Another Yelp suggestion for the books! Like any good social media-famous bakery, there's a long line that moves fast. Embrace it. Get a spot to sit if you can. All of the pastries were unique and delightful in their own way. All in all, you can't go wrong. I had the spelt latte, which was definitely interesting but didn't quite satisfy my sweet tooth. I tasted the lavender latte and that was better! read more

We stopped by Brickmaiden Breads for the first time a couple of weeks ago after lunch, mostly to see what they had. We ended up picking up a few things to go and a couple of treats to enjoy while walking around Point Reyes Station. My hands-down favorite was the Almond Cake. It was moist, flavorful, and just sweet enough without being too sugary, which is a big plus for me. We also tried the meringue, and I liked it for the same reason: it was light and not overly sweet. The staff behind the counter were welcoming and efficient, and they moved the short line along quickly. There is also a small seating area in the back if you want to sit quietly and enjoy your bread or pastry. Overall, it was a very pleasant stop, and I would definitely come back for that Almond Cake. read more

Brickmaiden Breads did not disappoint! Dropping in during our Point Reyes Station visit, the honey adored their focaccia and couldn't stop raving about it, while I ended up ordering an amazing massive meringue and some delicious canned coconut water. The service was friendly and helpful and we loved that they carry simit. I also can't speak highly enough about their gorgeous outside garden area and how lovely it was to sit and enjoy our snacks there. All in all Brickmaiden Breads is an absolutely must-try if you're in the area and I can't recommend them enough! read more

Brickmaiden Breads is a must-visit when you're in Point Reyes Station. This cozy bakery features an outdoor area with plenty of seating, a nice spot for enjoying your bakery items and coffee. Note: it's standing room only inside: so take away or eat outside in the garden. There's usually a line on weekends (and they close early) but it's always worth the wait. The fruit and shortbread cookies & their granola are delicious, as are the pastries. We try to grab the cheese-filled country loaf to take home, which makes a terrific savory toast -- definitely a favorite every time we stop by. read more

Such an adorable and delicious spot. Found parking on a Saturday in early May around noon like 50 yards away. They are busy and had a short line, I spent maybe 10m total waiting to order then waiting for my food to come out. I spent $41.48 on: Toast with (I think goat?) cheese, honey, seeds & flowers - 4.5 stars Rye-chata latte - 4.5 stars Olive oil cake - 4 stars Cinnamon roll - 4.5 stars. Tasty cream & flowers on top. Croissant - 4 stars (for my daughter) Note there's no restroom but a pretty nice public town one a couple blocks away. There's a beautiful garden with several private little seating nooks. I chose a spot under a trellis that had an artsy looking homemade water fountain coming down from a small water tower. Very idyllic to sit here and sip your delicious coffee and have your tastypastry. read more

We stopped by this wonderful bakery before checking out the rest of the Point Reyes Station area. There was a line out the door which was a great sign. They had a wide variety of fresh baked breads, pastries and cookies that are baked on site. My husband had a slice of quiche and a cup of coffee. I decided on the spinach mushroom cheese croissant. We also bought two different loaves of bread, biscotti, cookies and crackers to take home. They had everything displayed so nicely and packaged neatly. We asked if there was a restroom we could use, and they said they didn't have a restroom. I thought that was strange for an establishment that serves food and drinks. They did however tell us where there were public bathrooms close by behind the grocery store about a block up the street. Both the quiche and savory croissant were delicious. We will try the rest of our goodies over the next few days. It's definitely worth stopping here if you are in the area. They do have some seating outside but that's it. read more

Giving this place five stars because of the yummy pastries. But not just because of the pastries -- This place was so cute and it has a little backyard patio situation giving cottage core vibes.

Brickmaiden Breads - Bakeries Near Me - Point Reyes Station, California

A delicious bakery in the heart of Pt Reyes Station. They sell wonderful loaves of sourdough, sweet and savory scones (ginger, chocolate chip, sausage and cheese), cakes and meringues, rye and ciabatta bread. On weekends they have a limited supply of sandwiches and parfaits. The store itself is very small; on weekends the line is usually out the door. There are a handful of small tables and a beautiful garden in the back. Their hours are limited Thursday thru Sunday 8am-2pm only. Best advice is to go as early as you can to beat the crowds and the cyclists!! read more

The hype is real and legitimate. I got a turkey sandwich and a loaf of their olive bread. The sandwich was perfect, with turkey, salami, arugula, tomatoes, cornichons and a nice herbal dressing. The bread has great crust and the interior is so soft and airy. Really fair pricing. read more

This is a MUST when in Point Reyes!!!! One of the best bakeries I've been too! It can get crowded, but the line moves fast. Everything is on point, from the coffee to the pastries to the bread, I can't say enough good things. Service so friendly and welcoming, and they have daily specials of breads and scones etc. they have a nice hug garden out back to sit and enjoy your foods, but inside is just the counter where you order and you can see the kitchen as well which is cool. You have to get the sesame cookies!!!!! Also the focaccia is incredible I'm so sad I only got one piece. The whipped cream in the coffee is so good as well. I've gone here multiple times and each time leaves me craving more!!!!! If you go to Toby's fees barn, you'll also see some of this bakery items by the checkout area as well! read more

