I had been hearing about Cream Pan for a while, and after my mom highly recommended it, I knew I had to give it a try. I ordered the strawberry cream croissant, and it was absolutely amazing. It was light, airy, and not overly sweet, which I really appreciated. The pastry itself was perfectly flaky and buttery every bite was delicious. I can definitely see why this place is such a big hit! I also tried the iced condensed coffee. It was definitely strong, but also incredibly creamy with just the right amount of sweetness. It paired perfectly with the croissant. Another plus is that they have plenty of parking and lots of seating, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a coffee and dessert. If you're looking for a delicious pastry and a good cup of coffee, this is a wonderful little spot to check out. read more

Cream Pan is a popular Japanese bakery with its flagship location in Tustin. This newer Cream Pan Lomita location opened in 2023 and I have been coming here from time to time. Few key notes: * There's a small free private parking lot and it is almost never 100% full even during busy hours. * While the bakery closes at 7 PM, come before lunch hours to get the full selection of baked goods and refrigerated sandwich options; otherwise, many of these items sell out before closing time. * Plenty of indoor tables, but no outdoor seating. * S-tier items: strawberry croissant, sticky bun, steamed pork bun. * A-tier items: half turkey avocado sandwich, pork katsu sandwich box. * B-tier items: almond croissant, drip coffee. This is a nice grab-and-go spot for anyone who is looking for a quick bite and quality baked goods. Personally, this is not an ideal first-date spot or a place for really good coffee - stick with places like Corridor Flow just few blocks away. read more

First timer at Cream Pan and loved trying the pastries here! There was a big parking lot and plenty of seating inside. There was a variety of pastry options. We got the: - Butter Croissant-3/5 it was a little dry and not amazing compared to other the croissants - 5/5 Strawberry custard croissant was fluffy and filled with a lot of custard. Never had a pastry like this one. Also very aesthetic pleasing to take pictures with haha - 4/5 Strawberry Banana croissant was a long pastry with nutella on it too. I prefer the og strawberry one - 4/5 Apple croissant tasted like an apple pie but it was really sweet - 10/5 Blueberry Croissant was ridiculously good, would comeback just for this one. Our trip consisted of so many carbs but it was well worth it. Love the variety and also that it's a Japanese bakery! Would come back forsure just for the blueberry croissant, it was so addicting we got more to-go. Also they have restrooms inside too. read more

If you're looking for a well supplied bakery in Lomita, this is your place to go. What you'll find here is a really nice, and wide-spanning selection of bakery items. Plus, you can order ahead if you desire, and get a small selection of things like sandwiches and salads. They also have a periodic offering of six pieces of sushi in a packet in their forward, refrigeration section. So, you can always find something really tasty eat. In terms of drinks, they have all of the things you would expect: coffee, soft drinks, even some lattes and drinks along those lines. It's really a great place to grab that morning or afternoon snack and drink. This is a super clean business. The moment you walk in, you'll notice that it's very open, airy, and well-maintained. They have a lot of seating in this business. They have a number of tables in the main interior space, plus some tables down the side of the bakery area. They also have some counter space. So, you should always be able to find a seat. Located right on Narbornne Ave. this business is easy to find. Generally, you can park right in front. Plus, there's a lot of parking around the area so that should never be a problem. Overall, if you want a really tasty bakery item, a nice snack, a quick latte or caffeine orientated pick me up, this is a great place to go. You can sit back solo or with a friend or family member, have a nice conversation, and enjoy your day. read more

Cream Pan - Fruit tart and Matcha Cake for a peaceful and yummy Sunday afternoon. - Bakeries Near Me - Lomita, California

This location has plenty of seating & parking. We got the 14 strawberry croissants which are prepackaged. We took the croissants to a restaurant to enjoy with friends after dinner. There were only 13 in the pack which disappointed me. I didn't think to confirm the number of croissants in the package and didn't want to bother with a phone call or anything. One less strawberry croissant for one of us so made us sad... If you purchase any prepackaged items, be sure to check and confirm before you leave. "Buyer be ware". read more

Strawberry croissants are a must. Has a good balance of custard, fresh sliced strawberries and croissant. The ambiance is nice and clean and "cafe-like". The service is okay, a little inefficient for me. They help one customer at a time and if you cut the bakery line to go straight to the register, they won't be afraid to call you out. read more

