When I visit I usually order a Breve Latte and their incredible Spinach, Tomato and Feta Croissant! I can also heartily recommend the Banana Cream Pie and Meatball Sandwich! My son enjoyed their BearClaw. The plain croissants could be bigger for the price. Personally, I would skip the scones. They look pretty but I've tried all the different flavors over the last few years and they left me underwhelmed. Scones are always best freshly baked, right out of the oven.

The eggs were fluffy and creamy, the pastries were perfectly flaky, and every bite tasted fresh and homemade. The strawberry scone and almond croissant were especially delicious! I had a lovely tea and cappuccino while sitting on the cute patio area, which was spacious, relaxing, and very walkable to the beach. The service was wonderful too -- the ladies working there were so friendly and welcoming, and they had great music playing that made the whole atmosphere feel cozy and happy. You can really tell this place is locally owned and made with a lot of love. While we were in line looking over the menu, the staff greeted several customers by name and already knew their orders, which made it feel like such a genuine community favorite. Everything was top-notch -- 10/10, would absolutely recommend if you're visiting Cayucos!

Waited an hour for a table only to see other parties who showed up later than us being seated before us. We had a party of 7 and the food was well below average. We've eaten at Robins last year and have patronized their sister restaurants many times over the last 15 years. This time was extremely disappointing. I ordered the lamb burrito and even though the flavor was good, it was pure rice with maybe 3 small pieces of lamb and zero potatoes. My wife's and daughter's chicken sandwiches were flavorless and the bread was soggy. Sloppy service and bad food made it a waste of time to go well out of our way to eat at Robin's. I literally can't believe this after the awesome experience we had here last summer. I would never think this was the same restaurant.

The fam and i were in monterey for the weekend and stumbled upon the village for a quick pit stop…read moreand who would have known we would have found this gem. I walked along the outside glass and saw that they had tito's vodka and liquor 43 so i decided to look @ the menu and boom there it was, a carajillo. For those who don't know it's pretty much the mother or father of the espresso martini and been around forever in latin american countries and throughout Spain, which consists of Liquor 43 x Espresso, shaken up generously and served over ice. I forget the girls names but they were so welcoming and had a bright smile from helping us and whoever else came in during the time we were there. The barista whipped up one the best carajillo i've had stateside which is rare because you can't really find them around here since most places don't carry liquor 43. A true treat. 10//10 would recommend. Mind you it was 9:40am Cheers.

I wish I could give a high rating because the pastries were excellent, especially the fig danish,…read morewhich was so good that I came back the very next day. Unfortunately, my second visit left me feeling violated and unwelcome. I ordered an apricot danish and a cappuccino with oat milk. The coffee didn't taste quite right to me, so I politely asked the barista if I could have a little more oat milk added. I was told that I would have to be charged for a latte because adding more milk would change the drink ratio. I explained that I only wanted a small amount, not enough to turn it into a latte, but the request was still refused. What bothered me most was the next interaction with the same barista. I saw the self-service milk containers at the condiment station and mentioned that I would just add some myself, but they were empty. The barista said: "It's the same thing, I will have to charge you." When I asked what those complimentary milk condiments were for, the barista responded, "Those are for other people." As a paying customer (coffee and pastries), hearing that felt upsetting and dismissive. I left feeling embarrassed, singled-out and unwelcome over what should have been a simple customer service interaction for such a small request. I wish the owners would rectify the situation. The pastries were wonderful, but the customer service experience unfortunately overshadowed the visit. I would NEVER recommend this place to any of my friends nor family.

