“HERCULES is a great place to live crime rate is low compared to other cities . But it would help a lot to encourage neighborhood watch “ MODESTY ASIDE I DO . I have knocked to several houses esp when I was still working swing shift I kept my eyes open n still doing it if garages are open when I go hone from work n 1 time called the police station when 1 of the neighbor’s garage was opened n no one answered when I knocked her door . Let’s have a neighborhood watch all over “ HERCULES THIS IS OUR HOME AND WE HAVE PROTECT IT AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE WHO LIVES HERE . OUR CITY OFFICIALS SHOULD BE TOUGH LIKE ( MANILA PHILIPPINES ) MAYOR FRANCISCO DOMOGOSO HE MADE N MAKING MANILA A NICE PLACE TO LIVE IN . MANILA IS HOW MANY TIMES BIGGER THAN HERCULES !! HE WAS JUST A MAYOR FOR 7 MOS BUT MADE A LOT OF CHANGES NO WONDER PEOPLE LOVE HIM SO MUCH NOT ONLY IN MANILA BUT ALL OVER THE WORLD .“

“What a cute place! I really loved the strawberry cupcake and the Biscoff cupcake. Not overly sweet, the whipped cream is buttery. Just so yummy. Also, a very clean and welcoming place with the decor and board games available. Happy that a place like this is in Hercules.“

“Absolutely the best French pasteries I’ve had on this continent!“

“The olive bread was amazing, as well as the croissants and other pastries. The service was off the charts, truly exceptional! Highly recommended.“

“Great, consistent crumbl quality/yummy, buttery cookies. The staff say hey and answered questions when I asked but were slow to explain that I needed to order on their electronic kiosk. Cookie quality made up for it all though ?

Parking: It’s in a big parking lot with Safeway and many other eateries and small retail shops.“

“Adorable! Old school, great baked breads, good pastries🥐🥖 The morning bun flavor was amazing, but it was dense and too hard-chewy. No way I was going to get a plastic knife through it to cut in half in my car… I’ll definitely be steaming and then crisping it at home to make it as enjoyable as it should be😊
The chocolate croissant🥐 was good, but it was all soft…Had to also crisp that in the toaster oven at home. Plus the dark chocolate was a little overly sweet compared to most higher level chocolate croissants.
Staff is suuuper friendly, clearly regulars come and love this place for good reason… It’s charming and very worth coming to 👏“

“Ok ok ok Ok Ok Ok Ok Ok Ok“

“Just picked up my chicken soup this afternoon,my granddaughter wanted to go to the park,I ordered it over the phone and they said 10 minutes but we stayed at the park for. 45 minutes the soup and croissant was still hot not warm but hot my granddaughter loved the bread man lol“

“I bought their bread at Wholefoods market. OMG! Their doughs are soooooo delicious 😭😭😭Specially live the olive sour dough, soooo good😣Therefore, I searched for this brand and have to visit someday and leave a 5star comment here😂😂😂“

“LOVE this bakery!!! Gayle and Pamela are so kind and accommodating. We asked them to make our wedding cake in their signature chocolate raspberry flavor (and to keep the natural pink frosting!). Everyone absolutely loved the cake, it couldn’t have been more perfect. They were very responsive and made sure everything was perfect for us. Their flavors are always so fresh and never fake-tasting. If I could afford it, I would go here everyday :)“

“😍Once I week I allow my self the indulgence of one of their amazing cookies. It's my cookie Friday treat. Soooooo good. Ya gotta try it!“

“Friendly staff🥰, best bagel in the states🥯“

“Are you kidding me??? These are the BEST cupcakes I've ever had!!! The key lime pie.... heaven!!!! And the Smore's, oh my goodness, amazing!!!! 5 🌟 for sure!“

“Wow, I wish I bought more. The classic pretzel is really great (and authentic according to German companion). We also liked the tiny premade sandwich on a pretzel roll. Once you’ve had these real pretzels, It’s sad to think of all the terrible pretzels sold at events and movie theaters across the USA ;)“

