Came by for some baked goods the other day and it was a decent experience. Parking was available in the private strip mall. Staff behind the counter were courteous. Ordered a chocolate hazelnut dessert and it was tasty and very good. Most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. It was on the pricier side at $10+ each.

Chocolate pastry , chocolate cupcake.

Customer service 5/5 Desserts 4/5 Ambiance 4/5 I came in randomly one day knowing I had always wanted to try their pastries. I'm not sure why I thought they would also have slices of cake ( Hense the name), but they had smaller pastries and dessert options. A lot of selections for all of your dessert cravings. I will have to go back in and try their coffee and other items. But the things I ordered were good.

Croissants selection

This has been my go-to place and a secret superpower for the last few years, that enabled me to show up with an amazing cakes for my wife's birthdays and really any occasions. They have a good selection of small single-serve cakes that we really enjoy, as we get to try many different flavors. But they also have large cakes, daily cakes, legendary Marvel tiramisu and all kinds of pastries. It's impossible to come in and walk out without a huge box of things you didn't know you needed. The service is quick and polite. They will even calligraph a custom edible banner for your cake! I've always taken away but there are some tables to eat in. There are always some people there but it's reasonably quiet and peaceful, with lots of light and muted colors interior.

Orange blossom latte

Aesthetic cafe and bakery. I tried the orange blossom latte, and it was quite fragrant. They also have lavender and rose lattes that I have enjoyed in the past.

Marvel Cake is such a hidden gem! The whole café has a girly and luxurious vibe, from the plush, super comfy seating to the elegant decor. There's plenty of indoor seating, so you don't feel cramped at all -- and bonus points for a clean, well-maintained bathroom, free WiFi, and easy, plentiful parking. I went on a Sunday around 1 PM, and surprisingly, it wasn't crowded at all -- which made the experience even better. I ordered the Hokkaido crepe cake, chocolate croissant, iced latte, and an iced americano. Everything was delicious: * The chocolate croissant was super crispy and fresh -- probably one of the best I've had. * The crepe cake was light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without being overpowering. * The iced latte was smooth and well-balanced, and you can tell they use good quality coffee. Definitely coming back. Whether you're into desserts, coffee, or just a chill spot with a pretty vibe, Marvel Cake checks all the boxes.

This place is absolutely lovely! The desserts were such a treat. I came the other day with a friend, and we ordered a few to share, the lemon pie, the passion fruit dessert, and the tiramisu, which was definitely our favorite. I had a cappuccino that was smooth and well-balanced, and my friend got the red velvet coffee, which had a really nice, subtle flavor, just the right touch of sweetness. If it weren't for my sugar sensitivity, I'd probably spend way more time here! The ambiance is so aesthetic and cozy, perfect for catching up with friends over coffee and something sweet.

The cute to go box

Seen this tagged all over TikTok so since I was in the area, I stopped in and let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed! There was sooo much to choose from! But went with the Lemon Tart, Strawberry tart, Creme Brûlée tart, serenity tart, and royal hazelnut. These were sooo good!!! The tart and sweet have the perfect balance on them. The Flavors are all amazing! The flavors are all there! Not at all to overwhelming. I will for sure be back here! They were a bit pricey but so worth the flavor. I'm sure the pastries I didn't try are all delicious as well! This cafe is super clean and quiet. They also have Affogato, Tea, and a coffee bar I can't wait to try next!! If you're in the area, stop by, you won't be disappointed!

I love the name! Being one of the few bakeries left in the area that makes spiral croissants... I had to try this place. MANGO SPIRAL CROISSANT - super disappointing - only the orange frosting/creme on top had actual mango flavoring - the interior was just your typical vanilla crème (no idea if this was intentional or if they just forgot the mango flavoring because this was SUPER DISAPPOINTING and I feel as if I have been lied to) - croissant itself wasn't crisp at all and not what I expected at all (it tasted like dense puff pastry not flaky buttery delicious croissants) DUBAI CROISSANT - okay I ordered this because I am totally falling into the Dubai chocolate fad - no flaky buttery crispy deliciousness any where - more "skin" than anything (I doubt anyone could guess this is a rendition of Dubai chocolates) ORANGE BLOSSOM LATTE - did not taste like blossoms at all - more vanilla taste than anything SERVICE - friendly - did not really wanted to answer any questions - I appreciate them charging me less? (Or maybe it was a mistake of charging me more before they noticed the mistake? But thank you) AMBIENCE - indoor and outdoor seating - a ton of folks were sitting in and having lively conversations while consuming their drinks and pastries - very modern white clean decor PARKING - located in the Nob Hill plaza - no other eateries around this bakery (but next plaza over) - plentiful parking; free + private lot

Almond croissant and hot red velvet mocha
Melody T.

