We stumbled upon this lovely, special cafe with a focused intention in mind: we wanted a relaxed and easy atmosphere to sit and brainstorm new business concepts. We thought, what the heck, this spot is well reviewed. Now honestly, this is one of those times when a place is so good, I find myself hesitating to write a review about it because I don't want to let the wonderfulness be overwhelmed by all the people who will want to rush to try it. But, honestly, Baker's Table is too charming and delicious to hold as a private secret. The food is scrumptious, the staff attentive, the desserts are luscious. What a pleasant morning or afternoon stop to enjoy special quiet time or a fun gathering of close friends or family. Amy, the owner, cares about your experience and takes great care to make the location one that speaks of easy and causal wine country sophistication, where everyone is welcome, appreciated and valued. She is a professional baker and caterer and her commitment to exemplary fare comes through in every item on her menu! Since our original visit we have stopped in over and over again whenever we are in the area. We always know we will find a fun selection of mouth-watering delectables to make our taste buds do a happy rumba! :D So if you are in Santa Ynez be sure to stop by and grab a flavor-filled snack or an appetite quenching meal or a decadent dessert, believe me, you'll be very glad you did. Or if you stop by some of the local markets or wineries you might find delicious Baker's Table breads or sandwiches available for grab and go. Let's just say, wherever you see the Baker's Table logo get ready for delectable edibles! Bon appetit!!!! read more

This is my first time to this restaurant. I ordered the corned beef hash. It came out in a very timely manner but both of the eggs that were on top of the hash were overcooked and hard. I waited 7 minutes for them to return with the eggs and when I received them, one of the eggs was cooked correctly in the other one was cooked hard again. The corned beef hash itself is made up of chunks corned beef which overall are a little tough and bland for corned beef. The rest are small white potatoes cut in half with chunks of bell pepper. My favorite kind of corned beef hash is a corned beef hash of potatoes onions and corned beef of course. But it's all the ingredients together that make a corned beef hash so good whether bell pepper is added or other ingredients. In this case, it tastes like a plate of meat, Bell pepper, and potatoes that don't really meld together like I'm eating a plate of separate items. The coffee is very good. But I would definitely not come back here. read more

The food was excellent. Why the 3 stars? We got there at 2pm and they were already closing up the outside tables and chairs (even though they didn't close for another 30 minutes), my boyfriend even said "are you sure this place is still open?" We went inside and it was clean and well put together. The menu was on the pricier side for the decor and ambiance, but it came highly recommended on Yelp do we wanted to try it. He ordered a Reuben, I ordered a Nicoise. The older woman taking our order had a negative attitude, and was borderline rude (and by that I mean she was hot and cold). She was there to serve us food and it felt like we were imposing on her time. At first I thought it was just us, but then we quickly realized it was just her "thing," a potential customer called and she was really rude on the phone because she couldn't hear them. I really wanted to order a cappuccino but part of me though "maybe I should just go somewhere else and give my money to a place with better attitude." Our food came and it was amazing. My Niçoise salad was simple and the ingredients were fresh and I can't rave enough about how great and delicious the food was. My suggestion to Yelpers, order your food To Go, and picnic on one of the many parks around the Santa Ynez Valley. There is parking right outside. The bathrooms are spotless clean. The pastries were mouthwatering. The decor is simple. The food is five stars. The attitude is a shame. read more

The food was delicious and of high quality, and the service was good. We had two sandwiches for lunch (the special) which was like an Italian sub - my husband loved it. I had the turkey and Brie sandwich. It was excellent. The problem with turkey is that often it dries out too much, but not in this case. We also had chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Because we like our sweets we took a chocolate croissant and a pumpkin muffin home. We had them for breakfast after putting them in the toaster oven and they were exquisite. The flaky croissant crunch deliciously! I'd def return. read more

I am giving them 2 stars because I have been here for lunch several times and the food is usually good. The service is usually ok too. We went for breakfast today. To start with my mom is 89 y/o and doesn't hear well. Of course it took a little longer to place our order and a line started to form. The annoyance that the cashier showed was very obvious. They are never overly friendly, just not hostile. Then I ordered huevos rancheros with hash browns. Breakfast came and there it was with what looked like a pile of canned black beans, no hash browns. Apparently, they were out. I asked to revise my order because I'm not especially fond of black beans and it isn't breakfast without hash browns.. So I ordered chilaquiles. When the order came out I swear it was a pile of tortilla chips out of a bag with canned red enchilada sauce poured over it and just a speck of queso. It was a very disappointing visit this time. read more

