    Omelette

    Very friendly service and a wonderful location on the water. Came in and were seated right always with no reservations. Plenty of options to choose from, but the breakfast is my favorite! You can't go wrong getting a crepe here.

    A fantastic spot right by the beach, this charming restaurant offers limited indoor seating. However, why choose indoors when you can enjoy the outdoor seating under the covered patio, with breathtaking views of the oceanfront! The kona coffee paired with the crepes was such a great combo, good mix of sweet and bitterness for a brunch combo. I opted for a crepe featuring the various berries and whipped cream, while my friend opted for the signature burger. Each dish was served promptly and our server accommodated our extra requests for plates and condiments very quickly!

    Amazing food and service! This needs to be on your "do not miss" list for San Clemente. The Berries & Cream Crepe was so delicious! I have been to Paris many times, this was spot on! The day before I had the Chicken Crepe for lunch. I selected the roasted potatoes for my side! Crisp and flavorful, and the roasted chicken was phenomenal. We had the same young man wait on us both times. Very attentive and genuinely friendly. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

    We came here for Sunday brunch a few weekends ago and I have found myself craving the same meal several times since then. There was a long wait for a table but you can put your name and number down and walk across the street to the pier to enjoy the view while you wait. Tables are all outside, simple and they do have some umbrellas for shade. Ben liked his Chicken Apple Sausage and potatoes crepe. I was equally obsessed with both the smoked salmon and the berries and cream crepes. I did not like the cheese filling option for the dessert crepe which I ordered on the side, but Ben did like it. The side of chicken sausage was really good. The side of potatoes was dry.

    Cherry Cheese Blintz Crepe. Delicious!

    Lovely place for a Sunday brunch. The atmosphere was nice. The tables were not too close even though it's a small place. The food was surprisingly great.i had the chorizo scramble with side of avocado. Fresh and delicious. The only thing that topped the atmosphere and the food was the excellent service.

    Breakfast potatoes. Nicely seasoned

    Wonderful French crepe cafe. The Mushroom and Spinach crepe, add bacon, was excellent. They essentially make a French folded omelette and then wrap a crepe around it and top it off with Bechamel sauce (kind of like Alfredo for those who don't know). The Nutella banana crepe was amazing with a generous amount of Nutella inside. I highly recommend paying for the extra berries on top to keep it interesting. The side of nicely seasoned breakfast potatoes rounded out the meal. Outdoor seating right at the oceanfront in the most happening part of town, right by the San Clemente Pier. Usually pretty busy, but they text you when your table is ready, so you can feel free to walk around and enjoy the ocean view while you wait for your table.

    Berries And Cream

    Wicked. Awesome. Crepes. Need I say more? We came to La Gallette for breakfast on our first visit to San Clemente and it earned its place as a must-visit on subsequent visits. Situated across the street from the beach in the Pier Bowl, La Gallette affords views of the water and chill beach activity across the tracks from the pier. It's a beautiful place to sit outside and enjoy a meal with the sights and sounds of San Clemente. I ordered the Berries and Cream with the cream cheese add-on. It's everything you want from a sweet, cream cheese, fruit crepe for breakfast. The slight savoriness of the crepe and its texture complement the smooth creaminess of the sweet cheese filling and bites of fruit perfectly. Every bite is worth stretching out and enjoying. She tried the Shrimp Crepe with potatoes. A very tasty choice. But, the Berries and Cream is transcendent. Service was excellent, conveying the charm of local proprietorship. Everything here has a sense of local touch to it. I highly recommend La Gallette!

    Just leaving a note to say that I showed up here today (11/23/24) to meet a friend and the location seems closed while they pursue a permit to expand into the retail next door. There are no other signs than the two papers posted on the door; there's nothing on their website. Looking in the windows it didn't look like they would be closed, so it's a little weird. There was an older couple coming for brunch that apparently come often that were also confused. Edited to add: we ended up eating next door with a view of the front entry. About 7-8 other groups also stopped in front of the it, all looking very confused. I did see a man come put something else up on the window, but I forgot to look at what it was before we left the area. Oops!

    Nice location by the pier with good food. Bacon Avocado Toast: Awesome! Bacon was perfectly cooked, avocado perfectly seasoned on a nice hearty wheat bread toast. 4 Stars Berries and Cream Crepe: Awesome! Get with the sweet creme, the extra money is worth it. 4 Stars Chicken Apple Sausage Crepe: Good, the flavors were good, but could have used more seasoning. 3 starts.

