So I've been here a few times now. In the past, I've tried their coffee, avocado toast (modified to be vegan), some of their vegan pastries, and an Italian soda. This most recent visit we had their vegan avocado cookies but I didn't love it. I'm not sure if it was too sweet or too salty. It just tasted a bit off. My kids both had a couple bites and didn't want anymore, which is odd for them to not eat sweets. We also had a tropical sunrise smoothie, which I tried and it was good. One of my daughter's liked hers and the other was picky and said it tasted different. Hubby and I ordered lattes with oat milk. Unfortunately, the Mexican mocha powder mix contains dairy since they use the LA Abuelita Brand of mix (owned by Nestle and not the true OG Mexican chocolate, check out Ibarra instead). So we ended up with vanilla and hazelnut lattes instead with oat milk. We took our goodies to go and service was friendly and quick. In the past, I recall more vegan pastries so I'm a bit disappointed that the only option was a cookie. Anyway, I would likely return if I'm meeting up with friends or in the area for a drink, but wishing they had more vegan friendly options. Plenty of seating inside. The door was a little funky to open/close. Bathrooms inside. Street parking or free parking in the lot across the street from the gem society. Check the website for hours because it seems Fallbrook has funky hours compared to typical businesses. read more

Good coffee. I had a dirty chai latte, delicious. Lots of seating with cute decor. Service is great. Staff is always friendly. Parking: street parking, not always available, but you can park at the library and walk 1 block. Good food. Great croissants! read more

Great bakery cafe on a really cute street! I got the coconut lime scone, which was pretty good and I'm not a huge scone person. I also got the cappuccino which was perfect. The woman at the register was very friendly and welcoming. The cafe is super spacious and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I'm here waiting for a wedding to start and this was perfect for me to kill some time and enjoy a nice cafe in a new area~ read more

Being a local, I decided to come here several times before making a review... This place is such a hit or miss. Food wise - I think I've been impressed maybe once or twice. Multiple times my food has been cold or just tastes 'meh.' I think if the service was great, I could be a little more forgiving about the food, but when your cold meal is served to you by someone with an even colder personality, it really makes me question why I keep coming back. I will say that their baked goods are great, so that's mostly why I return (and because there are limited cafe spots in Fallbrook). read more

10/20/24 Overview: Wonderful service, cute small-town atmosphere, yummy drinks and baked goods, affordable prices ---- They are usually closed on Sundays but was open this past Sunday during the Fallbrook Harvest Faire! I ordered the maple pecan spiced chai latte ($5.50) which was delicious, a little sweet but great flavor! I also had a raspberry pistachio scone ($3.50) which when well with my drink. It would have tasted even better if it was warmed up (I was in a rush so I'm not sure if they have the option to rebake/microwave it for you) Service was really friendly and helpful, especially since I don't really go to coffee shops often, they were great in guiding me on what and how to order. My only recommendation is that it would be great if they had their prices listed for the rest of their drink items and for all of their food and baked goods. Overall, this is a cute little spot to enjoy a tasty drink and a baked good! I'd come back if I'm ever back in town! read more

Their scones are wonderful! I've never had one this good, not dry at all. Flavor is top notch. Goes great with their iced coffee. Their cookies are normally great also but there have been 2 times I've had older tasting ones that weren't as fresh as before. Kinda let down but willing to try again. read more

Cute decor, fast and friendly service, delicious food and drinks...this place has it all! What a wonderful addition to Fallbrook. I enjoyed their spinach and cheese croissant sandwich with some Tapatio. The croissant even on its own was extremely delicious -- buttery, flakey, fluffy. The egg was good quality and had plenty of spinach. I really enjoyed my iced hazelnut latte with oat milk, and the tumeric matcha tastes great as well. You can tell they use good quality matcha. Their strawberry peach smoothie was also killer!! I love that they also have small business vendors' items inside. I bought a pair of earrings and they are to die for. I'm excited to come back!! read more

This bakery makes the best best everything I have never had a better muffin a better croissant a better cookie a better anything !.. I liked it so much that I had to place a order for six muffins just so I was stocked up for a little because you never know if they're going to have them as they sell out quick read more

It was my first time in today and I got the monkey bread, everything bagel with cream cheese, and vanilla latte. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend checking out this cute spot on Main Street. Service was great and fast. Will definitely be back to try more yummies. read more

It was our first time checking this place out and we highly recommend it! We will definitely be back. The people that work there seem very nice. Food came out hot and fresh and it was so tasty. We loved our iced coffees and are looking forward to trying some others in the near future. They have a great menu with lots of varieties. Something for everyone. They also offer some lunch items. The only thing that I would say is that they need to keep some more items on hand. It seems that they were sold out of a lot of things which was a bummer but I also take that as a good sign that those items are really good and that they are also very busy and sell out quickly! If you haven't been, definitely stop by and check them out! read more

This place never disappoints. You can never go wrong with a pastry or a breakfast sandwich. Great service.

