Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Huntington Beach

"With a modern, refined beach aesthetic and youthful, energetic vibes, Driftwood Kitchen brings fun and ease to waterfront dining. Their slogan, "any closer and you would have to swim," rings 100% true at this California-seafood focused restaurant situated right on the beach. This Instagram worthy spot with crystal clear views will draw you in, but their supremely executed ocean-to-table dining experience will be why you keep coming back."

"At Driftwood Kitchen you can listen to the waves break on the sand while you dine on fresh, seasonal ingredients. With sweeping ocean views, the restaurant is located next to Pacific Edge Hotel and is just steps away from Main Beach. Portion sizes here are generous and the food is healthy with lots of organic options."

"Ocean views and ridiculous sunsets alone ought to be enough to bring folks in, but gourmet Driftwood steps up the food with seasonal menus centered around fresh, sustainable seafood, plus options for landlubbers...."

"They serve mainly American food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They are famous for their Mac N Cheetos, something that sounds exactly as good as it will taste. The ambiance is perfect, as they converted a bungalow into an outdoor restaurant."

"Broadway, is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the Cajun/Creole breakfast and brunch restaurant four stars out of 5,303 reviews."

"Seabirds Kitchen serves some of the best organic and plant-based food on East Fourth Street!. Having started as a food truck, this restaurant is now a brick-and-mortar eatery where you can indulge in mouthwatering dishes. Specialties include options such as Cauliflower Ceviche, creamy Tomato Soup, Grilled Mushroom Tacos, and vegetarian burgers that are sure to keep you feeling full all day long."

"Seabirds has a cult-like following and for good reason: The small shop off of Fourth Street, just a tad east of Alamitos, serves up some of the most quality vegan creations in the entire region, distinctly unique plates that are addictive and comforting. Delivery via Door Dash and curbside pick-up via ChowHound. For Brian Addison’s complete guide to vegan food in the city, click here."

"Whenever the weekend rolls around, Seabirds is the first place that pops into mind for brunch. During the weekend of the Tropicalia Fest (Nov. 3-4, 2018), I decided to get a quick bite before all of the music festival shenanigans. For those of you who have attended music festivals, you know how expensive festival food is and probably try to refrain from buying food inside the venue."

"If you live in Manhattan Beach or need a reason to go to Manhattan Beach, Uncle Bill’s Pancake House is motivation enough. The restaurant building was originally constructed as a home and went through a number of owners before Uncle Bill McElroy moved in and started serving pancakes in 1961. Uncle Bill offers 12 varieties of pancakes and the Cake & Eggs, two buttermilk pancakes with two eggs any style."

"Situated among other eateries and shops galore, Uncle Bills Pancake House combines a great breakfast with a wonderful location. This great breakfast spot is in the heart of downtown Manhattan Beach and is just a short walk down to the beautiful beach. The restaurant has a house-down-by-the beach look and atmosphere to it and offers both indoor and outside patio dining."

"With a slew of locations around the country, it’s safe to say that Sprinkles cupcakes are still a hot-ticket item. At Sprinkles’ Corona Del Mar cupcake and ice-cream outposts, you’ll find frozen treats and those perfectly frosted baked goods that made you—and everyone else—fall in love with this dessert empire in the first place."

"An outgrowth of the Laguna Beach Art Association (which was formed by local artists in 1918), the Laguna Art Museum specializes in California artwork. Unlike most museums in California, Laguna Art Museum showcases only California artists and their work. The permanent collection includes over 3,500 pieces from the 19th century through present day."

"Just north of Main Beach, Laguna Art Museum emphasizes the art of California. The permanent collection features California landscapes and vintage photographs, all by local artists. Contemporary art is featured in the changing exhibits."
