    Great bakery and lunch spot. Delicious sandwiches and salads. I ordered the Aspen which has a ton of turkey, avocado, and a slaw-esque mix of lettuce and red onions. It's on tasty cranberry bread. The sandwich is filling but the bread is smaller and thinner than what some might expect but it's packing a lot between the slices. Tuscany for the S.O. He said it was meh. Sandwiches came with a small potato salad that we both loved, and a pickle. We also got a Mirage salad which was delicious and I love that it includes chicken. The dressing came on the side and it's the perfect raspberry vinaigrette. It came with a slice of the cranberry bread, cut in half. Also got 2 cookies - ginger and oatmeal. The bread and pastries all look amazing. Surprisingly I didn't love the cookies as much as I hoped. Still good but not something I'd get again. Overall I really enjoyed the food here. Service is great - nice and friendly.

    Chicken Caesar salad

    I ordered a chicken Caesar salad from Aspen Bakery. As I was eating I saw something moving. There was a live bug in my salad.

    Menu

    While the food at Aspen Mills Bakery & Cafe is tasty, I can no longer support this establishment in 2026 due to their use of an offensive slur on their menu. Specifically, their sandwich board features a "dark Squaw bread" on the Prime-Cut sandwich. The term used is a well-documented ethnic and sexual slur against Indigenous women that has been widely removed from public landmarks and brand names across the country. I personally notified management about this around Christmas time, hoping it was an oversight they would want to correct. Unfortunately, they have done nothing to remove the slur or update their signage. It is disappointing to see a local business continue to use derogatory language even after being informed of its harmful impact. Great sandwiches do not excuse the use of hateful terminology. Please show some integrity; Integrity-do what's right when no one is looking

    Newporter Lunchbox Online

    Aspen Mills is a lunchtime fave of mine! I like to order ahead of time save myself some time. The Newporter lunchbox includes the sandwich, a pickle, cookie, and potato salad all for a reasonable price. The only con is sometimes there is a long wait to order/pay for food because the customers like to play 21 questions with the cashiers about items already listed on the menu. It would be nice if someone can assist in checking out when the line is long.

    Always and nice drop in, locals bakery kind of place. YELP SHORT ANSWER: Yes, not large, a few tables inside and limited outdoor seating but the bakery items are excellent. Location: lots of parking, seasonally a Cars and Coffee location which is fun. Menu: very limited but bran muffins are their thing and the drip coffee is pretty good. Quality: pretty okay, nothing super special other than very consistent here. Old School. Waitstaff: could be friendlier as owners if they don't know you but part of the charm I guess. Overall Value: good enough but not inexpensive. I've been here maybe 10 times nothing negative to say. TIP: Cars and Coffee seasonally on Saturday morning 7-9am + loose hours but fun!

    Thanks for reaching out. Sorry for the delay, we don’t check Yelp very often. We mostly likely can do this order. I would need the exact address. We don’t decorate the cookies, but we could put a card with the delivery. Please call us at (760)…

    We’ll reopen - just keep running into setbacks outside of our control. Thanks for your concern. We’ll make sure to get the word out when we’re back up.

    Gluten free options?

    We have two gluten-free bread options: multi-grain and sourdough. We bake those every Thursday night and sell them Fridays and Saturdays. We keep a few extra loaves fresh-frozen to sell the rest of the week and to use for sandwiches. We also have…

The staff was top notch. We called to let them know we were on the way, and they gave us clear directions to their location in the strip mall (on the back side--FYI). She also told us our cake was stunning and ready for pickup. She was so kind and careful when handing it over, and even gave step-by-step instructions on getting it home safely and storing it. I highly recommend this place if you want to trust your vision to a company that truly cares about making your cake as beautiful as possible!

We went in "just to look" (famous last words) and walked out with 3 cupcakes: vanilla bean, red velvet, and salted caramel toffee... plus a mocha tres leches parfait because self-control is seasonal and clearly out of stock!! Every single bite was the kind of good that makes you close your eyes mid-chew and ignore whoever's talking to you. But let's discuss the real star: the frosting!!! I was fully prepared for standard whipped cream or buttercream vibes, and instead got this cloud-like, silky situation that tasted rich but somehow light enough to justify eating an entire cupcake without emotional consequences. Tiffany herself let me in on the secret.... it's Italian meringue buttercream. So basically, classy buttercream that went to finishing school. Tiffany is also an absolute gem... warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what she's baking up. You can taste the love (and the butter, but mostly the love)!!! If you're in the desert and your sweet tooth starts whispering reckless ideas, listen to it. And definitely support this family-owned local spot. We'll be back for "research purposes" and to satisfy our sweet tooth!!

It was cold out, but I still requested to sit outside. They were short a server and still graciously accommodated my request, which I truly appreciated.

I skipped the syrup because honestly, they didn't need it. Anything extra would've taken away from how good they already were. And the bacon? Crispy to perfection. With tip, it came out to $38.02. I can't speak to the full menu since I only tried the beignets and bacon, but based on that alone, I would absolutely recommend this place. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. Even the patrons were lovely...smiling and wishing me a good morning as they passed my table. It's quiet on Sunday mornings, which makes it perfect if you're dining alone with a good book.

Everything I sent was soft pastel buttercream, and I was hoping for something in softer pastel instead. As the photos show, the cake I received went in a very different direction: a bright greenish printed edible-image wrap with dark borders and a lot of color and detail on top. It's clearly a lot of work, and I can see the effort in it, it just wasn't the calmer look I'd asked for, and it read as much busier than I expected. The topper also arrived leaning to one side with a jagged cut and unfinished back, which was a little disappointing for a centerpiece. In fairness, Dorothy was prompt and polite throughout, and responded kindly when I shared my feedback. She explained she'd taken a more whimsical interpretation of the references and offered 10% off a future order. I appreciated the gesture, though it didn't quite address a piece that didn't match the brief. I've attached my references and the cake I received. For the price and the lead time, I'd hoped for something a little closer to what I sent, so I don't think I'd order again, but I wish her well.
