East Side Bake Shop - Super crunchy, barely sweet and so so tasty lemon, poppy seed scone!!! - Cafes Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

We were looking for a fun little shop while on vacation with our 5 year old. Positives: The place is small with lots of cute local artisanal items on one wall available for purchase. There was lemon water to drink which was nice. Not so positive: Everything we got was dry and honestly, not that good. The most moisture laden item was a raspberry crumble bar but it was surprisingly not very sweet and kinda off putting. The scone was dry, the shortbread was dry, the bottom of my daughter's cookie was burned. Like pretty black. Maybe it was supposed to be that way? My wife wanted an espresso but the lady behind the counter explained they only had drip coffee. Our daughter asked the same lady if there was a cupcake available, and she said "nope, what you see is what you get." Nothing wrong with what she answered but her tone seemed like she was really annoyed by the question. My wife just wanted to leave but felt like it would be rude to leave without buying things and we like to generally support local businesses. Side note: We ended up going to Schatts bakery a half mile away later that day and had a way better experience with far better tasting baked goods. We wish East side luck but we won't be back. read more

We stopped in to visit this place again and our recent trip to Mammoth. The service was friendly as usual. My husband decided to try the bread pudding. He's used to getting bread pudding up in Portland, where they put a sauce on it. When he got to our condo, he made a quick cream sauce for the top and it was very good. I also bought a loaf of their sourdough bread made with real sour dough starter. It might be one of the only places in town that have it. A nice loaf of bread. read more

Amazing bakery in Mammoth. Smells amazing right when you walk in. The homemade breads, muffins and cookies are all delish! The homemade banana bread slices are huge and will keep you going in the trails. GF and dairy free options available. read more

I've learned that I have a highly sensitive nose for great bakeries. It helps that I started baking in grade school. I needed a loaf of sourdough bread so that's what I found at Eastside, however I was thrilled to find an amazing egg salad sandwich AND my all time favorite, bread pudding. All were exceptional. I be back. read more

Love the lemon bar and cookies. Straight to the point small shop with baked goods, quick and friendly service.

My first time visiting this little bakeshop. Got a lemon raspberry muffin, espresso chocolate chip scone and a dairy free apple oat bar. The muffin was high and puffy but a bit dry towards the bottom. Ended up only really eating the top half. Scone and apple bar were both good and my friend was happy they had many gluten free items read more

Really great small business. The bakery is really good, but we also stopped in for lunch. It a small menu and everything is homemade and delicious. Love supporting local businesses like this! read more

Located right below the Mammoth Tavern. When you first walk in, you are welcomed with this fantastic smell that's just wafting through the air. It's the kind of smell that makes you want to buy every pastry in sight. But I opted for the Peach Almond bread pudding and the granola. The bread pudding was very dense and I didn't think it was that good to be honest. It lacked flavor. The granola was just ok. I was hoping it was something you could just grab a handful and munch on, but it feels more like a topping than anything else. Not sure what was in there, but it did leave a slight bitterness in my mouth. I don't know if I will come back here, though it smell incredible when you walk in, but the smell is not supported by the taste of the baked goods. read more

Nice people, wonderful baked goods. I wish they opened before 9. What bakery doesn't open until 9?

It was just okay. We expected more from the positive reviews but overall okay. They only have drip coffee.

Stopped by one morning to grab a quick pastry and was surprised at the variety of pasties they had. It was a very small shop but offered many goods. A lot of their pasties were just displayed out in the open. When I asked for a slice of their banana bread, one of the employees took the loaf to the back to cut me a slice. As I was waiting, I noticed that a fly land on one of the other pastries displayed. I still decided to go with my order and eat my banana bread though LOL. I didn't think they would give me the slice of banana bread from the same loaf that was sitting on display; I assumed that they would get it from the back or something. Other than that, the employees were very friendly and the banana bread was pretty good. read more

Stopped in today for the first time. Had a slice of apple blueberry pie and a cinnamon coffee cake. Both were delicious. We will definitely be back! read more

A cute hidden gem on the way to and out of Mammoth Lakes. Located at McGee Creek Lodge, it is a small bakery/cafe that has a small menu of breakfast items but plenty of baked goods. Wished I could have stayed for lunch since their simple lunch menu sounded good. Enjoyed the items we got and finished it all. I'm not a coffee connoisseur but iced almond latte was a little too sweet for me. I wish they had options for light sweetness but still good overall. The lady who took care of us was a one woman show and tried her best to take care of everything. She was sweet and very friendly. Overall, a good spot to grab a morning baked good and quiche/frittata on the go. I like where it is located now as it has its attractive and a appealing spot. read more

Someone complained about a fly landing on a pastry. Well it is the bugs u cannot see that will hurt u. Flies are annoying but a quick stopover flight won't spoil food. When the weather turns, like right now in Oct., the flies are gone & wont be back until summer. read more

LOVE this place! They are now located IN Mammoth Lakes. Service is always amazing, always helpful! Bright and welcoming. Cute place with some wares to buy besides the yummy food. The granola is my very favorite as is the blackberry crumble - YUM! read more

yum - gluten free selection too - fresh bread daily - soup is fresh and healthy. can eat treats inside. I like the cookies

Crusty substantial sourdough, good coffee, fruit pie, whole pie only, and a gooey bread pudding. All good. Outdoor eating is the parking lot, but it was quiet. read more

A hidden gem. The bread was delicious and the blueberry lemon scone was the best scone I've had - amazing!

