50 Best Bakeries near Saratoga

“I’ve been wanting to try the viral Dubai chocolate chewy cookie and was pleasantly surprised to find out I didn’t have to drive all the way to the city for it! They limit 2 per customer on weekends which I appreciate. It was soft and chewy on the outside but crunchy, nutty, and sweet on the inside. The other pastries looked amazing too but I didn’t get to try them. Wish there was more seating/cozier cafe ambiance. I will be back to try the madeleines!“

“This place has an incredible variety of Persian pastries, literally anything you can imagine. The pastries were delicious, and I loved that almost every kind was packed with plenty of pistachios. The ice cream was ok, though the saffron ice cream wasn't quite on par with what I’ve had at other places. It is generally overpriced. Also, I noticed a misspelled word in the logo ('Patisseire' instead of 'Patisserie'); I'm curious if they’ve ever noticed!“

“Yummy cookies. Thank you!“

“The best cookies I’ve had in a while. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth but these are so so good! I love the new variety of flavors every week and how they’re so unique and different than the generic cookies you buy in the grocery store. The price isn’t too bad either! For a box of 6 cookies it’s $22 but the cookies are HUGE. I can never finish one by myself so I leave them to the rest of my family. Also pro tip download the crumble app so you can earn free rewards. 100 points equals to $10 you can use towards the cookies.“

“the best of best good food and sweet 🎂🎂🎂“

“100% recommended!! 🤩 warm, chewy delicious ✨“

“Every time I visit GK Pastry in Mountain View, I usually get the jalapeño cheddar bread (so satisfyingly good, toasted or not), but this time I tried the tomato cheddar bread—crunchy exterior, soft and chewy interior. Awesome toasted. My other go-to is the chocolate jar cake. The chocolate they use is delicious, not too sweet. This time I had the mixberry jar cake. A nice, change-up. Never disappointed. Definitely try and support this local bakery! They opened a new location in Los Altos, too.“

“The strawberry cake was delicious!“

“Went here based on the reviews and I’m so glad I did! The storefront is small and unassuming with a no-fuss setup so the focus is entirely on the fantastic pastries. The danish of the day was strawberry passionfruit and oh my goodness, I wish I had gotten two! Highly recommend stopping in if you’re in the area!“

“I was very charmed by this local donut spot. It is an older establishment (so a little run down which honestly just added to the whole experience for me) but very affordable and clean. Good donuts (very generous raspberry filling), tasty breakfast sandwich, hot diner coffee, the sweetest lady behind the counter, and regulars who were happy to see each other.“

“This place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. I went on word of mouth without discovering it was cash only. After a little hunting and finding several ATMs on Google Maps missing or broken, I was able to get cash at Bank of America.

I came for the Baked Pork Bun, but also tried the Egg Custard and Red Bean Paste Mochi Roll.

The Pork Bun was HUGE, and the best I have ever had. The owner gave credit to the dough being mixed by hand rather than machine. One is intended to be a meal. I was worried at its size it would fall apart, but it held together. Light, fluffy, and delicious. I was a little concerned when it was taken from rhe warmer and put in a microwave for 15 seconds, but it did not negatively impact the result as far as I could tell. BEST EVER!!

The mochi was more tender and soft than I have ever experienced, and in the most wonderful way. I am used to stretchy and chewy mochi. This was mlre delicate and silky. They look haphazard, but the texture and flavor completely makes up for it.

The Egg Custard was much mlre like a flan in a French pastry as opposed to what I expected of a South Asian Egg Custard. I expect if you like flan, it was good, but my preference is the variety that is more like sweet red bean paste than flan.

I wish I had taken pictures before I ate it all.

I look forward to going back again soon!“

“Cero worked with me from “afar” NC! He was patient and kind. He delivered exactly what we wanted for my brother’s retirement party. Highly recommend! S Jones North Carolina“

“My son like the almond croissant. tried the plain donut..it's really delicious. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“If I lived in San Jose I would be here once a week. Everything I sampled was absolutely amazing. The milkbread, the egg sandwich, the ube scone, everything. Service is prompt and friendly, and the ambience is with just the right amount of bustle (at least at 9 a.m. on a Friday). Highly recommend!“

“Charming cafe!!!! Fantastic food at reasonable prices, convenent location and warm friendly environment. An ideal place for heartfelt talks and informal business conversations. I LIKE IT. Irene Borz, Broker“

“Hot Breads has become one of my absolute favorite bakeries for eggless cakes and baked goods. For vegetarians and vegans, it’s truly a gem, offering a wonderful range of high-quality eggless options that are both fresh and delicious.

