50 Best Bakeries in Seattle

“My first day in my new city and as I walked around trying to find what I needed and came across a sign leading me here. The barista was kind and listened to my story. The pastry was amazing with tons of cinnamon and the mocha, just what I needed to move on with my move in.“

“OMG! I just ate a Lilikói shortbread cookie. I found them at Uwajimaya. This is the best cookie ever!!!! Thank you Patrick’s!! 💜“

“This place was incredible! So unabashedly Parisian, from the staff to the ambiance and the menu choices. We ordered a few breakfast items, all of which were delicious. The pain au chocolate was flaky perfection. Right now, it’s decorated for the holidays, so it’s extra adorable. Highly recommend if you want a little piece of Paris heaven. ❤️💙“

“Love!❤️ double baked chocolate croissants 🥐“

“Their selection is great! As a vegetarian the owner gave me good recommendations and my meat eating friends loved theirs as well. Grab a few and bring them over to the lake for a lovely picnic! Decent prices and helpful staff makes this a must visit spot.“

“Best guava cake around, highly recommend. Can’t wait to have it for my birthday soon“

“I like it simple with their cinnamon doughnuts. They are just awesome. I love brown-bagin these in public...tasting so good, I feel like I'm breaking the law.“

“Beautifully prepared and delicious food.
Stopped by this morning to load up on pastries for family that was visiting, got a few tea cakes and donuts some savory treats like the gruyere and shallots croissants and tried some new things with the miso caramel cookie.
Everything that we got was flavorful and well-cooked.
The lobby is bright and open and I love all of the different plants. When I went the line was wrapped out the door and I was concerned it would take forever but staff had things moving quickly and smoothly without making me feel rushed.
Definitely recommend checking this place out!

Shout-out to the packaging! Visited again today and I was walking. I was worried my tart would be squished or flattened on my journey but it was packed into its own box and placed gently on the top corner. Perfectly intact when I got home 20 minutes later! And delicious!!“

“Excellent food, pastries with meats and loaded. Soups are delicious, desert pastries phenomenal !! Staff is very helpful and friendly. Definitely going there every time we are in the area.“

“Cool, nostalgic Seattle atmosphere. Everything they make is super fantastic from sandwiches to coffee/lattes. Best Coconut Cream Pie ever :)“

“Fuji bakery's strawberry shortcake is my favourite dessert in the WORLD so my husband and I ordered it for our wedding two weeks ago as a cutting cake. Susien was so wonderful and gave me so much good advice as I tried to decide what size cake I wanted and how I wanted it to look. The final cake was gorgeous and delicious and the perfect wedding cake for“

“Awesome; customer service, bread, bagel, dessert, and coffee along with numerous coffee style choices! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“So yummy! I had their avocado toast with a fried egg added, a cardamom bun and black coffee. The bread for the avocado toast was very thick and a very nice grainy, nutty flavor to it. The lemon and za’atar seasoning on the avocado added the perfect flavor to it. The cardamom bun was so yummy, this is great if you want something a little sweet but not too sweet. The coffee was perfect- I typically only add cream and sugar to coffee if the flavor is mediocre, but this coffee was already so good that I didn’t need to add anything to it. I definitely want to come back and try more things on their menu.“

“Oh my goodness! This bakery has so many yummy treats! Some of our favorites were the churro cruffin, pear crème brûlée, blueberry pastry, almond croissant, and the ham and cheese croissant. Don’t miss this gem!“

“My husband was sweet enough to wake up at 6:30 to walk 20 minutes to the pike place area to pick us up some pastries after I had been influenced by Instagram. This place did not disappoint! The stone fruit croissant/pastry and the berry cheesecake pastry were a total surprise! The strawberries & cream croissant was sweet and yummy and the croissants were delish too. All in all amazing.“

“Second year in a row for a Thanksgiving Pie Bird Bake Shop pie. My 94-year-old mother who was quite a pie baker, and very critical of pies, gives these a double thumbs up!“

