50 Best Bakeries near Signal Hill

“I've eaten a lot of donuts, but never any better than at Foster's. The maple and chocolate bars are especially good. I always get a wide variety and every item is delicious. The service is great and the prices are unbeatable!“

“We chose to have Rossmoor Pastries make our wedding cake and it was the perfect choice! At the cake tasting, the staff were so kind, helpful, and easy to work with and the cake was just so delicious that it was an easy choice to pick them. Communicating our vision through email was easy and they were so accommodating after we changed our design a few times. The day of, when the cake was delivered, I was immediately impressed with how they brought our vision to life! Our guests complimented on how the blueberry filling was a yummy, unique choice. I would definitely recommend working with them!“

“While Porto’s is well-known, the Downey location feels a little less crowded than others. The guava cheese pastry is always a winner—flaky, buttery, and sweet. I tried their Cuban sandwich for lunch, and it was huge and satisfying. The lines move quickly thanks to the efficient staff. Definitely worth the drive for affordable, delicious baked goods“

“This is the best bakery in town hands down no cap. While other bakeries overload their cookies with sugar and unesessary distractions, Foodology gets it right with an assortment of treats for everyone. I love the small cookie cubes as they're perfect for sharing or for the kids if you dont want to give them a huge portion.“

“Love the people and food sold here are unsurpassed. When they opened there was a sign that explained the pricing reflected and living wage and that the tip was built in to the menu prices. (Most expensive spot for a cap and munchie) then one day a tip line appeared at check out. What?!? I thought it was part of the high price?? Needless to say not tipping puts me in an awkward situation - If I don’t tip is it because I don’t appreciate their cheerful competence? If I add it in now I’m at $16 for a coffee and roll…. I just go someplace else farther but also good (price/budget issues) thanks for letting me vent“

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

“recommended to me — I wasn’t disappointed. There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but it moved quickly and the staff were helpful, even with all the hustle. The ordering process was super easy, and the space felt clean and welcoming.

The cookies themselves? Genuinely excellent. Big, warm, and packed with flavour — definitely lived up to the hype. I tried a couple of the weekly specials and would’ve gone back again if I’d had more time in Downey.

Nice stop if you’re travelling and want something sweet (or very American!). Great location too — easy to find and plenty of parking nearby, but we walked as hoteled in the local area“

“Love it miss it. When I lived around the corner I would go all the time. Everything they have is good. No matter what you get you can’t go wrong. The service is friendly. Make sure you bring cash. You’ll want to go back again and again. And as a bonus you also get to meet some of the people there in the neighborhood as well as some of the people you already know. I’ve been away from the area for several years now, but I’ve still managed to drop in every now and again.“

“Open one in las Vegas. Before San Diego.“

“Crumbl Cookies is dessert happiness in a pink box.

The weekly rotating flavors keep things exciting, but even their classic chocolate chip is everything you want in a cookie—gooey center, crispy edges, and just the right amount of chocolate.

The shop is clean and bright, and the staff is always friendly and quick.

You can’t help but smile walking out with that iconic pink box.

Perfect for a sweet pick‑me‑up or sharing (if you’re generous enough to share!).“

“BEST wagashi in the West Coast indeed!

I waited to try the other wagashi place we found in the Sacramento area before reviewing this place and therefore we conclude, they have the best mochis!

Staff is super friendly and kind 😭 would really love to go here again if ever we are down in SoCal!“

“The best bread ever. I always get the filled ones they sell at the counter. $4.50 for 4 large rolls. They vary the fillings from strawberry, cream cheese, nutella, guava. All of them are excellent. This is my go-to place when I want to treat myself.“

“They BEST Bread around Been coming since I was a little girl 55 yrs and thank you for always giving me a calendar“

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

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

“My experience was at their event food truck. I had their regular churros and it was absolutely delicious! So fresh with the perfect crunch! And, the customer service was phenomenal! I saw others ordering different items and honestly, everything looked so good. Will definitely have to visit their storefront.“

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

“Came here for Brioche with ricotta, honey, and pistachio. Got two croissants which were Strawberry & cream and Bacon & onion for togo. For Brioche I requested for honey on the side because I prefer to adjust the sweetness by myself and it was perfectly scrumptious. Millions out of ten! Brioche itself was soft, buttery, and tasty so it complimented very well with ricotta and honey plus a bit crunchy from pistachio. Oh one bite and I was blown away. My taste buds were dancing happily. Let’s talk about croissants. Normally, I tend to like savory croissants more than sweet croissants. However, after I tried both of them, strawberry and cream is the winner. I really like the filling. I’m not sure if it’s mascarpone or something else that went really well with strawberry jam. It’s so freaking good! Bacon and onion croissant was not bad at all but as I stated earlier, strawberry & cream is the winner for me.“

“Senorita breads seem smaller than before, but still worth the drive. Was a little disappointed that they only had a 4pack of Ensemada breads for sale 10bucks. I was only looking to buy one for the ride back home. So I added another 5 Senortias to my 30 pack order. Prices have increased over the past year... again still worthy of the drive. I'm sure the staff at Longden Elementary will love them. 3 left for me, the rest will go to school.“