Their cakes are soft, flavorful, and available in a wide variety, making them perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or simply satisfying a dessert craving. Beyond cakes, I especially love their sandwich breads and fresh eggless pav, which have an authentic taste and excellent texture.

For anyone looking for delicious vegetarian-friendly bakery items @ Hot Breads is the Place.“

“Fantastic place! Lovely atmosphere. Great hostess. Kind and nice. Good for every age.“

“Breakfast bar, Dark chocolate cherry cookies and the breads. We’ve tried a few things and loved them all!“

“Best tasting gluten-free desserts I’ve ever had! I love the gf brownies!“

“Love these cookies
They are delicious and the owner takes special care to R&D all the flavors. Cookies taste amazing and freeze well. So when I make special trip down I get a bunch cut them in half and freeze them for when I want a sweet treat. They are big so it's perfect for sharing! Good for parties too“

“Felt like home. The owners and works were very kind and the food was really good!
I had a torta de papas with chorizo and I got a Mazapán latte and both were fantastic! Everything on the torta was homemade, really fresh, and really good! 10/10 really recommend. Also their pumpkin empanada was perfect amount of sweetness.“

“amazing classes, friendly instructors with a lot of patients... and their products are great, easy baking instructions and their cakes that you buy to make at home Amazing!“

“Omg! The Yummiest Empanadas I’ve tasted. It’s a perfectly baked flakey perfect every bite. I can’t wait to go back for more!“

“Fresh and fabulous ❣️ Worth the wait, for sure😋“

“todo esta delicioso, le recomiendo los tamales y las tortas y el pan fresco y echo todos los dias😁“

“I love icing on the cake! The cupcakes, cakes and other desserts are amazing! I highly recommend this location in Los Gatos. The staff was helpful and kind!“

“bought a cinnamon roll at Nordstrom, Doughy and tasted like chemicals. the worst I've ever had and it cost 8 dollars!“

“I've never actually been to the physical store but I've had their cake a few times from friends or relatives for special occasions. Classic asian style cream cakes that are moist and not too sweet which I love. Their cheesecake(?) was really rich and tasty and I also loved their Christmas chocolate matcha strawberry cream cake!“

“Friendly staff and great breakfast burritos“

“After reading reviews, I tried their pesto bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese. It does not disappoint! It elevates the bagel experience to a next level. I tried the garlic herb cream cheese as well. It's decent but the sun dried cream cheese is a clear winner for me!“

“Ordered an eggless chocolate hazelnut cake on a very short 2-hour turnaround, and they handled it so well. He took the order patiently, prepared it on time, and the cake was fresh, soft, and rich without being overly sweet. Everyone genuinely enjoyed it. Great service and a solid eggless cake option in the Bay Area. Would definitely order again!“

“Mrs. Fields in Valley Fair is elite. Cookies are perfect. Soft, chewy, and just baked to perfection. The gentlemen who served the cookies was friendly, which we appreciated. Sidenote, shame on you heathens leaving one star reviews — there is only one Mrs. Fields located in the San Jose area and you want to shut it down because they didn’t give you milk? Give me a break. Anyone leaving a one star review, just don’t. Because I like eating here. And I don’t want to drive 30 gosh darn minutes to the next closest one. Sheila Washington, who left the one star review below me, can safely be ignored. She must be the Cookie Monster. Anyways, eat cookies from here and support the business.“

“I came to pick up a online order so my interaction was brief and I unfortunately didn’t get the name of the woman at the register but I came in on 3/21/26 @ 2:20pm and the lady at the register was absolutely delightful! She was so nice and so welcoming! Excellent service!“

“Paris Avenue is a delightful bakery with a cozy French atmosphere. We stopped by and tried the veggie quiche, which was flavorful and perfectly baked, along with a pastry that was light and delicious. The service was quick, making for a pleasant experience. I’d love to come again to try their cakes, which looked tempting. A great spot for a quick bite or a sweet treat!“

