It has the kind of warmth and character that only a truly independent, family-run bakery can offer. The star of the show for us is the Derby Cake -- a gorgeous layered chocolate cake filled with whipped cream, fresh bananas, and strawberries woven between each layer. It's indulgent without being overly rich, and the combination of flavours works beautifully together. What makes it even more special is that you can tell every cake is genuinely handmade. Each one has that unmistakably homemade look to it -- slightly unique in its own way, which only adds to the charm. No two are exactly alike, and that's exactly the point. Be warned though -- these cakes are popular for good reason, and they sell out quickly. We've learned to order ahead to avoid disappointment, and we'd strongly recommend doing the same. It's the kind of place that reminds you of the joy of supporting a local business that genuinely takes pride in what they make. A wonderful neighbourhood bakery that deserves all the love it gets.

    It is a busy, hectic place, but that also says a lot about how much people like it. No matter when…read moreI come, it usually seems packed: inside, outside, and in the different seating areas. I usually have to circle around a few times before I can figure out where I might find a corner to sit down and get some work done. It is not the calmest place to work, especially during busy times, but once you find a spot, it can be a nice place to settle in with coffee and a laptop. The biggest selling point is definitely the location. It is right by the beach in Pacifica. Soul Grind is also Pacifica's first coffee roastery, and they roast their coffee in-house, which gives the place more personality than a standard coffee shop. The whole vibe is very beachy, casual, and local, with a mix of surfers, people grabbing coffee after being near the water, and others trying to work or meet up. They have a pretty large coffee menu, plus food options like pastries, sandwiches, quiche, melts, and breakfast items.

Yes it's popular and there are lot of people working making coffee drinks and in the kitchen and serving food. Everything stops at the one cashier in a line that goes out the door and around the corner. We went on. Sunday and wanted coffee drinks and pasties to go. It's the same line that you would order if you are dining in. The cashier does everything from taking the order to getting pastries out of the case. Surely she can use a teammate. The drinks were on point. Ordered a charcoal latte and dirty chai. The almond lemons cake piece was tiny for $7.95. Banana choco walnut for $4.75 was better. Be prepared to pay 75 cents more for almond milk or oat milk substitute. Not worth a long wait just for coffee and pasties. Maybe next time will try some of their breakfast items as a sit down.

    Tea world is the best Boba in Pacifica. No question about it. They've been in business for over a…read moredecade and the quality has remained roughly the same. The quality will vary a bit depending on who the boba-rista is as well as time of day because the boba may be sitting if you come at the end of the day, but essentially it's the same product. I have completed a stamp card here, which is kind of an expensive journey, about $7 to $10 per drink. I have had no issues with the service here. The ambiance is very much take out, there is a small bench to sit on and two chairs next to a trash can. In my opinion this business is best enjoyed along with a walk!

Not sure what the guy name was but he was wearing an orange shirt that says Arizona with a star on it (top right corner) of his shirt, he was young Caucasian male, he over heard my conversation with my mother about how I was stressed out about my day. And he asked me if I was stressed out about my father adding ice cream to his Thai ice tea. I thought that was funny, he turned my really bad day into a wonderful day. I felt way better. Simple kindness acts like that is what matters. He's great. He deserves a raise. He's always working when I come. He's absolutely awesome. Drinks always turn out to be fresh and very delicious. Establishment is always super clean and well put together. Staff members are always kind. Very helpful. Quick and efficient. Thank you Tea world staff for being the absolute best!

I'm always hunting for spots like this because I have a weakness for those over-the-top, Instagram-worthy desserts that look like diabetes in a dish. Like most places in this genre, A Buttercup is small, modern, and minimalist with limited seating. If you plan to go, aim for off-hours unless you enjoy waiting in line for sugar. The decor is cute and trendy, perfect for photos if that's part of your dessert ritual. As they say, "you eat with your eyes first," and when it comes to presentation, this place definitely gets an A+. The desserts look stunning and set high expectations. Unfortunately, that's where things started to crumble. It's like going to see your favorite artist live. You've watched the videos, memorized the songs, and paid for the experience. But instead of the electric performance you imagined, you get someone lip-syncing and barely connecting with the crowd. That was this place in dessert form. We ordered the Mango Bingsoo on our first visit, and when it arrived, we were surprised by how small the portion was. The guy next to us even looked over and said, "Whatever that is, I'm getting that next time." He shouldn't have. The Bingsoo looked great but was bland, and the "snow" was more chunky ice than soft shave. The Thai Tea Roti was also not what I expected. It came with Thai tea ice cream and sauce alongside a roti that was fried to a crunch. Interesting idea, just not the best execution. The sauce and ice cream needed a stronger Thai tea flavor to balance the crispy roti, and the flavors never quite came together. Overall, A Buttercup nails the aesthetics but misses the flavor. If you're here for the photos, you'll be happy. If you're here for the taste, you'll leave with a full camera roll and an unsatisfied sweet tooth.
