A nice little spot by the ocean. This place has a good variety of food and the prices are pretty good for this area. I really liked the clam chowder. It had a little bit of a spicy kick, but overall it was really good. The tuna poke bowl was also tasty. But the real star here is definitely the lobster roll, super fresh and really delicious. There are plenty of tables to sit at, and while you're eating, the seagulls nearby will definitely keep an eye on you. You can also grab regular drinking water there if you want. Their menu is actually pretty big. For example: - Tuna poke bowl - about $20 - Fish & chips - around $19 - Fish tacos - about $18 - Tuna melt - around $18 - Cheeseburger - about $17 - Fried chicken sandwich - about $16 - Grilled chicken Caesar salad - about $15 - Veggie rice bowl - about $15 - Clam chowder - about $12 - Hot dog - about $12 They also serve breakfast until noon things like breakfast burritos ($15), avocado toast ($14), French toast ($12), granola with yogurt ($11), and bagels. The parking lot right next to the café is usually pretty busy, but there’s free street parking right across the road where you can almost always find a spot. If you get a little confused, here’s the address for the parking: 31132 Coast Hwy, Laguna Beach, CA 92651.
Very good counter serve cafe offering lots of food options but famous for their popular lobster rolls. They don’t skimp out on the lobster portions and they are extremely fresh and delicious. Beware of market price though, each lobster roll was $38, which was double the price of all of their other menu items. The chicken tenders were also very good, crispy and tender. You order at the counter and they have outdoor seating which can be full during weekends. There is a huge paid parking lot that is right by the beach so you can enjoy a nice stroll after enjoying their food. Great location and friendly staff.
Parking too a bit but once ordered, the food was great and service was friendly. Lobster roll was good but it’s also $36 and fish taco was tasty. The coffee especially was very tasty with the good coffee beans they used. The view, worth every penny….
If you’re spending time at Aliso Beach, this little sand-level café is an absolute gem! The views are unbeatable — you can literally enjoy your breakfast or lunch with your toes in the sand and the ocean right in front of you. The food and drinks are fresh and perfect for a beach day, but what really makes this spot special is the friendly service. Jordyn and Cooper were fantastic — super welcoming, quick with our order, and genuinely kind. They make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first time. Whether you’re grabbing an alcoholic beverage lemonade or fish and chips, after a swim or just watching the waves, this is the perfect place to relax and soak it all in. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Laguna Beach!
Fish tacos are outstanding! Jalapeno cheddar bagel was the freshest and most delicious I've ever tasted. Excellent food casual beachfront dining. Highly recommend the stop!
