LOCAL REVIEW

"This is a cute little breakfast and lunch spot nestled in Carmel Valley, California. The food is wonderful and very reasonably priced. It has a quaint western decor and super friendly staff.

If you are in the area it is definitely worth the trip to stop on by. I have eaten at several of the restaurants in the area, and the Wagon Wheel is by far one of my favorites.

My husband and I went to the Wagon Wheel Coffee Shop for a nice breakfast on our anniversary. We were looking for a pleasant atmosphere in which to spend a little quality time together. We were not disappointed in the food or the atmosphere.

What we ordered: I had the Wheel which is a monster of a breakfast including yummy Katy Cakes, which are dollar size pancakes; bacon, eggs done your way; and sausage. It is certain to fill up even the hardiest appetite. They also brought me warm maple syrup for my Katy Cakes, yum. My husband ordered the Calamari Steak and eggs breakfast that comes with potatoes and toast (or other various choices of breads). He said it was excellent. The calamari steak is made special for the Wagon Wheel, and my husband says it has an excellent flavor. To drink I had a diet cola, which was a good diet Pepsi (refillable). My husband had a hot chocolate which looked delectable. They piled it high with marsh mellows and whipped cream." - from www.associatedcontent.com

Other Food Options: They serve a lunch menu which we haven't tried along with other breakfast favorites such as omelets.

The Cost: Our bill came to about $25 for meals, drinks, tax and tip. I think this is pretty reasonable. The wheel was $9.95 and the calamari steak was $8.95. Most of the breakfast selections range from $6.95 to $9.95. The only drawback to this restaurant is what they accept for payment. This is a cash only restaurant (they do have an ATM available), so be sure to bring enough cash to pay for your excellent meal.- from www.associatedcontent.com
