Trays full of fresh bread of different varieties, whole pies, a case full of beautiful desserts and baked goods, plus an excellent lineup of sandwiches, the only problem is what to pick. This has become a go-to spot post-hike in the area and always is the treat I look forward to. On my most recent visit I had the BLT which had avocado, an egg, and chipotle mayo on brioche - hit the spot. Each sandwich comes on a different type of bread, which adds to the flavor profiles for each. Sometimes places just put it all on wheat or sourdough, but I like how the bread is paired to add to the sandwich. There's seating inside and out and always plenty of parking, though I can imagine on the weekend, it's more competitive. Although the spot has been around for a while, I just recently got introduced to it on enthusiastic recommendations from others, so I pass that enthusiastic recommendations onto you. read more

Dudley's bread has been there ever since I was a small child. My favorite bread is Date Raisin so tasty and fresh! excellent service. I would have picked up an apple pie, but they did not carry a vegan version. They have plenty of tables to enjoy a hot drink and some pastries or a small meal. They do have some knickknacks that you can purchase. Inside the building is rustic and cute. Restrooms are clean, but you do need a code to get in. read more

Such a cute and charming local bakery to get delicious pastries, sandwiches, whole loaves of bread, cafe drinks! We tried their spinach feta pastry, raspberry cheese danish, and spiced apple walnut pastry. They were all tasty, flaky, buttery with the perfect level of sweetness. Their chipotle turkey sandwich was also fresh, flavorful, and filling! All the ingredients complemented each other from the pepper jack cheese to the red onion, tomato, chipotle aoili and jalapeño cheddar bread. They sell whole loaves of all sorts of breads, pies, cookies, muffins, cafe moto coffee, local honey, etc. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating as well and plenty of free parking. A must stop in town! Prices are very fair and reasonable and service is prompt and efficient! read more

A must stop when driving up to Julian. They have delicious pies, jams, olive oil, and their famous bread. Great variety of flavors and good price. I always get the jalapeño cheddar and the raisin date. You can always freeze the bread and grab some slices as you go so the bread does not go bad. They also have coffee and breakfast options and a cool house items to buy. :) read more

Very cute coffee shop on our trip to Anza borrego and glad we stopped by. Honestly we actually stopped by just use a restroom but this was a really good find. Lovely aesthetic on the inside and quite a nice selection of items for purchase as well. The variety of breads they have was unbelievable! Put the bread lover in me really wanted to go all out. The pastry selection was also really lovely. Husband and I got the Pistachio Stuffed Flaky Brioche and it was really delicious even a few hours later. The pistachio cream was smooth and not too sweet either and when really well with the croissant. Sister-In-Law got the Nutella flaky brioche and that definitely did have quite a lot of Nutella inside! Definitely value for money. Friends also got one of the savory pastries and they said the flavor was really nice but it wasn't really crispy. read more

We come here at Dudleys mostly for their Pies, their bread and other Pastries were good too. My wife can eat a whole pie here in one sitting by herself; that's how much she likes their pies. We mostly eat here at their place and then buy more pies to go. We always purchase their APPLE PEACH PIE and APPLE MANGO PIE. Both pies were really good, have plenty of fruits inside their pies too, and most of all they are not overly sweet. Staff are friendly, and plenty of parking around. read more

Both my husband and I have been going to Dudley's since the 70's. One of our favorite stops when we go to East San Diego County. Today (Thursday) we stopped in around 9:00 am and were so disappointed. A first for us! They hardly had any bread. My husband found his favorite in the day old bread. We usually buy three or four different loaves but not today. Since one of the new owners had owned a pasty shop, I had hoped for wonderful pasty but nope. Not much of a selection and no cream or custard filled which I had always loved getting as a kid. We're thinking maybe it's because it's a week day and we've usually gone on weekends. I sure hope this wonderful bakery isn't a thing of the past! read more

