The view here is absolutely amazing! The food and drinks are delicious, and the sounds of crashing waves really make the meal special. Servers are great, and they make the best recommendations! The only bad thing is that they do not have on-site restrooms. They are a short walk over a bridge. The atmosphere here is great, and the vibe is great! Sit outside if you can. It is totally worth it!

The Beachcomber is a delightful restaurant in the heart of Crystal Cove State Park. It is housed in a classic restored beach house right on the sand. All of the cottages are slowly being restored one by one, preserving this amazing piece of California history. The food is phenomenal, with an incredible variety. Everything is complemented by their exquisite cocktails and dessert. Not to be missed!

Beautiful on the beach restaurant. Good food, a tad pricey for what you get (quantity and quality). Get the bread, it's amazing. Pass on dessert, we had three different ones and they were meh. You can dress casual or a little dressy. Friendly staff.

Great Experience, the tram ride from the parking lot was nice, the walk to the restaurant was about a quarter mile slight downhill, we arrived about 8am for a weekend breakfast with no food reservations and had a 15 minute wait to sit on patio.

The Beachcomber at Crystal Cove is a hidden gem with a stunning oceanfront setting. The decor is charming and rustic, with views that will take your breath away. The lunch menu is outstanding, with a variety of delicious fish dishes to choose from. We started with the creamy and mouth-watering clam chowder, followed by the unforgettable lobster roll on a perfectly aromatic bun. The poached butter made the lobster incredibly soft and flavorful. We also tried the Ahi BLT sandwich, which was cooked to perfection and served on a delicious brioche bun with a great sauce. The service was excellent, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend visiting the Beachcomber at Crystal Cove for an unforgettable meal in one of the most picturesque locations.

Where we parked it was roughly a 8 min walk.. @ night it does get really dark however they do have some lights along the trail. The appetizers were all good, clam chowder and salmon were delicious. Had a few cocktails as well didn’t disappoint. There’s a bathroom towards the back of the restaurant and on the other side of the bridge. Watching the sunset was really cool it wasn’t cold @ all. Overall great experience.

The Beachcomber Cafe is a very special place, nestled inside a very special place. Just steps from a beautiful stretch of beach in the charming and nostalgic Historic District section of Crystal Cove State Park, you’ll find fantastic food (especially their breakfasts), excellent service, classic retro vibes and a truly magical and serene setting. Check this place out. Thank me later.
PS—There’s also a popular bar called The Bootlegger here