“My favorite coffee and pastry shop! The hot chai latte with oat milk is my go-to. It’s always so good. They have the best scones, bagels, and cookies, seriously everything hits the spot. Everyone who works here is super nice and always makes me smile. LOVE stopping by not just for the great drinks and pastries, but for the warm, friendly vibe every time I visit.“

“So I went to 7-eleven in Vallejo the other day and came across a variety of great looking cakes that were individually packaged for about $5 I believe and something told me to try one. I am so glad I did!! I have found my future cake maker. I can’t tell you how delicious Cassandra’s cakes were I still can’t believe just how good they are and I’m so happy I walked into 7-eleven that day lol. I love that they somehow are distributed out here. It was very fresh and I even saved a piece for the next day and it tasted freshly made. 10/10 recommend!!“

“handmade pizza with flare“

“I love this local donut shop... They are very nice and they move very quickly. The thing I really like is that they go out their way to make sure they keep my favorite donuts when I go there try to keep a few extra every day just in case I come in now that's customer service.“

“This place is great!
We got a 3 leches cake and was delicious. And they decorated very nicely too (for a baby shower) I did added the baby bear though (to make it look extra.) but all my guests had doubles and told me how delicious the cake was. I would really recommend them.

They were clear about any extra charges etc. so nice they told me about it before agreeing to anything.

One thing I didn’t like was that I had previously gotten a cake from them and the price has gone up (from 2 months apart.) and when I asked why they didn’t answer my question!

I understand prices for everything is going up, so it makes sense. But it would be nice to know in advance they’ll increase prices.“

“The most beautiful and delicious cakes ever!! I especially love be the chocolate truffle cake.“

“Everything was wonderful. I had the cheese and loroco pupusa and a fried squash dish whose name I can’t remember. It was recommended by my Salvadoran nephew. He also loved everything. Others took home pastries for later.“

“The best, Best, B-E-S-T (!!!) quiche, in the world. Ever, even... Thank you, Starter Bakers!“

“love love love! The cupcakes are awesome. They were perfect for my birthday.“

“Nostalgia, for me. Forty years ago, when I moved here, I lived around the corner. Loved the food and coffee (Peet's) and the buzzy atmosphere. So Berkeley. When I'm back in the neighborhood, I try to stop by for a good meal. Even after 30 years my son gets over the moon excited when I bring him a cheese puff. Also dropped off their out of this world pie to a family member battling cancer recovery. Everyone gets excited about their baked goods; however their meals are dang good too. Friendly staff as well. For some joy, go there!“

“Tony created an unforgettable moment in time for my entire family with the Loki Gator birthday cake that he custom made for my sister-in-law. Tony is professional with his beautiful website, clear communication, and makes you feel like family in his warm hospitality. This was the first cake I ever had made by Tony, and it exceeded my expectations. The cake tastes as good as it looks. Upon tasting my first bite I was immediately transported back in time to my childhood remembering the rich unique textures and flavors of a cake from long ago. The entire process of ordering the cake, submitting payment, and picking up the finished product went so smoothly. I simply sent Tony a picture of what I wanted, which was a random image my brother had text to me of a Loki Gator. Tony made fantasy a reality. Tony's Cakes has become our household standard. I will be returning for more "GLORIOUS" cakes as Loki would say! ***Anybody leaving negative reviews about Tony's Cakes probably didn't want to pay, failed to follow the clear instructions on the website contract, or is looking for someone to blame for their errors. Tony did everything his website and contract said he would do. When I arrived at the store all the staff made sure all of my needs were met while I was there, and Tony helped me figure out my Zelle payment, even more he helped us get the cake in the car all by himself. He really didn't have to do any of those things but he did. My only regret is that I should have thanked him more than I did in person, because I was distracted with getting the cake home safe. Dreams do come true at Tony's Cakes! If he did it for my family he can do it for yours too!“

