    the UNCLE TIGER (bacon, avocado, cheddar, arugula, pickled onions, and chipotle crema on toasted seeded sourdough bread)
    Scott T.

    I was jonesing for Dutch Crunch Bread, and when I did a Yelp search, this place popped up. weird that I've eaten more than a couple of times next door (Tanner's Prime Burger) and across the street (Corner Pizza) and never thought to stroll inside for a quick look around. the young lady at the register was delightful and the display cases we browsed while waiting for our sandwiches were brimming with tempting goodies. my eighteen-year-old got the UNCLE TIGER (bacon, avocado, cheddar, arugula, pickled onions, and chipotle crema on toasted seeded sourdough bread) and gave it two enthusiastic thumbs up. I had the RANCH HAND (bacon, turkey, cheddar, arugula, red onion, chipotle honey crema, and ranch dressing on toasted Dutch Crunch bread) and it also got two enthusiastic thumbs up. we shared (as much as you can share desert with a teenager armed with a spoon he can wield like a broadsword) a CREME BRULEE TART (dark chocolate ganache, vanilla custard, sponge cake, and torched sugar crust). he's been busy mastering the fine art of brûlée making and clearly expressed his opinion that theirs is pretty good but his are better. BLACKMARKET BAKERY is different sort of place. if you're expecting something old-school sandwich-wise, rethink your choice. but if you're flexible enough to enjoy something out of the ordinary, this is a ways down a road less traveled lunch experience.

    What a cute little bakery! Phenomenal almond croissant! I get a lot of almond croissants and this is one of the best. So much filling and topping with tons of flavor. Will definitely come back.

    This spot was close to HomeState and my girlfriend felt like an iced coffee to enjoy for the remainder of the drive home. I got one of their butter croissants and it was fluffy and perfect. I would love to come back and try more of their stuff and take home bread to make things with later on. I hope this place continues to thrive on.

    Black Market Bakery is finally open in South Oceanside! But this gem of a spot is more than just bakery, it's a great pastry shop that I feel many will enjoy. Located on Vista Way in South Oceanside and part of the Freeman Collective (just next to HomeState), Black Market Bakery has a parking lot in front of it. There's a little bit of patio seating available and plenty of seating inside. Because of the setup, small groups can also enjoy sitting in both settings. The decor is very modern, trendy and still simple. There was alternative rock & pop playing on their playlist and fit the mood. There restroom is small, simple & clean. They've got cookies, cakes, shortbreads, brownies, brittles, tarts, dessert bars, buns, croissants, sandwiches , a delicious breakfast burrito and even cheesecakes. They also carry vegetarian options. There's also fresh bread baked daily. I'm personally happy that Black Market Bakery is now open and I think it's a benefit to our community.

    Black Market - Oceanside, CA Perfect stop after Legoland! Great coffee, tasty food, and chill vibes. Their breakfast sandwich is on point--just what we needed before heading back to Ontario. Highly recommend for a quick, satisfying break.

    12 out of 10 - everything was perfect. I am so excited that Blackmarket Bakery is finally open in North County!! We've been long going to the Costa Mesa and North Park locations and knew this location would be amazing and it certainly didn't disappoint! We went opening day and 10/10 on ambiance and environment - it was so cute and there was ample seating indoor and outdoor. Loved all of the little details like the curved coffee bar, toaster display stands and ample seating w/ plugs. The staff were absolutely wonderful and everyone was bustling at 8:00 am with fresh bread, cookies and items already out on display with more coming out while we were in line (which was dangerous as we kept adding to our list). I got the fresh Dutch Crunch bread loaf, Berry Poppins, Brioche Cinnamon Roll, a sugar cookie, a gingerbread cookie, an oat milk latte and a 70% chocolate bar. Every item was incredible. Everything was tasty, fresh and shockingly well priced. My husband and I have already agreed to get our fresh bread here weekly because it was absolutely delicious. The Berry Poppins was like the best homemade pop tart you've ever had, the brioche cinnamon roll was so tasty and sweet but not too sweet. And the latte was perfect - not bitter or too acidic, just perfect. Also LOVE the heat sleeve on the coffee - we got a good laugh out of it. Truly 12/10

    Lemon Rosemary Loaf

    Stopped by Blackmarket Bakery and really liked the vibe. It's got an artsy, relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to hang out for a bit. We ordered the breakfast burrito, churro croissants, piña colada matcha, blackberry matcha, and a loaf of lemon rosemary bread. The burrito was the highlight for me. It was super flavorful and easily one of the best I've had in a while. The churro croissants were good but tasted more like a cinnamon pastry than a churro or a croissant. The piña colada matcha wasn't really my thing, but it was interesting and worth trying. The blackberry matcha was great and something I'd definitely order again. I haven't tried the bread yet, but it looks solid. Service was excellent. Everyone working there was friendly and made the experience even better. I'll definitely be back.

