Anytime I get/ have to take a field trip for / during working hours, I always look to Yelp for coffee and or baked goods. I recently had to be in the downtown Glendale area - the Yelp machine recommended I hit up Blue Corn Cafe. There's some development / construction in the downtown area so parking is a little limited. However - I was able to snag a spot right along 58th Ave and get a good view of all the cute shops to check out at a later date. Blue Corn was surprisingly busy that morning due to hosting a Coffee with Cops event. I got the low down from a few of the GPD staff that they are consistently rated as one of the best cafes in the city, maybe even the West Valley. They have recently-ish opened up a second location in DT Mesa, which definitely fits their vibe. I was told the owner gets up early every day to bake - I love the dedication to his craft. Like many mom and pops, there are times when quantities are limited. So ofc I had to buy some baked goods to go for my work team! Their muffins are HUGE - like 2 -3 servings per *singular* muffin. I didn't know what I was getting into when I bought 6... hello carb heaven for us. I noticed a lot of sweet and savory options - croissant sandwiches, cookies, you name it. Definitely the muffins were well-enjoyed by all (PSL, lemon-blueberry, red velvet), and the general consensus was lemon blueberry as the winner. It's a small space with not a lot of seating options however there appears to be a back patio that might be shared with other restaurants. I couldn't get a view on my way out. Cannot wait for the next time that I'm in the area to grab more sweets! read more

Came for a quick stop--left planning my next trip back. I had about a two-hour break during a track meet and noticed a small line forming outside this bakery in downtown Glendale--so I decided to go on a little adventure. This was my first stop, and I'm so glad it was. The café itself is absolutely charming--spacious, clean, and with plenty of seating. But what stood out immediately was the customer service. From the moment I walked in, everyone was smiling. You can tell this is a team that genuinely enjoys what they do. Despite the line, they were patient, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Their coffee selection is wide but not overwhelming. . I went with the matcha latte with pistachio, which was well-balanced. When it came to food, I couldn't decide between my usual go-to (broccoli and cheese quiche) or the bacon, spinach, and cheddar--or even the tomato basil, which sounded amazing. I asked the barista/ server to choose for me, and she recommended the bacon, spinach, and cheddar. It did not disappoint. The crust was thick and perfectly done, and the filling was layered and flavorful--just incredible. I also ordered an ube muffin and was given a complimentary lemon tart (no complaints here!). The ube muffin was exactly what you'd hope for--lightly sweet with a delicate blend of vanilla, nutty notes, and a hint of coconut. The lemon tart was perfectly balanced--bright, slightly tart, and complemented beautifully by the whipped topping. Before leaving, I grabbed a loaf of sourdough to go. They even offered to slice it for me--small detail, big win. And I have to say, coming from San Francisco, I do not say this lightly: this is hands-down some of the best sourdough I've had outside of San Francisco. Honestly worth the 45-minute drive just for that alone. I come from a background in the restaurant industry, and great service doesn't go unnoticed. Everyone here was attentive, kind, and truly invested in the experience they provide. The customer service alone is worth the visit. They so offer Panini's and daily soups.. Their menu changes daily. They also offer Louisiana hot sauce so someone knows what they're doing. I can't wait to bring my kids here next time. We will absolutely be back. read more

I stumbled upon blue corn bakery in downtown Glendale, Az. So grateful and lucky for me! Iv been twice, their sourdough jalapeno bread and quiche is to die for. You must try both- they are both melt in your mouth divine. The muffins, quiches and sourdough bread -all so beyond delicious. Adorable seating areas and tables, enough for everyone. They had hot sour dough bread as samples and it's so good, like melt in your mouth good, grandma good, I'm happy I'm here good and drive across town to get some --cuz it's that's good ! I also got a matcha muffin- which tasted divine. I could hear Angels sing, it had so much delicious matcha flavor. Red Devils food muffin, which almost brought tears to my eyes of how delicious it was. I had a lavender frosted cupcake, quite good but not like my other goodies. And my divine heavenly and fantastical delicious jalapeno cheddar sourdough. They slice bread there for you. Def try it this place out. Everything there is fluffy baked & delicious and magical. I'll prob go back tomorrow! *** I did go back and enjoyed matcha muffin. Amazing matcha taste- I loved it. I also got a delicious pistachio muffin that tasted incredible like a fluffy cake and very pistachio flavored. This is the type place you would drive for miles to get stuff, wait in line, park far away and just be so happy they didn't sell out of your favorites. They def have Angels baking in this kitchen. read more

