10 Best Bakeries in Manhattan Beach

“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.“

“These heart cookies with the pink frosting were literally my lifeblood in the early 2000s as a young chimp running around the AMS Elementary School.I came back here for the first time in a minute this weekend, now a full grown orangutan, and can confirm these heart cookies with the pink frosting ($1.50) are still literal crack cocaine. I really don't even mess with frosting on cookies usually, but Becker's is just different.I paired an americano with my cookie, as they now have a Hi-Fi Espresso in here which I think slangs some of the best espresso around. It makes me feel like I'm in Europe idk how else to describe it.I almost bought a shirt, but I have SO many shirts already so I opted against it. However, when I was doing my due diligence for this review a sense of regret shot through my spine like it was an epidural when I saw Beckers has been around since 1942. I had NO idea that Beckers has been around since Joseph Stalin was the Time Magazine Person of the Year. Still so crazy he was Time's Person of the Year.......The business is still in the family after 3 generations (Shoutout to the OG Harry Becker for kicking it off), which really makes me want to go back and buy a shirt. I love places passed from generation to generation. No wonder these heart cookies with the pink frosting still taste exactly the same as they did when I was just a little chimp.Some free game for y'all, if you go to someone's party in Manhattan Beach and they don't have a box of Becker's cookies, they are a big fat phony..... ahaha I'm playin but actually OGs will always have a box of Beckers for a function.I should mention that they also have a deli here that people love, but I've really only ever been here for the cookies. You know why I'm here.As the money and botox continues to move into Manhattan Beach, this is one of the 5 or 6 places left keeping the soul of what I knew as a small local beach town alive.THANK YOU BECKERS NEVER SWITCH UP! I'M COMIN BACK FOR THE SHIRT!IG @jnov_Tiktok @jnov__“

“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!“

“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 !!!..“

“🍋 🎂 is my favorite. Top Notch Customer Service.“

“So good!! Never misses! Became my favorite spot“

“Usually my go to sprinkles since we don’t have one that’s closer. It’s between this one and Newport but more often Manhattan wins. We got here a little early so they weren’t quite open yet. We waited between 10-15 min for them to open. They opened on time or a couple min earlier and the girl who was working was very nice and helpful. I got a box of 6 cupcakes ( red velvet, triple cinnamon x2, chocolate marshmallow, carrot and a strawberry ) along with an order of mini red velvet cookies and a salted caramel chocolate chip cookie in a jar (not sure what they were called) but I won’t be getting the jar dessert again, it was too sweet and just too much. But everything else was good like always.“

“Absolutely found my new favourite breakfast spot in Manhattan Beach. The menu is amazing, the staff couldn't be more welcoming and the breads are some of the best I've ever had... In fact to say the least, this may be my new go-to bakery. I live in Long Beach and it's entirely worth making the trip once a week.“
