La Marea Cafe & Pizzeria
311 Capitola Ave, Soquel, CA
Crema's Take
“La Marea's inventive bagels—think jalapeño cheddar and avocado-topped combinations—are genuinely worth the drive, and they're backed up by legitimately excellent espresso and pastries that regulars can't stop raving about. The staff is genuinely warm and the vibe is perfect for lingering, though you should know this quality costs: expect to spend around $25 per person. If you're willing to pay for standout food and drinks in a place where people actually want to sit down, this is a genuine gem.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Run, don’t walk to La Marea! I had been following them on social media for a while, drooling at every post. I have been waiting to get my butt there and finally did today and let me tell you, it was worth the wait! I ordered the farmers market bagel and every bite was a symphony…
Finally some good food and coffee in the village! So stoked to have this place to walk to. The bagels pizza and drinks are all so good. Im obsessed. The pistachio scone is always a must get too.
