    A must must go to place for breakfast, brunch, pastries, sweets, or fun drinks and everything in between! We were staying at The Scott and walked here twice for an amazing brunch...while our room was getting cleaned...and the next morning for a pastry and drink. I had a breakfast sandwich with no cheese and my husband had a salmon and lox open bagel. Both were fresh and wonderful! The portions were huge and we did not finish either portion. The next day we tried a strawberry matcha drink and a homemade poptart. The homemade poptart was filled with strawberry glaze and strawberries and had a semi sweet chocolate layer on the top...must get!!!

    Prep & Pastry is back to its usual state of excellence! The biscuits and gravy are a REVELATION. I had never tasted duck fat in that particular iteration before ... and I am converted for life! Today featured rapid and pleasant service and a quick table. Let's hear it for The Random Weekday Solo Brunch esp. with the Blueberry/Bergamot cocktail

    Mangonada Mimosa
    Jodi C.

    Prep and Pastry was a 15 min walk from where my friend's house is in Old Town, so we stopped in on a Sunday morning for brunch. We got a total of 4 items, totaling to under $60: *Mangonada Mimosa *The Cure Mimosa *Chicken & Toast *Shaved Steak Sammie The mimosas were yummy, definitely juice forward, but I still enjoyed them both! My favorite was the Cure :) The food here is always portioned perfectly in my opinion! Not too much but it too little. I think it's perfect for the price point. Their fruits and veggies we got that day were fresh! And the food was great - the bread on both our plates were delicious! The service was quick and friendly, and they allowed us to request an outdoor table to enjoy the beautiful Scottsdale weather! They checked in often and didn't rush us out the door, which I appreciated! :) The restaurant (including their bathrooms which makes me want to give them an extra star! ) was clean, as well! Overall, it's a good, centrally located spot in Old Town for brunch!

    Prep and Pastry is a breakfast/brunch type place with coffee bar located in a more upscale and trendy area near Old Town Scottsdale. They have a separate coffee bar area off to the left side as you enter where you can grab a drink and/or pastry to go, although I saw plenty of people dining in when I visited. The interiors are tastefully done as is expected in this part of Scottsdale. As I wasn't looking for a meal, I had a white chocolate mocha latte and a sticky pecan cinnamon roll that caught my eye in the pastry display. The white chocolate mocha latte (4.5/5) was of high quality and tasted great without much bitterness, satisfying my caffeine fix. The sticky pecan cinnamon roll (5/5) was a high quality cinnamon roll with just the right amount of sweetness, accented just a little bit by the pecans for a wonderfully delicious pastry experience. Service was quick and friendly from the male barista there. While I can't speak to the dine-in food experience, I would recommend Prep and Pastry for decent pastries and caffeinated beverages in Scottsdale.

    This is our first time at this location. We had enjoyed the Tucson location years ago. Overall it was ok. The poblano Benedict lacked flavor even though there were poblano peppers in it. This place is light and bright so you can see all the dirt on the floors and the baseboards. I feel like they may need a deep cleaning. The highlight are their pastries. I would come again for coffee and a pastry but maybe not a meal.

    House Bloody w/ a side car
    Grant W.

    My new favorite thing is being able to walk to new restaurants to try. Prep had been in my list for a while. The wait was minimal and a bit noisy. My girlfriend and I shared an egg sausage and cheese Sammie on a croissant and the Smokes Salmon Hash bowl. The hash was really good with the house horseradish (very little kick but good flavor) veggies potatoes and eggs. Very little kick but good flavor. The roasted potatoes were huge and seasoned really good. The croissant to me wasn't that soft, the only downside. For drinks I got a black coffee and house Bloody Mary with a side car of the house beer I think the coffee stout, nice touch! The gf got the banana latte, not sure of the name but she liked it so much we got one to go! Oh and Prep seems to love their potatoes.

    Came to Prep & Pastry in Scottsdale for breakfast, coffee, and a pastry and really enjoyed it. The vibes were nice, relaxed but still lively, and the service was great. The food did not disappoint, especially the chocolate croissant, which was amazing, would recommend warming it up. Everything we tried was good and well done. Definitely a solid spot for breakfast. Would recommend walking around after and looking at the local shops.

    *Harissa Shakshuka
    Greeshma R.

