My dear friend Russ talks continually about this amazing bakery, the owner Jeff and his wife, what stellar staff they have and of course... The pastries!!! Well I've been in there a few times now and I understand everything Russ is saying, from the amazing delicious pastries to the warm and friendly owners and staff. I've loved everything I e eaten at this place! So I ran in with my husband a few days ago to order a birthday cake for Russ (his favorite bakery). Jeff and I had a great time ordering pastries to go and of course... ordering the burnt almond cake for the celebration a few days away. Jeff got a piece of the most dense/ingredient filled Quiche. Every bite was a taste bud delight and it was very filling! Good quality. No smoking and an excellent breakfast decision. We ordered some coffee cake and a cinnamon roll for others at home and I got a jelly roll that was this beautiful, fluffy, perfectly cooked roll with a bit schmear of a cream cheese/butter icing on top and the apricot jam they crowned it with was stellar! OMG. I'm going back for another one of those. That was an incredible decision. Pictures next visit I promise!!! The restaurant is clean and airy indoors and they have a beautiful seating area with tables and umbrellas outside. I was marveling at the giant leggos and giant games for kids to entertain themselves at while parents sip coffee, tea or another drink and enjoy a leisurely pastry and conversation to make their day special. All in all this place is as amazing as Russ said and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a special experience with food, family and joy. read more

This was my first time visiting the new location for Lawson Bakery in Morgan Hill, and I have to say they absolutely did not disappoint. We drove over 20 miles just to pick up a birthday cake for my son because we have been longtime customers ever since their older location on the other side of Morgan Hill. Their cakes have always been amazing, full of flavor, fresh, moist, and very reasonably priced for the quality you get. While we were there, I decided to try their coffee and I believe the espresso was Tilly brand, and wow it was excellent. I also had one of their cinnamon rolls and it was honestly to die for. Soft, fresh, full of flavor, and one of the best pastries I've had in a long time. What really made the experience even better was the staff. Everyone was super nice, polite, welcoming, and very professional. You can tell they truly care about their customers. Their boss should definitely give them a raise because great customer service like that is hard to find nowadays. If you are ever in the Morgan Hill area and looking for amazing pastries, great coffee, or a delicious birthday cake, look no further. Highly recommend Lawson Bakery! I would have took pictures, but my battery was dead.But next time for sure , I will read more

Lawson's Bakery in Morgan Hill was definitely busy, which is expected for Mother's Day weekend. It was super loud inside and they told us the wait would be about 20 minutes, but we ended up waiting well over that. Besides the longer wait time, the experience was still good overall. The ladies working there were very nice and helpful. I ordered 8 breakfast burritos for my family and we sat outside on the patio. When we first sat down, the table was dirty and I accidentally got water on myself, but one of the girls quickly came outside and cleaned the table for us right away, which I appreciated. She even had the chef come sweep the area, so they definitely tried to make things right and were attentive to customer service. The patio area was actually really nice with plenty of seating and a family-friendly atmosphere. They even had games outside for kids like Connect 4 and Legos, which was a nice touch for families waiting or eating outside. The inside was packed, but the outdoor seating made it more enjoyable. We ordered the Breakfast Burrito with scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, country potatoes, scallions, and cheddar cheese in a whole wheat tortilla. The food was delicious and the burritos were packed with ingredients and very filling. Overall, despite the long wait and noise level, I'd still come back because the staff was kind and the food was worth it. read more

Born with a silver spoon in their mouth, very entitled condescending attitudes. Pictures speak volumes you guys can see for yourself how she came up on me. She approached me aggressively outside of work lmao but pretends to be proper at work behind the counter. Looks can be deceiving. Maybe she licks her pastries like Ariana Grande smh take a look at the pictures. read more

We stopped by for drinks after dinner now that Lawson's Bakery is open Thursday-Saturday 5pm-9pm. Their pastries look so delicious. I now know where I can buy cakes for parties. They have burnt almond cake and carrot cake. Our family favorites. I ordered the Spicy Mango Margarita which was just the right amount of spicy and refreshing. Hubby ordered the Honey Bee, which was just the richer amount of sweet and yummy. Our server was friendly and gave us good recommendations. The ambiance was inviting. Both indoors and outdoor seating. Will be back to try the other pastries and drinks. read more

