Allison's Country Cafe
3429 Telegraph Rd, Ventura, CA
Crema's Take
“Allison's Country Cafe is a beloved Ventura institution where biscuits and gravy arrive like pillowy clouds and country-style breakfast entrees are prepared with genuine care—think perfectly fried steaks and generous portions that justify the long-standing loyalty from regulars. The quaint, adorably decorated space (duck decorations and all) creates the kind of slow, unhurried dining experience that feels like visiting a friend's kitchen rather than grabbing a quick meal. Fair warning: prices run on the higher side, but the warmth of the place and those legendary biscuits keep people coming back for over a decade.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Slow-sit spot. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.
