I also love the lunch menu. The staff is always happy to see you. Take a drive to Corralitos, its not far from Aptos, or Wattsonvile and enjoy the drive and very small town appeal.

The French toast is one of my favorites.Kid-friendliness: They have portions for kids too.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, they have a ramp -no steps and seating for wheelchairs“

“The service was superb. Our server was friendly and attentive. The food came quickly and everything was delicious. The Hideout Burger my husband ordered was delicious and cooked perfectly. The extra side salad we ordered with it was fresh and large enough for my husband to share plenty with me. The server brought me a plate for sharing without me even asking. I ordered the swordfish special. The fish was buttery and flavorful. The risotto was equally delicious. And the veggies that came with it were fresh and the presentation was lovely. Portions were very large. We observed the staff quickly cleaning tables and sweeping up underneath the tables. Everything looked in order at all times. The outdoor seating was nicely spaced and the heaters made the outdoor seating very comfortable. We enjoyed everything about our experience. We will return.“

I had chicken mole; it wasn't great nor was it bad. I have heard their tacos are great. Will try next time. Again, family owned restaurant, very nice waiter and greeter. Nice place.“

“Great space! The owners are amazing, very welcoming, and the wine is amazing!“

“I’m not a coffee drinker but have to say their bagel with egg is the best. The egg is light and fluffy and you can add several options. It’s always cooked to order and hot. This place has become my go-to breakfast place. The oatmeal is also pretty good.“

“Great selection of beers, good food. Ordered the vegetarian meatloaf with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Good flavors. Nice outdoor seating. Service a bit slow considering it was not very busy, but maybe it's new Year's day slowness ?.I'd definitely be back!“

“Spent a lovely day at Cottage Creek last Saturday celebrating a friend's birthday. Everything was excellent, from the beautiful venue with many gorgeous old trees providing shade, the gracious and attentive staff, the live music, and of course the incredible wine. You can tell the owners take great pride in their business and in customer service. Expectations were exceeded! Thank you Cottage Creek!!“

“We started to come for coffee and ended upHaving the wonderful tasty homemade soups they are offering. Every single choice on the menu is healthy and tasty. Coffee is very good also. What a wonderful hidden gem coffee shop with a great atmosphere and service. Definitely must visit.“

“What a great laid back venue, with both inside and patio seating. The beers are excellent, and the appetizers are exceptional! Owned by a local, give this place a go before shopping at Staff of Life next door. Check out their special events as well.“

“This is my favorite brewery in the south Santa Cruz area. The have tons of great brews, some favorites are their porter and their c minus. They have a grab and go fridge with four packs to take home. They have food trucks on the weekends and it is very kid friendly.“

“I am sold on Sea Harvest. I have been to the Monterey location before, but this was an even better experience! Service was prompt and the menu is straightforward. I ordered a bowl of clam chowder and a side of French fries-- expecting enough food for one, but there was closer to three servings! Great deal for the price. The chowder was savory and perfect for a chilly day. The French fries were crisp and paired perfectly with the chowder. Both the inside and outside are comfortable with a gorgeous view of the bay on one side and the flumes on the other. I've come back with friends now many times and it's still a favorite!“

“Manuel's is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Santa Cruz area. The food is so good that I crave it! Considering how there is always a line of customers out the door (even on a Monday) and the dining area is always packed, Manuel's servers and chefs are quick! And get this: the service is always attentive, friendly, and fast! I've eaten here twice, and loved it both times. I would come here again and again. Only heads up is that the prices are a little steep for my blood. For my daughter and I, we ordered 2 meals: a combo plate and the Monday special that comes with salad and dessert. The portions were huge, and everything was tasty. We also enjoyed 2 baskets of complimentary chips and salsa. We didn't order anything else, including drinks, and the bill was $60+tip. As long as you're ok with the price tag, Manuel's is the place to go for good Mexican food with an upbeat, family-friendly atmosphere.“

“What a beautiful oasis right on the road! The coffee is fantastic, and the pastries look incredibly tempting (didn't order any, sticking to my keto diet?). The space itself is so inviting, with every detail showing the care and love put into it. I absolutely love it!“

“The food was amazing, 10/10 and the service was amazing! Very kind staff! The live band playing really topped it all off, they play every Thursday night and they were great! This is a great spot to grab a quick dinner with the family if you're in the area!“

“This is my favorite place to be on a weekend afternoon!The owners are absolutely the best! The rest of the staff is outstanding. When anyone comes to visit this is the place to take them to. They are family and pet friendly. They bring in different food vendors that are also fantastic! The cider is great! Get a flight if it's your first time. My personal favorites are Don't make me Blush or a cider pop on a warm day. During the winter they have hot cider too!“

“I recently tried Pixie and enjoyed my sandwich very much! They offer gluten-free bread and I found that half of my sandwich was quite filling. They have tons of sides and drink options to accompany your meal. The staff was super kind and on it. Can't wait to go back.“

“So good. Great atmosphere, yummy food, super polite staff, kid friendly“

“Lovely spot to pop in w the pupper. Great place to get sunshine and good vibes. Coffee is nice. I ordered an almond croissant. I paid almost 12$ for two of them and I wouldn’t order it again. Although almond croissants are my favorite I guess I’m spoiled. It wasn’t very fresh tasting. Had a tasty cappuccino though and staff was lovely and I like the large industrial space w pops of color and plants.Parking: Busy full parking but convenient if there’s space available. I’m here at noon on a Tuesday and it’s full.“

Our first time at The Fish House but definitely not the last! You can view our “Food Coma - The Fish House Bar and Grill Watsonville, CA - Jon and Kristel Coma” episode on YouTube.“

“Moistest Beer! Service was excellent! The ambiance is inviting and familiar. It felt like having a beer in the garage with your friends after a long day. The beer is absolutely amazing! I'd recommend the "Hasta La Vista" west coast dipa. I will be back to support these awesome people and brag about their beers to anyone who can hear! Thanks Slough!“

“What a lovely deli! The sandwiches were great! We hada real variety: bacon for 1, pastrami for another, vegetarian caprese for a third, and I had Italian meatball. A variety of pasta salads, too! The staff kindly set up the outdoor seating for us, cleaning the tables and drying chairs-- and Mother Nature obliged with some warm March sunshine! Lovely place to enjoy with friends! ❤“
