Food Scene
Bagelry
1636 Seabright AveMy favorite bagels in town!
Cute ambiance - on weekends they often have a little folk trio that plays on the patio. Stroll over for a yummy pastry and espresso. The French toast is the BEST I've ever had!

Sweet little Italian restaurant with excellent food and ambiance. You'll need a reservation for dinner. They have recently moved a block away, so be sure to check new address.

Really good and really cheap hole in the wall Mexican food. This place has a line out the door at lunch (don't worry, they're fast). My favorite tacos in town.

Beautiful little park with a fun playground (great slides!), and an off-leash dog area. Perfect view of the Boardwalk. Just the walk down Ocean View Ave is enjoyable - prettiest street in Santa Cruz.

Classic amusement park with rides for all ages. Don't miss the Giant Dipper! Parking tip: take Pine toward beach, right on Buena Vista, and park toward the end. Walk across E. Cliff to trestle bridge.

Unofficial off-leash dog beach. The signs say they have to be leashed, but none of the locals do. We take our pup there all the time without any problem. It's beautiful!
