    ughhhh i think this is now one of my favorite bakeries ... there is usually a line on the wknds in the morning. love that they are pet friendly. they have indoor and outdoor seating. after a short wait, i think i wanted to order one of everything. i ended up getting: chocolate chip cookie manna buns (everything bagel seasoning) banana bread oatmeal almond chocolate chip cookies pistachio raspberry butter cookies the manna buns were my favorite. need to go back this wknd to grab another bag or two lol. def also need to grab brunch here one wknd. friendly staff and clean space. parking: located in fashion island. scratch bakery is in front of Bloomingdale's and Neiman Marcus. plenty of parking.

    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.

    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

    I came in with no expectations and left genuinely impressed. Moulin is usually my go-to café, but lately the quality hasn't been the same, so this visit was a refreshing surprise. At first glance, the place looks unassuming, but it's easy to see why there's a line during weekend brunch hours. Everything is made from scratch, and the difference is obvious in every bite. The pastries are so good. My favorites are the rye pastrami sandwich, pistachio croissant, and churro cruffin. Even after sitting in my car on the drive home, everything stayed impressively crisp. They also offer a coffee flight called the "Knock Knock," which is a fun and unique experience that satisfies both your caffeine and sugar cravings.

    Assortment of cookies to check out!

    Came here for a quick dessert and the Knock Knock cake was very good. Chocolatey with ganache on the outside and creamy with buttercream on the inside. Perfect combo! The bakery cafe is full of delicious-looking cookies and breads. Would definitely come back for another visit when craving for some sweets.

    This is a fairly simple review as I only came here to try one thing: their distinctive Knock Knock, which is a chocolate-coated chocolate cake with a creamy center. It was served chilled. It was delicious and indulgent and definitely freshly made. The cake was soft and moist, the chocolate coating thick and tasty, the cream creamy. I would describe the Knock Knock as a Twinkie on steroids. I went there at the end of the day so the cafe was empty, yet pleasant. It has a nice environment. The gentleman behind the counter who served me was friendly. I'm not sure I would try the Knock Knock again, as there were other pastries and baked goods that looked great. An added plus for Newport Beach: their prices were reasonable for the quality of items being sold. I'll try something else on my next visit.

    Great bakery and cafe that offers a wide variety of tasty treats and drinks. The space is large with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. The pastries are very delicious and pair well with the coffee. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

    This bakery and restaurant is rad! I've never even been here before and I've been missing out for so long! They have a few gluten-free items that are amazing like the macaroons and the chocolate chip cookies and this passionfruit dessert that looks incredible. The sweet girl Uesenia that helped me today is very patient!

    This bakery/cafe is located at Fashion Island. After finishing a nearby appointment, I came here for an early lunch on a weekday. It's a fast casual cafe where you order at the counter. The bakery items all looked wonderful but I was after one of their sandwiches and chose a breakfast sandwich plate - the Monte Cristo. I also purchased a large hot vanilla latte. There are only 6 or 7 tables inside, far too few. There are a number of outdoor tables but on this cold and windy day the indoor tables were all taken. I had been given a number for my order delivery to be placed on my table. As I worriedly eyed the prospect of having to sit outside, a small table inside became vacant and I quickly pounced on it. While they deliver your food to your table, they call your name to pick up your drinks. When they called my name to pick up my latte at the counter, I sprinted there and back before someone else took my table. The latte was served far too hot. I couldn't drink it during my meal so carried it with me after I finished eating. It took about half an hour before I could even sip it. It was a standard but solid vanilla latte, nothing out of the ordinary. As far as my meal, the Monte Cristo wasn't a TRUE monte cristo. Honestly, I think the only place to find a real deep fried one around here is at Disneyland. But this faux Monte Cristo had the proper components - a French toast sandwich with melted cheese, turkey, and ham. They had syrup for dipping rather than the traditional berry jam. It was admittedly very delicious. The hash brown on the plate was exceptional - perfectly crisp outside with soft potato inside. You'd think that, surrounded by wonderful bakery items, the employees would seem happy but no, not a single smile. Maybe they all burned their tongues on the coffee.

    Scratch Bakery was such a cute stop in Newport Beach. Everything felt fresh, cozy, and easy, and it's the kind of place that works whether you want coffee, breakfast, or just a little bakery moment while shopping around Fashion Island. The vibe was relaxed, the space was clean, and it had that casual Newport feel that makes you want to sit and stay for a bit.

    Connie Y.

    OMG best bakery ever! Get the knock knock flight you will thank me later. Everything is amazing and delicious here. It's in Fashion Island. The coffees and food are good here but the baked goods are for sure the star. Will be back every time we are at the mall. Happy Yelping!

    My friend and I usually come here for a post-workout pastry and coffee catch-up, but this was our first time grabbing a bite to eat. We ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup, and it was perfect for the cooler weather. I loved that they kept everything traditional while elevating the flavors. Service is always great, and we consistently enjoy their drinks and pastries. It's also a nice place to sit outside, get some fresh air, do a little people-watching, and relax before heading out to shop.

    The Wife and I went to fashion Friday decided to eat at scratch bakery Café I had the Italian on French roll. It was wonderful delicious mortadella, salami provolone roasted red peppers with oil and vinegar dressing. The sandwich was amazing. I tried their Redskin potato salad delicious I can't remember what my wife had because mine taste so good. I wasn't interested. They greeted us took our order very pleasant. Very nice café with lots of outside seating thank you again. We will be back.

    I finally realized they have an awesome Chipotle Aioli you can put on your sandwich.

    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.?

    Hello, we’re located right across from Neiman Marcus, next door to R&D Kitchen which is right off the entrance closest to the Christmas tree. Hope this helps.

One of our guests asked to take one home with her. The croissants were amazing and we will need to get the almond chocolate one next time. The Pear Charlotte is a cake filled with cream surrounded by what appears to be lady fingers topped with a thick pear slice. We had not asked for pricing, but receipt shows the bakery is pricey.

And please don't get the raisin roll with glaze on top. Get the regular one. Otherwise, you might as well go to a Donut shop. They also have daily baked baguettes, great sandwiches, imported cheeses, cakes, coffees etc... There is parking out front. The space has somewhat limited seating. Most of it being outdoors on the nice patio. Most people pick up their orders to go. The girls who work there are all so beautiful and friendly and their prices are really reasonable.

Timing & Atmosphere: * Avoid Weekends: I would not recommend coming here on a weekend.

It's not "table service" - they don't come back and check you or help with water or drinks, etc. Whatever you want you must return to the counter. But service at the counter is very friendly and helpful. The ambiance is an outdoor cafe....noisy neighbors, wind when it blows, dogs, all the regular stuff - good seating and umbrellas with some areas naturally shaded...lots of tables relative to the size of the shop. Very friendly staff. Why do my reviews get over 1,000 views every time we visit a new place? We don't know but it seems consistent. We feature very critical reviews - we rate high but include serious critiques. Maybe that's it.
