Coffee was good. Service was good as well. Didn't get to ask if they make all those baked goods in house. Didn't get to try any though.

The dollar sign on this listing needs to be updated to $$$. They don't have prices on the pastries and I got a slice of specialty bread, empanada, a SMALL wrap and a monkey bar. With 2 coffees it was just under $45. Whaaatt? I know times are hard, I'm just really disappointed that I feel like I was pressured into buying all of that without knowing the prices. I didn't think I had to ask but I had no expectation that a soft taco size, slightly undercooked breakfast wrap would run me just under $12! Sorry Gordys, we out read more

Gordy's Bakery was a sweet treat that we found via Yelp while on vacation in September of 2019....yes, before Covid. Luckily we were still traveling just before the world closed. We loved the staff; they greeted us with a glorious morning smile. It smelled delicious when you walked in. Their coffee and pastries were outstanding. The place was adorable. Super inviting. Very clean. I would highly recommend this place. I am surprised I forgot to Yelp this one as we talked about it for days. Actually I ordered a hot tea and my husband ordered a latte. Parking was easy breezy. The locals were even kind when they heard me order; they asked me if I was from Texas; lol! I didn't think I had an accent. Hee hee read more

I have been coming here for years. I love their sausage roll. I never really looked at their prices until today. I paid $12 for a muffin sized ham and cheese quiche. Good, but not even close to $12 good!!!! read more

Cute coffee shop with a large variety of bakery and sandwich items to chose from. My sister and I ordered an iced mocha with soy milk, chai latte with oat milk and a coffee cake (they offer to heat up the coffee cake, which made it taste even more delicious)! Although their menu doesn't say which milk alternatives they offer and the extra price you pay for it, they do have soy and oat options. The coffee is on the pricier side (I'd give 4.5 stars if I could), but well worth it if you're looking for something early in the morning and looking for a snack as well. Definitely recommend this place to try. read more

Dear Yelp Community, Where have I been? This venue has been here for years, and I just now find it when searching for a bakery in North County. If you arrive early, you will be rewarded with a full display of their sweet and savory treats (see photographs). I enjoyed a coffee paired with a more healthy option, like a muffin-type (but this venue has its own name for these). Some seating inside and outside, friendly staff early morning, but too bad this bakery comes right out into commercial shopping center parking. Enjoy! Sincerely, Anna read more

Great pastries and fun ambiance! You feel comfortable right when you walk in and it makes for a fun coffee run.

I've been a regular here for many years. The new owners have exponentially up-leveled the quality of coffee, service and for me most importantly the baked goods and sandwiches! Thoroughly enjoying the Italian sandwich right now. Easily one of the best sandwiches in Encinitas! read more

Loved it when Gordy still owned it- the goods are not as good- sometimes the bars and Big Bangs have been stale! I've complained about the coffee a few times but they deny it's different- but it is. read more

I have been coming to Gordy's for about 2 years. Quality espresso! Of their pastry items, the ham & cheese quiche cup is my favorite. Everything is made in house & the selection of pastry options are plentiful. Anthony (main barista) makes the best drinks and is a delight to talk too! read more

Yummm!!! Best coffee in Encinitas! Bold, but not too bold. Flavorful, creamy and subtle. Amazing coffee and got to meet the owner today Bill, super cool dude local Surfer and Dad. Really amazing family owned business. Just wish I lived closer to this location! Definitely stopping by every time I'm in town. Thank you Gordy's Coffee!!!! You made my day :-) read more

A colleague and I stopped in here for some coffee, tea, a bacon scone and a bar. Inside is small but they have ample outdoor seating which is what you want in North County. The tea and coffee were excellent. I had a latte and it was exactly what you want. My colleague got the bacon scone and said that while it was little weak on the bacon taste, it was lighter and fluffier than a scone traditionally which was a positive. Lastly, I got a Monkey Bar which is a dense bar with bananas and chocolate chips and it was truly fantastic. Locally owned and operated right in Encinitas. Go check them out next time you want to go to Starbucks. read more

