50 Best Bakeries in Los Angeles

“I had been wanting to come here for a long time and try the gluten free birthday cake. It did not disappoint!“

“I love this bakery from childhood! I live in NC now so I really wish they would ship their goodies!“

“You’ll never know it’s vegan, and that’s the best part. These desserts are out of this world delicious.“

“They have very good pastries, bánh my and moon cake“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“Everything is good. Loved the coffee“

“Excellent place for all bakery products. This always a queue, soliciting the lovely Brazil. I loved the big Sangki bread and the Banana Bread. The hummus and yoghurt dip, what's awesome? It's her secret recipe for over the years. I heard conversations where the third generation had come to buy from the bakery. It is an excellent place to have your morning breakfast and start the day with an excellent taste combined with health. Reasonable prices great value for money“

“I was excited to come here based on reviews and environment. It looked so cute inside and I was so happy to try it. I ordered a cold brew, but it was extremely watered down, so that was disappointing. The woman who took my order at the counter was not friendly at all, which really ruined the experience for me. It’s almost like I had no right to be there. I didn’t order any food, but the open faced bagels looked really good, so I gave the food 5 stars as a benefit of the doubt.
But I’m not sure I’ll come back based on the sour mood of the cashier.“

“Omelete sandwich and beet salad were delicious. Berry lemonade was refreshing. Pastries are divine.“

“Hi Bakery is a true gem in LA—a bakery and coffee spot that turns pastries into edible art. I’m so grateful for places like this that honor ancient fermentation methods with the absolute best, time-honored ingredients, including ancient grains that are stone ground and far more expensive than the commercial or conventional flour used by 99% of other bakeries. They could easily opt for the cheap stuff, but instead, they choose these premium ingredients to keep us healthy. Every bite feels nourishing and light; you walk away feeling energized and good, never groggy, bloated, or overly full. For the gluten-free people (by preference, not allergic/celiac folks), give this a chance—you’ll be so happy to have real pastries again! It’s a testament to the passion and care of the people behind it. There’s simply no other spot like Hi Bakery; thank you for existing!“

“Was almost lost when trying to find the outlet since it's located in a plaza that might not be visible if you're by the road side. Worry not about parking at the plaza since they apparently validated parking (yep! plus point for sure).

The gorgeously designed outlet only served grab and go since there's no seating on the spot. There were some outdoor benches at the center of the plaza though if you just couldn't wait to enjoy the goodies.

They offered bunch of sweets from Canele, Madeleine, Financier, Cookies, Cheesecake, and more; all of which did come in multiple flavors. So yeah, be prepared to be indecisive in front of the showcase. They were super helpful though in assisting you making your choices by recommending the favorite ones. It was nice that the price was decent enough for LA standard, so you could definitely opt for more than one or a couple.

For my initial visit, I started with the Ube Financier, which was kept in the chiller, maybe due to the cream on top. It came in spongy yet not too airy texture with luscious ube cream topping. It was decent, but not really my top choice. My second was their Earl Grey Milk Chocolate Tigre, which was basically buttery cake kinda similar to financier IMO, with milk chocolate ganache at the center. I definitely loved this more than the financier, especially the combo of earl grey and milk chocolate which to my surprise was awesome and helped balancing the taste to be not overly sweet. Another one I tried was their thick salted chocolate chip cookies, which decadently had crispy edge though I wish being more gooey inside as it's tad dry. Nonetheless, flavor wise I felt like classic chocolate chip with a sprinkle of sea salt indeed never failed. The creme de la creme, however, was certainly their canele which I was beyond thrilled to finally find in LA. I had my favorite one in London which I thought unbeatable, and it's impressive that LA now had something comparable to satisfy the craving without having to fly over 5K miles away. It flawlessly had that crispy coating, moist center, and just the right sweetness level. I surely made the right choice going with matcha as Brown Bag definitely elevated the overall taste with this matcha flavor and that matcha cream top. It was no brainer that their canele is NEVER TO BE MISSED if you ever paid Brown Bag a visit.“

I Hate Cake—But This One Changed My Mind

I’ve spent years dodging birthday slices, declining dessert menus, and side-eyeing frosting like it owed me money. Not even as a kid did I like cake. Cake and I? Not friends. Everything i got to try was great, but then came this ube and coconut cake and OMG!!!!

