Californian
My husband and I are obsessed with the California tartine. It's basically like avocado toast but better. The goat cheese and tomatoes always taste so fresh. We're obsessed. Highly recommend!
Parisian 🇫🇷
This beautiful cafe reminds me of the ones we visit in Paris! The food is well made and lovely to look at (and smell). We ordered some simple Parisian baguettes and I already need to come back and get more! We will be frequenting this location for brunch or for a lovely picnic lunch to take and enjoy outside
Morning
WOW!!! Have never had scones like yours before. Absolutely delicious. Can't wait to come back for breakfast/lunch to try the many different items on your menu. Truly amazing to find such a treasure in our backyard. Thank you for choosing the South Bay to open your Cafe & Bakery. May you continue to thrive.
Brie-Licious 🇫🇷
Everything I've had from Pinwheel has been fresh and delicious! One of my favorite dishes is Brie-licious, and I recommend it to all cheese lovers! The bread they serve it on is also fantastic and makes for a perfectly savory and sweet meal!
Brie-Licious 🇫🇷
Delicious 😋 my goodness. The perfect blend of sweet and savory. The bread reminds me of French cafes and beautifully, fashionable, women and cobbled streets. Definitely ordering again.
Bonjour
Pinwheel staff went above and beyond for me to help make mother's day special for my sister. Thank you to the staff for your kind communication and efforts!
Club
This is the best club sandwich, so delicious!! Everything I've had on the menu has been so good! The breakfast croissant sandwich is also really delicious, probably my second favorite thing here. And, they have the best baguettes in the area, hands down. I love Pinwheel!!
Brie-Licious 🇫🇷
This place is wonderful! Truly delicious food and friendly service. Cute ambiance as well. I have enjoyed bakery items, coffee drinks and numerous lunch items. All have been top notch. Thank you for being a favorite neighborhood place for me and me family. (Kid friendly menus items!)
French Toasts
Divine French toast is my perfect guilty pleasure to remedy any stressful workday. Not too heavy, hits the spot, and BOOM, instant gratification!!!
Espresso
Everything is excellent. Wonderful smells that embrace the senses greet you and surround an aesthetically appealing and yummy looking display of fresh French pastries. The French onion soup is sublime!
Californian
Fresh, healthy and reminds me of Paris.
Oh La La 🇫🇷
Great food and great service. Showed up with a party of 10 and they took great care of all of us. Food was delicious!
Classique
You really can't go wrong with their classic Ham and Swiss omelette. Served with a side of warm soup of the day and a slice of freshly baked baguette. All the best ingredients here at Pinwheel. Bon Appetite!
Escargot 🇫🇷
Best Escargot I've ever tried, I highly recommend it. You won't regret it.
Oh La La 🇫🇷
Came here for the first time this morning. The omelette was light and fluffy Ooh La La with a side salad and the perfect amount of baguette. The regular coffee was terrific. I will be back for baked goods.
Morning
Avec baguette no croissant.
Cafe au lait
I'll spread for all living beings on this planet that you have the best breads and pastries, terrific!!!!!
Papa Poule
My favorite salad ever! Always fresh and the toasted quinoa is a very nice touch :) I am also always tempted and end up getting a tasty pastry as well lol!
Pinwheel 🇫🇷
Just returning from Paris, we were looking for some croissants and pastries to fill our Parisian bakery withdraws. So glad one of our viewers suggested Pinwheel! From the espresso to the croissants to the fruit danishes, everything reminded us of Paris! We'll be back! https://youtu.be/A2mCRzVhreY
Club
Love the club sandwich. Love the pastries and bread too
Waffles Gourmandes
One of my favorite little bakeries in Torrance. The food and presentation are amazing and they have outdoor seating. So happy to have found this place and love telling all my friends about it!
Papa Poule
I love, love, love this salad. I promise myself to try something new, but always bring home a Papa.
French Onion Soup 🇫🇷
This quaint cafe was a delightful find... A real surprise! The staff is friendly, very professional and keep the cafe extremely clean. I especially enjoyed dining outside and absolutely loved the onion soup! I will personally be returning to try out all the other items on the menu but aside from that, as a volunteer organizer of the South Bay ladies meetup, I have selected Pinwheel cafe as our first lunch meetup since Covid due to how impressed I was with the not only the food but how secure I felt about the cleanliness... I cannot wait to share this lovely eatery with my group! Thank you again for serving delicious food and making me feel safe!
