Super nice view of the ocean. The ambiance and deck themselves are 5 stars. We come here often to have a coffee and just take in the ocean.

The food, unfortunately, is a bit of hit and miss. Their Reuben sandwich was good, but the potatoes in the potato salad were very underdone and the eggs Benedict were meh.

We had an amazing breakfast this morning. The food was extremely fresh, not to mention great espresso. The hometown hospitality was second to none just like the view. And if you want something sweet, they have a great pastry case..

Great fresh homemade breakfast prepared with care and an amazing view. Perfect start to our day at the beach. Dog friendly with hiking and tidepools nearby. Don't hesitate to give it a try.

Love this place! Great food. Was there for brunch. The Breakfast Sandwich was amazing. Killer views over the ocean, and a truly local establishment. Great friendly service and dog friendly too. I saw them bringing in freshly caught fish and some spare ribs for later in the evening. They have an outdoor kitchen, and all their stuff is locally made. Wish I could stay for dinner, but maybe next time!

Absolutely fantastic when all the other places were packed or busy and to be honest, very rude, this place came through as a warm welcome for my family, a great breakfast for a very hungry family. A huge blessing, greatly appreciated!

My husband and I stopped here for our last real meal before doing Lost Coast Trail. They are so sweet and the food was amazing. They make their own English Muffins!! We will be going back for a stay in Shelter Cove and stopping by here in the future!