“As this was my first time visiting. I can say I will definitely go back again and again. The very delicious donuts. Thank you for all your hard work in creating this staple in the city.“

“The chocolate cake is so delicious...and available by the slice. My usual purchase is a slice of leek and gruyere quiche, or quiche Lorraine, but you need to get to the bakery early as the quiches sell out quickly. The hot coffee mocha is mighty fine, too.“

“Although finding parking is a bit of a challenge, this place did not disappoint. I chose a variety of items to try, the regular croissant, the chocolate hazelnut croissant, the pan au chocolat, and the Kouign amann. Each and everyone of them was amazing. Perfectly flaky and soft all at the same time, the flavors out of this world.“

“Had the chocolate chip cookie on a Delta flight today. I’m not really a cookie or sweets guy but this cookie was awesome. I’m going to have to order a dozen!“

“the best ube & vietnamese coffee cheesecake😍“

“DELICIOUS! Cookies were fresh and soft, ice cream was great!“

“Great, tasty, huge, filling and yummy cookies. I am an original lover of these cookies from their hometown roots in Michigan. Now I get them shipped in.“

“Quick! Friendly service. Fresh to day old with an array of choices to choose from.“

“wonderful tasty bakery items ! Coffee was also excellent ! Enjoyed thoroughly. It would have more enjoyable if some sitting arrangements were provided .“

“I work downtown and love visiting Three Girls Bakery on a Friday afternoon to grab a few goodies for the weekend! Their scones are a personal favorite of mine (so far every flavor I’ve tried has been delicious). During my most recent visit, they had gingerbread cookies that were both cute and tasty!“

“I just finished the vanilla bean scones from the pastry kit subscription. That was the best scone I have ever had. Delicious and beautiful! Thank you 😄😄😄“

“Sea Wolf is always a favorite stop when I’m anywhere north of downtown Seattle, Lake Union, or Fremont. Their baguette is truly the best in the entire Seattle area, and is the closest to the baguettes that I’ve had in France. (Though it might feel a little pricey, I think you get what you pay for and it’s worth it.)

— The green vinaigrette pizza is awesome.
It’s the perfect balance of a savory focaccia pizza with a green vinaigrette on top for some acidity. Make sure you get a side of their homemade ranch with it (even if you don’t like ranch with pizza—this one is different!)

— The baguette is a must. All of the breads are fantastic.

— Coffees are always good.

—The atmosphere inside is nice. There are tables to sit down and get some work done with your food or meet a friend for a coffee and a pastry.

Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area.“

“Incredibly yummy, time-tested innovations with something to please every palate. Puff paste from scratch raises Palmiers to a whole new level. Don't miss the Squareos and salted caramels!“

“Baker hard at work Saturday night.“

“What a jewel of a place. Angel’s desserts are delicious creations worthy of the best French pastry shops, prepared with an enthusiasm for the work that I have rarely seen anywhere. Latte was excellent, almond croissant was the best in town so far. If you care about great (not just good) pastries, a real sense of place, and want to support a local business, this is the one. Can’t wait to take delivery of our bûche de Noël.“

“The staff was so friendly and went above and beyond to help meet our needs. On top of the excellent service the food was amazing. I am already on planning on going back tomorrow!“

“One of my favorite quick and easy travel meals in the city! I used to go multiple times a weeks when the location was downtown. The new capital hill spot has fairly easy parking. Though not near my work route, I still make the trip over for the bacon/ham/ egg or the garlic beef. Lots of amazing stuff to try with loads of light and airy seating options.“

“Hello, I was here on Feb 4 around 9:30-10am. Just wanted to say that the service was really nice. They were willing to remake my drinks when I forgot to say I wanted them iced and I also spilled one of my drinks and they were quick to help me. Safe to say, I was having a pretty bad morning but the two people working the bar were so helpful. My social anxiety was through the roof but they remained really kind the entire time which made me feel a lot better about my mess ups. Thank you guys! Will continue to be a regular costumer.“

“Made it all the way to SoCal. So yummy! 🥰🙌🏻.“

“deeeeelucious!!!!!!! did a preorder pickup...great experience, great food!“

“We ordered a vegan raspberry vanilla 6-inch cake for my fiancé’s birthday, and it was a total hit. Vegan cakes can be hit or miss, but this one was both delicious and beautifully made.

