Rockaberry is widely praised for its fresh, flavorful cakes and pies, with many reviews noting that the desserts are a highlight and that the pastry quality shines across flavors, from fruit desserts to cheesecakes. Service is described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, with staff remembered by regulars and able to suggest strong options. The atmosphere ranges from cosy and welcoming to crowded or less warm depending on location, and some reviewers miss the vibe of the old place while others appreciate a newer cafe feel. The venues are consistently described as clean and calm, sometimes with a lively social media presence mentioned by patrons. A few criticisms include isolated hygiene issues, limited seating due to student crowds, and concerns about price versus value on larger slices. Overall, Rockaberry seems to be a popular dessert and cafe destination that draws repeat visits for treats and quick service, while noting occasional inconsistencies in ambiance, service, and pricing.
I love this place! We often rent a car just to come here!! All the cakes are always fresh & tasty (including the fruit), & the place is always clean with a calm atmosphere. The cashier always remembers our faces & orders. On top of that, their TikTok is adorable!!
They never disappoint! Thank you so much!!
I am extremely disappointed with the strawberry shortcake. This was something my friends, family & I used to genuinely enjoy, but the recent change has completely ruined it. The taste has clearly changed & not for the better. The cream on top now has odd hints of coconut & banana, the sponge cake was dry & barely tasted like vanilla, & the overall texture & flavour were unpleasant.
The only part that seemed unchanged was the filling. There was no notice of a recipe change, if only I had known, I never would have ordered it. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.
just love their cakes, price is acceptable given one slice of cake is enough for like 3 people. oreo cheesecake is kind of a miss but the mochamisu & the berry cheesecake with crumbles on top (i forget the name) are so good
Me & my friend took a sprinkled piece of cake to share, one matcha (I don't know how you call this but this is what she told me) & one simple coffee.🍰☕?🍵
The cake was very sweet (a little too much to my taste but I still shared it 50-50 because it was still good), the coffee was to my liking since I love my coffees simple most of the time. I can't say the same for the matcha since it is not something I like myself, but my friend enjoyed it! 💛
The service was polite, & our "order" was "delivered" to our table!
The vibe in general was very calm! I think if there would be more people I could have had a proper "vibe check" but overall, it was amazing!
The 4/5 stars is for the fact that its a little too pricey, but I would definetly come back!

I have been buying cakes here on the regular, & they never disappoint(except the natural cheese cake, too much cream & cheese for my own taste). I highly recommend it to anybody who loves cheesecakes!
Je vais donner mon avis sur deux gâteaux que j'ai testé : Le Red Velvet : Franchement, c'était super bon ! Le gâteau était hyper moelleux, avec ce petit goût de cacao & de vanille qui fait toute la différence. Le glaçage au cream cheese, crémeux & un peu acidulé, était juste parfait. Un vrai plaisir du début à la fin ! Gâteau à la fraise : Là, par contre, c'était pas terrible. Le gâteau manquait de fraise, qui devrait être la star, n'avait pas assez de goût. Le tout manquait de peps. Dommage, parce que ça aurait pu être top. Par contre, je suis vraiment déçu qu'il n'y ait pas eu de carrot cake, c'est l'un de mes desserts préférés. Mais je tiens à souligner que la personne à l'accueil était très agréable & souriante, ça fait toujours plaisir. Je leur laisse une autre chance de me surprendre avec d'autres saveurs. Peut-être qu'à la prochaine visite, ils auront le fameux carrot cake !
Really nice cafe spot to cure that sweet tooth syndrome with a fat slice of pie cake. It was a great service from the kind Adam & Sandra who saw me drop my coffee & offered to make a new one free of charge (& embarrassment). Will most definitely come back just because of that!
Great service, they always go above & beyond for your comfort. The food is super good, both the drinks & the cakes. Sometimes the music is too loud depending on who is at the counter that day, but usually, its nice background noise that's not too overbearing.
This new Rockaberry has a modern feel in the design, & everything looks very nice! There was quite a few people in the cafe either studying, or enjoying time with friends or on a date (it was a Wednesday evening). The cake (Crème Boston) was good, & the service too. The only downside is the price, I feel it's a little expensive (with tips, it came back to 12$ for a single slice). Other than that, it's a great cafe to go if you're ever in the area!
