“We popped in here while on our walk from the Apple Farm to Cal Poly. It had been sprinkling so we wanted a hot cup of coffee and my son wanted a snack. My husband enjoyed his Gibraltar (espresso-based drink with steamed milk but less milk than a latte). I had an Oat Milk Latte with Honey Lavender which I had never had before. It had a unique flavor but not too strong. The cup was really big. They seem to only have one size. My son had the Raspberry Crumble Bar and he really liked it. The inside of the cafe is comfy with tables and chairs, plus lounge chairs lining the walls. They have an outdoor patio as well. The staff was friendly.“

“The baked goods are amazing. The muffins are all recommendable and as an almond lover - the almond marzipan mini pie is phenomenal. The folks working were quick to greet me and were warm and friendly. I don’t know how I just discovered this spot but it will definitely be my new breakfast place.“

“The cream cheese pillow donut is THEE best donut I've ever had in my life. I was visiting SLO for a friend's wedding and on my way out of town stopped to get a donut. I am so grateful while also regretful that I don't live in the same town as this shop. I also ordered a dirty chai late which wasn't the greatest because for my first sip I got a mouth full of powder. I won't dock a star for it though because the donut made everything better ‍“

Classic Baguette

“I came in for a basic brioche & it just so happened to be the special for that night! Unfortunately as I was making dinner I noticed it was actually a cinnamon raisin so I had to shift plans..It was a delicious bread for a different meal, I would have preferred to know what I was purchasing at the counter.“

SeaBreeze Cupcakes & Sweet Treats Bakery • $$
3001 Broad St, San Luis Obispo

“I had received a gift card to SeaBreeze over the holidays and decided to redeem it for my niece’s birthday. I was able to look at all their flavor options online and was not disappointed when I walked in. There were so many options of cupcakes, all so artfully decorated. I picked out 8 cupcakes, day of the party, and the staff even added an extra one free of charge! My favorite was the cookie dough cupcake- the cake and frosting had a great balance and wasn’t overly sweet. I highly recommend SeaBreeze for all your bakery needs!“

“I recently had friends over for afternoon tea and macarons. My friends were blown away with how beautiful and delicious these macarons are. They couldn't believe they're gluten-free.It's a real challenge finding quality, delicious gluten-free treats, so I'm happy we have Monika's Macarons in SLO. I stop here regularly to pick up a couple to have with my afternoon coffee. They also have other delicious treats like carrot cake and creme brulee.“

BlackHorse Espresso & Bakery Cafe • $
1065 Higuera St, San Luis Obispo

“A nice local coffee shop! There was plenty of seating inside and outside, which was great for us to be able to enjoy the weather. We ordered vanilla lattes with oat milk. It was a little too dark for our palate and $16 for both drinks felt a bit steep but delicious nonetheless. We also ordered a blueberry lemon poppyseed muffin, which was really good! The baristas were nice and cheerful.“

Yolo Cannolo Bakery • $
4750 Allene Way, San Luis Obispo

“Best cannolis I’ve ever had! We ordered a dozen of the large size for our Xmas eve dinner. We ended up cutting some in half because the serving size is generous. Not one bite went un-consumed. Flavor balance of filling was perfect. Wonderful crunchiness to the wrap. Jeff and his team were amazing with communication also and ensured a seamless experience from start to finish. We will be using them in the future for larger company events. Thank you!“

House of Bread Bakery •
1025 Farmhouse Ln, San Luis Obispo

“Food is ok, but limited vegan options. It's a nice setting inside, but a bit of a weird spot.Edit to reply: we did ask specifically for vegan options and got more or less a blank stare. It's awesome to hear that you do have those options, but please train the staff about the options (or better yet, add a vegan section or annotations to the menu).“

“I have been to both SLO locations, and the breads and treats are phenomenal. The Cranky Turkey sandwich is one of my favorites. I like how they switch up the offerings depending on the holiday season. Pumpkin pinwheels - mmmm. Haven't had anything bad at either location. Friendly staff!“

Back Porch Bakery Bakery • $$
289 Prado Rd, San Luis Obispo

“Amazing pastries! While visiting SLO, we stopped at a local coffee shop and had the best croissant I've ever eaten. Turns out it was from this wholesale bakery. This place is a little hard to find but worth it. Like another reviewer mentioned, it's not a sit down establishment but there was a bench outside last time I was there. Just give them a try, you won't be disappointed!“
