    Back for breakfast today There good food,fast & nice service always here . We enjoyed our time every visit this

    Awful cookies. They tasted old and stale. I'm not sure why the packaging is crossed off
    Angel M.

    Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience at this bakery. My daughter and I each ordered a slice of red velvet cake, and my other daughter chose a slice of the coconut cake. The red velvet was extremely dry and honestly not even edible. I was very disappointed. The coconut cake was unfortunately no better. My husband also purchased a bag of chocolate chip cookies, and after being disappointed with the cakes, he gave each of us a cookie. Unfortunately, the cookies tasted old and stale as well. The customer service was also disappointing. We specifically ordered our desserts to eat there, but the employee put everything in a box and bag to-go. When we clarified that we were eating there, he seemed frustrated. I then asked for plates, and he gave them to us with a bad attitude while telling us that they were closing in 45 minutes. We spent $28 on three slices of cake and a bag of cookies, and unfortunately, we were disappointed with both the food and the customer service. I really wanted to enjoy this bakery, but based on our experience, I would not return.

    Breakfast sandwich
    Pretty D.

    I've passed by this bakery a few times when I visited Fashion Island. I finally decided to stop by here for breakfast, after the grand opening line for Levain Bakery was too long. Surprisingly, there was also a small line here before the cafe opened. You order at the counter, and they bring the food to you. Service was friendly and the workers greeted me. Inside seating has lots of tables, but I decided to sit outside. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with sausage, while my friend got the southwest breakfast sandwich. I noticed that the cafe got pretty busy later on in the morning. It seems like most people order pastries and coffee here. There's two bathrooms inside the cafe. Note that it's a bit tough to pull open the door since it was a bit jammed. The food did take awhile to come out, but when it did, I was excited to eat. The sandwich was pretty big. I could have shared or eaten half of my sandwich, but I devoured it. Their Manna bun was so fluffy and soft. I belive they make it from scratch! Everything about the breakfast sandwich tasted so fresh and delicious! I definitely recommend visiting this cafe! Service was great and friendly. Food is made from scratch and yummy. Next time, I'll try their pastries.

    Knock Knock Flight
    Caitlin V.

    I came here for their Knock Knock Flight. If you're an espresso/cold brew fan, this is for you. However, I'm an iced latte girly and these drinks were way too strong for me. The Knock Knock is an upscale version of a Ding Dong. They were good, but too sweet for me. My kids loved it though! And their chocolate chip cookie was outstanding. My husband even made a comment on how good it was.

    Cup of lentil soup
    Tina L.

    Tried their lentil soup (cup version) - this was good and hearty. Baguette pieces were a bit stale but dipped with the soup, it was fine. There was good seating. Several tables inside and outside. I did not expect the soup to come with several baguette pieces so that was nice. I was eyeing the spinach artichoke pastry and other pastries in the pastry display case. Super convenient that this bakery is located in Fashion Island. Will be coming back for their pastries.

    Egg sandwich
    Nayiri M.

    Wow! The trip exceeded my expectations. The egg sandwich on their special bread was absolutely perfect. A good amount of buttery eggs and crispy bacon wrapped in light and fluffy bread. The flight of coffee with the pastries was so much fun! Or only do you get sample many different knock knock flavors, but you also get to try a nice variety of hot and cold coffee. The pairings are also well done in that they do actually complement one another. The restaurant is clean and the service was great! We grabbed some cinnamon rolls to go which we'll have tomorrow morning. They look and smell amazing. This place is worth a visit!

    While shopping at @Fashion Island! , stopped by a bakery cafe called @Scratch Bakery Cafe , oh I over ordered! It's okay because I was in a comfortable space that welcomed me with great drinks, baked goods, breakfast, sandos and salads. If you want a guaranteed casual delicious spot to eat, get a latte or grab a snack, SCRATCH needs to be on your list. It's right between Bloomingdale's and Neiman Marcus. That Salmon Salad was perfection, loved the flavors of the salad and salmon fillet paired so well. Get any their breakfast sandwich on the Manna Bun because that fluffy bun is sooo delicious. Their sandwiches in any form has proven to be incredible from their Spicy Chicken on a French Roll or a Ruben on Marbel, it's yummy! Get their French Fries too because it's coated and extra crispy. It's a great spot for Mother's Day! Tyler the manager and his team are simply pro! Great service and attentive!

    Vegan Burrito
    Israel M.

