One of the few places open early at the mall. I stopped in for a breakfast treat and found a wide assortment of pastries (Asian inspired flavors and American classics). I bought the Hokkaido Milk Bun and a pair of custard tarts in a two-item bag. I made good choices! The Hokkaido bun was soft and inside the milk cream was smooth/not overly sweet! I couldn't resist delaying eating one of the Portugese-style egg tarts. Flaky crust. Egg custard smooth as silk. Delicious! I would buy both again. Oh, by the way, there is a panel to order drinks only if that's what you want. Or order at the cashier and pay for your pastries at the same time. Convenient options. read more

Always have to make a stop when I'm at the mall, bc how can you not?! My fave is the salted bread. It's their take on the Korean salt bread. It's not exactly the same but damn near close in my opinion. The Mochi egg tart is buttery, flaky goodness. The taro bun is another fave. Not everything knocks it out of the park but those 3 are pretty solid. read more

Small location in stonestown, limited quantities compared to larger locations. Ordered a drink through the mobile app, ETA was 25 minutes. Okay that's fine, there must be a lot of mobile orders. Waited about 20 minutes and asked the cashier about my drinks. APPARENTLY MOBILE ORDERS ARENT MADE UNTIL CUSTOMER ARRIVES, WAITS IN THE BAKERY LINE, AND NOTIFIES CASHIER THEY ARE HERE. Nowhere are these directions provided in the app or in store. So then the cashier said they'll make my drink right now and it took them like a minute. I ordered through the app a 2nd time, but it was a pain to wait through the long bakery line again to tell the cashier I'm here for my drink... read more

I never thought about writing a review for 85 because the experience is pretty standard. You choose buns on a tray, you pay, order drinks at counter or self serve kiosk, done. But 85... what is this monstrosity??? I ordered a Vietnamese coffee. I didn't ask for 25% off 75% foam. read more

Food: (5/5) Love their milk teas here and pastries. My favorite pastry is definitely their garlic cheese bread. It's so savory and hits the spot. I am a patron of 85 degrees easily because of their affordable and quality products. I have to pick up a Jasmine Green Milk Tea and Garlic Cheese bread every time I visit. 85 degrees remains the most affordable boba shop to this day in my opinion. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had a wide selection of their pastries left despite it being close to closing time. Service: (5/5) I came near closing time but despite the fact, Penny, the manager, was still very friendly and helpful! She explained that the kiosk was a bit slower due to the rain, and I really appreciated her patience and upfront communication. Penny and the other staff members were incredibly kind. I noticed that they made my drink incorrectly since it came out a darker shade than I've gotten before and they offered to remake it with no complaints despite them already being closed which made my day. Ambiance: (5/5) Store was very spacious and love how it is conveniently located at the front of the mall so you can't miss it! read more

Everything was fresh and flaky. Better than expected. My latte was a little bit too sweet for me but the cashier did ask if I wanted it with sugar. Next time I'll decline. The Mochi Egg Tarts had just came out the oven. Cashier was friendly. Would be nice for inside seating but they only had outdoor seating when I was there. I went in on a Sunday about 9am. My favorite was definitely the Coconut Streusel. It was like a flaky croissant with a coconut filling (no shreds of coconut). read more

We're back! It is a staple, and we keep coming back. It is reliable. They have good bread - soft and chewy, and it doesn't just get stuck in a rock-like state. Ohh, pro tip: if you join and obtain their free membership, then there are perks and deals! It's pretty good since we go often. Their drinks are also priced well. They also have seasonal breads and pastries like this cute pumpkin one - I'm guessing for a limited time! read more

I love 85! They a great selection of breads and pastries for a reasonable and filling price. You really can't go wrong in choosing, but my favorites are the raisin twist bun, milk bread, and brioche bun. So fluffy and soft! They also have a wide variety of cakes to choose from. There are definitely better places to get cakes in the city, but 85 is a consistent and reliable option. Drinks also fall along the same lines. They're not bad, but not great. Better places exist, but will satisfy the cravings. read more

