    I stumbled upon blue corn bakery in downtown Glendale, Az. So grateful and lucky for me! Iv been twice, their sourdough jalapeno bread and quiche is to die for. You must try both- they are both melt in your mouth divine. The muffins, quiches and sourdough bread -all so beyond delicious. Adorable seating areas and tables, enough for everyone. They had hot sour dough bread as samples and it's so good, like melt in your mouth good, grandma good, I'm happy I'm here good and drive across town to get some --cuz it's that's good ! I also got a matcha muffin- which tasted divine. I could hear Angels sing, it had so much delicious matcha flavor. Red Devils food muffin, which almost brought tears to my eyes of how delicious it was. I had a lavender frosted cupcake, quite good but not like my other goodies. And my divine heavenly and fantastical delicious jalapeno cheddar sourdough. They slice bread there for you. Def try it this place out. Everything there is fluffy baked & delicious and magical. I'll prob go back tomorrow! *** I did go back and enjoyed matcha muffin. Amazing matcha taste- I loved it. I also got a delicious pistachio muffin that tasted incredible like a fluffy cake and very pistachio flavored. This is the type place you would drive for miles to get stuff, wait in line, park far away and just be so happy they didn't sell out of your favorites. They def have Angels baking in this kitchen.

    If you are ever within the Glendale area, please stop on by this amazing indigenous-owned small bakery and cafe! My boyfriend and I had this on our "cafe hopping" bucket list, as we saw this ranked number #24 for the "Top 100 Coffee Shops" within the US. We had a trip out to Phoenix for a concert (We are from Las Vegas), and remembered that this cafe was really close by. So, we had our expectations set high, and let me tell you, this place went above and beyond anything we expected. I want to start off by showing appreciation to all the people there. Shoutout to Trevor, Monique, and Natalie for delivering excellent service and being just the best. They were not only so kind, but funny and made the cafe feel like a second home. It was our first time in the bakery and within Phoenix in general, and they made us feel so welcomed. They offered samples, and even a free pastry or two. That type of service and kindness is rare, so I want to show my gratitude for their hospitality. Besides the great people there, they have AMAZING pastries and drinks. My boyfriend and I were quite speechless during our time there, as every item we sipped on or took a bite out of was perfection. For our drinks, my boyfriend ordered a Passionfruit Jasmine Tea and I got the Desert Pear refresher with Lotus Energy. The tea was divine, as it was herbal and sweet. The refresher? REFRESHING. It definitely gave me an energy boost, and fun fact: it's a healthier plant-based alternative! Now for the food we tried, and we did try a LOT, so buckle up. The Ube Muffin was our favorite. It was rich and sweet, so it felt like I was eating something out of my childhood as I myself am Filipino. The Chocolate Mousse Dome was heavenly decadent. The Cherry Tart was fruity and not too sweet which was amazing. The Spinach and Feta quiche was savory, which complimented all the sweet treats we got. Their in-house baked Sourdough bread is beyond delicious, which paired well with their soup of the day, which was Tomoto Bisque. The Caprese Panini was amazing, and it also paired greatly with the soup. Lastly, my other favorite, the Gluten-Free Honey Lavender Cheesecake. I am not at all a cheesecake person, but this was my favorite thing ever. It was light and subtle, yet sweet and refreshing. I could go on and on about the food, so we took some home for the road as well. Again, please visit this amazing bakery and cafe for yourself. There is amazing people, delicious food, and refreshing drinks waiting for you here. I personally can't wait to come back and try more things!!!

    The Protectors of the Salt River, after a Sunday Stinknet eradication effort were fed by Blue Corn. Some months later, visuting Glendale, we stopped in at the home Restaurant. It is mostly bakery, woth delicious baked goods, with a minor in other edibles, plus coffee. We got croissants and a muffin, carrot cake or zucchini. This is a very clean, very busy dining and baked goods buting space. We'll return

    I found this place on instagram originally and had it on my list to try! My husband and I finally made it in on a Saturday and had a great experience. We got the tomato basil quiche and lemon blueberry muffin to share (plus a couple coffee's) both were great! The blueberry Leon muffin was huge and bursting with fresh blueberry when you cut into it. Can't wait to try more flavors. Best part was the pastry chef was coming by adding to the case and he said hello & gave us a lavender crustless cheesecake he was finishing up. Wow - the whipped topping on the cheesecake was amazing. And customer service in general. We got to chat with him on our way out too. He is big on local and fresh ingredients which we appreciate. Definitely will be back!

