Coast Big Sur

Coast is a charming cafe, art gallery, and ice cream shop that makes for a great lunch stop while driving Highway 1. Sit on the cafe’s rooftop patio, choose from their small, rotating selection of pizzas, tarts, salads, and soups, and definitely save room for their soft serve. Try the year-round standard, the vanilla bay laurel, or opt for seasonal choices such as quince or pear —or don’t choose at all and get any two flavors as a swirl.
