Ka C.

Very heart-warming small business. We happened to walk by this bakery when we were visiting Carlsbad. The lady at the front was super friendly. She told us about the style of the pastry, the story of the bakery and her journey in the U.S. Too bad we were full when we visited the bakery and we only tried one item. Will come back when we are in the area again.

Not a great cake to show up with and present to the bday boy.. The writing was done with a pretty shaky hand. Let alone the layers completely sliding and falling apart and cracking down the middle. Should've gone to Albertsons and saved $90

1. Marzipan balls. Covered with chocolate. Almond flavor. But def overwhelming sweet with covered chocolate 2. Almond croissant was hard and stale unfortunately. And filling on covered 1/4 of the croissant. 3. Chocolate chip cookie. Very dense with lots of milk chocolate chips on top. Overall disappointing bakery. Lady who helped me was direct and to the point. I asked for details about each prior to purchasing and explanations were minimal

Almond flavored. It's a giant Italian rainbow bar!!!

UPDATE on my review: I wrote the below review and the owner Pierre, wrote to make things right. I guess there are two sizes and by mistake, I was charged for the large slice. Wow, what a truly good businessman. He insisted on refunding me since they were out of more rainbow cakes for today. I wanted more to take home to Phoenix but next time. It is an amazing bakery. So delicious! Thank you Pierre!!! I swear I've left a review before and can't find it. I gave it a 5 star rating in the past even the last time I was here 4 months ago. Unfortunately, I give it 4 stars. Why? Same amazing flavors. Very friendly engaging staff. Same fantastic rainbow cake,,,,but,,,,HALF the size for same price! Of course I still got two slices but disappointed about the size. Will I be back next visit? Likely. It's an addiction I have with that almond flavored rainbow cake. It's like an Italian rainbow cookie on steroids! lol Give them a try. They have so much to offer. I got a half chocolate covered coconut macaroon along with my order. I'll keep you posted on how good it is.

Definitely recommend, great customer service too, reasonable price for custom cake, I'll be coming back to try the cheese danish and most likely have my daughter cake also made here

Allyson D.

Great pastries! I've come here a couple times and it's always hard to choose which pastry to get. This morning, I got the chocolate croissant and took it on my walk to the beach. The layers of the croissant were perfect, but what I liked most was the amount of chocolate inside!

Chocolate chip muffin..cheese danish..croissant & cinnamon roll..

This bakery is absolutely deliciouss. I went yesterday morning nice & early pastries were nice & fresh.. Service was great . We were greeted in a timely manner she was extremely helpful & answered our questions. It's a nice small bakery has outdoor seating to enjoy the delicious pastries. I look forward to being in the area soon to stop by again.

Wow! Ordered a 4 layer 10" cake for a birthday and it was so gorgeous and delicious! The cake was dense and moist and the icing was yummy- not too sugary sweet. It was a hit! And ready on time for pickup!

My daughter was turning 17 and wanted more than anything to have a heart-shaped cake with "Dancing Queen Young and Sweet Only 17" on it. Carlsbad Bakery was so accommodating with my request for blue icing, and very reasonably priced! The cake tasted good and the mango buttercream filling was delicious. I am so grateful to have found this little gem of a bakery so close to home.

Okay Carlsbad Danish Bakery is a small little place in the Arcade in Carlsbad Village. It's right there but in a corner you wouldn't notice it. The service is very European. I've had many of the items. The cupcakes admittedly are huge but not my favorite. Everything else is perfection. I have even ordered a custom cake (as a congrats/prank) here with a photo and writing and it came out cute. They let me pick fillings and colors. There is a cute little patio. They also serve coffee/lattes. Parking is free and the lot is steps away to the door.

Takeshi H.

There are a lot of bakeries around Carlsbad but let's cut to the chase as to which is the best...it's the Carlsbad Bakery hands down. Located in a small strip mall off the main road of Carlsbad Village Drive in downtown Carlsbad this European bakery is as staple of the community for the past 40 years. This is no frills ambience as when you walk through the door you are greeted by friendly service and the delightful aroma of danish pastries and other sweets. For first timers try their cinnamon custard coffee cake. It's an actual item that doesn't just say cinnamon but has a very strong presence and makes for a great treat any time of the day as flavorful and dense. Be sure to try it before it sells out for the day.

Giana B.