WOW. Worth a break and drive to this Eatery. First of all its bright airy decor is so welcoming and puts in a great mood. Thank comes their small but excellent breakfast and lunch selections that are executed to perfection. Daily specials too. Large fresh bakery selection that will make you cry out with joy. Coffee fabulous too. Closes at 2:30 daily Closes Monday's too. read more

Five f-bomb stars! And an exclamation point to boot. I rode my motorcycle out from Carpinteria, explored Foxen Canyon, and on my way back the Bakery Gods guided me to The Baker's Table. I have been ever thankful since. I was not worthy of their Green Mountain Coffee and apricot almond croissant. After devouring this tasty treat, I felt I needed to sacrifice something. Luckily I had a speeding ticket I could offer to the Gods. The staff is friendly, their Covid-19 protocols are spot on, and their bread is freshly made. I know they have a lot more on the menu, and I look forward to many good meals there. I wish them the best of luck during these trying times. Oh, and sorry about the lousy pic. read more

First time visitor to Solvang to visit my horses at a nearby farm. I wanted to bring farm some treats and found this place close to where I was staying overnight. Cute business that serves breakfast and pastries. Purchased croissants, and scones. They received rave reviews for being very buttery, flaky, and flavorful. Will definitely stop by here again! read more

Great food. Delicious. Excellent coffee. Might have been an off day for the staff they seemed put out by us as customers. Wasn't busy or overcrowded they just seemed bugged. We're out of orange juice, had to brew more coffee, the creamer was empty. Just some small annoyances. Overall we would definitely dine here again. read more

The Lemon Ginger scones were fabulous! Also enjoyed the toasted homemade bread along side the poached eggs and avocado! Very accommodating staff and able to make almost anything requested! The vanilla latte was great as well! Would visit again! read more

Looking for breakfast we found this Coffee Place and really liked their variety of options in desserts. So much to choose from and such beautiful creations! Ordered the Egg with Bacon Croissant Sandwich. Doesn't come with vegetables but good size breakfast. read more

What an awesome addition to Santa Ynez! Our friends(local SYV residence) have enjoyed their baked goods since they opened but now that they have expanded; I finally had lunch there and was totaled convinced that this place is a winner. Great food/value, clean environment and excellent staff. You must check them them out and if you like tune melts, this is your place! read more

Beautiful decor, bright and warm inside with an awesome breakfast and samples of jarred delights for you to try.

This is my favorite for breakfast and lunch. Love everything about it from the friendly and hoping to please atmosphere to the indoor/outdoor choice. Everything made from scratch with the freshest produce. Thank you for this family run delight in our little village. The quiche today was light and almost fluffy-mouthwatering, and the coffee just perfect. Instagram has photos that show it all read more

I eat fresh bread and pastries from Bakers Table all over town and decided to try the spot so many of my favorite places source their baked goods from. It looks like they recently expanded to the store front next door and really opened things up. This place seemed really big and kind of empty (it was early on a Sunday so I imagine it can get busy). The staff was patient and really nice that I took forever to decide on what to eat. Their baked goods looked good and I couldn't decide, but I ended up going with a croissant and a piece of chocolate cake and later went back for a blueberry muffin. All three were great, a little early for that rich cake for me though. We also had the corned beef hash which was out of this world I would highly recommend trying it! We were bummed they didn't have any gluten free options and such a small hot food menu but still great none the less. read more

This little place is so quaint and right for any bread lovers! All the pastries looked yummy! I had the artichoke quiche and salad then the lemon panna cota ... oh man all were amazing! I will be back! read more

Best breakfast burritos and lattes. A truly joyful addition to any SY stay. Everything is stellar honestly with a great atmosphere to boot.