Fairly large bakery offering a wide variety of French- and Asian-style breads and prepared foods. There's plenty of seating, though not quite as much as 85°C Bakery. Most of the pastries are excellent and clearly made with high-quality ingredients--think arabiki sausages, matcha, and seasonal berries. Just be aware that some of the more gourmet items (like the matcha cookies) can run up to around $8. The coffee is also very good and can be customized to taste; in a very Japanese style, it leans slightly bitter rather than sweet. These baked goods are popular locally, and you'll even find some of them stocked at Nijiya. Service is about average. The staff seems focused on keeping the line moving, so there isn't much interaction, and when I asked a simple question like whether something was made in-house, the clerk didn't know. That said, they do offer some unique Cream Pan-only items, including curries and salads, which are definitely worth trying. read more

First time coming here. I wanted to try their egg sandwich and ended up loving it! 10/10 !! Keep in mind they advertise they do not put any conservatives in their breads so they must be consumed within 2 days. I also got their vanilla cafe latte and it was 10/10 2 sandwiches , 2 coffees and a strawberry croissant at $25 ?!?! I'm sold. Iced Caramel mocha latte - 10/10 Service was great. The bakery is huge, I've never seen one like it. There is plenty of seating space. Will be coming back to try more of their stuff! read more

Been a big fan of this bakery since a couple of years ago, and glad they've opened up additional locations. Sad that all of them are far from me LOL Q_Q but whatcha gonna do. I'd love it if they opened something in the Cerritos area...Please... Quality of the items here are as good as their original location in Tustin. I actually tried visiting this location on time during a weeknight and they were completely sold out and closed early. Good for them, but bummer for me! I had similar issues at their Tustin location. If you want access to their entire selection make sure to come early. If I'm out and about in the morning nearby them I'll typically try to squeeze a stop by their store. Came on a Friday early afternoon, and they were already out of the chicken curry pan, but I gave them a call before stopping by (since I was in Torrance anyway) to ask if they had any curry bread left and the worker said they had a couple of beef ones left although she couldn't guarantee they'd still be in stock when I arrived. Luckily they were! I also got two pork buns (high recommend, they are soft and fluffy and juicy and delicious), an azuki cream (for the husband, he likes it but I think it's just fine but I'm not a massive red bean fan), and a boston cream (personally I prefer the one at Hamada-ya more as their's is more airy while this one's more heavy?). There was basically no wait and I was serviced promptly. Store was clean and orderly. Will definitely be back whenever I'm in the area! read more

Cream Pan's Strawberry Croissant is nostalgia in pastry form ..think a gourmet Pop-Tart or an elevated Pillsbury strudel. Each bite is light, flaky, and filled with velvety cream. Only wish? A few more strawberries to complete perfection. Food: 4/5 - A dream selection of pastries, breads, sandwiches, rice dishes, donuts, and desserts. Everything looks (and tastes) freshly made with care. Service: 4/5 - Fast, friendly, and efficient, even during the morning rush. Ambience: 4/5 - Spacious interior with plenty of seating, perfect for a chill breakfast stop or casual meet-up. Parking: 3/5 - The lot fills up fast, so street parking is your best bet during peak hours. Props to founder Yoshinori Inada, who opened Cream Pan back in 2002 and continues to bake his way into SoCal food history.

Gotta say, this is hands down The BEST bakery in town. My wife and I discovered this gem on our way home from dropping off our boys in school. There are soo many delicious breakfast goodies and French rolls to take home. We always get the ham and cheese croissant. It's an absolute MUST if you like croissants. The bread is so fluffy and the ham and cheese is super delicious. We always get 2 for each because it's that good. One is definitely not enough and these are not the sharing type. Our Lattes are always on point. There's this Asian gentleman barista who's super nice and puts designs on the lattes. Dude knows what he's doing on the Latte machine. He's Amazing!!!!! Keep up the excellent work. The raisin and cream pastry is always bomb!!! The custard/flan is highly addictive. It's perfect! All the pastries and cakes look amazing. Theres never really a line like at Starbucks which is great and the customer service is really nice and courteous as well. Overall, my wife and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this gem if your ever in Lomita and crave some delicious coffee and a pastry. They have a lot of different types of food and drinks here as well. Give them a try! You won't be disappointed or dissatisfied. The ambiance is perfect to do work and just chill for a bit. read more

