Crema's Take

This beloved Oceanside institution has been serving up breakfast classics since the '80s in a genuinely laid-back surf shack atmosphere, complete with surfboards lining the walls and that easy-going local energy that can't be faked. The kitchen turns out standout dishes like their famous Chili Verde omelet with loaded potato pancakes and a notoriously good coffee cake, all with generous portions that won't leave you hungry. Snag a seat at the counter for zero wait and a ringside view of the action, or settle into their spacious interior and outdoor patio while soaking in that unforced beachy vibe just steps from Highway 101.

What to expect

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

One of the better breakfast options in Oceanside. Located right on HWY 101 it’s not very far from the ocean and carries that casual, beachy feel to the restaurant. It’s quite large on the inside with many different sitting areas as well as covered outdoor seating, which is where…
