The food was good but overpriced. They charged me 50 cents for ice.

Cute place I wish we had found before our drive to the airport to leave town. We will visit next time we are in town. They had a few gluten free options which we were very excited to find! My wife has celiac and they confirmed basic GF handling, but they are all in the same case, separate platters. No reaction to the delicious Quiche Lorraine.

Not fast, but take it easy. Very nice folks there.

I almost cried when I had their chocolate chip cookie! They have good options, and the items are reasonably priced too. The croissant was buttery, and flaky. The farmhouse-inspired space creates an inviting atmosphere. Customer service is good.

Picked up a box of different pastries here on a Sunday morning. They were all very fresh and delicious. Staff seemed a little stressed and grumpy.

Wonderful cherry pie. But 40.00?

Great customer service! Huge cups of coffee, tasty quiches and ollaliberry pie. The ollaliberry pie tastes like grandma’s recipe.

Hidden gem of a local bakery tucked into an industrial area near the hotel. lots of great choices for breakfast, lunch of brunch options. i went with a savory spinach and swiss quiche and a personal strawberry rhubarb sweet pie/tart for dessert. Both were stellar. A few tables inside as well as a small patio out front which I was able to enjoy on a nice afternoon when I arrived.

I love the decorations of this cafe, love the outdoor seating, the lady was friendly, i got a latte and it was good and quickly. I also got the cheese danish with strawberry, and it was delicious as well, i asked if she could microwave it, but she said the oven is not working! They have a sign that no dogs are allowed except service dogs. They open from 8-4 pm, cameras inside too to keep you feel safe! I am not sure they have a wifi. I didn't ask. The only thing is i wish my food and drinks were served with real plates and cups instead of disposable ones! The only thing it lacks of 1 star. I will go back!

The pastries looked delicious but we decided to have their espresso drinks this time. They bake and sell at several outdoor markets in the Monterey Co (Carmel) as well as Cabrillo College’s Farmers Market on Saturday (Aptos). This location isn’t fancy, not exactly a date location, but the mini pies, pies, cookies and other items (biscotti in bag for $10, branded cloth bags and honey) would make a perfect hostess gift or breakfast box for company & guests! The pies are handmade on location, definitely made with love unlike Costco. Very sweet Elena, great job! ??

Parking: There are a few tables right in the front of this industrial lot.

What a great cafe. Spent an afternoon here and had an excellent Greek salad, piece of pie, and latte. Top notch service from Casey. Great outdoor seating and an awesome place to spend some time if you’re getting your car worked on next door.
