Purple Owl Cafe

"Just stopped in for a latte but my husband couldn't resist the sound of the mushroom crepe and man, was it good. We split it, it was huge and packed with flavorful mushrooms, onion (but not too many because I'm not a cooked onion lover) and yummy cheese. The crepe itself was fantastic too. It was a struggle not to try other things. I don't think you can go wrong here. Great service too!"

"Tasty food, I love the vegan options and the variety. It's a hidden gem! Pretty interior and very friendly staff. Very nice atmosphere. And most of all everything was delicious. Good vegan cheese used on our tartine focaccias Fun Guy and spinach&feta and delicious vegan banana cake. We also got two hot drinks, ube tea and white mocha made with coconut milk. You can choose your milk from regular, oat, coconut. The menu is awesome because they can make almost everything both ways, regular or vegan. There is many of vegetarian dishes and many dishes with meat too. We really loved it ."

"My family and I enjoyed the food, the games, the music, all was great to experience. The coffee and kids' hot chocolate drinks were made exactly as requested, with specifics met. When we go back to Julian, we are definitely coming back here! Food was a delicious surprise. The fresh salad we shared was plenty. You won't be disappointed if you visit this little place when in town."

"It's a cute vegetarian cafe next to the Julian Sheriff's Department. It's about a block away from Main Street. Spacious restaurant with indoor seating and some outdoor seating without heat lamps. Restrooms around the left side of the building. We really enjoyed the savory crepes! The focaccia sandwich with the impossible sausage was plain and nothing special. The Green Smoothie was really good. Not too sweet."

"Good coffee option esp when the main street is heaving. Don't expect a meal tho, no matter what it says here on Google. Kitchen is closed all the time even though they seem to be cooking crepes in there (see video). Coffee is decent but the milk tea options are good"
