    Turkey & Brie Sandwich with Side Salad
    Jon N.

    We were looking for a good spot to grab lunch and the reviews for this place got us. When we walked in on a chilly afternoon and there were two tables pulled together as a table set for six available in an otherwise full restaurant. The woman at the counter finished making a couple of lattes (that looked pretty nice) and then turned to us. She told us it would be a 10-15 minute wait. Huh? Why not split the two tables?? Anyway, we decided to sit outside. From there, it got better. Our server was very nice, although she wasn't well aquainted with the menu. My wife got the Chile Verde Omelette, and I had the Turkey and Brie but on Rye. Both were good, but nothing special. Sandwich was too light on protein for me. There are many other options in Solvang, so it's not a place we'd return to when in town, but it's okay.

    Was in Solvang for a medical appointment and decided to have breakfast at Leo's Cafe. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, it came with hashbrowns. It was acceptable but not memorable. The ambiance was what earned the stars.

    We came here on a quick trip to Solvang and saw the reviews on Yelp and thought we'd try it. Being on more of a Keto lifestyle, they were very accommodating and the food was great! I ordered the omelette-- filled with ham and Gruyère cheese-- it was delicious! My husband ordered the chili verde omelette and it was so fantastic that we stopped by a couple of days later to have it again! It was so big we split it They also bring foamed milk and a biscotti with you coffee! Yum! This little restaurant isn't in the tourist part of Solvang, but it is close. Nice atmosphere, clean and fresh, and they have a nice patio area where we brought our dogs on our 2nd day there. Definitely a favorite now and we'll continue to frequent it when we're in the area!

    Great food, good service, very nice and comfortable ambiance. I loved this little gem; it feels cozy and clean. We got the BLT Eggs Benedict, French Toast and Eggs and a Wagyu Burger which was very tasty. I definitely recommend this place if you're in the Solvang. Our server Arianna was very attentive

    Chorizo omelette
    Sarah T.

    Came here for the shakshuka. It was a fine eat, but It is more Italian flavor than middle eastern, including a tomato base reminiscent of pasta sauce and capers. The eggs were cooked nicely and bread was good. It's just not the style of shakshuka I prefer Hubby got a chorizo omelette and said the meat was good quality

    French toast, eggs Benedict, vanilla lattes

    Eddie was our server, he was excellent! Food was classic style breakfast. We got the French toast and bacon eggs Benedict, both good. We sat outside with our dog. Nice shaded patio.

    French toast

    Everything about this place is awesome! The service was great, so friendly and welcoming! The place itself is charming but all of that is second to the food!

    $1.00 for a side of ranch everything was overpriced.

    This is a great cafe. Located close to the center of town, amongst many other shops and…read morerestaurants. It can be busy - an attestation to the great coffee, food, bread, and pastries here. Despite the thick crowd, the friendly and helpful staff keep the line moving along. There's a fair amount of comfortable seating and tables. The coffee shop is charmingly decorated with warm wood tones and artwork from a local artist (shout-out to Pavolv Art Gallery). I wasn't able to participate, but it appears that they make fresh bread here and even host bread-making workshops. They also have Whale Bird kombucha on tap and you can purchase a growler too! I was grateful to find a welcoming spot to grab high-quality coffee and savory and sweet breakfast options while visiting! Will definitely be back if/when I visit again.

I also really appreciated that they have a wheelchair-accessible ramp. There are no TVs, which honestly adds to the peaceful vibe and makes it feel like a place where you can just slow down, enjoy your coffee, and be present. We ordered a lemonade and a vanilla latte, and both were amazing! The vanilla latte was especially delicious. Great drinks, great service, and such a relaxing atmosphere. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back!

    My family and I knew that it was a must to stop into a Danish bakery while in Solvang and…read moreMortensen's was first! Mortensen's is a landmark in Solvang, the building is huge and they even have nice lawn area where you can sit and enjoy your treats! We ordered an assortment of cookies, an Almond Croissant, Cheese Danish and a Pistachio Bar. There were so many pastries to choose from - we had a hard time walking away and not buying one of everything! They had tubs of Danish Butter Cookies and massive Danish Kringles! They also had plenty of seating inside as well! I loved seeing all of the Spring and Easter decorations throughout - it was a very welcoming atmosphere! Staff were also friendly and gave recommendations! I would definitely come back and visit Mortensen's the next time I am in Solvang! Check them out!

As the others, my mom (Hispanic) went to go take a look as well, and stood in line patiently while other familes ordered. One of the managers (very tall white lady with blonde hair) started asking my mom in a very annoyed manner "Are you ready to order or what?" and my mom had said "Oh not yet im just looking at the moment," but some how that didn't register with this worker, as she look at her other associate and rolled her eyes, side eyeing my mom. They were unprofessional with how they treated customers, more importantly my mom, and didn't have any patience for those who were viewing the menu. If you're coming to solvang, go to Birkholm Bakery instead, they're much more welcoming and friendly to visitors
