From Jose Roberto Robledo, Cherries and Batter aims to offer a cozy and inviting start to the day, with a menu centered around made-to-order pancakes, classic breakfast dishes, and a full-service coffee bar. From traditional buttermilk stacks to more adventurous variations topped with fresh berries, whipped cream, and maple syrup, the cafe promises a breakfast experience that blends comfort with creativity.
Opening in the former home to Au Revoir French Bistro within Robinson Plaza shopping center, the new concept will focus on pancakes and premium coffee offerings, ranging from robust espressos to smooth cold brews. The cafe is aiming to carve out a distinct niche in a neighborhood known for its vibrant dining culture.
Roberto, whose taco empire has become synonymous with fast, flavorful Mexican fare, is looking to bring that same sense of quality and community to the breakfast table. With on-site parking and a prime corner location, Cherries and Batter Cafe is well-positioned to make a strong first impression when it opens, tentatively set for this summer.
Cherries & Batter Cafe is expected to open this July at 420 Robinson Avenue, Suite A, in San Diego's Hillcrest. For more information, visit cherriesandbatter.com.
