They are so sweet! We visited Morro Bay for the first time and I was so pleased with the food, we went back 3 more times!!! Everything is super fresh and the flavors were great!

We had the breakfast croissant sandwiches, the lattes, the fresh homemade soups (wow) with the fresh baguette!! So delicious!

I will be back to try the cheeseburger!! The Apple brioche was beautiful but way too big. The Blackberry Cream Cheese Danish was messy and hardly any cream cheese. The Chocolate Croissant was good. Iced Mocha was OK. Turkey sandwich on croissant was really heavy, not much to write home about though. Caramel Oatmeal cookie good. Raisin Oatmeal was really good. Chocolate Chip Oatmeal crumbled. Almond Oatmeal was OK. Friendly folks, got a handicapped place right in front. They are open until 3:00.

Whether you're here for a pastry, a sweet treat, a healthy dog treat, a coffee, or anything else, they've always treated everyone like family. No one is just a customer. I will always cherish my memories of the first cinnamon crisp when I was barely old enough to walk. All these years later, they still impress me with fresh baked goods and the best ice cream! If you find yourself in Morro Bay, you owe to yourself to stop in, say hi, and try the espresso chip icecream.

She treated my family wonderfully and took the time to explain all the treats, which made the experience genuinely enjoyable. This time, however, things were different. When I came back, there was a very short 4 ft man wearing a hairnet and another woman behind the counter. The woman glanced at me and immediately turned away, while the man gave me a hollow, thousand-yard Gen Z stare. To make matters worse, they didn't heat up my scrumptious snuggle treat--it was served cold. If those two hadn't been more focused on flirting with each other, this visit might have been a good experience too.

Unfortunately, halfway through the enjoyment of my scone, I noticed the center was not cooked. I took my pastry back and the shop agreed and apologized. The cafe made it right by offering my money back and providing me another pastry to satisfy my tummy. I replaced my blueberry scone with a poppy almond muffin- the muffin hit the spot. The muffin had good taste and flavors. Given the fact that the cafe made it right I would definitely come back. As for seating, the shop offers a small bar area inside to views people walking by.

I purchased the pain au levain, in lieu of a baguette, for $12. The price is pretty steep for a loaf, but seems to be the going rate for these smaller boutique bake shops. The bread itself was warm when I purchased it, which was awesome. Enjoyed it with my coffee, but did find it to be a little doughy on the inside. Good flavor, but not something I would come back for. I'd rate it a solid 3.5. I also purchased the chocolate chip cookies. I think I completely went brain dead when I bought these, because I did read they were gluten-free and vegan, but still bought the pack of 6. Man, they looked like chocolate chip cookies, but didn't taste like chocolate to me, at all. For a regular chocolate chip cookie lover, it's a 1 star. For someone looking for a gluten-free and vegan cookie, this could be a winner. Maybe.

So I went into the Smoothies place to check it out, oh and write a review as I wait. Cozy as it gets with the friendly staff, actually looked like they enjoy the job and human interactions. I asked for a Mango something smoothie but no pineapple, be creative. The place has a good variety of drinks and edibles, sandwiches, salads, avocado toast, and on and on. If you don't see it they would probably make it for you. Now granted I was the only order being made at this moment and my smoothie was delivered to me as I sat at the bistro table out front. I was surprised how flavorful the smoothie was, I don't know why I thought that but it did taste good, a bit pricy. I'm good with pricy and this was backed up with quality ingredients and stellar service. Ah...yes and supporting local business is good for everyone Thanks, I'll see you again! Foodguy-Martin

I was able to park in a handicapped place a couple of storefronts down. I was greeted with a "just one?", which as a single diner always gets my hackles up, do better!! The folks were friendly, it was pretty crowded. I considered the Eggs Benedict but was disappointed to see that the Hollandaise was "creole" flavored. I ended up ordering a basic breakfast: eggs, bacon, potatoes, english muffin. Can't go wrong with that, right? I ordered my eggs "broken over-hard" but they came out over-hard. I order this way to have the yolk spread out into the white. The english muffin was grilled, so not hard on the outside, but it was still good. The eggs were rubbery. The potatoes were a bit too spicy, I needed ketchup to eat them. Bacon was OK. Thin napkins, needed more. Plate was chipped. Had to use the restroom before leaving, it is now a gender neutral bathroom and Burt Reynolds is still presented in all his glory!! I must have a totally different sense of humor. Won't be back here, nothing on their menu appeals to me. Sorry.

I also had a triple berry muffin that I'm sure was homemade, not one of those overly sugary ones you get at some places.

As expected with a group our size, there was a bit of a wait, but what stood out was how well the staff managed expectations from the moment we ordered. They were transparent about timing, which made the experience feel organized and considerate rather than frustrating. While some of us were already enjoying our drinks and food, the owner personally came out to thank our group for stopping by. That level of hospitality really stood out. At a time when genuine customer appreciation can sometimes feel rare, that personal touch made a big impression on us. The service felt warm, personable, and authentic, and the quality of both the food and drinks matched the experience. I would make a point to stop here again next time I'm in Morro Bay.

On my first visit, I arrived right at opening and was told to come back in about an hour for more options. No problem, I grabbed a coffee nearby, explored a park, and discovered a hotel that I ended up booking and falling in love with. Over my visits I tried the ham & cheese croissant, kouign-amann, and a seasonal avocado toast. Each pastry was perfection, and the avocado toast was both unpique and delicious. Their menu offers a great mix of sweet and savory treats, but don't show up at opening if you want the full spread. Pro tip: Bay Wood Park Pier is just minutes away. Pair your pastries with a stroll and an incredible view! To the team at Wayward Baking: thank you for the most delicious mornings. I'll be back and can't wait to try one of your pizzas (pizza Mondays are officially on my radar!).
