    I've never had a better to-go experience in my life. No exaggeration. The food and iced coffee from Baxter and Frost turned an extremely stressful day into something beautiful. We didn't realize the Pride Parade was happening and got stuck in downtown traffic for over 90 minutes--literally crawling along the same block. It was chaos. Before that, a vendor at Pike Place Market tried to overcharge me $250 for something barely worth $20. I was irritated, overheated, and emotionally done. But then came Baxter and Frost. I'd seen this place earlier in the day and made a mental note to come back--and wow, am I glad I followed that instinct. I picked up a wildflower iced latte for my sister and two iced hummingbird lattes for me and my mom. They were flawless. Floral, creamy, and balanced with just the right touch of sweetness. I also grabbed the Nutella brownie, a mini blackberry pie, and a savory artichoke spinach puff pastry. Every bite was comforting and flavorful. That pie especially? Heaven. The pastry? Perfectly flaky. The brownie? Rich but not too sweet. And here's the real kicker: I had to walk four blocks down and five blocks back up steep Seattle hills in flip flops, carrying all that food and coffee while wearing a two-piece eggshell white outfit (because yes, I'm from San Diego). Not one spill. Not a drip. By the time I got to my sister and we hit the road to Portland, my feet were throbbing--but that food and iced coffee made everything allllll better. No kidding. It reminded me how good Seattle can be when you find gems like this. They were just starting to get swamped by a post-Pride Parade crowd when I walked out. I caught the sweet spot, and I'm so glad I did. Baxter and Frost is the kind of place you go out of your way for.

    We were all full after lunch and probably would have missed Baxter and Frost, but the aroma wafting from the entrance enticed us inside. I'm a sucker for freshly baked pastries with an espresso and Baxter and Frost did not disappoint. The mini apple pie with ice cream was AMAZING! We even took one to go. Located just a few feet from Pike Place Market, this place is absolutely worth the trip !

    Dark Chocolate With Sea Salt

    Came here on a Saturday morning from Pike Place. My husband came in craving sweets, so we ordered the Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownie and the Dark Chocolate Cookie with Sea Salt. Both were delicious and soft! The Peanut Butter Chocolate Brownie was and not too sweet; the peanut butter flavor was the right amount and the texture was gooey. The Dark Chocolate Cookie with Sea Salt was soft and gooey without being too sweet; we could definitely taste the sea salt on top. Also, the edges were more crisp and the middle was gooey. Highly recommend these two items! There is seating inside but it was crowded. Most folks were taking a break from Pike Place and left after their snacks/drinks.

    The bakery was quite fresh. My partner and I came by this place looking for coffee and a quick bite. We ended up buying a raspberry danish, a cookie, and a specialty latte. Combined with the atmosphere, it made it a great place to pick up some sweet treats on a hot day. The service was smooth. The staff was patience while I was making decisions in my orders.

    This is a quintessential excellent service establishment. Now that we've been here on more than one occasion and had the same, consistent, amazing service, I can say that whoever is in charge of service delivery training deserves a raise. The ice cream and baked goods alone are amazing and worth every penny. There is always a good assortment to choose from and the ice cream flavors are pretty diverse. The ambience is very casual and family friendly. Whether you are looking for lattes, ice cream or baked goods, they got you.

    Perfect coffee and pastry shop near the Pike Market! It was the fresh pastries sitting on the racks near the street window that drew us in. My husband and I ordered iced lattes and had a berry danish. There are so many sweets to choose from! What a great variety of options of cookies, pastries, ice cream, and so much more. There is also a wall of packaged items for purchase which makes for a great gift or souvenir. The staff were friendly and quick, the line was steady and moved quickly. We even sat inside and enjoyed the excitement of downtown. The danish was delicious! Perfect filling to pastry ratio. We'll remember to come back on our next city visit!

    I order a mini pecan pie. It was very fresh and tasty. The service is good. I wish there was a sitting area to enjoy my pie.

    Rocky Road and another one I can't recall.  Both were very rich and creamy.

    This is a very nice looking bakery/ice cream/coffee shop located not far from Pike Place Market. They have plenty of interior seating. The ice cream is very rich and creamy. It's not cheap but the ice cream is definitely high quality and they give generous servings. The cookies and baked goods looked really good but we only tried the ice cream. Well worth trying.

    Great little hole in the wall, with even better cookies! Stopped by here as we were walking to Pikes Market, and had 4 different cookies (buy three, get one deal was great). The cookies as well as the coffee were great! Cookies were huge, but not overcooked, and coffee was good as well (sorry if you just want plain coffee, you can get an Americana). Overall probably glad I don't live closer, as I would stop here way too often.