The best bakery I've been to for quite some time. The shortbread cookies were to die for, the lemon square and the coconut square equally delicious. And to top it off the sourdough bread was moist inside and crispy outside. Perfection!! read more

Amazing baked goods. Super friendly service. When were are in the area we always make a point to stop in for something super yummy!!

Nice, cozy, warm place to hangout and have a cup of coffee and some delicious baked goodies. Tried the Blackberry Jam chocolate bundt cake and it was so yum! I wish she shared the recipe with me so I don't have to travel 300miles to have a slice of that delicious piece of cake :) read more

What a find!! We stayed at the McGee Creek Inn and were fortunate to be there when East Side Bake Shop was open. My son and I had a great breakfast to start the day! The lady who owns it was super nice which got the day started on the right foot. Someone asked her when she was going to open a store in Mammoth and she said hopefully one day! I am pulling for her to do so as she has something special with her shop! read more

Lovely little bakery in mammoth Lakes, California. Love the breads, quiches and treats!

East side bakery is the best!!! Best Pazkis enywhere in the Detroit area including Hamtramack

Hip hip hooray! So excited for the Mammoth Lakes location! Stocked up on sourdough and polenta sourdough! So happy to have a fresh bread option in town... thank you!!! The quiche was hearty and filling and the dark chocolate spice cookies made a great afternoon snack! read more

Amazing place with great baked goods and lunch items! Great mountain views. Relaxing place and good customer service!

A destination for me and a favorite place to sit outside and have lunch. Take home a loaf of slow fermented sourdough.

Don't bother stopping here! Stop in Bishop at Great Basin or Schats Bakery instead. East sides food is bland and boring, basic at best. Both the cookies and bars we got were painfully dry. Plus the coffee was lukewarm. All served by the owner who seemed miserable to even be there. Everything was served with a bitchy resting face. We will never be wasting our money here again. read more

My wife and I have been driving past this shop for a few years on our trips to Convict Lake. Each time we drive by it is past 2 pm or on days it is closed. We were driving back to Orange county on Friday and made a point to get there when the shop is open. this place is excellent. We had the spinach, mushroom frittata and the dark chocolate spice cookies. there were so many other good things we did not get to try. Elizabeth the owner is very nice and we had a brief talk with her. Highly recommend. read more

Wow!! This is a wonderful bakery "in the middle of nowhere" (which is usually *exactly* where I want to be)! I went on a Friends of the Inyo "Breakfast with a Botanist" program, where we met at the recently opened East Side Bake Shop in McGee Creek and then hiked up the ever stunning McGee Creek trail enjoying the wildflower display. I had wanted to try the new bakery since I read about it in the Mammoth Times, but hadn't had the excuse to get up that way - now I don't need one! If you are going hiking in the area, going fishing/boating on Crowley Lake, or just passing through on the way to Mammoth, the East Side Bake Shop is definitely worth a stop. The baked goods are fantastic, and they serve great locally roasted (Black Sheep) coffee. When I was there, I had an apricot-ginger scone, coffee, and got a slice of a delicious fritatta to take with me for lunch along with some cookies. They also had tasty looking quiche, exquisite fresh fruit (ripe red raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, and more), and various other delicious looking baked goods. I look forward to trying more of them!! I'm not sure of their hours right now, since they just opened - they may only be open on weekends? Check their Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/EastSideBakeShop) or Twitter (https://twitter.com/esidebakeshop) or call to see - they also put a sign out by the turn off when they are open, so that will help. It is just off of Highway 395, at the old McGee Creek restaurant, across from the little RV campground with the fish pond, so even if you turn off and they are closed, it's not far to detour for the chance of fabulous food in a beautiful setting! read more

Tried this out being a pastry and coffee connoisseur and was highly disappointed. It will cost you an arm and a leg to eat there and it's good don't get me wrong but not $8 a piece of quiche good. I mean come on they're just using cast iron skillets for the quiche which any novice baker with access to the internet can replicate. Do yourself a favor and just go on into Mammoth where you can get the same quality for half the price. They also got offended when I tried to kindly point out that they butchered the spelling of cappuccino on their coffee menu board. Overall, terrible experience and not worth getting off the 395. read more
