If you’re in La Jolla, this is a good one to try out. We stopped in mid walk just to get an açaí bowl and it lived up to the hype. Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor in the afternoon on a weekend. Will have to come back for their drinks and to try more food options

We went to the Blue Whale for all three days of our trip to La Jolla! The drinks and food were delicious and flavorful. The entire staff was also extremely friendly and welcoming. We’d recommend this place to anyone in La Jolla and will definitely come again when we visit again :)
PS - our favorite drink was the mango tajín smoothie!

The lattes are pretty solid in the cutest mugs and the french toast is pretty hefty and filling. Super cute little cafe with such a beachy vibe. The decor is super cute and gives such a cafe by the sea look.
