Orange is set to welcome a new culinary addition as Rose Bakery Cafe announces the upcoming opening of its third location later this fall. Established 27 years ago in Corona Del Mar, this popular cafe has expanded with the recent success of its second establishment in Irvine and aims to bring its beloved breakfast and lunch offerings to residents and visitors in Orange.
The new Rose Bakery Cafe will be located at Orange Town and Country Plaza, specifically at 763 South Main St. Slated to occupy over 3,000 square feet, the cafe will feature an outdoor patio to provide guests with a delightful al fresco dining experience. The cafe’s focus will continue to revolve around a diverse menu that highlights breakfast and lunch options, catering to various tastes.
Breakfast enthusiasts can look forward to a range of popular items including burritos, pancakes, avocado toast, and a selection of baked goods such as doughnuts. For lunch, the menu will expand to include burgers, sandwiches, wraps, and salads, maintaining the ethos that has made Rose Bakery Cafe a preferred destination for food lovers.
In a unique twist, the Orange location will integrate a collaboration with Laventina’s Big Cheese Pizza, allowing patrons to enjoy an expanded menu that includes pizza, salads, and wings alongside the traditional Rose Bakery fare. This joint concept aims to offer a more varied dining experience, appealing to a broad audience.
The owners of Rose Bakery Cafe, Carmen and John De Carrier, are enthusiastic about the opening of the new location and their goal of becoming a cherished spot for both locals and visitors in the Orange community. They emphasize that this new establishment is a continuation of their brand’s legacy, building on years of experience and culinary skill to foster both a welcoming atmosphere and quality food.
This expansion comes as the dining scene in Orange continues to evolve. Alongside Rose Bakery Cafe’s upcoming opening, there are notable changes in the community’s restaurant landscape. A new Cuban restaurant named Sabor a Cuba is expected to take over the space previously occupied by Felix Continental Cafe in Old Towne, with plans to launch by the end of 2025. This indicates a growing interest in diverse food options within the area and reflects the ongoing developments aimed at enriching the culinary offerings for residents and visitors alike.
As Rose Bakery Cafe prepares to open its doors for the third time, the anticipation surrounding the venue builds. With its commitment to quality, variety, and community engagement, this new cafe is poised to become a prominent fixture in the Orange dining scene.
