Wild Oak Cafe

I had the soft shell crab sandwich and French toast. The soft shell crab sandwich was abysmal. It was just a pile of deep fried batter with two claw SHELLS. Horrible The French toast was ok. But the portion was small...

We visited this place for the first time. Outdoor seating only and you sit under an awning. The service is fantastic and the food is so so good! The stuffed strawberry French toast was absolutely amazing! It is stuffed with a delicious cream cheese and orange marmalade mixture. Topped with whipped cream and fresh strawberries, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Served with warm maple syrup. Absolutely fantastic. The other dish was chicken and waffles and my goodness, the chicken was fried perfectly and super tender and moist. You have a choice of regular maple syrup or spicy maple syrup. We had the regular maple syrup and it was fantastic! The fresh squeezed orange juice did not disappoint at all, and it was probably the best orange juice I’ve ever had. The lavender coffee you see in the picture was so incredibly good and very tasty. I would go back in a heartbeat and I highly recommend you try this place. The Wild Oak Café in Glendale, California. Just outside of the Rose Bowl, almost on the border of Pasadena.

I had such a great experience here! They serve digital lattes where you can add any picture you want, and it came out so cute. The latte itself tasted amazing — rich, smooth, and perfectly made. The service was super friendly and fast, and the whole atmosphere is really nice and chill. It’s the perfect spot to sit down, read, or get some work done. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to!

A great place for brunch. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and plan to return. I initially planned to photograph my meal, but was too involved with enjoying it. I had a hot chocolate to go with my turkey bacon sandwich. The sandwich was amazing, each bite was flavorful and the sides pair extremely well with the sandwich. A pickled slice of onion was added to my plate, at first I thought it was odd but turn out to compliment the sandwich very well. I plan to write another review and add more pictures.

While we may have just had a sub par day when it came to the food, I think I would try this place again. It has charm. A good staff and apparently great hot drinks. We got two order of chicken and waffles. The chicken was overcooked and a bit tough. The waffle was good. I don’t recommend the spicy syrup though. I said I wanted regular and got one cup of each. The spicy one was not to my liking but… maybe it will be for you. We also got the avocado toast and… it was messy but very good!! 😊 The outside seating here on a beautiful morning was great. The staff was very attentive and informative. I would go back.
