50 Best Bakeries near Valley Village

“💖 We were just talking about how PERFECT your cupcakes are! The sweetness ratio is absolutely idyllic because the sugar does not overpower the gorgeous flavor. Worth every penny!!! 🧁“

“Jaqki's Cake Creations did an absolutely amazing job on our wedding cake. Jaqki took our vision for a small, simple, and elegant design and brought it to life perfectly. It was stunning to look at and tasted absolutely delicious. Our guests loved it, and working with her was a breeze. Thank you, Jaqki!“

“I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SPOT.
It’s close by and everything is always fresh, no matter the time or day. The 🥐sandwiches are so delicious. The donuts are the best donuts I’ve had in years. I’m a foodie! I’ve tried so many spots but I’ve never been hooked like this little joint.
I’m absolutely obsessed the drink options they have! The coffee and TT is absolutely amazing, to die for. I’ll never stop coming here!! ❤️“

“If you are looking for an authentic, kosher, Jewish bakery, it does not get any better than Schwartz Bakery. I always thought that Portos bakery was number 1, well that spot is now taken by Schwartz Bakery. Their blintzes with cheese are amazing. I was shocked to know that the cheese is actually dairy free (parve), but it has a full taste of actual cheese, not an easy task if you ever bought dairy-free products. The assortment is great as well, you can find anything from non sweet potato knishes to savory little chocolate rolls and poppy seed roulettes. The little challas are very delicious too. I honestly can say that out of dozens of items that I had tried there, I have not found one that was not tasty.“

“Delicious cakes, donuts and cookies!!!“

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

“Milly was very respectful and attended to our needs. She was very quick to attend to my big party of 12 people. 10/10 service.“

“Creative take on traditional pastries and exceptional classics! Love the fun flavors, but a sucker for their classic chocolate croissant. The cookies are also sooo good, you’ll need to take home at least 3. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“Absolutely loved this place! The cinnamon rolls are outstanding — perfectly soft, buttery, and not overly sweet. The scones are excellent as well, and the cookies are honestly some of the best I’ve had in a long time.

What really makes the experience even better is the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind.

If you’re in Santa Monica and enjoy great pastries, this place is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be coming back for those cinnamon rolls!“

“The best vegan baked goods around town! I had the cornbread, almond cookie (gluten free), chocolate chip (gluten free), and Armenian pizza with a mixed tea. So good!“

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

“I was honestly blown away by how good their gluten-free cookies are. As someone who’s gluten-free, it’s rare to find cookies that actually taste like the real thing, soft, flavorful, and not overly dry or crumbly. These were easily the best gluten-free cookies I’ve ever had.“

“Great place for Pastries.“

“Walking into this restaurant was refreshing. It has very calming ambiance. Combination with the great healthy option and tasty food was a cherry on top. Green toast recommendation by Marina was a good option with flavorful Avacado on top did the magic. Couldn't resist shrimp toast and Classic oval tray from the menu. Food tasted really fresh and overall service was very welcoming and positive. Totally recommended for anyone who enjoys healthy food options, breakfast or lunch!“

“Hidden coffee and pastry gem in the Heart of Beverly Hills. Definitely a great date spot 🤫 Do not miss the chance to visit if you are a tourist 😋 For locals try their Salmon Bagel reminds me of New York 🗽
P.S. also they have luxury and bougie cakes 🤪“

“The best cookies you will find in all of Los Angeles. Creative flavors, quality ingredients, and made by the best people around. Highly recommend“

“I needed a little European fix today, so I decided to visit Des Croissants Paris. First of all I just finished devouring 4 pastries that were in incredibly delicious!!! Top ingredients straight from France! But what made my visit an outstanding experience, was how lovely and gracious the staff was including the owner. We chatted about Spain and had one of those moments of community that are so rare in this city. I highly recommend this slice of French heaven in the middle of Culver City“

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

“First of all, let's start out saying that this place is across the street from my house dangerous because you walk into this bakery and the vibe is so Sweet and delicious. The young lady is beautiful on the outside as well as in the inside and her cookies and everything else. Oh my gosh you guys if you like cookies delicious soft just exquisite then this is the place to be also remember, she doesn't take cash which is kind of cool for her. I congratulate you young lady LA deserves to know about you honey.“

“House of Bread is great. They have fresh, made daily bread of all types as well as pastry items. It is all good. They even have vegan items.

