50 Best Bakeries in Austin

“The people at this place are so friendly. The first thing they do when you walk in and go up to the counter is hand you a free sample, which is amazing and it’s a full-size piece free sample. It’s not a little tiny bite. They have the famous Dubai chocolate and so many more sweets! I’ll come back! They do have one or two gluten free options.“

I’m glad we gave them another shot. We look forward to returning soon“

“I go here for runs on Saturday mornings when I’m able and love the environment as well as the people, staff, and seating. It’s a great spot to get water, fruit, breakfast, and meet up for some fun memories with friends, co-workers, or informal running groups. The atmosphere is stellar and enjoy going each week.“

“My weekly go-to place; the food, service, and atmosphere makes it feels like home. Food is a bit on the pricier end and worth the splurge every so often. There’s one item that’s not pictured, by the time i remember to take a photo that’s joint is gone. (Yes it’s that good). That is the Vegan Fish Wrap.

Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options too“

“Amazing selection of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern foods. From grape leaves, and a large selection of olives to Armenian string cheese. If you need it they have it. It's a grocery store, deli, and bakery all in one.“

“Love, love, love.

The cake is delicious and the frosting, PERFECT! I loved the multiple-layer cake style. A wonderful selection of flavors to take home single slices. Whole cakes are available for same day purchase, too. Also, cupcakes.

Their peanut butter sandwich cookie is my current Favorite Cookie of All Time. It is filled with a peanut butter frosting that is pure magic!

I was greeted with a warm smile and helpful suggestions when I asked. The shop is light and bright. The parking lot is terrifyingly full of children and SUVs due to the neighboring swim and dance studios, so I will definitely be trying their recently opened location just west of downtown ?.“

“deliciously fresh everyday“

“Hi! Could you share instructions for the frozen biscuits? Do they need to be thawed? Bake in a pan? On a cookie sheet?“

“Love it all! Customer service is great too!“

“Great high tea experience! Highly recommended!“

“Stopped by today to pick up an order and the gentleman at the front greeted me with a warm and welcoming smile, asked how my day was going and offered a sample cookie to try.

First of all, the cookie was absolutely delicious and I will definitely think of Cinnaholic at the Arboretum when I’m craving another. Second, as a prior business owner, I understand the importance of treating customers exceptionally well as they are the livelihood of every business and the way they handle folks here at Cinnaholic in the Arboretum is exemplary. I highly recommend this establishment for all you cookie-holics and cinnabon connoisseurs!!“

“Really nice location with great setup inside. Affordable pricing. Nice selection of pastries and coffee + danish was tasty. Wish there were more parking spots and gluten free options but overall nice clean area and also outdoor seating available!

I’ve eaten there many times before and it’s a super cute spot. The staff is always wonderful.“

“I got my beautiful birthday cake from them and it was the hit of my party! Not just because it was perfectly what I had imagined and was crazy adorable and funny but because it was absolutely scrumptious and everyone wanted to take some home! The service was wonderful and I will be getting my birthday cakes there forever!“

“Do you think you've ever had the best cookie in the whole world? Unless you had Kurty's, you need to think again! Holy mother of cookie heaven! This cookie will change your life.

All answers will come to you the moment you take that first bite. I promise!“

“Just popped by the downtown farmer's market yesterday with my family to celebrate my birthday. The mushroom and brie quiche I bought from Cake & Spoon was out of this world. I am blown away by both the quality of the food and Melissa herself. She is so kind and I loved chatting with her at the market. Please do yourself a favor and support this amazing business!“

“Good all over place to meet, work alone, bring kids. It's got the old Central Market vibe. Just a nice place to show up at wth some outside seating and magnificent cinnamon rolls and tomato soup. Everything else is wonderful. I just come for my two personal favorites. Instant happiness.“

“The cutest place ever. The girl at the counter was really quiet, but the cupcakes and cookies were so good lol. I asked her about hosting events such as a little meeting I wanted to host for my bridesmaids, but if I remember correctly she said she wasn't too sure about it. I may call later cause I think the place is adorable and the sweets are so good.“

“This pastry shop was so cute inside. The pastries were great and they had some unique flavors and desserts. I also got the iced hazelnut praline latte which was amazing. It was rich and the perfect amount of sweetness. It’s a cute quiet place to do work or try pastries with friends (which I did both).“

“I ordered myself a cake for my birthday. They were so easy to find when I typed in "Vintage Heart Cakes" on google. Even better, they had pictures and pricing on their website! The website allowed me to pick colors for my cake and there was a spot for me to type in more clarifying details I wanted for my cake. After that all I had to do was choose a pickup date/time and click "order" and pay! It was so easy!

The week of my birthday I decided I wanted a different color for my cake, I emailed them about 5 or 6 days before pick up and they were so quick in getting back to me on my color choices and told me it wouldn't be a problem at all.

I had my husband pick up the cake for me and they gave him a cookie while he waited! The vintage heart cake was everything I had wanted AND more because they added even more detail than I anticipated on the top of the cake. I was so pleased with the cake; it's the prettiest thing ever and I held it up in so many of my photos with friends at my party. Everybody loved it and we enjoyed it later that evening with a small group (about 10-12 people). I ordered a small vintage heart strawberry cake which came with a strawberry jam filling; it was delicious and moist!

10/10 cake on ease of ordering, easy pickup, beautiful decoration, and great taste! Would love to order from them again in the future. Thank you for making a 36th birthday girl so happy!“

“A tad pricy ($45 for a regular sized cake) but worth every penny. Cloud cakes have become a birthday tradition for everyone in our family, and every flavor is amazing.The various sweet breads are also delightful, especially melon and strawberry.“

“Staff very friendly, cream pies to die for.“

“I enjoy coming here is my favorite spot to work and go to hear live music ☺️“

“Absolutely impressed! I had a rush order for a surprise 50th birthday party for my partner. Not only was the response quick, but the customer service was wonderful. And THE CAKE WAS PERFECT! Everyone was fighting over who got to take the rest of the cake home. Truly one of the best cakes I have had. Thank you to the wonderful staff and bakers who made the day so special!“
