The savory pies are great and the seasonal and holiday cookies are just fabulous. There is something for everyone. This is a La Jolla landmark and tradition.- Kate KlampeSeptember 12, 2018Great selection of lunch and dinner foods, side salads, soups and the desserts. You have got to check out the cute cookies and those gorgeous cakes.Upvoted 3 days ago
- Barbara SlavinFebruary 2, 2014Dine outside. If you are lucky you will sit near the adorable dachshund sitting in the basket of a bicycle. So cute, friendly and calm.
The produce comes from the owners' farm in Julian. Fresh ingredients make their dishes a delight. My favorite is the the spinach & mushroom quiche with fruit and wheat bread.- Hans HauptDecember 14, 2010The Chocolate Cheescake and Apple Pie are two of the best desserts on the menu. Make sure to enjoy them with a cup of Macadamia and Chocolate infused coffee.
Alli SApril 16, 2016all of the food here is amazing- and you can't go wrong with the veggie lasagna!!
If you want a lot of those fancy cookies, you need to order in advance. Like a week or so.