I haven't tried the baked goods yet. We stopped here on our way to Julian and decided to come back on our way home and bought baked goods, a Dutch apple pie. When you come to Julian (technically not Julian yet) you gotta get a pie. The pie looks good. And the loaf looks yummy. The cashier did a nice gesture and she was friendly. The place looks inviting, didn't feel like sitting down to eat but the place looked like a good place to bring some baked goods home. Forgot to mention that the price of pie ($20.95) is way cheaper than my regular supermarket. read more

We stopped by Dudley's on our way home from Julian to pick up some lunch for the road. After all the old timey shops we had just been to, it was refreshing to find a modern bakery. We bought a few loaves of bread to take home, a tuna sandwich, and jam. The bread is not the best I've ever had, but still good. The tuna sandwich was absolutely delicious, but be forewarned it a little spicy. The women running the cash registers were also so kind. Will be back if I find myself in the area again. read more

Raisin date but bread! I haven't had this in 30 years! Only waited 10 minutes to be helped - I wasn't looking forward to a long line and was happy to see it short midweek! Probably bc it wasn't a weekend. Yummy bread - next time I'll try other loaves - this time I just wanted a taste of nostalgia - be back sooner for more read more

We've been coming to Dudley's for over 30 years. In the old days, I would take orders from friends and family members and come home with 20 loaves of bread to distribute This has always been a very good bakery - for breads, muffins, cookies and pastries. Now, they also have a cute little gift shop. Today, we stopped by and bought a bear claw and a savory spinach pastry. The savory was good, but it almost had too much spinach. We really enjoyed the bear claw with a yummy almond paste and would definitely buy it again. I also purchased a few cute cards. They have clean restrooms, but you'll have to ask for the code to get in. read more

Excellent pastries, great coffee bar, cute trinkets to shop for. Friendly helpful servers. Can't wait to go back.

I've been going to Dudley's Bakery since I was a child! I have so many fond memories of weekend day trips to Julian with my parents, and we ALWAYS stopped into Dudley's for a loaf of bread and the most amazing molasses bars. All of these years later, I'm so happy to see their success and expansions, and the product is just as delicious as ever. The service is always lovely, and it's just so cute inside. Highly recommend! read more

This was the best find for me during our trip to Julian! The bakery has a lot of variety and the food is good! Tried the Bajapotle and it really hit the spot! The toasted jalapeño cheese bread was so good we bought a loaf - and a loaf of Asiago, and a few others. lol. Also tried the brioche with pistachio cream, which was soft and flaky. There was plenty of cream and it was a satisfying sweet treat. There's plenty to look at inside, too - mugs, dishes, soaps, cards, etc. and a fair amount of seating to enjoy your treats. The service was friendly. It did take a while for our sandwich order to be filled, but everything's freshly made, so that could be why - and it was crowded. Lots of people seem to like this place. If you're in Julian, definitely check out Dudley's! read more

oh man... what can I say about this pastry/bakery? If you are on the way to Julian, Dudley's is a must! When you walk in, you'll see the wide array of pastry, breads, and other cool items to check out. Mainly, I was there for their bread. Its as good as it gets! Their jalapeno bread is wickedly good. The garlic one is the next in line of my favs there. How good you ask? You'll need to finish it within 6 days. Otherwise, you'll need to freeze it to prolong the shelf life. Why? Because there are no preservatives in their loafs. Its the real deal. Inside, you'll find a lot of kitchen and random items which is quite cute to browse around. There's plenty of seating area to enjoy your snacks and morning brew. I would say go early and stop in for a pit stop. Its the best! read more

