50 Best Bakeries in Seattle

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

“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.“

“Absolutely incredible French pastry shop! I came here with 8 people, so naturally we decided the only reasonable thing to do was order basically one of everything. We got a little bit of everything this place had to offer, and somehow every single pastry was incredible. Not one miss.

Everything was fresh, beautifully made, and ridiculously good. I’ve tried pastries all across the PNW, and this is easily the best I’ve had. If you’re anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and come hungry—you’re going to want to try everything.“

“the best ube & vietnamese coffee cheesecake😍“

“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 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“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!“

“Their ham and cheese empañada is the best I have ever tasted! Their pastries are delicious!“

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

“I had the classic meatloaf sandwich and it was excellent. We were just walking around and found an empty bar area and sat down and apparently it was the seating area for the bakery for folks that wanted to grab a quick bite instead of take out. Either ways, the service was excellent and all the sandwiches my group got were delicious and at a good price.“

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

“These pastries are art, this bakery is truly a temple of high craft. I stumbled across Christina Wood's book at the local library. I leafed through some pages and was impressed by the technique and pictures. I thought this baker seems to know what's up. I came to the bakery and realized the book doesn't even do justice to how good this place is.

Creative flavors, baked to perfection, so much variety, and everything is consistently good. Highly recommended.“

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

“Pesto cheese croissant Poppy seed coffee bread“

“Hello! We live out of town but have family in Seattle. We love your food so much after trying it for the first time at Metier and always get it when we’re in town.

We would love to hire you for a catering event next weekend!“

“Daily Dozen was one of our favorite food stops at Pike Place Market during our family trip to Seattle.

We ended up getting two dozen plain mini donuts across two different days, once on our Pike Place Market day and again on our aquarium day. The line was only a few minutes long when we went, and it was fun being able to watch the donuts being made.

The donuts were fresh, warm, soft, and airy without being too dense. They were simple, but really good. Our 3-year-old daughter absolutely loved them and they became one of the foods she remembered most from the trip.

The price felt in line with Pike Place Market tourist pricing, and the quality made them worth it for us.

Highly recommend stopping here if you are visiting Pike Place. They are easy to share, easy to eat while walking around, and a really fun market treat.“

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

“The barista’s are always welcoming and warm. Their lattes are dreamy! The pastries are fantastic!“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Looks like a nice spot- very popular obviously so FYI if there's a 15 minute wait in the line to order that means ~1/2 wait for your food so could be tough to accomplish on a standard lunch hour. But the iced latte was good and I'll be back when I have more time to try the food!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“One of the few bakeries that open early, I wasn’t very hungry but after I ate the mango croissant with mascarpone I suddenly wanted more! It was amazing the flavours worked very well together and the owner told its with ingredients form the market. My partner has a pain au chocolat which was also great. Very friendly owners highly recommend I would for sure go again.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

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

“I know a food critic that believes sea wolf is the best bakery in the country. It’s easily the best in Washington and rivals bakeries I went to in Europe. So yes we have the best bakery in the country in Seattle. They have two actually. Amazing bread pastries. Anything you get.“

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

“Tony’s Bakery is my new go to place. A fun and happy place one stop shopping for your appetite. We were having a birthday party and this is what I ordered: Decorated chocolate fillings cake wings(fish sauce glazed vegetarian fried spring rolls shrimp fried rice fresh shrimp rolls chicken pan fried noodles Everything was delicious and the owner made sure everything was perfect! Thank you I will be back again and again and again!“

“A must try when in Seattle! Incredible vegan savory and sweet options - we are obsessed with the vegan beef and cheese piroshki, and potato rosemary, but there are so many! They have the best sticky bun ever too. Our son loved the non vegan ones too! One of the best places in Seattle!“

“Very high quality pastries and a wonderful cardamom latte and mocha :)“

“These donuts are absolutely amazing!!!! The man who runs it is super kind and light hearted. I work across the street and come in a few times for donuts now and there isn’t a donut i don’t like. so soft and flavorful! Also the first place i’ve seen honey glaze? It’s amazing!!!“

“Gotta give it five stars for being such a solid vegan lunch option in this neighborhood which is otherwise lacking. Really great chickpea sandwich and Americano. Also love that they sell fresh bread! The chocolate buckwheat cookie is perfect for those of us who like sweets on the more salty side.

A bit pricey but good portions. I only ate half of my sandwich and saved the rest for later.

I have to add though that it looks like they no longer have beer and wine which I was disappointed to learn! If they were open until like 8 or 9 and I could get a glass of wine in the evening I would legit come here like 3-4x a week“

“This cafe has unique seasonal flavors of your classic coffee drinks and bakery pastries. There’s ample space in the air conditioned upstairs or in open air seating outside. I enjoyed a Cardamom Rose Iced Late and chocolate croissant. The single all gender restroom was clean, well stocked, accessible, and had a changing table.“

“Next level good phenomenal donuts interesting flavors“

“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.“

“Baker hard at work Saturday night.“

“These are the most amazing cookies I have ever eaten. Birthday Cake is my favorite.“

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

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

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

“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!“

“Wonderful little coffee shop in Beacon Hill. Incredibly large selection of pastries, premade breakfast sandwiches and an assortment of other food items and drinks. Small amount of seating inside and out. Highly recommend their Sausage Mushroom Pithivier as well as the Green Chili Artichoke Croissant. The real treat was the Persimmon Ginger Latte.
Great place if you’re staying in Beacon Hill or nearby.“

“I loved the hum bao, just wish it had a bit more filling. I did try a crab Rangoon..... and let me tell you, that beast was worth $4! It was enormous and had very good amount of crab in it! The taro Boba was awesome. I want to come back and try the pork skewer. And maybe a few other things!“

“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 😄😄😄“

“I got to Anchorhead quite often since it is one of the only cafes around that opens at 7am. The coffee tastes good and they have some decent pastries. The downstairs area is large with a couch and several table - it’s a good place to study/work/hang out.
There are a few issues worth noting:
- the music especially downstairs is loud for a cafe so bring headphones
- the “medium” sized coffee is 10oz not 12oz and ordering an 8oz or a 10oz seems no different since they seem to come in the same mug. They should make their medium a 12oz
- the chairs downstairs could use some maintenance
Overall though still 5 stars, especially given their 7am opening.“
