50 Best Bakeries near Hermosa Beach

“I don’t have a single bad thing to say about Cafe Bonaparte!! My boyfriend and I are spending the weekend in Hermosa for his birthday and we’ve come to this cafe 3 times and we plan to come again before we leave. Everything was so so good. The bacon, egg and cheese croissant literally made my eyes roll back. All of the pastry’s are fire. Everyone who works here is super kind but especially this one girl (kinda tall, body tea, blonde hair w/ low lights??? And black claw clip). I don’t know her name and clearly don’t know her at all but I could just tell she was a girls girl. She was great and her vibes were amazing. Okay love you bye🤍“

“Natural dog tears shop“

“This is my first time trying thier product... all I can say is it's absolutely amazing! wish we had this type of idea in Canada!!“

“Amazing coffee. I do either plain or vanilla lattes here. The aroma wafting to the street is what pulled me in the first time. I LOVE coffee, and have found it repellent since becoming pregnant. No coffee at home anymore, no Starbucks. But yes to an OffSet latte!“

“Healthy times ten!!! Enjoy this place for many years!!! Hopefully many more to come! So unique! Just what I need!!!“

“Amazing assortment of breads! So many great pastries! A nice and relaxing atmosphere with friendly service!“

“I love this place I would travel so far just to try the cookies every week as they change flavors. It’s so exciting you have to try this place. Specially, in Inglewood the energy is so cool.“

“Come here for the pie! While the cookies we tried were a bit lackluster, the pie was phenomenal. In particular, the passion fruit-tangerine pie amazed—its silken texture and perfectly tuned tartness were a pleasure. The crust was thin and tasty, yet sturdy enough for the slice to be finger food.“

“Run, don’t walk. A fabulous find in the south bay! As good as it gets outside of France. Maybe better.“

“What a treasure! Authentic French pastry delights. Try the savory ones — especially the Curry Ground Beef. Enjoy a stroll around the beachside Riviera Village corner of Redondo Beach, then reward yourself with homemade treats from this family run bakery. Small businesses like this are gems to find and a joy to support.“

“The most beautiful (and delicious) cake I have ever experienced. Thank you so much for sharing your art & talent for baking the best organic deserts in the world. Really exceptional!“

“Can't get enough of their cheesecake cupcakes...all flavors are great! In addition to cupcakes, they serve Louisiana Creole cuisine lunch specials each day. Love this place!
Previous review:
Absolutely beautiful and wonderfully delicious! Ordered these cupcakes in celebration of my birthday last week and Cheesecake de Granger did not disappoint. Have ordered from them previously and they continue to provide high-quality products as well as great customer service.“

“Angel Maid Bakery has gone down hill a little bit. Their hours are not what they say and their lot for parking is very small.

That said, their service is still great and they are very nice.

They are limited in what they will do. If you bring in a photo of a cake you want, chances are they won't be able to do it. They do not do images at all. They have a book and you can pick a cake.

Their selection in store is very good, but I am so sick of most of them having a whipped cream frosting that you have to keep cold. I don't like cold cake. Their selection of butter cream is lacking.

They do have a nice selection of cupcakes with butter cream frosting which is great.

When you have them write on a cake you pre ordered you can tell they took very little time to do it, it is sloppy and there is nothing but what you told them to write. Most bakeries add a little flower or something to present the name.

I just had a lemon curd type cake from them and I noticed the sloppy writing and the cake was so sweet I could not eat it, and of course, it was cold.

