Do you like your soft scrambled eggs hard on the inside and runny on the outside? How about a poached egg where the yolk is hard and the white is runny? If you answered yes to either or both, then Hula Hut is the place for you. Still, as someone who loves to cook, I am puzzled how these culinary contradictions were achieved. It was almost worth the price of an indigestible meal.
On a long journey north to Paso Robles, a stretch of the legs, some fresh ocean air and a delicious coffee and ice cream refreshment is just the ticket. Hula Hut has a great selection of ice cream flavors and is perfectly located right on Front Street to take your treats and go sit and enjoy. Parking: We parked in the Avila Public Parking lot on First Street. Street parking is available but an open spot is always hard to find and this lot always has spaces. Its not free, or cheap, but worth it to skip the hassle of driving around for ages trying to find an open space elsewhere.
So we thoroughly enjoyed this shop's sweet treats and beach themed signs and gift items!! The manager is a laid-back man who we found honest to interact with; it was refreshing and humorous. Sitting with ice cream in their outdoor table and chairs was a great ending to the day for our kid and us. Hubby and 9-y.o. son got a kick out of the extreme chocolate flavor Motor Oil! As the saying goes, appreciate the little things. Our family drove 2 1/2 hours to bring my mother-in-law to the beach since she flew from an inland state. She uses a walker and enjoys the beach air and vibe so much regardless of her limited mobility. I'm currently going through an extremely tough time. Thus, a peaceful day at the beach was much needed for us all--and we found that at Avila Beach, including and especially spending time at this shop! More people need to take a daily humble pill, become emotionally intelligent, and/or perhaps learn to be the sunshine in someone elses day rather than expect to always be on the recieving end, as you never do know what battles other people are fighting. Everyone's a super critic aren't they--so quick to condemn a place over a single coffee, meal, or just a glance. Can't humans just live amongst humans anymore!? Maybe the glance had nothing to do with you. Maybe the latte or meal wasn't what you were expecting. Everything has to be perfection standard, apparently. This entitled world is saddening. Wheelchair accessibility: There were no issues moving through the shop using a rolling walker with seat. Walkways and turns were wide enough.
He is open from 8a -8p daily!! Great ice cream and awesome atmosphere here! My wife and mother spent quiet a while in his little shop
Ice cashier. Worst cappuccino I’ve ever had. Dumped it after 1 sip.
I’m sure this place has its strengths but if you are looking for a latte or a cappuccino DO NOT GO HERE. The espresso tastes sooooo bad :(
Can we say overcooked powered eggs for scrambled egg and toast dish. Very disappointed.
If you're in Avila, stop for an ice cream.
The young staffembers are extremely rude and snarky with their comments. They have no respect for older people or foreigners. I suggest you avoid thos shop
Cute store with ice cream, baked goods and drinks. Good selection of apparel as well and better prices than some in the area.
