Mmm those French toast cinnamon rolls were BOMB. I think these are the best cinnamon rolls in OC hands down. Obviously they aren't like your classic Cinnabon experience, but the mashup between French toast and cinnamon buns is amazing. Would recommend - the portion sizes are big too!

I would say that this is my favorite diner in Newport Beach. I say diner because it is like a traditional American diner, not so much a retro diner. It's located on beautiful 101 in North Newport Beach. Very close to the HB border. Parking is really easy, they have a free lot attached on both sides of the restaurant. Inside is also very large with two different dining areas, as well as many different type of seating options from booth, to table, to counter. The menu is also awesome, it has a lot of unique items on it and it's the sort of place where you can get something new each time. Our server was very polite but there was a bit of a delay getting our food items out, but it was very busy when we stopped in for Saturday morning brunch. The food quality and taste here really beats out the competition. Everything that we ordered was honestly fantastic. I ordered the Seafood Benny with Wild Caught Crab Meat and switched to the thick cut sourdough toast as the bottom, which I would recommend. The crab was fresh, the hollandaise had great flavor, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I honestly loved every bit of this dish and would highly recommend ordering it. I am eager to stop in again next time I am down in the OC area.

After passing by on pch as a local I haven't been here. Inside has the ambiance with beach view. Finally stopped in for my boyfriend's birthday today and enjoyed a late breakfast that was delicious here! Highly recommend trying the French toast combo and hash browns as well as the fried steak and eggs! The service was mazing the staff was super nice.

I've been following this restaurant on Instagram maybe a year and I've been wanting to go but it's an hours drive from where we live. For my birthday my husband paid for a beautiful hotel in Newport Beach and the next morning. I finally asked to come here. the inside is nice, they were very crowded. The service was great and we both liked what we ordered. It was so nice. I actually asked my husband if we could come back for Easter. Problem is waking up in the morning and doing an hour drive before breakfast but if you're in the area, I highly recommend it.

Cappy's Cafe is one of my go-to brunch place after a hike in Newport Beach CA. Always enjoy their food and now, they have an outdoor patio so we can come and enjoy brunch with our furbaby dog. The weather was nice when we went so the outdoor patio was perfect to dine in. Service is great but food takes a while to come out. But don't worry, the wait would be worth it because their food is all very good. I am a Benny girl so I always order one of their eggs Benedict dishes. It's delicious! Parking could be a challenge if you are not patient to wait for a spot to open up but the turnaround of their customers is pretty quick so just be patient if you didn't see a parking space open.

We stopped in again at one of our favorite breakfast shops in Newport. The food and service is always outstanding and the food is high quality. We were honored by Cappy's today in participating in 20% of our bill was going to be sent to the LA fire relief fund. Thank you !

We celebrated our life long friend's birthday today and the Cappy's team took great care of all 14 of us. They moved us inside due to the weather and kept us all at the same table and nice and warm. I had the blackened fish tacos and they were fabulous. The homemade chipotle sauce has a great kick and comes on the side. The tortilla chips are made fresh in house and it shows, so yummy!! My friend next to me had the tuna melt and said it was very good. You really can't go wrong with any items on the menu. I recommend holding your next Celebration at Cappy's.

I live one hour away from this restaurant and, unfortunately, don't go often enough. However, it is worth the drive and today I had a good breakfast, excellent service, and we were outside because we had two dogs with us. Luckily, it was a beautiful day and it was very pleasant. If you live in that area, run (don't walk) to this restaurant. Opens only till 2 pm.

Was in the area for a doctors appointment & came across this beautifully painted cafe! We had breakfast & it was so delicious! We ate outside in the patio area due to no place to eat inside. They were extremely busy (means it's a good place) But it was so nice, with the great beach air. The waitress's were on point & so friendly. Coffee was hot & had the special flavor coffee creamers we both loved. Food came out quick & was hot & large & delicious. We definitely will be back when in the area again. The building was painted SO adorable with dogs & beach vibes!

Cappy's was our most memorable breakfast on our Newport beach vacation! Everything was tasty! We had a skillet, omelet, and two egg breakfast. It has a classic warm vibe with art like dogs and sea landscapes painted on the walls. We sat outside (nice glass walls surrounded the outside patio so no crazy wind while we ate breakfast). Service was very good - they kept refilling my coffee. Lots of people packed in the restaurant - a sure sign it is a winner! It wasn't the least expensive - our freshly squeezed orange juice was six dollars - but we will go again!
