I've had this bookmarked for a while and was in the neighborhood, so we stopped by to take a look…read more The owner, Tony Gemignani of Tony's pizza opened this small, grab 'n go, quaint bakery that sells very good bread, bagels, and baked goods! I heard that sometimes they sell out and close the shop early, but thankfully they still had bagels and gold standard baguettes ($6) left. We got there around 1:30 on a Friday afternoon. Service was friendly and welcoming. There were only a few people in line, also there to pick up baguettes. Glad we were able to snag one before they were gone! I also got an everything bagel and a cinnamon raisin bagel ($2.95/each). The bagels were a bit pricey for the size. Inside, you'll see sheet pans of baked goods being made fresh! I think all the sweet pastry was gone by the time we got there. Sadly, we didn't see any biscottis, spumoni or rainbow cookies. When we got home, we sliced up half of the baguette and toasted in the oven. It had a nice sourdough flavor (not too sour). Best eaten that day! After a few days, it can get hard. But if you can't finish it all, it makes great croutons for salad! That's what we did. It was crispy and very yummy! The bagels were also good and had a nice chew. Though the size of the bagel isn't quite like the ones you'd see in New York. But the texture was close! Hope to come back to try their sweet pastries, if I could just get there before they sell out!

I'm always in search of that bakery that makes you crave for more. That bakery where you can sense…read morethe love and quality. That bakery that has that balance of flavors and innovative combinations, beyond the typical bakery selection. We found Pacific Smoke on a whim, since it was right near my hotel. I was on a work trip but my wife came along, so wanted to find her some fresh baked good for her morning coffee. Pacific Smoke is located inside Merkado restaurant, as a popup spot. Met Toby the owner, a very genuine person, and clearly a baker (and chef) that takes great care in his craft. He went above and beyond to accommodate us, he even made a quick delivery to us when he got a break in the action. He only uses the freshest ingredients, and what's seasonal. The banana bread is worth the price of admission alone. But the mochi muffins were bomb as well. This is a must try spot, can't wait to try more flavors next time and his lunch items as well!

We ate the mango sago pudding right away and it was really nice with fresh mango, creamy sago and not too sweet! Out of the pastries, the stand out was definitely the chili crisp kouign aman which had a great sweet and spicy chili sauce coating which reminded me of hot honey, sriracha and sweet & sour sauce mixed together. The kouign aman of course is always delicious and the coating just made it even more decadent. Definitely will have to come back next year to try their other specials. The lunar new year specials were only around for 2 weeks so have to catch them when they come back!

I've enjoyed pastries from here in the past but recently I feel like the quality has gone way down…read more I was here a couple of weeks ago and it was just okay. Today the pastries looked totally off, in particular my go-to pain au chocolat. I asked why they looked so gnarly but nobody working there really seemed to speak English. No issue with that of course, I just wasn't able to figure out what was going on with the pastries so ended up walking out. B was never my favorite but it was a convenient pop-in if I was ever around Union Square. Unfortunately it's off the list for now.

However, with 2026 economy, I don't make the income I used to, so I like to treat myself. I don't go as often, so going for a yummy patisserie and a coffee drink, is definitely a treat! Always leaving them a cash tip. I haven't been in for a while, as I'm budgeting and the owners are at their other location in Concord mostly now. Their hours have reduced, 8-1 thurs -Sat and if you get there at noon, be aware they start breaking things down because they close at 1:00. Getting there at noon on a Saturday with only two customers in the shop, sitting and eating. Nobody in line, I am getting to go a latte drink and a cinnamon morning bun. I waited over 10 mins for my coffee drink. The person who usually does the drinks wasn't there, I guess was in the back so someone else was doing it. She heard and knew what I ordered, and never once told me I have a couple of drinks ahead of yours. It's going to be a wait. Apparently there were drink orders that were never told ahead of time to make and they were really behind. Only two customers in the whole shop. I have somewhere to go later, so I just ask, "hey, I didn't realize it was going to take this long."Between the music playing in my EarPod and the espresso machine I didn't hear her say to the cashier to give me my money back. I wasn't wanting my money back. I wanted my coffee drink with my pastry and the no communication. Like, "yours is next, or sorry for the wait. Nothing. Instead I see her going slower and told the customer before me to come back and gave her my espresso shot that was to go in my drink! Very passive aggressive and a power move, unhappy miserable, angry, person. Whoever this person is really rude, and has no business being around people. They need to keep the usual barista up front with long dark hair, who is always bubbly friendly, efficient and has impeccable customer service. The one today was like "I'd rather give you your money back and get the fk out" Rather than work on my customer service. I just think with all that's going on in the world, being kind, compassionate, communicative and accountability goes a long way. You never know what someone is going through. Maybe me coming in for a $5 morning bun and an $6 oat milk latte with my fixed income from being on a medical leave, is what makes my day. I wish for the angry barista, would go through sensitive and diversity customer service training. Because it really felt like she has some homophobia/bigotry towards me.

From cookies to cupcakes and cakes, I honestly didn't even know where to start because everything looked so good. The displays are packed with fresh desserts and classic Italian pastries and they also offer a variety of coffee and espresso drinks to pair with them. The atmosphere feels very cozy and welcoming, especially with the outdoor seating and little café vibe. Everything I tried was rich and well made. Definitely a dangerous place if you love desserts because you'll probably want to walk out with more than one thing. A nice little hidden gem to stop by for coffee, pastries or just to satisfy a craving before starting the day.
