so if you are an older person or a light eater, consider sharing a meal. We enjoyed it enough that we will return again. read more

The staff was very nice and friendly. We had a table reserved and they were waiting for us when we walked in. The restroom is very nice and clean. The bloody Mary's really good. The fish and chips were very delicious, Quality fish for sure. read more

One of our favorite places in the world!!! My fiancé and I go to Cappy's at least once a month, it's always the best! Great food, great service, great ambiance! So much so that we enjoyed it the morning we got engaged. Cappy's was one of our first dates, I hope we can bring our kids here one day. read more

Wow, we had breakfast here this morning. I was anxious to try the French Cinnamon Roles plate. I generally do not eat cinnamon rolls, but these French ones were FIRE. My first time at Cappys Cafe. Nice spot here in the Newport Beach area. I live not too far from here, so they might be a regular breakfast for me now. read more

Brunch was delicious! And very filling! The home style fries were very good and I liked the Parmesan on top! Country fried steak had really good gravy on top! My bf liked the omelet but he said the steak could use more seasoning, the guac was very tasty. read more

The Restaurant was very busy and filled with local young families on the Saturday morning that we visited. When a restaurant is crowded that's usually a good sign. In this case, it was true to form. Service was impeccable, with tons of smiles, and good cheer. The wife had a huge crab meat omelette and had to take half of it home because she couldn't finish. Made for tasty leftovers the next morning. I had basic breakfast with pancakes, sausage, and scrambled eggs. Just like mama used to make! Ample parking with a security guard directing traffic. First time here to this hidden gym. Trust me, I'll be going back. read more

Cozy and inviting small cafe. Servers are nice and fast. Food was fresh to order and delicious. Son ordered pancakes which were huge! Half order would be fine for a kid. Daughter ordered cinnamon roll French toast which was a delight. I ordered the sausage skillet with hash browns that hit the spot. The sourdough was flavorful, chewy with a nice crunch. read more

While on our staycation at Marriott's Newport Coastal Villas we went to a Cafe that was suggested to us called Cappys and it was delightful. The menu had so many different food options and the service provided was excellent and the ambiance was charming and friendly. We had the same dish except I had sausages patties and English muffins and my husband went for bacon and instead of toast he had biscuits and gravy yummy I also enjoyed a glass of Mimosa with strawberry . This place is so like that good comfort food your Mama made We will definitely be back again! read more

Always a great meal, service excellent. Parking can be congested at times. Nice drive up or down PCH.

The food and service was absolutely fantastic as well as delicious :) the waitresses and staff were very friendly and helpful with their time. read more

I think I'm going to start adventure Wednesdays since getting them off but anyways enough about me let's talk about Cappys! Me, my sister, and my nephew decided to drive down here for brunch. Located on the PCH, when you do arrive just know its a quick right turn into the parking lot. Plenty of parking spaces too. We walk in and was sat immediately by our hostess. Unfortunately didn't take a picture of the menu this time around since I was starving lol. The menu is pretty extensive and their staples are noted by an anchor on the item. I opted to get the Corn Beef Hash while my sister ordered the Hamburger Steak and eggs. She decided to get it medium well. Our order took about 10 minutes or so but the first impression of the corn beef hash was it looked absolutely delicious! What I notice with the corn beef itself is the top looked crispy. My first bite into it, it really was! The corn beef along with the grilled veggies was absolutely delicious and succulent. There was some thicker pieces as well. My scrambled eggs were good but unfortunately my hash browns came out kind of cold. The sourdough toast was good as well! Crispy and with butter on it, it paired well with the jam packets. My sisters hamburgers steak was okay. It came out more well done if anything so the steak was hard to eat. The homefries though were delicious and my nephew ate those like hotcakes. Our server checked on us constantly and filled our water. Our hostess helped checked us out as well and brought a box over when requested. Both were great! The overall restaurant is pretty spacious and they have a good 80s playlist going while you eat. Plenty of tables around as well as round booths so they can sit bigger parties if you do go with a bigger group. Overall the food here is good. Some stuff came out cold and what not but overall it's just a minor complaint. With good service and a solid corn beef hash, definitely check this place out if you are in the area. Get your brunch fix going! read more

This is a well known spot on the coast. I wanted to try it and it was before heading out to the airport. The service was very good and attentive which is a plus. The food was just average and nothing worth praising. I ha ld a meat lovers omelet and as I said, it was just ok - not bad but not great. If you just want to get a breakfast that is enough to tide you over or fill your stomach then check it out. If you want something more tasty and more of an experience - I would find something else. read more

