Super excited because the mini fruit tarts are going to look amazing on my newly purchased dessert tray! I was feeling a bit sleepy so I decided to fuel up & eat breakfast while I was there. I ordered a Vanilla Latte & a side order of 3 eggs + Sausage Links. If you're a big eater and want the additional potatoes and pancakes, I recommend paying a few dollars more and ordering the Breakfast platter. The Vanilla Latte came in a paper cup (a bit bummed out by not being able to take a more IG worthy picture of that), but it actually tasted really good! Same with the sausage links - it was probably one of the best tasting ones I've had for breakfast in a while. Aside from their wide selection of pastries and food options, their customer service was phenomenal. Every customer that walked through the door was greeted upon arrival and thanked on their way out. The restaurant was very clean and the cakes looked so beautiful behind the glass case. I had a pleasant experience today at Merengue Bakery & Cafe and can't wait to come back soon to try a slice of their chocolate cake!

Make sure to save room for desserts like chocoflan, too! Kiara was my server and she is very courteous and very knowledgeable. The staff is super friendly, and the service is fast. It is the perfect spot for a quick coffee and sweet treats!

While I was there, I also grabbed a slice of their vegan chocolate brownie just to try it out. I was so surprised because it did not taste like it was vegan at all. It was super rich and tasted just like a traditional brownie. On top of the great food, the service was fantastic. I went in on Saturday morning around 11:00 AM, and the male cashier working the counter was very friendly. He provided great customer service, which really made the whole experience even better. It was not my first time at PB (I even went to a couple in Seoul) and it certainly will not be my last.

It is near the movie theater and other shops and restaurants. On this visit, I could not resist the Rainbow cake, I love the layers and multiple flavors all in one slice. Each bite is so flavorful til the final crumb! I also bought a Smores cake slice (just looking at it makes me drool), Cream Puffs (Chocolate covered four-pack is made for sharing), Chicken Salad, and a Fruit bowl to go. I was set for the remainder of the week. If you are looking for quality pastries, cake or sandwiches, you can bookmark this page. I will return to buy a birthday cake that caught my eye for a special friend. I didn't buy drinks this time, but coffee, tea and juices are available.

I chose the red bean one thinking it was part of the deal since there weren't any signs indicating it was excluded. The worker told me I had to pick something else because the red bean ones don't count. I was really confused but did as she asked. I was just trying to say that the sign was misleading and she didn't know what to say. After that she didn't want to deal with me anymore and got her coworker to ring me up instead, who rolled her eyes at the original checker (or maybe at me, who knows) but took over. I thought ok maybe she thought I had a complaint or needed more help and this other worker is the appropriate person to escalate to, but this other worker didn't acknowledge what just happened and continued ringing me up. She plopped the pastries into each box without checking I wanted them split a certain way (I had 2 boxes). OK yeah I could've said something when I noticed and I didn't. She was kind of just willy nilly handling the pastries and boxes without being gentle. I was already upset but seeing that pushed me to give them 1 star. That kind of behavior is what my parents would've whooped me for because her attitude was clearly showing. It was 100% my fault for not paying better attention to the sign as the red bean ones were in fact not pictured, but the original checker's response was appalling to me. Not even as a consumer but as someone who works and oversees a team in customer service. And then the other girl just throwing the moon cakes (not actually throwing but I can't think of a better word) - I was so irked. Tbf it was hot asf inside so I can't blame them entirely for not having the patience to be friendlier. There's no AC inside the store. I'll never come to this location again. I already regret going through with my purchase.