    My boyfriend and I stopped into Baxter & Frost and will be coming back! Their shop is so cute and connected to pikes (I think). We had amazing customer service from Salana, they recommended the walnut brownie a la mode with rocky road and it was so good! Goodness gracias. And the barista Jacob made such delicious cups of coffee. Check them out

    Cake pops and brownies were the best we had this trip. Coffee was delicious and service was friendly. We loved this place. Get a Nutella brownie!

    Great selection
    T. G.

    Cute shop off the main market - little pricey IMO. My husband's last name is Baxter so we felt we needed to try! lol We asked the staff, if either of them knew origin of name and no one knew. We tried Oreo brownie (we got an end piece that was so so dry ugh) and tried the toffee cookie, that was good. They did have seating which looked nice but we grabbed to go. I think I would stick to the iced cream maybe or other items? Sad to say.. this wasn't great.

    Nutella Brownie

    Really good brownie and mini apple pie desserts! The brownie is huge but definitely for a sweet tooth. The apple pie was delightful. Highly recommend stopping by for dessert if you are near Pike Place! The are 3 tables for seating or can grab and go. The staff is also very friendly.

    Even though I'm a Seattle native and have lived here my whole life, I had somehow never been here…read morebefore! I stopped by over the weekend and tried the almond croissant and an iced vanilla latte. I was honestly surprised by how reasonably priced everything was, especially considering it's in such a tourist-heavy area. For comparison, the coffee shop upstairs (storyville) had lattes for around $8.50, while here we got two coffees AND two pastries for about $24 total. For the quality, I thought that was a really good value. I order vanilla lattes everywhere I go, and this one was fantastic. The space itself is also pretty large -- we were able to find seating easily even on a sunny Sunday afternoon in Seattle. It was very crowded, but still found a spot and the long line went by quickly. I'd definitely recommend stopping by if you're visiting Seattle!

When asking for the most popular item, the friendly employee said the almondine (almond croissant) would be the must-try. I have to say- it was a great croissant, but not the best I've ever had. However, I did think the pricing was very reasonable here. There is a small selection of indoor seating, and of course, they have a full coffee menu to enjoy, too. The vibe felt somewhat formal and not the cozy local bakery vibe I enjoyed at other spots in Seattle. The hardest part about visiting Pike Place is that there is so much to choose from and so much competition. Are there better bakeries? Probably. Is Le Panier great and easily accessible on the main strip of Pike Place? Yes. That fact makes it a great choice for your pastry needs.

The croissant was on the crispier side, especially with the almond crumble on top it was a bit too cripsy for me, but I tend to like soft and flakey pastries so it's probably a matter of taste. There was a TON of almond filling in the middle. I enjoyed the taste and texture but it was too much filling for me personally. I would have liked more croissant in my croissant, so to say haha. The chocolate was slightly dark which worked well with the sweet pastry and filling! Overall I enjoyed the croissant but it was a tad too heavy on the filling and cripsy/crunchy for me.

They have so many yummy options, but I settled on a mushroom and Gruyère pastry and an earl grey blueberry cruffin. The mushroom and Gruyère pastry was SO good!!! Buttery flaky layers of dough with a strong earthy mushroom flavor and savory cheese - an absolute umami bomb. We ate it the day after and threw it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes, and it was so delicious. The cruffin was huge! Topped with a delicious light Earl grey cream that wasn't too sweet. It was filled with a blueberry cream and was definitely very filling. There's a lot of sugar coating it, as is standard with cruffins, but it's a nice sweet treat. Definitely coming back for the mushroom and Gruyère pastry and to try their other delicious flavors. Their supreme croissant flavor switches often and we can't wait to try the next one!

While they serve Umbria coffee, which isn't my personal favorite, the food more than made up for it. The service was warm and friendly, and the overall vibe was welcoming. I'll definitely be back to try the mushroom croissant again or maybe explore some of their other pastries next time.

