I cannot say enough amazing things about Batter Up Bakery…read more I'm a wedding planner with over a decade of experience, and I have truly seen it all... but this was a first. Due to a major mistake on the venue's end, our couple's wedding cake was served to a different event the day before the wedding. Yes... the entire cake was gone. We were left without a cake for the bride and groom to cut on their wedding day, and with very little time to fix it. Enter Batter Up Bakery... and they absolutely saved the day. From the very first interaction, Samantha at the front counter was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful. Selena, the decorator, did an unbelievable job recreating the cake exactly as originally designed. And Jim, the owner who handled delivery, was professional, communicative, and ensured everything arrived perfectly. They stepped in quickly and created a replacement cake that looked identical to what the couple originally ordered. Not only was it visually perfect, but it was also delicious. The entire process was seamless and handled with such care. The most incredible part? The bride had no idea anything had gone wrong until after the wedding. Everything felt flawless, and that is exactly what you hope for as a planner. In all my years in the industry, I have never experienced customer service like this. Batter Up turned what could have been a disaster into a perfect moment. I will be recommending them to every single one of my future couples. Truly phenomenal service, talent, and professionalism.

Stopped by after a friend's recommendation. Once you walk in, you're met with the menu (handheld…read moreand posted on the wall) and the counter to order. Further in, there's bar seating and a couple tables. Most of the tables are outside in their patio. The space has a very modern feel with a wine and draft beer list along with coffee bar options. On a Friday lunch rush (11:30am), there were quite a bit of people already sitting and eating. I ordered the hatch chile honey chicken sandwich ($16.32 after tax). Holy smokes, it was delicious! The baked pretzel bun was unlike any I've had before. Buttery and pillowy on the inside and a crisp exterior. The chicken was perfectly cooked and paired well with the chili honey, which was perfectly balanced without being too sweet or too spicy. The grilled onions added extra sweetness and richness that contrasted nicely with the fresh tomato, avocado, and lettuce. Together, it made the perfect sandwich! Definitely a spot worth checking out. The food tasted high quality, and I'll absolutely stop by again when I'm back in town.

Goat & Vine (Satellite Café) - Morning Bun Review…read more Goat & Vine continues to expand its footprint beyond its flagship The Goat and Vine location, and this newer café concept clearly aims to deliver a more elevated, bespoke pastry experience. From a presentation standpoint, it succeeds. The space is large, visually polished, and immediately inviting--everything you'd expect from a brand building on a strong local reputation. The morning bun itself is visually stunning. Well-shaped, evenly baked, and glossy with promise--it looks like a 5 before the first bite. But execution tells a different story. A proper morning bun should channel the DNA of a croissant: light, airy, delicately layered, with just enough exterior resistance to give way under minimal pressure. This one missed that mark. The outer ring was noticeably tough--requiring more force than expected, even with a knife. In truth, a well-executed morning bun should yield easily with the edge of a fork, not demand effort to cut through. Flavor delivery was equally uneven. The cinnamon--presumably a core element--was very mild, almost hesitant. A morning bun doesn't need to be a cinnamon roll, but it should introduce that warmth immediately, within the first bite. Here, it lagged. More notably, the orange essence appeared only at the very center, creating a disconnect in the experience. Flavor should be intentional and consistent. If orange is part of the profile, it should be present throughout--not hidden as a surprise note at the core. The same applies to any premium pastry: flavors should announce themselves clearly and early, drawing you into the experience, not making you search for them. To their credit, the internal structure showed glimpses of what could be--a buttery, layered crumb that hinted at proper technique. But the balance between texture and flavor never fully came together. This is a case where strong presentation and solid fundamentals elevate expectations, but the final execution doesn't quite deliver on them. Final Rating: 3.5 / 5 A beautiful pastry with promising structure, but held back by toughness and inconsistent flavor distribution. With refinement--particularly in texture and flavor clarity--this could easily become a standout offering.

They still had a great selection of fresh baked goods, which isn't always the case that close to closing time. The store was super clean, and the service was amazing.

Love 85deg cafe and bakery. Their baked goods are always soft, delicious and made to perfection…read more They have a good mix of sweet and savory options from breads, to cakes, a variety of desserts. You pay for your order in the line dedicated for these desserts. If you're looking for a milk tea, slushie or anything from their cafe, you can order on the touchscreen. Very easy and straightforward. In terms of ambiance, it's somewhat loud as it's open area with the bakery area. It's not overly loud but not somewhere to study either. They have music playing in the background so it's nice and upbeat while you enjoy your baked good or drink.

This place is my go-to when I need a little edible joy--specifically in the form of their fresh baked cinnamon roll. Pro tip: do not, under any circumstances, skip having them warm it up. Cold cinnamon roll? We don't live like that. I'm also a loyal fan of their turkey pesto panini--mine comes with a very important customization: no onions, but absolutely yes to everything else. Balance is key. The shop itself is small, but that's part of the charm. It's got that cozy, hometown feel where the staff is genuinely friendly (not the forced "have a nice day" kind, but the real deal), and somehow even the customers seem to be in a good mood. We usually grab a seat outside, soak up the sunshine, and just enjoy the vibe. It's one of those rare spots that's not just good once--it's consistently good. Great food, great people, great energy. Honestly, it's hard to leave without already planning your next visit.

It's definitely the kind of place where you want to try more than one thing. The pastries we tried were really good--light, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can tell they put care into the quality and presentation. The shop itself was clean and had a nice welcoming atmosphere which made it a pleasant place to stop by. Overall it's a great bakery if you're looking for fresh pastries or a dessert while in Temecula. Definitely a spot I'd come back to again to try more of their desserts.

The drink had toffee bits which was a lovely surprise! Sweetness was pretty mellow despite the toffee bits, which I appreciated. Price was $6.85, size was 12oz. - Ham & Cheese Croissant: 5/5 this came out straight from the oven. It was soft, buttery, delicious, and the ham was tender! My toddler devoured it! Price was $9.00. - Salted Brown Butter Vanilla Scone: 3/5 a bit too sweet for my liking but when I scraped away the layer of the glaze, the scone itself was quite delicious, soft, and had a good chew to it! Price was $6.95. This was a very cute spot with ample seating. You can definitely come here and bring a book or do some work. Service was fast and the ladies helping me had cute handwritten messages on the lids of our lattes :). Overall I will give this spot a 4.5/5!
