Let's talk cookies: in general their cookies are a strange texture. If you are from the South the cookies are tougher than we like. However, the flavors are good. I suggest the peanut butter chocolate chip cookie. Amazing. Not as big of a fan of the ginger molasses. I like the old fashioned ginger molasses cookies my grandmother makes, more brown than black, thin, exceptionally chewy, large and round. These are thick, dry, and bitter. Not a fan but maybe it is cultural and this is how the ginger molasses cookies are made in the West. The pumpkin spice cookie is like a cake cookie. Very good. Definitely get the pumpkin spice.

Nice addition to this small strip near campus for sweet treats! We often come here if our group of friends want to choose different things for dessert. Sweet life Petit is located right next to a tea bar and a famous ice cream shop. Sweet life Petit's wait time in line doesn't compare to it's original Sweet Life Patisserie location, but don't be surprised if you have to wait 5 mins or so before you order. There is only outdoor seating at this location. Not good if you're coming in the rainy winter, but a lovely ambiance in the summer when you're sitting on their picnic table under a cute string of lights. You can NEVER go wrong ordering any of their cheesecakes. Trust me, I've had them all. Overall, a good variety of dessert choices in a order-to-go style set up. We like to enjoy dessert here and the go for a walk around the neighborhood with our dog. read more

The best cinnamon rolls I've had in all of Eugene! Also tried the red velvet cream cheese, Whoopie pie that is also so amazing!!

Beautiful yummy cupcakes! We tried the chocolate cherry and the birthday cake flavors.

Find your favorite and forget about it. There is so much for you to experience here and so satisfying. This is a place to explore your sweet tooth, don't let those pesky cavities get in the way either. I always enjoy their selections of cakes, my favorite was a raspberry chocolate ganache, that smashed my taste buds with so much richness they where dancing to the sweet tunes. It's also fun to try their deserts of the month, I've never found disappointment shoveling spoonfuls of grade A sugar into my mouth. I do have a single complaint, which is the wait time can be excessive, and even with all that time to make a choice, I end up still not knowing what I want cause there are so many wonderful options, which then leads me to getting way more then I really need. I suppose this isn't the worst thing to happen, also wait times are usually only long on weekends, and around holidays. read more

In all aspects 5 Stars! Super friendly staff, amazing food, quick and prompt service! Not only were they amazing in delivering quality food, they gave me a dog biscuit for my Golden... Such an amazing experience, HIGHLY recommend! read more

Love sweet life, I wish they had sugar free options. They do have vegan, gluten free, beautiful deserts great coffee. Yes a thousand times. read more

Sweet Life Petite - Cutest outside seating for summer - Desserts Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Notice traveling foodies * this is a must stop for baked goodness beyond your wildest Meyer lemon tart! This is where birthdays are spent after dinner for most the families special celebrating. From the basic molasses cookie to the napoleon to the delicate tarts and cheesecakes. Just say yes to dessert and get to one of these premier Eugene spots. Trust! read more

What I love most about this location is that it is 1. right next door to Prince Pucklers and 2. close to the U of O campus. Even if you aren't a student, this area of Eugene is so fun to visit. As others have mentioned, the shop itself is a much smaller version of the original Sweet Life, but they still have a good selection of pastries and desserts to choose from. And as I mentioned, Prince Pucklers is next door so you can get that brownie AND some ice cream to go with it, all while supporting two great local businesses :) read more

The name "sweet life" is a perfect fit for this decadent and delicious bakery. When you walk into this quaint little shop you'll see a giant case with different desserts for any type of person. From classic pumpkin pie in the fall to piggy shaped petit fours filled with maple bacon they have something to satisfy any sweet tooth. Some of my favorites: Zesty Lime tart Perfectly baked cookies Homemade marshmallows Cheesecake (any flavor!) Chocolate mousse Although those are my personal favorites I have a feeling that anything you order will be devoured and enjoyed. They have espresso drinks as well as hot chocolate which I highly recommend on a cold day. If I had one critique it would be to please heat the hot chocolate until it is HOT especially when it's cold outside. Our hot chocolates were more like warm chocolates and needed warming up when we got home (only a 2 minute drive away) because they weren't steamed for long enough. Other than that it was perfect for a cold night and not too sweet. I would be so down for some of those homemade marsh mellows if that were to become an added option! This location only has outdoor seating so take that into consideration if you come here on a cold night. They are open until 11pm everyday and on busy nights you might have to park a couple blocks away since many people park to go to the popular Prince Pucklers ice cream shop right next door. They also have another location on Monroe Street that's even bigger with tables to sit inside and even more pastries and cakes to choose from! read more

