Staff is so friendly and always makes a great experience- the cinnamon rolls are my favorite - I have been trying a different sweet treat every visit- of course in addition to my CR with extra frosting- so far my 2nd fav is German Chocolate Cake read more

Walking to Nick's on 2nd, the smell of fresh baked cinnamon rolls caught our attention. We love their warm butter cake with ice cream, but this bakery was calling out to us. Head's up...they are a cash only bakery, which worked out just fine, because I had enough cash for all our goodies and a tip. I would have given 5 stars, but the person behind the counter was not enjoying her day. We were happy with our selections and will be returning soon! read more

Sweet Jill's Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Long Beach, California

The name say it all, "sweet" place for all the right or any excuses reasons. They got all the bake goods. I used to come here for years but after all the sugar rush die down and I moved therefore I paused. This week, it just about sweet things for me. This would be my #8 store in 4 days. I love the cookies here, especially snickerdoodle. You ca smell the bake goods from the street and it's irresistible to ignore the displaces of the goodies at the glass window, it just like calling your name to "come in and try me". The name says it all, they all are sweet (the older I get, it's getting abit too sweet for me) but once in awhile, it just hitting all the right spots. The staff/baker are sweet, friendly and honestly adorable. They do have seating area inside, which I call the "alley" cause it does look like it. Also a bench outside. It's a cute, colorful sweet shop for sweet things. The prices are reasonable and portion is huge. What more can you ask for. Yum! read more

Copious options. Went for the cinnamon bun. It was good but wish it had less sugar and more cinnamon. Very sweet bakery.

Cash only so that can be a major deterrent! Super fair prices, large selection of treats, and a local staple. To be fair we didn't try the famous cinnamon roll but definitely will add this to the list. Service was fast and it has a very classic feel inside read more

This place simply is the best around. If you're lucky enough to cash the cinnamon rolls as they come out the oven don't hesitate grab one maybe grab two make sure they put that sauce all over that nice glaze. The staff is friendly. There isn't too much seating. read more

Sweet Jill's Bakery - Cinnamon roll - Bakeries Near Me - Long Beach, California

The cakes are too thick. This is an inexpensive option if you're looking for dessert, so I would probably come back in the future but it's not mindblowing. They are cash only. Line moved quickly, and I didn't see anywhere to sit but I just walked in, got my cake and left. read more

Used to get Cinnamon Rolls for Christmas Morning for over 10 years. Wonderful- delicious- memory!!!

Ooo La La! Dessert is their specialty! We love their sweets ... maybe a bit too much? lol. Worth the trip. Service is fast and friendly. Absolutely no room inside! I think there are a couple chairs but good luck getting one of those! We always take our goodies to go. Enjoy read more

We were excited to try a pastry! The worst cinnamon roll that I ever had in my life!!! Don't try it!!!

i ordered several items to try out the other evening. They were so good I went back the next morning. All her treats are beyond delicious. Everything is addicting. Prices are right. Do yourself a favor and go. Plus Jill was there last time I went and she was very prompt and polite. All of her employees seem happy and that matters so much. read more

I bought 2 cupcakes. And honestly they're too sweet for my taste. I wouldn't order them since the pricing is expensive. They only accept Cash No Apple Pay, No Android pay, and Not even card payments. They do have an ATM in store though read more

I walked in and asked about one of the unlabeled items, he told me it was a 'chocolate chip cookie with fudge in the middle' so I bought it. It had peanut butter. It was peanut butter chocolate chip. I dislike that flavor and ended up throwing it away. The service was from a guy with blonde hair. Very rude and I was so excited for my dessert until I tasted it. I won't be back. read more

First, I'd like to say that this place is cash only they do not take any credit cards or debit. I got the cinnamon roll and a coffee cake. The cinnamon roll is OK but the coffee cake was one of the best I've ever had parking is very difficult on 2nd Street so if you want to go to this place, I would recommend going on a weekday and bring cash. read more

Came in on Sunday night at 9:10, love this place had super enjoyable experiences previously. We drive from Huntington Beach, we come to this one because it has a bigger selection than seal beach. This time, did not make the cut. The workers were so rude to us. We felt super rushed, we were not greeted as we entered. Other people walked in after us and they were greeted. Truly felt not welcome this time around. The employees were on their phone trying to figure something out while we were trying to order. We bought a bunch of treats, we love the food but the service this time sucked. When you're spending $100 you'd think they'd be more willing to help. It was still an hour until close. I could understand if we came in 5 mins before closing, but That was not the case. read more

My favorite thing about walking up and down the street is walking by this bakery. I bet you can't walk by this place without going inside. The aroma every time.

