Zinc Cafe

Where: Located in the Cedros Design District of Solana Beach, a block from the train station, this is a small easy to miss place... It has a very bohemian family run feel to it with vines and creepers adorning the walls and roof...

What: This is another one of those quaint brunch places. It has a fully vegetarian menu with a variety of omelettes, breakfast cereals and sandwiches. We got the House special Zinc burger, a vegetarian patty on Focacia bread and a baguette with Mozzarella tomato and basil. Both the sandwiches were very tasty, fresh.. The serving size though was more Europe than America... The house coffee was also very good.. We finished with a Banana Nut Espresso cake which was excellent..

Service: It was a first-order-pay-then-eat kind of place so not too much serving involved but the staff very very friendly and helpful...

$$: Quite an affordable place. Sandwiches and omelettes run $5- $10. Deserts are $5 a piece typically but well worth it..

Overall a good place for a lazy weekend brunch in a very fashionable part of town...
