Sugar Shack
2319 S El Camino Real, San Clemente, CA
Crema's Take
“Rose's Sugar Shack is a beloved mom-and-pop breakfast spot where the owner greets you with genuine warmth and humor, making every visit feel like catching up with an old friend. Their Eggs Benedict are genuinely exceptional, and the breakfast burritos and cinnamon rolls have built a loyal following among both surfers stopping by post-session and families road-tripping through San Clemente. It's the kind of place where Rose knows your name and the food tastes like someone actually cares about getting it right.”

What a lovely breakfast 🍳 We were driving back to Los Angeles county from San Diego and decided to stop in for a late breakfast 🥞 We were not disappointed. We were warmly greeted and provided seating and menus. Water and coffee were promptly delivered. Prior reviews are correct about the cinnamon roll…it came out warm and totally yummy!😋 The zorba scramble was very tasty and the steak and eggs were delicious. We would definitely come back!
We had a delicious breakfast at Rose’s Sugsr Shack this morning, the Eggs Benedict were possibly the best I’ve ever had and my husband raved about his eggs/sausage/hash brown’s plate. Great service and great food!
I found this place after my surf session and was starving. Their breakfast burritos and cinnamon roles always hit the spot. The owner Rose is lovely & welcoming every time I visit. 🌹
It’s a small local mom and pop run restaurant. Rose is friendly and told us some jokes while we waited for all of our party of 5 to get there. Enjoy all their omelettes, eggs Benedict and surfers revenge was a plate of hash browns with a ton of veggies. Roast beef dip was on a nice size French roll. Good portions and regular coffee get refilled.
Beware this place is terrible. I almost never leave a bad Review, but I felt obligated to let others know that this place is not any good. Overall I don’t think this place deserves 1 star. Chairs- extremely uncomfortable Facility- old out dated not clean, smells Coffee- cheap cold coffee and cheap powder creamer. Cup still had lip stick on it from previous customer. When it was mentioned to waitress, she poured the coffee that was in dirty cup into another cup and handed it back to us 🤦♂️. Toast- suppose to be sour-dough , was cheap white bread. Hash browns- toasted on exterior, uncooked frozen inside- not eatable 🤢 My $25 omelette with crab was terrible 🤮. When waitress ask if I didn’t like it, I told her it was not good, she said know one really likes that one 😳. I told her hash brown was not properly cooked, she replied that’s too bad, then said I hope the rest of your day is nice. The other 4 family members with me also said their food was disgusting, possibly used rancid oil to cook it. Only edible food was the chicken strips and fries my daughter ate. Service was poor at best. Atmosphere - music was outdated. I felt uncomfortable from the time I entered the place.
