50 Best Bakeries near Del Mar

“This is one unique, totally and truly authentic Paris bakery & Cafe, 3rd Generation family (grandma's) recipe, you will enjoy their croissant, bunch of cakes just not possible to try everthing at once even though my wife tried and failed lol sitting area outside gets really busy summer time. Clean place, very well taken care of. Paid Parking garage. Very friendly staff. Most important, be prepared cuz this place will make your wallet feel it, but you get what you paid for.“

“I like the cookies. But the last time I went to Crumbl, we walked in and waited for six minutes. The worker in the store totally ignored us. Finally, we tried the self-checkout, but the credit card reader wasn’t working. So we waited for five more minutes. She still ignored us. Finally, we got her attention, and we had to enter the credit card number manually.

I only gave it four stars because the worker could tell we were upset, so she gave us a free cookie. Also, $5.50 for one cookie?!“

“Delicious food and great value, great atmosphere“

“We stopped by Darshan Bakery hoping to grab a cinnamon roll, but they were out at the time. We ended up getting the pull-apart cinnamon roll instead. The flavor was good, but I do wish it had been served warm or at least offered the option to warm it up. The bakery itself has a cozy vibe, we went at 9:20am, we’d definitely give it another try earlier in the day next time.“

“Only had lunch here two times but it was absolutely the best deli meal I have had and I am originally from Manhattan. The food is the best, generous portions, the staff is great, prices are good for today’s times and for what you get. We will be back!!!❤️“

“I went in for the first time a week ago and ordered a custom birthday cake and the staff were so kind and accommodating to what i asked for, and the cake looked exactly like the picture i showed them! The cake was delicious and even though it was pricey i would definitely buy from them again for upcoming holidays, the quality was incredible and it tasted so fresh!“

“The cheesecakes here are so good. Super soft, moist, and fluffy! They’re slightly sweet, which is so addicting. I love the original flavor the most. The pandan one wasn’t that good.
The strawberry burnt basque cakes is also very good. It’s better than the original one.
Parking sucks though because the shop shares a small lot with many other stores, so it’s always difficult to find parking unless you come right when they open.“

“Incredible and beautiful pastries and croissants! I love all croissants! They have many options and all made fresh. Annie and her families are kind and friendly. If you ask me for the recommendations when visiting San Diego, I would definitely say YOU MUST COME HERE!“

“Everything is spectacular but i especially looooove their lemon bars! 🧡“

“The cookies 🍪 are amazing!“

“I'm retired but I like it more than others because the service here is fast and they always have cookies available

Parking: I think it's okay except that there are more businesses and a restaurant on one side and it takes longer but it is very big“

“1st time visitor to this cookie shop. My daughter raved about these cookies.

Anyway my choice of Kris’ cookie ——Exceeds a cookie, it’s a 2 layer cake cookie! So moist & flavorful - Crumbl “hits it out of the park” on this recipe 😍“

“Great Italian Pastries and coffee in the morning and perfect Italian sandwiches at lunch. Ken and his family know how to bake!“

“Four paws up! Love me their Thanksgiving dinner.“

“Love Broad st Dough. Many varieties of donuts all made to order.“

“one of the best bakeries in SD...definitely the best caneles we've ever had! The menu changes every once in a while but we can always count on them to have delicious treats. Our favorites right now are the caneles and the monkey bread!“

“I love it very delicious and fresh very friendly highly recommended 😍“

“Fabulous foods and goodies. Love this place.“

“The cake was incredible! And the cupcakes were phenomenal. Everybody was raving about the cake and the cupcakes. It was absolutely delicious and exactly what I wanted! Believe it or not my nephew took the banner off after we lit the candles and sang and he rolled it up and ate the whole thing like a burrito! I am definitely going to recommend you to family and friends. You are an incredible magical baker! did I mention that everybody was raving about it! The taste was absolutely divine!!! Chocolate lovers cake, and cupcakes with raspberry cream frosting! Thank you for making my birthday perfect!!“

“Food from heaven! I moved away from San Diego but I asked my friend to take balboa bakery all the way for me. My persian azizam pissed them off saying this is not even the authentic middle eastern bakery but trust me that little brown flower will make you forget what authenticity is“

