Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
It was like traveling back in time. We ended up here after spending time at the beach and tried to look for a fish n chips restaurant on Google maps with low internet reception. It was 0.4 miles away so decided this was the place to go. We were pleasantly surprised by the retro style interior. The restaurant wasn’t busy and service was good. The food came out quick and it was pretty good except for the beans and rice that came with the fish taco. It wasn’t tasty enough to finish. We liked the $9.99 cheeseburger deal. This place has so much potential. Great place to take photos. Hope they renovate their ancient restrooms.
Decent service. The burgers, fries, and onion rings are good. The chicken fajitas weren’t great. The chicken was cooked well, which deserves mention, but there was too much sauce all over the meat and vegetables. I also don’t know why they include tomatoes with the other vegetables. The rice and beans were pretty bland. And there were only 2 tortillas. The huevos rancheros were fine. Their shakes are great. Thick and creamy.
Our favorite place for comfort food! From the eggs to the spaghetti, you can’t go wrong with Harbor House Cafe. The portion sizes are huge(just look at that ham steak) and the menu is plentiful. The staff is very friendly, but they can be understaffed at times. Try the tuna melt the next time you’re in the area
The Harbor House Cafe is such a vibe! I absolutely love the atmosphere and decor. It's like walking into a vintage, preserved time capsule. Great selection of music, too. If you're looking for good ol' classic comfort food, you chose the right place. We love to order breakfast for dinner. However, there are a LOT of great selections to order. The service is fantastic and has the friendliest work staff. This is a Dana Point staple and we'll be coming back whenever we are in the area.
Harbor House Cafe offers a delightful dining experience with its cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious food. From hearty breakfast options to tasty lunch and dinner choices, there's something for everyone. The welcoming vibe make it a must-visit spot for locals and tourists alike.
