Splash Café In Southern California Claims To Have The World’s Best Clam Chowder

Splash Café in Southern California is renowned for its award-winning clam chowder, served at its Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo locations.

If you ask Southern California locals where to get the best clam chowder, the Splash Café is sure to come up. People have been flocking to the landmark café for its award-winning clam chowder for decades. And after one bite, you’ll understand what all the fuss is about.

Splash Café has been serving up its award-winning clam chowder since the late '80s.

Today, there are two locations. The original location opened in Pismo Beach in 1989.

Years later, a second Splash Café opened in San Luis Obispo.

Both restaurants serve up the café’s famous clam chowder – but that’s not their only claim to fame.

The original Splash Café is the longest-standing restaurant in Pismo Beach, while the San Luis Obispo locale is one of the few restaurants in the city with a true artisan bakery.

The clam chowder is without a doubt the most popular item on the menu. In fact, the Pismo Beach location dishes out more than 40,000 gallons of clam chowder a year – that’s more than most area restaurants serve in a lifetime!

Creamy, flavorful, and served in a bread bowl, Splash Café’s renowned chowder has people flocking from all over for a taste.

The chowder is so popular that the café even ships it nationwide.

And don’t assume that it won’t be just as tasty as the chowder served in the café.

Splash Café is so confident that the chowder will be tasty and fresh, that it offers a 100% money-back guarantee.

And while clam chowder is the star of the menu, it’s not the only thing on the menu.

There are also other seafood dishes as well as burgers, specialty sandwiches, salads, wraps, and more.
