What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I went to this place on a Wednesday around 11 a.m. so parking was easy to find and the wait was not too wild. I did notice the service was very quick. It took a while to get our bill and to pay. But, the food came pretty fast. I odredered the california burrito and it tasted pretty good. I did not feel a lot of carne asada, but who knows. My favorite thing was the cafe mocha !!! I thinkt he items were well priced given the fact the the portions are HUGE! You could definitely split a dish with someone. I will go back to this place because there is quality, it is something different."
"The nostalgic diner atmosphere is so cute. We had a wonderful time sitting outside and enjoying the breeze. The food is phenomenal. Talk about a sweet and salty cure for the breakfast hunger. The BW benny is a nice breakfast to start your day If you’re in the area stop in it’s so worth it."
"My partner chose this place for breakfast, one morning in La Jolla, as we attempted to pass a little time, hoping the all-encompassing gray clouds would burn off, at the beach. Harry's Coffee Shop is like walking into a Time Warp, of pure Americana. It has that perfect diner vibe. Vintage pictures line the walls here. My favorite, was of the owner, standing alongside Willie Mays. It was a huge booth to ceiling black & white photo, which reminded an old timer like me, of my days of listening to baseball on the radio. Now on to the food. I loved my breakfast here! The hash browns were amazingly crisp-both sides, and had that strived-for golden brown color. My chicken-fried steak was a decently-sized portion, with a nice floured & fried coating, plus it was smothered in a distinctly different & delicious white gravy, with hints of rosemary. My scrambled eggs arrived to my table hot, & had a creamy texture, with buttery flavor. Our server was attentive, & friendly, bringing me a stainless steel carafe of coffee, after I plowed through my first cup. Near the end of our visit here, service lagged, & our server was slow to get our check, & to-go boxes. For this reason, I gave 4 stars for service. Everything else about our time here, was perfect. This place has been here, since 1960, & after eating here, I can certainly see why. The prices are decent, & the menu choices, abundant. My partner loved her Veggie Omelette, & she chose a Pancake, for her choice of bread, which was delicious, as well. There are 2 small lockable all gender bathrooms at Harry's. Both are in the same general area. 1 is located down a long narrow hallway, by the back door. The other is outside the restaurant's back door, then just to your right. The restrooms were tidy & clean. There is a large parking lot behind Harry's Coffee Shop, & that's good, because street parking in front is limited, & tough to come by. I loved this quaint coffee shop, which serves old timey vibes, & excellent food."
"Met a friend for breakfast, food was affordable, delicious and the service was great. Location is awesome, La Jolla Cove is walkable and a great stroll after an awesome meal."
"Visited Henry’s Coffee Shop last August and had a lovely breakfast experience. The hash browns were absolutely delicious, and the chocolate pancakes were generous in portion, served with honey and butter. The coffee was good, and the hot chocolate was comforting as well. A cozy, satisfying spot for a relaxed breakfast in La Jolla."
