Came here on an early Sunday morning, not too crowded. I ordered the almond croissant which was delicious. Customer service was a 10 out of 10 and I believe the cashiers name was Lilly. I would come here again, but it was a bit pricey.

I want to like Darshan's because it's a small business, but the few times I have gone in I have been disappointed. The inside seems completely unadorned and very utilitarian. If there is any art it is completely unmemorabile. They did seem to have a good selection of pastries, but since I don't eat that type of thing, I couldn't say if they were any good.

Server rude. We got there near closing I stood in line until an unmasked man came out of the bathroom cut in front of me to chat with her about nothing that had to do with purchasing food. I waited outside for 10 minutes while the unmasked man paraded back and forth within the store chatting with her. Went back after he left and asked to get 2 turnovers… she said no we are closed. I will never go back.. rudeness and stupidity should not be rewarded

Vibe: nice vibe, the place is a little outdated a d can use some touch ups , but still lovely.Service (quality/ response): excellent customer service and fast service.Food: quite nice selection of pastries that are made in-house , the latte was amazing (Dark roast and well managed).Thank you Darshan Bakery & Cafe !

Had a nice quiet lunch of homemade quiche and fresh pastry, sitting outside on the patio on a peaceful street one block of the buhbub of the main drag. Also was offered water for our dog Sailor who really liked the place too.

To understaffed and way too expensive

Good pastry and a good breakfast place just around the corner

Very good coffee. I didn't have any food but the baked goods looked delicious.

Always great! Right next to my home church, SRF Encinitas Temple.

Really yummy but on the pricier side.
