6 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near San Simeon

“Food is always good.. servers always try to keep up. Service is always great.
People might need to give places a chance especially on holiday weekends. If you don't want to wait and expect to be seated and served within 10mins drive out to a fast food restaurant.“

“We had a very long tiring trip through the mountains just to get to our lodge in Lucia because we had to avoid the landslide closure on Hwy 1. It was exhausting driving, then 2 hours at the Hearst Castle where you aren’t allowed to eat or drink anything. .. no coffee anywhere on our route… just to find out the castle cafe was closed when we got back from the tour. I said all that to say this.. The young man behind the counter was closing and the look on my face must have spoke to him because he quickly told me he would make us food and me an Americana.. first his kindness brought tears to my tired eyes and secondly that coffee was THE BEST I’ve had. The hot sandwiches and fresh salad were delicious and the portions were large. We took half of it back up the lodge to eat later. This one decision by him to accommodate me and my grandsons completely turned this stressful day into a much better one. The cafe and store were clean, bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. The staff were friendly and helpful and the area around the cafe and store is peaceful and attractive. Plenty of parking and the walkways were easy to navigate. I highly recommend this establishment and look forward to visiting again.“

“It's a little rustic, but very hospitable. There is nothing else around, so you have this section of the CA coast to yourself and the other guests. The restaurant is great, and the portions are big. We ate there for 3 days and never had a bad meal.“

“Lovely lunch and wine tasting spot!! Andora was our knowledgeable server. Very personable.“
