I can’t believe all this time of living here, I didn’t come here sooner. I got the burrito bowl in the morning and it is so delicious. Also got the chai latte with oat milk and the BEST chai latte I’ve ever had.
They have vegan cheese and gf bread and vegan eggs! So accommodating. 10/10! Go go go!
And their pastries are to diiieeeee foooorrr!!

Saved for future visits, based on the many posted reviews.
It appears to be offering great stuff, which unfortunately we missed to stop by at that time.
We’ll pass by them later!

Stayed in Tahoe for almost a week and came here almost everyday. Everything was always good! I usually don’t eat breakfast but evening looked and tasted so good.

This place was highly recommended, but to be honest I was disappointed with my apple fritter. A bit dry and cinnamon-roll style icing. Still sweet.

Bought a bunch of donuts to try them out. The donuts were ok, way overloaded with sugary glaze, except for the cider donuts. They were completely raw. If you want to charge $4 per donut, you gotta do a better job.

Must be under new ownership or have all new staff. Awful food, awful service this morning 6/11/25 at around 8-9. Like inedible. Biscuit was dense, dry and soggy with way too much butter. Baked eggs were hard and rubbery. Scone was burnt on the edges and super dry. Chai was flavorless, mostly hot water. Coffee was cold. Prices were crazy expensive. No tables to sit at. Staff was not friendly and not helpful. I do not recommend!

One of my favorite spots to grab breakfast in tahoe city. My go to is the croissant sandwich. Pastries are next level. Pleasant staff, no frills. Highly recommend.
Healthy fun food off the beaten path just north of Tahoe City and walking distance to a few great beaches.
They got good coffee and hot chocolate! The breakfast burrito was good.

If you’re in Lake Tahoe and you haven’t been to Sugar Pine Cakery & Café, you’re seriously missing out on one of Tahoe’s best-kept, most delicious secrets! 🍪🎂 Nestled just outside Tahoe City, this spot is a true hidden gem—not just for the pastries but for the incredible service too.
🚀 Gracie was absolutely fantastic—welcoming us with a warm smile and world-class knowledge about everything they serve! 🌞💛
🔥 What we tried & LOVED:
☕ Drip Coffee—For the price? A steal. Super strong, bold, and flavorful. Reminds me of Seattle’s Best but has its own Tahoe twist—possibly from a local roaster like Honey Sunrise Coffee. 🐝🌄
🍪 Chocolate Chocolate Chip Butter Cookie—Rich. Buttery. Decadent. 🤤💯
🍩 Super Stacked Chocolate Donut—Topped with coarse salt for that perfect sweet-savory balance! 😍👨🍳
🥐 Apricot Jelly Danish—Flaky, fruity perfection! 🍑
💡 PRO TIP: You know a place is amazing when there’s a line of people outside waiting to get their hands on these heavenly treats! 🙌🏽
☕ NEXT TIME: We’re trying the Immunity Rooster 🐓 (a savory bone broth drink) & the Butter Coffee 🧈☕—sounds like a game-changer!
💥 If you’re visiting Tahoe, FIND THIS PLACE & experience pastry paradise. Trust me, Gracie & the team will treat you right! 🙏🏽✨
