About Kristoffer's Cafe & Bakery

Kristoffer's Cafe & Bakery is a cozy and welcoming spot that serves delicious treats and drinks. Their tres leches cake is a standout, with a perfect balance of sweetness and softness. The bakery is especially praised for its wide selection of pastries and the highly-recommended tres leches cake, which many say is the best they have ever had. Other popular items include the Chocoflan, regular flan, house salad, and fresh pastries like almond croissants. The cafe offers great coffee and affordable prices, with friendly staff making everyone feel welcome. Although it is currently carry-out only, it is a good place to get tasty food and drinks, including their famous lemonade. Visitors also appreciate the kindness of the owners, who were patient and generous when customers accidentally ordered from a similar-sounding bakery nearby, even giving free goodies. For those wanting a whole cake, it’s best to order in advance, but slices and smaller cakes are available for walk-ins in limited quantities. The cafe menu is available but many come mainly for the cake. Overall, Kristoffer's remains one of the few truly mom and pop cafés and bakeries left, offering a friendly atmosphere and high-quality baked goods.