Cappy's Cafe is on PCH in Newport Beach near Superior. Its an institution in the area known for their bfasts, burgers and good times. I had just returned from vacay, so I wanted to eat healthy and ordered a salad. The salad was ok, but I definitely ordered the wrong thing, although it was lunch time. My golf buddies ordered omelets, and they were massive. I won't that mistake next time. The ambiance is open air, and we sat outside on a hot summer day. There is inside seating also, and they serve beer & wine. Not surprisingly, the service was friendly & warm. If you are in the area, you definitely need to hit up Cappy's. Its emblematic of the laid back beach culture with its hearty portions, relaxed ambiance and friendly service. read more

Cappys Cafe - House salad ($10) w/ grilled chicken ($6) - good, but small portion - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Newport Beach, California

I've been following this restaurant on Instagram maybe a year and I've been wanting to go but it's an hours drive from where we live. For my birthday my husband paid for a beautiful hotel in Newport Beach and the next morning. I finally asked to come here. the inside is nice, they were very crowded. The service was great and we both liked what we ordered. It was so nice. I actually asked my husband if we could come back for Easter. Problem is waking up in the morning and doing an hour drive before breakfast but if you're in the area, I highly recommend it. read more

Very quite low key. Pets allowed on patio. Service was good and food very good. The atmosphere was very welcoming.

I visited my parents last week and they couldn't stop raving about this place. I was nervous because we got their a little after 1 and they closed at 2, I really didn't want to be that customer who goes in with a larger party but they were SO friendly and welcoming. They were beyond attentive, people even came after us and they still serviced them. There's lots of seating and my oh my the food is AMAZING. I would definitely go back! read more

Mmm those French toast cinnamon rolls were BOMB. I think these are the best cinnamon rolls in OC hands down. Obviously they aren't like your classic Cinnabon experience, but the mashup between French toast and cinnamon buns is amazing. Would recommend - the portion sizes are big too! read more

Cappy's Cafe is one of my go-to brunch place after a hike in Newport Beach CA. Always enjoy their food and now, they have an outdoor patio so we can come and enjoy brunch with our furbaby dog. The weather was nice when we went so the outdoor patio was perfect to dine in. Service is great but food takes a while to come out. But don't worry, the wait would be worth it because their food is all very good. I am a Benny girl so I always order one of their eggs Benedict dishes. It's delicious! Parking could be a challenge if you are not patient to wait for a spot to open up but the turnaround of their customers is pretty quick so just be patient if you didn't see a parking space open. read more

The atmosphere was definitely a highlight--super cute and cozy. It's the kind of place you'd want to sit and chat for a while. Service was excellent from start to finish. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Our server checked in regularly without being overbearing, and everything arrived in a timely manner. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the setting. While the menu looked promising, the flavors fell flat. Most of the dishes we tried were bland and underseasoned, lacking that spark that would make us eager to come back. It's not that the food was bad--it was just underwhelming. Overall, it's a great spot for a relaxed outing, especially if you're looking for great service and a nice vibe! read more

Let me make this clear. I was dropped off with my walker at the patio. Your hostess was seeing someone on the patio. She saw me she asked if I would like a table on the patio or inside. I asked her for the patio. She then said OK give me a minute. I need to clear a few tables and went inside, she then came back out in a few minutes cleared the tables off, then looked at me and said no you need to walk inside and give us your name. There are a few people ahead of you now. Not a good experience not one I want to repeat not one I will repeat. read more

Good Breakfast Joint, Newport Beach CA I noticed this blue building while driving along the West Coast Hwy in Newport Beach... we were on our way to another restaurant further away. We decided to make a U-turn and dine here at Cappy's Cafe instead. There was a little bit of a wait but not too bad. The diner was busy and bustling on a Monday. I ordered a New York Steak & Eggs. The meat was a tad bit tough, I dunno, maybe it's the cut and it might have been naturally tough to begin with. The hashbrown was cooked the way I liked it. The eggs were good. Hubby had a classic eggs and bacon. Generous portions. Unfortunately, our server was okay but not too friendly. Maybe she was tired... even the busboy was friendlier and said bye to us, wished us a nice day. Oh well... Limited parking on a one way parking lot. Review #2975 read more

January 31st was my son's birthday and I told him breakfast was his choice. He immediately said "Cappy's Cafe" and so we went. I ordered my standard Country Fried Steak and Eggs, which was delicious as usual. My son ordered the Crab Benedict instead of the Corned Beef Hash and Eggs, which he thoroughly and enthusiastically finished off in record time and Jackie our waitress was friendly and efficient. We love Cappy's as it is a perfect diner. read more