First time to this new location as I use to go to the other one years ago. Great spot and easy to get in and out. I had some time on my hands so figured I'd come by and glad I did. I was in the mood for pancakes and eggs but also love a good breakfast burrito. Figured I could order both and eat the burrito later. The pancake and eggs by far the best I've had in a while. The texture and taste were unbelievable. Maybe I've just never had good pancakes but this is my now favorite! The eggs also were great! Bravo to this place for making amazing pancakes! The breakfast burrito I was able to eat a bit and finished later in the day. Very well recommended but the pancakes for me are the star of the show! I'm excited I found a place like lawsons bc great atmosphere whether it's just to relax or eat a nice meal. Looking forward to coming back for lunch and trying their menu! Highly recommend! read more

I have been a long time customer, I have always had a good experience. I like their cookies and the food items. Most recently I had the veggie sandwich, very good. Coffee here is also good. I've had the cakes here, they are good. I just feel that the cakes are very sweet. I've had their pumpkin pie during Thanksgiving and I do enjoy that. Overall I'm glad we have this bakery in town and I like the new location even though parking is a little difficult. The bakery has a decent amount of seating and outdoor seating also. The inside is clean and modern. Everyone working there has always been helpful and friendly to me. I wish they would bring back the savory muffin, it was my favorite. read more

Came in to buy a cake. The lady asked if I wanted anything written on it. It's for a birthday, so I said "Happy Birthday" would be great. Never did she mention that it costs $2 for it to be written. It wasn't listed on the cake price sheet. I've never been charged for that at other bakeries. Who does that? -- It's honestly absurd. By the time I figured it out, it was too late. I wish she would've been transparent. On top of that, it took 15mins for it to be written. That's pretty long, considering it was a weekday afternoon. No "thank you for waiting" either. Customer service these days. The good news is that the cake was good. I got red velvet and it had nice texture and taste. read more

I have always loved Lawson's but today the staff members went above and beyond for me Charlie and Sam were amazing, so sweet, and helped me make my gender reveal happen the same day I got my results back! Thank you so much girls! You made today so special! read more

Was in Morgan Hill today and stopped in at Lawson's Bakery to try their beignets, which I'd heard were very good. The bakery is on Monterey Highway in front of a townhouse complex and easy to miss. I had no trouble finding a parking spot, but it was a quiet Saturday evening. Other reviews mention parking can be challenging during peak hours. There was only one person behind the counter. She was very nice and had things under control. I was concerned because there were no beignets in the glass case with the pastries, but she explained they make them fresh to order and they take about ten minutes. Each order consists of 10 small beignets. While I was waiting I ordered a pumpkin chocolate chip scone. The woman behind the counter (should have got her name) was kind enough to give me an extra scone for free. It was sweet and delicious. I waited until I got home to try the beignets (okay I had one in the car). They came with a little container of caramel for dipping. Yum, so good. They are very light and rolled in sugar. Lawson's Bakery also has coffee and savory items like breakfast burritos, veggie quiche, grilled artichokes, and more. Their sweets include cakes, cupcakes, cheesecake bars, bread pudding, scones, lemon bars, and much more. It's a cute bakery with indoor and outdoor seating. If I lived in Morgan Hill I would be there often. read more

I love Lawsons bakery! We order cakes from them often and they are always beautiful and delicious! Our most recent cake was a little bit of a custom cake and ordered during a very busy time. But, they did it and it was perfect! It was a Mama Mia themed cake for my daughter's 17th birthday. She absolutely loved it! Thank you Lawson's!!! read more

Great Saturday brunch location & truly a gem establishment for Morgan Hill. The Paleo breakfast bowl was attractively displayed & tasty. A "seasonal jelly roll" with peach & nectarine filling (looking like a cinnamon roll) was decadent and phenomenal!!! Bakery items NEVER disappoint. Service is with a smile, quick and food delivered to the table is fast. A nice clean environment for indoor and outdoor dining. read more

