    This is a small 85 C bakery/ cafe in the San Leandro Plaza shopping center. Actually, it looked bigger from the outside. I was there at around 12-Noon on a Friday. There seemed to be a fair amount of baked goods for sale. A fellow Yelper told me I should try their Mochi Egg Tarts, so I made it a point to get some of those. So I got- Mochi Egg Tarts, Strawberry cake, and Sugared Cream Cheese Brioche. Service was nice and polite. Checkout is quick with tap and pay. They have a few tables along the wall. So the Mochi Egg Tarts were very good. Creamy egg, flaky crust, and a dose of sweetness. However, the Sugared Cream Cheese Brioche wasn't sweet at all. I was a little surprised at how plain it was. The Strawberry cake was okay. I wanted to get a Chocolate Cream Roll. In San Leandro, the Sheng Kee Bakery is only 3 miles away. So I have the option of going there if I don't like whats available at 85 C.

    Ordered savory, sweet and cake trays to be picked up at 7:30am. Arrived at 7:45am and the order wasnt ready yet. A lot of pastries weren't out yet as they were just coming out hot and ready. The location of the bread seems to be facing the sun so some pastries with a fresh strawberries were getting condensation in the plastic bag that it was wrapped in. Wish there were more options out especially during the weekend Plenty or parking. Clean Friendly staff

    Our go to spot for my 85 degree coffee craving & pastries. This location is always changing the front entrance around but bc it is small it's not hard to navigate. I've noticed that the popular items such as Brioche loaf, Pineapple buns often has 2 shelves, so if those are your favorites, this location has plenty. Service is always pleasant & friendly, so this location is where I like to get my buns & 85 degree coffee. Pastries & Drinks: Brioche Bread-slight sugary crust on top w/a pillow soft bread. This loaf can last me a few days so this is budget friendly & a consistent purchase. Coffee Cruffin-a coffee cream infused inside this croissant muffin. My daughter enjoyed it with a nice coffee flavor, but I would just stick to my usual Brioche Bread. Mini Sponge Cakes (in a pack of 6) - for an airy & light lemon spofrom 85 degree this satisfies my mother in law, so you cant go wrong with this. I'm a loyal patron bc of the competitive price, quality of coffee drinks & service.

    I've been here a few times and they always had everything in stock! There are a tons of pastries and desserts that are tasty! I've also ordered 2 cakes from here: the mango crème brûlée & the red velvet! Both were good! I also like that they give candles, a HBD chocolate sign, and a plastic knife/serving utensils. There are a few tables inside to enjoy your drink/pastries. I haven't ordered any drinks from here but I do like the pastries! Free parking lot. Just beware that there are some homeless people around.

    First time I got the chocolate toast. I LOVE IT! It's thick and bot too sweet. SO GOOD!!!! I love the thickness and the texture. The coffee is strong! I got the coffee with no sugar and just boba. My only complaint is that they didn't give me much boba :( For a large size.. :(((( The cashiers are super nice and patient as I was figuring out the app and I got my birthday reward of getting 50% off a drink! :)

    Kind employees, very much appreciated their help choosing a cake. They provided candles, a small chocolate "happy birthday" decoration, and a serving knife. Will definitely get cakes again here!

    Have been a fan of 85C for many many years, and this location is always the most convenient for me. Always appreciate their milk tea with foam, and love their pastries. Not as good as Porto's in Socal, but a very solid Asian bakery. You can get like 7 pastries for about $18 ish. Pros: - post-covid everything is already individually wrapped, which I think helps with infection control (even if it does use a lot of plastic). - Lots of variety, and it changes frequently and they'll bring out "FRESH BREAD!" intermittently as they shout that haha - has a separate drink order kiosk now to help with congestion - wide variety of sweet and savory pastries - pretty reliable egg tarts - very efficient cashiers, I think most of the time if there's a long wait in line it's because a customer is not being efficient, not the staff. - Has a few tables to sit if you want to eat in - close to a lot of other establishments, so easy to go here before or after a meal etc. Cons: - not many! other than if you go too late in the day there can be less selection, so go earlier in the day if you can!

    Very quick service and we used coupons and the cashier was very helpful in walking us through the process. Outstanding bakery items.

    From savory to sweet. My delicious cravings are filled. Here's a brief review of my top selection from 85 Degrees Bakery Cafe (minus the drinks--I'll review them some other day). Mango Custard Bun. Slightly sweet with hints of tanginess from the tropical fruit. This bun tastes like a goodness pillow. Boroh Danish. Do you know what's going on in here? It's all the crispiness savory yummy. Croissant Crunch. More like Bye Bear Claws. Jumbo Guava Cheese Strudel. Porto's famous guava pastry wannabe? Love that parking is open in the plaza and free for patrons. There's almost never a wait line here. So, it's excellent. It's overall not-so-loud. Good for a first date.