Strawberry croissants and strawberry shortcake!! Yum so good. We bought the shortcake for my dad's birthday. The 4.5 inch cake was so cute and perfect. The cake was so light and fluffy and wasn't sweet at all. The 4.5 inch cake was $25. If you have older parents who don't like sweets, this cake would be perfect for a birthday or celebration. Note they do not have candles. Downside is parking. It's pretty bad but you can circle and find street parking pretty easily. If there is a line it moves pretty fast. read more

Cream Pan - 4.5 inch strawberry shortcake - Bakeries Near Me - Lomita, California

Food and treats are amazing. The facility is clean. Poor customer service!! Staff can sometimes be moody and rude. Just today I went and noticed one of the staff wearing a white shirt with red splatter, the pro un alive-ing of Charlie Kirk. I thought it was distasteful as it celebrates the loss of a person and a father. No crime should be celebrated, even under the umbrella of freedom of speech. They should do that in their own time. Owners please keep an eye out for your staff. Put in place good supervisors that embrace professionalism and respect for your patrons. read more

I have been here many time when I am the Torrance area. I usually would get a bag of fresh sliced bread, the egg salad sandwich and the strawberry croissant. Everything was good here. Fresh and nicely made. Plenty of parking. They offer a nice indoor area for dine in. Friendly service. read more

This place is my favorite bakery in this area, I like that they make the bread fresh daily and once they sell out, they normally don't make any more to prevent waste. But the taste is so good even though it is a little bit pricey for me, but I compared it to 85C it's around the same price range. My favorite is their melon bread and their custard bread. They're very well known for their strawberry custard pastry dessert. I always bring them to parties and it is a crowd favorite. Normally there is a long line, but it moves pretty quickly. There's two cashiers. When I see other customers around me, I see that they also order the curry bread so I might try that next time. But I love coming here. They have very nice spacious area for people that wanna sit down and eat inside. read more

Been wanting to come here especially to try their signature Strawberry Croissant. The flaky delicate layers with light custard and fresh strawberries are definitely addicting. We ordered a half dozen to bring home to share and we were told we will most likely have more than one each. They were right! The place is much larger than it appears from the exterior. Once inside, lots of seating and many desserts in the glass cases and loaves of Japanese bread! I also had to try the delicious Egg Sando which I enjoyed in Japan. So often, the pastries are great and the coffee is an afterthought. Here the coffee was strong and a perfect complement to the pastries. There was too many choices, so we will definitely be back to try other sweet treats, as well as, the savory lunch choices. Parking in the lot. read more

I've been to the Cream Pan in the OC & just visited this one today. This is definitely new, and has sooo much more space. It has a couple tables to sit at, but I can see them getting super busy. They also have a sign that parking is limited to 60 minutes, and tables have a limited amount of time too. The pastries & desserts are SOOOO good. I tried the orange pastry (forgot name lol), creme puff, and a mango cake slice. My favorite out of the 3 was the creme puff, then mango slice, and finally the orange pastry. All SUPER good though. The ambience is super nice, open, newly renovated, I will definitely come back! read more

Finally made it to Cream Pan after seeing it all over my social media as the spot for the best egg sando and it did not disappoint! Their selection is incredible, with options ranging from sweet to savory, so there's truly something for everyone. I sampled a few of their most popular items. While prices can be a bit on the higher side, the exceptional flavor, freshness, and attention to detail make it worth every penny. I also appreciated their efficient system. There is one line, your picks served on a tray, and a smooth flow to the register. It does get busy on weekends, so a little patience goes a long way. Everything I tried was absolutely delicious, and my vanilla latte was the perfect complement. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

