This was my second time trying Parakeet, and I'm genuinely impressed. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, healthy, and full of flavor, and the presentation was beautiful. I ordered the avocado toast and an açaí bowl. The avocado toast had a little kick to it, but it was delicious. My original plan was to eat half of each... instead, I ended up finishing both! No regrets though--it was satisfying without feeling heavy. I'll definitely be ordering again and look forward to visiting the café in person. There are so many other items I want to try, although I might just end up ordering these two again. Highly recommend if you're looking for fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared food.

The good: - Good quality and flavor The bad: - Where's the protein? Just a few pieces of steak (It's like playing where's Waldo to find it) - Where are the fries? Just a few fries (Do you see them?) - The salsa? Enough for a single dollop I would have said something to the staff, but no one cared. Dirty and un-bussed tables. No one checking in. No napkins or utensils brought to me with my food. Etc... I really wanted to like this place. It was so un-filling for over $20, I had to eat lunch after lunch. Waste of empty tortilla calories and next to no protein. This place has all the opportunity and quality to be a solid go-to. Highly disappointed.

The seating was spacious and comfortable, and the service was great throughout. We tried the goat cheese & spinach quiche, summer salad, crème brûlée, and lemon meringue tart. The quiche was probably my favorite savory item -- super thick and fluffy with a generous piece of goat cheese on top, and the roasted potatoes on the side were really good too. The summer salad was fresh and loaded with smoked salmon, avocado, mango, and pistachios. Definitely save room for dessert. The crème brûlée had that perfect crunchy caramelized top, and the lemon meringue tart was really cute and had a nice balance of tart and sweet. I love the wide variety pastry selection and how pretty everything looks in the display case. Overall, a really nice breakfast spot -- good food, lots of space, great service, and no crazy Sunday morning wait when we went

I am always on the hunt for the best pastries around because after visiting Europe and having pastries there, nothing here in the US compares!

Lofty Coffee is a spot I've been to multiple times now…read more Highlight The coffee is genuinely fantastic especially their beans. You can taste the quality in every cup, and the drinks overall are excellent. That said, my Red light it's really expensive for most people, so it feels more like a treat than an everyday stop. The one area they could improve is the service. The staff sometimes feel a bit rushed and not super helpful, especially if you're new or asking questions about their drinks. They don't always take the time to explain things. To be honest it's more like they just want to take your order and move on to the next customer. I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5. Great drinks and quality beans make it worth visiting, but the higher prices and inconsistent service keep it from being a regular favorite for me. If you love good coffee and don't mind paying a premium with okay service, it's still worth checking out.

The espresso in the cap tasted over extracted, so I didn't really enjoy it. Overall, k didn't like the coffee or the food I had. I would not come again unless they improved. I did like that the wait wasn't TOO bad and they have lots of seating.

The market…read moreitself is pricey if you are shopping for groceries, but they do offer fresh bread from Bread Underground and other specialty snacks and other items I like to take home at the end of my visit. I usually order an iced matcha latte with oat milk and a Sweet Toast inside the market, then when I'm ready I switch to a cup or two of hard kombucha, which always has ingredients plucked from the farm, depending on what is seasonal. Everything is always delicious and delightful. Service at this walk-up coffee area is friendly. There is plenty of seating outside, in the front or back of the open-air market, and lingering for hours is encouraged. I like taking a walk around the perimeter farm while I'm there as well. There is an apothecary and a brewery on the premises, as well as a coffee roasting area. This part of the farm always seems to be closed for a private event, but that just adds to the bustling and community atmosphere. There is a couch area with a fire pit (and one in the back) in addition to the assortment of tables, a huge grass area and a natural (wood) climbing structure for kids to play, and sometimes they have live music there. There are always families and Encinitas locals hanging out and enjoying all that this place has to offer. There is a pizza stall in front of the market, as well as Huerta Tacos stand in back. Hours for these vary depending on the day. Both are not cheap, but the food is fresh and delicious, made with quality ingredients and interesting flavors. I sometimes treat myself to either, depending on who I'm with or what time of day it is. There is also a restaurant upstairs, and I have eaten there once, but prefer coming to hang at the Harvest Market and getting my food and drinks there. I live in the Vista/Carlsbad area, but it is worth the 20-25 minute drive to come hang out here for the afternoon!

You wouldn't know there were beats in it aside from the color, it tastes pretty close to a standard, chickpea hummus. Found inside the harvest market deli cooler with the snacks & drinks near the prepared salads to grab & go items. They have lots of fresh produce, fresh bread, and packaged cracker chip items to purchase and enjoy with it. It was cool creamy and refreshing. I enjoyed it with some fresh artisan bread. Nice filling, healthy snack. The market has a variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, flowers, including edible ones, a small Café with hot and cold, freshly made drinks, including the option of ones with vegan plant milk, as well as a small baked goods case full of vegan cookies and muffins. Nice selection of interesting drinks, including Matcha & Ube. A nice selection of vegan items for sale. This very modern up scale barn is on a spacious property with ample outdoor hard seating, including individual chairs, both metal and wood picnic tables with benches, hardwood Adirondack chairs around a large fire pit in the back. If you prefer soft seating like me, there are only a few on the property, a couch by the outdoor fireplace inside up in the restaurant and balcony. The outdoor pizza kitchen has a variety of made to order cooked in front of you pizzas including vegan (must ask for vegan cheese substitute) or gluten-free egg, white and cauliflower crust. The Cook said most of the pizzas can be made with the vegan cheese. Included a few nice options with pesto sauce, truffle, mushroom, and more. After seeing a few come out out of the oven with the bubbled crust, I'm looking forward to returning and giving one a try. It seemed to be the favorite menu item of the outdoor diners, as the tables were full of them. Parking is on a dirt and gravel stretch so skip the sandals and flip-flops & wear closed toed tennis shoes. There are walking paths around the properties so you can get in a nice stroll before having a nibble and a drink. The path around the property you'll see their crops of produce and flowers growing as well as the animals they have: horses, goats pigs. Upstairs after 4 PM, they have a nice clean-looking modern style restaurant featuring a nice menu with a variety of six vegetarian and one vegan pasta option. The hostess, who claimed she was also vegetarian was quick to point out all the vegetarian options some can be converted to vegan by omitting the cheese or dairy ingredient. There's a nice tall bar upstairs with stools and one TV for watching news or sports. Apparently they have a brunch weekends only with a menu that also looks very inviting. The property has a large selection of bottled wines, a micro brewery and a coffee bean brewery. Family friendly, a nice place to go to get a bite and drink, stretch your legs, enjoy fresh air (although a bit dusty near parking lot). Country music is playing loudly in and around the property. We have an expanse of grass for picnic in a play area that's very natural and organic and appearance and a glass house which opens up onto a hard scape patio available for a private event events. The people were friendly and welcoming. It's a spot of natural plot of country near the coast line in Encinitas.
