The Instagram pictures of the outside look so cute and the cakes so beautiful, I had to make the drive to try Made by Lia. The location is just as cute in person!Lots of selections in the case but I went with a blueberry scone and a last Minuit biscuit purchase because it looked so good. Glad I did, it was delicious and I kept breaking off little bites all the way home. The scone was also very good, perfect texture and blueberry flavor. Nice crunch from the sugar on top. A little far from home but if I'm in the area again, I would certainly stop in.
i am glad i finally discovered this place as a nice little alternative to overpriced coffee chains in north county. the shop is adorable and all the staff are very friendly. they do seem to get quite busy so i would plan to get there early on the weekend. i had the maple scone which was excellent: moist and dense, 10/10 would get again. my plain latte was good, though i could do with a little stronger espresso and might go in on an extra shot next time. i do wish they had stoppers for the to go cups.
Made by Lia is such a gem. Every time I go in to grab something I get such a nice, cozy feeling because of the inviting space Lia and her staff have created. Everything they bake is phenomenal. I recently was able to try the coffee macaron and it was the best macaron I’ve ever had. I’m normally not a huge macaron fan but this one converted me! The oatmeal cream pies are a favorite as well. If you haven’t been, you must go!
FOR ALL MY FELLOW GLUTEN FREE SWEET TOOTHS!! They had 3 or 4 gluten free options. A scone, a pecan pastry, a chocolate cake donut, and one other option (can’t remember). They advertise as a “gluten free bakery” but shouldn’t be considered that. Cinnamon rolls were decent but, not worth going back for though. Britts bakery is much more worth the time and money, with a lot more GF options!

The best scones I've ever had! We tried three different kinds, and each one quickly became a favorite. You can really feel the owner's passion for her craft. The location is beautiful, and the staff is always smiling. Made.by.Lia is the perfect way to treat yourself on a Saturday morning.
5 stars all around. Staff is super friendly everything we have tried is amazing. I ordered Lia’s Christmas Cookie Cookbook and everyone loved the gingerbread cookies. We also saw Santa on the 16th and Santa was amazing with my upset baby. I can not suggest this place enough!
I walked down this morning to find that they were closed. However, one of the owners was out front and let me in for a cold brew! Merry Christmas and thank you so much for your hospitality!
I wish I could give a higher rating! I visited with my mom and aunt, and wow! The scones are the most delicious I've ever tasted. We'll definitely be back!!!

The scones are wonderful! My husband really enjoyed his London Fog Tea. I will definitely return!
The pastries and coffee are always great! I always get the vegan options.
