It took 30 minutes to be seated and it took 30 minutes for the food to be served and when it arrived, it was the wrong order! It took another 30 minutes for the right order to come. We will not be back here. read more

This restaurant has beautiful decor and ambience. The food was presented beautifully and tasted amazing, but a bit of a small portion for the price. I got the honey lavender crepe and frittata, both were great. I would give this restaurant 5 stars for just the food. However it fell short on service as the waitresses didn't seem very attentive and in no rush to serve guests. A bit sloppy in my opinion. It did not fit the standards that seemed to be presented by the upscale ambience and menu. The thing that put a bad taste in my mouth was at the end of the meal, our check was showed to us on a small screen where we had to click on a tip option right in front of the server as they were holding the small POS device. I am not a fan of this new system at all. Sit down restaurants have traditionally always left a paper check on the table, where guests are not pressured to immediately enter gratuity amount while the server is awkwardly standing right there holding the screen. Apparently this is a newer thing and I think it really downgrades the fine dining experience. read more

10/10 from service to food. The ambiance was laidback but not too casual. My wife and I visited with our local friends who had been several times before. This will be a place we will always ask to come back to when visiting Coronado. Get the Parmesan and garlic fries, trust me. But also order one of everything on the menu, because it all looks good. read more

Although servers and staff were great the food was really subpar. Harvest quiche - 3/5 Iced Vietnamese coffee- 1/5 not good at all Bistro burger - 1/5 so dry and really lacked flavor. Iced Mexican mocha - 3/5 just ok. read more

I can't say enough good things about Clayton's Bakery & Bistro! From the coffee to the breakfast food to the pastries, everything was amazing. I had the iced Honey Cinnamon Latte with Pat milk and loved it. It wasn't too sweet and was very smooth. I also ordered the Tomato, Spinach and Parmesan sandwich on an Everything Bagel. The bagel was one of the best I've ever had. I asked for hot sauce to add to my sandwich and they gave me a yummy, spicy homemade sauce on the side. My favorite thing we had was probably the sticky bun with strawberries and cream cheese frosting. Probably the best cinnamon roll/sticky bun I've ever had - crisp and crunchy on the outside and soft and flaky on the inside. The food all tastes thoughtfully crafted and scratch made. I'm already thinking of what other tasty treats I want to try on my next visit. read more

We were out on a little vacation when I found this little gem on Yelp. Super cute place and the food was delicious! It can get busy so expect a little bit of a wait. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Service was great! We will be back when we are in town again. read more

We used to love Clayton's, today was our first visit since they switched to sit down to order. It was such a let down. The food was delicious, but the service was subpar. It felt crowded and chaotic. Our coffee came out after our food. Our server never put in my husband's French press order. Our friend was over charged for an extra side of fruit we didn't receive, but without the ability to review the check we didn't see it until we were in the car. I also mentioned to the barista our poor service, she rolled her eyes and said ok. We much prefer the ability to order at the counter and find our own seat. Not sure if we will return anytime soon. 3 stars because the food is still really good. read more

My husband and I had breakfast here this morning. Not a traditional breakfast menu but the food was really good. I had the Midnight Matcha to start and it was delicious. The service wasn't great. I asked two people for extra powder sugar and it took about ten minutes to finally arrive. I ordered the Dutch Baby Pancake and it was perfect. Our server never checked on us after someone else brought the food and it wasn't until we were ready to pay that she finally came to our table. My husband wanted waffles or eggs Benedict but neither was on the menu so he had tomato soup. It says it comes with bread and butter but there was none just a thin cracker on top of the bowl. This place is probably better when not working busy. The ambiance was great. read more

A charming and delicious cafe with wonderful service!! Definitely recommend coming here if you're on Coronado Island. The servers were so accommodating with my modifications to my order. And great at explaining the food items. I got a veggie sandwich on everything croissant and it was SO good. My brother got a breakfast burrito that was good and filling, but said was a little dry and needed some sauce/salsa. The house made raspberry donut holes are a must to end your meal with a sweet treat! read more

This has to be my favorite place for breakfast in California. The quiche was very good (I recommend the winter quiche or the Dutch baby) and the quiche really made me fall in love with French food again. The restaurant is a hole in the wall very very cozy ambiance. Our server Tanya and Jaden were very nice, and since it was pouring rain outside Tanya let us move inside. Love to come back. read more

The service was horrible and the food was greasy and nasty. I've never wanted to throw up right after a meal. My wife ordered a burger with 0 flavor and no sauce, and my sandwich was cheesy and greasy. $21 wasted on a burger. McDonald's would've been way better!!! They totally forgot we even ordered. If they wanna seat you outside, don't bother. They may forget you too. Cute plates and dishes though. If you could afford a bunch of le creuset ware, then maybe get better chefs and staff. read more

