39 Best Bakeries near Lakeside

“The meat pies were phenomenal 😍 and the chicken and beef empanadas were soooo good! I love the green sauce that they give you with the empanadas! The cheese bread was awesome and they gave us a Cheese Danish to try with some coffee ☕️ we called at closing time but they stayed open for us!! Great people!!! Will definitely come back again!“

“I found Taste of Home Cakes and cup cakes by pure chance. I was looking for a very specific cake to compliment my sister's baby shower theme. She was having a Frieda Kahlua baby theme. Armen was professional and extremely helpful. The cake was not only stunning but moist and delicious. All of our guest could not stop raving about the cake. I have found a favorite bakery for every special occasion and can not recommend them enough!“

“The cookies are hit or miss most of the time. However, the staff here is always ( well almost) so friendly and kind. I don’t visit as much as I’d like because it’s cost prohibitive. And well id most likely gain too much weight if I enjoyed these more often.“

“It is a great group meeting to support and encourage business growth in the area.“

“The cake we ordered exceeded my expectations by far I have a very general theme and color and it came out amazing!!! The flavor was perfect seriously the best cake ever!! Once again beyond happy and I will continue to get all my cakes here 🫶🏼“

“My mom was visiting San Diego with my neither and brought home a box. This backlava is delicious!!!! El Paso, TX approved!!!“

“I love their weekly flavors“

“Noticed the shop driving by, we've never been in one so Hubs and I decided to stop and go in. Nice to have a close place other than the bakery in the grocery store, to get a special cake. We tried the white chocolate raspberry mini cake. First time and cannot say enough ... absolutely heaven! Best cake I've ever had in my life. If you want a very special treat, this is it! Sooooooooooooooo good!“

“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.“

“I’ve been wanting to try NBC for along time, recently moved to Santee and this location is very close to my house. I tried a few of their cakes. The red velevet is very good and moist. The carrot one is a little dry and have a giant hole in the middle. I personally love carrot cake but i’d not get it again here. The biscoff and new marble are soo goood! I wish i could choc opt for the balls though. It’s not that bad but i’m not a fan.

I also wish that they have Less icing option available. I love cheesecake icing but it gets overwhelm when it’s too much.

Shout out for the customer service! Visited them twice and received a fabulous service on both visits! This place is my fav when i crave desserts.“

“Sooooo good!!!!! I am trying “mostly” vegan this year so this was such a find! We got pastries for my sister’s birthday. She has lots of food sensitivities and can’t eat dairy. The PERFECT birthday treat! VERY friendly and helpful staff!“

“Hit up the New Nutmeg on Danielson Street in Poway. I heard their Scripps location closed because the landlord raised the rent so high it was unaffordable for them to stay there. We were a large group so we were able to order a bunch of menu items. There was a line but its a very popular place so we were not surprised. We started with some espresso drinks, and agua frescas. We had the Hearty Bowl, Avocado Toast, and Amazing Burrito. Some in our group had the new Grandpa's Breakfast Bun with the egg and spam, and the Porky. They are very flexible with special orders including one in our group who is gluten sensitive. We finished, sharing their in-house baked pastries (they have gluten-free pastries); the warmed espresso scones and cinnamon buns (don't ever leave without having the "buns"). I work in the area so Nutmeg is now my go-to for breakfast before work, or lunch. Its also located nearby Costco and Home Depot, convenient for a weekend meal before or after my weekly Costco runs.“

“IN LOVE with the food they make here. I've tried their dinner rolls, sandwich bread, croissants, and cookies. They are all delicious and fairly priced!
Favorites so far; Rosemary olive oil sandwich bread, garlic parm dinner rolls, ANY of their stuffed croissants, and I'm obsessed with their triple chocolate cookies (not overwhelming and perfectly crunchy).
This place is Cash Only with some rotating stock, so it's worth checking in every week. I plan to remain a regular.“

“Las manteconchas 🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷🐷“

“Love the food, and the workers there are super sweet. ( pun not intended )“

“I ordered 150 variety of mini pastries for a church event. Everyone enjoyed them and loved the professional designs and attention to detail. Everything tasted amazing and looked beautiful! I'll be back! Thank you!“

“The only bread I eat. Specifically the brown pita. Tastes the best.“

“Hands down the best sugar free keto bread I’ve ever tried! I got the St. James Spanish Cake for $12 at the Little Italy farmers market. It had the right amount of sweetness from the oranges and the bread was moist and soft making it the perfect combination for my morning coffee. I just got it Saturday and it is now Monday, practically gone. Time to ration for the rest of the week haha
Will be back again for another!“

“Beautifully baked products at a value for buck price range“

“Ahearn Team Real Estate purchased 300 pies to give back to the community for thanksgiving. The pies were delicious, kosher, and a huge success, thank you to Langs! They were delivered at the promised time and very reasonable on the price for such a large order. Our clients in the community were thrilled with how tasty they were and the presentation was lovely. We look forward to coming back to Langs each year for our annual giveaway.“

The people there were friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends and family.“

“I absolutely love this place. Baklava was fresh and very authentic not the fake style baklava you find at other places. they also have high quality fresh coffee from americanos to lattes to iced coffees with cold foams. i wish i lived closer i would get my coffee everyday from this place.“

“Excellent sweets shop with high-quality products and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. Special thanks to Habib the Owner for professionalism, friendliness, and efficient service. His highly trained employees made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended.“

“This very well could be my very favorite Trader Joe's I've ever been to. I love how much space is throughout the store and how it's easier to navigate throughout! The best part: the parking lot is so large and easily accessible! Employees were very kind, the store is well stocked and clean, and what's not to love about TJ's products?!“

“Today, I bought a cake for my sister, and the service was excellent. The staff was friendly, joking, and laughing, creating a great atmosphere. I don’t understand why some people say their service isn’t good—we’ve been buying from them regularly and have never had a bad experience! I would give them a well-deserved 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, plus an extra 10 stars for the wonderful lady who provided outstanding service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“I love their food. Wish they have the langs challah bread, their challah bread is not something you can do kiddush with.“

“This small business is community-centered and the treats are made with love. I highly recommend the beautiful and delicious cookies for any special occasion- or just because. You will be proud to show these cookies off.. incredible!“

“This place has the absolute hands down, best baklava period! Their variety and quality are unmatched! Wherever you are in the San Diego area, please do yourself a favor and get over there! You will not regret it!“

“Dream Fountain is the place to go for all your desserts and catering needs. Martin and Ivan do an amazing job on their work, and their cakes are very detailed. For my sons baptism cake, it was done at Dream Fountain. It was so detailed and was very good. My wife and I couldn't have imaged the cake any better then this! They never disappoint!! Highly recommended!“

“Visiting the area & stopped in because it was close to where we were - glad we did. The best frappes we’ve had, no joke! Cozy little coffee shop. Good service.“

“Coffee is really good !! Owners are incredibly nice !“

“If you're ever in El Cajon you have to stop here. It's a total must-do anytime I come back to town.
​These are not those silly, fancy donuts that places like Krispy Kreme or Dunkin' try to sell you. They are the real ones. The donuts you actually remember from when you were a kid.
​Seriously, forget those imitators and stick with the originals right here. This place is a must-have for the great taste and a powerful trip down memory lane.“

“This is a very calm warming coffee shop. The owner is super friendly and welcoming. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Excellent service and I enjoy going there anytime when open.😁“