The good: I met up with friends here and we all brought our toddlers. It was so toddler friendly! There were coloring books and crayons, games, chalk on the wall, and lawn games outside in their large outdoor patio space. I loved their seasonal drink options and their pastries were stupendous. I got two cookies (s'mores cookie and a gingersnap) and the flavors were balanced and the texture was so chewy and nice. It was also very affordable! The interior is modern and casual with high ceilings, self-serve napkins/utensils and a lot of natural lighting. The bad: It smelled like cow manure outside. My coffee was too sweet. The interesting: They're located in an apartment complex so there were limited parking spots. read more

Wow, this was so disappointing. The chicken sandwich was $16 and was basically all lettuce. I honestly thought it was a joke when it came out. I even found a review from a couple years ago where the sandwich looked completely normal, so I'm not sure what happened, but this should not be served for that price. The avocado on the toast was unripe, and the portion itself felt pretty sad for what it cost. Not pictured is the banana cream latte made with their "house-made syrup," which tasted exactly like a banana laffy taffy. I have a hard time believing it was actually made in house. Overall, the whole experience was a letdown and the quality just didn't come close to matching the prices. Staff was not exactly friendly either read more

*** Stellar Gem *** I was actually jealous of the staff. Charlie switched off with the employee on their breaks eating the food. I wish I could eat like that daily. They are so lucky. My most searched food item is breakfast burrito. I am usually disappointed when I do order them but not this time. It was delicious to the point that we needed to go order another (2nd time was veggie burrito). The pancakes were perfectly fluffy with a nice crispy texture. Would have ordered more but didn't want to overeat. The veggie burrito had elevated tasting veggies in it. Definitely tomatoes, Brussels sprouts, egg whites, etc. Housemade salsa was in containers at the front. It is brilliant because you don't have people filling a small plastic container only to make a mess. Grab what you need. I was bummed that we didn't get to pick up some burnt almond cake on the way back. Bread pudding and beignets looked tempting but only one stomach. Too many sweets during the holidays. Definitely recommend for food with elevated flavors. read more

We have been wanting to check out Lawson's Bakery 's new location ever since they moved there months ago. The new location is in a nice area off Monterey Road in Morgan Hill infront of a new townhomes area. Parking is accessible either in the small parking lot or street parking. There are plenty of outdoor tables and a few picnic tables in the nice patio area. The bakery looks inviting and nice inside. Simple modern decor with a few tables available for dine in. The staff was friendly and accommodating. There are displays of some delectable pastries and baked goods in the front counter area. We ordered fried mac and cheese bites, chicken wings, the wedge salad, the honey bee cocktail and a Chardonnay glass. The food was delicious and flavorful. Our drinks were refreshing. Everything was priced modestly reasonable. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Lawson's Bakery. We will be back soon to try their pastries, other appetizers and other drinks. read more

Delicious iced lavender matcha with honey - so good!! I was sad that they were out of slices of their burnt almond layer cake (you could buy a whole cake and believe me I was totally tempted!), and decided to try the iced matcha - so glad I did!

Fabulous food and great staff! Best breakfast burrito ever!!! Their pastries are delicious, their food is fresh and always hot.

They relocated to a corner spot around the new neighborhood. Plenty of seating outside and inside. The workers were very nice as well. I haven't tried the coffee yet but the pastries are so good! I got the butterscotch cheesecake bar before and it's so sweet but sooooo good. This time I got the cherry greek yogurt danish and was pleasantly surprised! I typically don't like anything with cherries but I was a fan of this. read more

Cute little bakery/eatery in Morgan Hill hidden in a residential area. I got a breakfast burrito with bacon. It was a pretty good sized burrito. The only thing I was disappointed in was the fact it didnt seem to have a lot of bacon despite the fact I asked for all bacon and no sausage. It was pretty much filled with egg which was still good, but made me a little sick after a while. 3/4 through, I deconstructed it and ate the potato and bacon bits. read more

I recently visited Lawson's Bakery and ordered the iced lavender honey oatmilk latte and the tuxedo cheesecake. The latte was okay overall. The lavender honey flavor was pleasant and drinkable, but the cold foam and oat milk were separating from the coffee, which affected the presentation and texture. Unfortunately, the tuxedo cheesecake was disappointing. It tasted dry and stale, as if it had been sitting out for a while. There wasn't any standout flavor or richness that I would expect from a bakery cheesecake. It honestly tasted more like a store-bought cheesecake from Safeway than a fresh bakery dessert. While the drink was decent, the cheesecake did not meet my expectations, especially for a bakery known for its desserts. read more

