50 Best Bakeries near Newport Coast

“I wanted to reach out and let you know how much I enjoyed my recent visit to your bakery. From the moment I walked in, I felt the warmth and charm of the space, and the scent of fresh pastries made it feel like a little slice of heaven and very less sugary. My family always complained about too much sugar in most pastries and cookies. However, now they are so happy to buy pastries and Danish here.
I especially loved the Sour Dough Baguette, and my son became a regular customer for the almond croissant and Turkish coffee. It was truly delicious, and the quality was great. The team was welcoming and attentive, making the experience all the more enjoyable.
Thank you for creating such a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy incredible treats. I'll be looking forward to my next visit!

“the black sesame mochidonut i got was cute and delicious, and the staff were all super nice! the sanitary conditions seem great, and i’ll definitely come back again sometime in the future. i’ll try a different flavor next time to see how it differs!“

“Everything about this bakery is AMAZING! I am so bummed I am just now finding it. They have quite the selection so it was very challenging to choose from. All of the treats I tried were incredible. You can taste the quality of the ingredients but more importantly the love of the craft absolutely comes through. It’s now on my bucket list to try every baked good they offer! The owners are so incredibly sweet and friendly which made the experience that much better. I will definitely be recommending them to my friends and family and would recommend to any sweets lover!“

“Very delicious croffle ???????????????“

“This is one of my favorite bakeries!
The best part is that they offer not only pastries but also savory options like sandwiches and non-sweet baked goods.

You can always grab a slice or even a whole cake here, and they even sell birthday candles, which is a nice touch.

The only downside is that the sign at this location isn’t lit, so at first glance, it might seem like it’s closed.“

“Highly recommended especially in making a customized cake. Thank you Samira for copying everything what my grandson’s wished design. And also the cake was delicious“

“Their pastry was beautiful with quality to match. I tried a savory stuffed croissant and a sweet one. Both were delicious.“

“I love their cookies so muchh!! The workers are amazing and the cookies are always warm and tasty😼😼

Dietary restrictions: I have a peanut/nut allergy and i haven't had an allergic reaction yet, even when they have peanut cookies“

“Almond croissant/ croissants in general shrunk 25-30% in size despite the price hike when Tustin branch initially opened.
Note: ? size was normal when they opened , now it's way smaller than any other bakeries visited? visibly shrunk!“

“Best French pastries and bread anywhere! This place is amazing and the staff and owner are nothing less than exceptional.“

“They were very responsive to emails. I first filled out web inquiry and got a reply on the same day. They were booked for tasting appointment very fast so make sure you contact them early as they only have appointments available during the week Tuesday, Thursday and Fridays between 1pm and 6pm. Saturdays from 9am-4pm. The tasting appointment was an hour long and it's FREE!!! Some other places I looked at will charge you for tasting and even though the tasting charge might be deducted from final order, it made me feel much better when there was no cost to start with as wedding was already expensive. The place was a little bit hard to find since it was office-like looking from outside and I thought it was bakery-like. They have parking lot. My husband and I tried so many different favors of cake and they were so delicious. We had a hard time deciding which ones to get because we had more than three favorite. During the appointment, they also showed you what style of cake they offered and its pricing. We went with the basic so there was no add-on cost, but they can custom-make your order if you show them pictures of what you want with additional cost (and trust me the price is fair). We ended up ordering a 3-tier ice in white buttercream cake with 12" white with mango, 9" almond with cappuccino & chocolate mousse, and 6" mocha chip with rosy mauve ribbon around tiers for 100 guests for my wedding. They emailed us a week before the wedding to confirm there was no changes and the order was correct. The cake was delivered on time and was decorated with fresh flowers my florist provided on site by the delivery staff. (If you have cake topper, you can either drop it off to the shop or have it installed on site by delivery staff. Either way, you need to let them know in advance so they can make sure your cake is structurally stable for the cake topper weight.) My wedding cake looked pretty and it tasted good. I received lots of compliment from the guests. On the side note, they would charge you more if you use American Express credit card. And you only need to pay deposit on the site but they don't have online system for you to pay the remaining online. Since we didn't have cake topper to drop off and did not want to make another trip just to pay the balance, we paid it in full the same day of tasting. This would be two suggestions for improvement, but they still deserve a 5-star for their service, the quality (taste/look), and the friendly price. Ohh and did I mention that you do receive a complimentary one year anniversary cake? That's for sure a big PLUS since my husband and I were too busy to have our own wedding cake at our wedding. We are very looking forward to our one year anniversary! All you need to do is to contact them 3 weeks prior to your one year anniversary to place the order. Give them the date of your wedding and the name the order is under and they will pull up your file and place the order. Yup it's 3 weeks, not 2 weeks. They are definitely getting busier and that's how good they are! If you are still looking for wedding cake or cake for any event, this is where I would recommend.“