It didn’t just taste good—it rewrote my dessert beliefs. Moist without being mushy, sweet without the sugar assault, and layered like a symphony. The texture? A velvet rebellion. The flavor? A sermon in indulgence. I didn’t just eat it—Im forever converted. Thank you!!“

“Angel Maid Bakery is an absolute gem in Los Angeles! It's the perfect spot for anyone looking for stunning, high-quality sweets that won't empty their wallet.
The display cases are always a sight to behold—each cake and pastry is so beautifully decorated, you almost feel bad cutting into it. But your regret will vanish with the first bite! The baked goods are renowned for being light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming.

The selection is fantastic, offering a huge variety from their legendary strawberry shortcake and airy chiffon cakes to delectable cream puffs and individual pastries. Best of all, they consistently offer these top-notch treats at truly cheap prices for LA, making it my go-to for all occasions.“

“I had ordered a 12 slice carrort cake with butter cream frosting for my boyfriend's birthday. It was a hit! Everyone loved the flavor and spices. It was a very dense and moist cake as well. Service was fast and friendly. I would definitely recommend this bakery. I am very happy and very satisfied!“

“HOLEY CRAP these are incredible donuts. Who knew the Hawaiian superfood taro could be so delicious? I will most definitely be coming back here for more, even their basic donut offering, the “hot single” is to die for. All donuts are fresh made to order, highly recommend eating them hot. The flavors are orgasmic.“

“Everything I ever had from Vienna Pastry is beyond delicious. The staff is wonderful. My favorite cookie in the entire world is made by this fabulous bakery. I live in PA and I never make a trip to CA without several stops at Vienna Pastry. The owner, Jaleh Rahban, is one of the kindest ladies I have ever met. I recommend this shop to everyone. Jane Dornsife“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“Quality food, service and relaxed environment. Totally understated as the staff assist where needed with a minimum of fuss as we enjoyed the experience.“

“Highly reccomend! My husband and I went to a dinner party and between the four of us we have all the allergies. This bakery was a wonderful surprise! My guests were so impressed! The “cream filled” Hostess cupcake dupe was a huge hit! Cinnamon crumb coffee cake, and pumpkin spiced donuts were also phenomenal!“

“amazing mochi!!! don't forget to check out their seasonal flavor“

“My first Crème Brûlée doughnut was in Seoul Dunkin. I was not sure I'd ever taste one in US. Visiting from Chicago, I had to come here. I was happy to taste my fav doughnut again.
Small Korean bakery, delicious bakery items. I ordered classic and matcha Crème Brûlée. Wow.
Located inside Rodeo plaza!
Cute places to sit.“

“My favorite cake bakery . The bread is soft and moist not to sweet . The cream outside the case is also a good sweet level I like the strawberries and banana vanilla cake is my go to for any bday celebration in my house we all like this cakes .“

“I went to LA from Northern México last week, and this petit and magnifique place, was the best place I ever been in a while in LA, simply delicious, and perfect. I hope to go back soon.“

“Everything from the moment you arrive at the corner of Gardena Avenue and Vermont Avenue in the City of Gardena I felt I was back home. Their authentic Ecuadorian taste on all their plates, oh my God it is second to none. Congratulations DulcisFama LLC. I will be back with my friends from Latinos Unidos San Diego this weekend.“

“Family owned, amazing history, delicious borek. My favorite is the spicy cheese—it’s not really spicy but flavorful!“

“Yummy, delicious, flavorful cookies, and friendly staff. We stood in line outside as they were super busy, but so worth it!“

“The workers are really nice, but this place is so overpriced and they charge for everything. If you get a bagel with cream cheese, they barely add any cream cheese and they charge you for extra. The coffee is small and it's at least $6. The bread is very good.“

“I have been to the 2 Little Tokyo locations and this one is definitely the winner! there’s a huge variety of pastries and things to eat for a quick bite (you might probably have to eat it standing or elsewhere during the weekends since it gets pretty packed and there’s just 3 tables!) but the steamed buns were good!, the matcha mochi wasn’t too sweet so it was perfect, the almond croissant was fine but their specialty is definitely on other pastries! will definitely come back again to try more stuff.“

