“I saw a sign for gourmet ice cream and I obviously had to stop in. This place beyond exceeded my expectations! I got the saffron pistachio ice cream and it is one of the most delicious ice creams I've ever had. Perfect balance of sweet and mild and I can see myself craving this. The people there were so nice and friendly as well. 1000% recommend!“

“Good cupcakes, a nice way to treat while hanging around the shopping center.“

“Delicious Sandwiches and pastries.“

“So happy to finally have an authentic French bakery cafe in our town. Their coffees, breads, pastries and quiches are superb and I love it when they add new flavors and items on the menu. Also I think most of their pricing is reasonable given the quality of their ingredients. So they are doing fabulous but here are some additional suggestions from me - -I wish they would do a weekly soup and quiche flavor according to the seasons as they do with desserts. -I would love to see a comprehensible cake list with sizes and prices to be able to order cakes for birthdays and such. -I would love to see opera cake slices as it’s one of my favorites. -Since most items are on the $$ side, it would be great if they let people sample a few of the newer things because people are hesitant to spend money on something they are not sure they would like. I give Benoit ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“I ordered nearly 300 mochi donuts from Third Culture for an event I was having, and they were FANTASTIC! We got a bunch of almost every flavor they offer, and they were all so good - our guests were raving about them and kept asking where we got them from. Their service was also wonderful, they were super responsive and fast, even with such a large order. Definitely would recommend!“

“Nilekha made a WWE theme cake for us, which looked and tasted really good. everyone loved it! I highly recommend her“

“Max made my daughters quince cake last fall and it came out absolutely amazing and delicious! It was exactly what my daughter wanted. Beautiful and tasty!“

“deliciousness the cookie's cakes pastries and chocolate covered strawberries need I say more 😋🎯😉“

“This is our secret weapon to getting our daughter out of bed on a school day. Their morning buns, baguettes, quiche, and chocolate croissants are a favorite. Fresh bakery and awesome team working there 👍“

“Banh mi, teriyaki chicken sandwich and breakfast sandwich on the croissant with a cherry turnover for later! Kim and Teri are the stars of the show though, amazing people making amazing food!!! ! I wish there was more than 5 starts to give!“

“I signed up for my daughter and her dad to attend Macaroon class. Both came back with delicious macaroon and shared their enjoyment experience during the class. Next day, they tried baking Macaroon on their own. Even without having all the proper equipment, they were able to make the Macaroon very soft and delicious. Thank you, Natalie, for having my daughter and her dad in class. The cost for the class is fair ($85/person). I know a lot of people are interested in joining your class. The only issue is the distance is too far from their homes. I wish you will offer more variety of classes throughout the year.“

“Best alfajores! Wonderful cakes. Beautifully designed deserts and great tasting desserts.“

“I was visitng from kansascity. Loved Large mithai options and paratha keema.“

“Wow the cannolis were amazing! Ordered 4 pistachio and 4 chocolate as dessert for an Italian dinner night. Several people commented that these cannolis are the best they’ve ever had! Great ratio, not too sweet and the shells were a fabulous crunchy! Will be recommending and ordering again. Thank you!“

“Fabulously, delicious cupcakes for our daughters 7 year birthday party. Catastic! Thanks smallcakes!“

“God-tier french butter croissants, quiches, and canneles de Bordeaux
Helpful staff that keep the line moving
Hard to believe the Bay Area's best croissants are not in Berkeley, Albany or San Francisco but are in fact behind the counter of a tiny bakery in Lafayette.
Go figure!“

“driving down Main Street yesterday looking for a Dunkin' Donuts and see this cute little shop very well lit inviting. the Portuguese sweet breads are out of this world the custard tarts are to die for this place is a gem.“

“This is our third time buying conchas and they’re amazing. They have unique delicious flavors which the 4 we tried have not disappointed at all. They are super soft even if they are on day 4. Our family loves them and will continue to repurchase!“

“We love their Mint Latte ☕️ and many yummy pastries to choose from❤️😍 highly recommended !“

“Great cupcake spot that features alot of different and yummy flavors. They also sell older cupcakes for a discount and mini cupcakes, which is nice to sample.
The double chocolate was very good as was the key lime.
Service was fast and friendly. Place is small so can get crowded.“

“LOVE this bakery!