I won't be back. That is sad. I will find another bakery that cares. But I still give them a 4 because I know a lot of people like sweet cakes with whipped cream frosting and their service is very good.“

“Best cinnamon rolls ever and I loved it!“

“Marsha was incredible. We were looking for someone who could provide all the dessert for our wedding, bring us something other than a traditional wedding cake experience, and also bring some extra flair to our big day. Marsha did all that and more. Our cake table was decorated so beautifully! She made the most delicious cupcakes of all different flavors for our guests to enjoy. She even made an ADORABLE cake topper for us that everyone raved about. In addition, Marsha made us a gorgeous, delicious, moist 3 layer cake , and she even was able to bring a ROLLED ICE cart too! People could not get over how cool it was to have rolled ice cream at our wedding, especially because Marsha had extra cupcakes to put in with the ice cream. She was so collaborative, easy to work with, and fun. Everything we asked her to do, she accommodate, often gently giving her sage advice along the way. We could not possibly recommend Marsha any higher than we do. She is absolutely incredible and soooo many people raved about their experience with her at our wedding. 10/10 for everything!!“

“The worker was very nice, and the store was clean. We got the Oreo cheesecake mousse, and the tres leches cake slice. We didn't care for the mousse too much, but that was personal preference (not that it was bad). The tres leches cake was where it was at! We both loved it! It was light and balanced, not sopping with milk like some places do. That being said, I think if you're looking for a traditional tres leches slice you might be disappointed. This was more like a traditional, light, white cake. It was delicious though!“

“A friend brought me their Matcha almond croissant, the Black forest Cake even though it really wasn't a black forest it was totally delicious as well as the matcha almond croissant. The croissant can rival any French bakery. It was buttery, soft and absolutely delicious. Thank you ,JJ Bakery“

“Th does historical donut shop holds a very special memory between me and my mother who passed away 7 years ago after my therapy sessions over at Kaiser my mother would always take me over here and treat me to a few donuts this morning my husband and I stopped her with my son who's playing back to Tennessee this morning we shared a few laps in a few memories about his grandmother and I and we enjoyed her donuts and coffee“

“The first time we tried a mochi doughnut, it was so disappointing. That was not the case here! We tried the black sesame mochi doughnut and the ube brioche (?). Honestly, I didn't pay attention to anything other than the fact the latter doughnut was ube... Ube dough with an ube custard. It was basically an ube cloud. Both were absolutely delicious and a textural experience.“

“I feel bad for the one and only employee working there today who's coworker left her with no cookies baked and unable to fulfill the orders. She did the best she could and was apologetic and explained the lack of product. Need to have more than one person running a store like this.“

“Been going there for years, the best bakery in SoCal. Every time I bring a cake or cookies to a gathering, everyone always asks where I got them from!“

“Absolutely delicious Beautiful setting too“

“I got lemon, key lime, praline, sweet potato, strawberry and cream and pineapple. And all are so very good. Light and creamy with deep rich flavor. Can Not Be Beat.“

“Everything here is delicious. I recommend the fruits roll cake.

The fresh homemade mochi they sell at new years is authentic. It goes well with a sauce made from soy sauce and sugar, wrapped in nori; it’s sweet, savory, fragrant and umami!“

“I bought a half dozen cookies yesterday. They were delicious, and my family loved them. Birthday cake was my favorite flavor.“

“I never write reviews but literally set my slice of cake down (really hard to do) because I had to run and write a review. Hands down the best chocolate cake I have ever had in my life! Please support our awesome local businesses! Great customer service and vibe inside! Will be back more than I should because it is THAT good!!“

“Joseph's Bakery is fantastic, I always try to get in here whenever I'm in the area. They have wonderful baked goods (especially the brownies), pastries, and nostalgic little square pizza slices. The staff are wonderful. The family who runs this place is just great; very kind, very welcoming, and happy to share what they've made with you! If you're nearby and you feel like getting a sweet treat, please, for your sake, don't make the mistake of passing this place up.“

“Good bagels at this place“

“Lovely bakery on Main Street. The baguettes and the focaccia are my favorites. The bagels are really good and sliced bread is good too. The sandwiches are excellent and very reasonably priced. Very thankful to have this gem of a place that’s so convenient when I am in town. They also do special advance orders. Bring cash if you want to tip.“

“Omg I love Sweet Potato tarts with the pecan nuts“

“Super cute bakery! Several people sitting around having coffee and pastries.

I have a college who is addicted to pastry/desserts and she has been told she has to go dairy free. The agony!!!

