These people seriously know how to bake. That may seem like an unnecessary statement, but not all bakeries have skilled and artistic professionals like OWL Bakery does. They have a passion and love for the craft, and it shows in the baked goods they produce. Hands down, come here and get some of the highest quality baked goods you'll ever taste... then get extras to take home!

The pastry chefs here are doing amazing things- no exaggeration, rivaling Europe's best. The savory danish is a unicorn bakery delight. Also, the best espresso I have tasted in years- full of bright citrus notes.

Amazing bakery. Got the cream cheese maple apple danish and it was one of the best pastries I've ever enjoyed. Good espresso and the tip was included so that was nice to see they take care of their people. Comfy seating and street parking was easy to find right outside. Could not take a picture before most of the goods were enjoyed so I apologize, but that should be a testament to how great it was. Got two pastries and only meant to eat one and save another for later and ended up smacking both in a matter of ten minutes.

WOW! Best pastries I’ve ever tried in the United States. All of which were fresh and had the perfect blend of flavors and correct texture.

The Rose Almond Croissant was buttery, flaky and crunchy outside while being soft and sweet inside partly due to the almond paste.

The Cardamon Bun was crunchy outside and soft inside with the perfect amount of Cardamon.

The sweet Danish was sweet with a hint of acidity and the perfect dough texture.

Did not take more than 5min to order and receive my food. The hot latte was creamy and perfect amount of coffee for me.

I do advise you to go before 10:00am if you want to try all of their delicious pastries and quiche.

Will absolutely come back again.

Stop reading reviews and order from here. Flavorful, fresh, flaking, fabulous freaking bakery. Clearly a talented chef is working here. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. The coffee and tea was amazing too. We brought home 4 baked goods and they were gone before we made it home.

This coffee shop/bakery is outstanding, rivals any great European bakery. The pastries are delicious and the orange blossom cappuccino is outstanding as are the different breads. My only regret is that I live 2 hours from this place!!

Got some fresh warm porridge bread and a lemon tart! The bread was definitely the star. Loaded with flax (the first pic doesn't show it, but trust me) and sunflower seeds, it tasted very fluffy but hearty, and somehow buttery. I wish I lived closer because I can't go back to regular bread after this! Hands down one of the best bread I've ever tasted. The tart was very good too, and balanced.

Outstanding pastries! If you’re a foodie like me you can certainly appreciate the obvious excellence in technical skill displayed in every morsel. Even my parents, who think Costo croissants are great, bit into their OWL croissants and immediately noted the multitude of crispy, flaky layers that were simultaneously tender in the middle. I love the Portuguese tarts—not too sweet but rich and creamy. I’ve gotten the everything danish a couple times, and it’s like a decadent everything bagel, it’s so unusual yet so delicious. I also love a good mocha or hot chocolate with my pastries, and they make good ones, nice and chocolatey. If you owe yourself an excellent pastry you need to hit OWL!

Stoked we were able to grab some pastries this morning before hitting the road! Arrive 10 minutes before they opened and was 6th in line. By the time we left there were probably 10 people in line behind us!

They are operating a walk up window system and asking their guests to mask up! There was plenty of outdoor seating but we took ours to go!

Service was quick and friendly. Everything we ordered was delicious and I even grabbed a tote! We had the following pastries:

Morning Bun - absolutely must order
Sweet Danish - strawberry was fantastic
Ham & Cheese Croissant- Yummmmm
Lemon Tart - BEAUTIFUL!!!
Pastelito - perfect combo of guava paste and cream cheese

We also snagged a piece of quiche which had spring onions and was super tasty as well!

Definitely recommend visiting this bakery! My partner has a coffee with cream and their vanilla cardamom syrup which I’m assuming they make in house. We saw some of the bread going out, and regretted our decision to purchase bread before we left for our trip!

Thank you Owl Bakery for making delicious food for your community to enjoy!

A cozy cafe with some unique pastries and coffee/tea based drinks. Great place for a quick breakfast at an independent place!

We are new in town. Everyone we know raves about the OWL....and for good reason. I walked over from our little rental bungalow to see if the hype was for real. I bought a single item to transport home to share with my wife.

The OWL is an Owlstanding [forgive the pun -- maybe the delirium from a first bite -- bakery based on our little sample and we imagine will intrigue us on all the other baked goods.

I was holding off on my review but had to commend the staff. I paid in cash and asked if there was a tip jar -- the response was that tips are built into the price. Cool...we always tip well but the built-in tip addresses the rampant issue of tip shaming.

We will be back.

Bakery of my dreams 🤩. Sampled several pastries and all were top notch and delicious. Plenty of options to choose from which is fun. Latte was creamy and delicious. Will definitely come back when I can

The highlight is the croissant, they are wonderful and reminiscent of the French. This unit has a parking lot just around the corner before you arrive, a welcoming atmosphere and all fresh savory/sweet items. unmissable stop!

A very cute bakery and amazing pastries!! My favorite was the maple cream danish. The spiced cider with dulce de leche exuded the feelings of fall. They ran out of morning buns right before we ordered, but there were still plenty of options.

Joe was a beautiful man and fantastic host. The pastries are at a National level of excellence. The coffee was just as good. Ambiance was out side only with a walk up window, but it worked perfectly. Not sure about the parking, seemed tough but we were able to pull right up to the loading zone. 5 star cafe!!!

Fantastic bakery. If you want to know what a true croissant tastes like, this place has it. Just.... Mwuah. Better get there early. I arrived at 8 when they open and by the time I left there was 15 people already in line. They go til they sell out of goods, which most of the time is before closing. I also bought two French bread rolls. I could eat them everyday.

Amazing, kind, friendly staff! Did not have any baked goods, but did have delicious drinks. Would recommend to anyone! The shrub was out of stock, so I'll be back soon to try it!

Such a fun bakery! Amazing espresso, and their gluten free tea cakes (financiers, I think) were the best gluten free pastries I've ever had at a bakery

While traveling the country during the pandemic, we’ve been to our fair share of bake shops, and OWL stands out among the many places we’ve tried. Not sure if it’s the back patio where we’ve enjoyed our treats warmed by the sun, or if it’s the charm of the small yet mighty operation, but this spot won’t be forgotten. Actually, it’s definitely the fact that everything here is just so good. (Don’t skip on the quiche!) Come early in the day before everything sells out!
