Review Summary

Bernice is widely praised as a solid bakery with standout items like brioche, cookies, cinnamon buns, and cakes, with the brioche described as moist, fluffy, and indulgent and the blueberry coffee cake highlighted as one of the best, though not always available as often as shoppers wish.

Service and ambiance are frequently praised for friendliness and cleanliness, though a few reviews point to occasional waits or inconsistencies and some issues with delivery or wrong cake orders.