Meh, I don't know about this place. I do like all the bakery options but here's the deal... Personnel: Front of the house folks: 3.5/5 Back of the house folks: 2/5 -The female owner gets a 1 and the male owner gets a 4. The lady appears to not love her job and always has a scowl on her face. When you try to engage with her she just stares at you and doesn't even say hello. Maybe she's deaf? If so, I apologize for the statement. The guy always seems happy and engages with you. You can tell he appreciates his customers, his goods, and his business. The goods: Cheddar and bacon scone: 2.5/5 -It's dry, it's dry, it's dry. Did I mention it's dry? Snickerdoodle cookie: 3/5 - This is a hit or miss as some days it's a four and other days it's a two. The days it's a two it's very dry and flavorless. The days it's a four it's moist and you can taste the actual cinnamon and sugar in it. Peanut butter cookie: 2/5 - I have tried the peanut butter cookie about a dozen times because it's my favorite type of cookie and I keep thinking it will be better than the last. However, this has been wrong every single time. Once I get my hopes up that it'll taste different, I'm let down once again. It's either dry or semi moist. You can tell that peanut butter is definitely manufactured in a large factory as the it tastes like it came out of a medicine cabinet from a 5 gallon drum. Oatmeal raisin cookie: 4.5/5 -The bakers definitely have this one nailed down to the T. It is a great combination of oats, raisins, cinnamon and a nice moist and chewy cookie. I just wish they could do this to their other cookies. Plonk: 4/5 -Moist, flavorful, dense, and you can taste all the flavors in this. No wonder it's a favorite amongst the locals and many have it on repeat. Will I continue to come here? Ugh, I'm not sure. I like the local business part but my favorite cookie tastes horrible and one of the owners doesn't appreciate her customers. I'm pretty sure you need customers to run a business??? I might give it another try to test the waters. In the meantime, give this place a shot and let me know what you think! read more

My husband and I have frequented Gordy's over the years as one of our favorite bakeries in North County. Sadly, ever since Gordy left and management has changed, the quality has drastically diminished. All of our favorite Gordy's staples have either left the menu entirely or don't even come close to what they used to be. We've given this place a chance a few times since ownership changed, with every visit leaving us more and more disappointed. I decided again today to give it another shot and was sad to see a display case full of baked items that did not appear fresh -- my first thought when seeing this was to move on, but I figured I was already there and I should just give it another try. The B Bar that I had loved so much was no longer an option so I ordered an Apple Turnover, a Monkey Bar for my husband and a couple of cookies. The turnover was soggy, dense, a bit sour, and lacking flavor. My husband said his Monkey Bar was flat, doughy, and simply didn't resemble the Monkey Bars he'd always had before. And the cookies were just okay. It's safe to say we will no longer be returning to Gordy's, but wish them the best of luck. read more

Man, these people make a mean traditional English Scone! I went all English on this visit to Gordy's and ordered an Earl Grey Tea and a traditional English Currant Scone, as seen on television apparently. The Earl Grey was what I expected with its distinctive citrus flavor and mild mangold petals flavor. It was dark and full bodied. The scone was terrific. The density was just right: dense enough that it was firm, but moist enough that it was easy to eat and pull apart. The currants were nice as well. They were not to hard, and still provided a bit of a chew. They offered a mild sweetness that went well with the breading of the scone. They liked popped in the mouth as I encountered them in every bite. They offer free WiFi, but you need to ask for the password. They some seating inside and a lot outside. They offer a wide range of baked goods, including a variety of bars, plonks, cookies, small pies, muffins, and short breads. The Brits sure know how to make a scone... read more

Cute little bakery in Encinitas with some killer & unique muffins aka plonks! They also offer a variety of other baked goodies like scones, sweet bars and meet pies. The decor of this coffee shop/bakery is a bit peculiar, bright colored walls with some random posters. I wouldn't call it the space inside cozy, there are just a few seats and tables. The most of the seating space is outdoors. At first, i wanted to get a scone but then i laid my eyes on all these healthy style muffins and i forgot all about the scone. Plonks are baked with all kinds of goodies like nuts, berries, oats, bran, honey and taste simply fantastic to the last crumb! Perfect consistency, soft and chewy with loads of nuts and a hint of cinnamon. I've tried the original kind and there are a few other varieties to pick from. read more

I've never really yearned for baked goods, but Gordy's may have just made a believer out of me. Their "Plonks" are what would happen if an oatmeal cookie and a muffin met on Tinder, had a few drinks, and threw caution to the wind. Trust me though, it's a much more beautiful thing than the visual I just gave you. I went with the Big Bang which was like a bran muffin with blueberries only way better than either of those things are solo. Honestly, I can't say I've ever been so satisfied with something that sounds as simple as this. Probably not going to be able to wait till fall to try the pumpkin flavored one. The shop itself it small, but cute with all sorts of cool stuff on the wall. There's not much of a patio to sit at for while, but if you're coming here it's for a to-go plonk, maybe a coffee, and to get on with your day. Overall, the perfect pit stop in you're in this shopping center. read more

