Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Brockton Villa offers "amazing views of the ocean" and a charming, casual atmosphere perfect for breakfast or brunch. Their "famous Coast Toast" is a must-try, and the service is often praised as "outstanding." While some mention the nearby sea lions' odor, the overall dining experience is delightful.

Everything was great as usual! Freddie was super kind and attentive! Only complaint would be that they no longer had the pumpkin coast toast I had asked on instagram how long it would be available and was told through mid nov so that was a bummer especially coming from Chicago but I still enjoyed my time at the Brockton!

Always a lovely experience at Brockton Villa. We made reservations for 9a on a Friday and had a seat overlooking the water - the sound of the waves and sea lions was quintessential La Jolla. Food was wonderful, and our waiter was very attentive. We had the bananas foster, eggs and potatoes, a flight of mimosas, and of course the coast toast. Starting your day at Brockton Villa is a must when visiting the area.

Awesome food and drinks. Service was great too. It has great views but depending on the wind there us a strong fish odor due to proximity of seals and birds at the cove. But sitting inside there was barely any odor. We had a blast