Amazing fresh French Bakery Huge portion sizes on incredible croissant. Had beignet and bacon and egg croissant. Fantastic. My Number one one spot in Coronado Loved it. read more

when I walked into the bakery I was amazed! The French song in the background was everything! The nice young lady was very kind! However, I wasn't very impressed by the young man's attitude. He seemed annoyed when I was speaking to him. When it was time to pay my boyfriend wanted to try a card that was given to him. when it didn't work because it didn't have a chip the worker said "I can't take this card" in the most sassy attitude ever. I was like calm down, we got cash with us. I work in customer service and the best thing to say is "Sorry ma'am this card does not work, do you have another form of payment" because the way he said it made me feel like he thinks I can't pay for my food. The tone really matters in customer service. read more

Food and aesthetics are really cute here. The food is very good. I got the croissant sandwich which was very filling for me. My boyfriend really like his, however, he thought his potatoes were very dry like over cooked. But the rest is fine. The lavender honey latte was amazing, I would come again for that drink. The cinnamon honey latte was more on the watery side, no subtle flavor. The place overall was clean and quick service. read more

This place was a delight. We were in town for a water polo tournament and decided to grab something while we waited for the games to begin to Coronado High School. LOCATION: located on one of the main streets. It is small but has seating in the front, inside, and back. MENU: Ton of items to pick from. We enjoyed both the madame croque and German pancakes were our favorite. SERVICE: Service was good. Nothing over the top but good enough for us to enjoy our visit. Looking forward to returning for those scrumdidilyumptious German pancakes with lemon custard and delicious berries! read more

I had a pleasure breakfast. The croissant was delicious, I was expecting a regular croissant but the fontina and the really hot sauce made a huge difference. The attendant was checking on me, he actually offered the sauce. I didn't ask for it, because I assumed they didn't used on this cuisine. Thanks read more

OMG-- the most beautiful bakery ever! Makes me want to buy everything in it--not just the gorgeous baked goods but all the beautiful stuff they sell! They are a bit on the pricier side, but worth it for the ambiance and artistically decorated baked goods. read more

I come here today with my family to a breakfast, and funny thing I was just here four days ago and I love it. But unfortunately today I have ordered a breakfast , my eggs come completely raw the rash potatoes was raw the bacon was completely burned in black. So the waiter come and ask what's wrong I explain to him, he look at me and said "well that's what you ordered" At that point I took a breath because maybe he doesn't have a good day, he trows the food at the trash and walk away without asking me if I want eat something else. I called another waiter for a manager and she told me that was not manager there. A feel minutes later a another person comes and take care of the situation and I order another food that was a chicken waffle that I normally order there, and like 20 min later my food arrived and the chicken was raw looking very greasy as well. So completely disappointed today with the way me and my family have been treated here today, except for that lady who was the only one trying to help. So disappointed. read more

Their chocolate chip cookies brought me back. They are the best cookies ever! I tried a few new items. Their cheddar jalepeno sourdough was delicious. Now the bad. I got a carrot cake and red velvet cupcake. They were soo dry and stale. My boyfriend and I had to so spit them out, they were inedible. read more

Food is flavorful. Good service. There is a limited amount of space for groups of people wanting to sit together but it's a nice place.

Super cute & quaint restaurant. My yummy breakfast was accompanied by superior service from Lindsay! I was able to find street parking, but they have a few spots behind the restaurant as well. You order at the counter and they will bring your order to your table. I opted to sit outside at a back table so that I could have a quiet workspace. There's no wifi, so have your hotspot ready or bring a book to enjoy the ambience and experience. read more

Went here with high hopes after eating at Clayton's up the road and finding out they are the same owner. Super disappointed, the avocado toast had no flavor, very bland. Service was extremely slow, asked multiple times for sugar for coffee, (it was requested at time of placing order) Also had to ask for utensils and by the time they arrived food was cold. read more

Excited about a new brekky place on island. Just went by with my husband for a quick breakfast. It was pretty empty before 9am but by time we left around 10am, the place was full. The service was excellent. It did take a while to get the check but I like that they weren't rushing us out the door. The food was delicious. I got the mushroom, thyme, goat cheese frittata. It was good but not sure I would get again. The menu has a bunch of great options. My husband got the croquet madam sandwich. It was delicious but definitely too much for me. I did see a croissant sandwich come out of the kitchen and I definitely will get one of those next. I had a cappuccino which was delicious but did make the crowded restaurant a bit more toasty than I would've liked. My husband had the iced lavender Vietnamese coffee. It was good but there are so many options I can't wait to try other offerings. The table water is room temp and you need to ask for iced but it's crushed ice which is the best. We got a monkey bread to-go and I think it would be better if it was a bit warm but you can't have bad monkey bread. read more
