The Rose Latte was amazing. I had to make myself leave before I ordered all the delicious baked goods. Great vibe. The associates are knowledgeable and sweet.

It's incredible bakery store and coffee shop. I can't find right words to tell how it's good.

Great nostalgic spot on Balboa Island. Simple classic diner style dogs, burgers, and fries combined with a coffee shop/ bakery. It's definitely worth an afternoon lunch, or evening desert and coffee.

I love their sweets available. I ate there 3 times in 48 hours because there was a nice variety and also the sweets. I had the lemon blueberry tart, the mixed berry cheesecake, and also the buckeye pie. I also had the bratwurst, sweet potato fries and we had breakfast as well. Everything was delicious.

Delicious breakfast. It's small and busy, but very good! Tried the cinnamon coffee cake and it was fantastic. I would absolutely go back and try all their baked goods!

Small place but good food. They are known for their hotdogs which were tasty! They have a large selection of baked goods. I didn't love the chocolate chip cookies and will try a milkshake next time. My husband got the turkey melt panini and said it was yummy. The turkey was sliced thick and the avocado was fresh. Also came with grilled mushrooms. My little one had a breakfast plate and the eggs were good. Limited seating but we, surprisingly, got an outside table for the 4 of us without waiting.

What an amazing find!! The staff was so nice & the food is excellent! We ordered the Wild & wet chili dog (beef hotdog) and captain’s 911 kraut without the bun for gluten free allergy, delicious!!! Multiple gluten free options available. Muffins and pies and everything looks amazing! You sit and eat and people watch, cool little restaurant and we definitely can’t wait to visit again soon!

If you’re looking for a delightful place to grab a bite at Balboa Island, Crocker's should definitely be at the top of your list of places to eat in the Newport area! The owner is very helpful and made us laugh! Definitely great customer service and suggestions. What we tried: Clam Chowder (so good) Beer Battered Cod (light & crispy) Fried Zucchini (great substitute for fries) Pecan pie (warmed) Everything was delicious!
