Patisserie/Cake Shops near La Jolla, CA

“Fun flavors, friendly staff, and cute little shop. Cupcakes themselves are good but not amazing. The cake was a bit dry, and to some degree there is only a good cake or not good cake; hard to be blown away by anything there. The frosting/flavors add fun options and were where the cupcakes were good, making up for the deficit in the cakes themselves. Overall, it’s a fun shop, definitely worth a try or two!“

“Incredible and beautiful pastries and croissants! I love all croissants! They have many options and all made fresh. Annie and her families are kind and friendly. If you ask me for the recommendations when visiting San Diego, I would definitely say YOU MUST COME HERE!“

“The most adorable setting serving absolutely delicious food. Fast friendly servers are all smiles and so sweet. The coffee is incredible and if you like Unicorns, well, that's doable here too! Don't miss it. Loved our experience.“

“Best eggs benedict I've ever had. It's on a croissant instead of the classic dry English muffin. Homemade hollandaise sauce. Came with both perfectly crispy and seasoned potatoes and with a nice greens salad with a good vinaigrette. We beat the line but it was still a little backed up. Absolutely worth a wait. Shout out to Leon, Dove, Marques, and Manuel for working hard and being so polite during the rush.

Edit to add my husband's gingerbread apple French toast something or other was also to die for. Like, dang. Perfect balance of sweet and salty. Perfectly cooked. Could taste butter. Just phenomenal.“

“Outstanding Service. Good food Nice location“

“Tastylife™️. Would buy treats again.“

“Le Parfait Paris is located within Sky Deck in Del Mar Highlands. As soon as you go up the escalators and through the door, you'll see the signage for this spot. There's an abundance of tables and some couches available to sit on inside. As well as seating outside. The ceilings are high and there's ample sunlight shining through.

There was only one worker the day I went and he was attending another customer. He was really nice and friendly. I noticed that he kept referencing little placecards (to ensure he's making things correctly). Must be new, too bad there wasn't another worker there to help him out and give him some pointers. I had an Iced Honey Lavender Latte here, for about $6.50. He asked me if whole milk was okay and if I wanted it on the sweeter side or more espresso forward. I asked for a balance of the two, as that's the norm when it comes to specialty drinks, or at least in my opinion. As kind as he was, the finishing product of the drink was very lackluster. The drink was watered down and when I got near the end there was a thick gloop of liquid honey (that didn't get mixed into the espresso). I originally thought he just mistakenly grabbed two plastic cups, but it was because he accidentally spilled a large amount of honey down the side of the cup.

I've been to several other locations of Le Parfait Paris and enjoyed my food/drinks (croissant sandwich, macarons, cappucino). This was just an unfortunate timing, but I am sure that the next time I visit-- it will be a better experience.

Parking: Parking shares the space with other businesses in Del Mar Highlands, but it is easy to find spots.“

“We have purchased many cakes and pastries from this location and all very tasty. We have purchased our birthday cakes for our son and ourselves multiple times here.So many fresh tasty treats there and beverages too! There is also a option to sit inside if you don't enjoy the main eating lobby. I hope that they finds a new home in the new Zion market as Zion is looking to move around May 2024 or so.I love the convenience of shopping at both places in one trip. We'll see I suppose. Till then...

Parking: Open parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: All one level.“

“Cafe Côte D'Azur is not just fabulous and not just absolutely delicious, it's also fun and alive and you feel the very French style that started the whole thing! Vive la France and long live the Cafe Côte D'Azur!! Thank you for making such a wonder in our San Diego town!!“

“6 stars for the croissant dough- buttery, flakey awesomeness! I also love that the pastries are not as sticky sweet. I'm Swiss and its the closest I found in Northpark to the french pastries I know from home. Everything I tried so far tasted very fresh & they seem to use high quality ingredients. The catch: there is very little filling, often concentrated in one small spot. While I don't mind that in the sweet versions as much I was disappointed with the savory... for 6$ there was only a tiny piece of ham & the cheese had either mostly leaked out during baking or there just wasnt as much to begin with.

Staff is always friendly & the place very airy and clean. Quite polished modern decor which feels a bit cold/sterile to me, could use a bit more color & warmth to feel more inviting.“

“This is such a cute cafe! The staff is amazing and so is their service. I had the luxe latte and it was made with mocha and brown butter- delicious!! My friend had a chai latte and her drink was really smooth too. There’s plenty of seating outside, and free wifi. I will definitely come to work here more often. A true hidden gem!

Parking: They validate parking upto 3 hours!“

“Extraordinary Desserts indeed! Love this place and their people 🥰“

“Pleasant people, very accommodating,the place is clean“

“I ordered a pack of Spanish Bread and a spicy chicken empanada, and they were delicious! The only thing I would change would be the amount of filling in the Spanish bread, but everything else was great. The staff were nice and packed everything up nicely. I’ll definitely be back.

Parking: It’s mixed with the whole plaza, so the parking is almost busy all the time.

Kid-friendliness: There are brownies and cakes.“

“My daughter brought me a banana vegan cake 🍰 And it was amazing ❤️❤️❤️“

“Sooo gooooood. We normally get the pastries and the Thai but the chocolate cups are sooo gooood.“

“Literally the BEST latte I’ve ever had. I’ve had a lot of coffee, but this one tasted like I was sipping the freshest coffee beans ever. Smooth, no bitterness. Just absolutely delicious. Their mini lemon tarts were absolutely delicious as well. That’s all I went in for, it was my first time there, The coffee and tart were so good. It prompted me to leave a review. Worth a stop“

“very small place and crowded and people lined up all the way outside.“