Cappucino
Their cappuccinos are one of my favorites in the South Bay Area!
Ratatouille
This is one of my favorite dishes (other one is Waffles Gourmandes) to order at Pinwheel Bakery. The flavorful ratatouille filling with swiss cheese goes very well with croissant. My 3 year old son who usually doesn't like tomato-based sauce loves it too : )
French Onion Soup 🇫🇷
I picked up the French Onion Soup and a bunch of pastries over the weekend. The soup was SO delicious, and all the pastries were excellent, as usual. Thank you, Pinwheel Cafe, for your delicious food.
Vegetarian
My favorite sandwich! So much food for a good price and so fresh! Served on a fresh baguette 🥖 I love ordering it with a Lavender scone. However, if you want the Lavender scone you better call and put one on hold because they're usually sold out in the afternoon. I can't wait to try more of the menu 🇫🇷 Also, keep in mind this sandwich does have mayo and a sliced hard boiled egg 🥚
Bonjour
Your Scones are exceptional! Not sure why I can't pull down that option... but they are such a wonderful blend of crustiness on outside and softness (but not mushy) on the inside. Nowhere else has anything like them! Especially love the date and walnut, and lemon lavender...
Latte
Pinwheel Bakery has the most authentic and delicious french food in the area! I mainly love to go there because of their delicious pastries and coffee. They have a variety of options from milk alternatives, baked goods, breads, sandwiches, and so much more! They make everything fresh and you can tell! They even sell full french baguettes. My favorite thing to get here is simple... a plain croissant and latte. It's crazy how they can make something simple SO delicious. Although I have to say everything here is amazing.
Quiche
Everything is excellent. Wonderful smells that embrace the senses greet you and surround an aesthetically appealing and yummy looking display of fresh French pastries. The French onion soup is sublime!
Brie-Licious 🇫🇷
First of all, I'd like to say I fell in love with this cozy cafe when I first walked in. It is bright and has nice rustic yet modern feel to it. The brie-Licious tasted like how the name stands for. It was served on a thinly sliced baguette with slightly melted brie cheese, drizzle of honey and walnuts on top to finish. It seems nothing special but it must be the baguette that made it all difference. Chewy and soft at the same time andall the ingredients just blend very well that I couldn't stop eating. LOL. I just wish I had this in the afternoon or as a snack instead of breakfast.
Croque Madame & Salad🇫🇷
Delicious
Californian
My favorite menu all the times! Fully flavorful!!
Escargot 🇫🇷
Ultimately the best in this state. Brought back memories of France. I highly recommend this location. Their food is out of this world and very affordable. I can eat here everyday. The food is to die for. So delicious that I think I will go now for a meal. 100% worth the drive. Casarez
Club
Formidable!
Soup Du Jour
Delicious!
Chicken Salad
I once dined at a lovely sidewalk cafe in Paris and had the most exquisite chicken salad sandwich that I had ever had. Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting Pinwheel and ventured to match my Parisian experience by ordering their chicken salad sandwich. I was immediately transported back to that sidewalk cafe in Paris, and dare I say, it was even better! Well done Pinwheel, well done...
Chicken Salad
My friend and I frequent Pinwheel café for our lunch dates and we absolutely love it! We've tried basically everything on the menu but my go-to is their delicious Papa Poule salad with Dijon dressing. I would say their chicken salad has to be my absolutely favorite. Huge portions, fresh veggies, and Dijon dressing is to die for - YUM. It has everything I want in a salad - mixed greens, juicy tender chicken strips, boiled egg, avocados, freshly baked croutons, tomatoes, and a side of bread. I love pinwheel cafe because you know their meals are made fresh to order and you can tell! I've also had their French onion soup when I'm craving something hot, the caprese Panini, brie Panini, many of their yummy croissants - and I have not had one bad meal! As I'm writing this review I'm already thinking about making a pit stop for a croissant and latte!!! Service is always phenomenal! Servers are always asking if you need anything and tables are plenty. I love the French vibe at this place. That's probably why I keep coming back - this café takes me to my favorite place in the world, Paris.
Morning
I had the morning croissant w/ egg whites and let me tell you it was delicious!! Plus the cashier was very nice as well...worth every penny!
Quiche & Mixed Greens 🇫🇷
The quiche and mixed greens salad was delicious! I ordered the quiche of the day which was smoked salmon and dill. The side salad was just the right amount and complemented the quiche nicely.
