Chit Chat Cafe at the Pier — Restaurant in Pacifica

My family and I stayed in a rental house right near the Chit Chat Cafe and walked over every morning for our morning coffee. When we made a grocery run for snacks, we considered getting coffee to make in our rental. We unanimously agreed we'd much rather walk over to the Chit Chat Cafe every morning haha

Their brewed drip coffee is great for those who prefer regular coffee in the morning (a lot of the VRBO reviews for our house had mentioned how surprisingly good their coffee is lol). Their lattes are also delicious! Try their B&W latte!

Great food options as well. We enjoyed their bagels and pastries for breakfast and were so surprised by how good their sandwiches are for lunch. Their sandwiches are large! Get the pulled pork sandwich. You'll smell them cooking the pork outside as you walk up and that's all you need to know that it's going to be delicious!

Thanks for being so nice and being a wonderful part of our Spring...

5 Stars — Tyler Understands the Assignment by Gracie, the Goodest Gorl

First of all, let’s be clear: I didn’t choose to be this cute. It’s a burden I carry daily. Luckily, Tyler at Chit Chat Café gets it. The moment I strutted in, Tyler was ON IT — immediate eye contact, full attention, proper admiration. He even asked the most important question of our time: "Why is Gracie so cute?"

THEN — as if that wasn’t enough — he busted out a TREAT. No paperwork, no waiting in line. Just straight to the good stuff. AND he called me a good girl. (I am. Thank you for noticing.)

But the real MVP moment? Tyler respected the sacred Cheese Tax. When my human’s food arrived, Tyler didn’t even blink — just made sure I got my fair share. Royal treatment, baby.

If Tyler ever runs for President, he already has my vote. (And my paw print.)

P.S. Tell Tyler I’m available for future cheese...

It's a small mom and pop run cafe that has everything from coffee to fishing supplies. It sits at the entrance of the Pacifica Municipal Pier so you can't miss it. You can grab a coffee, bagel, and donut to enjoy the ocean breeze. There are tables and bar stools to sit on inside but no outdoor seating. The restrooms are actually on the outside of the building and open to the public. You can also buy fishing and crabbing supplies here such as frozen bait (squid, mackerel, sardines, ghost shrimp,  etc.) and even a full crabbing starter kit (crab pot with rope, bait cage, and measuring guide). There is street parking in the neighborhood and adjacent parking lots across the street but please read any posted signs restricting parking. There are some reserved parking spaces, disabled parking spots, and limited...
