Stratford at the Harbor
Y’all I have some exciting news…I’m back with new travel posts! The last couple of months I’ve had the opportunity for some fun adventures (if you want to follow along in real time head over to my Instagram account!) and I’m excited to share them with you! If you’re looking for more of my travel recommendations, check out the travel map I created with all of my reviews!
Last week I headed to Oceanside, CA for a girls brunch with my sister, mom, and aunts at Stratford at the Harbor. I’d recommend a visit to Stratford at the Harbor if you are visiting or live in the San Diego or Orange County area in California. Here are a few reasons why…
1. They serve fresh coffee cake that is out of this world AMAZING! Like there are hardly words to describe the yumminess of this coffee cake…moist, perfectly sweet, and just fabulous!
2. The location is phenomenal! Nestled in the harbor in Oceanside you have gorgeous water views while you eat breakfast or lunch. And since the weather in Southern California is perfect nearly all year-round this is a great brunch spot any time of year!
3. The details. If you’ve been reading this blog for a while then you know that I love the extra details and believe they take things from good to great. And Stratford at the Harbor nailed the little details! From the baskets organizing the coffee supplies in the server station to the mirror in the bathroom that completes the nautical themed décor in the bathroom.
If you have the chance to enjoy breakfast or lunch at Stratford at the Harbor, let me know!
Also, I’ve been working on updating my travel bucket list so I’m looking for your suggestions…what places and events do I need to make sure I visit in the US and internationally?

Coffee cake is a definite “weak spot” of mine.. I just love that crunchy cinnamon and sugar with that glaze… wish I could jump into my computer and have a bite. Looks like a charming setting as well. It will be fun to see more of the places you are visiting!

I would do about anything for a piece of that cake and fresh AMERICAN coffee.

Take me with you! I am loving that seaside scene. That definitely reminds me of Florida but it’s SO different!
