Cliffhanger Cafe and Bar

The Cliffhanger Café and Bar is located high atop the sea cliffs of Torrey Pines. Diners are treated to a breath-taking view of the Pacific Ocean as it spans from the beach 350 feet below, all the way to the horizon. If you’re lucky, you might catch a glimpse of dolphins or whales. Paragliders, hang gliders, RC gliders, and more all launching right in front of the outdoor dining area, make this a truly unique dining experience. (Please no outside food allowed)
