“This place embodies the adage ‘All the Best Things in Life Are Edible’ ?Their fluffy sourdough is the bomb (ask for it sliced) & try the chocolate baguettes if you dare … be forewarned, they are addictive!I’ve tried many of their items, which are many, varied, & all yummy!They also have a stall at the Saturday Farmers Market at Cabrillo College so you can balance out all those healthy veggies with some baked yumminess ?“
“A local gem in Aptos! If you live here, you already know. If you're from out of town, check out their web menu and head over. Just know that typical peak days/times, it might be hard to get a parking spot but they have overflow parking at Cabrillo. Online pre-orders can help speed things up. There's also a cute gift shop within the bakery cafe. Great place for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or coffee hangout. The Farm is famous for their fruit tarts (amazing crust).“
“Food is absolutely phenomenal here! We got the hummus with flatbread, beef and lamb gyros, and the pepperoni pizza. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. The flatbread and pizza they cook in a brick oven right in the middle of the kitchen for everyone to see. Doesn't get better than that! The pizza sauce was also very herbaceous and flavorful. Gyros meat just melted in your mouth it was so tender and moist. 10/10!“
“LOVE! If you've never been here, it's a must try! The food is AMAZING and the little area to eat with the fireplace is adorable too! The service is fast and professional, especially with how busy it always is, and you can just tell the employees care about their work! 10/10 recommend!“
“Awesome service, nice people, and amazing food! Huge menu with tons of veggie options and meat options. Love the location in sj and this one is a great option for when you are needing your Ike's sandwich fix. Ample parking in the back and easy accessibility. I get the Jaymes sirewich on Dutch with all the freebies and it is a great sandwich with fried chicken“
“This is our favorite pizza my heart location. The restaurant is big enough to accommodate larger groups. They have plenty of workers so the restaurant operates like a well oiled machine. The workers are super sweet and accommodating as well. We will always make a stop here while in town.“
“We loved our experience at Melinda’s! The food was amazing and the people that were working were so nice! Melinda even gave me recommendations for other celiac-safe restaurants in the area. I highly recommend this spot for those who follow a gluten-free diet and even those who don’t! My husband and daughter don’t eat gluten-free but they loved the food, too!“
“Love Pacific Cookie Company they are truly the best cookies in town other than my homemade cookies I make. The renovations that they have done to the store on pacific garden mall which is the flagship store are beautiful. I just love the colors and it just brightens up the place. You can't go wrong with any of the cookies. My favorite is still just the chocolate chip, but the almond joe and dr.midnight are all in my top 3 rotations every time I go. I also like that they still have bags of days olds that you can purchase for a discounted rate and trust me they are just as good a day or so later. All you have to do is wrap them in a wet paper towel and put them I. The microwave for about 15-20 seconds and they are perfect.“
“Delicious soy golden milk! Perfectly spiced. It can be hard to find a non-caffeinated, warm beverage that fits the rich and creamy bill. Sweet, old time eclectic Santa Cruz vibe as well, and was provided very helpful and knowledgeable service by the individual at the register.“
“Stopped in because Vegan Pizza was advertised and did not disappoint! The hot honey topping was perfect on the melty vegan cheese/veggie pizza. The wheat crust had an interesting fold and was crispy. I highly recommend the cinnabread! I ordered the candied pecans and ate the whole thing before I left the parking lot. 10/10 will return for another tasty pie or six!Vegetarian options: Veggie options and even a vegan option, too!“
“So I'm not gonna lie when we first pulled up we thought it was gonna be busy but it was completely dead. We were considering of going somewhere else but we wanted to give it a chance so we went inside order our pizza and it was a breeze also very nice service and we also got to play some ping-pong while we waited for our food so that was fun, the vibes here are very local which is nice. Highly recommend this place if you'd like thin cut pizza, maybe add a little bit more extra red sauce because it was a little amount they put on but a great place overall come check it out you put yourself. Also, almost forgot the best part that it's woodfired pizza !!“
“Best drip coffee outside of my house hands down. Shook me! Dark and deep, not bitter or acidic. Wow ?!Great bagels, split the Deluxe Lox and it was perfect. Tomatoes look like they grew them on the spot, ripe and juicy. Everything bagel is my jam.Bags of day old bagels up for grabs but you better get there early cause people were walking out the door with their arms full.Very ample fish and cream cheese to bagel ratios. ??Full and satisfied but looking forward to my next visit.“
“The veganized nachos were delicious!Has vegan cheese options (additional charge) and can customize some items for vegan options. if you want to customize to add more protein or add items, it adds up $.Server has said they can sub the meat, but I/they should have clarified how much each add on item was.Cool that they add a living wage tax.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian, have to modify for veganDietary restrictions: Ask about dietary“
“Dharma's is amazing. I love their breakfast burritos - I ask for no beans and extra tofu, and it's amazing! Their kitcheree is also fantastic - very good if you are feeling under the weather. Lots of chopped up ginger for your immune system. I also love their American Saute and their Bo Thai, but I just wish they sauteed regular tofu instead of using the baked tofu that they use now. That's a serious bummer. And their miso honey with the American Saute rocks. Try it!“
“Suda is located near 41st Ave off of Portola Drive. I often forget it is here until someone invites me to lunch and this is where we end up. I have been here for a baby shower as well; they have a private party room in the back if you want to have a more private space with your friends. They have great brunch and lunch. I have only been here once for dinner and it is just as good. I usually end up getting the burger or fish tacos which are both really good. The atmosphere is really cute; they have lots of plants which makes the space feel inviting and cozy. I love coming here. They also have plenty of parking in the parking lot. If you haven't been here yet, you should definitely give them a try.“
“Both the service and the ice cream flavors were so on point. It was such a warm day and hot inside this place, but the women working were SO friendly and kind and gave us samples of everything. The Turkish coffee is sublime, and the mint chip was really good too. My husband had scoops of both. I enjoyed a chocolate milkshake with the dark chocolate ice cream. Would definitely go back!“
“This is one of my favorite bagel places. If I could, I would give them an extra star for having a good selection of bagels still available at noon time on a Sunday. I had the cheddar pesto with veggie cream cheese. Great chewy consistency to the bagel. Also awesome is that they put a decent amount of cheddar and pesto on the bagel. The bagel was toasted and some of the cheddar was crispy. So good. Next time, though, I'm getting the chive cream cheese. It has a more distinct flavor. I look forward to my next bagel here.“
“I love the acaì at this place. It’s the best in the area. I like all their options. The fruit is very fresh. The menu is very poorly organized so it’s kind of confusing to figure out at first. The service is pretty slow but I appreciate that they take their time. I disappointed that their prices have gotten so high. When I first starting coming a large was $10 and now it’s $18. It makes it so I can only come as a special treat instead of as a meal out option. I know times are hard for many businesses and prices are going up all over but it’s really too much for me.“
“Love this place! Julie and Dan, owners have made this the perfect local go to for groceries, deli and gifts! I am so grateful for their attention to detail, amazing and nutritious selection in their deli ( made in house daily), freshly baked breads, fresh juices and customer service. Thank you Julie and Dan - you always go the extra mile and I am so grateful you are in our neighborhood!“
