The bakery items seemed to be overpriced. If you need flourless option this is a good place to get them.
Ordered the raspbery chocolate brownie and hardly any raspberry in it. Tasted more chocolate than anything. I sliced sideays and saw very little raspberry jam. Thr bottom of brownie had a bunch of white dots which could nean the batter was not mixed well. I felt it's not worth paying how much this cheesecake brownie was given too much chocolate and almost no raspberry fillings. The chocolate brownie at Breka is the perfect amount of chocolate and cheesecake.
Ambience is nice to sit for coffee chats and dates. Not too loud at around noon.
Service was ok. Not really friendly or anything. Felt like they were robots and tired working there.
Tons of metered parking.

Great spot, it’s so satisfying to see all their baked goods, really impressive! We’re not scone people but theirs is actually really soft and mouthwatering, the bacon & egg little bread thing was also very tasty, like old school pizza (only missing a side of Marinara sauce). Their outrageous brownie is fire but I can’t say it’s the best I’ve ever had. The stumptown cold brew is very tasty. The only thing lacking in my experience was the service, the lady looked very unimpressed and unhappy to be there, she took ages to warm up our order.

This bakery café is known for its delicious pastries and excellent coffee. The quality of their products is top-notch, offering a delightful experience for pastry and coffee lovers. However, the staff’s behavior is not very welcoming, and they give off a sense of racism in their interactions. This negatively impacted our visit, as we had come for a romantic date on a holiday, which was almost ruined thanks to the café’s staff. Despite these shortcomings, the outstanding taste of the pastries still makes visiting this place highly recommended.

Meh overpriced coffee with poor art. I was shocked when they gave it to me since usually when I order coffee in a place like this they’ll put effort in making a pretty art. The inside is very nice though, with quite a few sitting spaces. The staff was nice too.

Ooey Gooey Chocolate Chip Bar is absolutely amazing 🤩. I love chocolate 🍫 and this bar fills that craving. This bakery is modern and presents the bakery items in very inviting display. There is easy access to enter the store and it is open and inviting. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The quality and taste are excellent so the prices are okay. We only purchased pastries 🥮 but the bread looked amazing. Definitely will be coming back to try more pastries or maybe a loaf of bread 🥖.

My friends and I were so excited to try the featured hot chocolate from the hot chocolate festival, but we were all left disappointed. All 5 of us agreed on the following:
-The temperature of the “hot” chocolate was lukewarm.
-The chocolate in the hot “chocolate” was barely noticeable.
Overall, the drink was cold, and we barely tasted any of the chocolate. The bare amount they put in, was stuck to the bottom. I had to go back to the office and warm it in the microwave when there was one-third of the drink left. 2/5. Do not recommend unfortunately.

First then when we walked in I noticed the amazing service and the crazy selection!
We wanted to try it all but we ended up getting the toffee cookie, lemon coconut loaf and turkey sandwiches and espresso mistos.
So impressed with the staff, keep up the good work everyone!

lovely space, i loved the mocha and the raspberry cheesecake brownie was sooo good and there is plenty of seating available. i do want to say that the ordering process is a little bit confusing and i think they would benefit greatly by streamlining the process or having some overhead menu board/clearer directioning