“What a delicious and unique treat! I buy them by the jar! The original and strawberry are my favorites. 😋“

“Food is delicious with great affordable prices. Definitely worth the drive.“

“delicious cookies and amazing staff!“

“The people working there are always so great, I had a problem accessing my free bday cupcake online and they took care of it in person. Their gluten-free red velvet is the best! And I love that they're having more gluten-free options too. They have the cutest Irish coffee green frosting cupcakes right now for Saint Patrick's Day.“

“I ordered the customized cake for my husband’s birthday. Maryam created the exact design that i wanted exactly. The cake tasted awesome delicious. Everyone in party liked the taste. Huge Thanks Cakey Bakey for always such a beautiful design and taste made it. I'm so glad to know your place. You are always helpful and kind. Always good service from Cakey Bakey ?❤️“

“Finally we got to visit and see what this bakery offers. Oftentimes, when we want to swing by its already closed by 5pm. Its a small bakery that offers similar breads from what you see at 85' only this one feels more homey than mass produced.
Today was specifically looking for mocha cake. However, i found coffee cake so that should be similar. Am also trying the strawberry cake. Wanted to try some cookies next time. No more pork floss during our visit at 4:30pm. But they still have couple of meat pies.“

“A cute bakery decorated in blue. The interior of the store is based on white with blue and wood accents, creating a refreshing atmosphere. The breads are neatly arranged in the showcases and shelves, and that alone makes you feel good. The lineup of small items such as coffee and tote bags for sale is also cute.“

“Like a few others here, I am a native New Yorker with a love for authentic and delicious rugulach with proper and freash ingredients.Chewy's rugulach is the best there is here on the west coast.I pick up the chocolate rugulach at the cookie bar at Whole Foods Market in El Segundo, and you should too! Just the most delicious snack one could ask for. Love the raspberry (not usually a Raspberry fan of anything) and the apricot as well!“

“So good! I tried the cinnamon roll and was absolutely blown away! In my option it’s the best gf cinnamon roll I’ve ever had. Even my gluten eating fiancé was impressed and said he couldn’t tell it was gf. The honey nut bread is tasty and so was the cookie that I sampled. I’m excited to try all the things!“

“If you want to taste French pastries in Santiago, don't hesitate to choose this place, with affordable prices and a great environment😊“

“Their food was amazing! I had the panini vegano and I’ve been searching online how to make that eggplant tofu paste. Everything went so well in that sandwich! It also had olives, vegan feta, arugula and a hint of harissa (in the menu it said red bell pepper or something like that, but I believe they used harissa and it was the best!!). I can’t wait to go again and get the same and get other things haha. My partner and I also tried their pistachio croissant, which h was delicious! Their matcha was great, and the drinks highlight was their dirty chai. Everything was sooo good!“

“Cute bakery, but they need to be more attentive to their desserts. They were delicious and had a mix of flavors, they were some trays that were empty and the employees didn’t paid to much attention. Prices are likely the same as the competition. You get access to the bakery through the Asian market. Spacious parking lot.“

“We just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to SusieCakes for making Audrey’s day today. She had just come from a vaccine doctor appointment and I promised she could pick out a special cupcake that I’d planned to pay for with cash. But due to COVID changes, only credit cards are accepted and I’d completely forgotten mine. We went to check the car for a card with no luck, and while out there, the employee came out with Audrey’s cupcake as a ‘gift’ instead. THANK YOU for making my daughter’s day because I was feeling so bad I was going to have to skip her special treat because I didn’t have the right form of payment. We’ll be back for sure! The cupcake was delicious!!“

“The taro bingsoo was so gooooooood!“

“My daughter brought me a banana vegan cake 🍰 And it was amazing ❤️❤️❤️“

“Hidden lil gem! (Inside supermarket to the left from entrance, across from Ngon Ngon, my other fave)
Turon: nice and crispy cronchy. Not super sugary or heavy, very delicious
Carioca: Sugary, nice crunchy crust, bit of coconut flavor on inside.
Only 1$ each!!!!!
Cash is easier for the lady but they do have tap to pay, owner is a bit older 🥺 so I recommend cash.
Got a pan of ube hopia as well but haven't tried yet because I'm bringing to share, anyway I recommend checking this place out!“

