About Outpost Kitchen

Outpost Kitchen Description

The best ideas start with a basic need, timing and an underserved market. This is the origin of OUTPOST KITCHEN.

Both Jay and Elizabeth Lewis grew up in their own Newport Beach, but on separate sides of the world – Jay in Australia, Elizabeth in California. Eventually, they decided to set down their roots in Newport Beach, CA.

Jay and Elizabeth knew that Newport and the surrounding neighborhoods were far more than beachside communities. Instead, they saw an enclave for artists, designers, fashion aficionados, carpenters, surfboard shapers and most importantly families. Despite all these eclectic characters in one place, it was clear they had a want for the same thing: great food, great coffee and an atmosphere to match.

Taking inspiration from the 1970s beach cafes of Australia and the craft-first coffee houses of Venice Beach, OUTPOST KITCHEN seeks to recreate the familiar feeling of a neighborhood meeting spot and the go-to place for a feed after an incredible session. It’s a place where you don’t have to worry about the quality of your food and you’ll always feel at home.

And now, for an inside look at that salad bowl we showed you earlier this week. Get a taste of our Summer Bowl before the flavors of fall take over our menu.

Look up the term breakfast of champions in the dictionary and you'll find a photo of our Caveman Skillet.

It's what's on the inside that counts, fortunately for us our bowls from Salamat Ceramics are equally as rad.

Hey, it’s Jay! Many of you know the face behind Outpost Kitchen, but for those of you that don’t, we’ll tell you a little bit about our founder. He’s an Aussie native with a background in fashion merchandising and marketing, he’s a father of two, and loves to surf. Jay created Outpost out of his love for the laid-back beach cafes along his hometown on the Gold Coast - places where you can come enjoy a bite with good company. If you love the vibe here at Outpost, he’s the one to thank for it.

The perfect lunch, all wrapped up in the palm of your hand. Our Miracle Mile Wrap is just that with smoked ham, melted cheddar, avocado, baby spinach, arugula, cucumber, shredded carrot, Roma tomatoes and house balsamic.

I can't begin to tell you how refreshing it is to have such a great breakfast place in OC. I have the "It's about time" effect. Well done! Can't wait to tell everyone!

Hands down one of the best cafe's in Costa Mesa. Tucked into an industrial area, you'll find a rustic space plucked directly from the Australian Outback. The space is open and welcoming and the staff is courteous and friendly. And unsurprisingly, the food is top-notch. It's the perfect place for casual meetups and tie optional meetings alike.

Come on - what's not to love to about clean / slick (in a good way) / inviting food and location? Do this place!

Chose this place based on the Yelp recommendation, and I was not disappointed. The modest, almost industrial location belies the sweet deliciousness happening inside. Love love love the avocado toast ... best I've ever had!

A hidden gem! Situated in a light industrial/business area of West Costa Mesa serving breakfast and lunch. I ordered the Aussie Style Scramble and it was excellent and my daughter ordered the day's special. I'm not a foodie so I wont talk about tasting notes, technique, etc. Seating is two large community tables and there is plenty of parking in the back. A must try!
