The price you pay for your reservation is just for the table. It does not include any food or drinks. We ordered the minimal amount of food and drink and it was still $50 on top of the 60 we'd already paid for the table. And then they had the nerve to require a donation which is illegal, a one dollar donation to rollerskate after paying $60 for the table. I kindly refused and let them know that it's illegal to require a donation. My granddaughter loved it. It's a one and done though.

Decor is nice but get rid of the fruit flies! They were all over the bar area when we were there. Farro salad had no flavor and only the pickled onions saved the dish. Dijon in the grilled cheese is a bad idea. Pink hummus was excellent. If you're going to charge a $25pp cover, get rid of the files and season the food.
It was cute, the food was basic .
The photo ops were adorable . I expected a bit more happening on the inside. It would have been cute to have Barbie episodes playing on TV's and the music from the show as well. The staff were friendly and quick .
This was super cute! For Barbie fans, I definitely
This was super cute! For Barbie fans, I definitely recommend checking it out. The whole place was decked out perfectly. I loved how they represented a variety of different Barbie's! Now they are a bit ridiculous with pricing, as it basically cost you just to enter, and they get you but saying you get a food voucher credit and merchandise credit.... But both don't really cover much as you will still be paying way more. Overall, for the photo ops, and vibes makes it still worth it.
I totally loved my experience at the Malibu Barbie Cafe.
It brought back memories of my childhood especially seeing the little girls with their barbies and cute outfits having fun at the café. I'm glad this trendy pop-up made its way to San Diego. I was transported to 1970s Malibu, California with a sea of poppin' Barbie colors, beachy vibes, and retro glam all around. Thanks to the nicely dressed coordinated Barbie staff for their terrific customer service! The tasty Barbie-inspired menu, tons of themed activities including photo opps and Barbie merch were out of sight!! I highly recommend this unique immersive dining experience to the Yelp Community :-)
Ok this is more for the experience than the food.
The food was not very good, with a small and odd menu to have all day. The desserts came out and were presented in a very cute way! Hostesses were so nice and really fit the vibe. It's a pink Barbie dream space. The atmosphere was very cute, you could see the husbands who came to make their wives happy haha. There are plenty of instagram worthy photo spots inside and outside. If you like pink and or Barbie, you'll love it! Outside there's a Barbie lifeguard chair and bench swing, but the main attraction outside is the roller skating area. You can rent your skates for $1 and leave your shoes as collateral. Kids MUST wear helmets and wrist, elbow and knee pads. All which you get with the skates. My boys weren't thrilled about the "girlie" helmets. If I'd known better I would have brought them their own helmets bc the rented ones did not fit and hardly stayed on. It was a fun experience to do once and say you've done it.

Came with a bunch of girlfriends but this experience would be better for families and younger kids. We still had fun and enjoyed all the photo opportunities! You're basically paying for the experience. The food and service were mediocre. Service was extremely slow and the food is overpriced for what it's worth. The menu is catered for a child's palate so don't have high expectations. They also have a "roller skating rink" where you can rent roller skates. (It is not a real roller skating rink but still cute!)

My friends and I attended this cafe hoping it would be a fun time to spend Labor Day. The dip for the fruit sticks tasted like butt cheese with sprinkles. The woman working there did not tell me what was in it. The grilled cheese had sugar in it and the cheese was not melted. The Nutella cake pop tasted like coffee. The burger had an absurd amount of meat and no vegetables. The salad smelled soooo foul, made me return it for French fries but those were stale. The mood given from staff was not Barbie, in fact I felt sad and tired the whole time and the food made it worse. Too tired that I could not take any photos. The small roller skating rink only spraying disinfectant on the helmets and skates, giving all of us forehead acne right after. The server took our food before we finished, and the merchandise was limited and overpriced. The location was suspicious and walk nearly a mile for parking. By the way, the $200 entrance fee does not include getting a table (which took used about an hour) To conclude, I would not recommend this cafe for any child or adult. There were no fun events besides laughing over the food and small venue. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this wasn't it. Sincerely, a group of unsatisfied customers.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Malibu Barbie Cafe San Diego at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Malibu Barbie Cafe San Diego page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Malibu Barbie Cafe San Diego to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Malibu Barbie Cafe San Diego!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
