Great coffee, pastries, and what a view! Don't miss this stop when traveling on HWY 1. My mocha was made perfectly (and I am picky!), my molasses ginger cookie was delicious, and the ocean views were the perfect backdrop.

We were recommended to try this place while in the area. Overall it’s good, a bit pricey, maybe $20 per person for breakfast but fair coffee pricing. It’s a cute cafe with lots of choices from coffee, tea, treats and even some souvenirs. Welcoming environment and friendly people with a nice view. Coffee was nice and hot, got a caramel macchiato, delicious. The second time in I ordered a chai latte but felt it was missing something. For food we ordered breakfast tacos, the chorizo had a nice kick to it, also had the ham and egg sandwich, my favorite kind of breakfast. I felt the portion for the tacos could’ve been more like maybe another taco.
If you’re passing through I’d say give it a try, you’ll see why the locals love it!
Can’t wait to visit again 😊

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.