“A perfect batch of 60 (señorita breads) were ready in less than 6 minutes and they were blazing hot and were the hit of the party. I thought I left something and called and they walked all the way out to the parking lot for me, to no avail, but so nice. Anyway I found my keys.“

“The best homemade bread and pastries.“

“Simurg Bakery provides great baklava to the ones missing a professional taste in USA. Go for it!“

“I recently tried empanadas for the first time from this bakeshop, and I also purchased their Mango Nirvana cake. The cake was absolutely perfect, and the empanadas were delicious. The bakeshop has a spacious sitting area, and the staff provided quick and efficient service.“

“This is a newer bakery in the area. It has a small parking lot. The inside has always been clean and the bread always looks and tastes fresh in addition to very neatly presented. My parents like it as well. The service has always been delivered with a smile. As far as the foods, I've only tried the tamales and they were good. The pudin is my favorite bakery item. 😋“

“I’ve had their cakes and cupcakes… Super delicious! I would recommend this bakery to anyone ❤️“

“My fiancee and I love Diane's banana bread. With a soft and fluffy texture, it has the perfect sweetness to banana ratio. The cinnamon crumble ontop, certainly added an extra tasty surprise. She is sooo nice too!!! We will be back for more!!“

“We are loyal customers. Cakes for every family celebration including a wedding in 2018. The quality, consistency and delicious selection can’t be beat. Thank you and keep up the great baking“

“Maggiora sourdough french bread is like what french bread tasted like from the great Bakery on 59 th st & Canning in Oakland in the 50's & 60's. I lived around the corner from there & after that bakery moved they later lost their starter & Maggiora became the great bakery.“

“Gran Milan is THE place to get the most delicious foods on the planet!!! I recently ordered mini sfogliatelles, cannolis, (3) meter long pizzas n wonder focaccia bread to make sandwiches and their famous olive bread sticks!!! Thanks for the beautiful foods and service!!! I highly recommend Rufo’s place for your next catering! I haven’t seen sfogliatelles outside of NY!!! Love this place!!“

“This San Francisco neighborhood spot makes amazing cakes! I can’t wait for our next cake order for an upcoming party! I’ll post pics afterwards :) They always turn out stunning.“

“I tried my first muffin today and it was love at first bite� This is exactly what I need to curb my sweet tooth!“

“Everything! (I’m serious)!“

“My wife and I stumbled into Drift for the first time last Sunday while spending the weekend in Wilmington for a comedy show I did. Absolute great coffee and a fantastic brunch. Bought a bag of beans for home, and the coffee I’ve had the last two days is out of this world. The coffee is rich and flavorful. I can’t wait to get back to Wilmington so I can go to Drift. Java Junkie approved! Thanks, Beau Johnson Java Junkie Comedy @bjohnsoncomedy“

“Ordered food to be delivered. Although they were out of apple pie they made sure to call and ask if I’d like berry instead (very delicious.) The bread for the French dip was a little small for the amount of meat on the sandwich, didn’t take away from the quality of the meal.“

“Delicious selection of cakes and breads that made it tough going selecting just a few. In the end we settled on the lemon meringue tart, apple crumble slice and a baked cheesecake. All were delicious. We also grabbed a cold sausage roll for heating later on and it was a monster. I have reviewed Almost French Bakery before but it’s missing off Zomato.“

“The Filipino deserts app has mold. Brought these to a party and thank God it was discovered by my guests at the party. Called to get a refund and below me off as a joke. Mind you my wife and I live one hour away and demanded that we bring back the product that was purchased back to them to inspect. I have been purchasing deserts from them for over 35 years and spend a lot of money. So sad and no accountability and glad no one got sick. I will be letting the San Bernardino health dept know of this crooked establishment not following State and court health codes.“

“Kelby Chao loves it. Enough Said. And now they deliver to my door step!! Win!!!“

“Just had our first cake. It was so good I can't wait to try more!“
