Really good breakfast food, I think I got the blue cheese, bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich, which I know is more lunchtime, but whatever. My husband got the vegetarian breakfast sandwich and added an egg to it and bacon.

We also got a couple coffees, and sat outside and watched our children chase birds on a grassy knoll.

I also like that they have got lots of pastries, wine, snacks, and merch to buy.

Casual cafe with the best baked goods in Gualala.

Trinks is the place to go for your morning beverage and pastries. Their scones are my personal favorites, but all their baked goods are worthy.

The cafe's back patio overlooks a grassy expanse (great for kids to run around) and sweeping ocean views. Great place to meet friends or bring visiting family.

This visit, I ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese and their classic mocha. Both were delicious and disappeared quickly.

I've loved the food at Trinks in the past, but this time our sandwiches and salads were dry and boring. I hope that's a temporary fluke!

I got the blackened chicken sandwhich and some fries. They were delicious! The bread foe the sandwhich was exquisit! Fries were screamin good! Bought. some scones to take with me - blueberry & a mixed berry/peach i think - outstanding with coffee the next morning. Inwas camping with a couple buddies up in Manchester - glad we took the drive - those guys got breakfast and we were all going on about how delicious the food was. I hooe this place stays in business a long long time! I want to go back next time i’m up the coast from the Bay Area!
Thank You Trinks personell for the excelle t food a d service!!!! 😎👊🏽❤️

Pastries are good not too sweet. Nice selection of items and lots of frozen baked goods to go. Counter staff need to be trained in customer service. Both times we stopped not very friendly and second time we were given the wrong cookie and we did not find out until we were down the road.

This review is about sustainability only! 🙂 I was so happy to see all of this real, reusable silverware and glassware and plateware at your café.

By 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. So it means a lot to me to see a waterfront restaurant like yours, taking serious steps to mitigate this issue.

I also really love that you do not sell plastic bottled water. Instead, you have a great selection of aluminum, canned soda, as well as glass bottled water.

I wonder if there is a way you may slowly be able to transition away from the plastic clamshell to go containers, and the plastic coffee, cups, for those taking their drink to go? Just something to consider! There are lots of compostable options now, depending on the price point. Or, perhaps there is a way you can incentivize your customers to bring their own mug

Thank you for helping your customers to better look out for this glorious ocean that we get to watch from your porch.

PA: delicious cappuccino and scone!

I came here for breakfast, there's not much to choose from during the weekdays. We shared the pancake breakfast that comes with eggs and bacon, we added chicken sausage. It came out the about $30. Very pricey and it only came with one pancake. They don't serve their lunch menu on Wednesday's. We sat outside, it was a bit cold. The view was very nice. Service was friendly and fast.

Good vegetarian options. Not the usual boring take on vegetarian food. Great dessert selections too!

great stop for breakfast and probably lunch or dinner. The lentil and eggs breakfast bowl was amazing and packed with protein. great looking pastry too, if you're so inclined, it was all I could do not to get one.

Fantastic café with a sea view!
Trinks offers amazing coffee, a huge variety of delicious pastries, cakes, and even tasty burger balls and drinks. You can enjoy everything with a beautiful view of the sea, whether you sit inside, outside, or on the lawn that leads to a scenic viewpoint. Great for kids to play, very relaxed atmosphere, and the staff is incredibly friendly. We loved it!
