I could barely see the pastries in the case. No worries though, I saw what I came in for. Purchased a French baguette for $3.70. Beyond amazed at the price. Excited to have some with my coffee, I ripped off a piece almost immediately and noticed the nice crust on the outside. 5 stars for the crust!! As for the flavor, it seemed a little flat. It was lacking some of the wheaty-tangy flavor you would get from a longer prove/fermentation. The inside of it was also missing all those nice deep pockets you see in a French baguette. Overall, not a bad baguette, but not one that you yearn for. I'd like to mention the young lady Annabel I had the privilege of meeting outside of the bakery. She was on a delivery run, but told me about their IG page, and we had a wonderful chat about cookies. Thank you for your time, Annabel, you are awesome!

Some…read morepies were still in the oven since they had pretty much just opened so if you want to try it all, maybe time your entry or call ahead. The crust on the mixed berry pie ($10) was buttery and the filling was tart which I appreciate. I thought there may have been a bit too much crumble on top but it was so good can you really have too much?? The earl grey scone ($5) was spot on flavor-wise and wasn't too sweet. The chocolate chip cookie ($3) actually blew me away. It has a high fat/butter content so the edges are crispy and the rest is gooey. Chocolate chips in every bite and the sea salt brings it all together. Probably one of the best cookies I've ever eaten.

I travel up here for work on occasion and it was a great place for me to purchase fresh donuts instead of the ones down in SLO specially if I wasn't down there already. Overall, The vibe here is more cozy but it is also in a busier location because of the location of the movie theater. I've driven by here hundreds of times but never realize that it was hiding in plain sight. All of my usual favorites are here. There's always a lot of the fancy looking donuts and my personal favorites are the creampuffs. These are probably one of the best creampuffs I've ever had. They're almost like larger donut holes with cream in there. They're just wonderful. I've always wanted to try some of the drinks that they have here but I've always only purchased the donuts and creampuffs here. The last time I was here, the team was very friendly and helpful and they were able to get me in and out of there in a matter of minutes. There is tons of parking here and it's plaza. if you get lucky, there are spots right outside on the street for easy access.

I needed roughly 5-10 mins to look over all of the options before making my selections. There is a front case with all of the specialty donuts and a whole back wall with the classics donuts. To say I was overwhelmed would be an understatement. As a group of 4 we decided to order several donuts to share. We ordered the blueberry cake, pecan pie raised, mashed potato raised, lavender with sprinkles raised, pumpkin cheesecake, espresso filled, pumpkin brûlée bites, and a jalapeño ham and cheese croissant. The donuts are very beautifully decorated and the time that was spent decorating them shows. The customer service was patient, kind and very helpful. Some of the funky donuts such as the mashed potato raised donut is actually vanilla flavored and thankfully the person helping us was patient enough to tell us all of the flavors. All of the donuts were delicious. No complaints what so ever. As for the prices, they were listed above and everything is a fair price for speciality donuts. Additionally, they offered a very generous 25% discount for military. Inside there were seating options surrounding a fire place, bar style seating, and some options outdoors.

Sick kid, soup mission... and somehow I left with one of the best bagels I've had in a while…read more I stopped by Jonnyboy's Bagelry & Jewish Delicatessen to grab matzo ball soup for my daughter, who was home sick, and realized it was already 10:00 and I hadn't eaten yet. So of course, I ordered my favorite too, a salt bagel, extra toasted. My main goal was the soup, and when they said it was only available frozen, I was totally fine with that. It could thaw throughout the day and she could enjoy it whenever she felt up to it. Turns out, it was a great call. The soup had tiny bits of veggies and multiple matzo balls that were nice and sizable. She loved it, and honestly, it looked so good I'll be getting it for myself next time I'm feeling run down. Now the surprise star... that bagel. The chew was spot on. That perfect bakery-style texture with just the right crust. Not even close to a grocery store bagel. If you know, you know. The shop itself is small and super casual, with a very relaxed, neighborhood feel. Service was quick, about three minutes from ordering to walking out the door. They also have outdoor seating, which is a nice bonus. And one more thing worth mentioning... if you take a minute to look up at the menu board, they have a great selection of breakfast sandwiches. Definitely coming back to work my way through those. Great food, fast service, chill vibe... and that bagel chew alone is worth the stop.

They have sofa seating and many seating tables. Staff was friendly and helpful. They serve fresh pastries and also have other food items such as sandwiches and wraps. We tried their Mexican mocha and vanilla latte. Both were very good with a rich coffee flavor that we like. We also had their chocolate chip scone which was very good as well. They also have gluten free pastry options. Overall, a great coffee house. If we are in the area next time, we will definitely stop by for some more good coffee and pastries! Happy Nom Nom!

We were in…read moreAtascadero this particular weekend and the first thing I did was hit up Yelp to find where I was going to get my caffeine fix. Bru seem to have the best reviews in town, so I decided to check it out. I was blown away how much room both inside and outside this shop had when it comes to seating. You definitely can't tell that's the case from the outside, but it was a great surprise once I got in. The barista was friendly, they were able to create my drink no problem, and I really loved the different gluten and dairy free options they had for food. I went with a gluten and dairy free, chocolate, banana muffin that was really good. The only reason I gave four stars instead of five, was simply the quality of the oat milk. It was good, but not great. That said, if I lived in the area, it would not prevent me from coming. Other than that, it's a really cool shop.

We totally expected a wait because of the holiday, but it honestly seemed like they were extremely understaffed for a busy Mother's Day morning. The same woman taking orders was also making all the coffee drinks, running food, and bussing tables. She was working incredibly hard, but it felt like way too much for one person to handle. We ordered coffees first, then waited while she balanced all her other jobs before eventually coming back to take our food order. We found a cozy spot inside and probably waited around 30 minutes for the food. That said, the meal itself was really good. We had a basic breakfast, the breakfast tacos, the Morning Glory sandwich, and the sourdough toast was especially delicious. Portions were on the smaller side for the price, but overall it was a tasty meal. We'd definitely consider coming back on a less crowded day when things hopefully feel a little more staffed and manageable.

We ordered the French dip with potato salad and the Cuban sandwich with Caesar salad. The Cuban had great flavor and was plenty filling. I liked the salad although not really a Caesar to me but still good flavor. The French dip was great. We got it as is and it was so flavorful on its own but adding the au jus took it to the next level! We didn't really care for the potato salad but it's more on preference. It was more like a southern potato salad. We loved the bread it was with though. Had a crunch but didn't hurt the roof of your mouth. We will be back to try other things.

I happened to be up in Atascadero with my daughter during their opening hours, fortunately, and stopped in. The last few times I'd tried to come here they weren't open, so I was excited. They seemed understaffed, with only 2 people I think, but quickly greeted us, took our order, and helped get our outdoor table ready. There was a bunch of road construction and my daughter wanted to watch the tractors and trucks. Nice little nook in the corner of the shopping center, decent seating inside and a handful outside. I ordered the cuban sandwich, I like them but so many around SLO county are just not good. Well, this came out on a beautiful bread roll and was packed full of the meats. The pickles and mustard were perfect, the ratios were great, it was a mouthful. The bread was baked excellent and really the stand out, as it should be at a bakery. That said, this is a sandwich I'd happily drive up 41 to get again. Can't wait to come back and try more sandwiches and hopefully come home with some fresh baked bread.
