Santa Cruz Diner

Our waiter was on it! He was an older Hispanic man, and we really appreciated his attentiveness. As we were sitting & eating, we saw him cleaning windows and he even went outside and picked up trash. You could just tell what a good worker he is. Overall, the service was great. The food, however, was not. I ordered the #1, and the hashbrowns had no flavor. I added some salt, and that helped a little, but I ended up just not eating them. The bacon was all fat, which I guess some people would enjoy, but I didn't. Our son ordered the Mexican Skillet, and he was disappointed. He also said it was bland, just not any flavor. The hot chocolate was good. I do like the general atmosphere. They could use some touching up to their signs outside. I appreciate that they were open early in the morning when most other places were closed. I also appreciate their menu options.

Nice beach, beautiful views. There are bathrooms on site. Parking is $10 for the day. There is a free smaller parking lot just before you get to the parking toll, but it's 20 minute parking only. It's a good spot if you just wanna enjoy the view and take some quick snapshots. We saw seagulls and their babies on the rocks, which was so cute! It is somewhat steep walking down to the beach, there aren't stairs. So that's something to be mindful of. There are also tide pools but you will need to do a little climbing to get to them. We saw lots of crabs and a starfish. Overall, I recommend this spot. I've been here twice and both times it wasn't crowded.

I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger, and it was good. The fries were also good. Pricing is a little steep for the combo, and it doesn't come with a drink. I guess that's pretty standard for this area. I was disappointed in the Texas Donut. The taste was good, but it was pretty dry inside. It also needed more glaze on the outside. My boyfriend got the Cajun Corn Dog, and he seemed to like it. There is indoor seating available. I would eat here again.
