I guess somehow it takes 20 minutes to toast a bagel and put butter on it and also make an oatmeal??? What the fuck is taking so long? I understand the place is not slow, but are you fucking kidding? Get your shit together it should not take 20 minutes to toast a fucking bagel and give someone an oatmeal. Jesus Christ. read more

Last time I'll ever spend my money here! For my birthday my daughter had them deliver my favorite tea and a breakfast sandwich The drive spilled the tea so 1/2 a cup survived and the sandwich was uneatable. The sandwich was stuffed into a tiny box making it impossible to remove without falling a part, she ordered a game egg and cheese and I received a wet ham slop It was wet for some reason and no egg so not sure what this was The whole experience was gross and very expensive for food I couldn't eat and a drink that was spilled before delivered read more

I loved the spacious, relaxed, great smelling, coffee roasting, relaxed very LGBTQIA inclusive atmosphere! I just regret we had already eaten and were just popping in for a quick coffee perk to go. We will definitely be back. If I'm gonna be brokenhearted that the space no longer houses my favorite little indoor farmers market, then this is the type of new tenant that makes me a little less sad & bitter about it! The service was friendly and really fast, we loved that it was busy and they had plenty of employees to take care of customers. Unfortunately they didn't have a dark roast drip but the medium roast we got was good. Also their selection of tchotchkes, postcards and local souvenir/memorabilia was a real standout... for two people who typically don't buy that sort of thing , other selections were clever, fun/ny, and attractive . Both of us determined next time we're back in town The Bakist will definitely be the place to pick up local/Chesapeake Bay souvenirs (as well as coffee and baked goods!) read more

I stopped in today, mid afternoon. It's SO hard to choose from the array of sweet treats, but the coconut macaroons caught my eye. Delicious! Just the right amount of crispy coconut and chewy cookie, which is an art form that can be hard to achieve. They have a great porch out front for sitting & some "hanging out" space inside for enjoying your coffee. read more

Literally always out of decaf espresso. How do you run a coffee shop and not have coffee?! Allegedly it's bc of their distributor. Get a new distributor! You have been running out of decaf espresso for the last 9 months. I have literally left with no coffee on about a dozen instances bc you're always out of decaf espresso. That's not on your distributor it's on poor business management. It's super frustrating bc your food is good and it's great to have GF options and the location is very nice. Please get your ordering together. read more

Great small town atmosphere and family friendly. The food is excellent and the staff are very friendly. The bakery is off the chart!

Food and coffee is so good!!! Workers are so nice and chill!! You should definitely check it out!!!

The bake goods here are amazing! Some of these best pastries & cookies I have ever had. The lattes are very good & the coffee is good too. The vibe here is very laid back artistic style. They also have items you can purchase there like tote bags & books etc... I think the next thing would for them to display local artists works for sale. It is on the pricey side but the quality is excellent. It's a great place for family & friends & dates & hanging with your dog outside. read more

This is my first time in town and let me say it is a very friendly, clean and respectful community. I woke up ready to eat and go explore, luckily the Bakist is only one block away from my Airbnb. I get a beautiful view of the upper bay on my walk to this very nice bakery/cafe. Immediately upon arrival I see a porch full of cast iron tables and chairs which takes me back to the days at our grandfathers house in the back yard throwing firecrackers at everyone, we like to wake up and choose violence in our family at all ages My order was a double espresso, water, banana nut muffin and a chocolate croissant. Let me say I was baffled as to which one to finish first after taking a bite of each, needless to say I crushed the croissant then destroyed the muffin while sipping on a beautiful espresso! Before I could leave the Bakist I had to go back inside and get two more muffins to go and make sure they were going to have more tomorrow. Im hooked! Thank you to the staff at the Bakist! This is a Beautiful morning! read more

My husband and I visited from out of state. I chose the café based on it's excellent reviews. The café had a welcoming vibe. The cashier was friendly. We ordered a Carmel latte and Carmel machiatto. Both drinks were excellent. There is a very large assortment of pastries. We ordered an almond croissant and chocolate croissant, both delicious. We also had egg sandwiches on everything bagels. I highly recommend The Bakist. read more

Great service, friendly. Good espresso, small gifts absolutely for purchase. Little beach area, was a pleasant visit.

