17 Best Bakeries near Glen Ellen

“My husband insisted on having a wedding cake, and I must admit, I'm not typically a big cake person. After stumbling upon Flour & Bloom with its amazing reviews, I was intrigued. We scheduled a tasting, sampled 10 different flavors, and were blown away with how delicious each one was. It really was so hard to pick just one! We ultimately chose the olive oil cake with Meyer lemon curd—a flavor combination that had us swooning.What truly set Flour and Bloom apart was not just the incredible taste, but also the exceptional service provided by Ora Beth. She guided us through the process with ease.Ora Beth exceeded our expectations. She brought our vision to life flawlessly. Our cake was not only delicious but also a stunning centerpiece for our special day.Despite the two-hour drive it takes to reach Flour& Bloom, there's no doubt that our next cake will come from them.“

“This place is a wonderful hidden gem filled with good food great service and relaxing environment! I ordered the veggie omelet and my favorite part was how fresh the vegetables tasted in the omelet, and it comes with a side - I chose the country potatoes and they reminded me of the breakfast potatoes my Nanna made me from scratch as a kid I loved this ! My husband just had pancakes but the pancakes are their own recipe from scratch and he enjoyed them. Service was for sure top tier , we were greeted at the door, and seating you get to choose your own place to sit and we were taken care of very quickly even though there was a nice amount of people in the restaurant. Everyone who checked on us throughout our meal had a good upbeat attitude we are likely to return tomorrow or the day after before heading home the food and service was THAT good !“

“The pastries, coffee and other baked goods are so memorable. I don't know how someone could just get one thing! The staff had electric personalities and very quick, which got people moving. There was about five people ahead of me but I was served in less than five minutes it felt like. I got an oatmeal latte with plenty of pastries. This is a must go to bakery! There's an outside and indoor seating area. Plenty of room for friends, family, and your pets!“

“We have never been here when the store was not remarkably clean, the workers were not incredibly kind and the wait was totally appropriate for either ordering inside or ordering online and picking up.Kid-friendliness: The kids literally scream with excitement when we talk about coming here.“

“Our experience with the Wooden Petal was fantastic. I ordered 8 pretzels for my husband’s birthday because he LOVES pretzels. I read great reviews on a few pages and gave it a try. The experience from start to finish was great. They were so friendly when I picked up my order. There was a little birthday message on the box. Such a nice detail. We warmed up the pretzels according to the directions and wow were they tasty! We will order again, for sure. Thank you for helping me create such a nice birthday weekend.“

“I am so angry that I found this place. The people are nice and the pasties are amazing. I'm angry because I am trying to eat less pastries and Stellina Pronto is making that more difficult. Maybe even impossible. But if you are looking for a great pastry spot in the area or good sandwich - this is your spot.“

“Food was delicious, each entree was fairly big and felt shareable too. The lady taking your order was in a horrible mood and didn’t care if she shared it to others. Parking was a little confusing and seating it very limited. Pastries were very good too. We got the idea to come here because of sunflower cafe carrying their pastries.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread was very good.“

“WOW. How bout a cheeseburger in a pie. Yes you heard me right, not only a hand pie with the savory taste of a cheeseburger all in one, make it grass fed beef too, yup you get the benefit of Omega 3's & other health benefits while downing that cheeseburger pie. Taylor, one of the new owners stopped me in my tracks when he told me about the best seller. It sounded unusual but I went ahead & tried it. It was like a cheeseburger but not like a cheeseburger cause it's a pie too. They pack the hand pie with lots of ground up local grass fed beef. It was delicious and filled me up. Go ahead and order that pie and any other scrumptious pie on the menu. They have fruit pies, big pies and hand pies. And wish Taylor & his mom his business partner the best. Gosh it's great to see a young, local Petaluma entrepreneur have a dream and act on it.“

