Crema's Take
“Tucked inside a Del Mar office building, TOAST Cafe is a surprisingly serene escape with a spacious indoor dining area and lovely outdoor patio that feels worlds away from typical strip-mall coffee shops. The kitchen takes breakfast seriously—think vibrant, fresh Turkish-inspired eggs and perfectly executed sandwiches—pairing excellent traditional coffee drinks with food that's clearly made with care and attention to presentation. Whether you're settling in with your laptop for hours or meeting a friend for a leisurely lunch, the spotless, welcoming atmosphere and genuinely friendly staff make this feel like a well-kept local secret worth discovering.”

I went to Toast Cafe today for the first time and my only regret was not having went sooner! I went with a friend and we split the turkey sandwich and the fried chicken sandwich and were absolutely blown away— not just by the quality of the ingredients but the overall flavor of each sandwich. You can tell everything about this cafe was so done thoughtfully and intentionally… from the menu, to the interior/exterior decor, right down to the hiring. I mean they truly had the kindest staff. I often find myself looking for a cafe to treat business partners to and it’s rare to find a place that ticks all the boxes. Service, atmosphere, food were all a 10/10. I had such a wonderful experience here and can’t wait to come back to try more of the menu. If you are in the area and considering coming here, close this review and go!!
This is a very nice place to have a quiet lunch with friends. It's located in an office building and has lovely indoor dining area with lots of seating and an outdoor patio with more seating. Our friendly cashier was Larry and he told us about his special Turkey sandwich. You'll just have to come in and find out for yourself what modifications are made to their Turkey sandwich to make it special. Lol. My friend loved it! I ordered their burger with truffle fries. Love the juicy burger but don't recommend paying extra for the bland and dry truffle fries.
A truly hidden gem !!! Easy parking and spotless / serene place inside a corporate building. Food is vibrant and fresh. The presentation is impeccable, the service superb and the staff super friendly including the chefs …. Wife and tried everything and LOVE their Turkish Breakfast!!!! Being originally from France, we grew up on great food and this place is not only delicious but tasty and healthy!!! Well done folks and bravo !!!
We came back to Toast Cafe after having an amazing Turkish breakfast here before, and once again, it did not disappoint! The eggs were absolutely delicious, the spread with dill was perfect, and the tahini with date syrup tasted just like halva. Everything was fresh, the veggies, the fruit and every bite was full of flavor. And of course, the coffee was excellent. Definitely one of my favorite spots! ❤️☕️
What a surprise! This is not your normal coffee shop located in an office building. It has indoor seating that can easily fit 50+ people. They have a beautiful outdoor patio that can fit another 40 people. I see a sign here at my table, that says you can even have an event here that they will host for you. In addition to Coffee and espresso, they serve beer and wine, as well as smoothies and organic juices. I had about three hours to kill between meetings and wanted to try something other than the usual coffee houses and this was a wonderful surprise. In summary, this is a great meet up location with lots of private, intimate seating areas and as I’m posting this, I’m watching one of the employees meticulously arrange flowers on the counter as an added little welcoming touch. Oh, I had their house coffee, and it was fabulous. Enjoy!
