We ate lunch here and it hit the spot! Huge menu and portion sizes, great food and prices. I had a club sandwich with fries and the husband had a burger, both were great!

This cheery high ceilinged restaurant was our find after arriving in Avalon from Dana Point on the Cataliner Flyer boat transfer. Our breakfast included Buckwheat pancakes, and French Toast with bacon. Both were excellent and French toast thick and fluffy with big scoop of butter. Two kinds of syrup offered; maple and boysenberry. Buckwheat didn't taste that much different from... More

We went for a late breakfast at this place. Food was excellent as was the service. The pancakes and eggs are delicious. Prices were very reasonable and also quite fair. They were happy to provide us with substitutions - as there were some things that came in our plates that we did not want. The waitress was awesome - a... More

Had the Belgian waffle w/great strawberries & bananas. I rarely order this & would order again! Bacon was perfect. The owner Muriel was so amazing. The view perfect. Would definitely go there again.

I usually only go to the pancake cottage because I love the owner, Muriel. She is an absolute firecracker! The menu is huge, I don't think I'll ever try everything, its that long. Huge selection for breakfast or lunch. Try the Monte Cristo for brunch, tasty... Omelette's are good and I like the coffee. The location is good as you... More

Chunks of potatoes cooked with bell pepper and onion, very yummy. Bacon was crisp and flavorful. Views of the bay were amazing. The waiter brought us a carafe of coffee, which was... More

I should say, we thought the food on Catalina was pretty awful in general, but this meal was very tasty! Bit of a wait for Saturday morning brunch, but the food was nicely done and the portions hearty. For Catalina standards, it was a good value for the money. After paying $14 for a small, frozen pizza at a "restaurant"... More

My friends and I were looking forward to having breakfast here as it was highly recommended by many of the locals we spoke to. We were sadly disappointed because although the service was great, the food was not. Coffee was weak, biscuits and gravy were goopy and bland. The sausage links were of good quality, meaty and tasty, but you... More
