For what this place is, it's pretty awesome. It's convenient and their donuts are quite good and…read morenot at all overpriced. Their donuts are slightly crisp, not oily and have good flavor. Their ham and cheese croissants are quick, easy and affordable so it's kind of a no brainer. Staff are super nice. Never once been let down by anything I've had here.

First time discovering this small bakery tucked away in a spacious plaza of Lemon Grove. The inside…read moreis able to seat around 14 people from the looks of it and there is additional shaded seating outside. Staff that I met was extremely friendly (Grayson, Jules, and Dom), as well as the owner of the bakery Tanya. This bakery has been operating for about three years and there was a good crowd on a Monday afternoon. All the pastries are vegan and I tried the vanilla concha (pro tip get it warmed up) with their house made maple butter and the carrot cake. Both were amazing, I've never had a vegan concha and don't think I'll be going back to regular ones! They also have breakfast sandwiches that many people ordered that looks like it's on a thick piece of focaccia. The reviews speak for itself! Great pastries and coffee, friendly staff, and clean store what more could you want?! I'm glad I made this discovery and can't wait to come back, highly recommend you check out this place!

The coffee is good and they made fresh decaf for me on an afternoon visit. If going on 94 headed to 8 or vice versa, exit Spring and stock up on the way.

I'm blown away by the value and quality! You can get a ham torta for $4.40 here! They have multiple…read moresandwiches for $5. And these things aren't small!! I wish I'd taken a picture but we all dug in too fast. We got a pierna, a carnitas, and a huevos Mexicano. Each one was absolutely delicious. I did take a picture of their beautiful bakery case loaded with gorgeous conchas, cakes, and pastries. I'll definitely be snagging some of those on my next visit. This place is one of the best values out there. An absolute local gem. We're definitely putting it on the lunch rotation.

The service is good, I also want to emphasize their fresh Mexican tortas, fresh Tamales, and fresh sweet bread (pan dulce)  along with their fresh brewed coffee.  It seems to me no matter if you go to the Spring Valley location or the San Diego location. You will find, see, and experience a real gift of tasty authentic and affordable Mexican food at Lucy's Bakery. Here is what to expect (see the menu's)

Super nice staff. Super good coffee and super dog friendly. Coffee shops are a luxury for me…read moreright now but I will make a point to walk my dog over there a few more times this week before I leave town.

Today was my last time visiting this location. Unfortunately, the staff seem to lack basic customer…read moreservice and common courtesy. The cashier (the man with the mustache) came across as very arrogant and rude -- he didn't smile or show any welcoming attitude at all. It honestly felt uncomfortable interacting with him. The baristas weren't much better. My coffee was mostly milk with barely any coffee flavor, and it tasted pretty bad. When I picked up my drink, I said "thank you," and the barista didn't acknowledge me or even nod. Overall, the experience felt cold and unprofessional. I'd much rather make the drive to the Golden Hill location, where the service is noticeably better.

I was really at a loss a few months ago when they changed their recipe! I drive by this establishment every day on my way to get on the 94. I thought to myself, "one time can't hurt!" OH MY GOODNESS!!! The Chai tea ACTUALLY had TASTE! It did not taste like that new found chemical (classic) taste Starbucks apparently has pumped into my beloved drink. The customer service was bubbly and jovial! I went inside one day because the drive thru was a tad chaotic, and I saw what I believed to be the owner. He was so just, chill and carrying on with the patrons. I really hope he is cognizant and proud of his bustling coffee shop he has created. This man, is also on the headset as well. So the work ethic is there. I want to see this for a local business! This is why they THRIVE! I have never met this person, no idea of his name, I am an observer as well as being part of the food and beverage industry. I appreciate greatness. The customer service here, all around is 10/10! It took me 4 times going through the drive thru (they have a camera) , for them to know EXACTLY what I order! Crew! You actually make my day!! Shout out to Sara and Melody! Give this place a go! Oh,oh they also have a punch card! Make sure to get one! You get $5 off when you hit a certain number! (The number could be lower ;-)) Ok, I'll see you tomorrow guys :-)

New Fave Iced Coffee: The Lemon Poppyseed Shaken Espresso…read more If you are in Spring Valley/La Mesa area, you have to stop by and try this drink. I was able to peek the inside from their drive thru line and the seating and space looks very comfortable. The drive thru line itself is a huge plus for me when on-the-go before work/errands. Getting back to the drink, I did order this iced with Oat Milk and half sweet -- It is so delicious My coworkers were even surprised at how much they liked it because of the lemon. Me personally? I love anything with lemon in it. Well balanced, tasty, not too much... just right and strong to get you through the day!

What the heck? I have to update my review yet again, and lower my stars…read more The online delivery menu has been revised to no longer allow you to select specific donuts. If you want a 1/2-dozen assorted donuts, you can't pick and choose. You can order only a "half dozen of their popular, Yum Yum's choice". The nature of bakeries has changed. It appears this vendor has too many aspirations to also be a restaurant, also trying to do too many cuisines lol. Stick to donuts! Maybe I'll DoorDash to 85°C.

Ordered some donuts through DoorDash and they are by far the best chocolate old fashioned donut…read moreI've ever hard. The chocolate was rich and creamy and the dough fluffy and delicious.

We usually go in person at this Lemon Grove location and have always had a pleasant experience…read more This time however we ordered online for some Double chocolate cake Doughnuts with rainbow sprinkles and a few Glaze donuts. We received no chocolate cake doughnuts- just frosted normies with random sprinkles, jimmies quine and nonpareils all over some of them, The shop also appeared to give us extra of the doughnuts they did have to compensate. While I respect the hustle, please just cancel the order if you cannot fulfill the request. I'll definitely buy from again just in person.