Cream Pan - Iced Vanilla Latte - Bakeries Near Me - Lomita, California

TRIED TO STEAL MY PURSE!!!!!‼‼ I came to today eat 4/19/26 around 11 and left at 11:30. I noticed a few hours later I had left my purse. I called 2 times and spoke to 2 different girls. First girl I spoke to was Sarah and she told me she looked around the cafe to check for my lost purse that I gave her the description for. I then called back a second time and this is when the problem started. I believe her name was Renow idk how to spell it but that's how it sounded Reno or Raeno The second girl claimed she was not able to check outside for me due to it being "too busy" she said to call back in 30 mins and then she can check outside... I said you can't just take 20 seconds to check? She said no... which I guess I understand but she was uncooperative and doing absolutely nothing to help the situation. When I asked if I could talk to the manager she said to call back in 30 mins. Then I asked for the exact time the a manger will be in and she said the manager won't be in today.. so then I said why would I call back in 30 mins.... I wanted to speak to anyone who could help me about possibly checking cameras and she claims she has no idea she acted clueless like she has no idea how to get ahold her manager or ANYONE I could talk so they can help me. I asked if there is an email or number and she said nothing. I know this girl is not dumb. She purposely didn't help me at all and I guess she was hoping I would not come in and forget about my purse. 15 mins after the call I came to the store and BOOM somehow my purse is in the front with someone else's food!? I tell them that's my purse and they were hesitant. I then asked how did my purse get there? I called 2 TIMES and nobody claimed to have seen it. Then they started saying I called 45 mins ago and that was a long time ago?? Which is a lie and had nothing to do with this. I repeatedly asked HOW did my purse get from the table to the front ? Who brought it to the front!!?? All of the staff looked around clueless as if I'm dumb. They all said they don't know that it just got turned in. I the told them again I want to know HOW it got up there and WHY it was not in the lost and found!??? The staff claims they didn't see it because it was not in the lost and found. I said really nobody noticed a random purse at the front? I said WHY is it at the front with someone else's stuff WHO put it there and all staff looked at me like I'm dumb. Then the older Asian lady went to the back and was speaking Japanese she came to the front and then said supposedly a customer turned it to the front. So I said within the 15 mins of me calling about my purse and me driving there it just so happens someone MAGICALLY brought it to the front?? Even tho I lost the purse 2 or 3 hours ago?? She said yes someone just brought it to the front within 15 mins and then I said if the girl I called didn't see it how did a customer see my purse and bring it to the front. All staff just acted clueless and had nothing to say they were definitely embarrassed that we put them in check. They were too stunned to speak I don't know if the staff was trying to cover for someone trying to take my purse but the staff definitely was hoping I didn't come back for it. I then asked if I called 2 times about my purse and the then supposedly a customer brought it to the front why was it not placed in the lost and found why did they not call me back?? I asked if they were planning on calling my back since they didn't know I was coming and they didn't give me an answer. Shady azz employees! Even if the staff didn't purposely steal my purse they definitely were hoping to keep my purse and weren't being truthful about the situation. They acted clueless when I asked for any kind of help. Also to make things WORSE After I started walking to leave a girl and a younger guy were laughing at the situation and I turned back around and said this is not funny and not something to be laughing about. This makes me so upset bc I'm a loyal customer and come all the time. Food here is BOMB but all staff here needs to be reevaluated and they are all sketchy Also you're lucky im nice and not someone else who would have jumped your whole crew!!! read more

This Japanese bakery is my go to when I want to bring some desserts for family or functions. Everyone loves the strawberry creamed filled croissants. I usually buy the small package with at least six croissants. I've also have had their butter rolls and Japanese white bread. They also serve lunch items such as a curry rice meal, sandwiches or spam musubi.Their fruit tart is also good, but a bit on the expensive side. The bakery also serves coffee and is a great place to catch a quick meal for breakfast or lunch.

Cream Pan has been one of my favorite bakeries to visit over in OC, so I'm glad to see one opened up in my home town. I got a 4 pack of the strawberry croissants for a friend, a Boston crème donut, and a condensed milk coffee. The croissants are definitely a must-try as they sell out quickly; fresh strawberries and custard inside a buttery croissant. The Boston crème donut was a surprisingly good pastry; a nice chocolate exterior with a soft, creamy interior. Finally the coffee was strong with a nice condensed milk overtone (essentially their version of Vietnamese coffee - delicious!). Definitely recommend you check them out. read more

Quality ingredients, bright green tasty matcha & light pastries. Space: it's pretty huge! Bright with lots of light. Cool place to sit and chat, maybe bring a laptop to work or study. It was quiet at 5pm on a Friday. Snacks: Red bean bun was perfect. Cream puff was super filled with a custard - not too sweet & just right. Sesame seed pastry was surprisingly good and sticky with slight sweetness. Oat matcha is fire and bright green. So good! Other foods: Didnt try anything from the food menu, but would love to next time. Cakes, slices of flan, melon cookies, coffee (whole bean and grind), packs of cookies, donuts, fresh bread, coffee, tarts and more. Value: prices match the quality. You can taste the quality, real ingredients. For a drink and a pastry, expect to spend about $10-$13. Service: things sell out! Went around 5pm on a Friday and lots of things gone because they're so popular. Everything we got was still very good. Service was great. The woman who helped us was sweet, recommended great items, and made conversation with my sister about her shirt (anime). Parking: there is some along the street and I think a lot. Definitely recommend a stop. I will be back earlier to try sold out items!!! read more

