I had the waffle combo breakfast because I just couldn't decide between savory and sweet. But there were a lot of very tasty looking specials, my husband ordered one of them and really enjoyed his meal. Although your typical breakfast fare, everything looked very good and the ingredients were fresh. It is not a large place but cozy. We came... More

My sister's and I stumbled upon this restaurant while driving down Highway 1. We were drawn in by the reviews. Lunch was good. But the coconut bread pudding we had for dessert was worth a specific visit. Awesome!!

We walked to this place one cloudy morning in Santa Cruz, it was quite the trek and when we arrived and I saw that the place was rather small, I was ready to give up. It was fully packed but we were told to wait for about 10 min during which we could have coffee outside on some benches.As there... More

We came for breakfast to the Seabreeze Cafe after our cousin recommended it. The food was delicious and inspired. I had the green tofu scramble and my husband had a huge sausage omelet. Both of our kids devoured the pancakes. The place is very small, but the wait was worth it. And the wait staff were really friendly. I highly... More

I almost hate to tell people about the Seabreeze Cafe because it will just make it even more crowded. The food is awesome. The baked goods are baked fresh daily, the cinnamon rolls are to die for, and the cakes, bread puddings, and pies or crisps are amazing. Each day there is a different muffin and a different dessert, but... More

You'll annoy Tex and Claire, the owners; Linda's been gone awhile. Good food, very well prepared; impeccable service and delivery. Home-made cinnamon roll or muffin with every meal, and they're not small. Families, neighborhood people, and folks who came in Porches sit side by side. Friendly, cheeky staff. I'll never forget the time the waitresses dressed up like bacon and... More

People who live in Santa Cruz know about this great little restaurant, most tourists haven’t found it yet. What I love is the great breakfasts and it opens at 6:00am. The wonderful Tofu Scrambles are large, hearty and a great way to start a busy day. Being GF vegan I had no trouble with the breakfast menu; lunch menu might... More

At first I wasn't sure judging from the outside. But on the inside the staff is very friendly. The food is great quality, not to greasy. I ordered the bacon and cheese omelet , they definitely don't lack with the serving size. My boyfriend had the tostada omelet, that came with a tortilla and fresh salsa. He made two full... More

Absurdly popular -- there's often a waiting line at lunch and always a waiting line on weekend mornings.
