🥞 LA 3-Day Eats｜Laguna Beach Brunch + Gelato Route

Stayed right in Laguna Beach this time — everything was within walking distance! 🌊 Sharing our perfect brunch & gelato stroll for your next sunny getaway. ☀️ 🍽️ 1. Las Brisas 📍 361 Cliff Dr, Laguna Beach The view here is everything — right by the ocean, gorgeous scenery, perfect sea breeze… total vacation vibes. 🏖️ But… let’s be real, the food is just okay 😅 It’s a “100/10 for photos, 60/10 for flavor” kind of place. Come for the views & ambience, not necessarily for the brunch. 🍳 2. Driftwood Kitchen 🥘🔥 📍 619 Sleepy Hollow Ln Now this is the real deal — delicious food AND ocean views! Cozy, relaxed, and seriously tasty. Must-tries: 🥘 Steamed Salt Springs Mussels Prosecco broth with nduja sausage, garlic, and roasted tomatoes — so flavorful! Dip the bread in it, you won’t regret it. 🦞 Maine Lobster Hash Sweet lobster meat with red pepper hollandaise, topped with perfectly runny poached eggs 🍳👏 Crispy potatoes on the side — absolutely dreamy! I’d come back here every time I visit Laguna! 🍨 3. Paradiso Gelato — The perfect ending 🍨💖 📍 Laguna Beach (walkable from both brunch spots) Sunshine + sea breeze + gelato = the ultimate holiday happiness formula. Their pistachio + strawberry combo is 100/10 🍓💚 Rich but not heavy pistachio, sweet-tart strawberry — tastes like summer in a cup. Sitting on the steps by the water, gelato in hand… pure bliss. 💫 Laguna tip: Walk, eat, repeat — slow living at its best. 💙 #LagunaBeach #BrunchGoals #CaliforniaCoast #GelatoLove #BeachEats #FoodAndView #TravelEats #SoCalBrunch #OceanfrontDining #WeekendVibes #FoodieDiaries #SunnyLA #EatByTheSea
