Prosciutto croissant and lavender matcha latte
Rain M.

The scones and croissants are amazing! Such a special little hidden gem of a bakery. I wanted to try everything! Coffee was so-so but the lavender matcha latte was great!

What sold me on Sweet Pea Bakery in Arroyo Grande is its variety of flavors with offerings that change daily and the option for regular and mini sized cupcakes so you can try different flavors. I figured four regulars which actually aren't that big and 2 minis to share over 2 days would be perfect. As soon as I had my first bite of the raspberry champagne, I regretted not getting more especially since they were closed the rest of our stay. Whereas most cupcake frostings are so sweet, I wipe off 3/4 of it before eating, these had the perfect sweetness not to overpower the flavor it gives the base. First choice of Raspberry champagne that thankfully I got 2 so I didn't have to share, with salted caramel a close second, peanut butter chocolate and mini cookies and cream tied, and a pass on the mini lemon in the future. Went back twice 3 months later for champagne strawberry, more salted caramel, and peanut butter chocolate and discovered another favorite, the s'mores that I had to get another the next day. Two months later, a full dozen including 4 raspberry champagne, 6 s'mores, 1 salted caramel, and 1 chocolate strawberry to bring back. Yep, I'm a fan. Note: Champagne ones are only available about once every 3-4 weeks unless someone special orders and they make extras.

We stopped by to pick up some macarons but unfortunately they didn't have time to make any that day (before Easter). I ended up picking up some mini cupcakes instead. We got a regular size lemon, 2 mini red velvets and 2 salted caramel. The mini cupcakes were tasty little bites and we enjoyed them. The lemon was dense, more cornbread like but had great lemon flavor with lemon curd. Overall delicious treats.

Mixed Berry Scone - very dry.

The workers behind the counter are very nice and seem happy. The quick walk in and go is convenient. If you have been here before be aware that even though the pastry is good it has lost its freshness that it had a year ago and more. The fairy buns have lost a lot of their flavor. The scones have become even more dry. It'd be nice for them to rehire whoever they have lost that resulted in the reduction of quality.

Salted Caramel, chocolate and a GF scone and cookie. Looks yummy!

Tuesday is Gluten Free Day. Missed it, but they had some GF treats. The staff was friendly and the ship smelled like haven't. A great place to go while your waiting for your car at the car wash. Everything in the store looked well taken care of and replenished quickly. You can call in for orders. I would give more stars but have to taste the amazing creations first.

Brownie

Omg as soon as I walked in, I was in heaven. Cute little shop, and the employees were busy making fresh baked goods as I looked around. There was such a variety of options. I didn't know where to start. But I soon recovered. Hehe .. There was biscotti, brownies, cupcakes, cookies, and scones. They also have coffee and tea drinks available to order. I chose a brownie and an almond and maple biscotti, salted caramel mini cupcake, red velvet mini cupcake, mixed berry scone, as well as a chocolate chip cookie. I would've probably ordered more but it was only for me so I could only get what I knew I would eat. (No i didn't eat all in one day!) the cupcakes were delicious - just the right amount and super moist. The almond biscotti was very good. And the mixed berry scone was heavenly. The brownie was delicious! the cookie was just OK. It wasn't my favorite. I couldn't put my finger on what it was that was missing. I'd definitely go back next time I'm visiting the area! Wonderful bakery.

Salted caramel mini cupcakes and Red velvet cupcakes

I love love love this little bakery. The cupcakes here are delicious, the icing is sooo buttery and thick, the cake is moist and perfect. The decor is simple and sweet with a European vibe. There's a few bakeries in town but based on the cupcakes alone, this one is definitely my favorite!

There are few things more blissful than the aroma of a fine bakery. Sweet Pea is a tiny but renowned little bake shop offering an exquisite array of breakfast, chocolate and fruit-filled croissants, cupcakes, squares, cookies and other delicacies. A few, but not many, gluten-free options are offered as well, so those with sensitivities don't have to feel deprived. This sweet little shop is a locals' favorite, so come early for the best selection. Last visit we arrived at 9:30 on a Friday morning - it was already quietly milling with with eager customers, and their delicious pastries were flying off the shelves.

Only the Lemon & Tiramisu left...

Do you have any vegan pastries/cakes/goodies?

Do you make wedding cakes?

Hi Jenny! Unfortunately we don’t make any full-sized cakes, including wedding cakes, just cupcakes. We do have a lot of customers order cupcakes and/or cookies for their wedding from us. Thanks for thinking of us!

Gluten free bakery?

We are not a gluten-free facility. We keep utensils and surfaces clean between gf and regular items, but as we bake with regular flour for most of our items it stays in the air, so I would not recommend our products if you are celiac. Although we do… 

Are cake flavors the same as cupcakes? What types of butter creams and frostings do you offer? Thanks

We don’t make full-sized cakes here, just cupcakes at the moment. We have a variety of buttercreams including vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, raspberry, espresso, peanut butter, and salted caramel. We also have cream cheese frostings that we use to… 

Do you ship orders to Southern California?

Ordered a cinnamon & honey latte which wasn't too bad. Now the second time around I ordered a mocha latte with their house made cashew milk. I must of been missing something here because everyone seemed to be enjoying their drinks. Except me. Also ordered a few things like the breakfast tacos (2) as recommended. Wasn't a fan of the crispy potatoes on top. Some tasted burnt but overall not too bad. Also got the breakfast burrito which looked delicious. It was almost like a quesadilla burrito. Potatoes were soft and everything was well portioned. The chocolate croissant and cinnamon roll were huge and also really good.

The location is super cute, warm, and inviting from the moment you walk in. This was our first ever visit, and their website did a great job clearly explaining how everything works. We made a reservation, paid $16 each for a 50 minute visit, and it was absolutely worth it. Kayla, who was working the front desk, was friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We started in the kitten room, and the time flew by so fast that we never even made it to the adult cat area. The kittens were incredibly playful, social, and engaged, and it was very clear they are being well cared for. If you love cats, enjoy good and inexpensive coffee drinks, and want to support a local business with a great mission, I highly recommend checking this place out.

The best quality matcha drink in the area from SLO to Santa Maria! My new go to boba place in town!…read more The last time I visited this location was almost 2 years ago when it was still the old boba shop with a different owner. According to the new owner, they're not associated with the last one in any way. Chapter 25 has its own theme that I love which is "kindness". You'll see stickers, art works, and signs both inside the store and outside that promoting kindness. I am obsessed with matcha drinks and matcha anything! If the place offers matcha drinks or desserts, I'd have to try it. From all the pictures on Yelp, their strawberry matcha seems like the most popular item, so of course I had to try it my first time here. The matcha is ceremonial quality, whisked and made as ordered, then pair with fresh strawberry puree pieces and milk. I have tried matcha drinks/latte from pretty much every coffee shops around that offer them, Chapter 25 is hands down the best one! Glad Chapter 25 is here. I just have to control myself and not come here more than a couple times a week lol.
