[@NMTW6]

I'm telling you this channel is one of youtube's best-kept secrets!

[@californiathroughmylens]

I agree! :)

[@luisaann4711]

totally!!

[@beverlymireles8400]

I love Cambria. My boyfriend and I found this place about 4 years ago. We fell in love with it so much that we go more than 5 times a year. He proposed to me at sunset by the love locks.

[@FrozenSabertooth43]

You love me? Because that’s my name!

[@babygurl1209100]

Nice video. I grew up in Cambria. I was there from 1969 until 1982.

[@HeyStevie100]

I love the Central Coast

[@californiathroughmylens]

Me too!

[@JCEMT23]

Born and raised in Cambria, ‘Main Street Grill’ Tri-Tip Sandwich is without a doubt the best food option in Cambria. Try it next time. Great Channel. 👍

[@kevina5584]

Oh and I really like the food suggestions at different budgets too

[@lionelmeza7694]

Right on about Robin's. Lived in the area for some time and I would always bring guests there and they never disappoint.

[@TheScaryTruthCatalyst]

Been here! Its beautiful and I have always wanted to go back!

[@streetdreamz210]

My elementary school in Bakersfield took me there to camp in fifth grade in 26 now and hope to go back one day

[@lisahershey566]

Thank you! Planning a 2 week trip this summer and your videos have really helped me plan my itinerary. Things to do, where to do, what to eat, etc. My teenage daughters love your videos too. Your videos are so well edited and well paced. I like how you recommend something for everyone. Some of the best CA travel vlogs out there.

[@lindsayhengehold5341]

Love Cambria CA!

[@lgatz6882]

Just came across your channel in the attempt to deal with my quarantine wanderlust. I am SO happy I did!

[@rufusmacck3712]

The best video for visiting Cambria by far. Loved it. 5 Stars!

[@mikepzep]

If you guys are there again. Check out Moomstone Beach Cafe. and try their fish tacos. The tacos are only served during the Cafe's lunch time.

[@shokot3546]

Aww the baby goats!!😍

[@californiathroughmylens]

We spent more time looking at them then I care to admit haha

[@Lindyphuoc]

Thank you, this helps for my first time trip to Cambria.

[@offcy3318]

anyone go there during the fourth of july? amazing fire work shows!

[@reyesplace1096]

Cambria is marvelous

[@LukesLiife]

We visited here in 2016 travelling from San Fran to LA 💜 Literally one of the most stunning places I’ve ever been x

[@akidas101]

Your videos are always unique and provide the exact points someone new might want to visit.Thanks for the super reviews through the years.

[@CoinOpTV]

Those food options made me wanna drive up there just for a bite!

[@anniemchong]

Thank You! I was trying to think of a place to take my girls for their birthday next month.

[@cato451]

My favorite California destination. I’ve been going to Cambria since the 1970s.

[@stardustgirl2904]

Oh my gosh, I grew up going there on vacation every year since I was 4 years old! I have traveled the world, but somehow Cambria and San Simeone is my happy place! I love how beautiful it truly is!😇🍁🌻🍁💜

[@markmorris5880]

My grandparents used to live in Cambria back in the 1970s and I spent all my Summers out there with them they lived off of Langton Street close to one of the writers for the Muppet Show who lived in Cambria also we spent all of our time fishing down in cayucos near Morro Bay and up at the San Simeon Pier great days!!

[@jpadicecoffee9812]

Planning to go here soon, so this channel is my go-to... The food at the end almost overcome the sight seeing attractions..

[@BanBiofuels]

*Very nice video.* As good as any tour video I have seen on KZbin. 10 out of 10.

[@leominchala5295]

Loved the video!! Also, if you go to Cambria in the month of October you’ll see the Scarecrow Festival. It’s all over town.

[@californiathroughmylens]

I have always wanted to see that but have never been there during the right time. Maybe this year!

[@offcy3318]

you gotta go during the fourth of july, massvei firework show on moonstone beach

[@tanveerkaur911]

Last time we were there for a day trip, we went to Moonstone Beach & Robin's! And loved it! Have to take another trip soon!

[@californiathroughmylens]

Those are two of the best spots in the city for sure.

[@RoloSolis81]

Damn you now im hungry!!! Do a top list for Paso Robles!!!!

[@californiathroughmylens]

haha so am I! Alright, I will add that to the list and hopefully I can do it one of these days!

[@NMTW6]

LOL!!! IKR!!!

[@805jtorres]

Sea Chest restaurant on Moonstone is epic. No reservations. People start lining up about an hour before it opens for dinner. Cozy and great food.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Great tip, I wanted to visit that last time but I will have to visit in the future!

[@SnipzSmooth]

Found by chance to spend the night on the way from san francisco to los angeles, a wonderful find, a place with a lot of charm. thank you very much for the insight into Hearst Castle. We were denied access in 2016 because of the great fire in the backcountry. The visitor station became a base station for the arriving firefighters and we were instructed to head back to the sea. Thank God the fire did not reach this wonderful property. Hearst Castle was then the place to be for the Hollywood stars, who received an invitation to the legendary parties was a lucky one. Many thanks for your great videos. Best wishes from Germany

[@robertchorley]

Blew me away as on this one, glad we had planned to spend an overnight in Cambria now. looking forward to exploring this area. Great cinematography and work as always.

