Malibu Farm Café is the ultimate farmhouse dream, combining crisp-white décor, reclaimed wooden furniture, cute instagram-worthy drinks, delicious dishes and the most wonderful ocean view. The brisk ocean breeze, the salty scent and the lull of the crashing waves make this place the most perfect location for Sunday Brunch. It caters to all tastes, offering brunch till 12pm, and lunch afterwards. A fun drink menu includes the fan-favorite “frosé” (frozen rosé), mimosas, white sangrias and more. If you’re craving breakfast all day, you can head over to their location at the end of the pier that offers this service till closing time. Although this restaurant doesn’t offer reservations and the wait can be quite, it’s totally worth it. You can sit right on top of the ocean at the skinny deck, on top of the beach at the outdoor seating area (which has the most amazing bohemian vibes) or in the dreamy indoor section for when the sun is too intense, or for when the temperatures drop. What’s the catch? You’ll not only have the most amazing view and delicious food, but you’ll also be able to take the cutest photos in town.

It’s simple and straightforward: Sqirl is just out of this world. This tiny hidden gem looks like no big deal from the outside, but the inside is pure goodness. Not touristy at all, usually only locals know about it, which makes it even more appealing. Open only for breakfast and lunch, with the menu messily scribbled on the walls, it feels like you just discovered grandma’s flavorful secret café. Every single item on Sqirl’s menu, including coffee, juices and jams is actually homemade, mostly in front of your eyes if you dare to venture near the kitchen counter. That’s why there’s no mystery as to why each dish is heartwarming and mouthwatering. It’s completely unfair to name only a few items, since the whole menu is fantastic. But if you’re craving a few pointers, you shouldn’t miss the French Toast, the Big Tot, the Hash and the Sorrel Pesto Rice. The menu is definitely online, but keep your eyes open because there’s daily specials every time you visit and they are a one-time chance!
