Malibu Cafe

Tucked away on the picturesque grounds of Calamigos Ranch, Malibu Cafe offers an escape from the ordinary. This isn’t your typical Malibu brunch spot—you’re dining on a sprawling lawn that regularly hosts weddings and celebrations, surrounded by private bungalows and resort-style pools. The setting alone makes this place feel like a special occasion.

The menu leans into familiar California-American territory with prices that reflect the Malibu zip code (think nearly thirty dollars for a breakfast sandwich). But what really shines here is the bottomless brunch deal, which makes those price tags feel a lot more reasonable when you can keep the drinks flowing. The food is solid and satisfying, perfect for soaking up a leisurely afternoon.

This is the kind of place where the experience matters just as much as what’s on your plate. Come with friends who appreciate a long, lazy brunch. Stake out a spot on the grass, order another round, and let the afternoon unfold naturally. The romantic ranch backdrop adds an unexpected charm—there’s something amusing about brunching in a location where couples regularly exchange vows.

If you’re looking for a memorable outdoor dining experience in Malibu that goes beyond the usual beachside fare, Malibu Cafe delivers atmosphere in spades. Just come prepared to spend a little and stay a while.
