Stratford at the Harbor

this place is so good and the service is amazing. We came around 1 PM, and you just walk right in and choose where you want to sit. The environment is absolutely beautiful and the decor is so cute and boho. It is very dog friendly, which I love even have a little water bowls outside. Dogs are only allowed to sit on the patio which is perfectly fine because there are many seats to choose from.
I got the Chilla Quiles, which is really good. It was a good size portion and I got full from eating it. I had it with a watermelon, mint mimosa, which was strong, but good! They are a little pricey, considering the size of the glass, but no complaints because it got the job done hahaha.
my boyfriend got the burger which he said was good . Nothing too special just a regular burger I personally like this fries they were crunchy and fresh. He had a vanilla bean coffee which was probably the highlight of the experience. I could go on and on about the coffee.

Great experience. Will return :D

the food was fantastic!!! the coffee mug was the size of my head! I loved it
I also loved the fact that you can take the rest of your coffee to go if you can't finish it.

Service was amazing.

the place was very oceanside home feeling. The restroom had really cute
decor made from a local artist.

This place was delicious.

The service as we ordered was amazing.

It's a nice cozy place.

If we're back in the area, we will definitely go back.

Great place for brunch. Right by the harbor. This is a sit yourself and counter service type of venue. They have both indoor and patio seating. Open air and just California vibe.

We tried two of their benedicts: lobster Benedict and egg Benedict. Lobster Benedict has minced lobster meat on top of the eggs. Classic breakfast and egg Benedict never fail.

Long line but moved fairly quickly.

You order at the counter and then have a seat and they will bring the food to you.

The salted Carmel latte was delicious. Perfectly sweet as I asked for it less sweet and they did it perfectly. Cappucino was also just as delicious.

The veggie pesto sandwich was light, flavorful, and delicious. Loved th pesto and th chips it comes with perfectly crunchy and the aioli on th side was perfect for dipping.

The corned beef hash was delicious also. Would have liked it more crunchy but that's just me but loved it just the same.

The coffee cake was ridiculous!! No wonder they are famous for us! I could eat that every day!!

Loved this place. Near the water and good for people watching. Ambience great.

Dog friendly also.

Cute little restaurant located right by the harbor. It's counter service, so you order and pay at the counter, but they will bring your food to your table. It took a while for the girl to acknowledge us even though we were standing in front of the counter. She was working on the coffee machine, but she didn't turn around to tell us she'll be right with us or anything like that.

We ordered the berry crunch French toast and Stratford scramble, which were both really delicious. Portion was decent and we had a little French toast left over between 2 people.

Parking was easy and free for up to two hours.

Was vacationing in Vista for the weekend and looking for a savory breakfast spot. I read the good reviews on Yelp so we decided to give it a try. It was Sunday St. Patrick's Day at about 11am ish so we anticipated a wait. Wasn't too bad. You order and pay at the counter and then go find a table. We sat outside where there is a delightful view of the harbor(and great for people watching). I ordered the Vegetarian Scramble with Sourdough Toast. It was okay. I think the toast was made way ahead of time so unfortunately it wasn't warm. Wasn't a huge deal but warm toast is nice ;) My husband said he enjoyed his Beef and Reef.

I went here for my first time the other day, and I'm so sad I have been missing out on this place for so long! I loved it! Their food was amazing, I got the crepes, but I stole some bites from my friends because the food just looked to amazing. They have so many fun items on their menu, and their coffee is divine. I haven't had a latte so tasty in some time.

Cute little restaurant, right next to the harbor. You can see seals swim up. I can't think of a better place to have a restaurant.

All the severs were so sweet, and and very prompt with service. Food was done fairly quickly. I did go on a weekday, and I can picture a line out of the door on the weekends!

Amazing food. Literally so yummy! i wash here a couple weeks ago and it was a little busy since we went on a saturday morning but it was a really great experience and our food was delish. the berry french toast was perfect and the lobster benedict had lots of lobster on it which was awesome! would definitely recommend if you are in the area!

One star for the location & the staff.

Point deductions:
* Food in my hair
* Tri-tip was really dry, could almost pass for beef jerky
* Ice latte was made with regular milk and not an almond substitute, my stomach was in pain for the rest of the day

Needless to say the meal was not enjoyable or even edible at that.
