We ordered a ginger scone and it was the best baked good I’ve had in years. Buttery, flaky, and complex in its flavors. Not too sweet - just perfection! Wish I had the recipe.

From out of town and was recommended to this place by a local! I had the B.L.T sandwich and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had, definitely recommend this spot if you're passing through.

The service was great. Unfortunately the food was disgusting. The meat tasted like the meat was rotten. The server apologies and brought a dessert that I could not eat after that horrendous piece of stake :(

Perfect spot to grab a sandwich before pretending you’re fancy at Hearst Castle or just trying not to get sand in your lunch at the beach. The staff is friendly and happy to customize your order, which means you can finally live out your dream of asking for “just a smidge less mayo” without judgment.

Bathrooms are located outside and require a key—because nothing says quaint bakery charm like walking across the parking lot holding a giant wooden paddle labeled “Restroom.” Speaking of parking, good luck. Consider it your warm-up exercise before carrying sandwiches uphill.

Overall, tasty sandwiches, friendly people, and just enough logistical quirks to keep things interesting.

Absolutely nothing gluten free. Not. One. Thing. Boooo. Because the sandwiches look good. And they offer them on all kinds of different bread. Just not gluten-free bread. Also not as salads without bread

The single best blueberry scone I have ever had. Everything else was really good too.

What a wonderful surprise! We love to trythe bakeries when we travel, so found this bakery traveling the coast. It is outstanding! I had an almond croissant that was amazing, subtle flavors, light and flaky. Tried two different scones, also great. Will be back! Highly recommended.

Absolutely horrible experience!!! Traveling with friends from France who were excited to see a “French” bakery in the US. Went in for coffee and pastries and my friend said in French “Good morning, we are from France, do you happen to speak French?” The young woman at the register was polite and said, “sorry, I don’t speak French,” but the barista making coffee went ballistic. He told her, “Speak to them in Spanish if they think this is a joke!!! See how much HE understands We don’t need people coming in here thinking they’re being all funny speaking French… Let’s hear your Spanish then!!!” Unbelievable. Trying to calm the guy down, my friend pointed to me and told him that I spoke Spanish but the barista continued to harass us in English. To make matters worse, regulars coming in after us were greeted by this guy IN SPANISH and he proceeded to talk about us IN SPANISH. Here’s the deal, if you market yourself as a F R E N C H bakery with a huge mural of P A R I S behind the cash register, you might attract F R E N C H speaking people. This guy was hostile and toxic and doesn’t deserve to work there. Hope the owner finds out as we have been referring people to Lynn’s Pies up the street. AVOID AT ALL COST!!!

This is not a French baguette, a knife struggles to pierce the hard outer shell. Maybe go to France and see what you should be calling French... so angry !!!!

Great stop for pastries and coffee in Cambria. Very tight restaurant, a few tables only inside and outside. But it’s busy!

The make barista made us FANTASTIC drinks and was very friendly.

Mixed review on the pastries:
1) Croissant: best one I’ve ever had, wow!
2) Cinnamon Roll: a bit dry, tasty for what it is but prefer less cooked.
3) Bran Muffin: cooked perfectly but a little heavy on the spices.

Would return for coffee and the butter croissant, perhaps try other pastries but maybe I’ll stick to the “French” specialties next time haha