“The Ube Cheesecake was absolutely delicious! First I thought maybe I was too hungry these morning so I ordered their Basque cheesecake for take away and it wasn`t mistake! It is so tasty with gentle texture and ideal cool temperature for serving! Highly recommended to try!“

“Best scones outside of Scotland. Proper British shape. Fantastic ❤️“

“La Jolla Baking Co.
Can you please add more "Brioche French Toast" to Costco shelf? After I taste it I've been looking for it but I don't see it anymore at Costco...only sourdough and buns. I love It!!!
Thank you
Inah“

“It is an absolute gem for dessert lovers! From the moment you walk in, the sweet aroma of freshly baked cakes greets you, creating an inviting and cozy atmosphere. Their selection is both wide and creative — from classic chocolate truffle to unique seasonal flavors, every bite is pure bliss.
Whether you’re celebrating a special event or just craving something sweet, Cake Korner is the perfect spot. Highly recommend giving it a try — it’s a delightful experience every single time!“

“Pleasant people, very accommodating,the place is clean“

“Best Gluten free, pure REAL ingredients that tastes AMAZING! I only put in what I know my body recognizes and I can trust without question every bite of Island Girl Bakes that I'm eating good for me FOOD! I tell everyone I know about this company because IT IS THAT AWESOME!“

“I ordered a pack of Spanish Bread and a spicy chicken empanada, and they were delicious! The only thing I would change would be the amount of filling in the Spanish bread, but everything else was great. The staff were nice and packed everything up nicely. I’ll definitely be back.

Parking: It’s mixed with the whole plaza, so the parking is almost busy all the time.

Kid-friendliness: There are brownies and cakes.“

“Enjoyed the Japanese cheesecake and boba tea at Mad for Cheesecake in Pacific Highlands Ranch in Carmel Valley. The taro and brown sugar milk teas were very tasty. It was our first time having Japanese cheesecake and we’re surprised it was more like ice cream than an American cheesecake. Loved the opportunity to try something new! Very friendly and quick service. Recommend!“

“Best 5am service today for my flight back to Atlanta!! BEST YUMMIES!!! She was the nicest server and very kind for 5am!!!!“

“Trining’s is “in transition” and it shows. The front is a bit disorganized, but well divided into baked goods and ready-made take out products. The menu is hand-written on a wall-mounted white board (see pictures), but is easily understood and clearly legible.

Now, for the food—Very good! Loved the lumpia. The sweet chili sauce had just a hint of heat to it. Perfect!

We also got chicken adobo and pancit. Both were excellent. Since I ordered two combos to go, I was very careful not to tip the containers and tried to avoid contaminating the pancit with adobo sauce. All for naught. I must have leaned on the brakes a bit too heavily because the very fluid adobo sauce obeyed the laws of physics and colored both the pancit and lumpia. With dark, rich, peppery adobo flavoring. But—it was still great! The chicken adobo was tender and tasty, and the pancit was yummy, even though it tasted more like adobo than pancit. The lumpia, as I expected, was to die for. Crisp and crunchy with a hint of heat from the chili sauce. So good!

Well done Trining’s. Get your front together and I’ll be back. Can I bring some friends with me? I’ve got some East coast buddies who think egg rolls are the bomb. Your lumpia can easily blow that theory out of the water…“

“Had my first taste of Boudin sourdough bread in Disneys California Adventure. The bread is just as good here but not warm. The chowder was really good in the bread bowl and so was the chili. (There are brands in their chili). No line to order but we could have ordered from our phone if there was. Plenty of tables to choose from. Needs a good sweet tea option though.“

“Delicious scratch-made food! I had the breakfast special and the plate was full to the brim of yummy eggs, breakfast potatoes with onions & bacon and toasted, buttered baguette! And, oh! The coffee (I had the Le Praline) was divine! My friends and I sat outside and I could almost swear I was back in Paris, leisurely watching the world go by!“