    I've been hesitant to visit Sea Wolf Bakers due to their prices. $8 baguette? Oomph. Well, in early…read moreMarch I finally decided to give them a try. And now I'm a regular... Through several visits: Baguette, Large ($7.95) - Great baguette with bubbling golden exterior complete with the perfectly baked crust even after waiting 3 hours before cutting in and eating. The interior has the perfect moisture level and is delightfully soft and chewy. The taste overall has a deep developed flavor. This is a great baguette. The only problem - the price. I can find ones for half the price that are maybe 80% as good as this one. (5/5) Seasonal Biscuit ($4.50) - This biscuit definitely isn't Southern-style. It's more of a drop biscuit, combining a relatively soft and tender interior with a nice exterior crust, without any flakiness or layering. The interior is almost cake-like in texture and crumb, and is plenty moist. They add plenty of fresh black pepper inside. It's distributed very evenly, giving a peppery bite with every mouthful. Parmesan is added to the top of the biscuit before baking, giving plenty of umami and richness but only on the upper layer. (4/5) Green Vinaigrette Cafeteria Style Pizza ($6.25) - The pizza is kept under a warming lamp, so it starts getting a little dried out after I assume a couple of hours spent there. I do love the base though - it's focaccia-like giving a really crunchy dark golden brown crust underneath, which supports the toppings. The pizza slice has lots of structural integrity and doesn't flop over. There's a base of fragrant concentrated tomato paste-like flavor which is topped with a very even layer of cheese. Since it's warmed rather than freshly baked, the cheese starts congealing a bit. The cheese is peppered with parsley, garlic, and a bunch of mustard seeds, giving a special zing. The toppings go all the way to the sides of the pie, making it great for people who dislike crust. Even though it's cafeteria style pizza that's kept under heat lamps, I quite liked it. I wonder if I can get a really fresh slice if I get there right at 11AM when lunch starts. (5/5) Chocolate Croissant ($6.10) - Great lamination with a very aesthetic honeycomb pattern. Baked on the harder side, causing fantastic crispy flaky layers to flake off, but also creating a darker golden brown character that is on the verge of bitterness. Nicely buttery soft and chewy interior. Chocolate is a darker variety, probably somewhere around 70%, so it has a pleasing balanced sweetness and chocolate flavor. It's not typical baton, instead seems to be a section from a bar. Still warm and melty even through I didn't eat the croissant until ~30 minutes after purchasing. When cooled down further, some red fruity notes start appearing, so this seems to be be pretty high quality. (5/5) White Sourdough ($12.60) - Now this is a loaf of bread. Superb crust, probably 2 or 3 times as thick compared to competitors, creating a supreme crusty bite with a chew approaching a hard crunch with almost caramelized molasses notes on the bottom. The interior is moist and tender with a pleasing slight sourdough tang. It's a superb piece of craftsmanship. (5/5) Kouign Amann ($5.80) - This is another heavier bake with some acridity development on the top surface. Unlike many other bakeries where the kouign amann is basically a differently shaped croissant with sugar glaze, Sea Wolf's version feels more in line with tradition. The crumb is denser and richer, more like brioche. There's interesting black speckling inside which I believe is due to the inclusion of espresso powder given the mild coffee-like flavor. The crust is again baked hard, but it's lighter and not as flaky as the croissant. They sprinkle just a bit of salt on top of a very light caramelized sugar glaze. It's not very sweet and I didn't find it too salty unlike some other reviewers. (5/5) Plain Focaccia Slice ($4.80) - Good quality olive oil, some salt sprinkled on top to boost the flavors. Light and airy interior, but the exterior is a little wan, being more light golden brown and lacking some good crusty crisp especially on the fried bottom. Quite oily. (4/5) Sea Wolf gives out free sourdough starter, which can be requested from the cashier. Since picking it up several weeks ago, I've gone through several feed/bake cycles for making sourdough focaccia. I've visited Sea Wolf 3 or 4 times in the last month. That's a testament to how high quality their pastries and breads are. I think the only thing stopping me from visiting more is thanks to the starter I got from them fanning my baking instincts. I bake so much now that I don't have any need to buy their bread! Note: Sea Wolf charges a 3% credit card fee. This is not noted on their menu - it only appears in the POS right before paying. Kind of sketchy. Bathrooms - Single unisex room

I really enjoyed the kouign amann, as the bottom crust was nicely caramelized with flecks of vanilla bean. Both felt slightly on the smaller side, but maybe my appetite is on the bigger side.

    Cinnamon rolls…read more That's all you really need to know - get them, warm them up until they are buttery ooey gooey and eat. Return for seconds, bring some home. They also have mochi donuts and other pastries but I fell in love with the cinnamon rolls. Inside has plenty of seating and the staff is friendly. Prices are standard. Wish I lived closer!

    I visited Dahlia Bakery in downtown Seattle during a business trip from Florida, and it turned out…read moreto be a really memorable breakfast stop. I ordered an extra bacon and cheese sandwich on a toasted English muffin, and it was excellent. The muffin was perfectly toasted, the bacon was crisp and flavorful, and the cheese complemented everything really well. It was simple, fresh, and very satisfying to start the morning. The bakery itself has a very pleasant atmosphere. It feels warm, welcoming, and comfortable, making it a great place to sit down and enjoy a quiet breakfast in the city. To finish, I tried a slice of triple coconut cream pie to go, and it was absolutely heavenly. Rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced, it easily stood out as one of the highlights of the visit and something I won't forget anytime soon. Overall, Dahlia Bakery delivered great food, a relaxing atmosphere, and an outstanding dessert. Since I was only in Seattle briefly for business, I'm not sure when I'll be back, but I'm glad I had the chance to experience it.