“I recently celebrated my birthday with a cake from Scandia Bakery in Sonoma, and it was a delightful experience! My wife surprised me with their red velvet with chocolate cake, and it was absolutely scrumptious. The cake was moist, the frosting was decadent, and every bite was pure bliss. If you're in Sonoma and craving a delicious treat, I highly recommend stopping by Scandia Bakery. You won't be disappointed!“

“Love this little place. The Alice in Wonderland art is so cute! We got potato cakes, eggs, and a quinoa bowl. All of it was good. It took a while but it's ok...I'd rather have food that someone put some time into rather than slopping it on a plate. Nice staff.“

“Love this place. Everything is always delicious. Pizza looks amazing and while I'm glad they now offer by the slice, I sure wish they would expand the whole pie offering to during lunch. Would be great for office parties etc. Until then , I'll have to suffice to say it "looks great."“

“Get here early or you'll wait in line to get a table. Beautiful set up inside. You can sit to dine or just go to the pastry or bread line to purchase baked goods to take home. Love the French bistro vibe. We sat at the community table. Not too bad. Didn't like the cold air hitting me every time the door opened but, hey, I've got a seat. While my party sat down, I wandered to check out the pastries. Everything looked absolutely scrumptious! Difficult to decide but I ended up selecting these pastries to take home. You can also just order from here and bring it to your table. Blueberry Cloud Chocolate Croissant Apple Braid Jam & Cream When I returned to my table, my party had already ordered their coffees. Gorgeous gigantic lattes and I ordered a cappuccino. Took a minute for coffees to arrive. Dishes are large portions. Plated nicely and looked amazing. We ordered: A cup of Asparagus Soup - delicate but full of flavor. If you love asparagus, you'll enjoy this. Corned Beef Hash - generous portion of meat topped with 2 perfectly poached eggs. Hope you're hungry! Croque Madame Egg Breakfast Service was great. Our waitress was friendly and professional. She always checked on us. She had a great attitude.“

“Was in Sonoma for the weekend and my favorite dining experience was here! The portions and quality of the food are exceptional. The folks running the spot clearly have a lot of pride for what they do and really set my day off to a good start. I had the breakfast burrito and was overwhelmed by the amount -- but it was delicious. The jelly donut is amazing too. This is a must-do next time I come to Sonoma.“

“This place is a bread baker's dream!!! I have been buying Central Milling Company flour online for a while, but visited this store for the first time in October. It's so cool! I love all of the flours and baking supplies that they sell.“

“This bakery has THE BEST French loaves in the area! That said, don't walk in expecting your typical bakery. This is a *working* bakery and, walking inside, you stand amidst all of the equipment that goes into baking. Yes you can walk in (not too far in, it's tiny). Yes you can buy breads (& pretzels). Yes it may take a few minutes as the Bakers will walk out from baking "in the back" to assist you in your purchase. Yes they have a cowbell. Yes you may just have to "ring" it over and over. And over again. No big deal. Just get your bread because the bread is what you're there for. I've been here 3 times since I moved to the area and I love it. The employees have all been nice and accommodating and attentive (once they're out front with you). Also. If I cannot get to the bakery I have to be sure to hit up our local Whole Foods store *early* because ....1. that's where I'll find their French loaf (I love that they supply our local WF w/their breads!); 2. their breads are so good that if I go any later than 10am (11am, latest!), the store will be out of our favorites! I definitely recommend this establishment for their high-quality breads! Go. You won't be disappointed.“

“I’ve never been able to justify eating a cookie a day but that’s exactly what I did during my time in Sonoma. These chocolate chip cookies are quite literally the best find of the year. Go early and buy as many as you can without being selfish.“

“I feel bad for coming here since I work at a cafe down the street. But the bagel sandwiches are really great for the price you get them for. The coffee is alright, the service is great. Bagels are great. But I ordered a sandwich with Cholula and my sandwhich was wet, love the enthusiasm but the packets on the side are nicer lol. Overall great place.“
