Our story
A quiet strip-mall favorite in San Clemente.
Rose Cafe & Donuts is a local favorite tucked into a Camino De Los Mares strip mall in San Clemente — a case glazed fresh every morning, hearty breakfast burritos, stacked deli sandwiches, and a small sun-warmed patio under yellow umbrellas, a few blocks up from the pier.
Read our storyWhat you’ll find here
Donut mornings, patio afternoons.
Donuts, Glazed at Dawn
Every case is hand-glazed and stocked before sunrise — Texas donuts, almond bear claws, buttermilk bars and more, made fresh each morning.
Open 5 to 2, Every Day
Doors open at 5 AM and close at 2 PM, seven days a week — early enough for the fishing crowd, easy enough for a lazy Sunday.
A Patio Built for Lingering
Yellow umbrellas, string lights, and a chill few blocks from the sand — the kind of corner regulars quietly claim as their own.
Made to Order at the Counter
Burritos, bagels and deli sandwiches are built fresh when you order, not stacked ahead of time — the same way they always have been.
What guests say
From our regulars.
“I have never had a bagel like this one — fluffy, fresh, and perfectly crispy.”
Chelsea F.
“Probably the best breakfast sandwiches in San Clemente.”
Debby D.
“Perfect balance of cream cheese, arugula, tomato and red onion. 10/10.”
Patricia N.
“Hearty and beautiful — piled high with lox, cream cheese, avocado and capers.”
