ham sandwich with peppers
Morgan A.

Yum, yum, yum! My family has been eating at Sweet Affair for years which makes it such a treat whenever I'm in town now. A few quick notes before i get into this review any further. 1. If you get the Turkey Cranberry sandwich add sprouts for a dollar extra...trust me 2. They do not take orders over the phone! Go into the store or place your order ahead of time online. The inside is covered in nostalgic old school signs and knick knacks it's super neat. They have a small market type area with local goods, jams, pastas and honeys. The front display cases are full of delicious pastries and treats. The cookies are killer & the carrot cake slices are super moist with cream cheese frosting that isn't too sweet. The bread here is the BEST! I typically get the Turkey Cranberry (added sprouts) on the multigrain bread that's rolled in sunflower seeds. It is seriously SO good. Today I was feeling like something new and tried the Ham sandwich with added green peppers and pickles on a french roll. The french roll was so soft and fresh with a nice crust. Much love for Sweet Affair!

Best bakery in the East Bay. We found this because it's close to our swim academy and I have ordered their mini cupcakes for my kids' birthday parties for the past few years from this business. If you pay cash you can avoid their extra fee. Delicious baked goods and cupcakes. Their cinnamon sugar loaf is really yummy but bad for your waistline, as is all the stuff at the bakery, to be honest. Service is always nice and helpful. Their new dining area in the back is so nice. I've had their salads and sandwiches also which are delicious.

Very spacious and more seating area. Very clean!

I have been coming here since they opened and I honestly love everything about this place! When you walk in, the staff is so friendly and greets you right away. The scent of all their baked goods makes you feel all warm and fuzzy and you can't help but be drawn in. They have a gorgeous display of all their treats, and i love how it's baked fresh daily. Their bread is way better than any store-brand you could get and their cinnamon pillow is a MUST try! I've had their breakfast sandwich, regular sandwich and their salads. It's so hard to pick just one favorite. I will say that their Chinese Chicken Salad is my all time favorite. And I don't even like salads that much. But I will eat it over and over and over again. Maryann is amazing, she is so sweet and is always a pleasure talking to. I love that she remembers me and my go-to orders since I'm there so much lol.

This is one of my favorite sandwich shops in Walnut Creek. The size of their foods can be eaten for lunch and dinner. My favorite salad with them is the Chinese Chiken salad, so simple yet so good. The service is excellent as the people that work there are always nice and respectful. Definitely would go back again.

Fresh cookies daily!

It is definitely on the pricier side, which is really the only thing that held it back for me. I don't think I'd drive across town just to come here, but if you're already in the plaza and need something quick and satisfying, it's a solid choice.

Welp Yelp, my familiarity with Genova's is based upon my long and well-established history with the…read moreG-Supernova in my hometown (Oakland), which makes me a little snobby in the sammich realm. Don't get me wrong, the Genova's in the big (little) Dub Cee does what it can to keep up and turns out some pretty decent sandwiches. It has all the trademark imported knickknacks (biscotti, multicolored taffy in well-worn bins, boxed panettone, etc.) as well as traditional staples like wine, fresh pasta and the famed Genova's brand boxed frozen ravioli for you to take home and spoil your family with in a variety of flavors like artichoke, mushroom and even pumpkin. But it lacks soul. It lacks spirit. It doesn't have any of the flavor that the Genova's in Oakland had and each sandwich churned out is indicative of that. It's just not that good. And for a sandwich you have to wait a mighty long time for, it better be good. Real good. So, I've come to terms with the fact that I don't have a Genova's left to go to and that's okay. Sometimes it's better to have loved and lost (a sandwich) than never to have loved at all.

Now...Now I see why the Matt Cain is one of the more popular sandwiches…read more.. Me and my buddy ordered some sammies for our weekly video-game day. If you live in the Bay Area, you already know. Ike's sandwiches always delivers. I've never had a bad sandwich but personally my favorite sandwich is usually the Madison Bumgarner. It always scratches my itch for BBQ. However I recently decided to try the famous Mat Cain sandwich. I think I might have a new favorite sandwich now... The Mat Cain is heavy protein with Beef, Salami and Turkey. I think ultimately it's more Beef forward but the Salami and Godfather sauce really evolve the sandwich. If you love prime rib. Order this sandwich. If you are a fan of mustard. Order this sandwich. If you are a long time fan of Ikes and have yet to try the Mat Cain...ORDER THIS SANDWICH. Good lord is tasty. The Godfather sauce is so addicting. You think it's just a fancy mustard but then the next second you think that it's actually a horseradish. I really think the horseradish radish flavor is such a genius idea because it pairs so well with the Beef. Just like the mustard pairs so well with the Salami. Theres just so many layers to this sandwich. God. The more I talk about this. The more I just want to order this again.

Fast service and such a variety!!! Good meat to bread ratio! I did the classic Matt Cain. Very…read moregood- a bit too saucy for me so I would ask for light sauce next time but very good!

Parking can be a bit tricky since it's in a small residential area. Not too far from downtown but so worth the extra mile, I will 100% be back! RECS: + Maple sea salt latte ($8.75/16oz) was to die for! Coffee was smooth, flavors were great, and the cream top was like a literal cloud. I don't usually prefer oat milk but you can't even tell - so so good! + Mushroom melt bagel ($6.75/half) was perfect with the juiciest oyster mushrooms, bits of melted vegan cheese, and homemade pesto

Espresso was a little on the bitter side and I wonder if it would have paired better with one of their seasonal drinks. The ginger shot was exceptional and I could have drank a whole 8 ounce glass. The chia pudding was pretty good. The granola on top was a bit soggy from being added in advance which gave it an unpleasant texture. The cali bagel was great but there was no chimichurri! That was the main reason I ordered the hay bagel in particular. When I went there this morning, I also noticed the strawberry and pineapple flavors for ice cream. I came back in the afternoon and got a swirled cone. It was soooooo good. I can't wait to see what other flavors they offer in the future!