Highly recommend:

- SCONES: Doesn’t matter which one; they’re all super delicious. Crumbling and crunchy on the edges + buttery and billow-y in the center.

- MORNING BUNS; Flaky, buttery, and sweet with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar filling.

- APPLE DANISH: Packed with sweet apple filling and baked to perfection. Flavors are so so good.

It’s on the pricier side but it’s because they use high quality butter and ingredients. Some seating outside but it’s mostly grab and go.“

“We had a higher than average expectation of the cookies but once we had them we were a little disappointed ?. They are not bad, but for the price and fanfare they put up the cookies are not up to par. Willing to try it again, maybe the batch we had that day had some issues.“

“OMG!!! ❤️❤️❤️ A little piece and a little slice of Hawai'i right in our backyard! Tina is such an amazing baker. So blessed that she could share her passion with our little ohana. We special ordered the Hawaiian Chantilly Cake and Toffee Lemon Crunch cupcakes. Everything was perfect not to sweet, light, and pillowy - it was biting into a piece of heaven. It was a huge hit with all our guests! Mahalo, Auntie! ❤️“

“I highly recommend their creme brulee coffee and orange cranberry scone. Another must have is there La Madeline waffle! OMG was it delicious!!!“

“Never been disappointed. Amazing cakes that not only look good but taste good. If you can dream they will execute and create it with perfection. Awesome customer service too.“

“At the Bagel Bakery of Dublin, my morning started on a flavorful note with a visit to their bustling establishment. Amidst the busy atmosphere, the service remained top-notch, reflecting the staff's dedication to ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Settling in for a dine-in breakfast, I opted for the Eggwich featuring jalapeño and cheddar bagel, accompanied by sausage and pepper jack cheese.The combination of the spicy jalapeño and rich cheddar infused into the bagel provided a delightful kick, complementing the savory flavors of the sausage and pepper jack cheese perfectly. Each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, leaving a lasting impression of satisfaction.Despite the rush of customers, the staff maintained efficiency and attentiveness, ensuring that every diner received prompt service and attention to detail. The seamless coordination between the kitchen and the front of house team was evident, enhancing the overall dining experience.In conclusion, my visit to the Bagel Bakery of Dublin was nothing short of delightful. From the flavorful jalapeño and cheddar bagel to the attentive service, every aspect of my breakfast experience surpassed expectations. I look forward to returning to explore more of their menu offerings and enjoying the warm ambiance once again.“

“This is by far our FAVORITE GLUTEN FREE PLACE! So Delicious and safe for everyone to eat in my home!“

“I love how much effort was put in the cake I ordered for my 21st birthday! It was beautifully designed and tasted really good! 😊“

“I am lucky enough to work with Victor’s mom and once in a while she brings Victor’s cheesecake to work and then I lose my mind! I don’t know if I can find the right words in the English language to do them justice but here it goes! Victor’s cheesecakes are like a cheesecake became the queen of England but it never lost its cool and warmth of a regular person! You still have the cheesecake, the smooth cheese taste and texture we all love but then the cheesecake gets so refined by the flavors that it comes in that you just have to stop after every bite and really taste the bouquet of flavor and sweetness that just makes you sit down and really enjoy it! If Victor lived next to me, I would be 500 lbs! I have loved every flavor I tried but my favorite is definitely hands down ube, and apple, and peach, and pineapple! Never mind, I can’t choose one! They are all to die for! Amen!“

“We really enjoyed your cupcakes!“

“Love their persion bread and their pastries fresh bake the ppl are very nice love the samples they put out every day“