Great for breakfast, and lunch The best bread in the Santa Ynez valley (not an easy thing to say given the 8 bakeries). My go to place for breakfast and lunch. read more

Wonderful breakfast, absolutely delicious! Great bakery items, make sure you try their sticky buns! I had their "famous" corned beef hash - fantastic! My wife had (and loved!) the breakfast special, chilaquiles. Amazing! Really great atmosphere and wonderful service! read more

The chocolate croissants and maple scones were heaven. Ice tea was perfect. Very Nicely Decorated. Loved it:) read more

Food is good but the attitude is a little weird. No eye contact or typical customer service you might expect from a customer service company. I thought it was because I bring my kids with me that they were unfriendly but I read other reviews and realized it's just they way they think you deal with customers. Having realized that, it's good to know that it's not personal, it's just business as usual. "No soup for you!" One lady claimed that other customers looked at her because she was in an interracial relationship but they give us the same look and it has nothing to do with being conservative or racist (those two aren't intentionally related by me), I think it's just the weird vibe of the place. Kinda like shopping at lazy acres. read more

Cookies were $6.00 each and hard as a rock. My mom nearly chipped her tooth. Told owner and was refunded. 4 months later she posts negatively on social media about my complaint and names me by name. Bad customer service. Will make sure everyone I know knows not to go here. read more

Delicious and adorable!! The staff was relaxed and friendly in a very clean space with a home-like ambiance. And that Cobb salad... It gave me a newfound appreciate for lettuce. So fresh! So perfectly sprinkled with bacon and seasonings. read more

I love the Bakers table. The baked goods are the best in the valley. Chocolate croissants are excellent, delicious pies and cakes, the chocolate hazelnut scone is amazing. The food is always fresh and seasonal. My personal favorite lunch item is the roasted vegetable tartine. Amy's breads are fantastic, all the restaurants in town agree because she bakes their bread! The regular menu is small, but she offers specials daily. You won't be disappointed in the food, give it a try, the desserts are to die for. read more

I am staying in solvang but wanted a place for breakfast that is out of the tourist path. What a great place. Delicious food. Many locals are the patrons. read more

This is an absolutely lovely spot. I don't have any pictures to share because we were too busy enjoying our food to immortalize it. For context, I was born and raised in France, so I have a pretty high bar for baked goods. At Baker's table, croissants are flaky, cakes are moist, and quiches are perfectly baked (with the eggs just set). This is really a little gem of a place. Tons of outdoor dining space, too! read more

Awesome little place. Took me a couple attempts to find it, but that is my problem not theirs. I only tried their pastries, but they were quite excellent. A bit pricey, but you are paying for the location and the freshness, I do not mind since we lack quality in this valley full of tourist traps. The whole place is very clean and tidy and whatever was cooking for lunch smelled amazing, so I will be back another time to give lunch a try. I took a menu home and it looks like coming in saturday morning for breakfast may be the hot ticket, will have to give that a try as well. I am happy to have found this place so close to home. read more

The breakfast sandwich was excellent. Pancetta, provolone, arugula, some aoili and scrambled eggs on a fresh ciabatta roll. Perfect. Very good coffee too. I wanted to sample the pastries, but was happily full. Next time for sure. read more

I heard about this lovely establishment from a friend who knows what she's talking about when it comes to food and coffee. I am a huge coffee snob myself, and I love food! I went the bakers table and got an oatmeal cookie and coffee. The coffee was really good... The best I've had in the SYV so far. I liked the cookie a lot, but I'll have to come back for a brownie sometime. They looked wonderful! The bakery reminds me of a real french bakery. It's very clean and pretty, and you can sit down and do some writing or reading while you drink your coffee and eat your lunch. I'm sending this bakery love and light. I hope they do well and stay in the SYV for a long time! read more

I happened to drive through town and spotted this easy to get to bakery. I am always on the hunt for a new bakery. I was skeptical approaching the building but it was cute-to-the-eye, with easy parking for a motorhome across the street, so I continued on my mission. There were few pastries left by 2:00pm ...almost closing time so I figured that is actually a good sign! I purchased an extra large maple scone and became a believer that their baker has perfected a buttery crispy edge maple scone with a light crumb. There was not an imitation flavor to the scone and tasted like it was made from fresh ingredients. So many scones are too cake-y light for me and then others too dense with improper butter and oat mixture. The Baker's Table scones (I'm had their lemon-ginger too) are worth putting an order in for ahead of time when passing through town. I doubt you will find a better Maple Scone in the US! Truly, it is that good ~ if you are a scone lover. read more