Ordered the cake for my birthday and it was not only delicious but also just so pleasing to look at, the owner was soooo nice and even went out of her way to carry it to my car! She handled it with such care, I'll definitely be recommending this place AND I'll definitely be coming back for seconds

The people at the Danish bakery are so nice and accommodating! I asked for a "savory bread" For a dinner party I was going to have and they offered me this cheesy, jalapeño, and black olive bread. It sounds good however; I don't eat cheese - so they offered to make one without the cheese!! So nice!!

Ordered a custom birthday cake for my daughter and everything turned out wonderfully. I shared a Pinterest photo of what I had in mind and they were glad to recreate it. It ended up being just as cute as the inspiration photo and more important- it was delicious!!! Went for vanilla cake with buttercream frosting and Bavarian vanilla filling.

After a mediocre brunch at a nearby restaurant I saw this "Danish" bakery and thought...Great! At least I'll get a good "Danish" pastry. Being that I've been to Solvang, I was looking forward to yumminess. Well trap door! It was literally a Danish shop a place that made danishes and cakes. And the danishes they did have behind the glass looked dry. Needless to say I walked out without my so desired "Danish" pastry. read more

I ordered the carrot cake with cream cheese frosting for my wife's birthday and was NOT disappointed. The cake was very moist, not overly sweet and the toasted coconut flakes sprinkled on the sides were a perfect addition I am definitely coming back for more birthday cakes going forward. I noticed from a sign on the door that they do photo cakes. Had I asked about that beforehand, I would have ordered it, oh well, next time.... Lastly the bakers there are very nice, they take care of you and ensure your order is taped strategically not to smash your cake on the way home. Keep up the good work!!

They had a mishap with their printer, so the cake I had ordered wasn't ready at the time requested. I wasn't upset though. Online orders anywhere for that matter, don't always go as planned (thankfully I had plenty of time before the party). They were super nice, and gave me a free cupcake. My daughter loved her cake, and it was delicious! The cupcake too! I will definitely be back. All their pastries looked so good.

This is the best bakery in Carlsbad again. There are some others that have a few great things, but this place rocketed past them when I wasn't looking. The old recipes are back and the cakes are the best in the area. I'd stopped coming to this place for a while, but now I'm trying to find excuses to go back. My parents are the ones who got me back on the "Danish Bakery" wagon, they got me the single best cake for my birthday I'd had since I was in my teens at the end of 2020. Somehow that cake was topped by the cake I had custom made for my daughter there recently for her birthday. It was worth every penny, it was a 6 layer rainbow cake (pictured) that was like a double cake. She just turned 4 and I've never seen her eyes get as big as when I put that giant slice of rainbow cake in front of her eyes. Definitely priceless. read more

If you are looking for baking goods, a place to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee, and order a cake this is the place to go. Their cheese danish are delightful. I ordered a chocolate birthday cake with strawberry filling and it was AMAZING. The chocolate cake was one of the best I've had! it was moist, spongy and it had a great chocolate taste. The strawberry filling had the right amount of sweetness and you can actually see pieces of strawberries. The buttercream was heavenly, it was soft and delicious. Having all of these layers put together was delightful! The amount of sweetness wasn't overpowering. Finally the design I asked for was a ombré rosette and it was gorgeous! I would definitely order another birthday cake and purchase some bake goods. read more

The only concern we had was that one of our family members waited quite a while for his meal, only to be told much later that they had run out of the crab. It seemed like there may have been some miscommunication between the kitchen and the waitstaff, which unfortunately led to a longer wait than necessary. While these things can happen during a busy brunch service, earlier communication would have made for a much better experience.

The restaurant is small, cozy, welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. It isn't well suited for larger parties as most tables are tables for 2 unless tables are pushed together. They do have patio seating and heaters outside, but it didn't appeal to me being so close to the street/loud traffic. Gabriel checked us in, seated us, took our order, served our food and waited on us for majority of our visit, I would give him 10 stars just on his impeccable service. The food though? The food was AMAZING!! Everything we ordered was the best we have ever had anywhere. The buns were very kawaii (and we ordered ever single one to try). The fillings were savory, but we also loved their seasonal panda bun with ube filling while the kids preferred the nutella bunny. Best chicken karaage we've had by far, the coating almost tasted like it was rolled in kinako powder. The ramen broth was "chef's kiss" with so much flavors, the crab rangoon were jumbo and the filling was delicious, but the chicken katsu was also the best we have had anywhere (including Hawaii). The breading was just top tier crunchy while the chicken was thick and juicy. There isn't one bad thing I could say about this place, from the service to the food, I would make the drive out here again. Super duper, highly recommend, don't sleep on this little place, you'll regret it!

