“ What an unexpected gem! The desserts looked tempting, but I had just had some candy on the way there to meet a friend for tea. This place also serves up gorditas MH and have birria nachos on Fridays. I had a ginger berry tea which was delicious! But Im fixin to come back here and try each dessert, starting with those tres leches cupcakes! We sat outside on a sunny day on tables near the yard. You never would have known we were in the middle of San Pablo. What a wonderful quiet respite in the middle of this busy town! Inside a middle school no less! ”

“ Reward yourself and try the birria nachos Fridays only which are topped shredded beef. It is flavorful, brothy, spicy, crunchy, cheesy, and flawless. I had it with everything. Just spicy enough to leave your mouth with a slow burn. I had to use a fork and eat it fast before the textures got lost with time. Dont think about sharing one order. You wont want to. I also ordered the Olla latte with 2 milk, even though Im not a latte drinker. Not too sweet. Chocolatey goodness with a cinnamon kick. Rich and indulgent. Lastly, i got a set of pastries. The standout was the smores brownie which was dense, chewy and crunchy, a textural delight. This is the best Friday! A hidden gem, run by two nice women, inside the community center with easy parking. A quiet oasis and a hidden gem...for now. ”

“ Love the Lemon Gals! A little hard to find the first time but Im so glad we went there. The Olla is so delicious I think I might be developing an addiction. The staff is super friendly and she even remembered our order from the last time. Next time I will definitely try one of their baked goods because they look amazing. ”

“ So glad I found this spot. I love lemonade but often times cafes dont make them in house or use heavy sugar if they do. Here you can find delicious lemonade that isnt ridiculously sweet, yet still tasty! They also have pastries they make and so far Ive only tried the vanilla tres leches cupcake, but it was the bombbb. Definitely recommend checking this place out if youre in the RichmondSan Pablo area. ”

“ Located inside the San Pablo Community Center you will find a true hidden gem, that along with great prices and superior customer service will make you want to keep coming back again and again. Lemon gals is a locally owned bakery with a cafe style setting. they offer high quality desserts, excellent food options, and a plethora of drink options as well. if you have never been and are wanting to try a new dessert place lemon gals has got you covered. P.S I highly recommend the Tres Leches cupcake, its quite honestly one of the best cupcakes in the Bay Area. ”

“ Great little cafe inside the community recreation center. The strawberry dessert was delicious! Fresh strawberries and cream inside a flakey pastry. Cafe mocha was good. I liked it better than that popular coffee chain. ”

“ This place is incredible! Inside a community center, but they have the best food and desserts! The concha was fantastic, and the Gordita was TO DIE FOR. It was so soft and savory and a little spicy perfection for 3.50. Great Latinxthemed coffee beverages but a little sweet for my tastes. Its the food and desserts for me that shine here! ”

“ I was curious of this place so I checked it out. When I drove here I had to double check my phone to see if it gave me the right directions and it did. It was a little odd at first because it didnt look like a little coffee shop. It pretty much is a small coffee shop inside the San Pablo community recreation center. I ordered the mocha drink and it was delicious! So I will be coming back here to try the other flavors . ”