If you are ever within the Glendale area, please stop on by this amazing indigenous-owned small bakery and cafe! My boyfriend and I had this on our "cafe hopping" bucket list, as we saw this ranked number #24 for the "Top 100 Coffee Shops" within the US. We had a trip out to Phoenix for a concert (We are from Las Vegas), and remembered that this cafe was really close by. So, we had our expectations set high, and let me tell you, this place went above and beyond anything we expected. I want to start off by showing appreciation to all the people there. Shoutout to Trevor, Monique, and Natalie for delivering excellent service and being just the best. They were not only so kind, but funny and made the cafe feel like a second home. It was our first time in the bakery and within Phoenix in general, and they made us feel so welcomed. They offered samples, and even a free pastry or two. That type of service and kindness is rare, so I want to show my gratitude for their hospitality. Besides the great people there, they have AMAZING pastries and drinks. My boyfriend and I were quite speechless during our time there, as every item we sipped on or took a bite out of was perfection. For our drinks, my boyfriend ordered a Passionfruit Jasmine Tea and I got the Desert Pear refresher with Lotus Energy. The tea was divine, as it was herbal and sweet. The refresher? REFRESHING. It definitely gave me an energy boost, and fun fact: it's a healthier plant-based alternative! Now for the food we tried, and we did try a LOT, so buckle up. The Ube Muffin was our favorite. It was rich and sweet, so it felt like I was eating something out of my childhood as I myself am Filipino. The Chocolate Mousse Dome was heavenly decadent. The Cherry Tart was fruity and not too sweet which was amazing. The Spinach and Feta quiche was savory, which complimented all the sweet treats we got. Their in-house baked Sourdough bread is beyond delicious, which paired well with their soup of the day, which was Tomoto Bisque. The Caprese Panini was amazing, and it also paired greatly with the soup. Lastly, my other favorite, the Gluten-Free Honey Lavender Cheesecake. I am not at all a cheesecake person, but this was my favorite thing ever. It was light and subtle, yet sweet and refreshing. I could go on and on about the food, so we took some home for the road as well. Again, please visit this amazing bakery and cafe for yourself. There is amazing people, delicious food, and refreshing drinks waiting for you here. I personally can't wait to come back and try more things!!! read more

I found this place on instagram originally and had it on my list to try! My husband and I finally made it in on a Saturday and had a great experience. We got the tomato basil quiche and lemon blueberry muffin to share (plus a couple coffee's) both were great! The blueberry Leon muffin was huge and bursting with fresh blueberry when you cut into it. Can't wait to try more flavors. Best part was the pastry chef was coming by adding to the case and he said hello & gave us a lavender crustless cheesecake he was finishing up. Wow - the whipped topping on the cheesecake was amazing. And customer service in general. We got to chat with him on our way out too. He is big on local and fresh ingredients which we appreciate. Definitely will be back! read more

Actually found this lovely spot on Yelp and was amazed by the reviews so we had to stop in. Immediately we were welcomed coming into the door and caught the variety of sandwiches and quiches available in a glass container. The store is long, and there is seating area in front and then in the back past the counter where you pay. But as we waited in line (looked busy-ish for a Sunday midday) we continued to get more mouth watering sensations with the treats we kept seeing. We were offered fresh sourdough to try, which was SO GOOD, and so we knew we had to purchase a loaf to take home! But what we ended up trying was the bacon breakfast sandwich (2), and the spinach bacon quiche. Also ordered a hazelnut latter, a tuxedo cappuccino and a peppermint mocha cappuccino too! All of what we ordered was DELICIOUS! The quiche was probably the best quiche I've had, it was fluffy eggs on the inside, so nicely seasoned and the outside crust was perfectly crisp. We wished we'd ordered another to try but it was actually enough. The breakfast sandwich they toast for you and so that came out nice and hot too, the gooey cheese inside was so great, and they serve you hot sauce at the table and that just gave it an extra yummy little kick to the already amazing brek items we ordered. Lastly, we decided to try the biscoff cheesecake and unfortunately didn't even get a pic of it, it was soooo goooood! The take home sourdough was fantastic, just had it this morning with some eggs for brek and there's just something about it that just tasted amazing! We'll be back but you'd be finding yourself a regular go-to spot if you choose to come here. You'll definitely leave beyond satisfied! Thank you, Blue Corn Cafe & -Bakery!! read more

