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!“

“A dream, truly. Everything here is magical ✨ Lara is THE SWEETEST! Even sweeter than the treats 🍪 and her story is very cool and inspiring. You absolutely cannot go wrong but my favorites are the Bourbon Maple 🍁 Vanilla Pecan bar, Sweet Potato 🍠 Pie bars, the brookies, chocolate chip/espresso Oreo cookies 🍪, the London fog and biscoff cookies are also fire…. Imma just name the whole menu if I continue! One of my fav bakeries in LA! And now they have cafecitos too! Which are also divine. Parking is easy- either street or neighborhood. The shop is clean and inviting. 10, 10, 10 across the board.“

“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.“

“Finally got to try this boulangerie, and it didn’t disappoint!! Be prepared for a line, if you’re lucky not a long one. They use whole grain flour and amazing butter quality, the flakiness is insane even on the cinnamon roll which Im usually not a fan of and I think that I might go back just for that!! Also got the pain au chocolat granola which I can’t wait to try… it’s genius!!“

“Incredibly delicious and so happy they had a substantial sandwich on focaccia. Relaxed neighborhood with easier parking, tucked away from hustle and bustle of downtown. Beautiful views of the city from here, and DASH bus stop, scooter rental and bike share make it accessible by transit Updated from previous review on 2026-06-27“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

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

“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!“

“**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!“

“Cookie Good is so reliably delicious! I've ordered their cookies for many events and life milestones over the years, from graduations to birthday parties. I recently bought several dozen wrapped cookies for a birthday party, and adults and kids alike loved them. They had so much fun trying all the creative flavors, and of course, kept telling me how tasty every flavor was. I highly recommend!“

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

“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“

“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!“

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

“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 🤪“

“What a wonderful experience! The food is fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. You can really appreciate the quality of the ingredients and the attention to tradition. The staff is kind, welcoming, and happy to explain the menu if it’s your first visit. It’s refreshing to find a place that stays true to Armenian culinary heritage while providing such excellent customer service. I will definitely be coming back!“

“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“

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

“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!“

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

“I arrived just as they were closing, but they still kindly sold me a piece of bread instead of turning me away. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the bread was simply divine—fresh, flavourful, and worth every bite.

Excellent customer service and excellent bread. I’ll definitely be back, hopefully a little earlier next time.“

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

“This bakery has been here before I was even born everything here is super affordable and delicious if they don’t have it they make it on the spot they have everything from little pastries to whole cakes and bread definitely worth the pit stop if your craving something sweet they have donuts and empanadas as well“

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

“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.“

“We had a nice, cozy dinner here and really enjoyed the atmosphere. We ordered our pasta without cheese, but it was accidentally served with cheese. The staff handled the mistake very professionally and apologized immediately. They quickly brought us the correct order, and the service throughout the evening was friendly and attentive. Mistakes can happen, but the way they resolved the situation was excellent.“

“I came here Sunday evening because I needed to take pastries to a last minute gathering. The service was wonderful. Everyone was so helpful. I even purchased some cheesecake for my husband. He's very picky but he absolutely loved it. I'm definitely coming back to try their coffee drinks.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

“The BEST CREME BRULEE DONUTS. The caramel shell is generous enough that it cracks perfectly on the dough. The custard is cold and not-so-sweet. Absolutely delicious. The owner gave me two extra freebies as I visited near closing. Good service, great food. Love, love, love!“

“Just got a family gift box of these delivered for Christmas and man! Great wrapping and appearance! Very festive! NOWW, the taste! The best cranberry cookie (craizy 4 u) I’ve ever eaten! So excited to try the others, I don’t want to share!“

“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.“

“Excellent experience! It was extremely busy, but our server IZZY made us feel like we were the only table in the restaurant. The service was attentive, friendly, and never rushed.

The focaccia bread was absolutely out of this world. Even with a packed restaurant, the food came out and tasted just as amazing as every other time we’ve been here. We’ll definitely be back, whether it’s busy or not!“

“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“

“My favorite place wonderful food, desserts and coffee“

“Best baked choco 🍩 .. mmm“

“Oh my goodness! This place was such a beautiful find. I absolutely loved all the options they had for gluten-free and dairy free. I got the lemon cake and two of the sprinkle cookies to bring home to me and my family. The bread options are amazing for gluten-free as well. I ended up getting their chorizo and egg for breakfast. Absolutely amazing food. On the side I got tater tots, they were crunchy and very tasty. Not greasy, which is hard to do when you fry something. We sat in the back where the wine area is because it was really hot that day so the ambience in that little area was very quirky and eclectic. It’s a very comforting delicious place to go visit if you’re hankering for some gluten-free, dairy free pastries. Did I mention the entire place is vegan!“

“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“

“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!“
