High Street Deli
One-of-a-kind location and sandwiches. The old deli building takes you back to the simpler times and the sandwiches are unrivaled on the Central Coast. Try something with avocado, get a bag of BBQ potato crisps and enjoy an ice cold beverage at the deli counter.
Big Sky Café
Big Sky is a local favorite for any meal. The plethora of local produce mixed with flavors from around the world create some of the most unique and tasty dishes in the area.
Novo Restaurant
Hands-down, the best spot for a romantic night out. The majority of Novo’s seating is on the back deck, overlooking San Luis creek. Try the tapas with a bit of local wine to start and finish with a curry or stir fry mixed with fresh, local vegetables.
Café Roma
Café Roma is a quintessential San Luis Obispo dining experience. Its classic Italian dining room, casual old world bar and scenic shade-covered patio, feels like Italy. Their wine list has over 200 wines and changes monthly. Don't miss it on your next visit.
Sally Loo's
One of the best coffee-shop atmospheres around. Great people. Local, delicious food. Frequent music. Big windows and lots of natural light. Stop by for a unique breakfast or enjoy an afternoon iced tea.
Del Monte Cafe
Del Monte has some of the finest breakfast in town. Sit out on the patio and watch the trains come in to the San Luis Obispo station, which is right across the street. If you're looking for a laid-back, but great dinner, sit inside the small cafe and savor the fine flavors of SLO.
Louisa's Place
Some of the best breakfast around. Fantastic, home-style cooking. Don’t miss the pancakes or anything else on the menu.
Native Lounge
For those looking for something a bit more upscale, Native combines the luxury and cuisine of big-city dining with the good service you’d expect in a small, local restaurant. Try the pan-fried abalone and paradise profiteroles with your favorite beverage.
