What people say

5 out of 5 stars

“Aly and Christian are so friendly! Great place to cool off by the beach :)”

“New ownership changed the menu, killed the vibe and after 3 tries, I gave up. They took away the things that made this place great. For over 20 years we came to either Laguna or CDM about once a month. Sad to see an iconic establishment with top quality people reduced to this.”

“All dining is al fresco, and in August the weather was perfect! Breakfast was excellent, and the staff friendly and accommodating. I spend a week in Laguna every August for the Art Festivals, and I'll definitely return to the Zinc Cafe.”