    This place, located in a prime spot, always caught our eye but was closed whenever we were around. Finally, we decided to stop by for brunch. They don't take reservations but use a Yelp waitlist system, such a convenient touch! We went around 2 p.m. on a Sunday and were seated right away. The restaurant has a modern, well-lit, and warm ambiance. Service was quick and exceptional. I tried the pecan coffee, easily one of the best coffees I've had in a long time! For food, I went with the Harissa Shakshuka. Unfortunately, the sunny-side-up eggs were too runny, and the sauce leaned overly tangy for my taste. I wished I had picked something else. The classic French toast was decent, though I've had better. Overall, the food didn't quite hit the mark, but the coffee and service definitely did. Prices are reasonable, and the place has potential. For now, I'd rate it a 3.5 but rounding down to a 3.

    Chickpea Scramble  With A Vengeance
    Sherry W.

    A cute little cafe for brunch, drinks, and pastries. The chickpea scramble was good but could use a little more texture. I didn't realize the chickpeas are cooked into the eggs. I thought it would be roasted chickpeas on top of the scramble. The non alcoholic drink, With a Vengeance, was delicious.

    Queue up and order up

    Walked in to grab a coffee and a pastry. It was around 11:30am on a Sunday so the breakfast crowd had cleared out. The coffee bar is located just inside the door and doesn't require you actually seat in the restaurant. I grabbed a latte and a dossant. The latte was well made and smooth. The Salted Caramel Dossant was a combination of the doughnut and a croissant. It was really nice! One note, it was quite sweet. Pretty sure I could not have eaten the whole thing by myself. Service was fast and friendly. Ambiance is clean and modern. There were a host of other pastries from which to pick that all looked great. Didn't try an breakfast items so can't speak to those.. N*joy!

    Looking forward to trying this place

    Fantastic breakfast spot! Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The portions were generous, the coffee kept flowing, and the service was friendly and attentive. A perfect place to start the day--definitely a 5-star breakfast!

    Fresh pastries, coffees, smoothies and breakfast/brunch items. Food is always delicious!!! Restaurant has a cute vibe and always reminds me of a little European café, especially when you sit outside. Very attentive waitstaff and your food usually comes pretty quickly. Perfect corner location in Old Town between Nordstrom's at Fashion Square and the Canal.

    Eggs Benedict  Eggs were overcooked. Not enough ham and almost no hollandaise made it dry and lacking some luster.
    Jim M.

    Service was excellent ambience was really nice. Location is beautiful. The restaurant is clean. The food was lacking. They were trying too hard to focus on presentation instead of flavor

    Is this place kid friendly? Toddler?

    Yes

    Is this restaurant open on 4th of July 2022?

    Yes

    Do we need reservations for lunch?

    I don't think so. We were just there on Monday around noon (no reservation) and were seated immediately. There was plenty of open seats. Might be a different story on weekends.

    What are the parking options near this location?

    There is a ton of parking nearby. There is free street parking right in front of the stores you can usually find during the day and there are huge parking garages with free parking as well. You'll easily be able to find parking here - it's not a… 

    What's the atmosphere like? Looking for a place that's not too loud or packed

    The inside has very high ceilings, very open and airy. I was there at an off hour and sat outside, but cannot imagine that it would ever feel cramped, loud, etc.

    Are dogs allowed on the outside patio?

    Yes

    Do they do anything for birthdays?

    Not sure. I would give them a call. Likely not much right now due to Covid.

    Is there a bottomless mimosa special on the weekend?

    No, unfortunately not.

    Are dogs allowed on patio (if they have one)?

    Yes, dogs are allowed on the patio.

    Does this location have an event space or more private area for a larger party?

    I asked about having a holiday party in the evening and was told they would hold a party for 50 or more depending whether we could seat on the patio or just inside. Should be a great setting.

They're larger than they look in photos, perfectly balanced in flavor and not too greasy. You can tell they're made properly on the oversized hot crepe griddles, and it shows in the texture. Despite being in a tourist-heavy area, the café itself feels tucked away and surprisingly quiet inside. There's also outdoor seating if you prefer. The indoor tables have games on hand--like dominoes and Connect Four--which adds a relaxed, welcoming touch. (I won at dominoes!) Service was genuinely hospitable, and the whole experience felt thoughtful and unpretentious. Definitely a spot we took note of and will be back to.

I paid for egg to be added but barely tasted any egg in my crepe. Portion was okay but barely any goat cheese either. Overall flavor was muted. Sorry, I really wanted to love this. I wasn't able to connect to WiFi. When my food arrived I was directed to the condiment tray when I asked for salt and pepper. There was only one pair of shakers there for all to share. I would have appreciated packers extra shakers to move to tables. I did love the other seasoning options.
