    Emma, you are an awesome server, we had a great breakfast and you never kept us waiting. This was such a cute little diner over looking the beach. I loved the little fire place inside. The prices were perfect for the location and proportion of food. The service was wonderful, everyone in here is friendly and willing to go the extra step for you.

    Good food at reasonable prices ($10-15 per plate plus drink). Can only comment on breakfast as I go there for morning beach walks. Service can be hot or miss, usually pretty good but sometimes servers can be overwhelmed and can't keep up. Server never came back to refill coffee and I wanted water and had to wave her down after she passed by a few times without checking on our table. Food was prepared quickly and fresh, no complaints with the food.

    Amazing brunch place right by the ocean! All the staff was super friendly. A great vibe! Windows were open and breeze was so nice! Food came out very quickly and was delicious. Cash only (ATM inside) was the only downside but other than a great experience! Definitely recommend it!

    [not so] hidden gem! Perfect spot by the beach, not looking for upscale vibes, but cozy, with perfectly cooked food. We tried, omelette, sandwich, and a special.

    We used to love Chucks. However, prices as of August 2023 are almost double what they used to be (instead of $30 for a breakfast for two, it’s more like $50– for breakfast!!) and they still expect you to pay with cash. We don’t carry that much cash and so we’ll make other breakfast choices now.

    Excellent, sensibly-priced food. Friendly and helpful staff like Katie too. And in the winter months a log fire too.

    Friend of mine recommended this spot for some good breakfast by the beach that's dog friendly. Lucky to find a spot across the street. Staff was very friendly,food was delicious and dogs didn't mind hanging out. No to go boxes needed,food was that good! Service was awesome as well cannot forget the server's!! Return, definitely.

    I don’t know why I’m always so surprised to find happy friendly people, it is so refreshing. The food is just what you would expect at a diner on the beach, hot coffee eggs cooked to order and fresh.

    This was our first visit to Chuck's. We lived our experience. The service was pleasant and attentive, our food was tasty, and it was great sitting outside. We will definitely be back soon!

  • 5/5 Julie H. 9 months ago on Google
    Great view, location, food, staff and most importantly dog friendly. Drove everywhere trying to find sonewhere with a patio that was dog friendly. Glad I stopped by Chucks. We'll be back!

    My dad has been eating at this place since the mid 60's. Turned into a tradition for me. Eggs with chili on top is so unique. If u go make sure to go for the weasel!!

  • 5/5 Steve W. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent as usual. Great veggie dish, fresh and crunchy. Pancakes are great as well. All the staff friendly and welcoming. Nice, comfortable atmosphere on the beach.

    Food was delicious and the service was great. I got the BLTA with the breakfast potatoes.

  • 5/5 ivan j. 1 year ago on Google
    My girl and I had been wanting to try this little spot. Glad we did! The food was good. But most of all the service was really great! My only concern were the flies that were inside the location, but other than that this place is worth visiting and supporting. There is plenty of parking near the beach. Short walk to the diner. I believe you can even had outside tables to eat.

  • 4/5 Pat S. 1 year ago on Google
    Again, great service and food! I got the typical but others in my party enjoyed their breakfasts.

  • 5/5 Claudio Cañete (. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent breakfast. Scrambled eggs with bacon and good coffee. The location is amazing, with outstanding views. Waitresses and service up to level. Only negative point is they are cash only, but there is an ATM just inside the restaurant. They open early in the morning, giving possibility to enjoy the sunrise. A place to repeat and enjoy.

  • 3/5 John B. 1 year ago on Google
    Recently moved to the area and trying to check out all the spots within walking distance. Service was great and food was decent! Solid 3 stars. Definitely a locals spot. Cash only!

  • 5/5 Chelsey S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic breakfast place! Wouldn't really call it a coffee shop though if they literally only serve regular drip coffee. It's more of a breakfast joint that serves regular ol coffee. But the food was delicious!!!!! Seriously!!

  • 4/5 The Trans Bright I. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is a cute little community staple. It's small and quaint with friendly staff, community regulars, good food, and somewhat reasonable prices. The restaurant has lots of widows with an almost 360 view of the beautiful surroundings. Fram all angles you can see the beach and the park and watch happy passerbys walking their dogs and enjoying our beautiful long beach.

  • 5/5 Lina W. 2 years ago on Google
    Hey hey I did my best to get the view from Chucks. The view of the ocean is just out of this would. Well when your used to looking at buildings and more buildings. I got the oatmeal special my buddy got the Santa Fe something. I ended up eating his food and minds ha ha. There bacon is perfect in the eggs. You know some places the bacon is super dry when going into dishes. Julie helped us out great customer service she was patient and answered my silly questions that I had about the menu. Thanks guys. Hispanic style diner yea get a double thumbs up. Those beans with cheese mmhmm get ate up!!

    Food is good, coffee is great. Service was less than desirable. Waitress did minimum effort. She dropped the check while we were eating, but didn't return to check to see if we needed more coffee or anything else until she saw money on the table. By the way, this place is cash only.

    Great food and staff. Pricing is very reasonable for location and food quality. Love visiting with staff and locals.
