Let Blackmarket Caffeinate You
05.09.14
As if Blackmarket Bakery at the Camp in Costa Mesa wasn’t already our favorite bakery in Orange County. Now Chef Rachel Marie just launched a full espresso menu featuring Kean Espresso and La Marzocco. They will pull, pour, steam and swirl your favorite espresso drinks including cappuccinos, caffe mocha, macchiato, caffe latte, café au lait, and Americano. Plus, Blackmarket specials like the s'more lattes and "from scratch" syrups.
And stop by Sunday, spend $25 and you’ll receive a free box of handmade Blackmarket chocolates---a perfect gift for mom. (That will be easy to do after you see their cookies, tarts, cakes, pastries, confections, breads, and sandwiches.)
Open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
Blackmarket Bakery is at 2937 Bristol St. in Costa Mesa. 714.662.3095
