Old guard sailors , local billionaires, tourists & folks from the trailer park patronize this original 50s style diner . They've kept the prices pre-pandemic. I enjoy the view of the marina , but the food is just ok.

Pretty good portion sizes, flavor and quality is top tier. Best of all is atmosphere.

By the marina with standard diner style breakfast. No Amex or Apple Pay. Great environment. Fun beaches, piers, walking, or biking nearby.

The Galley Cafe is a local old school diner that's been around for longer than I have! It's been family-owned since 1957 and it's only open from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 This is a gem of a classic breakfast & lunch spot that has about 30 tables as well as counter seating that serves solid & no frills food. I love the breakfast burrito with pico de gallo. Expect a waiting list on the weekends, but it always hits the spot. It's right next to the marina and the service is prompt and friendly. Friendly regulars and neighborhood vibes! I love the Galley Cafe!

There is no high chair, so it is inconvenient to bring children. The milkshake is too sweet.Kid-friendliness: Inconvenient

Definitely a local place. Great diner food. But they need to update the menu prices on Yelp. They aren't bad just incorrect at the date of this writing.

Ive been friends with Devon for a while but recently she went down a path of drugs and lust. She's never been like this till she started working for the owner of this establishment, frank. Ive seen their text messages and frankly Im disgusted. I hope this review can open the eyes of those who work here and put an end to this madness. No worker should be getting special treatment like Devon. Unfair and illegal.

I regret to inform you of a less than satisfactory experience my wife and I had at the Galley Cafe, which was listed as a participating establishment in our Marriott Vacation Club Privilege dining program. Upon arrival, we received no greeting and decided to seat ourselves at a large table in the back. It took 15 minutes before our water order was taken, and curiously, another server approached us shortly after to take the same order, having just finished a lengthy personal conversation at the counter. The quality of the meal, particularly the omelet, was underwhelming, meriting a score of only 4 out of 10 due to its soft and mushy texture. Additionally, when it came time to settle the bill, I was informed that my Marriott American Express card was not accepted, which necessitated the use of an alternative payment method. To our dismay, after paying, we were approached by a server who requested that we vacate our table for a party of six, despite no visible patrons being waiting for seating. This request was particularly disconcerting given that we were the only minority customers present and had not been properly acknowledged until we were asked to relinquish our table. This series of events left us feeling unwelcome and raised concerns about the level of service and respect afforded to all patrons.
