I will never be able to pass SLO without stopping here ever again! I got the clam chowder along with the crab melt sandwich and OMG was it AMAZING!! Two of my absolute favorite things are crab and clam chowder and this was, by far, the best!!
To top it off, we picked out the lemon raspberry mini cake 🍰 and HOLY COW, we were blown away again. There was something in that cake that took me back to my childhood once again.
This was my first time at the SLO location. It was amazing! We usually go to Pismo for our Splash Cafe fix, but since we were staying in SLO for the weekend, then why not check it out! Bigger, roomier facilities, & larger menu than Pismo, but just as yummy! The clam chowder is always a #1 choice & it did not disappoint! This location has a bakery, too! The lemon bars are heaven! Definitely coming back ASAP!
Just driving through on vacation, could not be more happy we stopped at Splach Cafe! This place is absolutely amazing. Fresh pastries galore, scrumptious food! I had the croissant breakfast sandwich and it was by far the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had.
We had 2 hours to spear until our sons next game. We were playing in a baseball tournament in Paso Robles this past weekend. I was so happy when we got there and there was no line!! We hand our delicious clam chowder bread bowls and 2 cups to go. Well worth the drive!! �
The clam chowder and fish and shrimp were on point as usual.
Was very good, and the Girls working there were very helpful, and friendly. I would definitely recommend it too my friends.
Awesome place! First time, great food! Can't wait to come back and try other awesome stuff on the menu...
Always my first choice to eat when in town!! The fish was cooked to perfection and the soup, as always is the best!! The staff was also amazing and accommodating! Thanks. See you gain soon I hope!
My daughter and I shared a bread bowl and it was amazing. The people and staff were so nice too. We will definitely go back.
Carrie was a great help in our order. Food was fabulous. I will be driving back there again for the clam chowder with crab and shrimp in the bread bowl. Pastries were great too.
I found myself with 2 hours to kill in SLO and I'd been carrying around a card for a complimentary bread bowl of clam chowder for two years so I stopped in to see if they would still honor it. They hadn't seen one (it was that old) but were more than gracious to accept it. The clam chowder and the bread bowl were so good that I left nothing on the plate. They also had bottles of Carrot Hot Sauce on the tables that was new to me and that was outstanding as well. Their staff was awesome and wonderful. I usually hesitate to go to their Pismo Beach location as the line goes around the block. The SLO location at the busy hour of noon on a Sunday was busy but there was no long line and I was able to find a table. Highly recommended!!!
Best clam chowder anywhere on the west coast!! The service is fast and the food is excellent.
Both disappointed and pleasantly surprised with this place. The burgers, obster roll, fries and onion rings are absolutely amazing. Fries and onion rings were perfectly crispy, the lobster roll and burgers are packed with flavor. But the fish was horrible. It was overcooked, chewing, some pieces tasted like chicken while others were overly fishy, and the skin was burnt. The outdoor seating also has very small tables. Although the good definitely outweighs the bad I feel if your restaurant has a fish theme the fish should be good. 4.5/5.
We love coming here for the clam chowder! However, this time, we ordered the bread bowl and there were hardly any clams or potatoes, it seemed to be all cream. I tried the spicy fried fish taco and it was good! Although it only had 4 chunks of fried fish, which didn't seem like enough and it came with 2 tortillas which was too much. Overall, this place is always great!
My opinion should be heavily discounted as I recently moved to California, and this is only my second time eating clam chowder here.
So I don't know how this is supposed to taste. But whatever this is, is really good! I enjoyed it.
Quick and friendly service.
(I won't take points off for this since this is not why you're coming here, but the coffee is mediocre.)
Service was exceptional!!!! Exceptional!
Such a pleasure to share a meal in friendly atmosphere.
We had their clam chowder- YUMMY!! Must try for sure.
We came here to try their famous clam chowder and we were not disappointed.
It was creamy, loaded with seafood and very tasty. We also tried fish tacos and salad and it was okay. Definitely should stick to their chowder. Staff here was friendly and efficient even when it was busy. The only thing is the limited seating area. When it’s busy it can be hard to find a seat.
Excellent bakery, great food and fun vibes. The fish and chips are excellent and fresh, has a good flavor and spice. Clam chowders is very delicious like eating in Boston. Won’t be disappointed.
The place for clam chowder! The bread bowl is really amazing. The seafood combo with shrimps and calamari was tasty. It had more curly fries than the seafood, but everything had great taste. Portion sizes are smaller than usual, the bowl seemed to be of the size of a cup elsewhere- that’s something to consider before ordering. In all, great experience, really tasty chowder and seafood.
We're very happy we went here. It's very casual and you order at the counter. We ordered a bowl of Clam Chowder which was very good and decided to try the Clam Chowder Curly Q Fries. It was surprising how delicious this was together, who would have thought it would be so yummy! I ordered Grilled Cod Tacos (they also will do fried), after all it was Tuesday 😋 We chose to have dessert since they looked so good and ordered their Bread Pudding. It did not disappoint and was very tasty 😋 For such a casual place, the food was delectable and extremely tasty👍👍👍👍
Truly exceptional. The best clam chowder i have ever had. The place can be busy at times but well worth the wait
We were in SLO and talking about the best clam chowder we’ve ever had at Splash Cafe in Pismo Beach. We did a search for directions and were surprised to find a Splash Cafe about 5 minutes from our location!
We arrived about 6pm on a busy Saturday night. Luckily, the SLO cafe has more seating than the one in Pismo Beach. Staff was also very efficient and friendly.
We had two chowders in a bread bowl with a side of curly fries. The chowder was even better than we remembered! The roasted garlic bread top was the best. We had to order an extra quart of chowder to refill our bread bowls.
