Vintage and Healthy: Wild Strawberry Cafe
07.20.15
One of our favorite local spots in Newport Beach, the charming Wild Strawberry Café is off the beaten path---on Newport Center Drive—and once you go, you’ll adore the European cafe ambiance with fresh flowers, music and healthy and delicious dishes served on vintage plates.
It’s the perfect place to take a break from your busy day to splurge on a pastry: almond croissant, delicious scones, brownies, cookies, apple strudel and more with an espresso, Nutella latte, or chai tea latte.
Or, you can enjoy an open faced tuna sandwiches, roasted turkey with cheese and pesto, the award-winning pastrami sandwich, kale strawberry salad with homemade dressing, dairy free vegetarian soups made daily, a fresh caramelized banana crepe, or Kobe Bryant's favorite, raw kale smoothie.
Owner and fitness enthusiast Natasha Kazic just added fresh omelets for breakfast, there are also delicious breakfast burritos, egg white frittatas, and hot barley cereal with chia and flaxseed, sugar, cinnamon with fresh fruit--an easier to digest alternative to oatmeal.
Open 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday; 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.
240 Newport Center Drive in Newport Beach. 949.706.0462.