    If you happen to be at Fashion Island and are looking for a hearty vegan breakfast option, Scratch Kitchen offers a surprisingly solid vegan burrito, though you'll need to make a few modifications since the burrito isn't actually vegan as ordered. The vegan burrito includes hash browns, onions, spinach, and vegan breakfast sausage, creating a filling breakfast that manages to satisfy without feeling overly heavy. The verde salsa ties everything together nicely, adding brightness and moisture that helps fuse the ingredients into a cohesive burrito with all the key elements you'd want in a good breakfast wrap. What really would've taken the burrito to the next level is the addition of a vegan egg option like Just Egg. That extra layer would've made the burrito exceptional rather than simply very good. Still, even without it, the burrito was flavorful, hearty, and satisfying enough that I'd order it again. One thoughtful touch is that the burrito is served cut in half, which works well if you're dining in. However, if you plan to customize it further or add your own ingredients, it's probably best to request that it not be cut in half beforehand.

    Not usually out this far in OC on a weekday, but since I was, I definitely needed to stop by and grab a snack. While I was debating between knock knocks, I saw a sign for the knock knock flight!!! Sold. First, I need to say that Sam was a gem. I cannot do coconut and after much assistance, I was able to get a second regular instead. I cannot say how much I enjoyed the sampler; each small knock knock came with a coffee pairing that I thought was pretty spot on. Knock Knocks: Classic - the institute was pretty solid when I had it, so I was a tad bit disappointed because I was hoping it would be soft like a hostess cake. However, I took the second one home and when I ate it later, it was the exact same consistency I wanted!! Bananas Foster - I was a little worried, because the flavour profile would be delicious, but so much could go wrong with the fresh banana and banana bread. However, the cake was moist and the bananas were not overwhelming; instead of slices of fresh banana, it was bits and spread in a nice layer. Dubai - thought I would really like this, but it was too rich for me. I mean, I still enjoyed it, but I could only have a corner cause it was so rich. Each coffee was unsweetened and were a good match for each sweet treat. I would probs swap the cold brew from Dubai to the coconut one and the macchiato to the Dubai bite. And have I mentioned Sam? The staff is always great, but Sam really went above and beyond for me.

    Been wanting to eat here and wow, it exceeded my expectations. I came here specifically for the Knock knock flight and it was so yummy. I think the coffee was a bit strong for me though so I wouldn't get it again. But the presentation and the fact that it comes with knock knocks is something different than any other flight i've had. I really want to go back to try their regular breakfast items and try more pastries. There was so much I wanted to try but didn't want to over indulge.

    Scratch Bakery and Cafe is absolutely delicious. Any time I am at Fashion Island I must stop by for their oatmeal chocolate chip cookie! They also have great drinks, food, and customer service. I love that they have indoor and patio seating and a great view of the fountain which often provides a relaxing atmosphere. I tried the avocado salad for the first time and was very impressed. The chicken was so soft and tender and the lemon vinaigrette paired with the flavors perfectly. They have so many great pastries, I highly recommend giving them a try.

    Traditional Cobb Salad
    Darese S.

    Such a great experience at Scratch Bakery Cafe in Newport Beach! Everything is always so delicious and fresh, and the service makes every visit so much better. Alex is so amazing and is always so helpful. You can tell the staff really cares about making sure customers have a great experience! The ambiance is welcoming and fun. Love the music here too! One of my favorite lunch spots.

    Outdoor seating

    Not going to lie this desert hit the spot! We got the banana foster knock knock, it was surprisingly sooooo yummy. Reminded me of a chocopie but elevated, IYKYK

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to ask is this a café that is accessible from outside of the mall or is it next to an anchor store? Thank you.?

    Having breakfast at Rose Café & Bakery for the first time was a great experience. It's a nice…read morelittle quaint spot located on PCH and Orchid. Parking can be a little tricky depending on the day because of street sweeping, so keep that in mind. The café offers both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a nice option. It can get pretty busy inside since it's counter-service and the dining area is on the smaller side. The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and the service was friendly with smiles all around. There were three of us in our party--my mother, my grandson, and me. My mother ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, I had the California breakfast burrito, and my grandson ordered the Rose Benedict with the hollandaise sauce on the side. The portions were fair and satisfying, leaving everyone happy with their meal. If you're in the Corona del Mar area and looking for a quick breakfast, brunch, or snack, I definitely recommend giving Rose Café & Bakery a try. It's a charming neighborhood café with great food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

    Honestly? I am such a fan. When i order a sandwich, THIS is what im looking for: a good, hearty,…read morescoobydoo-esque sandwich. My sandwich was decently hefty which i appreciate and VERY filling. The ONLY reason I give this 4 stars is because it is a NIGHTMARE trying to park and/or eat here on weekends. Long wait and it's a pain to try and order inside because it's packed to the brim. If you want to order take out though i think that's a slightly better option during busy hours since there's a kiosk outside that you can order from.