Amazing baked goods, great service, and just fun to chat, relax, eat and enjoy coffee!

Amazingly good cinnamon roll this morning!!! Love the whole vibe of this cute adorable place too, just lovely!

This is a cute little place. I only wish they had more vegan options. They typically have one gf/vegan torte (too sweet) and one kind of cookie. Today there was only a cookie. Not even options for plain bread. I keep coming back, hoping for more options, but no luck. read more

I enjoyed it a lot! I had a mexican mocha and jalapeño quiche. Good service and it felt natural to just sit and enjoy my food for a while. Very genuine and local vibe. read more

Been a long time since we had an excellent bakery (other than the Panaderia but that's a whole different thing) in fallbrook and I can't believe it took me so long to find it. But I'm glad I did as I'm a regular now. Their pastries/bread are delish, and their coffee is good enough for any coffee snob. Def worth going out of the way for any day. read more

The owner is amazing, kind and skilled!! Started purchasing her fabulous carrot cake slices at another location in Fallbrook. This storefront has been many things over the years. So happy she's set down roots and provided all the tasty treats. Everything is fresh! Beet juice in the cold counter is to die for. Appreciate all of the local artisan gifts that are sold on the wall and island. Can't wait to go back for bottomless mimosas! read more

Wanted something healthy this morning so stopped at Bakin' It Up in Downtown Fallbrook. Had the smashed avocado bowl with scrambled eggs, spinach and feta on a bed of arugula with a delicious light vinaigrette, so amazingly good! They have an array of freshly baked goods and other items on their menu to consider as well. Very friendly people, love this place! read more

I've just started coming here the last 2 weeks but am fully in love! In my opinion it's just what Fallbrook needed. Big huge fan of the sourdough bagels, the cinnamon rolls are the BEST I've ever had, and now they have brunch! We've tried the yummy egg sandwiches, the PB banana protein waffle, and the VEGGIE MEATBALLS! Amazing! Also the best OJ I've ever had. I'm not a juice fan but I stole my sons whole glass. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you in their cozy dining area. (Hassle free and SUPER quick wait times). There's also a kids area where they can safely play and leave you to chat and sip on cold brew or a yummy grapefruit mimosa read more

Fallbrook needed a place like this. There's nothing else like it in this town. Wish you were open on Sunday's too.

Just what I needed! The coffee flight hit the spot. I was particularly impressed with their house-made honey lavender. It was fragrant and tasted great. The chocolate croissant was also very good, buttery and delicious. This was a great place to sip some coffee and do a little reading. It would make a great study spot too, as it was comfortable and a great atmosphere. read more

Heck yea I recommend this place. The food is excellent. They have options for vegan and gluten free which is fantastic for a bakery. The environment is intimate and warm. I especially love the bagels, rolls, cupcakes, cookies, ham and cheese croissants, ummmmm I love it all. For the holidays you can order pies and desserts, dinner rolls and other items good for large groups. They also rent the space out for special events. They serve beer and wine. Love this place. :) read more

I had a craving for a cinnamon roll and they have the best ! The seating area is beautiful, my toddler loved the butter croissant .

Excellent coffee drinks! Cute atmosphere on the downtown Fallbrook street. Nice place to grab a dessert and walk the main street!

Since Bakin' it up has been open we've been coming in religiously every Saturday I am not working...which amounts to 5 or 6 times thus far! It's been nice getting to know the collective lady owners...so far we've met Kelly and Johanna and they are top notch ladies! Everything we've tried here has been a hit but of course we have our favorites: for example the Oatmeal Toffee Coconut Cookie and the Sourdoughs! The atmosphere is quaint and gives an at home feeling! We love dining in and seeing other locals but it's also nice to see people from out of our town visiting from elsewhere! This is what fallbrook was needing to give the downtown area a more if a fresh feeling! Minded they are only open Friday's and Saturday's and just recently opened for Sunday brunch! There hours are from 0800-1400 (8am-2pm) so plan accordingly. Parking is street parking only. But plenty of parking in front or around the business. Ask to meet Kelly or Johanna! read more