The service at House of Bread is just wonderful. The small staff gets the job done and the know what they have and what is the best. They make the most tasty banana bread. You can get it vegan or not. Both are great. I prefer the regular banana bread because I like butter on mine.

The place is super cute, very clean and you will smell bread when you walk in. they have some of the best pastries. They are all great. Their Persian bread is the best.

The place is small so be on the lookout or you will miss it.

We love this more than La Brea Bakery bread and we though we had found our bread when we saw it in stores, but House of Bread is better.“

“Enjoyed our breakfast, very friendly staff, large portions, homemade bread and excellent service!“

“My toddler son and I found Modern Bite one day a few months ago, and we tried a free sample Buzz Lightyear cookie that we just loved so much! We just ordered 3-dozen custom designed cookies for his 4th birthday, and they're adorable and delicious and they rushed our order to make it all possible in time for pre-school. Really great customer service and product. We are quite pleased <3.“

“This bakery is such a dangerous place if you love pastries because everything looks amazing the moment you walk in. There’s a huge variety of baked goods to choose from, and it honestly feels hard to leave with just one thing.

Everything I tried tasted fresh and homemade, with that perfect balance where the pastries feel rich and satisfying without being overly heavy. You can tell they put real care into both the flavor and presentation.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a great place to stop for coffee and something sweet. Definitely one of those spots I’d happily come back to whenever I’m craving good pastries in LA“

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

“The smell of fresh bread 🥖 walking in is so inviting! Even though I choose the self serve kick option they still made the effort to try to help me with my order. Super rare to see that level of attention. Came in just before the crowd . Got the ever croissant sandwich- made to perfection.

The pastry and dessert options definitely worth trying one of each oh yeah, and that I mentioned the prices are super affordable“

“Sweet bakery filled with goodies and Armenian favorites, fresh Barbari, Ajarski (breakfast boat), and Lahmajun (Armenian pizza)! 😁👌“

“First time studying in this gem. Will definitely be returning! Not only do they have great coffee, yummy pastries, good study space, but overall great customer service. Johnny made it easy to navigate the menu and very attentive to ensuring my study experience went well“

“I’ve been coming here for almost five years. Their ham and cheese croissant used to be one of the best in LA with perfectly laminated dough, thick ham, and plenty of cheese. The shell was a bit dense and heavier than other bakeries, but that’s actually why I enjoyed it. It had a unique texture and feel.

Sadly, the quality has declined a lot in recent years. The croissant is now much smaller, dry, and skimpy on fillings. Today it honestly tasted like an airport croissant.

Coffee, Swedish buns, and other food are still great, and the staff are always kind. But the shop often seems understaffed and the dining area is not as clean as before. I still want to support them, but the overall experience no longer feels as special as it once did.“

“The lahmajoun from Sasoun was hands down the best meat pizza I’ve had in Los Angeles. I’ve tried it in many places, but nothing compares to this bakery in Glendale. The tahini cookies were also excellent, and I highly recommend this place.“

“Great local place for breakfast and lunch with tasty baked goods!😄“

“Loved this place AMAZING service with the friendliest staff and the food was delicious reminded me of real home cooking I also had the vegan options Delicious delicious and delicious“

