We found this truly hidden gem from a Grok suggestion. It was a bit pricey, but a delight. Friendly staff, inviting patio seating with a welcoming feel of nature and art. The food was uniquely created with a balanced flavor that brought a smile. This was a pleasure to find.

We love this place! We come everytime we visit Cayucos.
The blue corn Monte Cristo waffle with a fried egg, harvati cheese, strawberry jam and maple syrup is the BEST! These flavors taste amazing together! The coffee is so delicious too! No Folger's here! Lol!
I can't wait until next summer to have another waffle!!!

Interesting waffle mix but it absolutely works! I didn't feel too full after eating too, which I feel normally sweet waffles make me stuffed.

Loved the vibe. Although it could use a little bit of dusting up. Pricer than expected.
Ordered:
the morro melt. Savory af
Weirdo waffle. Great as a dessert meal. I like peanut butter but not too much of it. The problem I had was that the peanut butter took over the taste of the whole meal. The bacon was a nice touch. I love bananas too.

Absolutely loved the blue corn waffle—spectacular! Honestly, you can’t go wrong with any waffle here—they’re all so good. I also ordered two smoothies, and they were thick, creamy, and perfectly sweet. Such a delicious treat from start to finish!

Great place! My son took me there, I was skeptical about this place and was hard to find. But once there, totally worth it. If you are traveling there, you don't want to miss this experience. Loved it! 🙏🏼

Its a great hipster spot but gluten free and organic shouldn't mean lack of flavor. The food needs something extra, not bad but not sure if we will be back.
