Artisan bakery and coffee/tea house with lovely employees and a lovely vibe. Pastry’s are a level up from many triangle bakers; They are made with quality ingredients and the pastry skills are there. Kim’s can by no means compete with the Owl bakerys, Hole Donuts or Bolted Breads of North Carolina. Flavors are punchy and interesting but not quite in balance. I’m glad Kim’s isn’t afraid of a little bit of sourness, tartness or bitterness in their baked goods. But the harmony of Ingredients isn’t perfect. With a little tweeting Kim’s could get there. Tea cakes are extremely moist. Danishes are flaky. And finally someone in this area is serving a cardamom bun! I’m seeing a lot of potential. With a few more years of practice and experimentation Kim’s may start producing baked goods that people go out their way for. In the meantime, if you’re in the area stop in for a delicious treat and great cup of coffee.

A lovely gem of a shop in Hillsborough!From their outrageously delicious donuts, to the relaxed and welcoming music selection, this shop welcomes you with open arms! I highly suggest the Ham Jam Tart, it was savory and sweet and just the perfect thing to start the day. If you want quality baked goods that taste amazing, go to Kims!

Was hiking with friends at the Hillsborough River Walk on Saturday morning and decided we needed coffee and a nibble afterwards. We're big Wooden Nickel fans so we decided to give Kim's Bake Shop a try. Loved it! Great location (next to WN) and, since the weather was perfect that morning... the outside seating was a great option (plus we had our dog with us). The inside seating looked warm and inviting and might be the perfect place next time we hike in colder weather (or if it is raining).French Press local coffee was pretty good (although a bit on the weak side). The multi berry scone was quite tasty, but a bit too crumbly for a scone. The other two folks got the quiche w/ bacon and said it was really, really good.We will be back.

What a treat! My husband and I visited on a whim right before they closed. I was nervous to go inside because it was so close to closing time. Kim was so warm and friendly! We got a couple cookie sandwiches and a apple cider donut. Everything was delicious. Can’t wait to go back and try their chicken pot pie.
First visit...stopped in Friday morning...no pies , and only one cake choice available. Ordered 6 mixed doughnuts for the office. The doughnuts were very dry and crumbled in our hands after first bite.Knowing that the shop has limited days they are open, I was hopeful with Friday being their first day of the week being open , that the goods would be flavorful , moist and a have a selection of pies and cakes. Not so.Also on a service note...only one person working the counter with 5 of us in line. It wasn't until the owner saw more customers come in did she leave her laptop (which was located near the entrance) and decide to assist.I purchased an Oreo cake for a small dinner tonight. Fingers crossed :)

My new guilty Saturday pleasure. Their blueberry vanilla scone besides being huge is without a doubt the best I’ve ever had except maybe, the blueberry white chocolate might be better. I’ve always found scones a bit dry. These have a perfect texture, sweet but not too sweet. I’m looking forward to trying other flavors.I also tried the strawberry lemon donut. It was excellent the lemon icing was tart and added a slight zing to the delicious cake donut.Service is always impeccable. Seating outside is a fun way to spend some time on a Saturday morning.

I’ve been there three times now and have been so happy with everything every time. Delicious pastries that are priced right! Cold brew is absolutely so delicious! I loveeeee the bacon and cheddar scones! And they rotate what pastries they sell so it’s not always the same! Definitely favorite place in Hillsborough to support
