Smith’s Bakery is a gem of a place in Bakersfield, truly amazing. Everything I’ve had from there for the 25 years I’ve been going there has been nothing but the best. But my God, are they overpriced. They raised their prices dramatically during the pandemic, which I understand to a point. But now they appear to be arbitrarily raising prices just because. And it happens in such a short amount of time that it’s kind of pitiful. For example, they raised the price of a box of their thumbprint cookies by $2 in ONE month. What justifies THAT much of a cost increase in such a short period of time?

How I love champagne cake, smiley cookies, alligator cookies. So many childhood memories. I still stop by whenever I'm in town to pick up treats. The :-) cookies are great frozen. I have now introduced my daughter to Smith's bakery and we have to stop by every time we are in town. It's a little slice of my childhood, and it tastes exactly the same over 40 years later. The people working in the store could not be nicer and it's just what I remember from being a kid.

The smiley cookies are to die for! The thumb print cookies I used to love eating growing up but upon revisit, they’re not as good as I remember. Although these cookies are a classic to Bakersfield, they’re becoming extremely overpriced and for that I had to knock down my rating by one star. $2.49 for smileys and $0.99 for thumb print cookies… not to mention the decorated holiday cookies, those are upwards of $3.49-4.49 a cookie… Smith’s should at least consider offering a discount for purchasing the dozen or even bigger bulk of cookies at a time!

Thank you reading my review. Smith's Bakeries has been my favorite Bakery for many, many years! I typically purchase a dozen donuts for me and my neighbors and let me tell you, they love them as well. I have to make a confession here. I make a special trip to their gas station location to grab two champagne cupcakes. Don't judge me. Ha!!

The bakery is awesome but the people working there are so rude. People should be happy it's CHRISTMAS. ???

The Smith's Bakery is located inside a Sully's gas station. Very friendly staff and a great selection. Store is always always well kept and clean and stock well. Would definitely recommend this location.

I live close to Smiths and I've never had bad experience til recently. The bake good are good but today I called the Ming location to ask if they had a coffee cake. While the person that answered was just so unfriendly. Yes it's 30 min before you close but we're is your customer serve. Make some suggestions or let me know if you will have something tomorrow. I said thanks and I didn't even get a response back. I'll stick with going to union store where those woman are sweet and friendly

I love Smith's bakery I'm from Los Angeles we don't have bakeries like this out there. Maybe that's a good thing because I would be as big as a house cuz I would be eating there everyday I love their pink champagne cake and cupcakes so every time we're out here visiting family I make it a point to stop. I recommend this place a hundred times over
