Pike Place Bakery

The donuts at this bakery were just okay - not bad, but not amazing either. It's worth noting that the bakery has plenty of other delicious-looking options, so it may still be worth checking out. However, if you're specifically looking for a standout donut, this bakery might not be the best bet.

We went here and had mixed reviews: 1 - we got the peanut butter cannoli, and it was amazing!! It was so delicious and creamy inside. A little on the sweet side, but so delicious. 2 - my husband got the big strawberry cup/cake thing. It looks scrumptious from the outside, but unfortunately was not as good as we thought. It was not fresh at all, and was kind of dry. Overall, it wasn't bad, but it was certainly not as good as we expected. Also, prices for these were a little on the higher side especially for the quality. About $6 for each. We would consider going back to try others, or at least just the cannoli!

Must stop location for delicious bakery items. The donuts are fresh & soft. We got one that could feed a whole family. It was huge. They have a lemon filled pastry we highly recommend too. Everyone is helpful and they packaged things up nicely for travel or to eat nearby.

If you want a fun gimmick, go to this bakery for the Texas donuts. It stays fresh as long as you keep it in a sealed container, but I can’t speak for the glazed types. I can only speak for the sugared one. Just a warning that their cannolis are super sweet, with the filling more like a cake fondant. I don’t recommend eating an entire one by yourself. I think their desserts/pastries are better off for sharing and not just for one person alone due to the size and sugar overload.

This was our first time at Pike's Place and stopped by as their items looked delicious. The owner was so friendly and wonderful, and helped our group make their selections on what they like. We got several of their brownies and cinnamon pull-a-part to go unfortunately no photos cause we gobbled it down because it was SO delicious. We will def stop by if we're ever back - we wished they shipped to other states!

Bought a cinnamon custard cup to go and enjoyed it at home since they cannot cut any of the pastries in store. The custard is a more runny texture than I thought, and it’s not sickly sweet which I actually prefer. I recommend heating it up at home a bit so the pastry can return to being soft and buttery : it was $6 for this pastry.

We are trying to eat healthy but we could not resist stopping for a few croissants. We got a chocolate and a butter croissant, and they were both amazing. They had a ton of options, and the staff was great at getting people's order quickly, and moving through the line.

The blueberry buttermilk bar is one of the best doughnuts I have ever had and I always look for it when I’m in the market and able to stop by Pike Place Bakery. Problem is, they don’t always have it in stock, and when they do, the wait is often very long due to slow service behind the counter and no real organization in serving customers that are waiting to buy something. This place will always be special but I hope the service picks it up again.

Options look nice. Not the best but taste fine. More like a donut/dessert shop than a bakery

This review is for the Texas Apple fritter only. What can I say this is the largest Apple Fritter AF I’ve seen to date. For some reason they had a special today and it was only $5! Probably just trying to clear inventory. This was purchased around 1145, so typically you aren’t getting the freshest donuts. Either way I’ve seen AF’s a quarter this size for over $2, so size and cost alone this would be an easy 5 stars. But size isn’t everything for a quality AF. I guess manufacturing a donut this massive creates some complications as it’s unevenly cooked with some sides burnt. Inside lacks the soft almost gooeyness with barely any chunks of apple making the taste somewhat bland. Overall it’s missing the quality and consistency throughout, to put this donut over the top.
