I say it all the time in my reviews. I've had access to a plethora of coffee and matcha industry. And wherever I am on the globe, I always look for these shops during our adventures. Milly & Illian. My gosh. So welcoming. So proud of the shop, its products and their leadership. I hope the owners know. First timer here and I spent $52. Readers: the $52 was completely worth it as soon as we took a bite of the passion fruit mochi. Heaven sent. It's akin to Kailua's Bits & Bites on Oahu. Please don't ever close. Please stay open longer. This is the first time I've tried this after wanting to visit for so many years. I work full time andddd I live in 707 so it's a little bit of a trek out here. Orrrrr consider bringing this to 707- I would recommend Benicia if you are familiar with first street. You'd kill it here! I want to bring it back to my guys Milly and Illian. I'm big big big on energy and customer service and you both broughttttt it. Being 38 when I visit these very trendy IG worthy spots, I'm usually disappointed- if not by the coffee or dessert, most definitely by the customer service. Read all my reviews, it's my first comment usually. To the owners reading this, seriously give a shout out to these lovlies. They started my day on the right foot. Xoxo Can't wait to see what you bring back from Taiwan (see the guys shared where you are- sure to make the matcha and mochi shop even cooler). I'll come back soon! Kathleen

I hate to write this review because I've been a supporter and frequent customer of Third Culture…read moresince they moved to Walnut Creek a few years ago. Their service kind of sucks. I'm not waiting more than 10 minutes while their employees peacefully stand around and refuse to take orders. This has honestly happened every visit, but I've had enough today. Having experienced many of their seasonal drinks, I'm often like "did these people even try their own drinks". Their year-round menu is lacking, and their lychee drink does not hold up to other new matcha store openings. If they want to stick around with their prices and terrible customer service, they seriously need to step it up. Workers are rude and unkind, they look disengaged and so bored. I won't be supporting this business again, except to redeem all my points.

As I was heading towards the door, two women were peeking in and said the place had been remodeled. While I looked at the display case, another woman was at the register to pay but had no cash and no apps to pay as the place is cash or tap only. The two ladies that came in paid for her purchase. How kind is that?? I got my usual fritter, a plain old fashioned for the hubby and a cinnamon sugar malasada. They threw in 3 doughnut hole complimentary! The fritter is thin, had apples and isn't bad. I actually liked that it wasn't thick which can cause it to be gummy or undercooked inside. It was slightly burnt along the edges which can happen because these guys need more fry time. It was lacking cinnamon for me but overall, not bad. Not too sweet either. Happy to come back and get some raised doughnuts to try as well. Plenty of parking in the lot so give this place a try. Please support this local business.

My Office wanted donuts, so I dropped into Christy's to grab some…read more Of course, donuts are one of the things that I really can't resist if they're in front of me, so I had to try one... and a half. They aren't the best donuts I've ever had, but they were pretty good! I definitely wouldn't turn one away. I'm knocking them one star because, even though it was pretty early, I thought the selection wasn't amazing, and they're CASH ONLY. I can't believe I even had cash because I NEVER have cash, and now I DON'T have cash anymore because I spent it on freaking donuts. Crisis averted, but I was pretty sure I was going to have to have to walk out and leave my dozen donuts behind. I feel a little harsh knocking a star for that, but come on.

The line moved too quick I wish i couldve have more time to decide so i ended up getting more than I wanted. We got there Chocolate croissant, brioche, Flan Vanille, macaroons, marshmallow, 2 tuna sandwich, ham and cheese croissant and the croque monsieur. Although everything was pleasant our favorite was the Flan Vanille and the tuna sandwiches. The Flan vanille is my new favorite dessert going forward. I know it was a busy day and the staff was busy with the orders and service making tables available however they could improve in checking their bathroom and trash bins. All bins were too full even one by the counter. We notice that the staff continously wiping the counter but didnt notice the overflowing trash bin. Other than that i couldnt stop bragging about Mason Benoit on my social media. We will definitely come back.

Donuts are more cakey and less light, but each is designed super cutely and includes a donut hole at the top for convenient snacking or sharing.

I ordered a combo of the weekly menu, which included two lemon poppyseed donuts, two signature vanilla donuts and two chocolate chip donuts.

My partner realized it was not ours but the lady kept pushing it towards us. Then the lady grabbed the bag and told the girl in the from about something being the wrong order and how someone walked out. She then called my name and handed us a bag that had two breakfast sandwich and it had my name and the ticket on there. We get home and one is the wrong sandwich. So it sounds like from the previous order they tried to give us this happens a lot. Sucks because we went home and I do not feel like driving all the way back waisting gas so my partner ended up eating it because I do not like the sausage breakfast Sandwiches. Maybe double check before you give peoples orders so this does not happen because the lady told the young female at the register about someone before us with the wrong order and walking out. I know if you go back they will refund it but sometimes others don't want drive all the way back. That's the only thing maybe just double check I know mistakes happen but I really don't like the sausage Sandwiches and did not want to drive back

My go-to is always an original glazed as it's not covered up with frills and distractions from truly tasting the dough. At first look, it wasn't overly opague aka covered in sugar glaze. It had just enough to sweet the top. It was a nice chew and sponginess that made me want to take another bite. Not too sweet. I only cut half as I wanted to try something sweeter, working my way up. I love a good raspberry jelly donut. Again, nice chew and not too sweet. Filling didn't have that artificially taste and spread evenly with each bite. I enjoyed it. DD loved the chocolate cake with cereal top. She didn't share bc it was that good to her. Hubs ate the chocolate glaze and maple bar by himself so I couldn't taste either. I guess the fam enjoyed it. Wish they had some French Cruellers as that's another favorite of mine. Before we had the sweets, we did share a croissant bacon egg cheese sandwich. Ngl, I was pleasantly surprised. Microwaved crispy bacon and melted cheese and it was a pretty tasty breakfast sandwich was for a donut shop. I'd drive across town again for more when I get another fix and donut what to eat for breakfast

I think the problem is that I couldn't get past the lack of a restroom in the area. They had some portables, but they are making food and we are supposed to eat it. Where are they washing their hands? This area is also pretty cold so if you go, make sure that you have a coat, scarf and hat. I'll never make that mistake again. But because of the cold, I didn't want to eat outside so our food got a cold, but it was good. My husband liked the food he got, but gluten free options are super limited. They get a third star because of the bar! Now there was only one person working there and that's fine because he could go get a snack or something and come back to pour drinks, but again. The restroom issue. Where does he wash his hands, what if he has a cold and sneezes into them, and so on. That's where my mind went. The vendors are quite nice and were helpful and weren't mean when they answered my GF questions and I appreciate that. So, this is like the little engine that could. I can see that it is a gathering spot for people and they have music and speakers which is cool. So I saw and felt a community vibe and people really seemed to like going. If I lived in the area, I may try it a bit more, but in all honestly, Oakland Museum's Off the Grid event is everything I wish this was. I'm sure that they will get there, but don't want to hang out while they figure it out.
