Patisserie/Cake Shops near South San Francisco, CA

“Absolutely love Spruce Cafe. If you want quality artisanal coffee made with care, this is the place. If you want quick burnt milk coffee, go to Starbucks.

The team here is honestly what makes it special — Amy, Julia, Caitlin, Noah, Andrea, Isa, and Alex always create such a welcoming environment. They remember my dog’s name and always offer him a treat, which says so much about the kind of experience they create for their customers.

You can tell they genuinely care about the coffee, the atmosphere, and the people coming through the door. Great drinks, warm staff, and consistently good vibes every time I come in.“

“The place is clean, the staff are all kind and always wearing a smile maybe because they are happy working with one another. The young handsome man who is their store manager has a very pleasing personality and is a people-oriented person which we love the most in this store not to mention the great tasting food and freshly baked pastries. Thanks much and keep up the good work! Kuddos!“

“We were spending the night at a hotel near SF International Airport, so we wanted to grab some snacks for the evening and breakfast for the morning. When we first arrived it was not busy and there was no line to checkout, but by the time we were ready to checkout, the line was around 10 groups long and got longer when we were leaving.

Paris Baguette is a chain bakery that offer coffees, teas and other drinks in addition to a large selection of bakery items and cakes. For bakery items, go grab a tray and tongs, then head over to the clear plexiglass cabinets and start grabbing all the delicious baked goods that your taste buds desire. I would suggest staring with walking along the cabinets to scout out the items first before grabbing a tray and tongs, otherwise you have the tendency to just keep grabbing items that look good on the first pass and then be up with too much. Their cakes look very appealing and tempting to purchase. We just ate dinner and I was too full to try one of their coffee or tea drinks.

Paris Baguette is quickly expanding into many cities, so there may be one popping up near you soon. I would like to try more of their items in the future.“

“Ordered birthday cake and it was divine. Cake was so moist and delicious. Customer service was fantastic too. Will definitely order again“

“the coffee and pastries here are always on point. this is definitely one of my favorite spots to take friends who are in town and to get myself a sweet treat in the morning <3 the Vietnamese iced coffee, cookies, pastrami sandwich, and kouign Amman are some favs“

“Very nice place, amazing attention, I love it.“

“A very cozy place in the financial district. Even though we went on a weekend, there were still a lot of people working there. Their pour over coffee is reasonably priced and they also provide coffee beans in the shop. I like the paintings they have inside. The coffee also comes with a postcard telling us where the coffee beans come from and the history, which I think is very nice. If you like coffee, I recommend giving this place a try.“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“Lots of seating, the earl grey crepe cake was sooooo good but a little too floral for me. Planning to come back and try other flavors, I love that there are so many Asian inspired ones. I’m really sad this was so good because it’s super worth the $12-14 per cake :’)“

“Needed a cake for my daughter’s 2nd birthday! I texted them first to see if they can accommodate the design as well as timeline. They were very responsive! Placing an order online was seamless. They also deliver!

We had the cake delivered on the day off. The cake was amazing - looks and tastes great! Our guests devoured it an had been asking who made the cake!“

“Yummy coconut custard bun! Can’t wait to go back and try more of the beautiful treats“

“Everything I've ever had from here has been amazing, just scrumptious perfection. I used to live a block away and would go there more often, I've moved a bit further away now but returned today for lunch and sweet treats. The guava puff pastry I got today was sublime, the ganache brownie is my standby go-to, literally the best brownie I've ever had in my life. The soups are always exquisite. Just nice people, everything clean and fresh, a pleasant little community experience around the corner from where I grew up in my family home of 40 years. Coming to Patisserie on California always feels like coming home.“

“Excellent ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤜❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥵🥵“

“The patio? There’s a patio??

I’ve been coming to Dynamo for years and somehow had no idea. I always just grabbed a donut to go or picked up a box for coworkers and left.

This time I saw the “patio” sign, grabbed a coffee and a donut, and sat down—and it completely changed everything.

