I figure that means they're treating their employees well, and more of a reason to support them! I wish I had gotten a picture of my favorite, a vegetable sandwich with avocado, sweet potato, and scallion aioli. Lots of seating both inside and outside on the back patio. Please be aware, this place is quite busy most days (for a reason) and there very likely will be a line and a wait. Not the kind of place you go to rush, and I think that's a good thing in this case :)

Hipster spot. Waited 20 minutes in a line only to get to the…read morefront and be told it would be 20-25 more minutes for 1 breakfast sandwich to be made. Your under staffing is not your customer's problem. Never experienced anything like this. They essentially turned me away after waiting in a 20 minute line. Looked at the menu, prices are absurd as well Ate here inenithwt time and the veggie Reuben sandwich was absolutely terrible and dry. Businesses have come and gone from. This location consistently for years. This spot will be the same if you don't stop sucking.

My guilty pleasure is definitely the sweet treats here--they truly have it all! Choosing what to…read moreorder is never easy, but this time I went with the classic almond croissant and decided to try something new with the passion fruit-filled croissant. Wow! The passion fruit filling was absolutely amazing--fruity, fresh, and bursting with flavor. The white chocolate topping was the perfect finishing touch and complemented it beautifully. I planned to eat only half and save the rest for later, but it was so good that I couldn't resist finishing the whole thing. I first visited during their soft opening in 2023 and have stopped by occasionally ever since. After this visit, though, I think it's officially become my go-to spot for all things delicious. Every visit feels like a treat, and I can't wait to come back for more!

The fritter is impeccable. Crispy on the outside but also soft on the inside. I don't think I can ever go back to an apple fritter. The chocolate old fashioned was perfection. The chocolate was really good. The twisted croissant was so flaky and delicious. I couldn't put it down. The honeydew shake was so flavorful and refreshing. All this while sitting and admiring the beautiful tree filled mountains and feeling tbe crisp mountain air. It's made my day start off wonderfully

Arguably the best donuts in the Santa Cruz mountains! They have a decent selection of donuts to…read morechoose from. The people that work here are nice and sometimes they throw in donut holes into your bag or box as an extra bonus! The ambiance is that of your regular neighborhood donut shop, nothing fancy. They have a large fridge in the lobby area that has lots of drinks to choose from as well as hot coffee. They have seating both inside and outside. My go to donuts are the chocolate old-fashioned, cinnamon twist, and buttermilk. They take both cash and card. If you decide to pay with card just know they charge a convenience fee. When I asked they said their busiest day of the week is Friday so keep that in mind.

This bakery came to my attention on Nextdoor. Out of curiosity I looked at the company website. I…read morethought the story of how the owners started the business was great and the bread looked delicious, so I decided to order some. I'm glad I did because everything was wonderful, and I could tell it was all fresh. The ube bread was my favorite out of everything. They have a very limited supply, but as they are a small operation working out of a home, it's completely understandable. I hope they will rotate their selection so I can try more!

A little too sweet. Not bad. * plain croissant: 4/5. Simple as it can be. * cheese danish twist: 4.5/5. The best one and flavor is all there and balanced. I ended up finishing everything on the spot. I also got the Tres Leches Coffee, easy 5/5. Service was pretty quick, and they try to get people served as quickly as possible.

Solid 5 stars for these two. Now, on to the pastries... I purchased a French baguette, an apple tart and chocolate chip cookies. The French baguette was flat, soft, and didn't have any flavor. There was no crust to it, no crackling. Nothing against plain white bread, but it was like plain white bread... when I wanted a baguette. Maybe it was an off day, but I would pass on the baguette. 1 star. The apple pear tart was pretty sweet. And the crust was dense without any layers. It was alright, but nothing special. 1 star. The chocolate chip cookies were the best part of my purchase. Although not a full rant, these were your basic chocolate chip cookie. Slightly better than what you would get in a package, but not the cookie you would come back to. 2 stars.

We ordered the pesto chicken sandwich that came on homemade focaccia with pesto, sun dried tomatoes, and provolone cheese. It was delicious! I should have gotten a side of ranch or mayo because it was a little dry but still incredible due to the quality of the ingredients. What sent this review into 5 star is the little park behind the store where you can eat your food and relax in the shade. We will definitely be back to try more options next time we are in town!

I've come to Whale City for years for the baked goods--which are outstanding! W got a zucchini…read moremuffin that was big, moist and covered with pepitos. So yum! This time we came for lunch. They got me at chilaquiles. So hard to pass them up on a menu. I was a little disappointed when I got my plate, however, mostly because the serving size of the star of the dish, the chilaquiles, seemed small for this dish. They come with a "side" of beans, which I expected to be in its own bowl, but they were not, and took up most of the plate. No big deal. And they were very good. As were the chilaquiles. Tart and not-to-spicy green sauce that covered the thick and crispy-soft tortilla chips. The eggs were perfectly cooked over-easy and I popped one right on top of the chips so the yolk would spill down. I was happy despite the size. W ordered the portabello sandwich, which comes with blue cheese. He expected it to be served on their home-baked bread, but it was served on a soft brioche bun (the menu is unclear on this point). He didn't like the sandwich at all. Said it tasted like it was basted in butter. Since he had only a couple of bites, I swapped with him so he'd have enough food. I thought the sandwich was good, but think the blue cheese was a bit strong. Maybe that's why he didn't like it. The side salad was nothing to write home about, and seemed like they used bottled balsamic vinaigrette. It had the thick texture from a bottle. Service was just ok. Barely got a smile out of our server. So, knocked a star off for that. And average meal, knocked another star. Ambiance is nice. If I were only reviewing the baked goods, five stars!
