We finally stopped by the bakery in Duarte to sample their signature beverage and pan dulce. Their…read morecafe de olla, was served hot, a nice blend of cinnamon and sweetness. We bought an elote, tortuga and can't recall the third piece of pan, and alfajores. The elote was delicious, I love that you can see little specs of cinnamon, soft and tender and vanilla scent. The tortuga was a bit more spongy, fragrant, and nice balanced of sweetness. The alfajores were buttery, crisp and smeared with dulce de leche. I needed a bday cake and decided to order the strawberry shortcake, because it looked so pretty. The cake was a hit with the family. The frosting was super light, the filling is one layer of custard and the other of light whipped cream and berries. The sponge is moist, the cake is not sweet, but decadent in its creamy texture. The inside of the store is aesthetically appealing, traditional glass cases showcase the pan. I'm so glad to have a nearby bakery and cake shop!

Cafe De Olla Bakery is conveniently located next to Club Pilates, my workout spot. While I am very…read morehappy about this (I love Cafe de Olla in Monrovia), getting coffee and a pastry post-workout might very well become my routine if I don't exercise enough self-control! Like some of the reviews already mentioned, this location is more of a "grab and go" type of place. They have a solid selection of cakes, pastries, and drinks. If you are looking for their full breakfast menu, the Monrovia location down the street is where you would want to go! When I visited, they were celebrating their 1-year anniversary with an outside table of samplers. They had a balloon arch outside to signal to the community that they are celebrating something special as well. The lady out front shared with me what they had to offer, and she also mentioned that they do catering! I like my coffee strong but also on the sweet side. When I asked for the stronger option, I was recommended to get the cappucino rather than the latte and they can make the caffeine a little bit more concentrated without sacrificing the flavor. The cookies were a little dry for my taste but maybe it was because the samplers were sitting outside for a little too long. I would go back just to try the breakfast sandwich, but the experience of grabbing food was pretty fast and the food was flavorful enough! Excited to have a closer Cafe de Olla to me and wishing them so much success!

Also even though the S'mores Flight s'mores were smaller in size than the regular S'mores, I think they were still pretty filling when eating just one. Parking can be a little tough though!

He gave thoughtful recommendations and made great adjustments to the drink based on what I ordered. You can tell he really cares about getting it right. The drink itself came out looking so cute -- and tasted just as good. Perfect balance of flavors without being overpowering. Honestly, next time I might skip the toppings altogether because the drink already shines on its own. No boba needed when the base is that good. Such a fun vibe and a solid spot I'd happily come back to.

I wrote a review a year ago and wanted to update it as it was still a 5 star experience for me! They open at 7pm and there were already people waiting in line. The shop rotates flavors often and the soft serves are all good! This recent visit was great! The staff let us sample per usual and explained how we could redeem our offer. My wife ended up getting 4 different flavors. The Blueberry Fig (dairy free), Mandarin (dairy free), Nian Gao (red bean) and one of my favorites the BLACK SESAME! We were able to choose 2 toppings each and we got them all with lids as we were going to take the other 2 home. They also offer some of past flavors as pints and we took home the Coconut Pandan (dairy free) that one is tremendous, btw! The location continues to be one of a kind from the tables and seats to the unique flavors of soft serve! Customer service is still great and the flavors are elite! Thanks again, 626 Ice Cream!

Super creamy and smooth with strong banana flavor (not the gross kind) and not too sweet. I had a hard time sharing this one. Berry berry beignets: this comes with 6 beignets + the fixings (berry compote, whipped cream, graham crumbs, berry sauce). If you order togo- they'll put the fixings on the side to not get the beignets soggy which is greatly appreciated. Classic beignets: you can get a 4 pack or 8 pack.