I walked by this place several times before finally stopping in. I just scarfed down a cookie from somewhere else, but I thought I could grab something for the next day if I wanted. They had so many beautiful and yummy-looking options. Before I could even make up my mind, I was offered to try their sourdough bread. Soooo delicious! If I had time to eat a whole loaf before my flight in two days, I would have bought some. Anyway, I decided on a coffee cake treat. It looked amazing. As I was paying, the person at the counter walked away and came back with a free lemon tart. They stated since it was my first time, they wanted me to try that too. Super sweet!! Thank you so much! :) I had a bite of each when I got home, and they were amaaaazing! I usually don't go for tarts, but I might now because I really liked it. It was a lemon tart and absolutely delicious. The coffee cake was excellent as well. Plenty of seating inside. And great service! Highly recommend. read more

We made a last minute stop right before they closed, and it was such a great experience! The service was amazing, the vibes were on point, and we felt really welcomed. Definitely coming back Thank you for the great customer service! *noticed a lot of room to chill in case anyone is looking for a spot for some good coffee and study time read more

What a great find! Visiting Glendale and need a pastry fix? Oh so good. Quiche = great, coffee= very good , muffins & cookie = very good, sourdough bread ( later in the evening) beyond great! Top that off with the friendliest of staff = great visit ! read more

WOW. The service 5 stars. The owner was so nice talking to use about the bread and pastries. You could hear the love in her voice. The sourdough made by her husband best I've ever had. I known sourdough is easy to make but why leave it to a professional and it will melt in her mouth. The cookies are as big as your hand spend out plus they are a little bit sized differently which tells you homemade not some cookie cutter same same boring. If you are looking for a homemade small business to satisfy your sweet craving stop by Blue corn cafe in downtown Glendale you will not be disappointed. read more

We stopped into this bakery after brunch. The zucchini bread was so warm and fluffy. The carrot cake was absolutely amazing! The breads were so light and fluffy.

I saw this place on google while looking for blue corn recipes little did I know it was a short drive away I went the same day. Such a quaint, calming little bakery with beautiful native art that makes the space feel warm and welcoming. The owner I believe his name was Alex was incredibly friendly and we even got to see fresh quiche being made while we were there. Everything we tried was delicious! From the sandwiches to the five different desserts we sampled. I can't wait to come back and try more of their blue corn specialties! read more

Gotta say - I have not spent much time in downtown Glendale. Was pleasantly surprised when I ran across Blue Corn Cafe. Stopped in to get a coffee, but ended up with a muffin and a coffee. The service is fast and fast friendly, the vibe is mellow and welcoming, and the baked good were delicious. The selection of baked goods was quite good - cookies, cakes, muffins, croissants, and macarons. I opted from a blueberry muffin - it was tall and full of blueberries. The outside was nicely crispy as well. Almond milk latte (iced) was good as well. The rest of the pastries looked really good, but no way was I getting through more than one.. N*joy! read more

Blue Corn Cafe is one of those places that keeps you coming back. The standout for me is their sourdough bread. It's everything great sourdough should be: crusty on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, with just the right amount of tang. It's easily some of the best sourdough I've had anywhere. Beyond the bread, everything is fresh, thoughtfully made, and consistently delicious. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and genuinely seem to care about their customers. read more

We have an event in Glendale, but wanted to get some treats beforehand. I've had this place on my list for a while and I'm glad we finally made it! It has such a quaint and darling charm inside and outside! All of their food items are in the front, but unfortunately there's no menu board by the register! So you can either ask incessantly what they have or already know what you want. The service was very nice though and they were handing out free samples for the customers to try! There is a lot of seating - some of it mismatched lol but it's cool. As for the food - omg! The strawberry rose muffin is SO GOOD!! We also ordered the lemon cookie, and two breakfast croissant sandwiches to go. My husband ordered a strawberry lemonade - also very good, sweet like candy. I ordered the strawberry vanilla latte which was a nice touch of berry flavor. I would love to come back again! read more

We just wanted to check it out. For some reason, I thought it was more of a sandwich/bakery shop, but they only had 2 kinds of pre-made sandwiches when we came. Hubby tried their Caprese Panini, which he liked a lot. He also got a Key Lime Dome, which looked very good. I got a Croissant, which they warmed up for me. It was lovely. However, they didn't have any butter for me to have with it. Neither of us are really coffee drinkers, so we didn't partake. It seemed like a nice place if you want to have some coffee and pastries, but I was hoping for something a bit more savory. Sadly, I was a bit disappointed by their sandwich selections. read more

Really great food and service! First time here and I really enjoy the food and great atmosphere. I will be a regular. read more

