Crema's Take

“This beloved Santa Cruz breakfast destination has earned its reputation through exceptional homemade fare—their cinnamon rolls and French toast are particularly legendary—paired with genuinely warm service and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that keeps locals and road-trippers alike coming back. The generous portions and dog-friendly outdoor seating make it worth the expected wait, though note that it's cash-only and closes after lunch service. With a 4.7-star rating from over 1,200 reviews, Linda's Seabreeze Café captures that rare magic of a neighborhood gem that actually lives up to the hype.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly. Cash only.
