What People Are Saying About Columbia City Bakery

In Short
Colors abound at this friendly neighborhood gathering place, where the espresso machine is always in motion, the staff is friendly and the smell of baking bread fills the air. Hearty breads, like a much beloved walnut loaf and Parisian baguette, are the reason people trek here from all over the city, but danishes, cookies, croissants and more treats are also highly praised and made with seasonal fruit.

The smell as you walk into the bakery is incredible with the smell of fresh baked bread and pasteries. Enjoy it with a cup of espresso what more would you want. The bread keeps me going back.

Columbia City Bakery makes the best bread in Seattle. I know this because my French husband is very particular about his bread. We buy our bread from this delightful little bakery several times each week. We love the Pain de Campagne (country-style) and the traditional Baguette. The croissants are also very good. Pain au chocolat is so-so, they use German chocolate, which just makes a traditional French pastry less French. Overall, this is Seattle's best destination for bread. Buy for daily consumption and special occasions you, your guests and most importantly your mouths will be very impressed!
