    two trays of cookies on a counter
    Gauravi P.

    What a diamond in the ruff bakery! We stopped by to pick up some sweets for a party. We had never been to this bakery so we weren't sure about the quality of sweets. We were looking for classic bakery items but nothing too sweet. We were so pleasantly surprised by Quebrada's goods! We ordered 6 cupcakes and 6 cookies. Everything was incredibly delicious. Our favorites were the mocha and vanilla cupcakes and the chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin cookies! The prices were reasonable as well. Next time I would love to purchase a 6 inch chocolate cake!

    Nothing I love more than the smell of fresh baked yumminess early in the morning! Buttery croissants with all sorts of fruity filling to be exact! They have all their baked goods right in front as you enter inside this little bakery so be prepared to tell them you're still looking because you're just overwhelmed by their vast selection of goodies. Apple Croissant- These croissants are massive with lots of fluff. Once you get in the middle of this flakey goodness, the filling has these fresh bits and pieces of apple. Raspberry Croissant- Sweet with the right amount of tart inside of this buttery pastry. Cinnamon Almond Croissant- This was probably the only one I didn't like. It was dry and a bit on the harsher side with the cinnamon and sliced almond so just have a drink ready for this one. Overall Service: As I was perusing through their selections, it felt like they were rushing me a bit by constantly asking me if I decided on anything yet. I probably said I was still looking 3 times before they stopped asking. Even though they were upbeat, it's too early for that at 6 in the morning. Other than that, they were nice.

    I ordered 30 mini cupcakes for my son's graduation banquet. They were absolutely delicious! Everyone wanted to know where I got them. Currant scones and Hazelnut coffee are also the bomb!

    Excellent food and great customer service. Tried the chocolate croissant and it's warm and amazing. Crispy on the outside and nice and warm and gooey of chocolate yumminess! The muffins looked so good. I didn't get to try the walnut one but friend did and said it was good!

    A recent addition to Belmont center this little sister store to the Arlington favorite brings a much needed indie bakery to the Belmont scene. I popped in recently and found a feeling of pastry deja vu- albeit offered up on a slightly smaller scale. The two pastry cases display all your usual suspects: muffins, scones, eclairs, croissants, cupcakes and cake options. Many of the goodies come in regular or petite versions- letting you adjust your sliding scale of gluttony accordingly. My wild blueberry scone and chai confirmed that this smaller storefront still delivers the same tastiness I'd come to expect from their Arlington brethren. My only qualms with this place have to do with the set-up. The store is small (no in-store seating) and there's no clear traffic pattern in place for browsing, ordering and waiting for your purchase. The day I was here it wasn't particularly crowded with 4-5 patrons in the shop at any given time. But it felt cramped. There were a few times while I was waiting to order, peering around the other customers standing idly around the counters, when I thought about just bouncing to avoid the awkwardness-- but in the end the scone won me over and proved worth the wait. Easily beating out nearby Brueggers & Starbucks in both quality and selection- this place will do well here. Just a word of advice- as Quebrada gets into their groove at this Belmont location, consider making the ordering layout more clear to customers. You want to give people every reason to come in and order, so a sign or verbal prompt about which side to order and which side to wait would be appreciated. I mean, not everyone loves scones as much as me.

    Everything I've had is great, especially the chocolate and plain croissants as well as the iced coffee.

    The mini cupcakes were the perfect size (I don't like *too* much dessert, I know I'm weird), and price (less than $2!).

He shouted out that she had "contaminated" the drink and he would make a new one for the correct customer. This was all said in a loud, actorly voice so that everyone in the shop could know that He Was Displeased. Note, the "contamination" consisted of the woman a) holding the cup of hot chocolate and, b) walking to her table with it. On a previous occasion, he yelled at an older woman in her 90s because she needed to sit down on a chair while he was sweeping. He snidely told her that she should go outside if she needed to sit. Her confusion about the seating was understandable, because for some unknown reason the cafe needs to close a full hour before the bookshop (and they begin this process earlier even than that, by "helpfully" putting away the chairs and turning off the lights). I guess they sell some croissants and coffee, but honestly: who cares, given the above?

However, I was happy to find that there was a cafe in the back corner that opens in the mornings. So on the way to work, I tried out their cute cafe and got a pumpkin-spiced latte with almond milk. Overall, the coffee was decent and wasn't bitter or burnt (which was impressive since when I visited, the cafe was very new with little experience). This definitely earns them points in my book. I will say that they lose points (in my books) just based on my personal preferences. First off, being a brewery, expect there to be a STRONG smell of beer. Even though I wasn't in there for long, I could still find myself getting a headache and not enjoying the strong smell. I'll also say that the service I received the morning I went wasn't the best, and the man who made my drink definitely did not want to be there. As I've mentioned in other reviews I've done, I rate places HEAVILY based on service and kindness. Overall, the coffee was decent, but there are better places to go on Waltham that I would rather go to instead.