It’s sunny, quiet, and weirdly perfect for getting work done. Great donuts, great coffee - but the patio is the hidden gem.“

“We had a great experience working with Yana at My Baking Creations! Yana was responsive, creative and an amazing cake artist/baker. From start to end of the process, Yana was communicative and helpful to bring our design idea into fruition. Delivery was seamless and on-time as well. The cake had beautiful fondant work and the chocolate cake tasted divine and decadent. Looking forward to going to Yana again for future birthday cakes!“

“Kouign-amann is one of my favorite cakes.“

“They make a really good flat white & their pastries are quite delectable!🥰“

“We did a five-course, intimate, dessert tasting at Bellaria. Every item was hand-crafted, thoughtful, innovative, and delicious. It started off with savory bites before moving into the main attractions. Our party absolutely loved the Mandarin and White Tea dish with seabuckthorn and tonka. The Pear Tatin Roulade and Souffle Bread Pudding were expertly crafted and technically impressive. The Chocolate dish at the end was the perfect bite to end the meal. And everything (besides the caviar) was vegan!I can't wait to see what else comes out of this innovative dessert studio. The space is small so you'll have to sign up in advance for the tasting, but it makes it intimate and homey. It makes a great date night!“

“Small neighborhood bakery in West Portal with a variety of baked goods and excellent coffee. The latte was spot on and we shared several baked items, all excellent. No seating inside and a couple of tables in front. Right on the route if you are doing the Double Crosstown trail, so perfectly located for a quick stop along the trail. Ditch the Starbucks and Peets and come here for coffee“

“sandwiches, parking, professionalism“

“I love this place. So chic! Has artfully made desserts. Each one is so unique, beautiful and tastes delicious!“

“Reviewing this only for the donuts and ham+cheese pretzel croissant - incredible bakery. The croissant is my favorite in the city (including Arsicault and Tartine - different style though to be fair) because it's rich and flakey yet on the lighter side. Donuts are freshly filled and delicious. I go for the ham+cheese croissant all the time“

“I called to order a birthday cake as a surprise for my friend. I didn't get her name, but the lady on the phone was so nice and helpful! They delivered it so quickly and my friend was thrilled, which made me very happy. Thank you so much for the great service!“

“This place is a hole in the wall. We ordered a slice of the following: matcha slice cake, tiramisu slice cake and black sesame slice cake. Omg. Their slice cake is a bit expensive but it so worth it. My favorite is the black sesame cake. My sister in law was the matcha cake. We had to order a cake for a birthday so guess what we ordered?“

“This is my favorite location when I feel like getting some empanadas, pastries (mamon), or cakes (Ube flan cake). Empanadas, I usually order the chicken, beef and pork. Beef is my favorite. They came out with a spicy chicken which I haven’t tried. And recently I just bought their version of senorita bread. Will update how it is. But I always will come back when I need my empanadas fix.“

“We tried hokkaido sponge cake, crème brûlée, chestnut slice cake, tiramisu and chocolate mousse cake on various occasions. They all were delicious. The staff was also friendly. It’s hard to find parking due to the busy downtown location. The place gets crowded very quickly. Their egg tarts and buns are also popular.“

“The food and service was amazing! Finding an open table kinda sucked. If you have a sweet tooth I'd suggest wearing a muzzle because there are so many delicious items to choose from. I especially liked how they have a section with prepackaged items.“

“Good Ambience, Something for every Palate. Hot/ Cold Beverages. Fresh Chilled Mousse and Cakes Look Scrumptious“

“I love you can grab a tray and pick yourself what you want.
The only issue is there is no label anywhere so you may grab something thinking it is what you may think but it is not

Staff is friendly. Enough tables to sit“

“Very good quality for the bakery items, and their coffee is pretty good. However, there needs to be a system, where you just don't stand at the counter. Waiting for your coffee to come out, keeping the people behind you from paying just for their bakery items. Or Pete's. Other than that, it's amazing place.“
