Crema's Take
“This is a hotel cafe attached to the Best Western that gets wildly inconsistent reviews—some visitors praise the breakfast and friendly service, while others report kitchen mishaps like serving canned soup as homemade and running out of ingredients mid-shift. It's fine for a convenient meal if you're staying at the hotel, but the 3.9 rating reflects real gaps in execution and reliability that suggest you shouldn't plan a special trip here. If you're in Del Mar proper, there are better coffee and food options worth seeking out.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Since this cafe is on the premises of the Best Western Del Mar Hotel, we had breakfast here for two mornings. This is a small cafe that is on the premises of the hotel. The staff were very courteous, friendly, and the food was good. Very standard breakfast fare, but a good…
