10 Best Bakeries in San Clemente

“Excellent bakery with indoor and outdoor seating, quieshe(spl?) Lorraine was excellent as was the pecan sticky bun, both came warmed and fresh. Really good. Would love to head back. They greeted me as soon as I walked in, had my order ready by the time I actually placed and paid for it at the counter and brought it out almost immediately.“

“Tracy and her team have exceeded my expectations both times I've ordered custom cakes. Not only do they look amazing they taste amazing too!“

“This place is amazing. Could possibly be the best cookie I've ever had, and it was just the chocolate chip. Beyond that the staff is absolutely amazing. So kind, so sweet and just the epitome of what customer service should be. I would give more stars if it were possible. THANK YOU MARRIN, SOFIA AND SARAH, you three made my day.🩷“

“This was my first time coming into this coffee shop, the barista recommended the spiced chai tea. My drink came out perfect, they have a wide selection of drinks to choose from as well as food options! I’ll definitely have to come back and try more items from the menu. Very welcoming atmosphere and friendly customer service highly recommend giving this place a visit!“

“By far the most welcoming staff out of any restaurant I have gone to. I've only been going for about a week now and my favorite guy up front already remembers little personal details that I tell him. The coffee and food is great as well, I recommend the ultimate breakfast sandwich on a croissant. I am genuinely upset that it took so long for me to start coming here.“

“Finally got to try one of their famous cakes. Delicious!!!! Had an online order and we were instantly greeted by a very nice young man working there, our cake was ready and we were good to go within a minute. I love the small business vibe they have and the enthusiasm from the employees. Will be back!“

“Great food and excellent service. Must try….“

“Moulin in San Clemente is this adorable French bistro that's totally transporting. The vibe's cozy and it feels like a mini getaway. We sat outside and it was perfect, beautiful sunny day and the outdoor seating is gorgeous. I went for the omelette special with mushrooms and French ham and it hit the spot, eggs were perfect and the flavors were great. My wife loved the Croque Monsieur sandwich. Customer service was outstanding, the staff were super friendly and on point. Oh, and the fresh squeezed orange juice was amazing! They've also got this cute little market thing going on which was a nice touch. If you're in San Clemente, Moulin is a solid pick for a chill French meal. We'll be back.“

“Auntie Anne’s in San Clemente, California truly made my day. The customer service was heartfelt, joyful, and far beyond what I expected. From the moment I walked in, the team was attentive, intentional, and very fast, while still making each person feel seen and welcomed. The store was also exceptionally clean, which made the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests and take pride in what they do. It is rare to go somewhere for something simple and leave feeling encouraged, but that is exactly how I felt. Thank you to Manager’s Name Veronica and the team Melanie, Rosa for creating such a joyful and memorable experience. They should get a raise!!!“
