Ocean-view brunch restaurant at 1025 Prospect St in La Jolla's Village, 92037, perched above La Jolla Cove with indoor fireplace seating and a patio facing the Pacific. Cody's has built its reputation on a handful of standout dishes — the crab cake Benedict, strawberry French toast, and lobster roll are the most-requested items on a focused all-day menu that runs from 8am to 3pm daily, and pastry fans detour one block to Sugar and Scribe on Fay Ave before or after. Fish and chips use fresh local cod with hand-cut fries. House-made syrups from local fruit anchor a drinks menu of pomegranate mimosas and champagne spritzers. Arrive early on weekends — the line builds fast and no reservations are taken. Harry's Coffee Shop on Girard draws the same no-reservations morning crowd but trades the ocean view for six decades of diner history.
