I didn't go to Wingen expecting a spiritual awakening. I just wanted some pizza and maybe a cookie or two. But what happened inside that bakery was something deeper... something sacred. First of all, let me set the record straight, I don't eat pizza crust. Never have. It's just a dry handle, a chewable reminder that the good part is over. I am a cheese-and-sauce purist. Or... I was. Then I took a bite at Wingen. It started slow... just a casual nibble on the end. And then something happened. My eyebrows raised. My ancestors whispered, "Child, you've been living a lie." That crust? Golden. Flavorful. Chewy with a little crackle on the edge like it trained in Italy but grew up in Brooklyn. I ate the entire slice. And then another. I didn't even look back. I'm a new person now. Now, let's talk desserts. I tried every single one. (Don't judge me, I was in a moment.) Every bite was like being hugged by a tiny sugar angel. Not a single miss. If I had to pick a favorite, I can't, because that's not fair to the others. The Basque Cheesecake!! WAIT! the tiramisu!! but one critique the ice cream sandwiches should be sold in a 4 pack box. And the low-fi cocktails? Chill, bright, and oddly meditative. Like a spa day for your tongue. I drank one and immediately wanted to lay in a field and reevaluate my priorities. By the time I left Wingen, I wasn't the same person. I went in craving cheese and left worshipping crust, drunk on tomato pie and emotional over the ice cream sandwich. If food can be poetry, this place is a haiku that hits you in the feelings. Don't dodge the bar seating. Eric, Mary, and Jermey at the Bar had great service and were so friendly, knew a great deal about the food and the bar program. Go. Go now. Bring friends. Or don't. More for you. read more

The space is amazing filled with community, art, and nothing is hidden of what is being made! Quality is the size of their mindfulness to love its staff, customers, and city they keep telling their story. If you want a big market store bake goods using goodness knows what in their products, just skip this spot and move on... read more

Wingen - Cheesy Everything-JTM Spice Blend Breakfast Sandwich (Bacon, Egg, Cheese, Mayo), Range Life Hot Sauce & Ice Honey Latte! - Bakeries Near Me - Livermore, California

First visit to Wingen's Bakery after a year hiatus. Big mistake on our part waiting so long. Staff is super friendly. You place your order at the counter and they bring it to you. Plenty of seating inside if you get there after the rush. Menu is not large but also plenty of delicious looking bakery items displayed. My wife and I ordered 2 orders of avocado toast, decaf coffee and a hot chocolate. The avocado toast was perfectly toasted and generous avocado. Coffee & hot chocolate were served at a good temp and tasty. We will go again and recommend it highly. The bakery is young child friendly with plenty of items for kids to occupy themselves. read more

Food and presentation 10/10 Clean seating areas Easy walk up register to order A bit of a wait for items ordered so if your working there it's chill, if you're in a rush the wait might be min 15 min. Taste of the espresso, sweets, and bagels 10/10! This was a pit stop on my way out of SF, would come back again. Staff was sweet. read more

I am a big fan of this bakery. I love introducing it to my friends and family when they come to visit. One of my go to things to eat is their breakfast sandwich. The egg yolk is always cooked to gooey perfection. All of the employees are very friendly, even when they are super busy. I love that there are lots of places to sit, indoor and outdoor on the patio. They even have a cute little area for kids to play. I love their fresh sourdough and all the pastries they have on display. read more

I brought a friend because I loved Wingen so much the first time. I wanted to add some pictures. We had the breakfast sandwich: amazing! Avocado toast again: divine! I ordered a chocolate chip cookie and I liked the texture and the chocolate but it was way too salty for me. We sat inside this time and I loved the artwork on the wall especially this one that I posted. The painting was done on an old window! So clever and creative. Great place again! read more

I'm a big sucker for fresh sourdough bread and glad I brought one !! It came piping hot the oven it's was dreamy to take a big bite out of it! We also got some pastry to try- Coconut chai spiral croissant wasn't my thing but the chocolate KA was enjoyed ! Worth a stop to support this local business in the area read more

Avocado toast is good, but be warned, the crust is EXTRA CRUSTY and was toasted too much so it had a char flavor :( Once you get past the crust, the inner portion of the toast is great! Plentiful amount of avocado and olive oil. Maybe could use a pinch more salt (but I'm a lover of flaked/course salt). Menu is smaller this time compared to my previous visit, but there's still enough options; however, I can't say that about the baked goods case. Come early if you want any of those goodies. Service is good. Place is spacious and plenty of tables to get some work done. It's a little noisy inside. read more

Breakfast sandwich with ham is my go too favorite thing. You must MUST try a pastry they have amazing flavors! I love love their cinnamon rolls. They have homemade Carmel and so a Carmel iced latte is a go too also! read more

I used to come here when it was a bakery and did the occasional pizza night. Loved it back then but they've completely remodeled. It's even better now. We went for breakfast and then went back for dinner on our day trip to Livermore. Everything we had was good but special mention to the pizza. I love pizza. I seek out good pizza restaurants wherever we go.... this is really good pizza. Refreshing cocktails and a great selection of beers. Egg sandwich is still a legend. Everything is just good. Go. Lovely local business. read more