I wish I could give this bakery 10/10 stars but since I cannot 5 stars will do! I was introduced to this bakery a few weeks ago and I couldn't believe the deliciousness I was missing out on! Everything is freshly baked by Chef Nick and his great team! I especially love how this bakery offers sample of the sweet and savory pastries so the customer will know what they are getting before they make their purchase. They also offer various drinks and soups that pair very well with either a sweet pasty or a savory one. I almost forget to mention the delicious jalapeño cheddar sourdough bread. If you don't like that flavor, no worries! They also have a plain sour dough bread option. They will slice your bread in the bakery if you want with their old school bread slicer. I'm a big fan of the zucchini bread and croissants. Nothing beats a fresh croissant and butter on top after putting it in the microwave for 30 seconds! If you like cheesecake tarts or yummy cupcakes, this place is a must try! read more

We can't rave enough out this little gem!! 10/10 RECOMMEND!! The warm lemon blueberry muffin had the best crunchy, chewy texture!!! I have never had a muffin so superb!! That slightly crunchy chewy texture will have me returning again and again!! My daughter got the key lime dome!!! Which had a chocolate crunch shell with amazing moose inside!!! So pretty, almost too pretty to dig into!! 10/10 recommend this little spot. (Coffee and matcha was where they fell short, but I'm not taking any stars off because bakery items are too die for!!! This is just room to grow and I have faith they will!!) Give them a try!! (Not pictured the Ube cheese cake tart!!! So fresh, creamy, texture again SPOT FREAKING ON, gourmet look!! How have we lived near by so long and this is our first time trying out the bakery. Nick said they are opening other locations and even a quick grab and go.

Visited Blue Corn Cafe & Bakery on a small trip to AZ. It was very cute and lots of options for seating. What really made it a 5 star review for us was the service!! Natalie was so kind and attentive and still checked in on us after we had already ordered at the counter. Another worker, did not catch his name unfortunately, also checked on us and offered us samples of their sourdough. For food and drinks they were great quality and very tasty. My favorites were the lemon blueberry muffin and the honey lavender matcha. Would definitely come back here next time we are in AZ !! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. They bake all their own pastries, the service is great, and you can literally taste the quality in every bite. I visited with my family and bought 3 breakfast sandwiches (each one different and all pressed before served), a strawberry muffin (absolutely a must have and I'm not crazy about strawberries), a carrot cake, and a chocolate chip cookie. Don't be shy, give them a try. Their espresso and tea go well with food. I tried everything and enjoyed it. That's extremely uncommon and I'm glad places like this exist. read more

I always wanted to go back, but the hours are not convenient. I randomly swung by one day when I was driving home from the office or driving to my other job. Anyway, what I got was so good that I wanted to go by again between jobs. That visit was great and then I went another day and was telling them I wanted to come the day prior but they were closed. Say less, cause now they are open seven days per week 10am to 2pm! I don't want to spoil it, but they give samples. I have had samples of lemon cookies, sourdough bread, zucchini bread, and jalapeno bread. One day when I was leaving they handed me a zucchini muffin and told me to warm it for like 20-30 seconds. I am not a tomato eater, but I ate one of their ready-made sandwiches that has tomato in it, and I did not even remove it, that is how good they are! They generally have a crowd hanging out at their tables. It is a nice place to sit and have a chat or quick meeting. They have seating in the front and back. They have some other things, like lavender for sale too. Oh, and I discovered on Facebook that they have a banned books book club that meets there too! read more

Stop by to the coolest bakery in Glendale! Right when we walked in, the music selection was on point. I enjoyed the vibes inside the cafe. The owner, Nick, was very friendly and offered free tasting of sour bread. Very tasty! I wanted to try everyone the menu. My mom got a cup of coffee with a carrot cake. I took a sip of the coffee and it was delicious. The carrot cake was perfect, not too sweet, just right. I got an iced chai tea- great sweetness and more on the milky side. I also got a chocolate chip cookie. It was very moist and just the right side snack. Tables were clean. Bathroom was clean. This place was busy the whole time we were there. I'll be coming back! read more

This cute cafe is conveniently located in downtown Glendale. Parking can be challenging since there are only a few spaces in front of the cafe but there is a parking lot not too far away.

I got the quiche, honey lavender coffee, cheesecake tart,chocolate cookie, and zucchini muffin to go and everyone was so delicious and fresh! Nick even gave me a free lemon blueberry muffin.

Amazing experience and my new go-to spot for treats. You walk in and get greeted by Nick and an assortment of samples fresh of the oven. I have returned multiple times now and each is better than before. Too many options to choose from the warm blueberry/strawberry muffins to the delectable quiches and cheesecakes. Atmosphere is inviting and struggle between wanting a treat to go or enjoy the cozy environment. A real gem in the downtown Glendale community and must for all my baked goods enthusiasts.