    I've been to Temple Pastries a few times now, mostly for getting pastries and drinks to go. As the…read moreother reviews indicate, there can be very long lines depending on the time of day that you get there. There really has been no rhyme or reason on when there are long or short lines, but for your sake, hope that you get a short line. Inside, there is a decent amount of seating upstairs and downstairs (though only one bathroom), but this seems like it would be a great spot to meet with a friend or coworker or try to get some work done. I'm a big fan of the horchata brioche donut, so that's what I recommend you try. The pastries are reasonably priced and freshly made, and if you don't like things that are too sweet they will be perfect for you. I think the only complaint I've had is the drinks the barista has made can be very hit or miss, especially once with Chai I had. The barista was nice enough to remake the drink, but that's probably one area of improvement. Overall, this is a great little spot and I look forward to coming back again.

The breakfast sandwiches available after 0700 are savor-y and packed with flavor. I see issues with customer service and I get it. Sometimes, the person taking my order isn't very thrilled. The other day, when I asked to confirm a particular drink was mine (as the drink was prepared for to-go instead of here), I received a judgemental stare. But I come here often and have learned how busy they get. I get exhausted just watching them! and I am so grateful this cafe is here. As someone coming from another cafe-focused city, this was the first place that really made me feel like I was home. Stellar food, beverages, and ambience. Only other complaint is lack of outlets for charging.

I ordered a 16oz iced oat milk mocha and loved how perfectly the chocolate was incorporated into my drink! It tasted sweet and the coffee added the robust flavour I love in my mochas My boyfriend had never tried a Moroccan Fog before and he loved how sweet it was without him having to add sugar. He especially loved that it had just the right amount of mint flavoring without being toothpaste For breakfast, I ordered their fruit danish! I love that they had different options of fruit to pick from and I chose blueberry! The pastry was perfectly flaky and I loved how fresh the blueberry tasted. My boyfriend ordered the chocolate croissant because he was excited at the idea of the chocolate being piped through the croissant and also drizzled over the top, but it turns out the dark brown parts on top are just design and not more chocolate. Still, he was pleased with the amount of chocolate in the croissant and the bite I had was heavenly. The champagne cake caught my eye as I was ordering and I just had to try a bite, it was absolutely delicious and fresh. I loved how light the cake was and the layers of flavour through the whole dessert! I love how bright and airy the cafe is! My boyfriend and I were easily able to find seating by the windows and enjoyed the gorgeous view of the space needle and people watching as we shared breakfast. The staff here was also patient and welcoming. We'll definitely have to come back and try more of their pastries!!

    Finally made it out to Saint Bread and I loved it! Arrived around 9am on a Friday morning and…read morewaited ~30 min in line. All the pastries except for the regular butter croissant were available, and we were able to place an order for the kimchi focaccia and sakura swiss roll, which were slated to come out around 10am. Service was super friendly! I got the hojicha latte, the okonomiyaki frittata, black sesame cookie, kimchi focaccia, and sakura swiss roll. The hojicha latte was rich and earthy in the best way, and it went really well with the black sesame cookie, which had a great strong sesame flavor, and the texture was perfectly chewy! The focaccia was pillowy and chewy at the same - I could've eaten five of these on their own. The frittata was my least favorite item, but by no means am I saying that it's bad! I thought the sauces overpowered it a bit, and the frittata itself was a bit bland - I couldn't even tell it had sweet potato in it, but it was cooked really well. There was ample seating in the heated patio, but parking was a little confusing, though we got lucky with the small lot right next to the store. There were a lot of signs that said no parking along the street in front, but it seemed like a lot of cars were parked there?

    Cute little shop. Arrived a little after 10am on a Saturday and the line took us about 30 minutes…read moreto get through. Once ordered, the drinks came out pretty fast and so did my sandwich. I don't know if they rotate their pastries or if they just sold out of everything but only items on display case were the chocolate cookie, sesame cookie, the sakura chiffon roll, savory focaccia, apple cake and maybe one other item. I really was looking forward to trying a cardamom croissant or bun but they didn't have either available. My iced latte was alright. Nothing to go crazy over. The cherry foam for an additional $2.00 was very pretty but that's where it stopped at. Absolutely no cherry or sakura flavor. Disappointed. The sesame cookie had a great smell to it. The aroma of sesame was strong. The cookie had a nice crisp to the edge and a chewy center. The sesame taste wasn't as strong as the smell. The spicy chicken sandwich on special was not spicy at all. It was overwhelmingly sweet from the orange glaze/sauce on the kitchen. It was a decent sandwich and I definitely finished it. Just not something I would gravitate back to. I understand the reviews about how this place doesn't live up to some extra hype. It's decent, solid and a great option for the area but to go out of your way for and wait thirty minutes in line? Not really.
