They definitely put the hello in hello bakery! The people are wonderful! Nicest service and amazing food.

I stopped by Hello Bakery and was blown away by their delicious croissants—but what really stood out was the owner's kindness! I bought four pastries, and to my surprise, they gifted me a free almond croissant! 😍
Croissant Quality: The croissants here are perfectly flaky, buttery, and freshly baked. The plain croissant had a crisp exterior with soft, airy layers inside, while the almond croissant (my free treat!) was rich, slightly sweet, and packed with crunchy almond goodness. Absolutely delicious!
Customer Service: The owner was warm and welcoming, and the free croissant was such a lovely gesture. It’s rare to find a bakery that cares so much about making customers happy!
Final Thoughts: If you want top-tier croissants and a bakery that goes above and beyond, Hello Bakery is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back—maybe they’ll surprise me again! 😉 Highly recommend! 🥐💛

Best place in town to find the most scrumptious, fresh baked pastries and first-class atmosphere. All delicious... from ice-cream to cool you off in a hot summer day or a cup of fresh brewed coffee to warm you up & an awesome croissant. You all just have to go and see for yourself.

Two years ago, my fiancé and I took an incredible cross-country road trip. As part of our adventure, we made it a mission to seek out and grade local bakeries. We sampled and compared cheese danishes and customer service in about 20 different cities—from Alabama to Wyoming, Utah, Texas, and Mississippi. Some bakeries were quite good… and some were downright awful.
Who knew that two years later, we’d find the best one — hands down — right here in Alabama?
Not only was the customer service at Hello Bakery exemplary, engaging, and genuinely friendly, but the cheese danishes (and the other pastries I sampled) were absolutely phenomenal. The baker and his partner have been honing their craft for 28 years, and their shop, nestled between Crestview South and Mountain Brook, has been serving the community for just over two years.
The folk-art-decorated bakery has clearly found its audience — even at 8:30 in the morning, the traffic was steady. And those cheese danishes? Incredible. Some places get the bread right, others nail the custard, but rarely do both shine. Here, the croissant-like bread is buttery and delicately layered without being overly sweet. The custard is rich, creamy, and flavorful — not cloyingly sugary, which is often used to mask mediocrity.
I can’t recommend them highly enough. Solid 10 out of 10. Net Promoter Score: off the charts.

This was my first visit there and I got the cream cheese danish because it looked delectable and I was not mistaken! That was probably the most delicious cheese danish I have had and the bakery is out of my way, but I will make a trip to be back! Not to mention the service was phenomenal and friendly!

This little bakery is tucked away in a small shopping strip in a neighborhood. We visited it after reading about it in an online article about local bakeries. The writer suggested the cinnamon roll which I got and it did not disappoint. The dough is like a croissant dough and, unlike other cinnamon rolls where you need the cream on top, you don't need it with these. Warm it up a little and give it a try.

We really enjoyed the hazelnut coffee and croissants! Friendly owner helped me with my order. I wish I knew about this spot sooner.
Wonderful! Great local bakery with quality, delicious pastries. The best cream cheese danish I’ve ever had. I look forward to trying their ice cream which I can only imagine will be delicious!

Hot a nice cheese danish and a chocolate ginger cookie.

This place is great! Expert baker/owner can really throw down. Perfect walk-up style. We got a chocolate chip cookie, cinnamon roll, and blueberry and cream cheese danish and everyone tried all three with our coffee. Definitely will be back to check out the ice cream and everything else they have!

Holy cow the best Almond Croissant I have had in my whole life! I don’t know how to explain it, but it is so almond-y! I’ve only had one bite and I knew I needed to write a review. You should definitely try this place out. The baked goods are so fresh, the cashier was lovely, and they have a variety that changes from day to day.
Yummy everything! Great place!
