Bakeries near Oakland

“This place is sinfully amazing! I am nervous about leaving a review about their cannoli in fear that they will be hard to get, they are that yummy!! As I told the owner who is just as sweet as her bakery, I only get cannoli’s in NYC. NOt anymore!!! Not only are they as good as the ones in NYC, they are creamy and smooth!! There is no grit and the filling tastes like it should!! The breakfast sandwiches are really good too!! You are missing out if you don’t give her a try. They serve gluten free that my coworker drives to to get her treats!! Oh, and she makes specialty cakes, I can’t wait to for her to make the one I will need soon!!“

“They have some of the best coffee and it's really nice to have a cafe in the area where you can sit and sip for a while. Their pastries are good, but nothing too spectacular and you never know which ones will be in stock. I find their cakes to be a little dry and overly sweet, although the lemon cake frosting tends to even that out. It's not somewhere I go regularly, but it's good for special occasions; the pastry boxes and tea time sets are very nice.“

“She is amazing! She is kind, and caring and you can tell that she loves what she does. She made my husband and I our "wedding cupcakes" and they were the BEST cupcakes I have ever had in my life. We tried 5 different flavors and you cannot go wrong with any of them. Her prices are very fair and you wont be disappointed.“

“Wow! We wanted to switch it up from Big G's and this was great! For the first time ever, I wanted to call the place and tell them how much I loved eating that sandwich (while still in the car). I got a 207, I think I'd read about it before and who knew egg salad could taste that good with such simple ingredients? I think that is their secret. It's a relatively simple menu and their ingredients are high quality and have lots of flavor. My partner got the Kennebec (a simple breakfast bagel sandwich, he chose Pork Roll) and the egg was cooked perfectly for the sandwich. It's not the cleanest car eating, but you can get napkins and the sandwiches are wrapped in paper, cut in half, and then aluminum cover. This is the first time I've ever noticed a bunch of college kids also patronizing a place, which also seems like a good sign. It's also cheaper than Sand Hill Bagels. Service was lovely and the owner (I think) is running the register and he makes it feel very welcoming. We will definitely be back.“

“Nice to see that an old-school bakery has survived in this day and age of everything becoming corporatized. They have a large selection and are quite busy. I like their bread rolls. They even have brown bread. Also, they have yummy eclairs. There's something probably here for everybody's taste.“

“Convenient place to grab a sandwich and some yummy baked goods in Waterville, with absolutely wonderful staff and service, in a convenience store that's half dedicated to the baking process and half dedicated to quick eats - premade, some fruit, lots of drinks and chips, etc. The sandwich was functional, the baked goods were awesome. No place to eat, it's takeout only.“
