Something as simple as a place that sells coffee and doughnuts or a more decadent place that bakes fresh bread daily with chocolate artisians, either way bakeries are always wonderful to visit.

Great variety of fresh baked bread, whole desserts (like cakes), dessert slices, pastries, sandwiches, and a lot more, all made fresh daily.

What the locals are saying

This place comes with rave reviews as well.

Kris says, "Twice baked almond croissants and baguette - and wonderful friendly service."

"Everything here is amazing. Don’t think about it, just get in line to go in," from Heather.

Melinda said, "OMG! The absolute best croissants ever. I have to travel a good fair distance to stop in for bakery items here, and in regular life avoid gluten whenever possible. But for these croissants— always worth it! Thank you thank you for being amazing!"

This award-winning bakery has three locations in Seattle including Burien, Capitol Hill, and West Seattle.

It was founded in 2006 when a self-taught baker opened a shop and, along the way, has more than 35 year experience, winning awards, and has even been included in one of the top 10 next generation chocolatier by Team USA back in 2005.
