The ambience is simple, clean, and a decent sized place. House music. One unisex restroom. Artisanal baked goods, sandwiches, salads, soups, pizza, etc. I got the Ube Matcha Latte (3/5). It was good to try but I'd skip next time. We arrived pretty late so the selection of bakery items was limited. We'll be back to try their other things next time. Support your local business.

What makes them even more special is the Filipino-French influence woven throughout their creations. The flavors feel both familiar and unexpected, bringing a unique twist to classic pastries that you won't find just anywhere. Perfect for special occasions or simply when you want to treat yourself!

I was really excited to try the beautiful fruit desserts from Tarts de Feybesse, especially with…read morethe great reviews and packed shop. However, the dessert really fell short of expectations. It might just be because I've had a lot better, very similar, fruit shaped desserts, but the chocolate shell was quite thick, the mousse and cake were a bit too sweet, and the filling overall dessert was just a bit lacking in my opinion. On top of that, the dessert I got (pistachio) was $14, which is a pretty steep price. I wouldn't mind paying that if it were really delicious, but unfortunately I was struggling to finish. The store employees were very friendly, but unfortunately I just did not enjoy the food. If you've got a sweeter palate, you might enjoy this spot, but it's not for me.

Went here on a tour with Kaiser docs. Great behind the scenes view of their bakery. Huge fan of…read moretheir kalamata loaf and cinnamon twist bread now.

Even though there is no actual bakery on-site, we were given samples to take home. Love LOVE their cinnamon twists, sourdough, and almond croissants if you get a chance to try out at local distributors, i.e. Trader Joe's. Looking forward to go to their actual café in Kensington CA. I'm happy to hear most ingredients are locally sourced from the Bay Area. And as I've heard how the business give back to the community, Ill be on the look out for their merchandise at the stores from now on.

Stopped by Doodlecakes spontaneously for a sweet treat. I was in the area picking up some…read moresandwiches and noticed Doodlecakes after parking nearby. The shop is cute and cozy with a nice display of cupcakes available and prices. I opted to purchase 4 cupcakes to share and had asked the staff member for recommendations on flavors. Customer service was excellent, friendly and efficient. I will say the cupcakes are a bit pricey ($4.99 each) but the quality and taste are great. It's also wonderful that they have gluten free and vegan cupcakes available too. I enjoyed the cookie butter and cookies n' cream flavors, the cupcakes weren't overly sweet and had a nice texture and the icing was good too. I was curious about trying the pandan and strawberry crunch flavors, and will need to return for more cupcakes! Overall, a solid spot for delicious cupcakes! Definitely recommend!

I'm usually very particular about matcha since I've perfected my own recipe to suit my personal…read moretaste, but I have to say I really enjoyed their Earl Grey Matcha from the seasonal menu. It wasn't overly sweet and still maintained that earthy matcha flavor that many places tend to lose when they jump on the matcha trend. My husband ordered the Vanilla Bean Caramel Latte, also from the seasonal menu, and loved it so much that he said this is now his favorite coffee spot. Safe to say, whenever we're back in town, we'll definitely be returning!

They let you sample flavors before committing. I got the single cup so I could get two flavors. I wound up getting the dan tat and the pandan. The dan tat is what they're known for. Genius, everyone likes dan tat and everyone likes ice cream! Everyone working there was friendly and efficient. It was Christmas when I went, so there was a tree. Not much seating, but you can take your ice cream on a walk around the block.

Am I the only one who thinks the ice cream here tastes too sweet and artificial?…read more I did try their Milo chocolate and felt it was way too sugary for the chocolate. Pancakes with blueberry had this weird artificial vanilla flavor. They were out of mango sticky rice. I got the pandan coconut which had all this food coloring and was way too sweet. I bought it because I wanted to support this small business, but I didn't eat all of it and ended up throwing most of it away. The staff here was patient and nice and that's why I'm giving this place 3 stars.
