We sought out PattyCakes due to their positive reviews about gluten free (gf) menu options. This quaint little shop was a pleasant surprise upon entering. The seemingly all women team was cheerful, helpful, and delightful! The reviews were accurate. I asked first about their gf options and was offered at least a half dozen options. I settled on the buckeyes and petit fours. My gluten ingesting travel mates selected cinnamon roll cookies and the pecan cinnamon roll. The petit fours were my personal favorite, they were simply MARVELOUS! The cake was dense and moist and the frosting literally made me wish I had a whole cake! The buckeyes, the cinnamon roll and cookies also received honorable mention. All three were superb with a mug of black coffee! Do recommend that you heat the cinnamon roll if able prior to eating. Considering going back tomorrow for more petit fours!! read more

My family and I were visiting Galveston before our cruise and we had 3 who would be celebrating birthdays. The first birthday was the day before our cruise started, so I called PattyCakes Bakery to see if they had any cakes available for purchase and if I could get writing on it, because my brother had mentioned that he only wanted to try local restaurants while we were there. I was assured that they had cakes and that they could write on the cake. My sister and I took an Uber to the store and they had a cake available, but they told us it would be about 5 minutes before the person who did the writing arrived. We waited much longer than 5 minutes and the person who was supposed to do the writing NEVER arrived. We could see the staff texting and calling and finally one of the people working said that she was not good at it, but she offered to write on the cake for us. She didn't do a great job (all we wanted was "Happy Birthday" and my brother's name) but it was better than nothing, and my sister and I truly appreciated those that tried to assist us. My rating is based upon the horrible service by the person who was supposed to do the writing, and the fact that we paid $35 for a chocolate cake that was dry and not very good. I would not recommend this bakery, even with the great service we received from those who were working that day. read more

March 28, 2023 Came in for a treat for my boss, wanted to smooze her and Patty's is my FAVORITE island bakery. Picked out 4 white cake petite fours and to my surprise they were stale. (sad face) After the first one being dry and the fondant being hard and cracking, I knew I couldn't give my boss that. I had to try another one...and, then the 3rd... hoping one would be delightful as usual but, nope...all 4 were stale; I was so disappointed In the 10 years that I've been coming here, this has never happened. read more

This place is really good and in walking distance of UTMB. Their bakery case was filled with so many different pastries. Service was quick and easy. Now a whole lot to say about ambiance as it's not really a dine in bakery, but it was nice and clean. My caramel latte was good! I also got a cinnamon roll, I am deducting a star for that bc I wished it had been warmed up before it was served to me! That would have elevated this place to 5 stars, but overall it was good and I would come back again! read more

We did not go to the bakery itself, but to the cafe beside it (the Mosquito Cafe), all their cakes come from Pattycakes. We got the triple dare chocolate cake and it was just melt-in-the mouth yummy. I like chocolate but stay far away from double chocolates or death by chocolate kind of stuff, but this , I could not stop after the first bite. Loved it. Loved it. read more

Delicious food always good for a pastry and the cakes are beautiful and delicious are well as well!

Awesome great place good backer nice people fantastic food my vote is yes you will not be disappointed

Picked up a cake for a birthday. The lemonade cake was delish and service super friendly. Definitely will be back for sweets and breads.

Nice bakery, with tasty treats. Friendly staff, and a good variety. Ho on Friday for fresh bread day.

Service was amazing. Like a church usher leading me to the altar. The cookies were a spiritual experience

Whenever I eat across the street at Mosquito Cafe, I always get a slice of the Lemonade cake, which comes from PattyCakes bakery. The lemonade cake is always perfect! The flavor is good and perfect for sharing. Today I stopped in for a little treat. I bought a fudge pecan sandie and a holy cow. I should have bought more than one of the fudge pecan sandie, because it was so good but it was gone in two bites! Cute sign on the way in "treat yoself!" so I did! Yummy! read more

