Cafe Merlot at the Bernardo Winery

If you have time (at least an hour, but give yourself up to two hours), head to Cafe Merlot for breakfast or brunch with your loved one or your family.

The small cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating, great service, fantastic coffee, a large selection of teas and delicious food. However, the small kitchen means that it will take a while for your order to come to your table.

That said, order coffee or tea (they will keep refilling it for you) and sit back and relax with your loved ones.

We ordered brunch, but we noticed couples ordering a bottle of champagne and a fruit and cheese platter and sit back and nosh and chat and then maybe order a breakfast entree to split.

I ordered the Bacon Florentine Eggs Benedict, which was decadent and delicious - and humongous! The table also ordered the oatmeal (which was fantastic), the breakfast burrito, and a couple of omelets. All of which were delicious and left us full and satisfied.

Also, after brunch, if you walk down a few shops, you can do a wine tasting of the Bernardo Winery wines.
