California Bakery is a small, family-run establishment offering a variety of pastries, including donuts, croissants, and meat pies. The service is friendly, quick, and reasonably priced. Popular items include apple turnovers, chocolate glazed donuts, and especially the meat pies, with curry beef being a favorite when warm and fresh out of the oven. The bakery's pastry is beautifully flaky, and the flavors of the fillings are satisfying.
Customers often praise the good banh mi, and mention it as a highlight along with the good coffee and affordable prices. The bakery has a selection of drinks from the fridge and traditional doughnuts that have received positive feedback. Some customers note that parking can be challenging, especially during busy times, but spots are often available before 9am on weekdays.
The bakery is located near the 28 bus stop and across from a Safeway, which has a big bathroom for convenience. Customers also mention the delicious French donuts, empanadas, pâté choux, and curry pies. The store is simple, no frills and clean, with one table and a counter if you're waiting for the L and want to stop in for a quick bite. Overall, California Bakery is a solid choice for tasty pastries, friendly service, and a comforting atmosphere despite a few minor drawbacks.
