There out of business....
Huge meals served fast
The man taking our order was rude. I asked if the potatoes could be well, he said no sharply instead sorry no. He reiterated it four times. Then I handed him my debt card and he goes I will never take card. Just the customer service skills were that of someone who hates to work at a Santa Cruz staple. Maybe Staples is more his speed.
Paula's is a beloved restaurant that offers a delightful dining experience. The laid-back and relaxing atmosphere is enhanced by a surfer theme, with surfboard decor, vintage surfer photos, and Beach Boys music playing in the background. The food has been praised for its great taste, with particular mentions of delicious pancakes, well-cooked eggs, and bacon. The respectful service is appreciated by diners, and the budget-friendly prices make it an excellent value for the quality of food and ambiance. This iconic Santa Cruz establishment is a long-time Pleasure Point staple, known for its classic, no-frills, fresh food at affordable prices. Customers can enjoy their breakfast in a vintage conversion van, surrounded by old rare photos on the walls. It is recommended to arrive early, especially on weekends, as the restaurant's popularity can result in long lines of eager customers.