I haven't been here for maybe a year or so, but I was really excited to see the set up and the flow since this particular 85 Celsius is smaller than others you loop into the left and then ring around a circular eight figurine to the cash register on the right. I was sad this particular Saturday afternoon. They did not have any of my sons, favorite barbecue pork buns or different type of savory baked buns, but I was able to get one of the Boba from them. By the register, they also have a kiosk register just for drinks. I decided to order drinks since their Boba drinks are not as expensive as the normal Silicon Valley prices of eight dollars Boba! So I was able to get passionfruit green tea without sugar and light ice for 550! I neglected to order lychee or Boba mainly because the gentleman told me they were still making Boba granted lychee jelly is not the same as Boba. I mentally categorize them the same. The young college students serving me was rather pleasant and friendly, and I was able to get my blueberry tail and be on my way, but I'm really sad. I wasn't able to get a barbecue pork bun for my son. I like the open outdoor area, gated patio area for my puppies to wait outside and everything was clean and nicely kept. I will be back here again for sure! read more

This 85° bakery is located in front/next to the mall and they have a variety of desserts and baked goods. The ordering process is really convenient because you just pick up a tray to grab your pastries. The line was around five minutes for me and the cashier was really nice. The inside was really clean and cute. They have a few seats available if you wanted to enjoy your food there. Parking wasn't too bad since it's a huge mall and there is a variety of stores around the area. Also, if you would just want a drink here, they have a self kiosk that accepts card only. I ordered the mangotale, which was delicious and creamy (5/5). read more

I appreciate the varieties of breads and hot & drinks menu; however, the counters (front & back) needs more attention on cleanliness. Also the floor trash around. I observed there are "no waiting" customers, so a staff CAN come out to check and clean counters with a CLEAN designated cloth for wiping. Kitchen cloth to clean around customers' cup should be a disposal cleaning towel (not using same cloth for wiping other things. Thank you for reading above comment and hopefully manager can implement to all incoming staff. read more

Out of all of the Asian bakery chains spread throughout the Bay Area (Sheng Kee, Paris Baguette, Andersen, etc.), 85 Degrees has generally been my favorite. They aren't as good as some of the mom-and-pop shops I usually frequent, but there's obviously something to be said for the benefits that comes with being a big chain. Not to mention the fact that I just thoroughly enjoy some of their offerings (hello, Brioche Bread!). So, needless to say, I was stoked when they finally expanded into SF (and into Stonestown, no less!). In the years since this location first opened, I've been here countless times. Compared to their other outposts that I've been to, this one is easily the smallest, but they still have their usual array of pastries, breads, and desserts. Even still, for better or worse, I rarely ever stray from some of my usual go-to items - the aforementioned BRIOCHE BREAD (so milky and buttery), the SALTED BUTTER BREAD (really soft), HAM & CHEESE (salty and cheesy), and MILK PUDDING (I don't often get this, but I like that the filling isn't crazy sweet). As convenient as this 85 Degrees may be, though, it's also my least favorite. Given how relatively small the store is, everything about this place feels so cramped - the displays are bunched together and, because it's right by the door, you often have to weave around folks that are leaving/looking almost as soon as you step inside. Plus, in part because of the amount of foot traffic that comes through here, it's not uncommon to see empty shelves/trays even during the middle of the afternoon (I assume they have more in the back, just that they aren't prepped or that the workers aren't super quick to restock). Somewhat surprisingly, even to me, I've yet to try any of the desserts and drinks from here, so I can't speak to how they compare. Based on how the former looks in the display case and the photos of the latter that I've seen, though, I wouldn't be opposed to giving them a shot. I just might wait until I'm at another 85 Degrees, if what some of my fellow Yelpers have said about the service is any indication. read more

On July 2nd during the afternoon, we went into the San Francisco, California Stonestown Galleria location and every single bread was not risen correctly and flat.

