    Ebelskivers with sausage
    Michelle S.

    We had breakfast here this morning and being Danish I was excited to see they had ebelskivers on the menu. They were nothing like ebelskivers. These were more like greasy old fashioned donuts with a very dense, doughy center that were fried in old oil. I could barely eat one. The sausage patties that came with it were dry, hard hockey pucks. I was sawing for days to cut it. The coffee was very weak. My husband's garden omelette with home fries were good though. And our server was very pleasant. The outdoor seating area was nice and the bathroom was clean.

    These are the applesauce pancakes.  Very disappointing.  We couldn't eat them

    As a local resident we used to eat at creekside often. My husband loves the applesauce pancakes. I ordered pancakes to go and when I got home I was surprised when I opened the box. The pancakes were so flimsy and burnt and tiny. These are not the applesauce pancakes we remember. The pancakes were also undercooked. I feel so bad recommending these to our air bnb guests the day prior to me getting these. Really disappointed! Quality has gone down.

    The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. The outside has a nice garden. Our waiter and the staff was very nice and friendly. We received our food quick and hot. My wife enjoyed her egg sandwich. My Denver omelette was good. It just had too much tomato. Next time I'll ask for light tomato. Some of the country potatoes were overcooked and hard. I just moved those aside. Overall we were happy with our meals. Thank you for your friendliness and serving us!

    eggs sausage potatoes and biscuits and gravy.  enough for 3 people. very good.

    Must get the pancakes!! Food was delicious, service was amazing, and the ambiance was wholesome and relaxing. Perfect little spot to grab brunch! Also very dog friendly!

    Quick and friendly service - and so good!! We arrived at 7:15am so we could make our 9am reservation for Hearst Castle. We were finished by 8am! We ordered the omelette and the two egg breakfast. Super! Bacon and potatoes ordered extra crispy plus basted eggs - so good !! I ordered

    Black coffee, just plain good old fashioned coffee

    Love, love, love this place. There are plenty of breakfast spots in Cambria, but none like this one. The food is yummy, they have good coffee (nothing fancy but we are coffee snobs and we enjoyed it) and the service is amazing.

    They offer water for your dog.

    Nice little place to enjoy a good breakfast or whatever you're feeling. The wait was a bit probably because I was in a corner spot and there was a a big party in front of me and most were standing up because they didn't have enough sitting for their party. But other than that the patio outside was nice with some cool air to beat the heat where you're from.

    Mexican pizza with fried eggs.
    Tony A.

    We stumbled across this little gem while shopping in downtown Cambria. It was a cold, foggy day. Walking in we were greeted with a warm restaurant, friendly staff, and fun holiday music playing. I had the French dip and fries. The sandwich was excellent. It was served HOT, with warm au jous and hot French fries. My honey had a 1/2 Mexican pizza. She said it was also excellent. She loved it. The food was so good we went back for breakfast the next day. Again, she ordered the 1/2 Mexican pizza with an egg on the side. I had the breakfast special, the chicken fried steak. Yep, again, incredible!! Another favorite of ours in Cambria. We'll be back!!

    Hash breakfast
    Bre R.

    We have eaten breakfast here twice midweek. It's chilly outside but cute. SUPER corned beef hash !! Their home style potatoes are good. Second visit our food & coffee weren't real warm. Inside is cozy. Busier dining room that day. Biscuits were cool on a cool plate & hot gravy cooled off fast. We wanted to try the famous apricot French toast. Next time. Service is very friendly, maybe they have trouble keeping up when it's busy.

    My turkey sandwich. Yum!
    Carina E.

    A restaurant that is located in the small square of parking spots and surrounded by a cute shops and another dining option. The wait staff were very friendly and served us quickly. The food was fresh and hot! I got the turkey supreme and hubby, the avocado sandwich. Both super yum!

I've done some comparison shopping in recent weeks, and the cafe wins every time. One place in town prepares "country potatoes" as large cubes of potato with no seasoning. Cambria Cafe cooks prepare them as small cubes, seasoned and fried exactly as I like (I can't define the spice combination, but I like it). My scrambled eggs are never dry or runny, and hash browns invariably have just the right crisp texture. They also serve really good coffee, something which most restaurants can't seem to manage. This morning I tried their chicken-fried steak for the first time, and it was as good as my wife's, which is saying something. The ambiance is what I'd expect from a small local cafe, comfortable, but not extraordinary. I'll continue to patronize "my" cafe as long as they'll have me.

The service was not very efficient with the crowd. The barista asked many questions (decaf or regular, oat milk, whole milk, 2%, almond milk, which coffee bean, etc.), which made the line move very slowly. She also had to stop taking orders halfway to make drinks, making the long line to get even longer. There wasn't enough seating, so we decided to take our food to go. They can't help warm up our pastries and directed us to use the microwave and toaster oven ourselves. For the price of the pastries I paid, I expected better service rather than DIY. When the coffee was ready, they did call names but the place was so crowded, we all had to wait outside of the cafe. So many of customers had to come in and out several times to check on their orders. The coffee was also extremely hot and not drinkable right away. Overall slow service, crowded environment, messy flow. I wouldn't come back.

The potatoes were cooked well -- not crispy, but lightly done and comforting. The coffee was a standard dark roast served in a thick diner mug, exactly how a good diner coffee should be. There's plenty of parking, plus both indoor and outdoor seating. They have heaters all around, which is perfect since it can get chilly in Cambria.

There is ample parking in the lot. They get busy on weekdays around 8:30-9:00, so if you can go for breakfast between 7:00-8:30, they will be less crowded. On our visit for breakfast on a Tuesday/Wednesday around 8:30 service was a little slow to get our order in. The food came out at a moderate, but not fast pace. We got a mimosa, classic eggs Benedict with hash browns and fruit. The eggs Benedict was a bit runny, the muffin was not too tough and not too soaked, the amount of ham was a bit light on one of the two, and the sauce had a good flavor. The mimosa was about standard. The menu has a good selection with a number of other items to choose from. We would come back here, but it is just ok and not stellar. For example, Broken Yolk consistently makes a better eggs Benedict than RC does. Overall, we would recommend giving them a try if in town. You will get a good, but not a stellar meal here.
