Catalina Coffee & Cookie Co. $
★ 4.5 · Cafe · 205 Crescent Ave, Avalon, CA 90704
The 6am lifeline of Metropole Marketplace — locals grab espresso and a warm cookie or the bacon breakfast burrito before the first boat unloads. Bakery case (with gluten-free options) sells down by afternoon.
Tucked in the Metropole courtyard, this is the health-forward counter — acai bowls, cold-pressed juice, proper paninis, and the island's best vegan/GF options. Quiet escape from the Crescent Ave crowds.
The grab-and-go coffee counter beside Hotel Atwater in the Shops at the Atwater. Illy espresso, breakfast bagels, muffins and burritos for an early ferry or a hike — in and out fast.
★ 4.0 · Cafe · Two Harbors, Catalina Island, CA 90704
The casual grab-and-go counter at Two Harbors for breakfast and lunch — avocado toast, burgers, fish and chips, wraps. Basically your only quick daytime bite on the west end, with patio seating by the water.