My absolute favorite is German chocolate cake with a toasted coconut on top . Absolutely delicious. Everything is good ! All Baked fresh daily! Such a smart move to put a bench in front of the bakery. You guys go shopping eat desserts Five stars read more

Sweet Jill's has been one of my go-to spots for years. Cozy, friendly staff, casual vibe and always a great place to satisfy a sweet tooth. The real reason to go is the cinnamon rolls -- absolutely undefeated. Warm, soft, massive, and every bit as good as I remember every time. read more

Just about passed out first time I went in and saw the amazing selection. Went for the cinnamon roll (which I highly recommend) and left with a selection that kept me going for days! Really excellent baked goods and free smells!!! (Just like Jimmy Johns!) read more

Desserts are absolutely amazing! Huge but... They do not accept card, only cash and of course they have an atm that charges a fee to withdraw cash. Disappointing tbh and you can tell the workers explaining that they do not accept card are tired of having the same conversation over and over with customers. They said the owner does the books old school. Made the whole interaction standoffish and started to ask the next customer in line what they wanted before I realized that luckily, I had some cash on me because I never do! This is preventing your business from thriving! It's 2024, get a clover please and thank you! Chocolate coconut macaroon was delicious and moist ! Location is small but has benches outside. read more

Picked up some delightful desserts for a relative at Sweet Jill's. The shop is cash only but the selection is plentiful and the portions are large. Our relative has a big sweet tooth and while the sweets were a bit too sweet for me, she thoroughly enjoyed them.

Absolutely love this bakery! You can't go wrong with anything you choose. It is always crowded, so you know it's delicious. Prices are good too. read more

If I could only have one dessert before I die it would be a Sweet Jill's cinnamon roll. That's how good they are!

These are the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had and I can't find any other place that tops these! They're huge and super delicious and they serve them every day unlike some bakeries that only do cinnamon rolls on weekends. They also have tons of other baked goods like a million different cakes and cookies and it's all good. The cinnamon rolls are a MUST though. Just note they only do cash so come prepared. There's a small atm inside but I think there are fees to use it so might be best to stop by your bank's atm first. There's seating inside too! read more

I'm honestly surprised by the low ratings for Sweet Jill's because it's my absolute favorite place to get cinnamon rolls! The cinnamon rolls here are massive but are so delicious with how pillowy soft and sweet they are. Whenever I'm in Long Beach, I always consider going to Sweet Jill's to pick one up. Alongside the cinnamon rolls, they have a large variety of other desserts that look delicious as well. The store itself is pretty casual and has a few tables and chairs in case you wanted to eat your baked goods there, however, a lot of people also take it to go. Service here is pretty good and whenever I go, the workers are very friendly. One thing to note is that they only accept cash here, so be sure to have some on hand! They also don't have a dedicated parking lot here and the area itself is really busy, so finding a spot is typically difficult and you'll most likely have to park further away and walk. read more

Ambience is cozy, similar to local bakery's vibes. Kind of reminds me of the bakeries in the Philippines. Lots of options for sweet tooth peeps like me, cinnamon rolls served warm with icing. Worker's friendly and they also serve coffee/hot cocoa. Do bring cash when you come in here, they only accept cash. Highly recommend this place for comfort dessert read more

Like grandmas home-baked desserts! It took me 3 times coming in but being too overwhelmed with all the delicious options to order, but I finally decided on the famous cinnamon roll & a slice of oreo cake. Super sweet, rich, LARGE desserts! Right when you enter it's immediate nostalgia for a place you've never been. read more

Dude, this place is DECADENT. When you walk in, your nose is attacked with delicious aromas that make you feel super guilty for being in there. Like, all you smelled was richness and hypertension. But live your life and eat up! Huge portions, wild flavors, and everything is moist! (I hate that word, btw.) Picked up the strawberry cake (solid) and, from what I remember, a lemon cheesecake. I enjoyed the strawberry cake much more, but I will say that the cheesecake was delicious the day after. The flavors seemingly settled and weren't as tart as day of. Perfection. They don't take cards, so bring cash. read more

