    Rhapsody cake slice
    Mariah F.

    I didn't know this cute little shop existed! I've only been to the other location. It was a fun surprise to see as we were looking for a dessert spot after dinner. We walked in & the aromas were enticing. It was nice and warm inside. Lots of options for it being 630pm which was a great surprise as well. My favorite cake was fully in stock! The rhapsody. It's a chocolate cake with chocolate ganache & raspberry topping. It is so delicious & not overly sweet despite the description. The ladies behind the counter were so friendly and sweet and we were in and out so quick. They are nice an efficient. I thoroughly enjoyed my cake slice & can't wait to finish it tomorrow!

    Always so good the quality of the food is amazing. Love that their options change monthly for variety. The service is pretty quick which I appreciate. Wish they would warm the pastries for you However the Dubai chocolate bar is definitely not worth the $20 dollars. Barely tastes the pistachio.

    Josephine (berry sauce not in the picture) $5.50 4/22/2023

    I had Josephine - crisp pastry shell with custard inside with berry sauce on the side. Personally, I did not want the berry sauce so I just had the custard with the pastry shell. It was sooo good! It did not take more than five minutes to finish this giant custard. Despite this being a nice Saturday late afternoon, we were able to secure a table outside the shop. All the other tables were occupied. Line got long very fast inside the shop as well but it gets short very fast. Nice little spot for great desserts to get!

    A cute little dessert shop close to the UO campus, sandwiched between Prince Puckler's Ice Cream and Hey, Neighbor Pizza. After eating dinner downtown, I wanted a sweet treat and found this nearby and still open. Upon entry you see large dessert cases filled with pies, cakes, tarts, cookies, etc. so many delicious choices! Choices, choices, choices---after much debate, We got the chocolate eclair and the malted banana cake. Both were really delicious. I thought the malted banana cake was exceptionally tasty...really good banana flavor, very light and the frosting was not overly sweet. The choux pastry was a little soft, but it could have gotten that way due to transportation--we took our treats to go instead of eating on premise. The staff is quite friendly and when asked for recommendations, without hesitation we were given the favorites. This is a smaller version of their main shop so, there is no inside seating and you have to sit outside in the covered patio. If you're looking something to satisfy your sweet tooth and you're close to campus--check it out. Note that the espresso bar shuts down about 9pm, so you won't be able to get anything hot to drink, not even tea.

    Wow amazing service and food today. Thank you for the best cinnamon rolls ever. I can't wait to be one back. Very clean Avery great decor. No line and easy in and out. But I wanted everything.

    Sweet life is an adorable local bakery with two locations in Eugene. This one is the smaller version by the UO campus. The employees are always so welcoming and friendly here. Although this is the smaller store they still have a pretty large variety of baked goods. I like that you can get individual slices of cake here. They also serve coffee and drinks which is nice. There's no indoor seating but plenty of outdoor. They also do custom cakes and desserts for occasions like birthdays, holidays, and more. Definitely try this spot if you haven't yet!

    Lime coconut petit four (mini layer sponge cake) with a tea, enjoyed outside
    Ilona S.

    The little offspring of Sweet Life on Monroe in Eugene. With excellent service and a great selection, and easier parking. I love to sit outside on one of their four picnic benches and drink some tea with a sweet treat on a sunny afternoon. Perfection. This time I opted for a lime coconut petit four (small sponge layer cake, frosted with icing) which was super delicious. And a cup of tea. Love love love

    I came here to get a sweet treat. There are a bunch of desserts from croissants to cake slices. I got the mini cake bites are they were solid, but it was pretty expensive. My friends got the creme brulee, tiramisu, and some sort of puff with a cherry sauce. I probably wouldn't come back here, but I am glad I tried it.

    The cake sponge is dense and tastes like it was pre frozen. Prices are premium for not great products.

    I always love swinging by Palace Bakery and slipping to the back to see what's going on through the…read morelarge viewing window showing the bakers at work. Don't skip this part when you drop by. A friend warned me that Saturday market was happening so parking might be difficult but the 30 minute and one hour slots in front of the bakery are very helpful. I ordered a 20 ounce Matcha with water, a 20 ounce iced black black tea infused with vanilla bean -- it's incredibly refreshing! -- and one of their amazing freshly squeezed orange juices. It's a bakery to be sure but don't let that fool you: the beverages here are just THAT GOOD. One drink doesn't feel like it's going to be enough... and in my experience, it's usually not. There are staff are all very helpful...there but today one young woman stood out fif only I could remember her name!) but she has glasses with hair tied back and was going through the line taking orders to ensure that customers were greeted and welcomed and had a chance to place their orders in advance. Their jalapeño biscuits are outstanding -- don't skip the honey butter... it deserves to be slathered on -- and if you're looking for comfort food, try their banana bread loaf or their zucchini bread. One more thing that I find really wonderful here: at 2 o'clock there espresso goes on sale. Yes. You heard that right. So for those of us who feel that coffee should happen all through the day... This is your place for an espresso deal.

    Palace Bakery (now known as Palace Coffee Roasters) is has been around Eugene for decades, but I've…read morenever actually been here until recently. When I was growing up we didn't really visit bakeries, I don't drink coffee, and my mom was a black coffee only sort of person, so not really much need. Whilst visiting Saturday Market I stopped in with my tired, grumpy toddler to get her a hot chocolate. I got myself one too, and it was excellent. The whipped cream especially was nice; I am positive it's made from heavy whipping cream and it was so yummy I just wanted to eat some whipped cream. I know my kiddo enjoyed hers, especially if the state of her face and clothes was any indication. I've had a lot of hot chocolate, including from Mindy's in Chicago which many like to claim as the best (it's good, but honestly a bit too thick for me), but I think Palace may have the best. The secret is that they use ganache for their hot chocolate. It's the ganache that they sell in the shop, so it's easy to acquire. The staff member mentioned that she likes to dip strawberries in it, and she said they keep it in the fridge and it stays good for a while. I'm not sure I'll pick some up this time since we're heading into the warm weather months, but we'll be getting some (or having my sister send some) as we move into autumn for sure. I will say that if you get hot chocolate you will need to check work--TWICE I asked for whipped cream, at two different visits, and they didn't put any on (though they left space for it, so either fill it with chocolate or add the cream please). I was planning to get a maple bar here, but when I saw them changed my mind--they didn't look particularly appetizing. They had several other pastries though so it was an easy swap out for a kouign amann, my favorite pastry, and a marionberry strudel. Both were great. The marionberry strudel was particularly special since marionberries are more tart blackberry variant native to Marion County, Oregon; marionberries are rarely found outside Oregon, and if so not much beyond the border states. It was overflowing with marionberry and hit the spot, and my little one was a fan too. There was a good amount of seating, too, spread across two rooms. There's an entrance both from the Park Street side and Pearl; on the west side you'll get to see the bakers hard at work. They had some huge breakfast burritos that looked really good, but since I wasn't heading home immediately we took a pass on them--this time. Parking is street only, though it's not unlikely that you'll find parking on Pearl, Broadway, Oak, or Park.
