Not a standout brunch spot, just the typical offerings. The BLAT was just okay, the tomatoes were pretty bland and the bacon was thick but lacked crispness. The pancakes were pretty good but a bit indulgent for brunch. Would probably not come back

Food delivered. No utensils as requested.
The $4.50 fruit was very skimpy compared to last time i ordered
and the salad literally had 2 cucumbers and three 1/2 cherry tomatoes. Very disappointed.

Visiting Carmel and decided to stop by Monterey. Wanted to grab a good brunch and found Winston. Not sure what the good reviews are about.
Cafe was cute, but our food was very bland and simply mediocre.
Older lady who was our server kept forgetting to check on us, or to bring things we asked for.
Pretty disappointed in people's taste around here if they think this is good food.

The staff was lovely. I ordered a goat cheese omelet, and the egg had the consistency of liquid eggs, very uniform, and kind of bland. The potatoes could have benefited from a little more seasoning as well, but considering the location, I can understand why they might cater to a mild pallette. My companion ordered the chicken pot pie and enjoyed the savory interior and flaky top.

I could eat biscuits and gravy every morning 🤤. No hash browns today, but I tried the crispy potatoes and they did not disappoint! The service was great too. Can't go wrong with a hearty breakfast like that!

We had brunch at Winston's on a Saturday. The restaurant was very busy as expected, but surprisingly, the wait for a table was only a few minutes.

I had the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. It was delicious, and I highly recommend it if you're a fan of the lemon and berry combination.

Great brunch restaurant

Service was amazing! The lemon ricotta pancakes were the best i've ever tasted!! Our server Alondra was the best server I have ever had. I did witness a biggie who licked her entire plate clean complain about the food AFTER she had finished the entire meal and then get mad when that meal wasn't taken off the bill. I actually saw she left a review not too long ago and all i'm going to say is that it's really sad that she was being glutinous as hell cuz how are you gonna complain after finishing your whole meal LMFAO anyways... Alondra was the best!!!! in

Awesome food and service as always. My server alondra is very quick with orders and checked on us constantly. We did notice a rather large woman eat an entire plate of food and then try to get a refund which was a bit unsightly but other than that an amazing experience here as always.

Their Salmon Benedict is incredibly mediocre, don’t order. Our server was Alondra (I hope I spelt it properly), shorter lady in glasses, a little bit out a chubbier side. We couldn’t find her anywhere and tried talking to her about replacing salmon Benedict with something else, she told us that she can’t do it, we have to pay a full price for another item.

Mediocre food, pretty place, nice atmosphere, appeared to have nice servers except Alondra.

A brunch gem in Pacific Grove. Do not miss the lemon ricotta pancakes nor the waffle and fried chicken.

Parking: Good except on weekends.
