85°C Bakery Cafe - San Antonio

This Taiwanese bakery is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the sweet aroma of freshly baked goods and a cozy, welcoming vibe. We especially love the guava pastries—the phyllo dough is incredible, and you can taste every delicate, flaky layer. Their cakes are soft, spongy, and absolutely delicious and the selection of breads and drinks is just as amazing! It can get busy, but we learned to go earlier the next time, which made the experience so much smoother. What makes this place truly special is its authentic Taiwanese touch—you can taste the care and tradition in every bite. Consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, this cafe is a must-visit in San Antonio. Absolutely five stars!

I met a friend here for coffee on a Sunday around 11:30 AM, and wow !! it was packed. Long queues, no place to sit, and very loud. We ended up leaving and came back around 1:45 PM… and it was pretty much the same scenario. Thankfully, we managed to grab a table the second time! Even when we left about an hour later, it was still crowded and buzzing. Clearly, this place is extremely popular and in high demand. It’s also quite loud inside, so if you’re planning a relaxed catch-up conversation, it may be difficult to talk or hear each other comfortably. The two self-order kiosks near the entrance are honestly the best feature; super helpful and efficient for ordering beverages, especially when it’s busy. They have a huge variety of bakery and savory items, and the prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes. The items are generously sized, and my friend picked up a few to take home. It was nice to see they also have their own fresh bread selection in addition to pastries and savory options. I only ordered a peach tea, and unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed. It was super sweet .. much sweeter than my taste, so that was a letdown for me. Overall, I’d say it’s fantastic for take-out given the variety, pricing, and popularity. If you’re hoping for a quieter sit-down coffee chat, you may want to choose your timing carefully!

One of the best bakery franchise in the United States. The pricing is remarkable. The low calorie count for some items is mind blowing! How could something so delicious be under 300 calories?! The staff are always pleasant and very informative of their baked goods. The Drinks are great Spacious sitting, clean, plenty of parking. My only complaint: I wish they'd remove the custard from the whipped cream filled buns or give you the option of cream only without the custard. Everything is a perfect ten!

I came in and ordered a black milk tea with extra boba and mini crystal boba since zebra oolong was discontinued. When my drink came out, it was just black tea. I politely told them I had ordered a black milk tea, but Geraldine responded with an attitude, saying that black milk tea is basically regular milk tea, which I wasn’t aware of, instead of apologizing. Even so, I clearly asked for black milk tea, so it should’ve been understood. On top of that, the person making the drink was giving me looks and exchanging glances with him like they were judging me. That kind of customer service isn’t okay, especially when the order was made incorrectly.And she remake my drink and it was not 50 percent sweet like I ask because it was super sweet and not double boba like what I paid for.

I was so excited when I discovered this Taiwanese bakery. This is definitely my favorite bakery in the city! They bake all their items fresh daily. There are so many delicious items to choose from- breads and pastries- sweet or savory. Their drinks are amazing as well! At times, they are busy but the line always moves quickly. I’ve never had a bad experience here. Staff is always very friendly and helpful.
