28 Best Bakeries in Garden Grove

“This is an incredible bakery, I would argue the best in the area. I come out of my way for their croissants and macarons, and everything they make looks fresh and beautiful.

I don’t typically write reviews because I don’t experience intense loyalty to many businesses, but I have been coming to this place for years and it has always fulfilled my expectations.

Utterly delightful, kind, quick, fresh, tasty, a beautiful selection. A hidden gem— tell your friends.“

“My daughter only loved the salty egg cupcakes and jelly coffee there. Delicious desserts 👍🏻 reasonable prices and honestly loved the serviced🥰. Those young people there always called my name every time I picked up, even on some days when I wore a mask 😷😂 And i got a gift dessert on Father’s Day either 😂😍“

“I’ve been going to this bakery since I was a kid and the sprinkle cookies haven’t changed at all. They’re still as light, buttery and delicious as always. They’re also an amazing price for a pack of ten. Highly recommend and don’t forget to bring cash!“

“We dined at Amarith Table last night for the first time and can't wait to tell all of our friends about what a Great Restaurant it is. There is literally something on the menu for everyone. The food is delicious ontop of being all organic. The service was top-notch: friendly & efficient. Every staff member came to our table to introduce themselves and to see how things were. When we left we felt like we were part of The Amarith Family. We cant wait to Come Back...Woohoo!“

“Went at 3pm on a Monday and it was not busy. The barista up front was
very friendly and helped me pick both a drink and a bag of beans to take home. I could not have asked for better customer service.

I ordered the black forest latte and it was an easy 5/5 for me. Not too sweet while, having a strong coffee taste with a hint of cherry and the cookie crumbs rounding it out. I will come back to order it again or try other drinks.“

“Great KFC Wings and cold beer!“

“Delicious cake and very inexpensive.“

“Friendly workers. Delicious pastries.“

“These guys really out did themselves. these cupcakes were the hit of my baby shower!! thank you so much.“

“The Blueberry Chiffon cake is my favorite here. It is beautifully decorated with perfection and the design is different each year. I also love the Rainbow Cake which is super colorful, and the Strawberry Soft Cream Cake is always delicious!!“

“My family and friends in Orange County-California often come to Van's Bakery to buy cakes, candy, beef jerky and especially delicious coffee. We then moved to Texas but continued to buy and they delivered to our door fast and on time. The dedicated service of the Owner and staff is commendable. Vietnamese friends should stop by and buy products from Van's Bakery, famous in Little Saigon Vietnamese community. As 2024 begins, we wish Owners and staff a Happy & prosperous New Year!

“Accidentally found this hidden gem on Yelp and oh man, hands down the best kimbap I’ve ever had! It’s just a small shop, but their kimbap is absolutely delicious. I rarely leave reviews, but this place really stands out. The auntie and uncle who run it are the sweetest, too. I honestly hope more people discover this spot. I’ve been stopping by every week now—my sister said the same thing, it’s seriously addictive:)“

“This boba shop is a hidden gem! Not only do they serve fantastic drinks, but their mochi doughnuts are absolutely to die for. The boba drinks are perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. They offer a great variety of flavors, and everything is customizable to your liking.

The mochi doughnuts are a must-try—crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and just the right amount of sweetness. They have a range of unique flavors that keep me coming back, from classic ones to more adventurous options. The combination of the chewy texture and the rich glaze makes each bite pure bliss.

Whether you're grabbing a drink or indulging in their delicious doughnuts, you won't be disappointed. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is welcoming, and everything is made fresh. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a sweet treat and a refreshing drink!“

“I've been visiting this location for a couple years now. I'm mainly there for a quick grab-n-go coffee and sometimes pastries.

Parking: This spot is located in a plaza with a large parking lot. Plenty of parking spots; usually easy to find.

Ambiance/Environment: They have a medium sized space with booth and table seating. It's a warm setting. It can be studious, but I'd say it's more so a social environment. The tables and seating can use an hourly cleaning. The tables are sticky majority of the time, and the seats have crumbs on them. The pastries and cakes are beautifully displayed along the left side of the wall. It does get empty mid-day and towards the end of day. Not sure how often they restock the pastries, but it could use some work during the day.

Service: It truly depends on who's working. Some workers are nice and efficient while other workers can improve on their professionalism. A few examples: a worker at the register did not say one word, took my order, and that was it. When you order a drink, they usually bring the drink to you. The same worker placed my drink on the table and again, did not say anything. I was looking the other direction and did not realize my drink was on the table. Another worker left mid transaction while I was ordering to assist another customer that rudely cut the line. There's also an inconsistency with how their drinks are made. Again, depending on who's working, your drink can either taste good or bad. There can be a language barrier at times, but majority of them understand and speak English.

Drinks, pastries, & cakes:

Drinks - 99% of my visits are for my coffee fix before work. I enjoy trying their seasonal drinks. I love lattes, and every season I always try the newest latte. Again, depends on who's working, the drink can either taste good or bad. From my experience, majority of the time my drinks come out exactly how I prefer it. Not overly sweet, flavored, and strong with caffeine. Other times, it can be too milky, lack of flavors, or not strong.

Pastries - I love their pastries. Presentation is always on point, and it tastes even better than it looks. The Ham & Cheese, Smoked Sausage Bread, and Curry Croquette are my favorite savory pastries, especially when they're warmed up. Their sweet pastries are fresh and tastes delicious. My go-to is the Strawberry Croissant.

Cakes - The cakes are limited, so I recommend purchasing one asap. The designs are very cute. The variety of flavors are appealing. Their Red Velvet Cake is my family's go-to on occasions. Their Cappuccino Cake is the most decorative and definitely tastes exactly as described. From the cakes we've tried so far, they aren't too dry or overly sweet.

Pricing: Highly recommend joining their rewards app for points and monthly coupons. I only visit when they send out coupons. I really enjoy their pastries, cakes, and drinks. My main star off is for the inconsistent service.“

“We had to search but found their new location. Service was great as was the fish & chips. They also gave us a complimentary slice of banana cream and cherry pie for my and my daughter’s birthday. Can’t wait to go back.“

“I ordered the pork banh mi and an iced coffee, it came out to $10 and some change. Banh mi has a decent amount of meat, pork is soft and the baguette is nice. Good sandwich at a decent price.

There are a good amount of unlisted items here, desserts and snacks etc prepackaged on the counter as well as whats on the menu.“

“We are so grateful and happy on how catering order turned out. The food we ordered was excellent. The entire food for the weekend was delivered on time and excellent. It was delicious. Everyone was happy with the food. These was from Breakfast, Lunch and Brunch. Excellent choice and price was reasonable. Thank you Blanca!!! We appreciate you and your team.“

“Fast services and friendly staff. The ladies always greeted us with their brightest smiles. Roasted pork baguette and egg coffee are worth trying. Also recommend durian coffee for durian lovers. I oftentimes saw them crack fresh durian and put a generous amount on our drink. I have tried most highly rated coffee shops in OC, coffee here are a bit stronger than most. Definitely a hidden gem“

“Been going here for years since i was kid. One of the best (and cheapest) places for a decent meal. Banh mi stands up really well (only a few places nearby beat it, but the prices are slightly higher) and prepackaged food is decent enough. Atmosphere is
meh, but you are usually here to grab and go, not sit down.
Just, never, ever, get the boba.“

“Always good place to stop and have a quick bite to eat �“

“Chicken enchiladas are so delicious and the quesadillas oh men are really good, the only thing if you're really hungry go somewhere else, because the wait is about half hour , but you can also go when you're not really hungry by the time the food gets there you'll be ?“
