Their coffee is quite strong and solid. It's served in cute tubular cups with a little sticker sealing the sip opening. What a nice touch! I didn't try their pastries but they did look quite fresh! The cafe itself has ample room to sit and dine in.

The pastry case was a lot smaller than I expected, so the amount of sweet selections suffered. We did purchase the almond and chocolate croissants, and they were good, but I was hoping for glazed fruit atop custard tarts, eclairs or napoleons, but alas, there were none. The cappuccino was good and the French hot cocoa was ok, but not as memorable as Monmartre. Even the baguette was ok, but not as good as what you could purchase at any Lee's Sandwiches. Pricey and underwhelming...

The croissant has a deep golden crust ( slightly on the over-baked side ) with an open airy crumb and is clearly made with care. Not the best I've ever had but always satisfies my croissant cravings and absolutely worth the trip! I've also had the chicken sandwich which was okay but nothing that blew me away. I still have not managed to snag a breakfast sandwich in time but that is on me -- they sell out so fast so plan accordingly. The coffee is average for me but the vibe of this place more than makes up for it. It has a good energy, lots of light, an outdoor patio, and a lot of potential. Service is generally good. Would come back for the pastries alone!

First time the matcha wasn't my favorite but tried it a second time and added one of their homemade syrups and liked my matcha so much. I definitely was missing a sweetener the first time.

They have a small selection of pastries, cakes and Artisan breads. We chose to share a Butter Croissant, Cinnamon Sugar Coffee Cake and Apricot Sesame Seed Cooie. For our drinks -- Americano for me and an Iced Matcha Latte for my daughter. The baked items were wonderfully fresh and tasty. The croissant was the favorite -- so buttery, tender and flaky. I found the Americano too watery, but the daughter really liked the Matcha Latte. It's a cozy environment with comfortable seating inside and at the outdoor patio. The open kitchen concept is nice. Friendly people. Prices are very reasonable. Free parking in the small plaza.

The space is a little narrow but gorgeous, with lots of nice natural-feeling light and an open and airy feel. You can see into the bakery and there's a nice display with all the available pastries. Cute merchandise adorns a few racks and shelves (it took a lot of self control to not buy a sweatshirt!). The way the line works conflicts a little bit with the entrance but it moved quickly enough to not be a problem. We got a tahini brownie, an espresso chocolate chip cookie, and a coconut and orange scone. Of course, they also sell beautiful breads and some small meal options like paninis and granola bowls. It all looked delightful. Service was very pleasant and patient. The lady in line ahead of me wasn't being very kind to the workers and speaking to them in a very demanding tone, and they handled her with grace and professionalism. They were also working cohesively as a team to ensure quick service. All our treats were yummy. My surprise favorite was probably the coconut and orange scone. The glaze on top was sweet and pleasantly crackle-y and the flavors were balanced and paired perfectly together. The espresso cookie was also balanced and super yummy; espresso and chocolate go together for a reason! The tahini brownie was fun to try and wildly gooey/rich as promised by the addition of the tahini, almost too much so for my preferences. It is SO fudgy, lol. Definitely very pleased with the whole experience. Give them a try if you're nearby!

They feature authentic Hispanic baked goods at prices you won't find in many places. The special occasion cakes are a delight for the eyes! There are cases that line the perimeter of the store filled with pastries that are so visually appealing, it's almost a shame to eat them! Piñatas line the ceiling and makes for such a festive atmosphere. You'll find sweet breads, donuts, and pastries galore! When you enter, take a tray and set of tongs by the door. Then browse your way around the bakery and add your selections to the tray. When you're ready, the staff will ring and bag your order. Keep in mind that most of the placards on the bakery cases are in Spanish. So you might type Spanish to English in your cell phone browser to learn what the pastries you are interest in are in your own language. It helped me tremendously! I think my dining companion and I purchased 7 pastries and some other sweets, and the total was less than $15. I highly recommend this bakery for the most appealing visual and tasty treats you will find!

However, I will say that if you're not looking for it, you won't find it, so stay on the look out! This small Mexican bakery is most definitely popular among the locals and I just happened to pop by when I was driving in the area out of curiosity. I am so glad that I did. As soon as you walk in, you'll see a tray and tongs table to your left. It's self serve so you grab one and put whatever you would like to purchase on your tray. When I tell you there are hundreds of baked goods for you to try from, I'm really not joking. There's a variety of sweets lining up the store walls for you to choose from. There are even some hot pastries and cakes you can purchase from the counter. I was definitely overwhelmed by the choice and things aren't labeled, so I let my eyes do the picking. I randomly grabbed three of the prettiest deserts I could find. One was a cream and jam filled pastry, one was a cake, and one was a cookie. Each of them had such a unique and authentic flavor. After taking a bit of each one, I understood why this place was packed even late on a Sunday night. The best part is, when I paid for these three sweets, my total was less than $5. Amazing food for this deal?! Sign me up! I will be back very soon and buying more baked goods than I could ever imagine!