Drove out to Point Reyes yesterday to check out this bakery. I've had plenty of their bread dr the Marin farmers market but this was my first time visiting the bakery. Their breads are always exceptionally good! Super cute spot, service was great and loved all their offerings. I will definitely be buying more! read more

The line out front moved quickly so I figured that this bakery has to be good . Then once inside it's easy to understand why folks wait. We sampled the seeded baguette which was delicious, a spelt cookie that my hubby gobbled up before I was able to snap a pic and a plum meringue. All, so good! Next time will enjoy some of their teas/ coffees as well as other sourdough offerings. The ambience is welcoming. Folks working here are super helpful and kind. read more

I got the following peach streusel, ficelle sandwich, and (not pictured) Bergamont and Rose snickerdoodle, as well as as Rye-Chatta latte with oat milk. Everything tasted so fresh and delicious. The ingredients are so rich. Great service and beautiful interior as well as their outside garden. Would love to come back again the next morning to try their other products ! See their website or check out any signs in store about their pop-up events. They even have pop-up barbecue. EDIT: went back the next day for the Farmers market. Once again the pastries did not disappoint. Got the almond cake--highly recommend! So divine! They also had a pop-up BBQ with brisket and a side of coleslaw and delicious bread. I made a sandwich out of it. Best I've had in a long time! read more

Great daily selection of breads, scones and cookies. Specials change daily and they offer coffee, matcha, and specialty espresso-based drinks. On the Sunday we went they were offering a rose bergamot snickerdoodle cookie that my wife loved and a delicious olive fougasse, shaped like a giant pretzel, salted and crispy. Can't wait to come back to try the cheese rolls and the filled meringue read more

This was a small charming bakery / coffee shop. It's small but mighty with what they offer. I forgot what exact toast I got but it was divine! So yummy!! Our Coffee was also great. The staff were also incredibly sweet and helpful. If I were to be back in this area , I would definitely come back. read more

5 stars for the breads (the rye and baguette were great) but 3 stars for the breakfast items (burrito and pastries were only OK), plus it took quite a while for them to just heat up the burrito when there was no one in line ahead of us and they said the burritos were all pre-made. read more

The food is was top notch especially the on house carbs both savory & sweet. The meringue muffin with hazelnuts, orange , etc. was excellent. Sales service was good & they were helpful in explaining what we were eating. The ambiance was delightful. There is no indoors seating but there are a bunch of scattered tables in the back garden with a large separate eating area as well. I highly recommend it if you are in Point Reyes station. Particularly because my daughter-in-law does much of the pastry prep. read more

Best bread ever!! While visiting in the area had the chance to try several. The baguettes, scones, and olive oil cake are delicious. Even better with some local butter and cheese. read more

Absolutely amazing from the service to the breads, pastries, and coffee!! Iced mocha with homemade whip was the best I've had in a while, perfect balance of espresso and chocolate. Their bread is very good. We had the tartine with smoked mozzarella and the mozzarella tomato sandwich, perfect!! Also you cannot miss their cookies, they are the best!! It's a small space inside but plenty of space outside to sit, including the beautiful garden in the back. read more

"A Perfectly fine iced coffee" - a hard to please coffee snob. Good scone too. The original plan was to go to Toby's for a coffee, but after seeing some local cyclists come here instead this seemed like the wiser option. I'm happy about the last minute change of plans and will stop here again next time I'm in town. read more

Oh my gosh, talk about a darling atmosphere!!!!! The garden area is NOT wheelchair friendly but they do have a wheelchair ramp into the store and a lovely, big table with chairs. The woman who served me is super duper kind (beautiful, gray hair) and helpful getting me everything I ordered. The meringue (cherry & chocolate) are super delish! I had never had one and needed to go back for two more before I left the area. The mocha was.... underwhelming. The espresso was crafted beautifully, but zero chocolate flavoring at all. Alternative milk prices were high, unfortunately. Their quiche is also wonderful. Everyone was very, very kind. I do wish there is a way for handicap folks to enjoy the Secret Garden-Esque garden area, but definitely not accessible to anyone in a wheelchair. read more

Over the past 18 months, the quality of the breads and pastries has remained consistently superior. The variety of batards and ficelles has expanded considerably, as has the choice of muffins, scones, almond cakes and cookies. The batards and ficelles made with Vella Jack or Havarti dill cheese are just wonderful. This is an exceptional bakery. read more

How did I not know about this fantastic bakery? I've passed through Point Reyes Station at least twice a year for 35 years and just discovered this incredible place during the Point Reyes Bird and Nature Festival. While there, we enjoyed their delicious scones, quiche, toast with butter and jam, rye bread, sourdough bread and lattes. Everything was excellent and consumed in the incredible beauty of their garden. A must visit!! read more