Run do not walk to Cream Pan! I'm so glad my aunt told me about this place - not really convenient to Santa Monica where we're staying or DTLA where I am often in town for work, but on the way to visit my aunt in PV :) I had been worried about parking or lines on a Saturday and hoped to pre-order but they weren't taking pre-orders. Worry was for nought as we pulled up at noon and parked easily. Went in and there was no line. And they weren't sold out of most of the items we wanted (short on sandwiches - no pork katsu or ham or turkey/avocado left), but that meant we got to try many other items! Items below listed in order of deliciousness: - chicken katsu sandwich - 5*/5 a star item for sure! so delicious with the soft Japanese white bread, generous pieces of chicken katsu, shredded cabbage, tomato, and some spread yumminess. - azuki cream - 5*/5 our favorite pastry and that's saying A LOT since their pastries were all so very good. Could have convinced me there was chocolate and not azuki at the bottom but the cream was super light, the pastry like a croissant and not like a typical cream puff dough - strawberry croissant - 5/5, they're known for these and they're deceptively light hence the recommendation to get more than one per person - almond croissant - 5/5 an excellent almond slice studded exterior and generous almond filling - sticky bun - 5/5, very solid sticky bun offering - cream pan - 4/5 namesake baked item, the custard inside is a very light one (I don't usually like custard because it's too heavy, theirs is just right) but the dough on this is not a flaky one and more bread like so to me not worth it for a pastry experience - curry bun - 4/5, beef curry filling inside a deep fried bun. very tasty and could have had more ratio of beef to dough - mixed sandwich - 4/5, solid offering of a mix of tuna salad, ham, egg salad sandwiches on the soft Japanese white bread or whole wheat bread. I'd just focus on the katsu sandwiches next time, nothing wrong with these but nothing super special - pork bun - 3/5, this was the only item I would not get again, compared to chinese pork buns not the same but my cousin had asked for them I have no idea when I'll be back in the area but I am SO glad I've now experienced Cream Pan! read more

I was so happy to see they opened a location in Lomita. I no longer need to drive all the way down to Tustin to get my strawberry croissant fix! They're so good! If you haven't had it before then this is a must try. Warm, crunchy, flaky croissants sandwiching a custard center with slices of strawberry, all topped with powdered sugar! Just a word of caution, do not inhale while taking a bite! They also have a new matcha cookie which was so gigantic, it took me the rest of the day to finish! It was good and I'd get it again! read more

The only reason I gave it a 2 start is because it is a nice and clean restaurant with lots of sitting space. It's great to sit and do some work on your laptop. It has a cake display case. Looks pricy for a 4.5" cake. I wish they would warm up the food like they do at Starbucks or other coffee shops. They have an oven right on the counter behind the cashier and the staff said they didn't know it was an oven and didn't know how to use it. Like seriously?? They seemed annoyed when I asked about warming the food ? Where's training for your staff to use the oven and customer service?? They told me to use the microwave at the end of the counter to warm up my curry bread. Y'all know microwave anything , especially bread is nasty. Then they got my drink order wrong. I ordered a hot matcha latte, the cashier put the order in cold. I didn't have time for them to remake a new one. The drink didn't even taste good for $7 12 oz drink. Won't be going back. They need to train their staff better in customer service and equipment usage. read more

Cream Pan is filled with so many delicious goods - from baked good (pastries, bread, cakes) to lunch sets (california rolls, sandwiches) I always find myself coming back. My favorite treat to get that my family enjoys is the fruit tart. They pack on the fruits, and change the seasonal fruit each time (my most recent time , there were persimmons!). Every time I come, there is a crowd, but the line moves quickly and the service is efficient. The inside has lots of tables and it is very clean and cute. I would recommend coming here for a snack or even picking up some lunch. read more

Their pastries and bread are truly top-notch and always fresh and delicious, while the prices remain reasonable. There is also a well-maintained parking, which is a great plus. read more

This bakery in my opinion has the softest bread I have ever had! They are known for their strawberry croissants which are very delicious but I think their katsu sandwiches are underrated! The bread is nice and fluffy with a hint of sweetness while the lettuce and katsu are crunchy/savory - the perfect balance! The service is also really good, I had catered some sandwiches here recently and the person helping me also helped me bring all of my food to my car :) Lastly, a few logistics: There's a good amount of parking but I don't think you can park in the lot with the gate. There is also seating but since this place is popular it fills up quick! read more
