Smoked Salmon Scramble
Huge portions, perfectly cooked, never disappoints! I've been here, getting the salmon scramble and a mimosa, on my birthday for the last four years since I moved to SB. Can't beat it!
May Lambert, Please
My favorite sandwich with the best curly fries! This place never disappoints! Great food and great people! We've been coming here for 28 years!
Jonathan Winters Gone Fishin'

King Olds Combo
Summerland Beach Cafe has the best food and best service of any restaurant. I routinely drive 2 hours on the weekend with my kids just to eat at Summerland. Thank you for all you do.
Creative Stereo
Delish!' Omelette and potatoes super tasty!! Awesome coffee. Super nice staff and great overall diner. Will definitely be coming Back here
Tuna Melt Sandwich
Anything that either my husband and I order, no matter what, is delicious. The portions are good sized, they are sweet to our little dog, and the staff are always friendly and helpful! The amazing view is an added plus!
Any Omelette
My husband and I happened upon the Summerland Beach Cafe about 20 years ago and have been frequenting there at least several times a year since. We've had countless omelettes, 2,2,2, salads, burgers, biscuits and gravy, eggs Benedict. It's all delicious! You can't beat the coming together of a charming, historic house, a great menu, and terrific staff! Don't miss this one!
The Bikini Factory
Besides loving the name, this is what I order every year on my birthday! I love the addition of sausage in my omelette.
Smoked Salmon Scramble
I've been passing the Summerland Beach Cafe while heading north for many years. I finally had the opportunity to stop by and check it out. What a pleasant surprise!!! Summerland Beach Cafe is a very charming and quaint historic home built in the 1800's. Their menu has a great selection, so I decided to order the Smoked Salmon Scramble. The flavor of the smoked salmon blended with the eggs and spices was the most amazing combination that you will crave again once you leave. You will want to make Summerland Beach Cafe a regular stop, and don't forget to experience the Smoked Salmon Scramble. I highly recommend it!!!
Crabby Bills Benedict
About six times a year, I make the trek from my home in San Juan Capistrano to the Central Coast for vacation. I leave at 8am to make sure that I'll arrive at my first stop for a great breakfast. I have never been disappointed with the service, the meal or the wonderful people I encounter at this amazing restaurant. In fact, I'll be there tomorrow for my favorite meal! Crabby Bills Benedict. Best ever!
Cheeseburger of Paradise
The food here is excellent! On top of the burgers, we also had chili cheese fries. Also amazing! We ate in a little patio in the back, and then make the short drive to the beach across the freeway and had a fantastic day.
Tuna Melt Sandwich
I love a good tuna melt and this one always satisfies. This place has the best food and great side options for the sandwiches too.
Loon Point
Love this sandwich. Great flavor and is best with a side of curly fries. Can't recommend this place more!
Wednesday's Only Pancakes
I had the buckwheat pancakes with caramelized bananas and walnuts, and they were AMAZING. Perfectly fluffy, great flavor, and a heaping serving for a good price (on the specials menu). Definitely worth a try!
May Lambert, Please
Wonderful, with lots of tender turkey, bacon and cheese. Summerland Beach Cafe is one of our favorites for both breakfast and lunch, and we try to eat there (and now with takeout) several times a month. Staff is very friendly and helpful!
Grand American Fare
The breakfast and coffee are so good. The atmosphere is warm, friendly, and sophisticated! The staff pays attention to detail and they deliver a wonderful experience!
QAD On The Hill

Smoked Salmon Scramble
Best scramble in town with yummy Smoked salmon!
Cheeseburger of Paradise
The best burger and it comes with curly fry that are excellent. When I am availed I goes on Tuesdays for burger madness
Summerland Ranch Hand
We always come to Summerland Beach Cafe on our trips whether day or Summer out of LA. The ranch hand like all items on the menu can feed a very hungry soul or shared amongst a couple little tummies. The food is so good and filling. It has a little bit of everything for anyone to enjoy. Staff is always so friendly and hospitable. A gem in Summerland.
Bodacious Cinnamon Roll
DELICIOUS cinnamon roll! I have to get one "for the table" every time.
Miller Hotel Eggs Benedict
My hubs and I have been going here so many years and have always loved the people, food and location. Super stoked they have gluten free options! Food is always fresh and served with a smile. Hope to see them soon!
Bloody Mary
One of the best Bloody Marys I've had, best in SB TOP 3 and best deal for sure!!
Engine Company No. 2
So I've been coming here since the 1980's when it was still called The Omelette Parlour, and have various favorite dishes over the years. But for the last 10 years or so I've been mostly getting Engine Company No. 2 and asking for it "scrambled". It's just spicy enough and with the sharp cheddar cheese reminds me of my childhood having omelettes during a month in Brooklyn in the 1950's.
Crabby Bills Benedict
Best ever
Tuna Melt Sandwich

Galen Clark Oatmeal
The best oatmeal ever!!!!! Love it with bananas and walnuts- Great healthy breakfast to start the day!!!!!🌞😎❣️
Any Omelette
This place has been a favorite for so many years. My wife and I started a family custom bringing each of our five children here To start their birthday right enjoying a fantastic birthday breakfast.
Two, Two and Two
I was very pleased with Summerland Cafe's service and food. Sierra was an excellent waitress. She took care of all our needs in a timely manner. I had the Two, Two and Two with Gluten free bread. It's been years since I've been able to eat French Toast. It was delicious and cooked just right. The bacon was just right. I got potatoes instead of eggs and they were perfect. The ambiance was cozy. I enjoyed the antique photography. There's something to enjoy everywhere you look. You can't go wrong with Summerland Cafe. As cafes go, it's a great choice.
Miller Hotel Eggs Benedict
When you want to step back in time and enjoy really, really great food in a charming venue the Summerland Beach Cafe is the place to go. Great food. Great staff. Great Service.
May Lambert, Please
If you made me pick one, I'd have to go with the incredible May Lambert sandwich ... toasted to perfection on delicious bread, this fresh turkey and cheese, piled high, is unbeatable. And, with the choice of sides and a delicious big sliced pickle, you can't beat it. Then again, I have probably enjoyed every single item on the menu, at one time or another. The breakfasts are to die for, and you simply cannot go wrong for lunch, with breakfasts prepared at anytime. The service is terrific and there is a great vibe always present. Do yourself a favor and visit the Summerland Beach Cafe. And its dog-friendly environment on the patio makes it even more welcoming. You can't beat the ease of their takeout business, either, in these socially distanced times. It's fast, clean, and fun. And the jewel of Summerland.
Monster Hot Chocolate
This is by far the best hot chocolate I've ever had. Huge mug with a big dollop of whipped cream and the best chocolate flavor!
Grand American Fare
Good combo of everything so you don't have to choose just one :) Summerland beach cafe is the best and always hits the spot!
Summerland Ranch Hand
Excellent service, atmosphere and food!
Two, Two and Two
The bacon here is the best I have had. Love the porch and the friendly service. This is our favorite place to eat breakfast. We had lunch and it was just as delicious.
Junior French Toast
Tasty gluten free French toast with bananas and strawberries on top! A very special way to start the day. Excellent and friendly staff, as always - and dog friendly on the comfortable patio is our favorite place to be.
May Lambert, Please
Super fun place to get great food and your dog is always welcome. They go outta their way to make breakfast or lunch your best meal of the day. Just say May Lambert please!!!! Simply the best.
King Olds Combo
Summerland Beach Cafe is my favorite place for breakfast! Great food, great environment, and service! The waffles and bacon are my favorite and don't forget some orange juice!
