Do you cater hot brunch trays?

+Bake handles pastry boxes, per-person breakfasts and boxed lunches, cookies, brownies, cupcakes, coffee and the dessert table. Full hot brunch trays come from our sister brand Take Ur Seat, who cater those from the same kitchens.

Products & Ingredients

Are your products made fresh?

Yes. Our pastries are baked in-house every day, and kitchen items are made to order.

Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Some of our items can be made gluten-free or dairy-free upon request. Please note that our kitchen handles dairy, gluten, nuts, and eggs — we cannot guarantee a completely allergen-free environment. Please contact us directly to discuss your specific needs.

What are the main flavors you use?

We specialize in Filipino and Southeast Asian flavors including ube (purple yam), pandan (fragrant tropical leaf), coconut, calamansi, and black sesame — blended with Western baking techniques to create our unique fusion style.

How long will my items stay fresh?

Croissants and pastries are best the day you pick them up. Cookies are best enjoyed within 2–3 days. Rice bowls and other kitchen items should be eaten the day of pickup.

Coffee & Beans

Who roasts +Bake Cafe's coffee?

Our coffee comes from Local Coffee Roasters, a specialty roastery in Chino Hills, CA — about 15 minutes from the café. Every bag is roasted fresh weekly. The roastery began in 2018 as the coffee bar inside Take Ur Seat, our sister restaurant, and opened its own roastery in 2024, so our coffee program and our family of restaurants grew up together.

What coffee is in your espresso?

We pull our espresso on Brazil Minas Gerais Luzia, a natural-process coffee from the Cocatrel cooperative near Três Pontas, grown at 950–1,120 meters. Expect caramel, chocolate, and cream with a soft, nutty finish — it's the shot in every latte on our menu, from the Pandan Latte to the Spanish Latte.

Do you sell whole bean coffee?

Yes. We carry 12 oz bags of Local Coffee Roasters' current lineup — Brazil Minas Gerais Luzia, Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Aricha, and Colombia Sugarcane Decaf — at the same prices the roastery charges on its own website. Bags are roasted weekly, so you're taking home fresh coffee, not shelf stock.

What is a pandan latte?

Pandan is a fragrant Southeast Asian leaf with a naturally sweet, vanilla-like flavor. Our Pandan Latte pairs house-made pandan syrup with a double shot of espresso and steamed milk. It's one of our signature drinks and a good first taste of our Asian-fusion coffee style.

Do you have sugar-free or decaf options?

Both. Our Monk Fruit Vanilla Latte is sweetened entirely with monk fruit — no sugar. For decaf, we carry Colombia Sugarcane Decaf, a sugarcane-process decaf that keeps the coffee's natural sweetness. Ask at the counter about making your drink decaf or sugar-free.

What roast level is +Bake's coffee?

Light to medium, roasted in small batches. Coffee is a fruit, and roasting it lighter keeps the sweetness and brightness of the origin in the cup rather than burning it off for a generic dark-roast flavor. We roast our espresso that way too, so the fruit still comes through in a latte or cortado.

How should I brew +Bake's beans at home?

Our roaster's go-to is a pour-over. Use 24 g of coffee ground medium and 320 g of water at about 200°F (just off the boil) in a V60 dripper. Rinse the paper filter first, bloom with a small pour at the start, then pour in slow circles — aiming for a total brew time of 2:30 to 3:30. It takes about four minutes and brings out the floral, delicate side of the coffee. The full step-by-step is on our coffee page.

Why does specialty coffee cost more than a regular cup?

Good coffee passes through many hands before it reaches you — the grower, the mill, the importer, the roaster, and the barista. It's grown at elevation and usually harvested just once a year. Paying a bit more is how everyone in that chain, starting with the farmers, gets treated fairly — and it's why we work with a roaster who sources directly and roasts fresh.

General

What are your hours?

We're open daily from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. Kitchen orders (made-to-order hot food) are accepted until 2:00 PM; bakery items and drinks are available until 3:30 PM. For walk-in visits, no reservation is needed. For online orders, Toast shows your pickup time before you pay.

Is there seating at the café?

Yes! We have a cozy café space with seating, board games available for guests, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. We're a hangout, not just a pickup counter. Come stay a while.