[@tinabeane]

I've never heard of it before a few friends started going there. Looks like a great weekend getaway. Well done on the information and video!! :)

[@californiathroughmylens]

Thanks for the comment and yea its a pretty great spot

[@MrSillyFun]

As I'm from Wales (the other name for Cambria) I was fascinated by this video. I really enjoy your food reviews! When do we get to see "Top Ten Tastiest Bites in California"?

[@EE-zn8fb]

That nitwit ridge looks like a definite visit!

[@outdoorintrovert_]

next time you'll have to set up a tour of the Chinese Temple with Greenspace at Creekside Reserve or check out the Strawberry Canyon trail!

[@djhemry]

Your videos are so well done! Thank you for all the great work you do!

[@oliversch7271]

I love the coastline another great video from the two of you👍

[@californiathroughmylens]

Thanks, we appreciate it!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

I've visited Cambria twice and look forward to going back again. We parked our RV at an RV park right on the beach. I always visit the antique stores there as you can find some great stuff at low prices due to being outside of a major city.

[@stephaniec.2520]

We are from California but live in Tennessee now. Cambria has always been one of my favorite spots in the world & it was such fun to join you there for a little while. If COVID ever ends, I would love to travel & enjoy the places in Cambria & San Simeon that you are suggesting. Sorry if name icon comes up 2x. Some sort of computer glitch we don't know how to fix.

[@Rocksider2525]

Love this place like everyone else that's been there. Stayed in a little hotel at the north end that had a little 9 hole golf course(long gone) and walked with the kids all over that town and it's beaches. Great Rock finds and cliffs that we're amazing. Just a short drive to the elephant seals( plan a trip around seeing that) and the Hearst Castle, just a great place to see. The quaint little town of Cambria.....phenominal

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Nice list! Fun little town and love this whole area. We usually camp at San Simeon to visit Cambria. And now I want food 😬

[@californiathroughmylens]

Hows the camping there?

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

California Through My Lens we like the sites up on the hill - nice views and far apart enough for us. The ones down in the flat section are ok - some nicer than others, but a bit close for us. Have always had a blast there! As we always do...

[@sweetsongstress7398]

Feed me! Can't wait to get there...

[@thedailydaily]

Cambria is a beautiful place. Moonstone beach, Nit Whit Ridge, and the small business are all beautiful. If you have the time. If you have time I highly recommend going to Harmony Pop. 18, they have a local creamery pottery shop and glass studio. The central coast is a beautiful place.

[@walkingtours3885]

I want to go for a walk here. It's been a few years since I was last here, I need to go back soon.

[@karufranco9494]

thank you for showing us places......I would like to visit them soon

[@californiathroughmylens]

No problem, thanks for the comment!

[@SpencerJ289]

Red Moose is a nice hidden gem

[@marisolmarquez5044]

Josh, you’re the best.

[@sdtrautman]

I will be there next month...thanks for the happening spots. Great video as usual.

[@californiathroughmylens]

So awesome, glad the post was timely!

[@stardustgirl2904]

Be sure and smell that wonderful air ,up there! It's a great place to be! I enjoy nature so much, it's such a Joy to see all the beauty in the world, that God CREATED just for us!😇🍁🌻🍁

[@ronniematrix89]

Thanks for this great info, I plan on putting it to great use while exploring beautiful california.

[@snoo333]

thank you for the recommendations.

[@OurNationalAdventure]

Fantastic! We will be heading that way soon.

[@kevina5584]

as always entertaining. Nit Wit Ridge, the poor man's hearst castle tour lol

[@kaosaechao6555]

Beautiful place

[@Italionmex]

Another great video Josh and Amy. I always like you’re Central Coast videos. Even being a SLO local, I learn a lot from you’re recommendations. I never knew about the country fried steak. Country fried steak is one of my favorite comfort foods. I have a few places I like in the area. I am going to have it there in Cambria now. Boni’s tacos are also fantastic. Great recommendations for anyone coming to visit the central coast.

[@leaf5008]

Awesome! Thanks

[@stardustgirl2904]

Linn's is good , but nothing to write home about ! I prefer Robins, there food and atmosphere are amazing, and the Cambria grill! The food is great and very affordable!

[@MRumi-jw7td]

thank you

[@marigarza9201]

I need to make another trip up north 😁

[@Whocares.........]

Thanks Josh! Comfort food is my weakness!

[@californiathroughmylens]

Me too! I love a good chicken fried steak every once in a while!

[@cidifede1]

I love your channel. Keep up all of the great work. It shows in your editing. Let me know if you are ever in Napa again. I have a restaurant here and we would love to host you and Amy.

[@shirin6700]

You have the best contents

[@jeffreyvasquez3911]

Enjoy Cambria.

