If you're headed or going through Ventura you have to stop here for theeee best Bagels anywhere!…read moreWe have never been disappointed with the variety or flavors and boy do they have a wide variety to choose from! Our favorite is the Everything Bagel with Lochs, yummy! Don't forget to try their Jalapeño bagel, you won't believe how delicious it is. Try it cause you're gonna love it!

Doesn't mean they aren't good - but my kid said 'this tastes interesting' lol cause we've taught her different isn't always 'bad!' - but these 100% taste like cake bagels, there's zero chewy-ness to the bagels, they basically crumble in your mouth like cake bread. not bad... just, not what we expected. would i buy a bagel here again? probably not - maybe one of the lunch sandwiches would be good though - since it's kinda like bread. really cute spot though. just...not what we expected.

Always a treat. People, food, service are as consistent as their Bagels. WORTH THE TIME AND COSTread more

Came here recently to grab some breakfast. Located in a mall, there's plenty of parking here. As…read moreyou walk in, definitely has that bagel shop feel when you're in New York. Staff was nice as we were greeted when we walked in. Ordered their Chorizo Avocado Sunrise bagel. Came with a jalapeno cheese bagel with avocado, chorizo patty and sauce. The bagel portion was a bit smaller. The chorizo patty with the sauce wasn't too bad. When they cut it in half, I think most of the patty ended up being on the other since after about 2 bites, the chorizo was gone. However, the other half had the patty portion filled up. Overall with the sauce, it wasn't too bad. Pricing was ok also.

My favorite breakfast and lunch spot in Ventura!…read more At this point, I think I've tried everything on the menu! I've even gotten to the point of creating my own little custom breakfast by combining different side dishes! All the fruit is fresh, the salads and sandwiches are big enough to share, and the coffee is good enough to get one to go for an afternoon pick me up (they close at 2pm). I love the high quality ingredients they use, from the eggs to the produce, nothing is industriel or pre-made. There is a parking lot in back, but during the weekday it's easy to park on the street.

This is the most joyous place - I'm in love!!…read more It's located in a business park. Street parking is easy. We checked in with the hostess and had a 15 minute wait. Once your seat is ready, you order at the counter and you get a number. The staff that took our order was awesome. Friendly, warm, high energy, and efficient. Our order came out in about 10-15 min. Water is self serve. Drip coffee- perfect and high quality. It tasted like Kona coffee! Lavender matcha- great and well balanced Japanese milk bread- this fell a tad short for me. I would've liked both sides to be seasoned/flavored. Japanese Milk bread is typically moist and fluffy , however this was a little dry likely due to the toasting of the bread. The color overall was lighter than expected. It's served with a berry sauce which is really yummy. Side of smashed potatoes- really good. Perfectly seasoned and ketchup tasted homemade Aussie meat pie- soooooo delicious! The crust was awesome and the meat was tender. We also loved the side salad because it had a little zing of lemon. A rare moment where a side salad is actually fantastic! Miso chicken katsu Sando- really loved this! The chicken breast is huge. As other reviews stated, it's not a typical chicken katsu. If you like honey, you'll like this. The honey sauce hits you on the front end and ends with a little acidity from the aioli and slaw. The sandwich was super juicy and flavorful. While large, it didn't feel heavy. Each bite got better and better. Brontë bowl - OUR FAVORITE!!!! Ok first off, I hate mushrooms with a passion, but I kept them in the order because they are curried and I knew theyre an essential part of the dish. They were awesome. I didn't mind them one bit. This dish does not need salmon, and if anything I think adding it would've been too salty. I naturally eat fast but this bowl makes you slow down because of the layers/elements. The sweetness of onions, the creaminess of the feta and avocado, the crunch from the seeds, the delicious pesto, the buttered bread, the perfectly poached eggs - UGH! So perfect! Everything had a purpose. I am obsessed with this bowl. It is so much more filling than you'd think. I could eat this everyday and I hope they never change it. Ambiance was great. We sat at the bar which felt spacious. The inside is gorgeous and just puts you in a good mood. The best thing about this place is the staff. Literally every single person we interacted with was amazing! Everyone here is friendly, warm, and just looks happy to be there. I can't wait to return!!!!!

I think by now we all know Cajé Coffee Roasters is a fan favorite in Downtown Ventura...but if you…read moredon't, now you know! This seriously addicting coffee shop, which started in Santa Barbara, has been a Ventura favorite for quite some time now, and it's been so fun watching them grow. Nestled in a charming converted cottage, this cozy café is the perfect addition to Downtown Ventura. When I stopped by over the weekend, they were insanely busy so I wasn't able to capture much of the space itself for photos but I can promise you it's a cute spot. We opted for outside table dining and it was lovely. To order you stand in line and then order at the counter, they'll bring the food back to your table, but they will call you up to grab your drinks. We ordered a couple of iced lattes and their famous Bella Rose - iced matcha, which was absolutely gorgeous and just as delicious. 10/10. Their drinks are truly little works of art and always worth ordering. To finish off brunch, we grabbed a couple of bagels. One of my favorites is their toasted bagel with tomato, avocado, and cream cheese, it's simple and so satisfying. Next time I'll be trying one of their fruit bowls. The staff here are absolute rockstars. They crank out drink after drink with a smile on their faces while keeping the atmosphere welcoming and fun. We always love stopping by, and if you haven't been yet, consider this your sign to check them out and support a fantastic local business.

This is a true no-frills donut shop. Nothing fancy, just classic donuts done right, which I honestly love. You order directly at the window, making it a quick, grab-and-go type of spot. My go-to is the chocolate French cruller: light, airy, and perfectly balanced. Everything is fresh and the prices are great. The owners are friendly, efficient, and clearly know what they're doing. They're located on a busy street, so street parking availability really depends on the day and time, but it's usually manageable. Their hours can vary, they sometimes stay open later or close early if they sell out (which happens for a reason). A neighborhood staple and absolutely worth stopping for if you're in the area.