    I haven't experienced a lot of crepes in my life but was delighted by this little sea side bistro. The service was excellent and the cappuccino was foamy! The crepe omelet was hot and cheese ooozed out of the middle when I cut into it. The crepe was light and perfect. The side of potatoes were cold but still yummy.

    Chicken apple sausage crepe
    Ian C.

    Me and a friend decided to take the beach trail (highly recommended for all the views!) and this small outdoor patio restaurant was around and we decided to get some brunch here! It is pretty small outdoor patio. They do take big parties but I would recommend could with 3 other friends at most. Anyways we sat down immediately and browsed through the menu. They have a lot of options for brunch and their specialty is definitely their crepes but I decided to get a omelette while my friend got the chicken apple sausage and potatoes crepe. The dishes came out fairly fast and we dug in! My omelette came with bacon, spinach, and mushrooms along with sourdough toast. The toast was crispy and the jelly served with it was great. The omelette itself was delicious! My friend shared some of her crepe and I loved the taste of the chicken apple sausage! So good! I do have to note they serve water in small plastic cups but the servers were always around refilling them. Our server(s) were great as well. We didn't really have just one server but all 3 of them were great and paid a lot of attention to us. After a 3.5 mile walk, this place checked all I needed for a brunch meal. Great tasting food, outdoor patio seating, and great service! Would highly recommend coming to this place if you need a brunch fix!

    Patio seating

    Crepes with the view! and what view it is! on my last visit to La Galette creperie the outdoor patio now is expanded, which a huge bonus. I put my name on the list and took a stroll with kids to the beach and watched a surfing competition. A server call me and told that the table is ready, i appreciated that i don't need to stand and wait at the restaurant. The service was spot on, the girl who was our waitress was very attentive and sweet to my kids, accommodated my request for extra banana on a berry crepes. Lets talk about crepes, they are HUGE! Berries and cream crepe is delicious and not overly sweet, my savory egg, spinach and mushroom crepe was phenomenal and so filling, i could only eat half of it. La Galette is the best stop for crepes in San Clemente with incredible coastal views!

    VEGAN avocado toast
    A P.

    Cool spot by the pier and train. Dog-friendly outdoor seating (waitress even gave us water for our pup). Other waiter moved an umbrella to give us shade. Very dope of them. No marked vegan / vegetarian options. When asking he first said "salad" HELL NAHHH BRuh Got the avocado toast instead. Ask for NO bacon, cheese, & egg. Flavor is ok, very lemon-y. It's better w/ hot sauce on it. Not that filling. I hope they add an official vegan option cuz I do like this place. Maybe tofu scramble or roasted potatoes, sautéed mushrooms... just an idea *wink wink* *hint hint* ;) Small warning: parking is a b1tch and the area's PACKED with tourists Heads up: mandatory 18% tip for parties of 6 or more

The night before my dissertation defense, I ordered a 96 oz coffee (joe-to-go) to go with a note saying I was defending my PhD (preemptively apologizing if I looked like a frazzled raccoon and worried anyone on accident while picking up). When I walked in at 7:45 AM (15 min earlier than my pick up time, bc anxiety), the staff immediately complimented my defense outfit -- instant confidence boost -- and when I said I was the person picking up "lots of coffee," they led me to the coffee, already packed and ready :') They all wished me good luck with the warmest, most dazzling smiles. They even included a note that said, "You got this~!" which I kept in front of me during my defense. (see photo) And I passed!!! Also, they gave me half-and-half and oat milk?? In this economy?? Oat milk is basically liquid gold. I felt so loved. So caffeinated. So non-dairy option supported. Usually after defenses, there is leftover coffee that people are trying to give away. But me and High Tide Coffee? No sir. No leftovers. One of my committee members had about 4-5 cups, and I am not exaggerating., (Even in a field that basically runs on coffee, academics are running on caffeine.... and wine, so a room of 12 people, not all drinking coffee, and still finishing 96 oz of coffee is a record.) Thank you, High Tide, for the excellent coffee, the kindness, the emotional support, and the very necessary academic bean juice. I am officially glad I chose you to help caffeinate the most important morning of my PhD. and thank you again for supporting me emotionally and caffeine-induced confidence :)
