One of my favorite bakeries in Westminster. No one makes better French style chicory iced coffee and beignets than this place. Truly awesome place. This cafe always makes me happy 😊.
The coffee is great, followed by some lovely pastries. You can have a quick bite with a ki5tle sandwich or you can fill that sweet tooth craving with some dessert! The fruit cake/tart is amazing! Must try!
They open at 6am and I got here at 6:30am on a Wednesday. I ordered 2 packs of beignets with the vanilla sauce for a colleague’s birthday. Everyone loved the beignets. Another colleague liked it so much they stopped by a few days later. They fried it fresh in the morning and it wasn’t a long wait. As I waited, the nice lady offered me some sample lemon cake. It was moist and tasted so good that I bought a box. Everyone is very nice and friendly.
Was spending the day in the general OC area & intended to get my favorite Vietnamese Coffee at Yummy Bakery but decided to try a new place since it was more local to where lunch was.
ITEM'S ORDERED:
Debated on getting some baked goods to try but me & the gf were going to Brodards so I just got the Vietnamese Coffee as I had planned.
TASTE:
The coffee had a pretty good strength which is what I always like. But it still seemed to be lacking some of that nice depth I love in a good dark roast coffee. I feel this could of been because they dripped the coffee too fast or maybe just the type of coffee bean they use. In any case it was not my favorite but also not terrible by any means & I imagine many people would be happy with this coffee.
The sweetness was pretty light which is what I like so that worked out well. The ice was not crushed ice which is my favorite so that was a little bit of a letdown if I'm being petty.
SERVICE & PARKING:
Service was fine especially since they were so busy on Saturday. We ordered pretty much ASAP when we walked in & the coffee was ready quite quickly.
Parking was easy & we parked right in front of the place. There's a pretty big lot providing parking to all the businesses in this larger shopping plaza. Be careful driving since it's quite busy here with cars entering/exiting because of all the businesses. This place is located in Little Saigon Village right in the front.
Since I didn't really care for the coffee I probably wouldn't return for it but I'm not opposed to trying some baked goods since the place seems pretty popular.
If you want Vietnamese coffee and a baked treat, Lily’s Bakery is a must try!! This place is so cute and just as important, the food is so good!! Try the beignets with the custard. The beignets are addicting!! The boxed treat comes with a mini shovel!!! The owner is so very nice which makes me want to support her so much more!!
Got their banh mi dac biet which was really good. 5 stars for the sandwich and 5 stars for the service as the cashier spoke English, was super nice, and also offered a free pastry. The 4 star is because there were non-food eating customers in there not wearing masks, constantly going to the counter lottery checking machine back and forth, etc. The workers didn't seem to care. They need to care for the safety of all customers.
Back to the sandwich. It was $6.00 flat. As you'll see in the pictures, the sandwich is not big but the amount of meat is very good. I liked the fact that the bread was small..as in thin small. Too much bread sucks. They used pate and american mayo. I didn't mind the american mayo but would prefer the viet style mayo. Overall it was a dank sandwich.
I get the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and beignets with vanilla sauce. The beignets are life changing- so light and fluffy! The vanilla sauce is delicious and they give you a tiny shovel so you can shovel copious amounts onto the beignets. They give out what I think is a tiny coconut pudding, which is unexpected and very generous! The shopping plaza can get busy but with so many people coming and going it's not hard to get a spot. The line moves quick and the women behind the register are always friendly. I'm so glad I found this place and plan to make myself a regular!
Parking is not great but loved this bakery and so did everyone who tasted the beignets! So quick so good! Good coffee as well. I will be visiting more and more!
A lot of Vietnamese sleep in here if someone can speak English they can talk with her everyone and understand