Great cake. Organic. And they make their lines go quick. I enjoyed the experience for my birthday. Bought a small bevarian cream cake with a cool chocolate piece with flower art on it. It's worth the price. read more

So Sweet Life Petite is the small version of the Patisserie! It's definitely worth going to, the desserts are just the same and super amazing. But it's definitely a smaller version and doesn't have near as much stuff. No coffee or ice cream at this one. But this place is seriously so good and it's right next to Prince Puckler's which does have ice cream! Overall, this area is really cute, lots of outside seating too! And right near campus Go check it out! read more

The selection here is great. I came here with my family to check out U of O. The pie here is especially good, I bought a slice of peach raspberry pie. I am a pie snob, but fruit pies are simple to make, but they can be ruined if the fruit is bland or it has wimpy crust. The peaches were intense and fresh. For crust I want something that's almost a shortbread cookie texture, I don't care for butter crusts, this one was not butter but something else, I forgot what she told me, but the the slice was perfect. If peach raspberry pie weren't always a tad soupy (it always is} I could have picked up the slice by the crust and eaten it like pizza. I also bought a slice of a thick bittersweet chocolate cake with strawberries on top. I think it's a cake, the texture was more like cheesecake. So rich, so good. If you're going to get dessert, come here. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! The people working are always so kind and helpful. Love the vegan and gluten-free options, and that the store is open until 10. My favorite spot for quality desserts in town. Thanks for supporting my sweet tooth :) read more

Great offerings, the quality is top notch and there is decent variety. I like the monthly menu changes. Went in today and the customer service was pretty poor. I can understand if customer service slips a bit when things are busy, but this was a slow rainy afternoon and I was the only one in the store. It was a disappointing experience. read more

This 19th street Sweet Life location is supportive, inclusive, accepting of diversity, and I feel it's inviting. The other location is not totally accepting of diversity. There have been times when I have had problems with the staff. As if they have a problem with me because​ I am a transgender woman. In another​ life,​ I would frequent the Monroe location​ and NEVER treated poorly! I give this review a 5 star as it is about the 19th street location, not the Monroe​ Street​ location. read more

Gluten free greatness!!! I've been twice and every single thing I've gotten has been delicious! This time I got the strawberry lemonade gluten free cupcake and the gluten free cheese bun. Wow! The cupcake is a smaller size, kind of in-between mini and regular. The cake itself is moist and delicious. The frosting is so good, not too sweet, and the flavors are delicious. The cheese bun was light and very similar to a normal roll. I can't attest to the other pastries here but everything looks beautiful and they are also very nice when you have questions. read more

I heard great things about this bakery and everything looked great. Unfortunately the prices seemed too high for me for Eugene. A whole red velvet cake was $40 and compared to the taste did not seem worth it. I did not like that there was a raspberry compote part of the cake, which is unusual for any red velvet cake and I don't think was advertised. I also did not like it was not a traditional cream cheese frosting. The butter cream was hard and didn't have much flavor. These are just my particular preferences though and nothing against the quality which was very good. I'm unsure if I would return. My friends tried the caramel torts and loved them, so I'd highly recommend those! read more

Absolutely the cutest little shop in the cute town. Came in for some coffee and a few pastries. Had a huge cinnamon bun and the pecan chewy bar. However I also ordered a cake over the phone in California and had it delivered with care to my daughters for their bday. Cake was super delicious and very cute design. Definitely recommend coming here! read more

We also got a creamy Italian soda & coffee!! I was happy with my selection of sweets read more

Sweet Life Petite - Desserts Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Customer was in sweet life without a mask so me and my boyfriend waited outside until he left. When I came in I asked if there was a reason the person didn't have a mask on, one of the girls behind the counter mumbled something rude under her breath then turned around and shook her head. Then they both proceeded to act like we were not there. Sorry I don't understand why me asking why someone doesn't have a mask on is such a problem. How do I know that man doesn't have covid? I don't. If I could give 0 stars I would. Definitely would recommend showing your employees basic customer service. read more

Tons of choices from savery to sweet. Very nicely organized and the place was welcoming. All for take out. The ginger molAsses cookie was great and the chocolate chunk. Now we're working on a peanut butter brownie and Black bottom cupcake. Decently priced. read more

I first came here in 2008 while on a visit with a friend. You'd think if you've been in one bakery, you've seen them all. That's not the case with this place. Fast forward 9 years and I'm on a vacation with my wife and two boys. Guess where the FIRST place I wanted to go after years of telling my wife it was the best bakery I have ever been too! They were not disappointed and I walked away feeling pride that, indeed, I have good taste! Lol. The service is fast, friendly and very accepting of all people (we are a Deaf family) without so much of feeling out of place. There is plenty of places to sit and enjoy your dessert. Their Key Lime Tart is to die for and pick any cookie you want, cuz OMG! I love bakeries and this is he best yet. Happy munching! read more