“As you can see we’ve been come here for a very long time! We love it! 💙🧁💗“

“donuts are always Fresh n good“

“Good bagels at this place“

“Best bread for sure !!! You choose the bread yourself no one picks it for you as I read in the prior comment 🙄. It’s hard to find parking because of how many people come to this place but customer service is great so you don’t wait for long parking space will be available soon.Definitely recommend this place you won’t regret it !!“

“I was a lucky winner and won a foursie of 2 Churro and 2 Strawberry Chocolate cupcakes. They are absolutely heavenly. Such a nice little spot, clean and welcoming staff. Next, their lemon cake with strawberry Chantilly cream frosting.“

“This was my first time coming to this bakery. What originally made me come was that they were open till 8pm. I ordered the cake on Wednesday and it was ready for me on Friday. Keep in mind they are CASH ONLY! They do require a deposit which was fine.The cake was moist and not overly sweet. Everyone at our party said how delicious the cake was. They did exactly what my child wanted ( soccer and Pokemon) for his birthday cake. He was very happy! I will definitely be ordering again!“

“Great bakery! Good prices, very clean. Goods are creative too!“

“Try to get something new every time and always always delicious and no regrets“

“I absolutely love this bakery! The pastries are fresh and delicious, and the coffee is smooth and flavorful. The staff is incredibly friendly, making it feel so warm and welcoming. It has such a cozy, homey vibe that makes you want to come back. Plus, the prices are very affordable, which is a huge bonus. Highly recommend!“

“We are both vegan and gluten-free so twice baked Bakery really attends to our needs and our taste buds. We are so thankful for their creativity and openness to try new things and this way a lot of us don't have to give up good taste. Do by the items early in the morning because they do go fast“

“I wanted to try this bakery because I was in the area. It is a small bakery just pick up. There is no seating, but the bakery is clean and pleasant. I met the owner who was friendly and helpful. It was so nice to be able to eat a gluten free, low carb dessert. The items we did purchase were fresh, moist and delicious. It was a bit pricey, but when you like baked goods, and can’t have gluten in it and or are diabetic this is a nice solution.“

“Best turon you can get!!!“

“Super clean locale! Great tasting coffee! The bread is delicious! I had their chocolate doughnut which was deliciously soft and just the right amount of sweet, I also tried the mini conchas, the mini croissants and the orejas and they were amazingly good. The prices are so affordable. Definitely a good choice if you visit someone and need to take sweets to share when visiting, everyone will love it for sure. The customer service is friendly and fast. This the place to go for authentic Mexican sweet bread!“

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

“Thank you so much for making such a beautiful birthday cake and delivered to Parkers Lighthouse which the cake was thought beautiful by even staff. Will always come back to the Creative Bakery. Thank you again.“

“Good pan dulce, good burritos, and excellent bolillos and beans. The burritos are good but they only put 2-3 ingredients, for example if you order a carne asada burrito it’s only like carne asada beans and slasa. I can’t remember the exact ingredients, but don’t expect pico de gallo, rice, guacamole, sour cream, etc. Nonetheless, the burritos are tasty. My recommendation is the bolillos and the beans, that’s where this place truly shines. Parking is a bit iffy, it’s located right at the corner of a somewhat busy intersection, so be careful.“

“I recommend that you try everything it is some of the best Vegan food I have tasted. A very great and inviting experience loved it.“

“Follow the sign at Painter Avenue. Park your car at the first parking spot you see. Proceed down the driveway (look left) until you see the door in the fence. Walk to the left of the canopy and walk up the stairs to the "will call" office. Knock on the door until someone answers. They will walk you to the bakery where you can choose and pay for your bread. They take cash and cards. Excellent bread at great prices. I paid $5 for a large loaf of sourdough bread. Would definitely recommend!“

“I just want to thank Miss Poima K for her professionalism and kindness. She is so amazing thank you so much.We were there to order a birthday cake, Miss Poima was such a good listener and made wonderful suggestions.She paid attention to every detail. You’re the best! A million thanks!“

“First time customer yesterday while waiting for my boba beast drink next door. Spent $29 the first time & tried various pastries. After eating two pastries I just had to go back & buy more for my staff at the hospital. Spent another $49 & left with a box full of pastries & the employee even threw in a freebie. Staff is friendly & answered my questions with absolutely outstanding customer service. I'll be returning to try the cakes! 😁🍰🍩 Plenty of parking too !“

“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!“

“Went to pick up a dozen cupcakes to try for our wedding. Great service very helpful“

“Excellent, delicious croissants!“

“They BEST Bread around Been coming since I was a little girl 55 yrs and thank you for always giving me a calendar“

“Try to get something new every time and always always delicious and no regrets“

“My family and I have been frequenting this bakery for over a year and have never been disappointed. The freshness and quality of the pan dulce, in particular, stands out as well as the lovely customer service. The prices are very reasonable.“

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

“My Mom like going to get cake from Bonjour French Pastry because this is a really good place for a good cake. I have some of the cake that Mommy like. The Matcha Cake is good. The Mango Cake is also really good. And I also enjoy having some of the Tiramisu Cake which is good. So I recommend going to this place if you want to get some good cakes. And also the limit to get inside is 6 limit so you have to be patient to get inside to get your cakes.“

“Been a faithful to sweeties. They are the family official birthday cake bakers. Love all their cakes. They are soft and spongy, whipcrean is not too sweet, and they are always available to new designs with us as long as they ask they will try their best to deliver.“