I stopped by here while I was visiting the Stonestown mall and bought a milk tea bun, cheese bread, and lychee green milk tea (large which is 22 oz, iced, 25% sweetness). Milk tea bun: It was actually not that sweet and the custard inside is flavored but it doesn't really taste like tea - it's more like brown sugar if anything. The outside reminds me of walnut bread, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but definitely wasn't what I expected. I personally feel the matcha chocolate bread, which is also sold at this location, is better in terms of the flavor profile. Cheese bread: This was much sweeter than I expected, probably from the custard, and hollow inside so it wasn't as filling or dense as you might expect from the appearance. Not bad, but it just wasn't as salty as I thought it'd be Lychee green milk tea: 25% sweetness actually makes it not sweet so you can taste the tea. But I felt the milk ratio was a bit higher and wish the tea was a little stronger overall so that it would taste fruitier and more fragrant. Overall I thought the food was decent and the drink prices are pretty good for the size. There's a current buy one get one 50% off deal for the strawberry festival which consists of three limited edition seasonal strawberry-focused drinks. The shop is rather small, but they made efficient use of the space to have a decent array of breads available. They have a sign showing the sizes of drink cups toward the pickup side of the counter. There's not much indoor seating, but there are outdoor tables, although some are a little rickety and/or have bird poop or other messes on them. read more

I was surprised to discover they've invented their very own "meat tax." Yes -- apparently if you buy a cold pastry to-go that happens to have a bit of meat floss in it, they'll tack on sales tax. For anyone wondering, this is not how California sales tax works. According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA): * Cold food products and bakery goods sold to-go are exempt from sales tax. (Rev. & Tax Code § 6359; Reg. 1602) * The only time it becomes taxable is if it's sold hot, or as part of a combination meal. (Reg. 1603(e)) * CDTFA even has an annotation on croissants with meat/cheese: hot = taxable, cold = exempt. (CDTFA Anno. 550.1712) So no, a pastry contains pork floss is not a special category of "meat taxable pastry." That's a fiction this bakery has come up with. It's disappointing to see a business either misunderstand or ignore the law, while nickel-and-diming customers with charges that shouldn't exist. I'd suggest they review CDTFA's rules on prepared food before inventing their own taxes. Until then, I'll be buying my pastries elsewhere, preferably where they don't charge imaginary taxes. read more

This bakery is located at Stonestown mall. There are plenty of parking. They only have outdoor seating. This bakery is kind of small and have less selection of baked goods compared to the Serramonte one. It was too cramped in the bread selection area. They were offering buy 3 breads get 1 free offer. I couldn't pass on that. I bought the last two boxes of mochi egg tarts, green tea red bean roll, taro swirl, mango custard bun, hot dog bun, and a coffee cruffin. I also bought a 8 inch tiramisu cake. For drinks, I bought the iced sea salt caramel coffee and iced sea salt jasmine green tea. The mochi egg tarts were the highlight of all the baked good that I bought. They weren't too sweet. The green tea red bean roll was pretty good too. It had a hint of green tea. The rest of the buns were just ok. The tiramisu cake was fresh and wasn't really sweet. The coffee sprinkles on the outside of the cake added a very tasty flavor to the cake. The iced sea salt caramel coffee and iced sea salt green jasmine tea were refreshing. read more

Oh, I haven't reviewed this 85c yet either? I guess now's a good time since I just revisited. It's been at this spot for some time now, and it's a place that's almost always busy since it's right outside of the main Stonestown entrance, next to Blaze Pizza. Compared to some of their other locations, it's not a very big spot, but has enough space for all of the main breads they offer, and also their other stuff such as cakes and so on. There's sparse seating options here, so it's mainly just a to-go location, mainly because the place is smaller than other locations as I've mentioned. Their menu, their breads, everything else, is just the standard 85c catalogue, so I won't comment to much on it since the quality is the same from everything I've tried here. I do feel their drinks here are a bit better than some of the other 85c locations, so that is an upside. One thing to note about this spot specifically, they are very busy, as they're not just in a mall, but in a mall around a bunch of schools and students dropping by here. Overall, good location, and I do like the fact that they tend to replenish their bread stock more often than some of the other 85c locations, even though they're so busy. I've been to other locations where you'll always see at least a few spots empty at a time of bread, but here, it's usually always filled during peak times, or half filled and they're in the process of getting more bread onto the trays. Extra point for proactiveness! read more