Located in the campus area next door to prince pucklers and across the street from beppe and giannas. I opt for this location over the original any chance I get. The staples are all here, maybe missing a couple items but the line is significantly smaller. My favorite here is the german chocolate cake. The outside layer of cake can get a little rich so I usually scrape it off. The eclair is a close second for me. My wife is a huge fan of their cream cheese brownies. My only gripe is the parking on the street can be hit or miss. read more

Not very pleased with my visit this morning. I come here frequent and did not get the service and or quality of food as usual. Bummer

I just happened to notice Sweet Life Petite as I was leaving Oolong Bar next door. Of course, any place that has desserts deserves a look inside. Oh my, those sweet desserts looked tempting but I had to resist because I'm seriously controlling my intake of sugars. But wait, they have savory items too! The Cowgirl Quiche got my attention and I ordered a slice of it. The lady at the counter heated it up for me, and I eagerly ate every bit of it outside at one of their tables in front. Delicious! read more

Went in for some dessert and coffee with my fam. Pastries were good. Coffee wasn't allowed. The staff had decided that it wasn't busy enough a night to offer the owners whole menu so the coffee machine was "off". If you aren't going to offer your full menu at all hours I think it should be specified. Would have gone somewhere else with full offerings. The blonde girl and dish jockey should Google "hours of operation". read more

Pastries were good, not the best I've had, but still good. Lines were a bit long, but I didn't mind because it gave me time to choose what I wanted. They have lots of options! Yay! Will return on my next trip to Eugene. read more

I've never had a bad dessert here but I have to say the lemon bars are my absolute favorite. I could literally eat my weight in them. If I go to another dessert place in my life i will die a happy woman. read more

As much as I like the original Sweet Life... if you are looking to take your dessert with you, this is even better! The selection seems to be the same and the line is MUCH more manageable. As far as my favorite dessert, you can't go wrong with their magnificent Black Bottom Cupcake! read more

Hip. Fun. Good food. Happening. Great place to stop and grab desert at. Bit of a line, but that goes with being hip.

Sweetness overload! Amazing pastries, goodies and drinks in this new establishment! If you have a sweet tooth amd are in the area, you must stop in. Just on the outskirts of the University of Oregon in Eugene Oregon sits this little gem. WOW is all I have yo say. If you stop in, you are in for a real treat! read more

Great quiche, the espresso is pressed well. $5 card minimum, but you'll probably spend that here. Their tables out front are perfect for a breakfast hangout. read more

Sweet Life Petite - Desserts Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Normally I have a great experiences in their cafes, But recently there was a short feminine looking person with black curly hair who was extremely rude to me one morning. This completely turned me off to this location. Proceed at your own risk read more

If you need your sweet life fix quick stop in here. Parking is hard like the location downtown but you can get in and out so much quicker. You don't have seating inside and the selection is smaller but the same as downtown. And you can stop here after you eat somewhere close and get it to go or eat outside. All of their desserts are too notch. Their dairy free desserts are amazing. You wouldn't even know they're missing dairy. I'm super addicted to sugar so trust me. They make great cheesecakes and eclairs as well as whatever else you see in their glass cases. read more

Keep an eye out for day old deals! Caramel latte (with the sauce*)? Best I've ever had. Orange cardamom morning bun? Best I've ever had Sweet life never lets me down read more

They're always consistently excellent. My little kids always insist on stopping here for cupcakes and cookies. And my spouse always gets rave reviews when he brings cakes and treats in for his team. We've only been going there for 15 years, but we've never had anything but great stuff! And omg that passion fruit curd berry tart! read more

I am always on the hunt for words like "no sugar added," "gluten free" and "organic" so when I found a spot that makes *desserts* like this...I was sold. (Almost) guilt free indulging! Everything I have had is fresh, creative, and delicious. I love the mini cheesecakes, and all the pies, and well...pretty much everything I've had. There aren't tables inside, so either plan to pick up something to go, or enjoy the outdoor tables. Pretty lights and a nice place to sit out near the bustle of campus! read more

Amazing chocolate. Are you a sweets-snob? Looking for something to blow your mind? I got gifted a bar of salted almond chocolate and it was pretty much perfection. I will be looking to modify all my future trips to Eugene in order to add some of their delights to my life from now on. Not to be missed. read more

This is as close as it gets to a European style bakery and I love it here. Everything is always fresh and delicious. When in Eugene we always eat at the Fisherman's Market and then save room to walk to the Sweet Life and relax with a piece of cake for dessert, and a small box of pastries to go! Please come to Roseburg!! read more