TLDR: Keto Options Available! Everything we got was LEGIT. They were some of, if not THE best, keto baked goods I've had... and that's saying a lot. Admittedly, the keto items are made Marinas Bakery in League City, but it was a godsend to have something like this available on the island to satisfy my sweet tooth. Kudos to the staff for explaining everything and providing the nutrition labels/pricing. I'll def be back to try their in house treats when not on keto. Service: 8.4/10 The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Food: 9.2/10 Keto Blueberry Loaf: 9.2/10 I am honestly floored by how good this was... even if I wasn't on keto, this would have still gone hard in the paint. The cake was moist and the crumble on top had a nice "sugary" texture that was lengths and bounds ahead of any other similar product I've tried in this category. Do it. Keto Croissant: 8.7/10 Is it the better than the traditional French croissant? Probably not... But it's near perfection when you're limiting carbs and the options are extremely limited. These were absolutely worth it! Do it. Keto Everything Bagel: 8.7/10 Bagels are such a difficult thing to emulate on a keto plan. These were also the best version I've had, and it's not even close. Do it. All in all, our experience was stellar. In a quick 5 minutes we were in and out... completely satisfied. It was pricey... $70 for a blueberry loaf, 4 croissants, and 5 bagels... but when you account for the fact that these were the best keto items out there... worth every penny. I say give this place a shot! read more

Delicious gluten free almond petifour! Lots of gluten free options! Key lime pie good if you like sweet and coconut

PattyCakes was fantastic! I needed a special cake for my dad's 100th birthday party for 50-60 guests. PattyCakes made not only a beautiful cake but delicious too (white lemon cake with white icing)! " Happy 100th Birthday Bill, to the greatest Grandaddy!" was perfectly written with embellishments! Very good value and exact on time. Also great treat for picking up the cake are PattyCakes other amazing baked treats! Always offer to pick up the cake! Thanks PattyCakes! read more

PattyCakes Bakery - Beautiful and delicious cake! - Bakeries Near Me - Galveston, Texas

Local here- Yet again, I'm surprised that Patty Cakes stays open. I go in at 2 o'clock and ask for a coffee. They wouldn't serve me coffee because they had 'closed up' their machine (an hour early) . I don't get it ....if a customer wants something you sell, don't you serve it to them? Clean again the dang machine again- especially if you're not closing down for another hour and are just standing around. . It got me kind of frustrated so I didn't even get the few cakes iI wanted for guests that evening. Now their cakes and desserts are delicious but the service just continuously erodes my faith in their ability to do and sustain business. Kroger here I come-again. read more

Great service, nice selection! Took a minute to locate it, but glad we did! Loved the key lime tart & buckeye! My daughter said her cookies were great! My son liked the cookies & cream cake ball. We ordered the vanilla on vanilla cupcake, but it had a lemon hint to it & my daughter wasn't a fan. Note that there is not seating, it's grab & go. You're not far from the playground though, so just take your treats there lol! We ate ours on the ferry ride. :) read more

we ordered 36 cupcakes for an 80th birthday party. I did call with only a three day notice dur to the winter storm and they were limited on what they could offer. I order plain cupcakes (vanilla and chocolate) with vanilla or chocolate icing. I was to pick them up at 5pm on Saturday but while we were sightseeing on Saturday morning (about 10:30am), I stopped in to let them know I would pick them up that evening. to my surprise, the cupcakes were ready. I was in shock! I couldn't even speak! These cupcakes were decorated with pastel sprinkles and were nothing more than a prepackaged bakery item and $150. I left and called back about 45 minutes later to discuss my options. I was advised that I should have "customized" when I ordered to which I responded "what does plain mean?" The cupcakes were the joke of the celebration and were dry. Such an extreme disappointment! read more

Rain or shine. Hot or cold. Fishing or sunbathing or eating seafood. No matter the reason we are in Galveston we always wind up at this Bakery. I bought an old school pie for my mother-in-law and it was amazing. My favorites are the cookies. My teenage daughter goes for the cake balls. My wife favors anything chocolate. This place smells amazing and has a really nice look to it. And of course, it smells delicious. We always walk out with a bakery box of goodies to enjoy. read more

By far one of Galveston's best businesses! The bakery is always clean and has a wide selection of goods each day. The staff is always smiling and welcoming customers in to the mesmerizing array of choices. Every cupcake is a winner, and my kids love the sugar cookies. One of my personal favorites is the almond petit fours. If you are in the mood for something decadent, try a Holy Cow! Everything is fresh. Spice cookies to lintzers, cupcakes to petit fours, they have what you're craving if it's baked. They even have dog treats! read more

The croissants and the cold sandwich in the fridge are my favorite on the go. To take home: the pies & babka. I have ordered a cake here, I'll probably order it again but ask for less sweetness or less frosting if that's possible. read more

