    This bakery has the kindest, most genuinely friendly staff and the most excellent chai latte I have ever had!. I am from out of town on work and had the pleasure of taking my quiche and muffin (with a complimentary cookie because I couldn't decide if I wanted a cookie or muffin) to dine in. I watched this staff meet each local (15+) by name and not only knew their orders by heart, but had them started as they saw their cars pull up! They are warm, inviting and asked questions about the locals weekend, birthday, special event and worked so seamlessly as a team to get the food and coffee to each patron QUICKLY. The ambiance is top tier with frank Sinatra playing in the background that is easily drowned out by the patrons pleasant chatter and laughter. Will absolutely be making this my go-to while in town and could not recommend enough. PS the quiche and muffin / cookie was amazing!

    Ham & cheese Croissant

    The stars for Rao's Will fluctuate depending on what we are going for, but this morning was just average. My husband ordered the ham and cheese croissant and you have got to see the picture!! Looks just like a ham & cheese croissant except in the hands of a giant! Literally, they need to list it on their menu as The 2bite Mini Ham & Cheese Croissant! And when he ordered it, maybe the employee should say, they're about 2-3" minis. Do you want more than one? And another couple got up to ask for salt & pepper. They were told someone else must have it on their table. Ok, I love a good emoji, but I won't put the 2nd rofl one here as much as i want to! When a staff member laid a gentleman's breakfast wrap in front of him and walked away, it was hilarious to see him look down and around t the table with a question mark in a bubble above his head wondering why flatware and napkins didn't materialize as well. The experience was entertaining. The food decent. We will be back for gelato....probably tonight! (Insert FOURTH laughing emoji here).

    Great place to walk to for coffee during the weekdays if you live or visiting in Oak's Historic District.

    I stopped in the other day and got the best red velvet cake I have had in years. And I can not say enough about their cinnamon rolls!

    This review is for a cake I ordered from Sachi's for my mom's 80th birthday…read more Let me start by saying that the ordering process itself and the cake were fabulous. The cake was exactly what I requested, and everyone raved about how delicious it was. We chose lemon blueberry cake with buttercream and it was delectable. If taste is your primary concern, you won't be disappointed, and the cake will also be beautiful. The deduction of one star is due to a pickup issue on the day of my event. I was contacted the day prior and asked what time I planned to pickup the cake. As I was concerned about transporting such a large cake, I wanted to pick up on my way to the venue, so it would only need to be moved once. When I got to the bakery, there was a sign that stated they were closed temporarily. Of course I was panic stricken, and I called both the bakery number and cell number I messaged with previously, and I got no response. As I was on a tight time schedule, I had to leave to go to the event location to begin setting up, and we started looking for a cake alternative (thanks to my niece and daughter - and HEB - for coming through on that). After some time at the venue, I was contacted and apologized to for the mixup. Apparently there was a wedding emergency with another customer, and they left the mobile phone previously mentioned inside the bakery. They delivered to me onsite for the inconvenience. Without this incident it would have been a 5 star review all the way, but this put quite a kink in the day. I wouldn't hold this one thing against them, and would use their services in the future, and you should also give them a try if you're in need of a beautiful great tasting cake or other pastry.

    PLEASE BE CAREFUL ORDERING FOR YOUR WEDDING OR SPECIAL EVENT…read moreVery disappointed with my experience. I ordered from Sachi's specifically for my wedding, and they knew in advance that this order was for my wedding day. At 8 AM ON the morning of my wedding, they texted me saying my order wouldn't be ready until 4 PM because their oven was having issues, which was fine with me, but they also told me they might not be able to have the full quantity I ordered ready. I was then told there was no one available to deliver the order, even though delivery had previously been discussed, and they asked if I could come pick it up instead Can you imagine being asked to arrange a pickup at 4 PM on your own wedding day? I was already getting ready and had so much going on. I didn't have time to be on my phone trying to figure out a last-minute solution, and I also had no one available at that time who could pick up the order for me. Because of that, I had no choice but to cancel. I STILL have not received my refund I understand that unexpected issues can happen, but for an important event like a wedding, especially when they knew in advance what the order was for, I really wish the situation had been handled better. At the very least, I expected my refund to be processed promptly after I had to cancel This was honestly the last thing I needed to deal with on my wedding day. Please be cautious if you're planning to order from them for a wedding or any special event, because last-minute changes like this can put you in a very difficult situation