Went here on a whim today and was not disappointed. Had a great chat with the barista Daniel. Ordered a simple latte and was surprised at how good it was. I've been trying to sample more coffee across North County, and whoever they source the beans from is amazing. I do have one complaint but, as an aficionado of baked goods as well as a food service worker myself: the price of the pastries. They were super expensive. It was about $40 for the coffee and four baked goods. However, as mentioned, I understand the cost that comes with good, handmade pastries and baked foods. When you come here, you need to be willing to just go for it. The food was amazing and the cost reflects it. I'll definitely stop by again and try more, because who doesn't love the occasional spoil yourself kind of day? read more

What a great find. Wide selection of sweet and savory. Went with savory today. Had the ham and cheese croissant and the sausage and egg empanada. Both were delicious and filling. read more

Good coffee, good pastry's that being said The girl who was works up front this morning was unpleasant and rude. Been there before and never had any negative interactions. This morning it was impressionable enough for me not to return for at least a good while. Encinitas is such a hub for coffee shops I think you really need to have a minimum decent coffee, pasty's and good customer service. I'm sure if you go here you'll be fine as for me I'll gladly go to one of many other locations, this would definitely be a harder choice if I didn't feel like the place was a tad bit on the pricier side which isn't Over the top expensive but i say it does lack a little value. Recommendation: If you are a big fan of croissants, go to "Coffee coffee" they literally have the best croissants in the world, you have never had a croissant like this, they get them delivered every morning from a real French bakery also located in Encinitas "Isabelle briens French pastry cafe". read more

I love coming to this coffee place they have great coffee and amazing bakery. They added more to their menu besides the toast there is also omelette's. Definitely will try it next time read more

Gordy's Bakery - Large Carmel Latte and Perfect Pear - Bakeries Near Me - Encinitas, California

It's just ok. I've been here twice now. First time had a chai latte which was ok. Tried the croissant, snickerdoodle and monkey bread and again it was ok, nothing memorable. Today I got an iced latte and it tasted burnt, bitter. I paid over $10 for a latte and cookie, that's similar to what I pay at lofty for an amazing matcha latte and croissant. I felt ripped off for the quality I got here. I don't mind paying $10 or $15 for a latte and treat but do mine when the quality is not worth it which was the case for this place. read more

There is a reason there are no prices displayed for their bakery goods. They are stupidly overpriced. If the quality was there i would have no problem paying the highest prices for baked goods in the area but just not that good. All the high reviews must be for their coffee because i tried several things none i would ever buy again. Wont be back read more

Wow. Just took one bite of the vegetarian sausage roll and had to review...this tastes like so many incredible flavors -- reminiscent most glaringly of a rich, fluffy thanksgiving stuffing. This place has won my heart over in a single bite. Will keep you updated on the monkey bar and bran muffin. read more

Disgusting place.. cheap coffee, banana bread tastes nothing like banana bread, ordered it warmed up, got it warm on the edges, cold in the middle. They dont even have a trash can in the store, you'd have to to outside to throw ur napkins.

AMAZING baked goods - can't choose just one because they have so many options depending on what mood you are in. Always taste better post-workout because they are dense and full of oats, nuts, and goodness. Faves: Plonk, lunchlady, sausage roll. Love Gordy's! read more

Gordy's Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Encinitas, California

My issue really was everything was way too dense for me, the plonk, the muffins, scones and even the coffee cake. It was like the heaviest pastries I've ever had, and I'm assuming they're somewhat healthy but still, my idea of what fresh baked goods are did not align with Gordy's unfortunately. The people working were so nice, but I just didn't care for the products on offer, just too dense for me and crumbly, no structural integrity at all. The coffee cake was the best of what I got but even that wasn't that great, nor was the cappuccino. Some people seem to like it but it just didn't do it for me. read more

Love the chai lattes and ham/cheese croissants. Hidden gem! Nice to sit and browse the books as well.

I LOVE this place! Family run business, friendly, delicious baked goods, plus amazing fresh menu for lunch, and of course Great coffee and Espresso! I always get their iced americano! I Highly Highly recommend! read more

I'm, actually surprised this place has so many good reviews. particularly those involving the bacon scone and the sausage roll. In the case of the latter, it was meh in flavor. Still, it was awesome compared to the bacon scone, which had so little in the way of bacon I could hardly taste it. Maybe the other stuff is amazing, but I'm not really up for that gamble. read more
