When you think of a ball park, donuts may not be the first thing that come to mind. However, if you find yourself walking on the seawall and want a little treat you may be just in luck. I found myself doing just that after a pedicure at the nearby Cocok’s nail salon (which I also highly recommend!). You can see Breeze Café from the seawall.
It has a few small tables outside that you can sit at on a cozy patio that is dog friendly, and also is beautifully decorated on the inside. They have pancakes, sweet and savory sandwiches, coffees, smoothies and tea. We tried the tea and the blueberry smoothie which was tangy and delicious. I cannot speak to the sandwiches, but the pictures made them look to be quite tasty.
What we did try were the donuts. I had heard my friends talking about them and finally was able to try them for myself. We tried an order of the “simple ball” in the lemon flavor, and also the peanut butter “fantastic ball” which were in fact quite fantastic. The donuts came out warm and fresh and the lemon had sugar on them with wedges of fresh lemon to squeeze onto the top. I preferred the lemon donuts personally but the peanut butter ones were delicious as well with a variety of halved nuts sprinkled on top. Two of us split two small orders and it was the perfect size for an afternoon snack! I definitely recommend stopping to check out this little gem of a café!
They have an English menu that also includes pictures for most of their menu items.