[@monatuazon9699]

funny we were just thinking about going there next weekend!! Thanks for all the recommendations we definitely want to try everything i hope one night and two days are enough .. i wanna try and eat that chicken steak looks really good hmmm yummy for my tummy!! 👍👍👍😘😘

[@californiathroughmylens]

That's so awesome! I wish I was going back next weekend, I love hanging out in Cambria!

[@vietnam1566]

very nice video, thank you for providing the names of places, easier to Google address and telephone numbers, I subscribed it.

[@fredsmith7264]

Great video.

[@RayBouknight]

Aw man! We were just there 2 weeks ago. Could have used this video then! lol

[@californiathroughmylens]

Haha, another reason to go back!

[@eva-nr2bs]

Thank you.

[@WallStreetIceCream]

Soo beautiful

[@toshibavoodoo]

AWESOME!! My once a year work trip to San Francisco has a few extra strops now. Love watching video while looking at google maps, as always great content!!

[@californiathroughmylens]

So awesome, make a week out of it and just drive slow up Pacific Coast Highway. So many gems to check out!

[@toshibavoodoo]

@@californiathroughmylens I usually plan on hitting Cambria at sun up and tool around coast, sun down back to 70MPH. Love the drive.

[@californiathroughmylens]

@@toshibavoodoo That's a good way to do it. I always go as hard as I can till sundown then relax haha

[@toshibavoodoo]

@@californiathroughmylens I'm always battling the time of day, keeping as much of the want to see during sun up is challenging. Must be worse for you, on planning your video, and needing light to get good film.

[@papagen00]

awesome video, any hotel recommendations in Cambria?

[@cyjeren1627]

envy much! i keep waiting on your new post.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Appreciate the support!

[@stevefrandsen]

Greetings from Detroit. If you are ever here check out Slow's BBQ in Corktown. Pretty impressive!

[@tombowers2020]

Other good things to do: Cambria Pines Lodge - Dinner, Dancing, Bar Los Cambritas - Dinner, Dancing, Bar Black Cat - Restaurant Sea Chest - Restaurant Shamel Park - Public park, pool, playground, beach access

[@stardustgirl2904]

The Sea Chest is over rated to me, in some respects, and it's CASH only!$$$$$ But perhaps we ordered the wrong thing!

[@stardustgirl2904]

We stay at the little yellow house in Cambria, it's travel themed,and very affordable for a house rental. If you're going in a large group, renting a vacation home is a great option! You can split the cost!

[@shirleebusch1459]

You missed Cambria Pines Lodge. Historic and scenic.

[@sashaleen4456]

Excellent 😀 !!! new subscriber 🙌👍 !!!

[@DHILL82]

Hi everyone. I’m travelling from LA to montray in a few weeks. I can’t wait. Is it possible to do this in a day, albeit a tough day ?

[@StellarFella]

Pie with goat cheese on it is what I crave.

[@sdtrautman]

What was the food item at 6:38 ? another awesome video...thanks

[@lornasarkar5378]

You guys are awesome. Question: what hotel or inn did u stay in

[@sylvestercw1989]

I'll be making a roadtrip from LA to Santa Barbara (stay 1 night), and then from Santa Barbara up to Monterey. I'm having a dilemma now, should I stay in Cambria or Morro Bay for 1 night during the roadtrip in-between Santa Barbara-Monterey?

[@ronirobles9765]

You should sto at the Sea Chest next visit 😍

[@SaturnNyne]

Thank you for pronouncing Cambria correctly! But as for the lighthouse pronunciation, it's Piedras, not Pierdas.

[@SaturnNyne]

@JoeDurty104 You can pick up the pamphlet on this at our historical museum.

[@laurentgorda3838]

What a shame, I've been there in 2018 august, but I didn't stop. Fortunately, you did.

[@WelshWing98]

Fun fact: Cambria is the Latin name for Wales.

[@offcy3318]

My family has been going there for 27 years in a row now,

[@djp1234]

Do a video on the Lost Coast

[@tombowers2020]

My opinion, the best Sea Chest item is shrimp and scallops pasta...mmmmm.

[@nel777tt9]

How cold is it in january?

[@chaveznury]

❤️❤️❤️

[@linnagary42]

i used to work at the castle if you go don't forget to see the movie and for the love of god don't try and pet the elephant seals we had a guy have his arm taken off, also best place to eat in that whole town is the main street grill.

[@FrozenSabertooth43]

CAMBRIA IS MY NAME! I AM POPULAR!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dominicshirley1734]

Why has there not been a visit to Fresno?

[@californiathroughmylens]

What's your favorite spots in Fresno?

[@hankgs]

Forgot to mention the tiny town of Harmony...!

[@eskwadrat]

Just an average place to visit. Must be special for Californians.

[@theamaturepro]

I used to work around goats all the time and never was able to not be creeped out by their eyes. Freaky

[@patrickspicer5190]

Tbh I originally found out about Cambria because of GTA V.

[@Thingsido45]

I live in San simeon

[@davegrohlenjoyer877]

My name is cambria lmao

[@kurtmcq]

A baby goat is called a "kid". city boy.
