Frommer's Review

A restored 1894 beach bungalow, this charming cafe is named for an early resident's hometown (Brockton, MA) and occupies a breathtaking perch overlooking La Jolla Cove. The biggest buzz is at breakfast, when you can enjoy inventive dishes such as soufflélike "Coast Toast" (the house take on French toast) and Greek "steamers" (eggs scrambled with an espresso steamer, and then mixed with feta cheese, tomato, and basil). Breakfasts are served until noon weekdays, till 3pm weekends. Lunch highlights include homemade soups and salads, as well as sandwiches such as the grilled organic salmon BLT. The somewhat less successful supper menu includes seafood and steak dishes, plus paella, pastas, and grilled meats. But, not to put too fine a point on it, any time you can actually enjoy this spectacular sea view, Brockton's food tastes good. Note: Steep stairs from the street limit wheelchair access.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
