Excellent dog treats. Bingo is always excited to come here. The espresso is excellent and so is the vegan chocolate cake!
Wish they'd add more vegan food options.

The coffee is decent and reliable, with a variety of meal options available on the menu. You can also purchase souvenirs, wine, and other local specialties. The lawn near the outdoor tables is great for walking dogs, and the spacious parking makes it a convenient spot. Compared to the café in Anchor Bay and the micro roaster in Point Arena, this place is much better. If you’re heading north, this is the best choice before reaching Mendocino.

It's good, but I was astounded that they charge $6 for a bagel and cream cheese...

The scones are truly amazing--light and flavorful. Coffee is great too. High quality cafe for a small town

Good food but expensive, even by Mendo Coast standards. Also basically the only option in Gualala.

Nasty food at an unbelievably high price! $18 for just 2 pancakes is ridiculous!! Service was mediocre at best considering there is barely any at all. The only upside to this place was the outside patio. Would absolutely not recommend this place if you want decent food. They should be ashamed of themselves.

We found Trink's while on a California road trip. We had started the morning in Monte Rio and were working our way north. There was a long stretch without much on HWY 1, let alone open earlier in the morning. We were so happy to stumble upon Trink's! The food and coffee were delicious. The ham and egg sandwich came on amazing bread, and I loved that you can order one pancake on the side. It was great to sit either inside or outside and be able to see the water. Highly recommend.

Worst gravy and biscuits I’ve had in my life. Sweet unseasoned glop. Truly terrible. I hate complaining to staff, because they’re just doing their job, but readers beware. Do not order the gravy and biscuits.

Trinks has a nice variety of breakfast items. We have tried several different things over our visits and haven't been disappointed in anything yet. It's nice (when not too chilly) to sit outside and enjoy a hot bite in the morning. Definitely worth a visit!

$13 for a dirty chai latte that was watered down.
