It was a bit chaotic and confusing what made them different from any new bakery. Initially a lower value priced quality focused offering to rival perenn i believe they finally hit the spot. Their breads actually now have their character, right texture, flavor and freshness. The customer service has also improved. Staff is much friendlier than early days. I had the grinder sandwich and ate every single bite because it was so delicious. The crack and crumble of the bread was like a banh mi sandwich but filled with Italian ingredients. The only downside is their space is a bit tight for the amount of business they bring in and timing is essential to enjoy your experience here if you can grab a seat at the right time. We definitely added them back to our regular list of places to visit for our bakery needs on the mornings and weekend brunch.

It is great that you can see what is happening behind the scenes with windows that view into the kitchen. Then you approach the baked goods section and then it becomes hard to choose. Fresh croissants and cookies are the recognisable goods. Other goods I can't pronounce or spell however, the mochi is always an excellent choice. These mochi baked goods took time to perfect, so enjoy it here. The first wave of service is nice, they will help you get pastries and baked goodies. Then you approach the register where you can order food and drinks. This last visit everyone was very nice and helpful. We received our food quickly. Thanks Perenn for all the good you offer.

Perenn is genuinely lovely. The space is beautiful, the sourdough is exceptional, and the food…read morereflects real craft and care. As a longtime Reno customer I've watched them grow from a single location into a multi-state restaurant group with six locations across Nevada and Tennessee -- and that growth is well deserved. That said I do want to share one honest observation. On top of premium pricing -- which I'm happy to pay for quality -- Perenn also charges subscribers for their Substack newsletter. For an independent bakery scraping by, that makes complete sense. For a thriving six-location restaurant group with real momentum and expansion capital, it feels like a bridge too far. The brand story and the people behind it are genuinely compelling -- that content should be how you invite customers deeper into your world, not an additional revenue line. The food earns five stars. The Substack paywall earns a raised eyebrow. Share your story freely -- you've clearly earned the audience.

Unfortunately, I was spoiled during my working years by being just a few blocks from Chinatown in…read moreLos Angeles, so that's the standard I tend to compare everything to. We ordered the BBQ Pork Buns, Minced Pork Dumplings, and Sui Mai. We took everything home and steamed it ourselves. I also picked up a Napoleon pastry from the bakery case. The BBQ Pork Bun was good with nice flavor. I would order it again, especially since I don't know of many other places in Reno where I can get one of my favorite dim sum items. The Minced Pork Dumplings, however, were not for us. I believe the flavor of the Chinese leek may have been what turned us off. As for the Napoleon, it wasn't very sweet or particularly flavorful, and it made quite a mess to eat. Not something I'd reorder. The Sui Mai was delicious, and I would definitely order it again. This was the winner of our take home feast. While not everything was a hit for us, we'd return for the Sui Mai and BBQ Pork Buns and other explore some other items that we have yet to try.

If you're an ube fan, Dream Cakes is absolutely worth the stop. The ube cake was hands down the…read morehighlight of the visit moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. It had a rich, authentic taste that kept me coming back for another bite, and it's easily one of the better ube desserts I've had. The only thing that kept this from being a five star experience was the selection. I was hoping for a larger variety of flavors and more items available, but the display felt a little limited during my visit. I would have loved to try more of what they have to offer. We got one of everything they had and that ended us up with lots of earl gray flavors admittedly not my favorite. That said, quality definitely won over quantity. If the variety grows, this would be an easy five-star bakery in my book. I'll definitely be back for the ube. Super amazing staff ! And the building was easy to find .

It is a little on the expensive side, but the quality definitely makes it worth it. I also tried their seasonal Cloud Matcha, and it was so refreshing. I seriously hope they make it a permanent menu item because I'd order it every time! They have plenty of parking, but I'd recommend coming early since there's usually a line. Definitely one of my favorite bakery spots!

Of course I have to order something cocktail-like: Milky Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso. It's refreshing, bold, and had that perfect silky smooth texture. It's the ideal drink while you're sitting by the window sipping and people watching over on the 4th Street. The staff here is friendly and make you feel welcome. The service is quick, but they still take the time to make sure your drink looks as good as it tastes. The space is bright and airy, making it a great spot to zone out or catch up with a friend. Definitely worth a stop if you're downtown and want a top-tier caffeine fix in a beautiful space!

She is gluten free and was impressed at how good all the gluten free items were, and how they were able to keep an extremely similar menu even. She only had one item that was completely different than what I received (a cheesecake instead of a fruit tart). You can really tell that they work hard to ensure the gluten free menu is as amazing as the non gluten free one. Everything was absolutely delicious, including the bottomless tea. I think the peach cardamom scone was my favorite today! I was happy that they could make my tea iced as it was a really hot summer day. The server was amazing, she was attentive and friendly. The place settings were super cute and I felt transported to England. I am definitely going to come back a third time with some friends! I love that the menu changes every month so you always have something new to try! Don't forget to make reservations!

The staff was friendly, professional, and helpful as this was our 1st tea time. The shop is bright and airy but it was a a bit smaller than I expected. The tea setting was beautifully done but our table was extremely small which made teatime challenging at times. During the teas each person gets their own pot of unlimited tea. We did the Jasmine Glow tea and the Strawberry Chocolate Pu'erh. The teas were amazingly delicious! They were so good that we bought some to bring home. The bites were flavorful, just the right size, and complemented each other beautifully. You could taste the love and care that went into each one of the items. They also offer 2 speciality adult beverages each month. The Prosecco float was my favorite! This was a wonderful and delicious experience. We can't wait for next month's tea!

With this pie in hand, all your troubles melt away, as long as the pie lasts. But there's a dark cloud on the horizon... this pie does not last forever! You look down at the plate, debating lapping up the crumbs. You look over at the last slice on the dessert table. That last, unclaimed bit of pure joy. Then you look around the room. The others have tasted the pie... Your dear, sweet mother. Your aged father. Neither of them is a threat. The grandparents? Bah, they couldn't even make it to the table and you'd have the pie half-way down your gullet. Aunts and uncles... you could push through them without any issue. Your brother may pose a threat, but how dangerous can a marine *really* be? Your sister? No, guile and deception won't win the day, here. The kids table.. were there 4 there earlier? 5?
