"Opening Tuesday, December 1 inside Seaport Village’s lighthouse structure, the daytime eatery expands the Spill the Beans concept that launched in the Gaslamp in 2017 and is owned by The Verant Group (barleymash, Maverick’s Beach Club). It will focus primarily on counter service with a few outdoor tables and a menu built around housemade “California-style” bagels in non-traditional varieties like habanero and jack cheese or bacon and white cheddar, served with cream cheeses flavored from garlic and red chili to wasabi, ginger, and soy. Other offerings include customizable breakfast sandwiches, protein bowls, and oatmeal. Partnering exclusively with local Dark Horse Coffee Roasters for all coffee and espresso — ranging from classic drip coffee to cold brew and specialty beverages — the cafe will also serve tea and kombucha. Owner Dave Jones says they’re looking forward to being part of Seaport Village’s modernization and that the group doesn’t have any other active expansion plans for the Spill the Beans brand." - Candice Woo