Nothing but love for this place. We've met one of the owners Bryan who has been nothing but kind to my wife and I. GREAT bread, really good coffee and service and fantastic place to sit down and enjoy your food. Bring the family and bring your friends and support small businesses like Bryan and Aimee. read more

Amazing bread! Pizza is to die for! Had a great time in the restaurant for dinner with family for my grand daughter's birthday! Service was excellent! Highly recommend! read more

Stopped here while driving through for lunch Service was not as expected and slow. Food was average at best No need to return. read more

I had high hopes for this bakery, but our orders were a bit too salty. My daughter and I both ordered the ham and cheese croissant and she even pointed out it was too salty before I mentioned anything. My husband had the closed faced salmon bagel with a cheesy everything bagel. I had a small bite of that and it was also salty. My husband said he liked it though. Maybe I'll try something different the next time we stop by. read more

The pizza was amazing! The service was great. I will definitely go back and try something different.

9/20/24- We went to check out classics night for cheesesteaks yesterday. The line was sooo long but you could smell the aroma outside! Got there at 5:30p. The line kept getting longer, but it was moving slow. I ordered and paid at the register at 6:15. They told me it was an estimated 1 hour wait, so we walked to Big Apple to get a slice, and then to Verace for some gelato afterwards. Walked back to Wingen, they had already sold out, but everyone was waiting on their orders. I didn't get my food until 8pm. It was almost 2 hrs turnaround time, which I let slide because Wingen has my heart. I ordered a mushroom/vegetarian and it was super salty, but the flavors were good. It came with provolone and peppers. I wish the onions were caramelized or grilled longer. The cheese was my favorite part. I would have preferred white or portobello mushrooms over maitake, but it was good, I still enjoyed it. $17 for my sandwich. My husband and daughter got the classic as is. They loved it. The meat is wagyu beef. My son also got classic, but no onions and subbed with cheese wiz. He loved it! I saw JTM make it and he slathered on the wiz on the hoagie bottom, then the beef, then bathed the meat again in the cheese. He did not skimp! The classics were $18, cheese wiz is an extra $2. Eating the cheesesteaks made me forget about the 2.5 hr wait for a late dinner, but not sure I'd wait that long again next time. Their pizzas are still great, so are their bagels, egg sandwiches, pastries, especially the s'mores spiral croissants, I wish they'd bring that back again! Will still come back and support my favorite what I like to call "Luke's Diner of Livermore." =D read more

After eating at a local place, we decided to stop by this bakery that everyone seemed to come out of. Really good bakery! The Olive bread was awesome. I don't usually eat bread, but I couldn't stop eating this freshly baked Olive bread. Not sure if they had any seasonal butters to go along with their bread selection but I could see it pairing well with some great butters! My favorite was the Matcha cookie! I think it was a white chocolate drizzle on the top and made the combination go super well together. You can taste the matcha flavors but not too overwhelming. Cookie held up great and still moist and not too soft. Perfect! Forgot the name of the 3rd item I got but it was decent. Kind of reminded me of a fig newton. Black cherry and almond slice. Clean space with plenty of seating. Cute little place to meet a friend or have your cup of coffee solo with some nice treats. Service was great as well! They work super fast and they were all very nice. Will be back for sure! read more

First time visit. W bakery has two entrances: one for sit down type of meal, second is grab and go. At full service they offer light meals: like sandwiches and breakfast with hot/ cold beverages. At grab and go: their freshly backed sourdough breads, bakery items and coffee. We went to full service: I got coffee latte and croissant, my daughter got mortadella sandwiches and cappuccino. BTW: for milk choice were available only whole milk and oat milk. My coffee and croissant were very good: rich and flavorful, croissant fresh and flaky. My daughter loved her sandwich. read more

Been here twice now and can't recommend it enough! Make sure you go early in the day though, as stuff tends to be sold out by the afternoon. All the sandwiches are excellent, as is the vibe inside. Service was very nice as well. Overall I've had a few of their sandwiches and all their bagels and everything was fantastic! Highly recommend stopping by! read more

Excellent food and service. I have enjoyed everything I have ever ordered for breakfast or lunch including beverages.

My daughter & I are huge fans! We used to go once a week until life got too busy to do so. during that time we were always recognized and felt so welcomed and loved. The food was always so good & fresh. Never had anything that I didn't like. My daughter is constantly asking me when can we go back to "the bagel store" as she calls it, & also says frequently " I miss the good old days when we used to go to the bagel store" read more

This place perfectly exemplifies why I love Livermore. It's community oriented, welcoming, amazing food, comfortable atmosphere.

