19 Best Bakeries in Escondido

“Incredible folks out here at James. Really a locals-only gem in Escondido. Pastries can't be beat; the cortado gives me hope. ☕️🥐“

“My husband ordered me a carrot cake for my birthday- I love carrot cake 🥕 This was the best carrot cake I’ve ever had. The cake was moist and the frosting was the perfect consistency. Thank you!“

“I went to O’Brien’s for the first time today. My Mother-in-law highly recommended the restaurant so I could meet my friend. The food was delicious. The service was great- Thank You Sarah and team. I am so excited to try the different types of breads and pastries. O’ Brien’s is known for their delicious breads, especially sour dough. If you are in the San Diego area, differently check out this restaurant! Sit down and relax with your favorite cup of coffee or tea with a sweet pastry, great bread or something from their delicious menu.“

“We just hosted our family pizza night and this pizza dough hit it out of the park. To quote my nephew “this is the best pizza I’ve ever had”. We’ve also had the sourdough and seedy sourdough all of which were amazing!!!!“

“I had the chocolate cake and it was to die for! Few things I didn't like. Package is a bit misleading. I thought there were chocolate chips. And from the Saranwrap I thought it was a local small business, not some business located in Cali that's been around since 1975. I was like wow a small business with the approved labels! Now the packaging makes it feel cheap. Cake was still amazing. But I don't know if I will buy again.“

“Staff was great, food was excellent, loved the art work.“

“Amazing! My wife has a gluten allergy so can’t go many places and ensure the food is 100% so not worth the risk. But here there’s no worry’s and the price of the food was amazing for the huge portions we got which we both have another meal from. It was truly delicious and made completely fresh. Definitely going back for special occasions and even telling friends who aren’t gluten free. I’m not and the carne asada fries were the best I’ve had. We live in Oceanside and they beat Ramones and Sanchos

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian sandwiches and sides with plenty of salads

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“

“This place makes the absolute best torta! The ingredients are fresh the bread is manufique 🤌 *chef's kiss*
They know what's up! Plus the staff is so very courteous. I recommend Goyo's any day of the week for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You can't go wrong with their menu.“

“Wifey wanted some hard rolls right before dinner, so at 4:50 pm I look for a real bakery near me. Aurora Bakery was closest and to be honest, we've been driving by this facility for 20+ yrs and have always been curious as to why there's always people inside and in some instances, a line of people to get in. I walked in, was helped by the girls working there, as well as a patron who shared the mass inventory of items available. So, I got my two hard rolls and a variety of other items, and they are exceptional. We've now got a great bakery near by and blows away store bought bread. Just took us 29+ years to finally walk in.“

“Mother Lovin' Baking is simply the best. I have ordered everything from cupcakes to phenomenal peanut butter cookies and it's all so tasty, I don't think I've ever tried something I didn't like. I have had goods baked for multiple events and it's always consistent as well, no bad treat in the bunch!“

“The bread is quite good, the service that the girl who gave me is very kind, the only thing I don't like is that it is a little unorganized, it should be fixed and it would be much better because the things it offers are very delicious.“

“I am beyond impressed with the staff here. Very welcoming. Special shout out to the lady that worked in the bakery tonight she was kind offered fresh bread when I was browsing the selection and she was very helpful. I wish I remembered her name. (I am terrible with names) she was clocking out when I was walking out and she waved and said have a great night and remembered my name. (I am a notoriously slow and unorganized shopper 🤣). The date tonight is 12/5/25 if Vons wants to look up the bakery staff member working tonight.“

“This bakery is hidden in a short strip of businesses. My husband and I wanted some authentic Mexican baked items. A friend found this place, and it was excellent. Everything there is made fresh and baked there. The prices are beyond reasonable. We purchased four different items and it only cost us $2.80! Everything was delicious and the man behind the counter was friendly and helpful. He explained what everything was to us. You must stop here, you will not be disappointed. I wish this place was near where we live, I'd go there every week if I could!“

“Well, I liked it. I had a small get-together and I ordered a cake and they roast it with the design you ask for and what I liked they roast it as they ordered it, they don't have it there for a long time and well, I told them what flavor I wanted and they gave it to me I liked it, it was very rich, I asked for it with chocolate... But they have many flavors to choose from... I recommend them.“

“Cinnabon is the best type food ever“

“muy buena comida de calidad y muy amigables y muy sabroso todo“