The absolutely cutest beach town bakery! It maybe small but it's mighty. As soon as you walk in the door, you are instantly smelling deliciousness. Order at the counter, everyone is very friendly and efficient despite being extremely busy early on a Saturday morning. My Chai Tea Latte with Almond milk was perfectly delicious. Blueberry Scone was packed full of huge blueberries. Not too sweet, just how I like scones. I grew up in Europe, scones in the US sometimes can be overwhelming sweet. My Almond croissant was simply yummy, and didn't survive the car ride home. read more

The Bakist is a good place to sit and work. They have reliable wifi. The sandwiches and avocado toast I've had were delicious. They even offer gluten-free bread (good quality) for anyone that's celiac or sensitive. Pricing not perfect but worth it in my opinion! read more

Every small town needs a great little coffee shop, and North Beach is no different! I was impressed by the extensive coffee menu, and I found myself deciding between a turmeric latte and a lavender latte. I went with lavender, and the flavor came through perfectly. My daughter wanted the cookie with raspberry icing. It was so delicious and decadent, we couldn't even finish it! She got lemonade, too, which she really enjoyed. We received our orders in a very timely fashion. Their spot is pretty small at the moment, so we ate at a table out front. However, I did notice signage at a bigger space further down the street, closer to the beach, and it looks like they will finally have a chance to become a true coffee shop, giving people a spot to get cozy. I'm excited to see what they do with the space! read more

They've figured out their ordering but just insanely slow. Don't come here if you are in a hurry. Not unusual to wait 20+ minutes for a coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Also, I wish they would wear hair coverings when baking especially the men with long beards. Something about them mixing the dough with their beard hanging over it bugs me. read more

Delicious pastries and breakfast sandwiches. Cute little shop with a friendly staff, reasonable prices and an array of baked goods, one as good, if not better than the next. We tried a number of them. The house made focaccia bread makes for a yummy breakfast sandwich. read more

No espresso. . . no hot chocolate on a Fall day. . .how does this place turn a profit relying on drip coffee and sundry, inconsistent baked goods? Are commercial leases really that cheap in North Beach? read more

Their lattes are horrible. I have never enjoyed one before, better yet it takes 20 minutes to order one item and another 10 for them to prepare the worst drink you could imagine. Don't waste your money or time here. read more

Baked goods & breakfast sandwiches are delicious. Logan the cashier provided excellent customer service- very welcoming. I will return for sure read more

Unbelievable!!! Egg, cheese and ham on Asiago croissant!!! It was also too hard to resist taking a raspberry cheesecake bun and raspberry scone!! Of course the coffee is spot on as well but the best part is Carissa and the rest of the crew. read more

Hands down my favorite place for breakfast on a weekend morning! Nice selection of teas and good coffee. Like the breakfast sandwiches and lunch also. Nice and friendly staff. Love to sit on the covered porch when the weather is nice. read more

Have some coffee and pastries at a reasonable price. It has been out of business for a long time and now they opened they are pretty much a place to sit and have water and juice. I don't know why they are just taking up space there. They should just close and give someone else a chance. read more

I went in for the first time yesterday, but I will go back. The atmosphere is very relaxing and nicely done. I had a turkey sandwich on a fresh bread with peppers, cheese, and a spicy dressing. Check it out. read more

Over priced and overrated. The coffee isn't that great. It shouldn't come as a shock that this place is never open.

They did a great job with the new place, ambiance is great and plenty of room now, breakfast sandwiches and coffee drinks are always excellent! read more

Great 'chill' atmosphere. Fabulous chai. Delicious egg sandwich on Asiago bagel. Friendly staff.

Fantastic place to get a quiche. I really enjoyed the southwest quiche but the coffee was only alright

Food is awful. Drinks are overpriced for what they are. The only place I wouldn't recommend around here. Too bad.

a wonderful place to meet up with a friend, or alone for coffee and a bite to eat. It's friendly, warm, and the staff is so welcoming. Art hangs from the walls and they really care about providing excellent service. I love this place read more

This is my new favorite place. The people are very welcoming and efficient. I absolutely love the chicken pecan salad sandwich, which I take to the porch, enjoying the atmosphere and friendly people. It definitely embodies small town charm. read more

New store is wonderful, so much room and cozy. Food and coffee were excellent. Service was pretty quick.

Arrived by 9am on. Friday - out of all of their cinnamon rolls. The chocolate chip muffin tasted slightly old/hard. Breakfast sandwiches (only bread choice was croissant) were okay. Scones were very good. Didn't try any coffee drinks. Service was good - cute place. Decent choice if staying in the North Beach area. read more

I love supporting small local businesses anytime I'm on travel. The pictures uploaded on yelp looked fantastic so we had to give it a try. The chocolate chip/toffee cookie was amazing but the croissants weren't doing much for us. 2 croissants and 1 cookie for nearly $20 was enough to make this a one time visit for us. read more

Not sure why people like this place except that it's the ONLY coffee place in town. The specialty coffees are way overpriced and not very good. I actually prefer Starbucks to this (and I generally don't like chains) and you get more for your money there, surprisingly. I've had their caramel coffee, lavender coffee, and decaf. All were meh and definitely not worth the price. The avocado toast is terrible. Tastes like store-bought guacamole spread on mediocre toast. The cookies are dry. Honestly, I just don't understand the appeal of this place. read more

It's just ok. Good location, good vibe, but the food is only ok and the coffee as well for the price.