    We made a last minute stop right before they closed, and it was such a great experience! The service was amazing, the vibes were on point, and we felt really welcomed. Definitely coming back Thank you for the great customer service! *noticed a lot of room to chill in case anyone is looking for a spot for some good coffee and study time

    About to try this bacon spinach quiche
    Astrid H.

    Actually found this lovely spot on Yelp and was amazed by the reviews so we had to stop in. Immediately we were welcomed coming into the door and caught the variety of sandwiches and quiches available in a glass container. The store is long, and there is seating area in front and then in the back past the counter where you pay. But as we waited in line (looked busy-ish for a Sunday midday) we continued to get more mouth watering sensations with the treats we kept seeing. We were offered fresh sourdough to try, which was SO GOOD, and so we knew we had to purchase a loaf to take home! But what we ended up trying was the bacon breakfast sandwich (2), and the spinach bacon quiche. Also ordered a hazelnut latter, a tuxedo cappuccino and a peppermint mocha cappuccino too! All of what we ordered was DELICIOUS! The quiche was probably the best quiche I've had, it was fluffy eggs on the inside, so nicely seasoned and the outside crust was perfectly crisp. We wished we'd ordered another to try but it was actually enough. The breakfast sandwich they toast for you and so that came out nice and hot too, the gooey cheese inside was so great, and they serve you hot sauce at the table and that just gave it an extra yummy little kick to the already amazing brek items we ordered. Lastly, we decided to try the biscoff cheesecake and unfortunately didn't even get a pic of it, it was soooo goooood! The take home sourdough was fantastic, just had it this morning with some eggs for brek and there's just something about it that just tasted amazing! We'll be back but you'd be finding yourself a regular go-to spot if you choose to come here. You'll definitely leave beyond satisfied! Thank you, Blue Corn Cafe & -Bakery!!

    This was really good too beautiful to eat

    Zucchini muffin, carrot cake, jalapeño cheddar bread
    Jessica A.

    We stopped into this bakery after brunch. The zucchini bread was so warm and fluffy. The carrot cake was absolutely amazing! The breads were so light and fluffy. My son had a red velvet cookie and he absolutely devoured it. The service was quick and great. We were able to meet the owner/chef. He was great and told us about each dish. I would love to see more colors in the bakery; the decor is mainly blue and white. Overall we had a great experience.

    I saw this place on google while looking for blue corn recipes little did I know it was a short drive away I went the same day. Such a quaint, calming little bakery with beautiful native art that makes the space feel warm and welcoming. The owner I believe his name was Alex was incredibly friendly and we even got to see fresh quiche being made while we were there. Everything we tried was delicious! From the sandwiches to the five different desserts we sampled. I can't wait to come back and try more of their blue corn specialties!

    The desserts were fresh and tasty. Plus they had a variety of coffee, sandwiches and muffins. I recommend and will revisit.

    Key lime dome and (warm) lemon blueberry muffin
    Sonya P.

    We can't rave enough out this little gem!! 10/10 RECOMMEND!! The warm lemon blueberry muffin had the best crunchy, chewy texture!!! I have never had a muffin so superb!! That slightly crunchy chewy texture will have me returning again and again!! My daughter got the key lime dome!!! Which had a chocolate crunch shell with amazing moose inside!!! So pretty, almost too pretty to dig into!! 10/10 recommend this little spot. (Coffee and matcha was where they fell short, but I'm not taking any stars off because bakery items are too die for!!! This is just room to grow and I have faith they will!!) Give them a try!! (Not pictured the Ube cheese cake tart!!! So fresh, creamy, texture again SPOT FREAKING ON, gourmet look!! How have wet lived near by so long and this is our first time trying out the bakery. Nick said they are opening other locations and even a quick grab and go. I'm so excited to have this little gem on my side of town to patronize!!!

    Gotta say - I have not spent much time in downtown Glendale. Was pleasantly surprised when I ran across Blue Corn Cafe. Stopped in to get a coffee, but ended up with a muffin and a coffee. The service is fast and fast friendly, the vibe is mellow and welcoming, and the baked good were delicious. The selection of baked goods was quite good - cookies, cakes, muffins, croissants, and macarons. I opted from a blueberry muffin - it was tall and full of blueberries. The outside was nicely crispy as well. Almond milk latte (iced) was good as well. The rest of the pastries looked really good, but no way was I getting through more than one.. N*joy!