Got cash? This bakery only takes cash. I've walked by and looked through the window many times, but this was the first time I decided to look inside. Mistake. I was sent into a frenzy when I walked in and saw the three large cases of cookies and bakery items. It also looks like they bake throughout the day because the cases were full in the afternoon. I went a little overboard when I bought a coconut macaroon, chocolate covered gingerbread man cookie, and Hello Kitty cookie. The macaroon is the largest one I've ever had. I should have stuck with just one treat, but once again, my eyes were larger than my stomach. Friendly, efficient customer service. There are a couple small tables on the side if you want to eat your treats there. read more

Worst carrot cake ive had. Threw it out after a bite. Doesn't taste like carrot cake, way too sweet no cheesy flavor in frosting.

If you're on a diet I highly recommend not walking by this establishment. You'll have to walk in and follow your nose because the baked goods are just as good as they smell. I day dream about the chocolate cakes but they have so many other options. Imagine having to walk by this place every morning on your way to work! Customer service is always great & everyone is super friendly. read more

Ordered on Postmates they sent out old dried food. It's really disappointing. I called the store and was told it was the last item and they didn't know how fresh it was.. it's the principle of putting out quality not trying to complain over an $8 muffin read more

Super glad we stumbled upon this spot! Yes it's cash only, but no biggie. They have a HUGE selection of sweets. Their yellow cake with fudge is definitely my top favorite. I am very very picky with my cakes and this place definitely hit the spot. Can't wait to come back and try more of their delicious options! Definitely have my eye on the strawberry cake and their pineapple upside down cake! I haven't touched their pies or other baked goodies, ahhh so overwhelming! read more

Was walking by with my girlfriend and wasn't even planning to get anything. We literally followed the smell of cinnamon rolls here. Some of the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had. I also got a latte and I liked how the ice cubes were coffee so it didn't get watered down. We literally came back the next day, that's how good it was. We got strawberry coffee cake and carrot cake. read more

Sweet Jill's Bakery is located right in the heart of the Second Street shopping district in Belmont Shores. From the moment you walk in you will see a vast array of various bakery items: cookies, muffins, macaroons, pretty much you name it and they make it. Each item is made with great care equaling great flavor. One of the main things to know about Sweet Jill's is that they are a Cash Only business. You really need to know this before you pick out your items because if you get to point where the staff member has packed them away, and you don't have any cash, you're not going to be able to buy them. Most people use Sweet Jill's as a to-go bakery. It's easy to come in and grab what you want and take it home or to wherever else you may want to enjoy their items. They also have a few tables inside, as well. So, if you see something that you want to eat right away, you can sit back at and enjoy it at one of the tables. Overall, this is a fun business to grab that tasty treat that you want for now or for later. read more

The only thing nice here is the "free smells". We came here a few times and received stale desserts. We came the other day and asked if they had any fresh cinnamon twists and the workers just had an attitude. The sweets are also very overpriced. Apparently they do take card only when it's convenient for them and want to make a sale. We saw the owner but she didn't seem welcoming. We just felt as if we annoyed them by being there. I don't understand these 5 star fake reviews but I will not come back. read more

Sweet Jill's Bakery carries the perfect name for what they're baking up in house! Whatever sweets you pick up, you MUST try their homemade cinnamon rolls. When I tell you - the flavor, the smell, the stickiness, the icing.... It's a delight to all senses and is just simply perfection. It's a sweet small shop that often has a line out the door, but it is more than worth the wait! They are cash only, so make sure you've got some on hand when you arrive. Enjoy! read more

It's a small heart felt bakery. Cakes are moist and fresh. Cinnamon rolls are amazing. My only gripe is service. This place makes guests feel like you're doing them a favor coming here? There's so many people looking for work hire pleasant people that smile. I personally don't care how great bakery items are if you're miserable at your place of employment. read more

An OC must try! Their selections are hugeee and service is always great. My favorites are their brownies and cakes. Snickerdoodle cookie was a bit dry but I'll definitely try other flavors in the future. They have so many options but would love to see GF or vegan options available. Also cash only but they have an atm inside, definitely a solid spot for a sweet treat or two! read more