“Wow, just wow! We found this bakery a few months ago and I really need to spread the word. The cookies and pastries are so so good. The staff is delightful and our experiences have been very positive. Everyone should come pay them a visit!“

“This place is the best! The atmosphere is adorable and There’s awesome daily specials for drinks/coffee and a wide selection of pastries to choose from. You can taste the quality here, it’s obvious that the bakers make everything fresh. Tons of savory options as well, so Tal’s is a good lunch option too. Would recommend!“

“The sweet rice drink♡ bingsoo♡ kimbap♡♡ can't wait to go back and try more!!“

“Always wanted to go to Lever. I work right near here, and I came here on New Year’s Eve.

It is a very cute coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be difficult as it is small and tight, but there is parking in the back.

The coffee was great here. Their lavender ice latte was amazing. I believe they are known for their syrups, and I also got to try their orange rosemary syrup. It was unique, but I think the safe bet is to go with the lavender syrup.

It can get very packed here, and they seem to have a smaller staff. Things could move slow, but be patient as it is worth the wait.

Parking: Limited space so look for parking outside the lot or in the back“

“We wanted our cake to be based on our baby’s most favorite book - Chika Chika Boom Boom. Not only was the cake gorgeous looking, it tasted amazing. Loved the ease of conversing with Surbhi too.“

“We’ve been eating these donuts for over 30 years. There the best around.“

“We ordered (4) dozen custom-assorted bundtinis for my son's birthday party online. In the craziness of preparing for the party, I set the pickup time as the day and time of the party, when I meant to set it for the afternoon of the day before. I arrived at the store to pick up the order when I thought I had set the pickup time for, only to realize my mistake when they couldn't find the order. I was frantic, because my party was the next day, before they would open. The staff was pleasant and generous. They offered to quickly make my order, if I wouldn't mind waiting 15 minutes. I happily accepted, and they saved the day! The bundtinis got rave reviews at our party.“

“Omg! I love walking into your bakery! It makes me smile really big! Fudge brownies with cream cheese are the best in the world! My favorite is coconut cream pies! Reminds me of my beautiful grandmas pies when I was a child. Thank you for your service and your commitment to help serve our community. It’s a pleasure doing business with you.“

“Spiral chocolate croissant 🥐 is a must!!!“

“Food was done quickly and it tasted amazingly delicious.“

“I was craving rice cakes filled with sesame and sugar one day and was ecstatic to find out that one of the best rice cake places in the Bay Area was near me. When I went in around Sunday 7am, the owners were busy making bulk orders but kindly paused to show me a few of their small selections for sale. Sadly, no honey rice cake was available for the day but after asking, they advised to call beforehand to confirm what they have in stock that day since the menu changes each day. It’s a good idea since it seemed like their hours vary based on what I read from the notice on the door. Bring cash.

I picked up two (pictured) rice cakes and they were both warm, soft, and delicious. I will be returning for more.

I really wanted to eat real honey rice cake, not the hard honey rice cake sold at the market, so I looked for it, and luckily, there was a traditional rice cake shop nearby, so I rushed to it in the morning. There was no honey rice cake that day, but I regretfully bought injeolmi and bean rice cake with anko and I was not disappointed. It's the same taste I had in Korea when I was young. I would like to thank the owner who works hard from early in the morning to make delicious rice cakes for Koreans living in other places. I hope you do this for a long time. You are already receiving a lot of love in Northern California, but I hope you prosper even more.“

“Great food, good customer service, fair prices.“

“This place is a must-try! The atmosphere is so cozy and pleasant. I had a dish with two servings of rice, a beef patty, egg on top, and it was covered in gravy—it was to die for! I can’t remember the name, but the flavor was unforgettable. I’ll definitely be back for more of their amazing food!“

“Im a big fan of their Phò, grilled chicken and shrimp vermicelli and their pastries . The staffs and owner Alice are very attentive and go their way to know their customers/guests. I highly recommend La Patisserie“