    Visited Blue Corn Cafe & Bakery on a small trip to AZ. It was very cute and lots of options for seating. What really made it a 5 star review for us was the service!! Natalie was so kind and attentive and still checked in on us after we had already ordered at the counter. Another worker, did not catch his name unfortunately, also checked on us and offered us samples of their sourdough. For food and drinks they were great quality and very tasty. My favorites were the lemon blueberry muffin and the honey lavender matcha. Would definitely come back here next time we are in AZ !!

    Pastries and quiches!

    Do you deliver?

    Hello there, we do not have a delivery service because everything sells out at various times of the day. However, we will be open 7-days per week from 10-2 each day for your convenience 😊

    I do not see a pricing menu?

    You are correct. The menu changes daily, so there is no menu posted as different items are available each day.

I ordered a 12 oz salted caramel latte. To say I was unimpressed would be an understatement. The best way I can describe my first sip is depressing. I wasn't transported to my happy place like Happy Gilmore. Instead, I was greeted by what tasted like a cup of warm milk. There was no salted caramel flavor. There was no espresso flavor. Just milk and disappointment. I have my own espresso machine at home, but since I had an appointment around the corner, I decided to give this place a try. Unfortunately, the customer service wasn't much better than the latte. I wasn't greeted with a smile, thanked for my business, or told to have a nice day. The customer service was drier than the Arizona heat. For almost $6, I expected more than a cup of milk. I expected a latte that actually tasted like espresso and salted caramel. Maybe I'm the odd one out for expecting flavor when I order flavored coffee, but I don't think that's asking too much. I am always the first to say that just because a place is packed doesn't mean you're going to like it. Would I have gone back and given them another chance instead of writing this review? Absolutely. Unfortunately, I was on a tight schedule and couldn't. I'll stick to the barista skills I learned while working at a coffee shop and continue driving past this place knowing I won't be stopping in again or recommending it to others.

Patient too, as I made my selections. It was hard to choose what to get as the shop has so many appetizing sweet and savory options on the menu. I ended up getting a chocolate milkshake and a 6-pack of oatmeal cookies, including chocolate chip (no nuts), chocolate walnut, peanut butter dark chocolate cashew, dark chocolate pecan, dark chocolate cashew, and oatmeal raisin with pecans (they have a nut-free version too). The taste of everything was phenomenal. The shake had the perfect consistency and a strong chocolatey flavor, yet wasn't too sweet. And the cookies were nice and chewy and loaded with delicious chunks of nuts and chocolate. Honestly, I couldn't really tell the difference between the nut and chocolate combo flavors as the oatmeal was really the highlight. The peanut butter one and oatmeal raisin were more recognizable. ALL of them were amazing!

    I love 85 bakery cafe! This place is so delicious and addicting! I went to my first one in Las…read moreVegas and then realized we also had one in Arizona which is not too far from me so huge plus for me! I tried their Vietnamese coffee with the sea salt cold foam and I added brown sugar syrup to make it sweeter ( I like my coffee on the sweet side ) this was delicious! Loved it! You definitely taste the coffee but in a good way, if you love the taste of strong coffee you'll love this. When I first came here it was around 4PM and lots of their bakery items were sold out and they were done baking for the day since they close at 6PM. So my advice is to come when they open or around noon time to get more of a selection on bakery items. I went again the next day at noon and was able to score more bakery items to try! They were not as empty as it was my first time stopping by! Woohoo! I was able to get the Jalapeño cream cheese and wow yummy!! This one sells out quickly. I also got the salted butter bread and they seem to have this one more often but it also can sell out, it's also pretty good. I was able to get my hands on the choco bun and this has like a gooey chocolate fudge inside and it's almost like a molten lava cake!! I loved it honestly. I warmed mine up in the microwave when I got home for about 5-10 seconds and it was delicious. I got the sugared cream cheese brioche and this was also pretty darn good, this seems to sell out quickly! The Garlic cheese bread is so sooo good too! My son and hubby love this one. The chocolate hazelnut muffin is delicious as well! So many goodies here!! I LOVE their Thai Tea! I get this every time I come here. Their boba is freaking good too. Great flavors! If you have not tried out this bakery I definitely recommend trying it out for sure. The ambiance in here is pretty relaxed and a good vibe. You grab a tray when you walk in and start picking out your goodies! You can also just use the kiosk machine they have to get your drinks too!