“Thank you for designing my Mom’s beautiful cake for her 100th birthday. It was delicious and the cookies were a hit! Especially the snickerdoodles!“

“The baked goods here are so delicious and the woman behind the treats was so lovely herself! I found this place after an appointment in the area, got four different macarons and one of the honey cakes. Wow. Insane, everything. The strawberry raspberry and the Dubai flavor macarons were far and away my favorite, but everything was insane. The honey cake was amazing too, very different from anything I’ve had yet but loved it. Will be back again.“

“I knew this merchant thanks to the “too good to go” application. This craftsman is not really close to where I live but given the extremely positive comments whether on Google or on the application I said to myself that it might be a good idea to go there.
The shop doesn't look like much from the outside and the decoration is very simplistic once inside.
Once you have tasted their products you will understand why everyone loves them. The donuts are fresh and tasty just as much as the other pastries available for purchase. Even at the end of the day just before closing, they are still just as good.
A little smile would have been a plus, but that’s not what we were there for.
I will definitely come back to try their cookies.
I highly recommend it, because on top of that, the prices are really affordable.

Vegetarian options: There are products available for vegetarians

Dietary restrictions: Ask the staff

Parking: Parking right in front of the store, there is often space

Kid-friendliness: Yes

“I discovered this place on TikTok and decided to give it a try. I'm thrilled that I did, as the cookies were absolutely delicious! They exceeded my expectations with their flavor and quality. It’s definitely a spot I’d recommend to others. I’m glad I took the chance to try it out.“

“As soon as I walked in. My eyes lit up. They have Paris Brest!! A french pastry made of choux pastry airy, light, soft in the middle, and a soft layer of crunch the outside. Delicately sweet and rich filling of praline cream. It's been over 10 years since I've had one. Finally, I found a French bakery that makes it. They have a good variety of other French pastry. Here's a list of what I got.Cream puffs: very light and not too sweet.Éclairs: same a cream Cream puffsMini frut tart: very cute and perfect for 1 person.Vietnamese ice coffee: excellent flavor. I love espresso, but my husband likes medium roast. This meets us halfway. Not overly sweeten and not too rich. It's just perfect.Paté chaud: it's the best I've had. I haven't had any good pate chaud in the last 15 years. I could tell they made everything fresh with good quality ingredients. Even my husband enjoyed the pate chaud. I regret only getting 2. I could eat 20 if more.My husband said, "we're definitely coming back" if we were local. Overall everything was yummy. The highlight of them all are. Pate chaud, vietnamese coffee and Paris brest. If we were local. I would come here daily for their vietnamese coffee and Paté chaud. And of course, for their Paris Brest.I believe they are the owners. They are very nice. We ordered a good amount of pastries. They asked us where were are going. We told them we are picking up food for the temple. He didn't charge us for the 2 Paté chaud. This speaks loud to me and my husband. They are passionate and generous. We will be supporting them when we come down to visit my sister. We will definitely tell our friends and family about them.“

“Oh Em Gee!!!! This is thee cutest little place, the ordering system is super efficient, there were a ton of customers placing orders with no wait. The GIANORMOUS, warm cookies come out quickly and the boxes are so freaking cute. Definitely worth a stop, be sure to bring your sweet tooth ??“

“Great ambiance, pets are welcome, super staff & eats! Lots of compliments check them out!“

“Hello everyone.
Welcome to jacks bakery. This is an Arminian and Mediterranean style food with bakers. Today I am trying the spicy cheese boreg, and what a delight it was. This place serves appetizers, sandwiches plates, baked goods, and assortment of hot drinks and yes, vegetarian options. Prices are reasonable and there is seating inside. Parking outside is limited. They accept cash and card. Thank you for reading my post. Please follow me on Google Street maps and check out the places I visit.“

“We loved this place so much we already have made plans to go back. The food was delicious and portion size is great. Friendly crew, helpful and great service. You can also purchase frozen pies to take home which we will be doing“

“Omg, this place is HEAVEN. Must try their famous strawberry cream pastries. They come in packs already to go, or you can some on the side for yourself. They have amazing sandwhiches like the turkey avocado sandwich. They have katsu, sushi, and other sorts of pastries. Cream pan also has different fresh baked breads. You can also call in advance to put in an order.“

“We chose Penelope's Perfection to make something really special for my Mom's 100th Birthday party. The cake was spectacular. Everything & more we could have asked for. Highly recommended!“

