The Cove Cafe

Not too bad.

The most consistently good place around here. Best food and coffee.

This place never fails to impress. They serve good dishes for fair rates, there no long wait even when the spot is full.

Imagine a place where the food is probably better than home (don't tell mom). The Malaga Cove Ranch Market not only has the best selection and quality of food, but the location and sights are one of a kind. Centered within the historical Malaga Cove Plaza, it's restoration for the eyes and pallet. You owe yourself a treat and go take in the full experience! John May

25 minutes for a matcha latte that seems pre-mixed?avoid

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, but bland eggs ?

Love their breakfast! Avocado and egg toast the best. Jesse and Allison so friendly.

Ok, so first of all the good news. Their food is good. However, I have been to this cafe 6 different times and 4 of those times they have been closed when their hours both online and on the front door says they should be open. Once we arrived at 10:30am when on the door they state they open at 9am and we were a group of 6 and they were shut. So its not like it was 9:05am and they open at 9am. This has happened to me 4 times!!!! When I asked the bank next door why they are not open. Their exact words where "They seem to open when they please." They NEVER answer their phone either which is frustrating. So, my friends and I never even bother any more trying to eat here. I would love to say eat here as the food is honestly not bad. But its not worth the effort.

It was a nice quaint place, coffee was good as were the bagels.. I'd like to eat off the menu next time, it smelled great!

Expensive. $20 for a salad and can diet soda

Awesome place to eat some food when in a rush. Their service is quick, pricing is convenient, good ambience. I highly recommend this spot.

Great menu and Friendly service. Nice place

Amazing Cafe! I'm very picky with my acai bowls (I like them really thick) and this place had the most flavorful and thick acai bowl I've ever had. I also had the honey vanilla latte and that was phenomenal, not too sweet which tends to be a problem at most places but not here. The service was also really nice and staff was patient with my questions and asked if I wanted substitutes in the latte, and I love that proactiveness (even though I didn't need subs, lol). Honestly I would recommend this place to everyone.

Some of the best coffee I've ever had and great food, all for a fair price.

This place is a gem! We go here all the time and love the food. Prepared fresh by quality people - owner/operators. My wife loves the lavender latte. The open face breakfast sandwich is awesome. Support local business and give them a shot!
