50 Best Bakeries near San Pedro

“If you are in need of great Italian cookies this is the place for you. They also have cakes and you can order one as well. They have amazing pastries. There is nothing that is not good there. It is all great.

The place is older, but ever so clean and nice. You will love it.

The service is very friendly and they just don't sell stale cookies. It is hard to find great Italian cookies, and yes, we will drive to San Pedro to get them. We also love their cakes, they are not as sweet as some, they are perfect.

You will want to buy a bunch of pastries and take them home. I have found that they do not freeze well, so just eat them.

We also love their Parker House rolls. You will too.

They even have sandwiches and next time I will try one.

San Pedro is fun. If you have never been go.“

“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.“

“Delicious and old fashioned bakery hard to find anymore!“

“Love the freshness of everything at this bakery. The homemade tortillas are delicious, too“

“So much to say… but ultimately, Colossus in Long Beach is WONDERFUL!! The BEST BLT I’ve ever had. Because they use high quality ingredients! Their Soft-Scrambled Egg Toast is divine. And everything is beautifully fresh. I love their country bread, baguettes, olive cumin bread, dinner rolls… but I have so much more to try Their pastries are scrumptious: Pecan Sticky Bun, Cardamom Bun, Kouign Amann, Financier, Marzipan Croissant, Sea Salt Brownie, OG Chocolate Chip Cookie. It’s all amazing and I’ve brought a number of friends to show off this incredible Belmont Shore Bakery. On Friday nights Colossus serves pizza into the night. Again, high-quality ingredients make their pizzas delicious. Plus they have interesting and unique combinations. They are tip free because their starting wage is $21/hr. Great customer service. Cute little space with some lovely specialty spice mixes, food items, merch, and wine. Indoor and outdoor seating, and they serve tasty coffees and teas. Colossus feels like a little bit of Europe on 2nd Street.“

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

“Extraordinary bakery on 6th & Ohio! Organic! Vegan! Delicious and a kind staff. Thank you Guadalupe for your guidance.“

“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.“

“I visited Nonna Mercato for dinner and had a cozy and refined dining experience. The restaurant had a warm Italian-style atmosphere with a comfortable setting that felt inviting for a relaxed evening meal.

We ordered fresh pasta, wood-fired pizza, salad, and sparkling drinks. The food arrived hot and beautifully presented. The pasta had rich flavor, the pizza crust was crisp and light, and everything tasted fresh and balanced. Portions felt satisfying without being overly heavy.

The service was attentive and professional. Orders were handled smoothly, and the pacing of the meal felt calm and well-managed.

Overall, Nonna Mercato is a great dinner spot if you want fresh Italian flavors, a cozy ambiance, and a polished casual dining experience.“

“best food in Cali ,love it 😋..Ouaa“

“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“

“I absolutely love your Pastries, the Vanilla Oat Milk was a recommendation from one of the workers and it was a hit!“

“Best cinnamon rolls ever and I loved it!“

“the product is not one to pass up and the owner is a fantastic person.“

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious Beautiful setting too“

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

“Yummy everything is delicious“

“because is delicious and healthy sandwich“

“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!“

“I stopped in for morning coffee everyday visiting, fresh brewed coffee was excellent. You first walk in you can grab a tray with tongs and visit the display cases and pick and choose which items you would like to purchase. They also have pre-made breakfast sandwiches which are a shareable size for a very good price. They also will warm it up for you. Definitely a place to stop by for fresh pastries, cakes and cheesecakes. Also have fresh jams for sale.
Would return for breakfast, coffee and fresh pastries“

“Good bagels at this place“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Susy did an amazing job on my mom’s birthday cake. She was able to create an exact replica of the
reference photo that I gave her. The cake was also so good and moist and everyone at the party loved it. There was a little hiccup on our end where one of the letters got damaged in transport and Susy was able to replace it last minute before the party started. Overall a great experience and I would use her again if I need a cake in Long Beach.“

“I tasted one of Caramel pecan praline cookies, and the soft chewy caramel just hit the spot. These are sinful!“

“This place is always busy. We find seating there at the counter and we do not need to wait for 20 minutes. We love the bean soup? And the apple pie was great.“

“I love the donuts here. They are so fresh all the time everytime. The gentleman that served me was so kind and friendly. The blueberry glazed donut is so delicious and Again very fresh and I've been there lately night and early afternoon times when the donuts shouldn't be so fresh but not at Top Donuts it seems no matter what time of day they are always fresh. If you want a delicious donut come to Top Donuts!“

“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! 💜💜💜💜💜💜👍🏼👍🏼“

“Great small location with delicious pastries. I've had most of them and I can't quite choose a favorite because they are all so good. Give this place a try and visit too. Don't forget to order their fresh brewed coffee as well. Yummmm!“

“The tres leches cake is absolutely delicious—moist, perfectly sweet, and fresh. You can really taste the quality, and the price is very affordable for how good it is. Definitely one of the best spots in Torrance for tres leches cake. Highly recommend!“

“Stop by to get fresh pastries - they also offer hot and ready to eat tamales“

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

“Yummy Cakes Delicious foods“

“A small neighborhood Mexican Panaderia. Very nice people and lovely traditional Pan Dulce. They also have various Breakfast sandwiches, egg with chorizo, potatoes with chorizo well from what I remember. The owner is a loving older lady extremely nice. Makes you feel as if she's your Aguelita.“

“9 out of 10 times, these are the best churros in the South Bay. They do one thing and do it well. They offer caramel and strawberry dipping sauces and are always friendly.“

“Sweet bread is goid especially the chocolate cake! Yummm Tamales are good too just too spicy hot for me. If you like hot food you'll love their tamales!“

“A normal corner donut shop. I decided to try it out. Overall satisfied. Service was great. I ordered half a dozen donuts and got an extra for free ?? Giving it 5 stars because it is what you'd expect and the prices were decent~ Would come back for the donuts. Didn't mind my sausage, egg, and croissant sandwich. The blended mocha was yummy too. I do want to try one of their smoothies next time. Total cost for 1/2 dozen donuts, two blended mochas, and a #7 was about $21 if I'm not mistaken. So yeah, hella worth the price.“

“The pastries and baked goods are delicious, but really, the food is the best. Go for lunch, you will not regret it.“

“Tres leches cake was wonderful! It was layered with real pieces of cut fruit and excellent served cold, even the next day. It had perfect moist texture and attractive frosted sides. We ordered the smallest size cake and it was approximately 20 servings.“

“A W E S O M E ! !Incredible food, I was waiting for my " alambre" and some aks for a torta de asada with pastrami and grilled onions. I was a big torta with a great smell.Love it!! The ice coffee, breakfast burrito.. They have a special menu,Great job Moisés. ?“

“I absolutely love Granny’s donuts! The breakfast sandwiches are incredible, and my vanilla iced coffee is always made with love—you can tell by the first sip. The customer service is outstanding, and I’m always greeted with a beautiful smile.“

“Bossy Bundts reached out to me to share that for the holiday season she'd be using a gift box I designed as her keepsake. In our exchange, I saw all the beautiful sweets and goodies she makes and she was so generous as to send me a cake to try! Even though it came from all the across the US, her bundt cake was so soft, and so moist, and the flavor was just so right, that the cake didn't survive the photo I planned to take of it, because by then it had been eaten lol. From the one cake I tried, which was the coconut one, I am a fan. and I look forward to ordering to try some of the other flavors that other reviewers have recommended. Thank you Bossy Bundts! With love, Bea“
