I finally found a bakery in Austin that has the perfectly crafted, out of this world cakes and pastries. It’s quite a drive from my house but I will even walk to this place for the deliciousnesses. My son’s new favorite and mine too…Plus their cakes feel so light on body and soul…Thanks to the one who bakes these beauties.

Only average on service as it is primarily self service, everything is super tasty
The menu is alright. The staff is overwhelmed and pickup/wait time is a bit of a disaster.

One of the greatest places I have ever been. Bake goods, hot or cold tea, coffee, Boba tea. Seating, restrooms, and employees are polite. Customers are respectful. Everything is displayed & wrapped. Grab a tray upon entering then grab your favorite bread treats, and go pay. Don't forget your hot or cold tea or coffee. I've returned to this place about twice the pleasure was all mine.

One of my favorite pastry shops EVER!! We were in the area and just had to stop in. Every location we've been to has been phenomenal and this one was no exception. It was packed when we went and we had to wait a little bit for our drink, but the self-serve pastry stations were all stocked, the restaurant was pretty clean and not too noisy, and it was well worth the wait. The cashier was super quick handling our order, was very sweet, and didn't look fazed at all by how many people were there. He definitely deserves a raise. It was 'strawberry season' at 85 Degrees so we ordered a Strawberry Matcha Latte made with fresh puréed strawberries and high grade matcha. The drink came out in beautiful red, white, and green layers, and it was a shame to have to mix them together, but it tasted absolutely delicious. The strawberry pieces weren't too big as to get stuck in the straw and the matcha was smooth and rich. The flavors paired and complimented each other beautifully. We also added the Strawberry Danishes to our basket as well and they were absolutely phenomenal. The sweet pastry was flaky and had the perfect level of savory to balance out the sweetness of the cream. The cream was super fluffy and cloudy, the strawberries were ripe and lightly covered in a sweet glaze, and everything was dusted in powdered sugar. Strawberry season tasted heavenly. Alongside the strawberry themed treats, we also left with five phenomenal pastries. The Red Bean Bread, Matcha Bun, and Hokkaido Custard Bun were all made with a deliciously sweet and super soft bread and were each filled with fantastic flavors. The Red Bean Bun was filed with a sweet red bean paste and was topped with a light glaze and a sprinkling of savory sesame seeds. The Matcha Bun was filled with a matcha custard that was a perfect balance of a slightly more bitter matcha and subtle sweet cream, and was dusted with a heavier layer of matcha and a lighter layer of powdered sugar. Lastly, the Hokkaido Custard Bun, one of my favorites treats on the menu, was filled with a thin layer of custard that balanced out the sweetness of the cloudy whipped cream filling the center. It had a light dusting of powdered sugar on top, and the entire pastry was so sweet and soft and incredibly delicious. The other two slightly denser pastries were the Chocolate Chip Bowl and Premium Milk. The Premium Milk was made with a thicker, glazed sweet bread filled with rich and buttery white chocolate chunks and a thin layer of creamy custard in the center. The Chocolate Chip Bowl was the densest pastry we purchased, almost the consistency of a freshly baked bagel but far softer, and was easily the least sweet of them all. The bread was still by all means sweet and the multitude of chocolate chips scattered throughout this bread were semi sweet, pairing fantastically with the powdered sugar topped bread. I could go on and on about 85 Degrees Bakery and how fantastic it is, but I urge you to go try this bakery out yourself. It's very easy to get a sugar overload from all of the sweet pastries and cakes, so I'd highly recommend picking up a savory item or a tea or both to balance out all of the sugar. One of the best things about this place is that it's super cheap but high quality food and drink so you can leave with a lot without breaking the bank. This bakery is a MUST!!

I really wish they had some gluten free options. Everything looks amazing! I had a pudding that was nice. It came in a pretty little pot. The beverage offerings are great.

Fast service and a quick filler-upper for boba milk tea and other Asian inspired sweets. The business model reminds me of Sweet Hut.

I usually love coming here, but today I waited 20 minutes for a simple iced coffee. That’s truly unacceptable.I ordered at 9:12 and didn’t have my coffee until 9:32.On top of that, I saw multiple people who ordered after me get their coffees before me. I just don’t understand why they would do the orders out of order.

I had avoided this place for a long time because there are so many other boba places in Austin, and especially in their shopping center, but I caved in! I was intimidated by their constant long lines, but really it wasn't too bad. By 5 o' clock when we went, there weren't too many options for pastry's, but we ended up trying their red bean buns! I was thoroughly impressed by the large quantity of red bean paste, and the delicate and fluffy texture of the bun! 5/5 for that! And then the boba, also a 5/5 for me! It's convenient they have a digital kiosk to order at, and their boba is far cheaper than most I get, but is actually just as good if not better than most! The texture and flavor of the boba are sweet and chewy, aka perfection! The black milk tea is strong and creamy, as it should be, and their egg pudding is also very good!!! It's such a nice treat, and it's very economical, will be putting this on my regular list for boba outings
