We stayed in PB for a wedding in La Jolla. We were only a few steps away from the beach. One early morning, I decided to take a walk to the beach to enjoy some morning ocean air while everyone else was asleep. I continued walking down the boardwalk to get the legs moving. It was a bit chilly and I decided to walk a bit further down to this coffee shop. It's a small little coffee shop inside The Wayfarer. I wanted a smoothie but also coffee so I ended up getting their coffee smoothie plus a chocolate croissant. Pretty decent. Probably will go for a straight coffee next time, the smoothie wasn't really my thing. It was lacking so much. But overall not a bad place to start the morning!

The place was kind of hidden. I happened to see a sign while on a run. I loved the decor. The name caught my attention because I'm a red hot chili peppers fan and the nostalgia drew me in. Great coffee. The girl was super sweet. The only thing I would say is don't go here if you are in a hurry but otherwise it is worth the wait if you have time.

Weak cold coffee.  Horrible.  Avoid.

Food was great! Breakfast Burrito delicious. Sandwiches, coffee, drinks all five stars!…read more Wonderful outdoor dog-friendly patio lunch spot too. Will be back!!!

I will preface this review with the acknowledgment that this is the epitome of first world…read moreproblems. I actually love this place (I could have sworn I had reviewed positively before). I'm just extremely disappointed with how poor my experience was today because I had only super positive experiences previously and was looking forward to dining there this morning after sometime away, but holy hell ....today's experience has been so profoundly bad. Firstly, my husband ordered two breakfast burritos - one with bacon and the other with bacon on the side. I'll chalk this one up to miscommunication, but they put bacon in one, and bacon in the other too - and then added bacon on the side to the other and charged us $5.50 for the extra bacon. Again, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt here and will be sure to communicate explicitly next time. They kindly made me a new one, but the new one had potatoes that weren't cooked thoroughly (likely to rush the food to me, so I acknowledge the difficulty here), however there was hardly any avocado. I literally had to complain again because I didn't believe there was any avocado at all. I wouldn't be as pissed if this weren't an EIGHTEEN DOLLAR breakfast burrito. Lastly, the coffee lids don't fit on the cups. We tried to put one on and ended up spilling the entire coffee. I chalked this up to an accident on our part, however another patron who observed our incident said "their lids don't fit the cup, right??" And I was like "oh so it wasn't just us??" And she was like "no, I almost spilled mine all over too." This random patron encouraged us to ask for a new cup of coffee as a result (thanks, random patron!). The Molly's team did kindly make us a new (albeit quite bitter) drink, which I appreciate. However, the lid was still an issue - it would spill out of the cup all over the rim between the cup and the lid when I'd try to take a sip, so I took off the lid entirely, but then was stuck with dealing with spills while walking around - I had to move at a snail's pace to prevent spills altogether. This was easier to deal with random leakage around the entire cup every time I'd sip with the lid on. Ultimately It was just a lose-lose with the ill fitting lid situation. All this to say - Molly's Team, yall were fantastic just a month ago. What happened? I understand food and services in the beach area stuff are often expensive and rarely good, but you guys are *too* expensive for this poor of service and quality. Two stars because at least the folks there are generally nice.

I was looking for a beach cafe, and Palmys fit the vibe I was going for. Not to mention, they offer…read morea variety of breakfast meals and lunch items. I went for a late productivity session at around 2PM, and there were plenty of seats on the patio, I even some patio couches and limited seating inside. Though it doesn't exactly face the beach, the layout is very nice and gives off a beachy vibe anyway! I enjoyed their Lavender Latte, hot. It had a nice balance of coffee and milk, with the lavender not too strong. The sweetness was balanced well. I also munched on a cheeseburger, which I could only eat a little of it since it was quite heavy. I did eat a lot of the tater tots that came on the side, as they were deliciously seasoned and needed to be eaten while it was crispy. The service was great; I was checked up on my order and staff were constantly going around to buss the tables. I felt productive here and look forward to coming another time when I can!

We had a great experience at Palmys! The restaurant was clean and well decorated inside and out…read more The food was REALLY good with perfect portions - we split the breakfast burrito (vg & the GF tortilla was great - not crumbly!) and the blue horizon acai bowl. The acai bowl was naturally sweet, not overpowering. They offer merch & local goods up front, and the cafe has plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. They also offer coffee/ tea, which I will try next time! :-)

My husband and I picked this hotel for our anniversary weekend in San Diego…read more It was right on the beach which we totally loved! We took a morning walk on the beach every day we were there and caught a couple of beautiful sunsets. There were many restaurants and coffee shops in very close walking distance and we were minutes from the San Diego Zoo and La Jolla. The staff were all friendly and helpful. We ate breakfast one morning on the patio facing the beach and it was nice. We also sat by the pool a couple of times and had drinks and they had fresh cookies every day which were yummy and I thought really nice. Since I did mention it was our anniversary they had a dozen roses waiting for us in our room and gave us a bottle of wine-really nice :) My only negative was that we were unable to get a room with a king size bed, they said it was based on availability even though I had booked months in advance, so that was disappointing to spend our anniversary weekend in a room with two beds. I would recommend this hotel otherwise.

The rest was disappointing. Jillian was our server, she was super friendly. However the food took 2 hours to come out. The breakfast combos were not very good. The eggs tasted old or something. The speciality Pancakes were good but not something I'd come back for. Definitely taking an Uber to a breakfast place if we stay at the Pacific Terrace again.
