16 Best Bakeries in Boise

“Nice local bakery I like to support. Pies are their strength, both fruit and cream pies. Fillings are plentiful and locally sourced. I hate to admit their rolls and bread items need improvement. Simply put, they taste as if they had no salt added. Bland. Salt is essential in order to make flavors really great. I don’t know why the lack of salt, but it’s why the rolls aren’t excellent.“

“Noah saved the day! Huge thank you for helping us with a large order that the Meridian branch made impossible and very difficult beyond reason.

Crumble cookies are always a hit. I would recommend the Boise branch awesome attitudes, smart, good business operations.

Visit Meridian Crumble if you only need one cookie and zero business sense.

Thank you again Noah!“

“I went for the second time 10/15 around 9pm and the lady was great! Patient, helpful, and had some good conversation. Wish I had gotten her name to add but she was fantastic. The cookies were great and we left with smiles on our faces. Great place to check out!“

“Took my baby downtown Boise to see the local must go spots you don’t read about when discovering how amazing Boise is. And of course we had to grab a breakfast bagel sandwich and the only bagel shop to eat at Blue Sky Bagels. All the girls Jess T and Grace to offer yummy suggestions and playful company. Excellent service. Especially love how Grace NEVER forgets a face or an order!!!! All I can ever say about this place is YUM!!!! Even dance a little before my first bite.“

“Sunshine Spice Bakery & Cafe is always a wow factor, and where I often take out of town visitors for something fun, delicious, and unique. The pastries are always exquisite. The dumplings you'll crave until your next visit. The coffee is good, and they offer unique flavors like ube and saffron options.“

“I loved this place many years ago. So the only reason I would mark this down a notch is because we got there 6 minutes after they stopped building sandwiches. They wouldn't budge in that even though we drove from anther state to get there. Oh well. We did pickup cookies though“

“Cake: the cake was so impressive! Definitely a show stopper! The design of the entire cake left us all in awe. You could tell she planned and carefully hand-crafted every part of the cake, from the small to the big details.Service- Paola was so kind and helpful. She was more than willing to collaborate with me. She worked with my budget. She communicated with me and answered all my questions in a thorough and timely manner.She made my son’s birthday special! I highly recommend her! 5/5 stars! She is THE BEST!“

“Very polite and understanding staff, even when you accidentally try to pay with your costco ID. I would recommend ordering in and having an artistic latte while you take in the shop. This is a great place to meet friends, go on a first date, do homework, or be solitary and read a book.

Vegetarian options: Mainly parties, one or two breakfast sandwiches.

Dietary restrictions: They offer milk alternatives and gluten-free pastries (I have never had these, so I can not speak to the tastel

Parking: This is the middle of downtown Boise, so parking is difficult during the week, but it is very walkable/bikeable if you are somewhere downtown

Wheelchair accessibility: The building follows ADA regulations, but the floor layout does not allow ease of accessibility during peak times. This is probably the only negativity I have about this location“

“We love Gaston's. Highly recommend! We will be back again!“

“Amazing bakery for many reasons. Catering options are incredible and the fresh bread, no preservatives is also an important reason to shop here. it's local and you are supporting an Idaho family when you go!“

“Always come to Certified when we visit Boise. The English muffins are the best“
