Wild Plum Cafe and Bistro on Munras Avenue in Monterey has been a city breakfast and lunch institution since it opened, building a menu around scratch-made cafe plates, house-baked pastries, and the from-scratch California cafe food that earns a Monterey restaurant its loyal following in a city with high culinary standards across every meal period. It appeared in Season 20, Episode 5 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “All Day Dining,” which aired October 3, 2014. Guy Fieri found a Monterey cafe kitchen doing breakfast and lunch from scratch with the quality and warmth that earns a neighborhood restaurant its destination reputation on the Central California coast.

What to Eat
The House-Baked Pastries from the morning case are the bakery side of Wild Plum that earns the early crowd before the cafe fills up. The Seasonal Breakfast Plates built around fresh Central California produce reflect the farm-to-table sourcing that defines the best Monterey Peninsula kitchens. The Lunch Sandwiches and Salads on house-baked bread extend the scratch-made philosophy through midday. The Daily Specials reflect what the kitchen is inspired to build that day.
