Café Topes

"Stopped by during my solo trip from NY due to good reviews. This place did not disappoint. It was a busy late Saturday afternoon but the service was quick and friendly and the food was tasty! Would def come back when in the area again which is hopefully soon because I love it here!"

"Best breakfast and lunch in the area, maybe even SoCal. I've been here a few times. Food is outstanding, never had a bad meal here. Food is always on point , fresh ingredients and good portions. I highly recommend this place. Service is great, you order at the counter, get a number and they bring food to your table. Plenty of outside seating too."

"Absolutely delicious. Both sweet and savory items on the menu are equally strong and flavorful. Everyone will find something they like here. The avocado toast is delicious."

"Great cafe spot. Came here for breakfast with my family. It was recommended. We ordered the tri-tip eggs Benedict, French toast with a side of bacon, and two kids pancake plates. Wife gave the Benedict a 10/10. I wanted something different so I went with French toast. I really enjoyed it. Not overly sweet, but you can sweeten it up if needed. Bacon was crispy and made to perfection. Kids loved their pancakes. I recommend this place."

"Café Topes is a cute location, but I am surprised it has such a high rating given that the food itself was not amazing. The atmosphere is very nice as you're close to the ocean, and the interior is decorated very cutely. I ordered the pork belly Benny and the cinnamon roll, as well as a Mexican mocha. The pork belly had a lot of fat and was very chewy, definitely ranking on the lower end for pork belly Benedict for me. I prefer the pork belly jabanero Benedict from snooze a.m. The eggs were good, but everything together was just alright. The hashbrowns tasted too oily and bland. My Mexican Mocha was alright, but lacked flavor. The cinnamon roll was the most disappointing. I ordered it dirty, which means it came loaded with cream cheese icing. The portions were nice and the food looked beautiful and was plated very nicely, but the taste was sort of bland and not something that would make me want to come back. The cream cheese icing was not sweet and tasted more like something savory rather than a dessert item. The cinnamon roll itself was rather dry, and I was disappointed overall. The service was nice and the atmosphere was very nice as well, but I was disappointed by the flavors of the food. I would not recommend this place over others, and I am a bit puzzled by the high rating. Everything looked picture perfect, but the quality of the food felt sacrificed. Overall, it was good for a quick bite, but I would not come back to this location."