I loooove their pain au chocolat!!! This time I got the almond croissant and a red velvet mocha latte. I really like the almond croissant too. The mocha was okay. It tasted good but I definitely care more about the pastries. The place has a nice tea time vibe inside and the workers are very sweet. Always coming back for the croissants!

Delightful! I felt like I was waltzing into a bougie Cafe . Anyhow I came here to purchase a cake for my birthday party and they had very aesthetic and beautiful cakes . I purchased a green one with baby pink roses and the flavor was chocolate and chocolate mousse. It was absolutely a crowd pleaser among all of my friends. The service was outstanding they understood that I needed a cake for my Milestone birthday and they helped me out. I can't wait to come back here to try the pastries and coffees and other things.

See Walnut Crek couldn't locat here on Y.thx and the luxury! I am Beverly Hills inside? Not CoCoCo county? City of Walnut Creek under New apt homes but not Lyric nor Avalon . This place is the hot Kardashian fave to have coffee, espresso Turkish cafe' or wonderful white Tea and others from France! Even my savory Leek was wonderful took one to go. And the beauty of the artistic work on the sweet pastierrisie and cake is just that a world of MARVEL Named appropriately, even when I recommend I always forget the name so I boast the location under the apt homes directly across from Kaiser. Nurses are missing out! Beautiful and chandeliers interior decored mustn't cost a fortune for the decorators. Wash your hand first as the flatware is actually since l ver songs tonnitngetna metallic taste and personal hygiene mostly! My gave i have enclosed and very pretty. So manynchoices as well but not overwhelming. Funny, my fave person from Paris is now their manger from Maison Benoits of DanV Everything went well especially the cafeteria almost dining bit not self serve Very nice morpheme ton relax and get away from everyday chaos outside doors Next time we will attempt to take home a larger selection of pastry, Walnut Creek go!

The beautiful birthday decoration
Cat N.

I've been wanting to try Marvel cake for so long and my brother-in-law surprised us by bringing it today for a birthday celebration. He got four things the strawberry heart shaped moose, the lemon tart, a pistachio tart, and their infamous croissant chocolate I don't even know what it's called. Everything was so flavorful and so beautiful. I thought the lemon tart was the best. It had such a great flavor. I wasn't so crazy about the strawberry mousse heart. I thought it had a weird texture, but the guys loved it. I did love how pretty it was and it had a teeny tiny little rose decoration, which was so adorable and special ! The chocolate croissant signature dessert was good. I loved the fudgy ganache interior. I wasn't so crazy about the pistachio tart, but my brother-in-law went nuts for it. But I did go crazy for was just how beautiful everything was highly recommend to take it for takeout to while your guests.

Priscilla R.

I loved Marvel Cake! All of their pastries were great, our favorite was the pistachio circle croissant, highly recommend! Great and fast service, a lot of parking, and the ambiance is great to meet up with friends and chat or study (a lot of seating area).

Barefoot Coffee Campbell

(795 reviews)

Let me start by saying, I am not a coffee aficionado like many of these other reviews. In fact, I…read moredon't even drink coffee. I went to Barefoot Coffee to meet someone. What attracted me was their non-coffee options. I ordered a vanilla steamer. I don't recall what she got. The vanilla steamer was good - pretty hard to mess up vanilla, right? She had no complaints about her coffee. Loved the the outdoor seating. And the inside layout was nice. The tables are to the sides so no one is bumping into you while they order or get their drinks. Price was about $5 a drink and they were small, but I believe that's on par with a typical independent coffee house. Service was nice enough. They didn't seem particularly happy (lots of frowns), but they were polite enough with me. I figure they either just didn't want to be there or were having a bad day. One small drawback is it was very hard to hear them calling out the order and we were at one of the tables close to where the drinks were served.

Happy March!!…read more Decided to stop by a coffee shop that I've never been to before. Found this coffee shop through Yelp (of course!!) There were a few tables inside. Quite a bit of people as well! I ended up ordering the cold brew and the salmon toast. Price was pretty standard. 5.25 for the cold brew and 13.50 for the toast. Both were very good. Cold brew was 10/10! The toast was delicious 9/10. Everything balances each other out perfectly, just marked one point off since it was a pretty pricey! Overall, I am definitely a fan of this coffee shop. Would I get the coffee again? Absolutely! And food? Maybe will try the pastries!
