The Penguin Café has been a landmark in Laguna Beach since 1943. This café serves breakfast and lunch…More with frosted malts, milkshakes and ice cream. The staff is very friendly and keeps the meals coming out of the kitchen as quickly as possible, helping surfers and beachgoers get a hearty meal without taking a large chunk of time.. Inside, you will still see the original Penguin décor and some classic photos of Laguna Beach's history.</p> <p>Metered parking is on the street (quarters only), or free in the small lot behind the building.</p>