I've been coming to Cambria Coffee for years, and somehow they've managed to pull off the…read moreimpossible--they've never let me down. In a world where restaurants and coffee shops can be wildly inconsistent, this place just keeps showing up and doing what it does best. My go-to is always the Baja Mocha. At this point, it's less of a coffee order and more of a long-term relationship. It's rich, smooth, perfectly balanced, and just spicy enough to keep things interesting. Every time I tell myself I should try something different, the Baja Mocha gives me that "Don't be ridiculous" look, and I happily order it again. A visit also isn't complete without grabbing a pound of whole beans to take home. That way, I can continue pretending my kitchen is a quaint little coffee shop instead of just... my kitchen. The café itself has a ton of character. It's on the cozy side, which means it can fill up quickly, especially during busy times. If you're looking for acres of seating and total silence, this probably isn't your spot. But if you're looking for exceptional coffee, a welcoming atmosphere, and a place that feels like a true local favorite, you'll understand why people keep coming back. The staff is always entertaining in the best possible way. They're friendly, have personality, and somehow manage to keep things moving even when the place is buzzing. It's the kind of coffee shop where the people behind the counter seem like they're genuinely enjoying themselves, and that energy rubs off on everyone else. If you're passing through Cambria or lucky enough to live nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in. Just don't blame me when the Baja Mocha becomes your default order too. I tried branching out once... the Baja Mocha and I worked through it.

Small cafe gets very overwhelming on weekends. We stopped here on the way to Hearst Castle, wanted…read moreto grab a quick coffee and pastry, but the experience was disappointing. 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.

While in Cambria, CA, taking in the sights and sounds, I heard good things about Linn's pies. And I…read moredo luv me some pie. So off we went to Linn's Easy As Pie Cafe. Just look for the building with the whimsical cartoonish pie statue out front. Darn cute! So many pie flavor choices. Slices, mini pies or whole pies. Sweet or savory. Plus the cafe menu includes sandwiches, wraps, panini's, salads, soup, stews, comfort food entrees, and hot dogs. The young man working the counter was fantastic. Sincerely friendly.welcoming, extremely helpful, and knowledgeable about the menu. Provided great recommendations. We ordered a hot dog $10. All beef. It was split grilled served with side of potato salad. And a slice of olallieberry pie $7. The dog had a nice quality snap, good flavor. The potato salad for me was just ok. The pie was heavenly. Perfect thickness of crust; it was dense, flaky and tender all around yummy. My tastebuds were doing a happy dance! The cafe has a charming farmhouse interior. The cafe interior tables were fitted with plastic table cloths. Not a fan of those. The back patio was super cute. The area is compact. Gorgeous flowers and plants all lushly thriving and blooming. Whimsical metal sculpture art . Water fountains that gave off a calming trickling water sound. The windmill structure was pretty cool. Dual purpose of up cycle art and patio cover. Almost every table had a huge umbrella providing shade. Next to the back patio are the restrooms housed in its own stand alone building. Could use a refresh. There are a few spots in the car lot in the back. But the lot is tiny and hard to maneuver about for larger vehicles.

We sat in the outside garden patio area on a lovely late spring day. It was perfect. The service was friendly and yes it can take a little long, but it's a small shop with one guy doling out the pies, so be patient , it's worth it.

The prices here felt very reasonable, especially compared to some of the other bakeries near…read moredowntown that we found overpriced and underwhelming. For pastries, we tried the cinnamon roll, a fruit brioche/danish, and the Dubai strawberry bun. The cinnamon roll was amazing--easily the highlight among the pastries. The fruit brioche was fine, but probably something I would skip next time. The Dubai strawberry bun was nicely done and pleasantly balanced, not overly sweet. For savory items, we ordered the Pepp & Gather pizza and the Brekkie Sando. Definitely get the pizza. It was simple but incredibly satisfying. The Brekkie Sando was also very filling, and the egg was cooked perfectly. The only odd part was the wait. We arrived around lunchtime, and apparently the chef had stepped out, so we ended up waiting about 20 minutes for the food. It felt a little strange during such a busy hour, but thankfully the food made up for it. In short, one of the better bakery and café experiences we had in the area.

When we mentioned it, we were told that's how it's prepared, but they did replace the dish. Unfortunately, the replacement tasted the same. The salad itself was fresh and good, but the salmon had a flavor that seemed off. It's disappointing because the restaurant is in such a beautiful location, and we were expecting a much better dining experience.
