California Bakery

Found this place for a brunch. Various plates to choose. We took Salad with chicken and Bagel plate with hash browns potatoes. While you’re waiting they give you a plate with some vegetables, bred and souses, which was pretty good. Brunch menu includes also 0,5 l of orange juice and coffee or tea. Tried also the apple pie. We chose the smallest peace (slim) , that was really big. Generally we liked this place. I would like to come back and try other plates. For two person we paid €47.

If U want to enjoy your time and eat grateful food, try it out. Kind and nice staff and friendly ambient. Two thumbs up! ?? I’ve been there several times. It has a nice atmosphere outside also.

Great for brunch. Lots of options to choose from

If I could give 10 stars I would. Excellent service, amazing staff, vers nice and friendly. The food is beyond words, tasteful and the portions are big, you cannot leave this place and still be hungry. Excellent value for the money. I will definitely come back here for my next stay in Milano !!

I ordered a blueberry cheesecake. Half-way through I noticed there was mold on the blueberrys. I notified the staff and was told that the cake will be discarded from the order. When paying the cashier was impolite and charged us for the piece I ate before I noticed. On top of that he was quite rude when we informed him, that we were told by his colleague that we won’t have to pay. Definitely would not recommend going here. There are much nicer cafes around town.

I rarely write bad reviews because I normally just get over it but this was remarkably bad. We went in and straight away the waiter was annoying as we had to really quiz him on what tables were actually available. "this one okay?".. no that's reserved... And so on. Just tell us where to sit. We sit down and there are 3 menus. They didn't tell us which one to look at. Pause here a sec. Waitress brings over orange juice, bread and dip that we did not ask for (important for later). The dip has already been used by someone else as it already had leftover bread in there. Gross. We find out we should be looking at the weekend menu. I'm vegan so I look at a couple option. Avocado on toast is €25 ?... And honestly the picture looks like a piece of toasted bread with sliced avocado on it and a tomato. It's as exciting as it sounds. No way would we pay that. The pancakes were €20. So we decide to politely leave, we did feel bad. But before we leave, the waitress said hold on you need to pay for the orange juice!!! ? So I was a bit shocked to be honest but didn't want to cause a fuss. However, the waiter came over and said 'but there is table water too' and they charged us for that too!! Honestly, worst restaurant experience I've ever had, food looked lame but had a price tag of a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. No idea what's going on in that place but I hated it. To the restaurant: sorry to write the bad review but you charged me for things I didn't ask for which I think is quite unfair.

We came in at around 1pm and it wasn't until they sat us down that they told us that the only thing we could have was the brunch menu. The brunch menu seems amazing at first glance, cause you only have to pay for the main dish and then the side order, the orange juice, the coffe, and the little platter with bread and spreads comes included in the menu, but the prices of each dish were expensive. 17 euros for 2 pancakes, 30 euros for a hamburger, 20 euros por a bagel/avocado toast. So either the prices are super expensive or you are actually paying for everything else that comes "included with the menu". When we finished eating we waited for them to come with the coffee and take our dishes away, but no one came to check on us, it wasn't until the other table had to order that someone finally came to our floor. They brought us coffee without the milk, we asked for it and one of us had to go to the first floor and ask for it again when after 15 minutes of waiting it became clear that they weren't coming. When it came time to pay, we noticed that when we asked for water they automatically brought us the most expensive one they had, without telling us there was another choice, and they also charged us for the extra juice that we had to order, since we were 4 people and the jug they brought was barely enough for only half a glass each. The only reason I'm not giving it 1 star is because the food was okay.

If it were possible, I would give 3,5. It was really busy when we came, but they were efficenct. The food was tasty but nothing special. Definitely pricey. The club sandwich was 13 euro and the red velvet cake 9 euro (but it had mascarpone instead of cream cheese). We were sitting in the outside area which was cramped and a tad too windy. The nice decor is mostly around the cashier. That's were you pay at the end (after receiving the food you get a ticket with a table number that you bring to the cashier, so don't wait to pay at the table). The place has too many stairs for a person on a wheelchair, and the toilet is downstairs (although I might have seen a stuff elevator that could be helpful to sb on a wheelchair, but in order to get to it you needed to go through other stairs).
