Built on the corner of one of the oldest blocks in Pacific Beach, Café 976 provides its customers with a healthy and trendy means to breakfast, lunch, or just a morning coffee.
For the morning caffeine junkie, 976 covers all the areas from your basic tea and coffee to espresso specialties like the funky monkey, a creative blend of espresso, chocolate, banana and milk.
The breakfast menu has something for everyone from the traditional waffles and French toast to the different assortment of breakfast sandwiches, bagels and burritos.
If you’re in the mood for a healthier but equally filling meal, 976 also provides delicious Acai bowls. These bowls are an assortment of the Brazilian berry acai, granola, guarana, bananas, blueberries and strawberries all mixed together.
For lunch, Café 976 has a variety of healthy pizzas, salads, soups and sandwiches available until 3 p.m.
Originally built in the 1920s, the former house was reconstructed into the coffee house it is today in 1993.
The inside dining area atmosphere is very vibrant with wood floors and warm colored walls decorated with loads of local, eccentric modern art. Outside, the wrap around porch is a prime spot for couples or the occasional solo dining with its reclusive sun lit seating.
With so many schools in the area, Café 976 has become an Internet café and popular place to study for the local students. The atmosphere of the inside seating and dining area is rather loud and upbeat for studying and doing work. The open courtyard with its sun lit patio and an excess of plants and trees arouses a very calm and relaxing feeling and becomes the perfect spot to get focused.
Located at 976 Felspar St. in Pacific Beach, Café 976 opens at 7 a.m. everyday and serves breakfast until 2 p.m. and lunch until 3 p.m. After 3 p.m., only a few items are available on the menu for dining while drinks are available until close.
With a widely diverse menu and casual atmosphere, this modern coffee house bistro provides an amazing spot to eat, study or just relax with a new book for a relatively inexpensive cost.
