5 Fall-Themed Treats in Newport Beach
This week, we’re diving into the sweetest side of fall! Newport Beach’s top restaurants, bakeries, and dessert shops have crafted menus brimming with seasonal delights, and we can’t get enough. From pumpkin bread and pumpkin pie chai lattes to caramel apple sherbert, we’ve rounded up the most irresistible fall-flavored treats in Newport Beach to indulge in this season. No tricks, just a whole lot of treats!
Caramel Apple Sherbert
Order at: Salt & Straw
If we know one thing, it’s that Salt & Straw is not your average ice cream shop. This creamery is always innovating and rotating flavors based on the seasons, and this month, you can snag a scoop of their Caramel Apple Sherbert! Made with apple puree, vanilla-infused caramel, a touch of salt, and a sorbet base, this decadent fall dessert in Newport Beach is sure to hit the spot. Don’t miss out on other flavors in their Apple Series, such as the Apple Cider Donuts, Finnriver’s Black Currant Apple Cider, and vegan Green Apple Wasabi Sorbet.
Pumpkin Pie Chai
Order at: Alta Coffee
We all love a PSL, but skip the Starbucks line this season and support your local coffee shop! Alta Coffee is whipping up pumpkin pie chai lattes this fall that are heaven in a cup. Make it dirty with a shot of espresso, or make it flirty with a dollop of housemade whipped cream! Nothing beats a foggy fall morning at Alta Coffee.
Pumpkin Bread
Order at: Rye Goods
Featuring a menu of seasonal delights, Rye Goods at Lido Marina Village is an organic bakery and deli specializing in freshly baked treats. They use freshly milled grains and wild yeast to create a swoon-worthy selection of baked goods. This season, you’ll find everything from seasonal scones and donuts to pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin bread.
Squash Pie
Order at: True Food Kitchen
While Fashion Island’s True Food Kitchen is prized for its healthy and fresh approach to dining, it still offers a wide selection of comfort food. The restaurant’s new fall menu features a variety of seasonal dishes, including butternut squash pizza and grass-fed meatloaf. But whichever you choose as your entree, be sure to leave room for dessert! The Squash Pie with a graham cracker crust and whipped coconut cream is not only to die for but also vegan and gluten-free.
Honeynut Squash Tiramisu
Order at: Lido Bottle Works
Lido Bottle Works’ new fall menu just dropped, and we’re already drooling! Chef Joel Gutierrez has done it again with a variety of inventive dishes crafted with the season’s ripest and freshest ingredients. Start with the focaccia and burrata with squash, apple, candied hazelnut, and brown butter, then move on to mains like the shaved Brussels Salad, Crispy Skin Salmon, or the Al Pastor Pork Chop. End your foodie escapade with the Honeynut Squash Tiramisu with mascarpone, house amaretto and crème anglaise.
