    Breakfast sandwich, including a crispy on-sandwich hashbrown. Great flavor, even though it looks a bit plain.
    Megan W.

    Tried the breakfast burrito, breakfast sandwich, Blueberry Coffee Cake, and lemon poppy muffin. Delicious and sweet chai latte. Highly recommend this bakery for made-to-order food and delicious treats. it took a while for our food to arrive, but it was made with high quality ingredients and care, so it was worth the wait. They have seating for maybe 8 tables, and it's a little cramped with a small town vibe. We were content to eat in but this is definitely a good take-out spot as well.

    Very small areas to sit

    What a cute shop, super clean and nicely maintained and the location is super nice, the food is ok but that's the only good things I can say about this shop. The staff is ok but not the nicest, they got my order wrong and I don't feel like they were too pleased with my correcting it. The shop is very small so no room for a large group but it's a quaint shop. I'm sorry but I'll never go there again as the prices were not good and portions were not good as well.

    Breakfast Burrito and Lavender Fog coffee.
    Kathi A.

    Wonderful food and pastries and the best Lavender Fog coffee I've ever had!! Forgive the bite out of the burrito and as simple as it looks every bite of food here is homemade. I am beyond impressed, the owner even mills her own flour. i will definitely make this a regular stop.

    Loaded buttermilk breakfast bisquit.

    The perfect crumb bakery just moved to Pacific Grove from their long standing spot in Monterey and locals and visitors alike are thrilled. Baked daily offerings include croissants, muffins, cakes cookies and more. The coffee choices are just as delicious and abundant. But our favorite is the morning breakfast sandwich, a fresh made buttermilk biscuit loaded to the brim with eggs, bacon, cheese and hash browns. It will hold you til supper! Don't miss this new local gem.

    Stopped by today and enjoyed a ginger molasses cookie and a cappuccino. Delicious!

    Service was fast, cookie was delicious. Happy to see another local spot open up. I will be stopping by again.

    I got a few cupcakes to celebrate my son's birthday. The inside of the store is beautiful. The owner was there and she was very nice and was vey informative about her pastries! There was a small area to snack in, but I was in a little rush. I'm not certain if there is a restroom. As for the cupcakes... I got 3 different cupcakes. I got a strawberry, chocolate & vanilla. The strawberry & vanilla cupcakes unfortunately were not the greatest. The worst part of biting into a cupcake is getting that cornbread muffin texture inside. The strawberry & vanilla cupcakes tasted that way. The frosting was excellent. The chocolate cupcake was good. Would I go back? Yes, to try some other dishes. Price: $15

    What a lovely little bakery! The ladies were both welcoming and showed me by their actions how they were happy to help. I felt comfortable enough to buy a bunch of goodies without realizing how much I actually bought. I must have left this establishment with half of the bakery! My husband had his hands full of bags and a box filled with cupcakes and pastries. I look forward to sharing what I bought with my family at home. So far my husband and I ate their brownies, red velvet cupcake and a almond croissant. Let me tell you, the baked goods were DELICIOUS! I know I'll be enjoying the rest of the goodies this evening. Thank you for a wonderful time. I appreciate your help and kindness. I will definitely stop the next time we are back in Monterey.

First of all, this is a historic bakery in a landmark building in downtown Monterey. As I approached, there was a short line on a Friday around 11 am. After a short wait, I reached the counter and scanned the pastry selection before picking several, asking the kind lady to pack them in two boxes and I brought a couple items back for a friend. After my purchase, I walked to the back area and noticed an outdoor dining area (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=ykERHL4g-pQklkgNQ0Vrsg) besides the counter area (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=-ieBhqZ5feBuptEl0S_sNw) and a small dining room inside (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=TD9doolFBh0oHc9lES_1eQ) (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=95x2W27l2Ab0PGph3FmdhQ). With meals scheduled for the rest of the day, I didn't start on anything until the next morning with the donut (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=0MJJ8kT57A1DTm3XZQFJXQ) for breakfast. It was interesting with the colorful topping; I did not ask the flavor but guessing it was raspberry. It was okay as I like my donuts a little less cakey. The next item that I tried was the blondie (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=XJNQw54ud1nxci3EZF5DXw); I really enjoyed this for dessert a few days later at home. It's been awhile so I really enjoyed this as there was plenty of chocolate pieces to contrast with the dough flavor. Next, I tried the carrot cake cookie (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=96&select=WYgw9_utf096q83PjynR8g) which I enjoyed as it wasn't overly rich. I was only okay with the almond financier (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=48&select=rC2OVgro1o-vIE2rVCNqtg) as the flavors sounded more interesting than they were. I enjoyed the chocolate buckwheat cookie (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=48&select=P6gb3w4hu0CRRQBOPc46jQ) which was very chocolatey. The line was about six deep when I arrived but it moved quickly. The order taker and cashier are efficient. There is coffee and other beverages available as well as meal items and wine and beer after 11 am (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=144&select=6Utt7H0U46KbXamwZoiwrQ). I will return and perhaps have lunch here on another visit. Nice to see more historic places especially for a bakery aptly named.

Plentiful sweet and savory baked goodies, coffee and tea options are available. Ended up selecting the ham and cheese croissant, a cinnamon pull apart muffin and a matcha tea with vanilla syrup (other syrups are also available). Ordered a medium matcha but it is totally a small sized one by my measure. Really like the cinnamon muffin and the ham and cheese croissant wasn't bad either. Don't forget the gooey yummy section at the bottom of the cinnamon muffin !!! Would recommend sitting in the nice courtyard tucked away in the back of the bakery. The Cella Restaurant Bar is also located in the courtyard also and I'm sure this would be a cool romantic spot to chill in the evenings. This appears to be a shared space with the bakery, restaurant and the Cooer smokers Adobe Flower Bouquet Bar/Museum. I was seated next to a small garden where lemon thyme, calendula, artichoke and other herbs and vegetables were planted. Would also suggest taking a stroll through the courtyard and take it all in.... Such a nice area to have a private party or event !

Just the right amount of char and flavor! Butter Brickle Malt Milkshake: Pretty solid! Thick creamy milkshake. Tasted like what Butterbeer would taste like. Roadsides hot dog: This hotdog was pretty sweet with the bbq sauce and sauteed onions. The dog is wrapped in bacon and topped with mac n cheese. It's a little hard to eat such a stacked hotdog but that's really not a complaint. Why complain when you get more of a tasty meal? I do wish I could order a pickle or something sour that I could use to contrast the hot dog in between bites. Overall, the food menu looks really interesting, the food is delicious and I'd love to continue to explore the menu the next time I visit. The service is friendly and the food comes out relatively fast! Ambiance wise, it's a pretty laid back beach skater vibe with lots of decorations to look at!