Not sure about all the great reviews for this place. It was just O.K. to me. Oatmeal cookie-average Lemon bomb - good but had some strawberry filling in it. Chocolate Eclair-....ok. Husband said he has had better elsewhere. Maybe we went on an off day. Idk Return-don't think so read more

First off, after tax it was 8.50 for a chocolate croissant... still bought it because I wanted to try it out. Not the croissant I was looking for. Really big though if you're into that. read more

Best cup cakes and bakery in Galveston. Have to stop by there if you haven't. Staff is always helpful and friendly. read more

Very nice place but a little pricey for my budget. I paid $12.99 for a small apple strudel. It was very good but not worth $12,99. I have my own baking business and would charge around 7 or 8 max. Great quality if price doesnt matter. read more

Cupcakes ok- didn't taste homemade the icing was good-5 Ginger spice cookie with icing- 10 The cinnamon straw/stick was good - 6 Chocolate covered macaroon- 10 Both of the items I rated an 10 was very good when it came to taste, texture. However I am rating this bakery low due to it been expensive- yes 4 cookie cost about six bucks and they had the nerve to asked for an tip.

We happened upon this gem and when we walked in the smell was amazing. They had just cooked some amazing cinnamon rolls that were still warm and fresh out of the oven.

This place is pretty pricey, which I don't mind because they do have great stuff. This is my 4rth time to go here, and each time I am struck by the unfriendly behavior. I have never spent less than $40.00 at a time and usually more than that, as I am often buying for an occasion or for people at work. This morning the girl who rang me out was friendly but no one else was. Including who I am assuming is the owner. I asked how much a bag of Macaroons were and she quickly spat out $12.95 for a 12, without a smile, or any other acknowledgment than that. No eye contact or anything, maybe she isn't aware of how it comes off but feeling like I am being a bother when I am buying things is not something I am going to do anymore. (it would help if there were prices on the pre-packaged items but there are not) I ordered a couple of cupcakes for 2 different people at work for birthdays. (I also bought THE Macaroons and some mini zucchini cakes for Thanksgiving) First they were put in the same bag and turned over when I picked the bag up, then she did then offer me a second bag so they could be own their own. Unfortunately by the time I got to work they were both turned each which way, absolutely ruining the presentation for both, this container is way to big for these cupcakes. read more

We were staying in Galveston for my daughters 8th birthday. I ordered a cake in advance first via Facebook messenger then a phone call. They prefer a phone call over messenger which is fine. The process was easy. We ordered a 6 inch, one tier 3 layer vanilla cake with strawberry filling and custom fishing themed cake. Total was around 60 bucks. When we came to pick up, plenty of parking along the street so that was no problem. Cake was very cute. Very pleased. Since we weren't eating the cake until the next day(they were closed on Monday and that was the birthday), we got a couple of cupcakes. Vanilla on vanilla cake was great. Red velvet was dry for my taste. Sad face. As for the birthday cake. Frosting was DELICIOUS. Not too sugary or whipped creamy if you know what I mean. Decorations was totally cute. Daughter didn't like the strawberry filling but that was a preference thing. Still can't get over the creamy texture of the frosting. I'm more of a cake person over frosting (texture and taste sometimes doesn't agree with me) so it was a nice treat to actually eat the whole thing for a change. If in Galveston again would definitely try some of the other things. Highly recommend. read more

Buyers beware ! They are charging for food that you are not even getting. make sure to check your receipt. We got one croissant, one cupcake, and ten sand tart cookie. They charged me $28.00 for a dozen macaroons. And I have seen a few other reviews saying the same thing!! read more

BUYER BEWARE. I am insane. I went to this bakery this morning expecting to spend around $40. I purchased a coffee cake (about 1 lb), 6 small slices if chocolate rugalah, and one spinach and cheese croissant. They wrapped it all nicely and after I slipped in my credit card the total was SIXTY SEVEN DOLLARS. yes $67. I was on my way back to San Marcos and in a hurry so I hit accept and left with the goods. Yes, their products are excellent BUT that was ridiculous. BUYER BEWARE They are definitely GOUGING the public like all the other companies these day. I know I was stupid to pay them. I will NEVER go there again. Generally I've noticed that it's not inflation that's to blame anymore, it's gouging the middle class. Look at the bottom lines on large corporations and the executive salaries. We all keep buying. read more