    I love their assortment of breads, pastries and cakes. I decided to try their mocha coffee today and honestly, it wasn't that great. It just tasted like watered down coffee, no mocha taste, no sugar either. My husband got one of the sea salt coffees and that tasted way better. I love the more savory breads/pastries but they have this brioche loaf that is soooo yummy. Their garlic cheese bread is also really good and my daughters love the chocolate cake roll. The staff is always really friendly and helpful as well. The bakery is in a shopping plaza with tons of parking so that's a plus!

    "Light ice" but the cup is almost full

    The bakery is delicious, and the drinks are great, but the barista isn't. There's one girl in particular that doesn't respect "light ice". She fills the cup almost full of crushed ice and she shakes the coffee so much that it makes it foamy. Never had an issue with my order till now. On this occasion I asked for sea salt cream and it literally took me 5sips to finish the coffee. Now I'm stuck with ice and foam.

    3 spicy sausage bread, apple danish, taiwanese boro bao, mochi egg tart, regular egg tart

Hands down they have the best drinks, cookies, macarons, cakes, and now salt bread! I always come to get treats for my kid's teachers (for their birthdays, teacher appreciation week, just because, etc.). I've brought friends visiting the Bay Area to this bakery, which they have loved. Always Yours also has fun cup sleeve events, macaron classes and afternoon tea from time to time. We love supporting small businesses and this one is definitely worth supporting! P.S. with all these drink places popping up in the area...we still think the drinks at Always Yours not only taste better, but also are of higher quality.

We heard that there had been some long lines recently and that the bread can sell out fast, so he went ahead of me to get in line before they opened, but he said there actually wasn't a line this time. We went on a Sunday afternoon and got two each of the regular and chili oil scallion breads. Once I got to the cafe, I ordered the banana pudding matcha latte. We sat on the bench outside to eat our bread and noticed that it tasted just a *little* like it had been sitting out for a while. I wouldn't describe it as stale, it just didn't have as soft a texture as we expected. However, it tasted absolutely delicious. I'd recommend getting both flavors if you can. The chili oil one wasn't spicy, in my opinion, it just had a kick of chili flavor. The banana pudding matcha latte was a little less successful. The pudding was great, but it just sat on top of the drink. When I mixed it into the matcha, it still wasn't coming through very strong and the drink tasted almost entirely of matcha. It was disappointing because I love banana so much. I think I'd be better off just ordering the banana pudding in the future. I'd like to come back here on a Saturday to see if the bread is a bit fresher, and I'd order the banana pudding rather than the latte.

It's in a corner of a very cute gourmet food hall and had a good selection of goods left in mid-afternoon on a weekday. Service is also friendly and prompt. I had to get the kouign amann because I always get one wherever I can, and also picked up a plain croissant, currant scone, and panna cotta. The KA was decent; I would call this one a diet KA because they only put the sugar on one side so it was more like a brulee'd croissant. I also have to admit that, while this shaping is very attractive, the direction of the lamination makes eating this feel like shards in my mouth. However, flavor was excellent. The plain croissant is very plain. It's decent but I've had better. The scone and panna cotta, however, were delightful. Both had lovely soft textures and wonderful creamy flavors. The scone held up for two days and wasn't even a bit stale when I finally had it for breakfast. Highly recommend this tucked-away bakery in the Castro Valley!

Seven Hills Baking Co was my first stop as I haven't had sourdough since childhood. I got their classic sourdough loaf. Even though it wasn't warm anymore it was still amazing. It was quite hard to cut into with a serrated bread knife, which I'm not sure whether that's normal or abnormal for gluten sourdough. However, the inside was lovely and soft. Nice strong sour flavor, spongy dough that was almost moist (not at all dry). I want to note on the gluten free front that seven hills baking co offers a few items which they advertise to be gluten free. Though the ingredients may be gluten free, the items are baked in the same kitchen, the same oven, and then put side by side with the gluten in the display case. Furthermore I don't believe their ingredients are all certified gluten free. Therefore I do not recommend seven hills baking co for anybody with celiac disease. Do not buy your friend with a gluten allergy or celiac these items. There is most certainly cross contact.

Honestly probably one of the top 10 unique mocha's I have tried and it was delicious! I loved the burst of refreshing orange that complimented the chocolate.

My routine, fly into to Oakland, drive to Moussaka for lunch (rip the former chef/owner and restaurant), head 2 doors down to Zocalo for coffee on the ride home. If my flight was extra early and Moussaka was closed still, Zocalo was more than good enough to fit my food and coffee needs.
