Employees were so kind. The ‘Mentai Mozzarella’ was unique. But Americano was not good.

My friend strongly recommended, so I tried for Saturday brunch. Super tasteful with fresh and selected ingredients. Unit price seems high, but such yummy taste deserves it. Totally enjoyed meal, so I got to-go buns at end. Can’t wait trying them out at home!!

Nice and clean little bakery. The staff are very friendly. They do have indoor and iutdoor seatings. Parking is easy.I love their Matcha Latte. They use oat milk instead of regular milk. Tried their bakery items, some are good, some are so so. If you like Matcha, try their Matcha cheesecake.

We love Brio Brio! A hidden gem in Lake Forest with lots of delicious Japanese pastries, bread, sandwiches, dessert, coffee, tea and more! Did I also mention they serve wine and beer (very limited selection) if you're in the mood to partake? We stopped by to try their roast beef sandwich and pork belly sandwich - both were delicious! However, if you don't like a lot of sauce in your sandwich, the pork belly has a tad much according to the hubby. I on the other hand don't mind it - bring it on. The roast beef would be your safer bet and it does not disappoint. The meat quality is on point along with the fixings. The only thing I would note is that the sandwiches are in the $15+ range, but come with a side salad. And watch out for the roof of your mouth as the bread does cut it up. It's best to eat the sandwich immediately when served as the bread is still a little on the softer side. Would definitely recommend this place to others! And make sure to try the "hojicha or matcha financier". Our favorite loaf is the hojicha financier. Lightly sweetened loaf and easy to take the whole thing down.

Best cafe in Lake Forest! Once we found this cafe we have gone every weekend! The pastries are to die for and the caprese sandwich is the best one I’ve ever had! The coffee is such great quality and so good! Can’t express how much I love this bakery cafe.

The baked goods are delicious and soft. They burnt my pastry warming it up and even though they noticed it was too burnt, they gave it to me.The matcha is premade. Oh no! And it tasted burnt since they got it way too hot.The latte also tasted very bad. They don't have a barista, the staff makes the coffee. I wouldn't recommend and drinks here.I didn't purchase the food, but it looked good.

Great coffee and snack made by Japanese craft ladies. Great place for a meeting also.

Food was good, nice outdoor patio! Can't rate the coffee tho as their machine wasn't working ?

Cute little spot with some interesting baked goods. I only made a quick visit and ended up getting a hojicha latte and a curry bread. Will definitely come back to try the sweeter breads and maybe a meal. The staff was friendly and you could definitely study inside with all the electrical outlets installed around the seating areas.

It is nice place to eat savory sweet. I like matcha cheesecake. My son ate Parmesan bread. He said it was good. Of course, my daughter loved chocolate chip bread. Overall is good!! We like it!