    I had to search many bakeries to find one with cinnamon rolls, so we chose black market. They didn't have them, but the awesome baker, Jericho, said he had used the same ingredients to make some monkey bread to replace it. It did not disappoint! Perfectly gooey caramel, just the right texture of dough...so delicious! The chocolate hazelnut twist was my personal favorite! The croissant dough was held the perfect crunch outside and tenderness inside which accompanied the perfect filling. I keep saying perfect because they were! So worth the drive! And the service was fast and friendly!

    Went on a Sunday morning and service was slow for breakfast burritos but it was worth it ! Staff members were really nice. Also, the BEST cinnamon rolls I've ever had in my life ... I still dream about them. Lol

    REALLY cute bakery in the Freeman Collective. Lots of small cafe tables to enjoy a coffee and a pastry, and the entire bakery is really cute overall. Good luck trying to go home with just one thing!

That's exactly what my family and I did before heading into the restaurant! The process was easy and convenient. When you walk in, you can grab your own menu, find an open table, and once you decide what you'd like, you place your order and receive a number. The fountain drinks, coffee, and tea are self-serve, which makes everything simple and convenient. Our visit was great! I ordered the chilaquiles, and they were delicious--flavorful but not spicy. My kids ordered chicken and fries, while my daughter got a hamburger, which she really enjoyed. Another thing I liked is that since you pay when you order, once you're finished eating, you can simply leave without having to wait for the check. I also want to give a special thank you to Tiffany, the manager. I accidentally forgot my wallet, and thankfully someone turned it in. Tiffany was extremely helpful and made sure I was able to get it back. I truly appreciate her and the staff at Stratford! Overall, I'm very pleased with the location, the food, and especially the customer service. My family and I will definitely be going back!!

Oceanside is a part of my childhood, how could I miss it? Especially since the bites are awe-inspiring. Lemon pancakes are the moment, they're slightly zesty and mildly sweet. Perfect for sunny days and oh-so-photogenic. If you're a scrambles and omelette boy like me, you have another reason to love this place. I highly recommend the coffee and small treats too. Drinks are refillable and seating is readily available. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are accessible. Ordering is done at the counter, you'll be given a number to post at your table once you complete your transaction. Overall, the service is excellent. We only had one weird experience with a tall girly who had major attitude problems. I recently brought my parents for their anniversary and we had a pleasant time.

When I'm craving a delicious breakfast made with high-quality, organic, whole-food ingredients, I can order online, swing by, and pick it up without dealing with the rush.

They also have a charming little gift shop with flowers and thoughtfully curated items that make the space feel even more special. With both indoor and outdoor seating, plus a dog-friendly patio, it's an easy place to meet friends or enjoy a quiet morning. Parking can be a little hit or miss, but in my experience, it usually hits. Whether you're grabbing breakfast to go or staying to soak up the vibes, Communal Coffee is always a solid choice.

It's a great spot to meet up with friends or bring my mom when she arrives at the Oside train station from Grover Beach. It's a wonderful place to grab a flavored latte, seasonal drink, a glass of wine and a lunch bite, or all of the above! I also look forward to wandering through their gift area every time, where they stock unique jewelry, candles, fragrance rollerballs and 'clean' nail polish, plants and pots, kids' merchandise, t-shirts, and other cute stuff. I always buy something extra (and special) when I come. Their coffee bar is open, as is the general space, and there is plenty of seating outside in front and in back. You can watch the baristas make your drink and peep the beautiful Italian espresso machine and lovely bouquet of dried flowers by the bar while doing so. They bring their food out to you and when your espresso drink is ready they set it on the bar for you to pick up. Definitely a place to hang vs. grabbing a quick drink and rushing off about your day. I always want to stay and catch up with friends or bring my laptop to do some work, and they never make me feel rushed. Truly one of my favorite coffee shops in North County and in SD in general. (There is another high quality coffee shop in Oceanside that has incredible coffee and pastries--I won't mention the name--but I sometimes sense an attitude from the staff there, and that is a bit of a turnoff.) Go to Communal...you will not regret it!

The avocado toast was burnt, potatoes were flavorless and unevenly cooked, and the "poached" eggs were hard in the middle. Prices are higher, service is slow, and overall it just feels like a place that exists now purely to gouge tourists in Oceanside. We won't be going back.
