Waffles near Newbury Park, CA

“Stopped at Honey and Herb while we were in California, and overall it was a very solid breakfast.

Everything we ordered was good. I would not quite call it great, but it was definitely above average and showed more thought than the typical breakfast spot.

The Bloody Mary was especially well done and had actual flavor instead of tasting like somebody poured vodka into tomato juice and called it a day. The waffles were another highlight. They were well thought out, properly executed, and just flat out good.

The pork belly had great potential, but I would have liked it cooked a little longer so the fat could break down further and turn it into that tender, sticky meat candy pork belly is supposed to be.

The only real downside was the wait. Breakfast took over an hour for a table of four, which is a long time to sit around getting progressively hungrier. Fortunately, the food was good when it finally arrived.

Honey and Herb was not a life changing breakfast, but it was comfortably above average, thoughtfully prepared, and absolutely worth trying. I would go back, hopefully on a day when the kitchen is moving a little faster.“

“Creative menu options and always a really satisfying meal. Portions are great, always very fresh and delicious. Love that there is a gluten free waffle also but wish the potatoes were gf also! Fresh squeezed juice, nice atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff.“

“Great local coffee shop with comfortable and inviting decor. The staff are very friendly and the coffee is consistently delicious. I like that their iced coffee drinks aren't overly sweet. This is as close to a Los Feliz or Portland coffee shop as you'll find in Simi. I've only had positive experiences at Merra and would highly recommend checking them out.“