The owner was very responsive, and arranging everything was easy from start to finish, starting with instructions on the website. There was no issue at all with a Friday morning pickup for a Monday order (which I thought might be too quick a pickup turnaround, but she said anything over 48 hours notice works), and pickup itself was smooth and simple. Would absolutely order again.“

“Literally the best pan dulce in the Puget Sound region. From Tacoma to Bellingham, you will find no better pastries with better selection. I have tried everywhere. I dream about this place. The empanadas are especially good, perfect Mexican and Tex-Mex style and they have all the RIGHT flavors- calabaza (pumpkin), manzana, piña, cream. Every concha flavor you could want, gingerbread pigs, ojos, pan de muerte. They are also very nice and speak English and Spanish. I only wish there was a second location on the Eastside, maybe Bellevue or Issaquah.

A close second is Plaza Latina in Shoreline, but Pasteleria is much easier to park, bigger selection, not so crowded and much cleaner inside tbh. Thank you for nourishing all of Western Washington!“

“Delicious food, perfect tea, and a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I love the Edmonds location because I can walk there from my home! Cannot recommend highly enough! Five out five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Customer service is great. The owner was serving us and she's as so nice! She told us how the shop opened in June during the pandemic. There isn't seating inside but just across the street is a cute open public seating area. We got the chocolate chunk salted cookie, the vegan triple chocolate cupcake, mocha, and chia with oat milk. I recommend all of it! The vegans triple chocolate cupcake was perfect, moist and light.“

“Best coffee I have had in Seattle hands down.“

“Soup, sandwich, coffee, bread, everything here is wonderful.“

“For a Tuesday afternoon, the line wasn’t too long, but they were definitely busy. To be honest, I can’t even remember if we got the Pineapple Bun or the Curry Beef Hom Bow. I remember it was good, but not out-of-this-world amazing. I would still say it’s worth a stop if you’re touring Pike’s Place (especially if you love Chinese pastries). However, since I can’t even remember what I ordered, it wasn’t as memorable as I had hoped.“

“This place is easily one of our favorite Vietnamese bakeries in Seattle. The bánh mì bread here is the best we’ve had in the city—light and airy on the inside, slightly chewy, and perfectly crispy on the outside, just like what you’d find in Vietnam. The fillings are solid and well-balanced, letting the bread really shine.

We also tried the pâté choux, a classic Vietnamese pastry, and honestly… it tasted even better than what we’ve had back in Vietnam. Everything felt fresh and thoughtfully made. Overall, this is a great spot, and we’ll definitely be coming back for more.“

“DELICIOUS! Cookies were fresh and soft, ice cream was great!“

“Usually, it’s the great tradition of high quality coffee shops that the better the coffee, the more unbearable the staff. Fresh flowers shows that this does not have to be true. Their staff are a complete joy. The coffee is wonderful. The pastries are even better and couldn’t be any fresher… They bake them right in front of you.

If I had to make one suggestion to make this experience even better, I love it when a coffee shop gives me a free drip coffee when I buy a pound of coffee. If they added that policy, my coffee life there would be thoroughly complete and without regret. As it stands, their beans are rare, fantastic, and feature lighter roasts than many of their local alternatives.“

“i ordered a small cake for my boyfriend’s birthday to finally have a chance to try this place out, and i can say this is one of the best cakes i’ve ever had. not too sweet/overbearing and definitely one to savor as you take each bite.

i got lucky with the quick turnaround (called on friday for a sunday pickup), but the owner recommends to give at least a week’s notice for future cake orders. can’t wait to come here again sometime and get cake for my friends and loved ones to try!“

“Tasty, beautiful cakes at very reasonable prices and great service! Will be back for more“

“Twice baked almond croissants and baguette - and wonderful friendly service.“