It was a Saturday afternoon and we were able to sit right away at some high tops near the bar. I ordered a burger and my husband got the wings. We loved the food! He also got a flight of 4 beers to give everything a try since we are visiting and have never been here. The burger was pretty big and very flavorful, I left feeling very full. It also came with fries that were seasoned well and weren't soggy. We came back at the end of our trip to get a case of the beer to bring home with us, that's how much my husband liked it.

Unfortunately, after thinking it over, I still feel the same way. Our family decided to come to Karl Strauss Brewery for dinner since it was close by. We were looking forward to relaxing and enjoying a meal after a fun day at the park. When we arrived, the hostess was very friendly and got us seated quickly, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, that's where our positive experience ended. The restaurant was extremely busy, and it took quite a while before our server came to greet us. We were able to order waters, but even those took a long time to arrive. After another long wait, we finally ordered our appetizers. Our original server, who I believe said her name was Noemi or Naomi, came across as overwhelmed, stressed, and like she didn't enjoy her job. While I understand restaurants get busy, her attitude made us feel like we were an inconvenience. She wasn't very attentive, especially to our kids, who had been at Legoland all day and were extremely hungry. She never came back to take their food order, and we found ourselves waiting longer and longer without any communication. Eventually, another server took over our table. She was incredibly kind, friendly, and apologetic. We explained that we had already been waiting a long time and just wanted to place our food order to go so we could get our hungry kids back to the hotel. She handled the situation professionally and did her best to help, which we truly appreciated. If you're dining with young children, I'd keep in mind that service may not be the best fit if your family needs an attentive server or timely service. Waiting extended periods without updates can be especially difficult for tired, hungry kids. It's disappointing because the restaurant itself seemed nice, and the hostess and second server were both wonderful. Unfortunately, the experience with our original server left a bad impression. While I understand busy nights happen, the lack of attentiveness and communication made for a frustrating experience, and because of that, I don't think we'll be returning.

Ordered the Small Boston White Clam Chowder ($6.99), 3 Piece Fish & Chips with fries ($21.99), and the Sea Bass Plate ($25.99) which came with two sides - opted for Spanish rice and black beans. The clam chowder was just okay and nothing particularly special. The sea bass with garlic butter was a little bland and definitely needed some hot sauce or tartar sauce for extra flavor. The Spanish rice also tasted like it had been sitting out for a while and was a little dry. I did appreciate that the black beans came topped with some cheese and were served in a little tostada bowl - a nice touch. The fish and chips were hands down the best thing we ordered. The fish had a super crispy batter and the fries were crispy as well. Definitely the standout of the meal. Pelly's is located in a shared plaza with Ralphs, so there are plenty of parking spaces available. Both indoor and outdoor seating and it's a counter-service setup where you order at the counter and they'll bring the food out to your table.

I recently had the pleasure of trying the cupcakes and croissants from Carlsbad Danish Bakery. The cupcakes were beautifully decorated and had a perfect balance of sweetness. Each bite was moist and flavorful, and the variety of flavors offered was impressive. As for the croissants, they were flaky and buttery, with a satisfying crunch in every bite. Whether enjoyed as a breakfast pastry or a midday snack, they were undeniably scrumptious. The overall experience was elevated by the friendly staff. Definitely, we will be back. read more

It was basically just whipped bananas with chocolate and walnuts in it. Raw ice cream, if you will.

Because you asked, I'll tell you: One of the reasons why I don't like ice cream is because it's like eating cold mucus. There, I said it! The only exception is if the ice cream has "stuff" in it to give it some texture and crunch. Some of the gelato flavors at GelatoLove had stuff in them, which was nice to see. I almost got a berry cheesecake job, but it was too smooth. Mostly, this gelato place is for smooth mouth-feel lovers, as GelatoLove prides itself on the smoothness of their gelato. They will give you samples, so feel free to try out some flavors that sound intriguing. I tried a spicy chocolate, which was weird and wonderful. There are some nice seating options in the shop. But there are also lots of places to sit and eat your gelato outdoors, whether it's the tables right outside of the entrance, or the many places to sit in Carlsbad Village Faire, where GelatoLove is located.
