"Delicious clam chowder spot located in Pismo Beach. The bread bowl was delicious and they don’t even waste the part they cut out. Instead, it’s spread with butter and toasted, making it super delicious! Their workers were very efficient and friendly. Parking was busy during the holidays but available at a nearby lot."

"The clam chowder was superb and lived up to its claim of being "famous." The chowder was thick and served in a perfect sourdough bread bowl. There's other seafood items on the menu besides their clam chowder. The salmon was grilled just right, served on top of a salad which was satisfyingly big and included good ingredients. Would definitely eat there again."

"First time here, super yummy loaded chowder and discounted on Thursday! Love that they toast the center that gets cored out of the bread bowl. Friendly and quick service! Took a second to find seating but most people eat and leave quickly. Will definitely come back!"

"Splash Café absolutely lives up to the hype. I ordered the Fish Combo with calamari and cod, along with their famous clam chowder in a bread bowl, and everything was exceptional. The calamari was perfectly fried, tender, and seasoned just right. The cod was flaky inside with a crisp, golden coating that wasn’t greasy at all. The fries were fresh and everything came out hot. The clam chowder deserves its reputation. Rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, and the bread bowl was toasted perfectly with that buttery, crispy top. Easily one of the best chowders I’ve had on the Central Coast. Service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want from a beach town staple. If you’re anywhere near Pismo Beach, Splash Café is a must. I’ll definitely be coming back!"

"Splash Cafe absolutely does offer some of the best Clam Chowder in the west coast! The Clam Chowder in a bread bowl is 12ounces but I upgraded mine to 16ounce in a cup with curly fries on the side. Very delicious meal, no long lines during the winter season. Staff is very friendly, restaurant is kept clean. I will be a returning customer."
