Cozy place, taste food, friendly staff! 5 star :)
The food was excellent, the service was on par as well. Be aware this is a cash only establishment
MoreThe best breakfast I have ever had, especially the Eggs Benedict! We plan to eat here every time we visit Carmel.
MoreQuaint, awesome: tasty Eggs Benedict (deep, rich and lemony); my simple guilty pleasure - a stack of the (thin and wonderfully light) buttermilk pancakes!
MoreAn amazing restuarant and some of the best pancakes I've ever had.
The food here is insane. It is so good. The pancakes, so thin and honestly the best ive ever had.. The paintings at this restaurant are beautiful yet hilarious with the subtlr additions to the paintings. This restaurant is seriously top notch. Highly recommend this restaurant. Very casual, moderate prices, superb food. Just go and try it for yourself.
MoreGreat bfast/lunch location in Carmel. Very cozy - like most restaurants in area, space at a premium. Good selection, definitely notch or two above diner food. Service was outstanding. Had unhappy toddler with us, server went above the call of duty to keep her happy and fed.
MoreCozy brunch place with the best Benedict
We came here at 1:45pm, but they were already closed. Also they don't accept credit cards. Bad business.
MoreThis restaurant is obviously one of the most pleasant restaurants in the neighborhood. Anytime I come there I am deeply happy. They always keep their very high standard service and the topmost level of cooking they give. You will be always satisfied with this place. Warmly recommended.
MoreAmazing ambient, food and attention! The staff was lovely to my parents who don't speak great English. The dishes are abundant and we actually weren't able to finish them! Definitely worth a visit. However, I'd recommend you arrive early since it gets quite busy at around 9am.
MoreA hidden gem, great for breakfast and lunch. Some of the best eggs benedict
Breakfast is always so delicious. Staff is warm and friendly, curtious and ready to answer any menu questions. I like to bring friends here who have never been. Enjoyable
MoreGreat food . Excellent service
Breakfast time. It’s very good. Ordered blintz. Very tasty. Ordered one more portion after eating one. $12 for order sound reasonable. This The Little Swiss Cafe look small but very comfortable. Atmosphere feeling homey. Nice location. Just one not good thing. They are not accepting credit card.
MoreTasty cheese blintzs and thin pancakes
Great food, good service, but very small so you might have to wait. But it is worth it. The biscuits and gravy, yummy. Cash only.
MorePoor/rude service, small sign tells you cash only! Noticed too late and had to go to ATM. It’s 2020, get up to date!
MoreGreat food, cute murals, and very friendly staff. Love this place; it's definitely the best breakfast in town.
MoreExcellent service and food, the Benedict eggs are delicious.
Best oatmeal I‘ve ever had. Great place to have breakfast.
The quality and service are back. Still as funky as ever.
Among the best eggs Benny you will ever have.
I love a good brunch spot a s Little Swiss Cafe does not disappoint. The waffle is amazing, it has a bit of malt or some flavoring I can't quite put my finger on. It is one of the best waffles I've had. Get the two egg and hash special then add the waffle for a dollar more. Trust me it is the only deal you'll find within the city limits of carmel-by-the-sea. Also, the corned beef hash is homemade and really delicious.
MoreThis place takes cash only! I was lucky to spot the tiny, unnoticeable sign! And if you need an ATM they don’t have one, you’d have to go a few blocks down to get cash back. Also, our server didn’t come by until about 15 minutes of sitting down.
MoreWe visited this place on the recommendation of Barb, the owner of the Quiet Wooded Guest College. A great recommendation. A fast friendly staff and the restaurant had a nice quaint vibe. We were told to try the pancakes and the waffles but customers leaving the restaurant. The waffle is a great, but what you must have is the chicken apple sausage. That was the food highlight of the day. A quick note, it is cash only. The is a Chase ATM a block east and then north.
MoreVery cozy. Happy with the food. Friendly service.
The Very BEST place Ed for Breakfast, been going for 34 years.Going back next week, and will have breakfast every morning. Keep up the Phenomenal Food. William
MoreIf you want a quick bite to eat at Carmel by the ocean,this is a good place. Friendly staff, cute place, and good food. If you go further in the restaurant, make sure to take a good look at the wall paintings, they'll give you a good laugh. It's like playing"I spy" but with a whole wall instead of just a book.
MoreEggs Benedict!!! Can you say more.
Not to bad service was a little slow but very nice
Best pancakes in Carmel. Thin, huge. Secret family recipe.
Food is very good, but they told me that they did not take credit card.
Quite possibly the best French Dip I've ever had. The best ingredients. Deliciously fresh salad. Your host is also the owner; ask him for the best recommendations.
MoreMy husband and I love this place. It’s quaint and has amazing pancakes and waffles. The wall murals are beautiful and have humorous details if you look close. Just make sure you have cash!
MoreLove this place! Best thin pancakes ever! The artwork is very entertaining while you eat your breakfast. Good food and friendly service. Cash only.
MoreBreakfast menu was pretty standard. The lox and ham were really salty.
Almost a must go while in Carmel! Love the eggs Benedict! Thanks again Little Swiss cafe! Blair
MoreBest breakfast I have had in awhile. The holindais sauce. Omg. The cheese blintzes omg
MoreI never knew I needed a cheese blintz until today!
Delicious and family place to enjoy a delicious breakfast.
Cottage cheese is good. Otherwise, a pretty standard breakfast place
Liked my visit very much. Nice cosy place to enjoy a meal. Food was great, staff friendly and price reasonable.
MoreOne of my preferred places to grab something to eat. convenient location, clean, and awesome customer service. I highly recommend them!
MoreNice apple pie, good food
Meh. Nice staff, for the most part. Had to ask for refills on my coffee. Food was okay. Not worth the cost. The paintings on the wall were gorgeous and funny and it is a cozy little spot.
MoreIt is a very charming place. We had some dessert there after lunch! Their cheese blintzes is amazingly creamy, they serve it warm with sour cream and fresh strawberries... Highly recommended.
MoreI asked for soft scrambled eggs and they delivered. possibly the best eggs I've ever had.
MoreGreat food and nice service. Pancakes are awesome!
Pricey, cash only, good portions, sweet little nook with cute art
