Crush Cafe, Santa Barbara, CA
I didn’t plan any breakfast places ahead of time, because I usually only need some coffee when on vacation and I am good to go. Well with LALA time and in room instant coffee combined, I as quite grumpy by the time people started moving, so I hopped online and found someplace that served a gluten free breakfast and I could get a caffeine fix.
Easily the best place we ate during the trip. Everything was good from the coffee to the breakfast sandwhiches. It is pretty hidden away in Santa Barbara, and I am glad I found it during my quick search.
I would go into what I ate, but there were four of us, and between us we ordered maybe 12 things off the menu, between drinks and breakfast plates and sides, and every single item was good. I believe the owner was working the counter, and she was friendly, brought us our food on outside where we had pulled two small tables together, checked on us several times and cleaned up dishes as we finished. It was amazing service for a place where you order at the counter.
If you enjoy a tasty breakfast, this is the place to go. Not much of a view being that is is on a small back street about 2 blocks off of state, but the food was impressive. Next door is a Crush cupcakes, but traveling with the gluten free girls means I have to keep my sweet tooth in check.