“**A sweet slice of heaven in Santa Monica!** Junior Cookies is an absolute *gem*. I came in for the cookies (which are AMAZING – warm, gooey, and perfectly crisp on the edges), but I stayed for the whole vibe. Their ice cream is ultra creamy with rich, dreamy flavors that pair perfectly with the cookies—highly recommend making your own cookie cream with ice cream with cookies! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee is. It’s bold, smooth, and just what I needed to balance out the sugar rush. Honestly, it’s rare to find a cookie shop where the coffee actually stands out, but Junior Cookies gets it right. Best coffee, best cookies, best matcha, and best ice cream in la! The place is super cute inside, with a cozy neighborhood feel and friendly staff who seem genuinely happy to be there. You can tell everything is made with love. The cookies and recipes are unique. 5 star bakery in LA. If you're in Santa Monica, **don’t miss this spot**. Whether you’re craving dessert, a caffeine fix, or just want to treat yourself, Junior Cookies delivers!“

“1. The donut looked pretty and tasted delicious! I did not feel heavy when eating the cream!
2. The spot has fun casual vibes! It is part of an indoor shopping area!
3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in about 5 mins!
Note: There is a restroom area for customers!

“My family and I have been coming here for years, and they always have the best quality cakes. They always provide great service and my orders are always accurate. We have never had any issue and we always appreciate the friendly and knowledgeable staff.“

“edit: i really love this place. the first time i went to it was magical. if there was a place i could go to for every birthday or celebration it would be this one!! going into the crazy koreatown traffic is worth the journey for this place. the aesthetic is so cozy and i hope many other people enjoy this place. upon entering you smell the sweet aroma of all the pastries

lovely matcha and matcha pastries. the ube pastries are also tasty. kind staff and cute space. there’s plenty of benches outside to sit and eat“

“Finally I felt like hometown! Everything tastes amazing! Real homemade foods! 1000000% recommending!!!“

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED“

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

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

“I am a huge fan of Banana Pudding and this place has it. Magnolia is known to be best, but I beg to differ!! Schatzi's in my opinion is the better choice. The pudding is not just fluffed and whipped, it has actual solid ingredients and the perfect balance of bananas. My new go to!!“

“Friendly service I would recommend to everyone“

“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“

“I recently ordered a picture cake from Red Ribbon Bakeshop's South Vermont Los Angeles location for the second time, and once again, they made my family's birthday celebration extra special. The picture cake is such an amazing touch - beautifully made, delicious, and always a big hit with family and friends. We truly love Red Ribbon products, from the cakes to the pastries, because everything is consistently fresh and flavorful.

A special thank you to Ms. Chello and her staff for their outstanding customer service. Everyone was very accommodating, friendly, and attentive, making sure everything went smoothly with my order. Their kindness and professionalism truly made my experience even better, and it's one of the reasons I happily keep coming back.

The ambiance of the store is welcoming, clean, and cheerful, making every visit pleasant. You can really feel the warmth and hospitality the moment you walk in.

I am a loyal customer and will always consider Red Ribbon for my family's celebrations. Thank you to Ms. Chello and the entire team for always helping make our special occasions even more memorable!“

“I recently found this Vegan bakery, and I loved it! They have a good variety of pan dulce. They also have very good vegan tamales. I fully recommend this place.“

“My first time trying Mediterranean food and what can I say, the dishes were authentic and so delicious, especially the Fattoush Salad . Loved it so much. I will definitely recommend to my friends.“

“Busy on the weekends and mornings so recommend coming here on a weekday. We came here during Wednesday for dinner and did not have to wait. They were out of the chicken rice but had everything else. You order at the front and then get a seat. They don’t do reservations so best to come with a small group of 2-3. Highlights on the menu for us we’re the French Toast and Pork Belly Rice. The French Toast was sweet with a crispy outside and fluffy inside. Overall, great place with good prices and would come back!“

“It’s really healthy and still delicious! There’s another really good dish called the kechapuri that’s overlooked but super good! I’d get the wrap and a kechapuri! The kechapuri is a little less healthy but super good and the wrap skin is very good and thin!“

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