    The restaurant was so cozy and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate my requests! Everyone was so nice and all were attentive! It was my parents' wedding anniversary and they had so much fun and they were made feel special with chef's complementary drinks and cake! would definitely recommend!

    I visit often and staff knows my preference and taste. They care. Food quality is consistently good. The outdoor patio is my choice all year round. I like TVB.

    Barking dog in the patio dining area next to me made having a meal with my friend visiting from abroad extremely irritating. There should be some level of etiquette with animals.

    The service was extremely slow the weight staff a little confused in getting our order right just for drinks and then it seemed to take an incredible amount of time between receiving our entrées and the first course. Maybe just an off nite as it is usually not the case.
    The Village Bakery and CafeResponded on June 3, 2025
    Hello Sharron, Thank you for your review and honest feedback. We take all feedback, both positive and negative, very seriously as we cannot improve if we do not know where we have fallen short. I do apologize for the timing of your meal during your latest visit. I can assure you that this was a one off as this is well below the standard we have set for ourselves or that our valued guests have come to expect from us. I certainly want to make this right with you. I would love the opportunity to catch up over the phone and learn more about your experience. At your convenience, please respond to me here, or provide your best contact information and I will reach out to you straight away. Thank you, Sharron, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best, Joe McCabe General Manager

    Could you some expanded options in Brunch menu but otherwise good- missing front patio - used to be a nice spot to enjoy California summers
    The Village Bakery and CafeResponded on June 3, 2025
    Hello Ilija, Thank you for your review! We greatly miss our front patio. We are hoping our landlord changes course soon and allows us to bring it back. Until then, we do have our lovely back patio to still enjoy the beautiful weather we are having. We look forward to welcoming you back soon! Best, Joe McCabe General Manager

    Great experience! Diego, our amazing and very professional server helped us through the menu choices. Food was amazing!! Had the delicious, light and super fluffy pancake with blueberries. Remarkable. The Shakshuka was spicy but not hot. The eggs were perfectly cooked! Even the cappuccino were so good, we had two! Great place, we'll be back!!
    The Village Bakery and CafeResponded on June 3, 2025
    Hello Alan, Thank you for your rave review! Feedback like this always makes me incredibly proud of our entire team. Diego is one of the best in the business and we are very fortunate to have him on our team. We look forward to welcoming you back for another cappuccino (or two) very soon! Best, Joe McCabe General Manager

    Tables are too close each other. The choice in the menu is limited. The servant was very nice and courteous. He made our time there relaxed and enjoyable in spite of other negative things.
    The Village Bakery and CafeResponded on June 3, 2025
    Hello Hiroshi, Thank you for your honest review. I am happy that we were able to move you to a slightly larger table that was more comfortable for you. We will be changing our menu seasonally so please be on the lookout for some new, exciting dishes! We look forward to welcoming you back very soon. Best, Joe McCabe General Manager