“They made me the perfect cake I love my taste and quality of cake. Our family has been fans for years. Highly recommended“

“I love to eat here everything very rich and clean 😋 👌“

“I love the ice cream and desserts at this shop.“

“Love Roji Bakery! Great, friendly service and the fruit sandos are the best! This was one of my favorite things about my LA trip!❤️❤️❤️“

“Take out only. A very popular spot. There is always going to be at least a person or two in front of you. They have a wide variety of Chinese pastries, both sweet and savory. Less crowded on weekdays than the weekend. I'd say, go whenever you can“

“My family and I have been eating birthday cakes from the Phoenix Bakery since I can remember. My personal favorite is the strawberry cake of course. I stopped by today and got this, can't remember the name though. So get here ASAP and get yourself some!. Highly recommended!.“

“nice people, nice baked goods, good coffee, what else? just go see by yourself you'll like it:)“

“excellent bakery.......customer service. delicious treats. #miz_pound_cake“

“A local person recommended it, specifically the cardamom bun. I was so fortunate to get the last one and it was totally worth the hour drive! Definitely hoping I get the opportunity to come back. That breakfast burrito was also the best one I have EVER had!
I also ordered the matcha and got it with almond milk. Didn't ask for sweetener, and I don't think it comes with any which I think is great! Too many places have sugar already in the mix. Next time I want to try the orange cardamom coffee!“

“She does a beautiful job, the cake tastes amazing, and her customer service is fantastic!! Sonia did wedding cakes for my sister and everyone loved it!“

“The BEST. What else do you need to know? Try it for yourself.“

“These cookies are amazing! I’ve sent them to everyone I know.“

“This place is small inside so it's when there's a lot of people it's hard to get to the sweet bread. There is a pushy guy inside selling carnitas he almost shoves the meat down your throat too pushy. Bread is good and very good price their bags rip easily so take your own.“

“Really amazing and very good food. I was a table of one and was able to sit down within 15 minutes compared to usual hour long wait.

I got the HK style french toast, very sweet and more of a dessert but it was amazing nonetheless. Second item i got was the cold sesame noodle (no chicken) and i’ve never had this amazing dish before and it was life changingly good.

Funny story but they threw away my food while i was in the bathroom for two minutes but they apologized and gave me a free meal to go and pastry. I didn’t care that much but happy they fixed an error!

Will come back again def“

“Recently, I visited this store on August 27th while I was in California. The store crew and owner were very friendly and had good customer service. The food and drinks were awesome, no doubt about it. The environment was clean, and I really enjoyed my experience. I hope to visit again in the future, inshallah.“

“This places is absolutely good I love the tortas, the size is huge for the price, totally worth it. They have tamales too. I had had oat with milk and rice with milk, I didn't know they also have strawberry hot drink is like champurrado is so good,there is coffee as well. They have a huge variety of bread, dessert, cold drinks.“

“Amazing place!! Do yourself a favor and go! Make it“

“I had a last minute need for a hostess gift for a brunch I was attending, I placed the order an Saturday for Sunday and the amazing cookies were delivered Sunday mid-morning. My friends who are also client absolutely loved the gift. This is a wonderful gift for any occasion“

“Tartine Silver Lake is a gem! The space is open and inviting, with a great neighborhood vibe. I grabbed a morning pastry and a coffee for pickup, and everything was ready fast and tasted incredible. The croissant was buttery and flaky—definitely one of the best in LA. The coffee was rich and smooth. Staff were friendly and upbeat, even with a line forming. Perfect spot to grab something quick or hang out for a bit. Can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu!“

“The best. Done and done. They go that extra mile when you need it most.“

“Exactly what you'd expect from a Marie Callendars diner. Had the chicken pot pie and it was flaky, though a bit watery. The salad and pie were quite tasty when paired with the pot pie. Could become a regular brunch spot as it appeared already to be for many there.“

“Best kosher bakery!!! Variety of cakes, tarts, best sourdough and multigrain bread! They have gluten free items per request and always happy to accommodate!“
