I was a Gayles a very long time ago - and just saw the photos of the store/restaurant and cannot wait to hike over the hill and have. a decadent shopping spree! WOW! is the Crostini divine...and the Dip?! Amazing!“

“Yummy donuts the kids love this place“

“SOOOOOOO GOOD & FITS INTO MY FOOD ALLERGEN CONCERNS NO PROBLEM! My husband who doesn't have to skirt around gluten, dairy or eggs, ABSOLUTELY loved the treats!“

“Stopped in this mall tired in the evening on a long drive, desparately in need of a coffee. I happened to meet the owner Sherri as they were wrapping up for the day. She could have said no, we're closing, we're all out of coffee, but she made me the LAST cup of coffee in the entire mall at any restaurant inside, and dressed up with cream and sugar exactly how I asked. She gave me a free sample of her cookies while waiting, said it will be 2.95 for the coffee. I handed her my credit card and said PLEASE charge me extra for your fantastic service and hospitality, I don't have cash for the tip jar right now, at least charge 7 or 8 bucks if Starbucks wants that much!

...She refused to take any extra of my money above the $3. And that cookie was the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had in my life. Thank you so much Sherri! Your cookies, coffee, and hospitality and friendliness to a stranger are all world-class. I would come back every single day if I could.“

“Just received a cupcake from a friend. Just delicious. Can't wait to go buy some more. Yummy.“

“If I was being executed tomorrow, I would ask for these thumbprint cookies as my last meal.“

“Just about perfect. Bagels prepared traditionally and the quality is obvious. Coffee the top notch. Staff is friendly enough, potentially overworked but courteous. (I think that's fine, I don't need therapy, just give me the food.) The low prices really make this place dominate. Can't think of a complaint. Get a bag of day olds while you're there, supercheap.“

“Best breakfast and ambience 🥰“

“Secret's out, kids. Best tamales anywhere. Lots of meat vs masa. Grab some Mexican sour cream while you are there. We've been doing this nearly every trip for years. You won't be disappointed. Will run out on heavy tourist days, so get them 1PM or so.“

“We came in on a Sunday morning, and this place was very busy. The nice young guy behind the counter was patient and sweet to everybody even though he was working alone and getting slammed. The food was good and the coffee was hot. Props to that guy for holding it down!“

“I really like their German Farm Bread. However, the bread starts molding the next day after the Best Before date, so there are only 2-3 days to enjoy it.“

“My wife has loved Kelly's bakery forever. I decided to order her some crimpy for her birthday! The gentleman who worked there was very kind and helpful and their online service wasn't very clear and so he gave me my money back for one of the items.“

“Thank God for Aunt Nettie’s pies! I discovered them at Wild Roots in Felton… I need to find out where I can get my mitts on these pies apart from WRs because sometimes they’re sold out often.“

“As a vegan, finding a truly delicious birthday cake is tough to find. But Black China Bakery outdid themselves! My husband ordered the vegan raspberry chocolate cake for my 64th and it's the best I've had in a long time. Kaitlin outdid herself with the decorating as well. As a long time vegan cook and baker, I'm not sure how she manages such a delicious frosting, but it was divine. I wouldn't hesitate to order from Black China Bakery. They were kind, accommodating to my husband's requests and all around a business that deserves our support.“

“During our 2 night mini vacation in Monterey this week, Feb 2 & 3, 2023, we bought a package of these cookies from a liquor store, on Lighthouse Avenue and now consider them to be our all-time favorite cookie.“

“Exceeded expectations. The Americano was top notch. They use quality local beans and know what they are doing. The bagels are also quality, I got the sourdough and it was excellent with the perfect amount of cream cheese. Will definitely be returning!“

“some of the best bread I've ever tasted. The whole fam is hooked.“

“I found Rebecca's muffins at Campbell farmers market. They are so delicious and you can't really tell whether they are sugar free, soy free, gluten free and vegan. I have some health problem so I have to be on an anti inflammatory diet and I just look forward to every Sunday where I can go buy her muffins. God bless her!“

“Fantastic spot! Nice, open and clean kitchen. Mattias and staff are amazing to work with. Would highly recommend!“

“i love the vibe, coffee and employees. Had the Ray of F* Sunshine today but with cow milk. OMG sooooo great. ty“

“Stopped by Felton Donuts and grabbed a standard tea plus a bagel with cream cheese — it was loaded and absolutely amazing 👏 Perfect quick stop, and the service was fast and friendly. Great spot when you want something quick, tasty, and satisfying.“

“Outstanding food and service. Naomi is the best. All of the staff are great including the owner when they presented me with a special pancake to celebrate my birthday. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. Rose from Castro Valley.“

“Stopped into Companion Bakeshop Aptos and had a much-needed experience. The staff were friendly, and the barista who made my flat white did an amazing job — absolutely nailed the espresso pull. The coffee had rich notes of chocolate (my favorite), and the milk froth was smooth, silky, and perfectly balanced.

The pastries looked incredible — and it’s clear why this place is known for them. I wasn’t in the mood for one this time, but I’ll definitely be back to try them out. The space is quaint and inviting, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and I loved being able to watch the pastries being made in the back corner of the shop.

If I’m ever in Aptos again, this will be my go-to spot for a morning flat white.“

“Great manager now and great checkers ....Wendy“

“Toasted marshmallow topper 👍🏽“

“Haven’t had the desserts yet, but I loved the whole wheat and Lepain loaves. Nice that they will slice the loaves for you if you like!“

“I might recommend this place for its pies & pastries, but not their coffee offerings. I guess they don’t get many requests for mochas because what I got was mostly milk with a splash of coffee & zero chocolate. Getting it iced costs another 50¢, which I’ve never seen before. They really don’t promote their coffee beverages, so…. Hopefully your experience will be better.“

“Everyone loves cuteness.“

“Came to Ferrell's twice for breakfast sandwiches during a recent stay at the Four Points Sheraton just a 3 minute walk away. - It's a tiny little place that felt like a throwback to a bygone era. Simple, cute, clean, and charming. Had good service from the same nice gentleman both times I was there. If you're looking for some simple morning fare while staying nearby, I would definitely recommend you check out this Ferrell's location.“