Literally had the best sour dough bread and like this cheesy bread they got, the employees were really nice but it was like kinda empty so idk but like ya read more

Eating a couple scones in a garden with hummingbirds and bees? Yes, please! Blink and you'll miss Brickmaiden Breads. Nestled between a cheese shop and a clothing store, here is a cheery bakery offering freshly-made pastries and breads. Brickmaiden's menu changes each week depending on the season, so there's something new each visit! I made my way through the door and past the many bicyclists who had stopped at Brickmaiden for a bite. Inside, the baked goods on the counter in front, the biscotti on the wall to the left, and the pastry chefs in the kitchen behind me--the shop hummed with activity. I ordered a ginger scone and a currant scone and went into the back garden to eat. The ginger scone was surprisingly sweet, and the currant scone was buttery and lightly tart. Just as the bakers were busy between the main shop and the bake house, the hummingbirds and bees zipped among the flowers in the garden. It was an experience to watch! Surprises on the menu? Delicious food? Charming gardens? What's not to love? I'll be returning to Brickmaiden Breads the next time I'm in town. read more

I am still daydreaming about my next opportunity to return here. One of the best parts of going to cafes with my 5 year old is that he always picks baked goods that I would never think to order. Thus I was introduced to the cardamom teacake which is an absolute winner. Waiting around, or going for a walk and coming back for a fresh croissant at 9:00 is also worthwhile! The cinnamon one tasted almost like a morning bun. And as others pointed me to their sourdough baguette, so too will I suggest you grab the smaller loaf, find some cheese (you have plenty of places to find it) and go to town. Well, you're in town, but you know, go to the beach and then go to town on that delicious food. Wonderful place. read more

TLDR: Go here, not there. Highly recommend the ginger scones. Check out their rotating Sunday pop up events on the gram. Don't let the name fool you - they have more than just bread. Extensive menu including delicious pastries and handy to-go items in the pantry fridge. Friendly and helpful staff. Their items are seasonal and often come from the patio garden so always changing. read more

What a lovely little place! My friend and I stopped here and, in true me fashion, my eyes were wayyyyy bigger than my stomach! I ordered a scone, a fruit tartlet and a cookie. I had several bites of each and they were all so delicious! read more

Great bakery. People crowd into small, rustic place in charming Pt. Reyes Station. Their reputation is evidenced by the busy spot. Staff is busy but very nice. Go early before they run out . read more

My boyfriend ordered a scone and according to him, it was good. My issue was with a tall older gentleman who was packing the van. I don't know if he was the owner or not. But we overheard him loudly proclaim to the younger cashier, "don't you just want to punch someone when people talk to you that way." Even if our country wasn't going through particularly divisive, often verbally and/or physically violent times, the comment remains startling and exceptionally unprofessional. We were shocked that he would say this within earshot of several customers and to be honest, that he'd say this at all. As someone who has worked in service, I know customers can be hard to navigate; but to use violent rhetoric...there are so many ways to express frustration that don't compromise safety. I've been coming to Point Reyes since I was a child -- I will continue to get pastries from Bovine around the corner. read more

We like to purchase local artisan breads as we travel. Yesterday we bought a sesame wheat levain loaf. This could very well be the best bread ever. Fresh, chewy, with a clean wheat taste and perfectly toasted sesame seeds on top. Thank you Brickmaidens!! Cafe is very cute with peaceful outdoor area. Breakfast offerings were varied. I recommend trying. read more

Super 6 star review for bread- superlative bread absolutely the best in West Marin- except for the sesame loaf has not been as good as in the past. Sometimes certain bake goods are a bit dry- like brownie and tart. Lovely scones that melt in yr mouth. Great croissants. Gingerbread during Xmas holidays divine. - X Baker from famous Bay Area way place down the road read more

Such a charming place, great service! Stopped in for a latte and I left with that and a few loaves of bread to take home. The Sesame Levain and the baguettes are to die for! Next time I will need to try those delicious looking croissants. read more

Incredible baked goods! The deep dish quiche was delicious. The made to order coffees were fantastic. The staff were very friendly and greeted us with a smile even when they were very busy. The garden is beautiful! We sat back by the water feature. We will be back! read more

Really cute stop, I love their to go station which is really practical. I needed 2 cups of hot water and I was asked to make a purchase which I did. They are marshmallow squares were five dollars, and they were very pricey for the amount that you get. The flavor was good, peppermint marshmallow covered in chocolate, but it was nothing memorable I would want to re-purchase. Nonetheless, I am grateful for the hot water I asked for. read more

There are so many delicious things to try, I'm sure, but this place makes my favorite sourdough of all time. The bread is just perfect with the outside crunchy and the inside soft. I stop by this place whenever I'm near by and it's worth it every time. I cannot recommend this bakery enough. read more
