Crema's Take

Tucked in Laguna Beach, this beloved neighborhood spot has earned a devoted following over the years with stellar breakfast burritos that locals swear are the best around, made with genuinely fresh ingredients and a care that keeps people coming back for over a decade. The staff strikes that rare balance of being genuinely warm and accommodating while keeping the line moving efficiently, though consistency with service can occasionally dip—but the quality of the food and the genuine hospitality usually makes up for it.

Save your money and walk across the street to amarith farmhouse for triple the portion, farm fresh and organic food, no seed oils… for less money. Our croissant sandwich at rose was dinky. One egg, barely existent cheese and a decent croissant. It doesn’t compare to yesterday’s breakfast at amarith. I didn’t even bother getting a coffee bc the milk is not organic.

Rose Bakery Cafe is a must visit! The staff are very pleasant, accommodating, and friendly. The food is delicious - freshly prepared, seasoned, and well priced for the portions. There’s a really nice outdoor seating area, and it’s not too difficult to find parking during the week. Despite the busy atmosphere, service is very fast and we received our food quickly. I highly recommend the smoothies and jalapeño cheddar bagel!

Wonderful experience, amazing quality food, highly recommend. I do want to point out my experience was on a Saturday around 2pm. With that written there was not a lot of waiting time. (I could only imagine it's packed at earlier times) We order the fiesta burrito/ stack of pancakes(blueberry) side of eggs, plus another stacked of pancakes(🍓)| I order another set of pancakes since I didn't see French Toast on the menu, but once I asked if they served French Toast, I asked if I could change the order and they were responsive & kind to change it and not charge it. We also order the fresh squeezed 🍊 juice and a vanilla Expresso shake. Again the food was delicious, not greasy- home made quality. Almost forgot- the donuts are delicious.

I have been dining at Rose Cafe for over ten years, and the food has always been wonderful. Unfortunately, today I had the worst service I’ve ever experienced here, which really ruined what should have been a pleasant morning. When our food was being served, we politely asked a server (an Asian lady dressed in black) if one of our French toasts was still coming. To our surprise, she raised her voice at us and insisted that the restaurant has never served French toast. I calmly explained that we’ve ordered it many times before, but she repeatedly and very rudely emphasized that in her 30 years working there, she had never seen French toast on the menu. Not even a minute later, she herself brought the French toast to our table and bizarrely said, “Wow, they actually made French toast for you,” without offering any apology. Instead, she continued to insist she had never seen it before. The entire experience left me and my family shocked and upset. I never expected to be treated this way, especially at a restaurant I’ve supported for a decade. My disappointment has nothing to do with the food—which remains delicious—but entirely with the lack of professionalism and respect in the service. After ten years of loyalty, this is the first time I’ve walked away from Rose Cafe feeling truly let down.

The breakfast burritos are the best in town and honestly the best around any town!! All ingredients are fresh and even if there’s a line out the door (because it’s THAT amazing) it will move quickly because their customer service is that good. This establishment truly knows good food and good service. Also don’t sleep on their donuts and muffins. They are phenomenal and not too sweet!
