I stumbled upon Gigi's One Bite Wonder at the Pinole Farmers Market the other day, and I'm so glad…read moreI did, truly a match made in heaven. From the very first bite, I knew this was something special. The coconut brioche donut was absolutely out of this world. Not too sweet, perfectly light and fluffy, and unbelievably creamy, with just the right amount of coconut. Balanced, delicate, and indulgent without being heavy. Honestly, unforgettable. We also tried the arroz con leche and the Nutella donut, and both were delicious in their own right. Everything was beautifully made and full of flavor. But that coconut brioche? That one really stole the show and lives rent-free in my mind. If you see Gigi's One Bite Wonder at a market, do yourself a favor and stop by. Your taste buds will thank you.

Love Gigi's One Bite Wonder so much!…read more I look forward to the Farmers' Market every weekend, just so I can visit Gigi's booth. The donuts are only slightly sweet, which makes them perfect vessels for the sweet fillings. And let me tell you, the donuts are generously filled I also love all her iced drinks! The banana bread latte is my fave. Definitely check this place out!

It didn't taste quite like banana pudding but definitely banana flavor. The edges were slightly crispy while the middle was buttery and chewy. Impressive and maybe worth it as a once-in-awhile-treat. It's $3ish per cookie which beats Crumbl in both quality and pricing. They have a few unique flavors (i.e. 7up, peach cobbler, etc.) which I understand rotate on a monthly basis. My sweet clients were really happy when they saw the box which was the cherry on top. Glad I can check off this Yelp bookmark and that they have several locations in my territory! I got lucky this time with street parking right outside.

There were three staff members in total (thin build, Latino male), medium build Filipino female with glasses, and a thin build Asian female). The male was working on an in person order when I walked in, seven to ten minutes later the same woman was standing around waiting for parts of her order - no other in person customer was being assisted. A young woman, who had placed an online order for two coffee drinks asked repeatedly if anyone was going to make her drink order. It took two staff members - Asian female, Latino male) - to help figure it out, each debating who was going to make it. The Filipino female kept coming from the back to bring sandwich items to seated waiting customers. The male continued to look at online orders before helping the family of three in front of me. When their order was finalized, the male walked away from the register and proceeded to look at the online orders. He said nothing to the line, did not acknowledge our presence. He went to the back to make a sandwich - again two staff members working on one thing (Filipino female, Latino male) while in person customers stood and waited. The Filipino female asked what him what was in the bag while standing at the front of the store. The other Asian female was still working on the coffee drinks from the online order from when I first walked in. After about ten minutes of being walked by and disregarded, while waiting to be acknowledged, I asked is anyone going to take our orders at the counter? The male replied, "Yes, but we have a lot of online orders and we'll get to you shortly." So online orders take precedent over those waiting in store to purchase? If this is the case, then why are there only three staff members who are clearly not organized nor serve in the capacity of enough staff to assist customers online and in person? If I had not asked about being helped, no telling how long staff would had continued to ignore us. The Filipino female walked over, asked how my day was and asked what she could get me. After each donut selection shared, anything else?... She was being passive aggressive in her tone and with her words. As I was waiting to select my receipt options, she saiid, "All of that for two donuts" to the male. Who both went into the back while the rest of the building line waited. When I finished my receipt selection and entering my phone number, the father and son behind me were still waiting without any assistance or staff acknowledgement.. If I had not promised my daughter a donut prior to order road trip, I would have left long before. Worse service as it was nonexistent to those in person. There were three staff, two were doing staff and the third at the front was nonexistent. Do better Dynamite, your customer service was absent yesterday, staff not at all prepared or organized and your store is not staffed to assist both online and in person without neglecting in person. Communication was nonexistent as well, leaving customers standing in line without a single word or thought of returning any time soon. Online orders, you'll be waiting too. There were three people who walked in, going directly the register with a phone in their hands. They were waiting two for the pickup while the young lady wanted her coffees made. The ambiance here...people were upset across the board. I would rather drive to Pinole and get service, Dynamite donuts are not worth that wait or nonexistent level of service.

I ordered a gender reveal cake here for me and my wife. When we went to order, we brought the…read moregender in an envelope and told the person taking our order that we don't know the gender and we don't want to find out until we cut the cake. She was nice and helped us choose a cake that would meet our needs. I reminded her after the order was completed that I would be the one picking up the cake and I do not want it to be revealed what the gender is to me. When I went to go pick up the cake, the cake box was smaller than the cake so we couldn't close it properly to transport it safely. But I did notice pink on the top layer icing and I went back to the guy and asked him to cover it up. Instead of just covering the imperfection on an all white cake, he said you know the color on the inside is blue right? And i told him, no I don't but now the surprise is ruined. After being extra careful for a week to not know what the gender was going to be before the reveal. The person who packed the cake decided to get defensive about the imperfection on the all white cake and say what the color is on the inside. All I asked was to cover the imperfection so the cake is solid white like we ordered and not tell me what the color on the inside was. It was truly disappointing that they would try to argue the imperfection as it was clearly pink on top corner than to cover it with more white icing. Wouldn't recommend getting a gender reveal cake here. Truly ruined a good moment for us by having bad customer service skills.

Even though they were busy, the service was still excellent. I sat at the bar and ended up having really good conversations with the baristas and a few customers about how much East Bay Coffee has grown over the years. I even showed pictures from when they first opened and it was only a coffee shop. It's been really nice watching this place evolve into more than just coffee while still keeping the same welcoming atmosphere. The food is always solid, the drinks are consistently good, and if you haven't tried them in the evening for dinner and drinks, you definitely should. Big love to Lisa and Bill -- and definitely miss Billy behind the bar. Always happy to support this spot.

My husband got a little cinnamon roll topped with walnuts and if you are a nut person, do yourself a favor and get one because it was absolutely delicious. We also ordered two iced coffees and the flavor blew us away. You could actually taste the coffee, which sounds like a low bar but you know how it goes. I added a little sugar-free vanilla syrup and it complemented everything perfectly without overpowering that wonderful coffee flavor. The person taking our order was so nice answering all of our questions. It's a small quaint little place to have a few tables out front too. We took our goodies and drove to the end of the block to eat at a little park overlooking San Pablo Bay. Honestly the whole morning felt like such a find. We are already talking about coming back to try more things on the menu. One more thing worth mentioning: it looks like they do custom cakes too, and that is going straight onto my list for the next family celebration. This place is the real deal.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
