Two days ago we came up to Cambria with 4 of our newbie friends who had never been here... we're here for three days at Cambria Pines Lodge... got a dinner package, which is awesome... and we checked off walking on the boardwalk at Moonstone Beach... visit the elephant seals... then enjoy an awesome lunch at Cafe on Bridge St... we told them if there is a place you have to try it's here... so I try to type in the location for our friends to guide them here... a place in England comes up... that's odd... I try again and again... finally my other friend who has been coming up with us goes on Yelp to help me out.... IT'S PERMANANTLY CLOSED.... What????? No way... but it made sense that's why it didn't come up on WAZE.... My recent reviews always talks about 'Mon and Pop" establishments that have gone by the wayside since the pandemic... I thought this one would have survived... hands down this was the best Mom and Pop shop in Cambria when it came to high quality food with reasonable prices...made with a lot of love.... It felt like a family passed away suddenly... without warning... seemed so healthy... talked to the owner... everything seemed normal... it was a go to place... and have dessert at Linn's across the street at the Pie Shop... or the French Bakery down the road... shock... dismay... sadness... and depression set in.... I was next to the Pub... and sat at the bar... had my diet coke... the rest of us who came stood outside of the Pub... wondering what to do... they've never been in Cambria and was expecting me to decide where to eat... there was no plan "B"... there never was a plan B" only "A"... that was it... so they finally came into the Pub and had something... afterwards I walked over to Linn's and had my slice of pie... by myself... and walked over to where Cafe on Bridge St used to be... the door was open... and a sign that read "Brydge" was written on it... it all looked the same... could it be they are open again??? I walked in to a new owner with a new menu... I'm sure the food it excellent... Unfortunately, the new owner did not know what had happened to the previous owner... which was understandable... Hopefully, they will be as successful as Cafe on Bridge St... this morning after coming back home I read owner of Bridge St.'s message: "The restaurant is owned and operated by Guy Souther, whose passion for serving fresh, simple, yet refined food has brought him to the Central Coast where the ingredients seem to grow bigger and better in the valleys and in the sea air near the Pacific." Guy, from a former lover of your food, I wanted to honor you and wish you the best in where ever life leads you... and let you know that in my eyes you and you food was the best... so much so that I would drive 5 hours just to eat at your restaurant, and talk glowingly about how good your burgers and pastrami sandwich was... If you find it in yourself to come back let Yelp know where you are so I can visit you again... and if you are retired like myself... enjoy the fruits of you labor... and have a great life knowing you made a lot of people smile... Blessings my friend.

The burger alone was worth the drive; from Pacific Grove! Have decided to take a respite from the long drive from Pacific Grove in Cambria. The series of streets in Cambria is full of places to eat. Chose The Cafe on Bridge Street since we liked what we saw when we searched online (that is why I do make time to do reviews on Yelp, because they really do help others!). Parking: be aware where The Cafe is and as you near the street, grab any parking spot that you see that is available. Walk to The Cafe. Entrance: when you enter the arch, where the sign Cafe is seen, walk to the left of the house, entrance is on the side. Orders: Place your order on the counter where the gentleman takes your order, menus are posted at the entrance and above the cashier (chalkboard). I got the California burger with coke. It was cooked to perfection. I do not care for the dill pickles really, so took them out of the burger. The mustard was of good quality, the tomato tasted very fresh, the lettuce was not wilted, and the bun was go good. The burger was served with a wedge of dill pickle (again) with tortilla chips (baked not fried, thank you Chef!) Someone from the kitchen (apron and all) served my burger. The drinks, you grab yourself from the two refrigerators next to the cashier, as you pay for your order. Rest Room: is at the back, to the left when you walk in coming from the side of house as you enter the Cafe. It is a unisex restroom, as the marker states on the door. It was clean and had ample supplies. The person behind the counter was super nice and service was very good. The burger was cooked to perfection. The meat and the everything else that came with it was layered inside the bun in the sequence that I prefer ( I think this is the first time that I hada burger outside my house that I did not have to rearrange the layering of ingredients - perfect). Thank you. Highly recommend the place. The open windows (if seated inside) give the dining area a home-y feeling as the breeze blows inside the "house". Love it!