“A cute bakery, it has a clean and modern feeling. I got egg tarts and a couple of cookies. The egg tarts are very crispy buttery and the center egg custard is sweet and fragrant (vanilla?). I prefer the triple chocolate chip cookies over the sea salt chocolate ones. I know some people like the uncooked (or undercooked) center, but .. not a fan. I feel the sea salt chocolate chip cookies need to have more chocolate chips as the cookie dough is quite dough-y. I will try the coffee next time, overall, it's a nice experience?“

“Without a doubt… The Flaky Apple Pie Co is the best find ever!! I have ordered all of the different pies and each one is more delicious than the last !! The most wonderful pie was the last one I bought…. The most unbelievable FRESH PEACH Pie!!! Best I have ever had!!! Thank you Brooke and her team! We will be friends forever!❤️“

“We were visiting Laguna over the weekend and stopped by Rye Goods on Saturday, and then couldn't not come back again Sunday. All of their offerings are SO GOOD. I had the morning sugar latte, iced, with oatmilk, and it was one of the easiest lattes to drink. It wasn't overly sugary, as the name might indicate, and the oatmilk didn't have a strong presence like some brands tend to do. Super easy drinker. We also had a burrito, avocado toast, and a handful of pastries. The avo toast was hearty and the bread was super soft and meant for this type of meal. We came around 8-9am both days and didn't have a problem with lines, seating or service. Those working were super personable and helpful. I wish I lived here so I could go to this place more often.“

“this place is AMAZING!! the staff there are very friendly. they are very quick & their food & drinks are amazing. the only thing i would have to complain about are the times. there are some days when the coffee shop closes too early. besides the hours, this place is highly recommend.“

“Incredible experience at this spot! The food was outstanding—especially the pork curry chop, which was tender, flavorful, and just right. The strawberry dessert was another highlight, not too sweet and super fresh. I couldn’t resist getting a box of six and, well, they didn’t make it past dinner! The staff were incredibly friendly, making the atmosphere even more inviting. The only downside was the wait time, which was a bit longer than expected, but honestly, with food and service this good, it was well worth it. Can’t wait to come back and enjoy another meal soon!“

“One of a kind!!! Not only are the designs impeccable, but the taste is out of this world. Shadi’s Sweets Studio can produce any cake you ask for. I have placed several orders and I have been beyond impressed every single time by the professionalism and high quality service. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious variety of cookies and so many milks to choose from. pure heaven“

“We have been loyal customers of Krista & Monster Muffins for years! She rotates the selection every month & I look forward to see what is new. There are some that are available all the time, Blueberry (my hubby’s favorite), the Cinnamon Roll muffin (my favorite) and delicious cookies too!!!“

“Four paws up! Love me their Thanksgiving dinner.“

“Holy cow this place is great! Wide variety of drinks, donuts/other sweet treats, and delicious food. Everything is exceptionally affordable, a donut and two coffees for under $7!! Are you FREAKING KIDDING ME PEOPLE??. Definitely recommend the banana mocha blended coffee and the old fashioned donut!“

“Exquisite bread seriously delicious, my go-to bakery bread always tastes freshly made and warm. They have a great variety/selection of different types of bread and desserts. Saw a review saying that it had “too much sugar” and honestly what did you expect it’s a pastry it isn’t going to taste spicy or overly salty. Anyways this place is great I recommend it every time!“

“Love these cookies“

“Wonderful place in Laguna Hills. The “Taste of Persia” truly deserves it’s name because when you visit the store with the quality of their service not only you feel like you have stepped in the heart of Iran but also when you taste their bread you would completely agree with me that they absolutely have the best bread quality in Orange County. Amazing people, wonderful taste, phenomenal vibes! Thanks “Taste of Persia Bakery” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for being so great ❤️“

“The Balboa Peninsula is a neighborhood of the city of Newport Beach, Orange County, California.This community has been the home to, Lauren Bacall, James Cagney, Joey Bishop, Humphrey Bogart, George Burns, Buddy Ebsen, Shirley Temple and John Wayne. Some very famous people I would say. In the heart of Balboa, is Dads Donut & Bakery Shop. It stands as a beacon of delight, drawing both locals and tourists alike with its irresistible charm and delectable treats.
What truly sets Dad's Donut & Bakery Shop apart, is its commitment to quality. In the County of Orange in southern California, this place is known for it famous Balboa Bar. Dad's doesnt have the only "Balboa Bar", but its really GOOD. What is a Balboa Bar. This is my explanation. An ice cream bar dipped in chocolate then coated with many choices of toppings. Simple, Maybe. But its an Orange county tradition. Its like Champagne can only be botlled in the champagne region of France.

