What really made the visit extra special was how kind and welcoming the staff were -- they were so sweet to my little boy and made us feel right at home. You can tell they truly care about their customers. We'll definitely be back again soon!

This is the 3rd time I've visited and each time I am equally disappointed…read more Food: the bagels are bland and doughy. Absolutely zero taste or personality. They just feel like a fat slice of wonder bread. The sandwiches are fine but nothing to write home about. Coffee is a gavina pimp that tastes burned and bitter. Service: the folks are busy and nice but the guy making food behind the counter puts nothing into his prep. Not sure how to put my finger in it but it takes the trust out of the equation for me. Parking is a nightmare behind the building and dicey in front. Overall I'd pass if possible. I'm done coming here.

Had breakfast on Saturday morning at this restaurant in Oceanside. The location is attached to the…read moreMission Pacific Hotel. We arrived for breakfast just after 9 AM and it was not crowded at all. We were able to sit wherever we wanted. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating has an amazing view of the Oceanside beach and pier. The indoor seating is an open air concept with their coffee bar and bakery at the front and a closed kitchen in the back. The weight staff was very professional and courteous. Ours was especially attentive and took the time to tell us what some of the more popular dishes are at breakfast time. The food was delicious. Their coffee was delicious! I ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes, and they were moist and surprisingly, very citrusy and slightly tart which was balanced with a few dollops of lemon curd that was on the plate. I also ordered a coffee cake, which I did not end up eating however, when I had it as a midnight snack later, it was delicious. It was so buttery, especially on top where the crumble was. It was the perfect blend of sweet and salty. My daughter ordered the Hawaiian style fried rice. We were pleasantly surprised that the spam on the plate is homemade spam and not the kind you get from the can. It definitely tasted a lot better than the kind you get from the can. Sidenote: I am a fan of the one you get on the can, however! The fried rice was fried with kimchi, pineapple, green onion, and toasted sesame oil. The plate came with a thin omelette on top. The portions are good, and if you are not too hungry, you can definitely share them. This place is also dog friendly, which I found to be great since I am the owner of a rat terrier. There were plenty of other customers with their furry friends chilling at their feet. In fact, the restaurant offers a pet menu with options like unsalted hamburger or unsalted and grilled chicken thigh. I am definitely going to go back when I'm in the area. I am excited to try other things on their menu. Enjoy!

We were seated at a perfect table on the patio, Ethan was our awesome server! I had a really hard time choosing what I wanted, so I went with the Clam Chowder and the Vegan Banana Pancake. The Clam Chowder was presented beautifully, but actually was just ok. There was little flavor, it was mostly just a bowl of potatoes and broth. The vegan banana pancake was delicious!! My cousin said her food was just ok as well. We both had hot drinks and loved them. I had a latte and she had 2 of the hot chocolates. We did enjoy the ambiance and the service. I would go back again to try other menu items as they were highly recommended by family members.

GROCERY STOP NEAR THE BEACH (5 stars)…read more - STORE: convenient - SERVICE: friendly and excellent - PRICE: fair - AMBIANCE: mini mart/convenience store It's a small independent small business. Support small, support local! Most shoppers are either residence in the area, campers, or beach goers. It's so convenient and several blocks from the beach to grab items you may need. It's small, has a variety, but also can be limited. It reminded me of a mini 7/11, Vons, and Sprouts smooshed together and then shrunken by 75%. - pre packed food - poultry/meat section - chips/snack aisle - Daily aisle - wine and beer aisle - cleaning supplies isle It was a "good to know" to see they carry oil, small butane takes, and firewood too. Overall, had a little bit of everything. When in need for snacks for the beach and came to the beach unprepared - a stop here will be the spot. Until the next review...

The good part is the food is better than average for being a busy spot right by the beach. We do…read moreorder fries and chicken fingers a lot for the kids! The bad is it's disgustingly dirty, even in the mornings. The trash cans are deep with dirt and food and just grime, and the grounds are just as bad. Since you are by the beach, you have dogs constantly urinating around the tables in the area and who knows what else. If this place would just power wash a couple times a week it would make a world of difference.

Oceanside is a part of my childhood, how could I miss it? Especially since the bites are awe-inspiring. Lemon pancakes are the moment, they're slightly zesty and mildly sweet. Perfect for sunny days and oh-so-photogenic. If you're a scrambles and omelette boy like me, you have another reason to love this place. I highly recommend the coffee and small treats too. Drinks are refillable and seating is readily available. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are accessible. Ordering is done at the counter, you'll be given a number to post at your table once you complete your transaction. Overall, the service is excellent. We only had one weird experience with a tall girly who had major attitude problems. I recently brought my parents for their anniversary and we had a pleasant time.
