Parakeet Café

Cooking without seed oils or refined sugar is the rule at this San Diego café group, which started in La Jolla in 2017 and has a branch in the Brentwood Town Center on San Vicente. Breakfast and lunch lean on eggs and vegetables: a power bowl of roasted cauliflower, oyster mushrooms and potatoes under two sunny-side eggs, eggs Benedict with poblano hollandaise, avocado toast, soups and a burger. Coffee comes with house-made syrups and almond milk, alongside matcha and golden lattes, juices and mimosas. There's no dinner service.
