Inside it has a counter where you order, a small gift shop &#8211; very cute stuff &#8211; and a quaint dining room. There is a small patio outside, with trees, plants and decorations. A nice, informal place for lunch.<br><br>Their menu is rather limited, however. They had a few soups, salads and sandwiches, as well as a daily special. In addition, they have their pies &#8211; which you can get whole or by the slice &#8211; as well other baked goods.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"602\" data-id=\"4108\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-1024x602.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-1024x602.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-300x176.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-768x452.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-1536x903.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721-800x471.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_007-e1717276614721.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My daughter got the <strong>Caesar Salad.<\/strong>  She thought it was average good, though she disliked that it came with tomatoes &#8211; she&#8217;s not a fan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"497\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307-1024x497.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4109\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307-1024x497.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307-300x146.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307-768x373.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307-800x388.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.marga.org\/foodblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/signal-2024-06-01-111852_006-e1717276596307.jpeg 1493w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I got a slice of the <strong>olallieberry pie<\/strong> with ice cream. Olallieberries are a hybrid of blackberries, raspberries and dew berries, and he pie mostly reminded me of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Boysenberry\">boysenberry<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.knotts.com\/blogs\/recipes\/recipe-of-the-month-boysenberry-pie\">pie<\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Knott%27s_Berry_Farm\">Knott&#8217;s Berry Farm<\/a>. As boysenberries are also a similar hybrid, this should not be surprising. The pie, warmed up, was quite good &#8211; not as overwhelmingly sweet as some berry pies can be. The vanilla ice cream was also very tasty and helped cut down the sweetness even further. We took a whole pie home with us, and my husband liked it quite a bit.<br><br>This simple lunch plus 2 sodas came out to about $27 before the tip &#8211; so not what you&#8217;d call cheap, but the Central Coast is expensive. Still, it was so cute, I&#8217;d stop by again.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linnsfruitbin.com\/linns_cambria_shops.html\"><strong>Linn's Easy As Pie Caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/a><br>4251 Bridge St<br>Cambria, CA <br>(805) 924-3050<br>Daily 11 AM - 5:30 PM<br><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pies and Simple Fair in Very Cute Surroundings Linn&#8217;s Easy As Pie Caf\u00e9 is one of what are now half a dozen Linn family ventures which originated from their &#8220;pick your own berry outfit&#8221; back in the &#8217;70&#8217;s.