Burnt almond cake! Been on a burnt almond cake kick. This place is bomb. I know "the king" of burnt almond is Peter's bakery in San Jose, and to be honest it wasn't the best I tried. It was good but it wasn't the best. Lawsons cakes, they tell you that you have to leave the cake out for at least 2 hours, and to be honest we left out the whole day and that's when it tasted the best! We did the 2 hour and the frosting was still too cold and didn't stick to the cake, but when we did the whole day it was perfect. The cake also was super fluffy and moist and not at all dry. The frosting and almonds... excellent. For a traditional burnt almond, this one was great! I honestly like it better than Peter's Bakery. read more

I want to tell a story about how a local business can really step up its service game. I've had three instances where DoorDash drivers picked up my order by mistake, but the staff and the owner corrected the issue without hesitation. Bravo to the fantastic staff for taking good care of the customers. They could've easily passed the buck to DoorDash, but they took initiative and really apologized. This is why I keep coming back and supporting this business( as should everyone!!!) read more

The lady w the glasses helping me was nice. What I ordered: -black coffee: horrible! It was so watery. I didn't not taste any coffee what so ever. -breakfast burrito: this was decent. Very, very cheesy tho. It took away from the sausage and egg. -breakfast sandwich: a disaster to eat. It was really rich and oily. The cheese crisp was so unnecessary. $40 later and severely disappointed. read more

Met ups with local friends and my gosh the pancakes were some of the best I have ever had. They have a very limited menu and only a few vegan options so that would have made this place 5 stars. I had the breakfast sandwich with no cheese and I swear it tastes like they make the English muffins there. My husband loved their breakfast burrito on wheat tortilla and the red velvet latte. They have quick counter service but I could see this place getting packed. On a Saturday at lunch, it was steady but not packed. It's further north from the downtown district but in a new space. The restaurant has a fun chalk wall and two gender neutral restrooms. I didn't get to try their cakes and pastries but our friends highly recommend them. read more

Good cafe, nice staff. Limited menu and the kitchen is able to adjust as needed. Not the best place to work remotely. It was calm until another employee came in and raised the volume of the music and started talking very loudly about her morning.. There is a nice table set up and a nice outside area. read more

The service was great but i was a bit disappointed with the pastries from the lemon bars to the spinach feta.. The Spinach feta i bought for my mom and she said she could not stomach it as it had a strong taste of fish.. i tried it and she was totally right.. not sure what happened there! Then the lemon bars were just not tasty sorry.. they tasted like soap. I threw them all away and they were not cheap. I was honestly super disappointed. This place was highly recommended on Nextdoor, however I am not totally turned off to try them again but my first experience was not great. It's honestly tooo bad since there sooo close to my house. read more

Great service great food. You can eat inside or outside very nice and relaxing outside.

Food is great. Baked goods and meals. Servers are nice. Love coming here for coffee and meeting friends.

Cute bakery shop hidden in the corner. There is plenty of room for indoor dining inside. They serve breakfast and take orders to make cake for parties. They also serve coffee, fresh bakery goods (beignets, fudge brownies, blondies etc.). The service is excellent. Everyone was kind and patient and gave accurate estimates in terms of how long it takes to make there freshly made beignets. I have to say, the freshly made beignets is the main attraction for me, especially with their homemade caramel sauce. It is absolutely amazing! I will definitely be coming back just for that. Be aware, it is a bit messy to eat especially you take it to go as a roadtrip snack, but the nice part is they provide boxes to take it to go so you don't spill everywhere. read more

Lawson's Bakery has such a unique coffee menu and a really inviting atmosphere, especially for families. The coffee is definitely on the pricier side compared to other spots in the area, but the large venue, outdoor toys, and little crayon station inside make it a great place to bring kids. I'd love to see them add a small play kitchen indoors since there's plenty of room and the space already feels very family-friendly! read more

It came out better than I could have imagined and tasted great. They did my wedding cakes in 2023 and I was just as happy then as well.