I took my husband to Dudley's Bakery for the first time and he is officially a Dudley's fan. We rarely have a weekend off together so we did a mini road trip to Julian and on the way of course I had to take him to Dudley's. Superbowl Sunday meant less people on the road and a pretty quiet visit, at first he didn't really understand all the hype but now he's a convert. He roamed around the store and in turn I ended up finding clearance section for the Christmas goodies. I ended up picking up a Bread Bauble, which is completely appropriate and a steal at $4. As for food, we ended up getting their sliced cheddar jalapeno bread and scored a box of pastries at 50% off, plus we ordered a Bajapotle sandwich to share and added bacon to it. For everything it was around $40+, if you have never had a sandwich from Dudley's please do yourself a favor and get one. The Bajapotle was so good, the spice from the jalapeno bread really tied it all together and had the best meat to cheese to veggie ratio! A couple of days later I did end up recreating that sandwich, but alas not as good as Dudley's. For $10 our pastry box, included 2 croissants, 2 cinnamon rolls and a savory pastry which I think had tomato jam. The cinnamon rolls are amazing, not too sweet and the glaze is perfect! I ended up eating the savory pastry too and it was just the right little snack. I fear we will be driving 45 minutes to Dudley's just to get bread and I'm not mad at that haha. Please check them out. read more

If you're heading up to the town of Julian for some apple pies and Fall vibes, you might want to stop by Dudley's bakery for a loaf or two of their bread. We usually pack with us some deli meat, cheese and veggies on our road trip up, pick up a variety of bread at Dudley's and have a picnic somewhere. We have been lucky a few times where there is no line of people, but the weekend before Halloween and most likely, Halloween weekend, you'll hit the crowds. Once inside, you'll find a cafe counter for sandwiches, coffee and pastries. If you want to take some bread home, just grab the ones you want from the rack and head to the counter to pay for it. We like the Sheephearder bread, deli onion rye, Hawaiian, Asiago olive, and Irish potato. There is also a variety of sweet dessert loaves; like apple cinnamon, etc. During the Fall season, you'll find pumpkin pastries, bread and pies. What I love about their bread is that all of the ingredients are locally sourced, no preservatives, and is made with local spring water. Buy four loaves and get the fifth one free. Each loaf is approximately $8. read more

This Bakery is amazing! It is worth stopping in on your way to Julian. Highly recommend picking up a loaf of Jalapeño Cheddar Bread. We plan to stop here from now on. Pros: * Amazing Bread; it is so soft and fresh * Outstanding Sandwiches; recommend the bajapotle * Friendly staff * Quick service; we got there just before 12 and it was busy. The staff had 3 registers open for orders, so we didn't wait to long. * Very clean and welcoming inside. Cons: * N/A Extras: * Big parking lot; just be careful cause there is a lot of traffic * The receipt has the bathroom code * Expect to have to wait - Just remember it's worth it! read more

Stopped here on the way to the town of Julian. It's a good stop to take a break, restrooms, stretch your legs, and get some food, snacks, and gifts. The people here are very friendly. The place itself has a lot to look at. Besides the bakery items, they also have a section of nic nacs - soaps, mugs, stuff animals, etc. The highlight of the place is their bakery items. They have a good selection of breads, cookies, pastry rolls, and other items. They also have a deli the sandwiches made with their fresh baked bread. We had the bajapolte sandwich and it was delish. Definitely recommend stopping by this place if your own your way or near Julian. read more

We visited on a Saturday in early January, and the place was packed. Aside from the bread section, they offered a variety of desserts, deli items, honey, accessories, pies, and numerous local products (check out the pictures and videos). We ordered the Italian club and the Bajapotle sandwich, with the latter being my favorite. Sandwich prices range from $11 to $16. We also tried two desserts--a raspberry pastry and a cheese Danish--along with a Crazy Chai Latte and a Raspberry Mocha Latte. The latter felt like hot chocolate. Coffee signatures ranged from $6 to $7, depending on the size. This was my second visit, the first was a few years ago when it was much quieter. The location has both indoor and outdoor seating and plenty of parking. 5 stars for the ambiance. It's always a great spot for breakfast or lunch before exploring the area! read more

When in the area this is required stop! We purchased some bread of course. They have many to choose from. We selected the Jalepeno cheddar and the garlic. The sourdough is also one of the best. We then shared a sandwich. They are very large and easily provide two meals from one sandwich. This place is always packed so bring your patience! It's well worth it. read more