Definitely order the meatballs... make sure to get the focaccia bread to go with it so you can dip in the sauce. Great service great food read more

Super cute bakery in Livermore for meeting up with friends/catching up! I personally like that they also have bagels and breakfast sandwiches in addition to coffee. Inside is super aesthetic but they also have a good amount of seating for meeting up with friends since they have an attached room. Parents seem to also bring kids here as well, so it's quite a bustling place! read more

Great food and atmosphere, but I went here because of all the reviews that mentioned they have many gluten free items. They do not. They have on gluten free muffin, but do not offer gluten free substitutes for their bread. Don't go here expecting many options if you are gluten free. Their bacon and eggs were really good though. read more

Everything I've ever got from here has been fantastic, from the baguettes to the pop tarts and all in between. There is nothing like fresh baked goods. Eat it there, take it home, you won't be disappointed. read more

My wife and I had a very sub par experience here. Long story short the food came out late (they must have forgot to put the order in) and was Luke warm at best by the time we got it. We reached out to management and were given a refund. Not a huge deal but what upset me is that my Wife left a review describing the experience and it was removed from Yelp. So this is a PSA that this business removes negative reviews, just keep that in mind as you are making your decisions. read more

This place is AMAZING!!! I had the sausage sandwich and it was one of the best ones I've ever had. But most importantly, we had Ember as our server and she was 20/10. I've never felt more taken care of at a restaurant than with her helping us. I will be asking for her shifts so we can have Ember. Next time you're driving through Livermore, you must stop at Wingen! read more

We came here for sourdough bread on a Saturday around 12pm, but they already sold out. We ended up getting tea and a couple bagels. Bagels were delicious and they were very generous with the tea. I'll definitely need to come back earlier next time to try their more popular options. read more

If you are commuting from 205 to 680 during the morning rush, Wingen Bakery would be one of the best place to stop by midway for a light bite -- All of their egg-based sandwiches never go wrong. And another word, Bagel. read more

I got the yogurt and granola bowl and a cookie while hanging here for a couple hours. I was waiting for someone at a medical appointment and needed to work. This was the perfect place to hang. The yogurt bowl had fresh figs and was delicious. The chocolate chip cookie was gone before I got to the table. The staff here and super friendly. There were other folks here working and eating breakfast so it seems they've got a good thing going. read more

The service is fabulous, everyone is in a good mood (or at least putting on their game face for customers!). It was our first time here so we had questions and the staff were patient and answered everything without making us feel rushed. We settled on an Americano with mocha, caramel latte (light on the caramel), blueberry pancakes and avocado toast. The drinks were perfect. I don't like super sweet drinks and my Americano with mocha was just right. Hubby loved his latte - I took a sip and you could taste the real caramel; not a sugary syrup!! The pancakes were cooked to perfection, the blueberries popped in our mouth and the pancakes weren't too fluffy or thin. The edges had a tiny crisp to them. I mean, they couldn't have been any better. The avocado toast was fabulous. The bread is sourdough heaven, and the sliced avocado (way better than mashed), and the seasoning brought it all together. We came from the east bay on the recommendation of a friend. We can't wait to come back! read more

Heard many great things about this place from friends and this has to be by far the best bread I have had!!! I first heard about this place after trying the restaurant range life in Livermore which is about a block away from this place. I remember ordering the bread and butter and it was to die for!!! I am very picky when it comes to my bread and this bread blew my mind away. I craved the bread ever since and after finding out that the bread was from a local bakery I had to buy more so that I could satisfy my cravings. I ordered the country loaf and it was so soft, moist and fresh! The bread was super big and was $10. They also have other breakfast items, bagels and other breads/pastries but will need to try next time. I recommend ordering ahead as they only make a certain quantity a day and can hold bread for you. There is also decent amount of seating for you if you want to sit down inside and some tables outside as well. Overall the staff were super nice and friendly and will need to come back again. read more

Wingen is a gem of a bakery! First of all, their sourdough bread is top notch. I love buying a loaf and making avocado toast at home. Secondly, their coffee is amazing. They serve Four Barrel from SF and it's the best coffee I've had in Livermore. Their lattes are perfect (and no extra charge for oat milk!). Finally, their baked goods are exquisite. From the lemon cheesecake bar to the cinnamon roll, everything I've tried has been delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful - I always appreciate their recommendations. The space is bright and airy - a great spot to hang out with friends in downtown. Their avocado toast and lox bagel are shockingly expensive, but otherwise Wingen is absolutely perfect. :) read more

Wingen is located very close to where I work in Downtown Livermore. You order at the counter & they deliver it to your table. There's indoor & a shaded outdoor area w picnic benches to enjoy your meal. There's also a play area for kiddos indoors. I think they have the best bagels in town. (I hope they do a pumpkin one sometime!) Their open face veggie sandwich on a cheesy-everything bagel is my favorite thing they have! Yesterday I finally tried the infamous *patty melt* after my co-worker has raved about it for close to a year. In fact my party of 3 ALL ordered the patty melt. We all enjoyed it. I loved the caramelized onions and the bites w the seeds on the semolina bread. I would definitely order it again. It kinda reminded me of a French onion burger, it was good. But still my fave is the veggie! read more