“The best cookies I've ever had! We had a special delivery sent to us and they were still hot! The Chocolate Chip with Sea Salt? Ya, crazy good! I will definitely think of Nox to surprise someone :)“

“This was a much smaller location comparing to the one on El Camino Real. There were 3-4 tables outside in its patio. Pastries and cakes were limited and sold out quickly. But, it’s available food looked as great as the one on El Camino Real😋😋😋. Unfortunately, our English breakfast tea was too much milk and not hot enough😓😓. We enjoyed its honey croissant and Mango croissant.“

“Fancy Flavors provided select miniature desserts for our wedding day. We were pleased with the size, presentation, and cost. This company was very easy to work with. We highly recommend this company if you are on the search for shareable desserts for any event.“

“Einfach top. Immer wieder ein Besuch wert.👍“

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area“

“Adorable little café with amazing coffee and pastries! The cappuccino was perfect, and the croissant tasted fresh out of the oven. Super cozy atmosphere and kind staff. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Debbie is an absolutely brilliant baker and human all around. Her response time is fantastic, she was SO kind and helpful, and most importantly - her flavors are amazing! After our first tasting, I joked with my fiancé that I wanted her to adopt me. She totally understood our vision with having edible flowers, and the day after the wedding, my family kept raving about the cake and asking if I could get the recipe for the frosting! We never had to worry about a thing with Debbie, she's our fairy god-baker. :)“

“Hands down the best bakery I have ever been to. And I’ve gone to France and ate at those bakeries but this one beats them. I can not recommend enough, it is a must have.“

“Necesitas un Pan Dulce fix in Campbell? Been wanting a freshly made Torta? This is the spot! It's that classic hole in the wall business that hooks you up with what you been craving. I been going outside of Campbell to get Pan Dulce for years, and this whole time this business has been behind the Burger King at Winchester and Hamilton. I'm not writing to be tripping off the price of anything. I'm here to confirm the Pan Dulce is great, and that Carne Asada Torta hits the spot! They even sell some full on Cakes that would be perfect for birthday or celebration. Check it out. And don't take all the Maranitos ay. Save me some!“

“Yesterday I purchased the guava coffee cake and tiramisu from The Kibler Elf at the Italian Festival in San Jose. Delicious!!! I can't wait to have more of their products. Yum yum yum yum yum!“

“Bakery known for high quality pastries and cakes with unique flavors. I ordered an earl gray cloud cake over the phone the previous day and picked it up as soon as the store opened. Upon arrival, I was enticed by the fresh smell of bread and saw they were packaging freshly made bread so I bought their milk cream bread and coffee bun to try. Definitely glad I did because the fresh pastries tasted amazing! Pastries are average priced compared to competitors but their quality and flavors give them the edge. Staff were also patient and kind, helping recommend to me their most popular pastries while ringing up my order. I would definitely come back to try their different pasties and other cake flavors.

Their coffee buns ($4) and milk cream bread ($3.50) were perfect. The coffee buns had a subtle scent of coffee that filled the air upon unwrapping it, and the bun itself had a mildly sweet flavor with a fluffy, hollow and chewy interior. There milk cream bread had a perfectly sweet cream filling that paired well with the butter and fluffy dough surrounding it.

In all honesty the earl gray cloud foam cake was missing the earl gray flavor I was looking for. However the cake overall was enjoyable – the chocolate cake layers were smooth and buttery while the cream around the cake was the perfect sweetness. I just wished the cream had more earl gray essence.“

“2 out of 3 times my bagel was toasted just right (one time was burned). Those are pretty good odds. If you get there early, the bagels are still warm from being freshly made and are even more delicious. They are generous with the schmear, which is nice compared to other places that are stingy with it. There is a cozy dining area, which is just right for eating my bagel while still waking up.“

“I stopped here this morning just to get some GF food. I have never been here before and heard about it from a coworker and wanted to try it.
The bakery is inside of the Polenteria restaurant (see pic for guidance to the entrance). The closest parking is the lot surrounding Victory Lane. I was able to find a spot when I arrived around 11 am Thursday even though it was fairly full.
I checked the restaurants menu when I got home and found out it had an 'entire gluten free Italian menu'. Now I have to go back for dinner sometime.
I got a 3 pack of Jalapeno bagels for $12, 2 large cookies at $5 each, and a brownie for $9. It was pricier than another GF bakery I had recently visited in another town.“