I stopped in today to pick up a loaf of sourdough after trying one a month ago that my girlfriend had gifted me--and wow, it was just as incredible as I remembered. This was my first time actually visiting the cafe/bakery, and I ended up meeting the owner, Nick. He made both me and my friend Ruthie feel so genuinely welcomed. You can tell he truly cares about his customers; he even greeted other guests by name, which says a lot about how many regulars love this place. While we were waiting for the next batch of sourdough to come out, Nick surprised us with a mini cheesecake he had made. Such a thoughtful gesture and absolutely delicious! As someone born and raised in Arizona, being back in that part of Glendale brought back so many memories. It makes me happy to see the historic area still so full of life and this bakery is definitely part of that charm. I highly recommend stopping by if you get the chance. I'm already looking forward to trying the quiche and soup on my next visit. Thank you, Nick, for making my visit memorable. I'll definitely be back! read more

I came here for a meetup and enjoyed some delicious food and tea! The cafe is very big, lots of places to sit. However, when I arrived, there were a ton of people there, and the line to order was pretty long. But it moved quickly and I was still able to find a seat. This place has a HUGE selection of baked goods including breads, pies, cakes and cookies. First, I tried the apple pie tea and a red velvet cookie. The cookie was delicious and I would probably order one next time too. Soft, and a little chewy. They also had sandwiches to go and I ended up ordering a pesto mozzarella sandwich which was incredible!!!! Highly recommend, and you can also get the sandwiches warmed up. Blue Corn cafe was great, and I would totally come back here for coffee and snacks. read more

Blue Corn Café is such a gem! From the moment I walked in, the customer service stood out. I was greeted right away--by more than one friendly face--and even offered samples before I had a chance to decide what to order. The staff were not only welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable. They patiently answered my questions, made thoughtful recommendations, and never made me feel rushed. That kind of service goes a long way. Food-wise, everything I tried was delightful. The quiche was soft, fluffy, and flavorful--comforting without being heavy. I also went with the zucchini muffin, which had been recommended, and it was spot on: moist, slightly sweet. For something sweet, I sampled both the lemon cookie and a croissant. I'll admit, I don't usually go for croissants, but theirs won me over--they were warm, buttery, and tender, without the dryness or flakiness that can be off-putting. Lemon cookie was soft and sweet, I do wish the lemon flavor was a bit stronger or more tart, but that's a personal preference. The snickerdoodle cookie was good, but not great. It was a large flat cookie, cheer in the middle but was too crunchy around the edges for me. I was pleasantly surprised to discover they serve tiramisu by the slice! On top of that, I noticed they keep breakfast sandwiches wrapped and ready to go--a thoughtful touch for anyone in a rush. The atmosphere inside is cute and welcoming. It doesn't try too hard to be overly modernized; instead, it has a comfortable charm that makes you want to stay awhile. Whether you're popping in for a quick breakfast, grabbing a sweet treat, or lingering over coffee, Blue Corn Café has something to offer. Great service, and a cozy vibe. I'll definitely be back! read more

First time stopping in to Blue Corn Cafe and Bakery, and they did not disappoint. Stayed nearby in historic district of Glendale so they were within walking distance to be able to stop in for a morning treat. Right away, Nick and Trevor were immediately attentive and it was their mission to make sure not only our experience was incredible but that of everyone who walked in! We were offered samples of the items freshly baked and brewed including the pistachio muffin, lemon cookie, strawberry smores latte, and a few others. Nick did a great job explaining all of his favorite recommendations and really going above and beyond to make the experience feel elevated beyond dining in a coffee shop. It really felt like we were at home and being taken care of by family! Not only was the service top tier, but the food was next level amazing! When they say the quiche is their best, they mean it, absolutely devine. All of the pastries also stand out with such unique flavors while also maintaining balance and a nice moist texture. Highly recommend sitting in and staying while you eat. Plenty of places for cute photo ops and good vibes and music, as well as the people too. read more

If love at first bite were a thing, it would happen at Blue Corn Café & Bakery. Their tomato medley, basil, and Boursin cheese quiche was downright divine -- flaky, rich, and perfectly balanced, like it was crafted by someone who understands both flavor and feelings. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, the incredibly friendly owner handed me a strawberry cheesecake tart "on the house." I'm convinced this was an act of both kindness and sabotage, because now I'll be dreaming about it for weeks. Between the warm hospitality and the dangerously good food, Blue Corn Café has officially ruined all other quiches and tarts for me -- and I couldn't be happier about it. read more