Found this place and was able to grab quite a bit of vegan items for her to try.

So my caveat is all this is amazing for vegan-
Chocolate chip cookies 9/10 would almost not know it was vegan, it was also fresh outta the oven.
Snickerdoodle- 3/10 not my vibe, too crispy
Blueberry Scone- 10/10 she lived it
Janessa cupcake- 7/10 overall a solid strawberry choice
Cookies n Cream Cupcake- 10/10 great cake and frosting
Chocolate Lovers Slice- 15/10 our favorite
Herb Cake- odd but not bad 7/10

Will definitely go back to try their coffee.“

“fresh croissants are so good, I always come back for more! 🤩😋“

“🥰Traveled to El Segundo for other than stumbling across an unassuming brick building with "Bread Bar" on a small sign. Who would have imagined finding a world-class bakery with a splendid selection of breads and pastries. One taste and I, my family and my friends were hooked! And they ship!“

“What a treasure! Authentic French pastry delights. Try the savory ones — especially the Curry Ground Beef. Enjoy a stroll around the beachside Riviera Village corner of Redondo Beach, then reward yourself with homemade treats from this family run bakery. Small businesses like this are gems to find and a joy to support.“

“Probably the best dessert I've ever tasted in Southern California.“

“Love their Guatemalan quesidilla! It's Gf and they will wrap it separately when asked. Their tamales are awesome too! Worth the wait, and there usually is one because their food is fresh and tasty. The place has seats, but most people are visiting on their way in to work and most take their food to go.“

“BEST Panaderia in South Bay for fresh hot bollios or pan dulce, BUT service can sometimes feel like you are handing money to a robot. Yes, I understand sometimes it 6-7am in the early morning, but the counter staff are just lifeless a lot of the time.“

“I bought a 3/4 photo cake sheet cake for a baby shower. It came out very cute and perfect. The staff was extremely sweet and a girl with black hair and tattooed (I didn’t catch her name) even helped take it to the car! She was very sweet. The cake itself was very delicious. We got 1/2 vanilla & 1/2 chocolate with buttercream filling. Adding in the extra costs of a custom photo picture, custom color of the frosting, the size and etc it came out to be $170. I’m extremely pleased with the cake and staff in this location. It was well worth the money!“

“Looked up a local panaderia while visiting LA and found this place. Upon arriving at 6:30 pm on a Wednesday evening and seeing a line out the door I wondered what was going on! It is a small panaderia but the Mexican sweet bread was fantastic! The conchas were just coming out of the oven so I grabbed one and a crème filled empanada. Both were delicious! Will return on my next trip to LA!“

“I love it 🍰🥰 so much I really recommended, it’s grate 🍰🍰🍰“

“Uzoma bakes some really good and delicious cupcakes. She has a large variety and all are extremely tasty! She NEVER disappoints.“

“Starbread Bakery in Carson has the most delicious Señorita Bread — truly one of a kind! It’s perfect with a nice hot coffee. I always buy a box for my customers and it’s been a total hit. Everyone who tries it wants to know where this amazing place is! I’ve never been happier to share something that brings so many smiles. Thank you for making such wonderful Señorita Bread! 💜💜💜💜💜💜👍🏼👍🏼“

“Nawlins Sweet Treats is owned and operated by the sweetest woman who makes the most delicious cakes. My grandmother always told me that the secret ingredient in her delicious food was love, and for sure that's the secret to Cynthia's excellent cakes! We had one to serve and one to award as a prize at my Mardi Gras themed party! Everyone was thrilled!“

“The best cake 🎂 experience you can have , to a time long gone were mom would make a birthday cake from scratch ,reminiscing the 1950’ cooking of good old Americana. Don’t missed the opportunity to taste the past in one bite !!!..“

“Kimberley made my daughters wedding cake and then drove it up to Ojai! The cake was beautiful and tasted amazing and she was a dream to work with! She is crazy talented, has a great team, a great story. Love her.“