85 degrees is always a solid spot to pick up some Chinese pastries and cakes. I came by Friday afternoon around 4:30 pm and it was hopping. There were a ton of customers (mostly students I think) here getting pastries and drinks and the shelves were full of product. Parking was hard to find in the parking lot as there were many cars circling around looking for parking. I got a couple of pastries to go: Strawberry cream square cake ($3.75) Hokkaido custard bun ($2.40) Croissant crunch ($2.30) Slice of red velvet cake ($4.05) Of everything we got, the strawberry cake and the Hokkaido custard bun were my favorites. Both were light without being too sweet and made for a great snack post-dinner when we ate it a couple hours later. read more

yummy in my tummy. One of the best Taiwanese style bakery and it's popular in SF Bay Area!

Delicious baked goods - both sweet and savory - and are pretty affordable. Didn't know they made drinks as well and tried one of their milk teas and it turned out pretty good! Their strawberry cream cake is also amazing as a dessert and not overly sweet. If you haven't been here you will definitely find something you like. read more

THIS REVIEW IS FOR DRINKS ONLY! Best boba at stonestown. Period. I've had bad cake from the franchise before, but I've never had a bad boba here. All their drinks are perfectly crafted in terms of quality and sweetness. Their boba texture is great and I love their salted cream with green tea. Their prices are also EXCELLENT for boba in 2023, around $5 vs a $7 elsewhere. TIP: download their app for different deals that they offer! I got a salted cream tea for 50% off and didn't even realize until later! read more

In general, I'm a big fan of 85°C. That being said, this location often has empty displays of pastries or old/mislabeled signs on what everything is. It might be a repercussion of high product turnover and lots of business, but I wish the timing of the breads was better managed. The few items I've had here were more misses than wins: the potato croquette was so salty it was nearly inedible and the black forest cake tasted... not as a black forest cake should. It was barely chocolatey, and much more light and fluffy than you'd expect. I'd say it's more of an Asian interpretation of black forest cake, and will not satisfy a craving for it. The egg/custard items tend to be good. The check out lines move quickly and the workers are very efficient. The store does get dirty when it's crowded though (napkins on the floor etc.). read more

Consistent 85 degrees location with fresh baked pastries and beverages made to order. Because I got a coffee here, I was able to get one of their lemon cake slices for only $1 as part of their February promotion. The coffee was decent and gave me the caffeine boost I needed to get through the rest of my day and it paired so well with the lemon cake. Spongy, not too sweet, with just a hint of lemon flavor, it was a refreshing mid-afternoon treat. read more

It's definitely on the smaller side, but if I'm in the area then I usually stop by to see if anything looks good. You grab your tray and pick up what you want. Everything is individually wrapped. The lines can get long, but they move relatively quick. Remember to bring your own bag! Pros - some unique items you don't typically see elsewhere - good pricing - some items are great, but it takes trial and error to find the ones you like - i like the drinks, especially the cheese salt ones, classic! Cons - the cream filled buns are never cream filled. The pictures are 100% misleading - the cakes are cute, but the flavors are unbalanced and doesn't taste fresh the times I bought them - a lot of the buns look like they could have been baked a little longer, sometimes I worry about food safety in that regard read more

Everything here is excellent. Favorite bakery in SF! Favorites are the cream cheese jalapeño and the ube pastry!

Smaller bakery in Stonestown, San Francisco Located in Stonestown, we stopped by this 85° Bakery to purchase an assortment of pastries to bring to an event this evening. I randomly chose a variety of pastries including: Spicy Sausage Jalapeño Cream Cheese Milk Tea Bun Taro Swirl Garlic Cheese Hawaiian Chicken Sugar Cream Cheese Brioche This location is much smaller from other 85° Bakeries. They've done away with the use of tongs. Now the pastries are already pre-packaged individually in cellophane wrap on the shelves so you can just grab your pastries and place them on your tray. In the past they packaged them in their clear plastic bags as you paid for them at the register counter. There weren't that many people this morning so i was in and out quickly. It turned out that we stayed in San Francisco longer than expected and didn't make it to Elk Grove for the event. Kids were happy when they saw the baked goods I took home ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Review #2865 read more