Whether you're a lifelong fan or a first-time visitor, Dad's is more than just an ice cream shop—it's a destination, a tradition, and a cherished part of Balboa. With each visit, you're not just treating yourself to a scoop of ice cream—you're creating memories that will last a lifetime. P.S. Its not the only shop that has a Balboa bar. Come to Balboa and try them all.

Parking: tough to find any parking

Kid-friendliness: any age loves Ice Cream and donuts“

“The strawberry shortcake cake was fantastic. It was beautiful and delicious. I will definitely order again.“

“The coffee here is surprisingly better than anything else. I think they use Lavazza coffee beans, but latte is fine too. The latte's nutty flavor seems a little uneven, but I think it's much better than Starbucks because it's easy to drink.“

“Tous Les Jours is a unique Korean caffee/pastry shop. The coffee is so delicious and when complemented by dessert or bakery, it's out of this world. The service is excellent and the adjacent Korean food courtb is great. It's worth as visit along with it's adjacent H Market. Other than one nice lady working there, the rest of the team is rigid and too formal.

Dietary restrictions: The coffee is really good“

“I knew this place was good because I went to the first one they had at Arcadia mall and it was the best cheesecake i've ever tasted. I decided to get the flavored ones, Matcha and Ube and both were so yummy, a great dessert to bring to a party and it is already made as soon as you get to the store. I would definitely recommend getting these flavors and I want to get the Oreo one next time too. They even offer a stamp card. So light and fluffy, I can actually eat it all to myself.“

“I went here and got buns. Wasn't exactly sure what I was going to be getting, but so long as you are just wanting quick, easy to eat food this place is great. I ordered there different buns and a cinimman dessert. The buns where, egg ham and cheese, BBQ brisket and pizza. All where tasty, but nothing that was amazing. The bun was very basic in flavor but was definitely strong enough to hold in the contents and not create a mess. The hilarious part is that I just made some thing like this at home 3 days ago :)“

“I recently had the pleasure of meeting with Maddy at Eller, and I couldn't be more impressed with her professionalism and dedication. Maddy consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that every task is completed efficiently and to the highest standard. Her positive attitude and willingness to help out wherever needed. I highly recommend Maddy for any role; she truly embodies the qualities of an exceptional worker.“

“I can't believe I didn't think to leave a review sooner! This is my husband and my FAVORITE cheesecake of all time. I've been getting an annual cheesecake for his birthday each year since 2019 :) We've tried a few topping styles but the fruit is our absolute favorite. And it's massive! The box is almost 1 square foot ? Feels like it weighs at least 10 lbs.

Rich, creamy and delicious! Eric and his team are super friendly and I've never had an issue with my order. Can't wait to enjoy this with my hubby tonight ??“

“Balboa Island Baking Company is a delightful find! The service is amazing—friendly and welcoming staff make every visit a pleasure. The baked goods are truly exceptional, with a wide variety of treats that are always fresh and bursting with flavor. From delicious pastries to mouthwatering cakes, each item is a testament to their craftsmanship. Whether you’re grabbing a quick snack or planning a special order, you won’t be disappointed. This bakery is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth!“

“I ordered two cream pans and let me say it doesn't disappoint. So if you love creamy custard filling folded into buttery bread that is made with TLC, then Hamada-Ya Bakery is the place to go. Now let's say you eat one and save the other for the next day, I suggest refrigerating it. Then when you want to eat it take it out of the fridge and let it sit until it's room temperature. Your taste buds are going to be very happy you did. ?“

“We searched high & low for a bakery to cater our wedding in Laguna Beach. Unfortunately we didn’t hear back from other companies, even those who were recommended to us through our venue. But, from the initial phone conversation with the staff at The B8kery , to our wedding day, the service, communication, & follow through have been amazing!! Lia & Madison helped us customize a Dessert Bar and wedding cake that fit our personal taste and wedding aesthetic. We received lots of compliments on all of the pastries from our guests! The cookies, brownies, strawberries, & red velvet cake were some of the best we’ve ever had!!! The morning of the wedding, my Dad & Husband bought a cinnamon roll & muffins for breakfast too, and said they were the best they’ve ever had! We recommend The B8kery 1000/1000 and can’t wait to come back to town and stock up on all of their goodies!!!“

“Memorable desserts! Specifically whoopee pie and carrot cake got great reviews and we haven’t touched the cupcakes yet!!❤️❤️“

“WORTH HAVING: -sandwiches (flavorful and great bread) -croissants (not amazing, but decent for the price) -chocolate truffles (so rich and yummy) -baguettes (tasty and served warm) -coffee (decent cup of joe and piping hot)“
