Cute, classic diner vibes. This place has been around for decades and it looks like it has never been redone, but in a really charming and nostalgic way. The menu reflects this vibe. Full of breakfast and lunch diner classics as well as some Mexican dishes. I had pancakes herman style (which means they put fruit on it) and they were delicious. Everyone ordered something wildly different and everyone enjoyed. Great spot for a cozy breakfast! read more

The Beach Street Cafe - Pancake combo Herman style - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Watsonville, California

The Beach Street Cafe is a wonderful little diner tucked away in a small California farming town. Naturally, the ingredients are fresh and amazing. But the sense of community in this small restaurant along with the mom and pop atmosphere with the wait staff is what makes this place truly special. Be prepared, the portions are large and delicious. I split the Combo pancakes Herman style (def ask for Herman Style) and I left stuffed and satisfied. Definitely worth the stop if you are nearby. But be sure to get there before they close in the early afternoon! read more

The Beach Street Cafe - Crab Egg Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Watsonville, California

Just around the corner from the Martinelli's Company Store, The Beach Street Cafe was highly rated by Yelp that we had to try it out. We were not disappointed! Place was packed but organized. We did not wait long to be seated, we opted the patio area since it was a sunny day. Lots of items to choose from, they do serve breakfast all day too. We opted for the Salmon Eggs Benedict, Chorizo Eggs Benedict, Calamari and Eggs, and a Beach Street Breakfast Burrito. Service was fast and we were very impressed how big the servings are. They had rave reviews of their pancakes that I had to get a side order which was enough to satisfy my craving. Although they have hash browns, I recommend getting their homemade potatoes which was very tasty. Highly recommend if ever you are in Watsonville, especially if visiting the Martinelli Company Store. Limited parking at the back of the store, but plenty of street parking. read more

We were camping in Watsonville and wanted to get breakfast and found this little unassuming place. The inside is very diner like with a large counter and booths and tables. The service was fantastic -- had a nice conversation with one of the servers who had moved from LA and he was just so kind and warm. We got pancakes, eggs, toast, fruit, hash browns -- all the regular breakfast stuff -- but it was delicious!! The food had a homemade quality that just made it perfect and the pancakes were fluffy and light. If we are ever in the area again it's the first place we will eat! read more

I just love this place the food is so good! And love the salsa two kinds to top off your meal. The service is great they are so on top of everything you need. I love this place they keep it clean it's small but that what's I love this place is the best! Next week I will be back read more

Best breakfast burrito I've ever had! No lie. I got it with country style potatoes and jalapeño sausage. The burrito had so much flavor and it was a good size! They also had homemade salsa (mild and hot) that you can put on yourself. I tried the Mexican style coffee which is coffee with infused cinnamon/chocolate flavors (which was tasty). The cafe is quite small but I highly recommend you try this place if you are in the area. The food is worth it. Andrea, our server, had a great attitude even though the cafe was very busy with a long wait list. All the staff seemed to be helpful and courteous. Definitely a good vibe in there. read more

I was on a road trip and decided I wanted breakfast and pancakes. Decided to take a risk and go out of my way to The Beach Street Cafe because of all the great ratings. Took a turn off the highway and went on an enjoyable http://scalarlight.com drive though agricultural fields during harvest of lettuce, strawberries, potatoes and more. It was worth it ! The cafe is clean, service is very good, the pancakes were spot on and I decided on a very reasonably priced senior breakfast that was delicious. Egg scrambled just right, a slice of crispy bacon and fresh brewed iced tea. I even had a little sample of an apple compote. It was busy but not super noisy. I definitely recommend going out of your way for a meal here too. read more

The Beach Street Cafe - Chilaquiles scramble & Waffle combo - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Watsonville, California

What a hidden gem in Watsonville! We originally planned on going to Cowboys Corner Cafe as a party of 7 for brunch, and upon showing it, realized it was going to be a 45 min wait. While waiting, we saw this place nearby and the food looked just as good here. I decided to give a call to see how much of a wait it would be there. From the start, the staff was incredibly helpful on the phone. They helped get our group on the waitlist, and it would be about a 15 min wait. With that in mind, our group made it over and waited only a few minutes once we arrived to get seated. Definitely was a tremendous help there! The surrounding area doesn't do this brunch spot justice. Lots of industry spots up and down the street, which can make this spot easy to be missed. But don't let the surrounding area deceive you, this is The Spot to come for brunch. Absolutely delicious food, generous portions for the price, and incredibly helpful wait staff! I ordered the Chilaquiles Scramble, and it was jam packed full of flavor. The eggs were nice and fluffy, the hash browns had a nice crisp & not too oily, and the dish tasted fresh all around. There's so much food provided that even though I ate the whole thing for brunch, I was still feeling full to even eat dinner! read more

Came here for breakfast. Amazing service some of the freshest food I've ever eaten! I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area.

We did a google search for food nearby and this place came up. The plain front is nothing to grab your attention but the interior is welcoming and cozy.

I've been coming to this spot for nearly three years now. I will say this right off the bat GET HERE EARLY!!!! I came earlier today around 8:00 and it was PACKED!! The line is no joke, but as per usual I didn't have to wait that long. It's a bummer having to wait, but it's NOT their fault for being busy so I'm always prepared, trust me the food here is worth the wait, but I can see why it wouldn't be for others who get less excited. I come here so much that I already know the regulars. Today I ordered the; Crab Egg Benedict. It's light and very filling. You definitely get your moneys worth here. Great staff, great people and charismatic environment. I would like to say, this is a very small diner so I recommended calling ahead of time, or you could find yourself waiting in line, especially on Sunday which seems to be a very busy day for them - overall thank you for the hospitality and I look forward to my next visit. read more

Love coming here, although they are almost always full of people, we always get seated quickly. Food is delicious and staff is very nice.

came here for a late breakfast / brunch with friends. Service is wonderful, friendly and fast (without being intrusive). I had the Jalapeno sausage scramble with crispy hashbrowns. We also ordered pancakes, french toast and biscuit and gravy for the table to share. The french toast was SO SO good ... you can taste the vanilla, cinnamon and the bread still had it's bite (did not get soggy at all). the pancake is fluffy and light. Also very good. The biscuit and gravy is solid - lots of good pepper in the gravy, which is rich and flavorful. The hashbrowns are delicious ... just as they should be. Not many places have hashbrowns, more country potatoes, so this was a nice treat. Everyone was happy with their meals. Worth coming back to! read more
