Crema's Take

Scratch Bakery Cafe is a charming corner spot at Fashion Island where serious coffee meets seriously good pastries and baked goods—think gluten-free coconut passion fruit cake that actually impresses. Whether you're settling in with your laptop for a work session, meeting friends for a catch-up, or treating yourself to their standout salads and wraps, the vibe is warm and welcoming enough to make it a regular destination. The real magic here is how they balance being both a solid specialty coffee cafe and a full-service bakery-restaurant, so you're never choosing between a great drink and great food.

Best Food and Best Fries ever, just tried for the first time and 🤩 wow , had salmon Salad I love it for my lunch break. Also had chicken Caesar wrap it’s usually not my top pick, one of the guys told me to get that and it tastes better than I expected. Thank you all for your hard work

This coffee shop is a sweet tooth’s dream, with an array of amazing desserts to pair with your drink. Everything I’ve tried has been delicious, but the real star here, the thing that truly stands out, is the cinnamon bun. Soft, fluffy, perfectly spiced, and just the right amount of sweetness, it’s the kind of treat you find yourself thinking about long after it’s gone. They have also great selection of salads, wraps and sandwiches but we stopped just for a quick coffee break so I didn’t try anything else.

Update. So, I came back 9 months later and had the Gluten Free Coconut Passionfruit Cake! This is gluten free? Wow. Delicious! Moist and the passion fruit is subtle. Once again, the amount of sugar is just right. Not overly sweet. Craving some sweets and this cute little cafe hit the spot. I ordered a slice of carrot cake and a slice of the lemon cake. Two of my favorite flavors! It was not too sweet so that was a nice balance of flavor. Will have to visit again next time for some other menu items that looked delicious!
