Dessert
Joy M.

We stopped by for drinks after dinner now that Lawson's Bakery is open Thursday-Saturday 5pm-9pm. Their pastries look so delicious. I now know where I can buy cakes for parties. They have burnt almond cake and carrot cake. Our family favorites. I ordered the Spicy Mango Margarita which was just the right amount of spicy and refreshing. Hubby ordered the Honey Bee, which was just the richer amount of sweet and yummy. Our server was friendly and gave us good recommendations. The ambiance was inviting. Both indoors and outdoor seating. Will be back to try the other pastries and drinks.

Veggie Sandwich
Buenafe S.

I have been a long time customer, I have always had a good experience. I like their cookies and the food items. Most recently I had the veggie sandwich, very good. Coffee here is also good. I've had the cakes here, they are good. I just feel that the cakes are very sweet. I've had their pumpkin pie during Thanksgiving and I do enjoy that. Overall I'm glad we have this bakery in town and I like the new location even though parking is a little difficult. The bakery has a decent amount of seating and outdoor seating also. The inside is clean and modern. Everyone working there has always been helpful and friendly to me. I wish they would bring back the savory muffin, it was my favorite.

Birthday cake

I love Lawsons bakery! We order cakes from them often and they are always beautiful and delicious! Our most recent cake was a little bit of a custom cake and ordered during a very busy time. But, they did it and it was perfect! It was a Mama Mia themed cake for my daughter's 17th birthday. She absolutely loved it! Thank you Lawson's!!!

Avocado toast
Rylee Q.

Wow, this was so disappointing. The chicken sandwich was $16 and was basically all lettuce. I honestly thought it was a joke when it came out. I even found a review from a couple years ago where the sandwich looked completely normal, so I'm not sure what happened, but this should not be served for that price. The avocado on the toast was unripe, and the portion itself felt pretty sad for what it cost. Not pictured is the banana cream latte made with their "house-made syrup," which tasted exactly like a banana laffy taffy. I have a hard time believing it was actually made in house. Overall, the whole experience was a letdown and the quality just didn't come close to matching the prices. Staff was not exactly friendly either

Appetizer menu

Was in Morgan Hill today and stopped in at Lawson's Bakery to try their beignets, which I'd heard were very good. The bakery is on Monterey Highway in front of a townhouse complex and easy to miss. I had no trouble finding a parking spot, but it was a quiet Saturday evening. Other reviews mention parking can be challenging during peak hours. There was only one person behind the counter. She was very nice and had things under control. I was concerned because there were no beignets in the glass case with the pastries, but she explained they make them fresh to order and they take about ten minutes. Each order consists of 10 small beignets. While I was waiting I ordered a pumpkin chocolate chip scone. The woman behind the counter (should have got her name) was kind enough to give me an extra scone for free. It was sweet and delicious. I waited until I got home to try the beignets (okay I had one in the car). They came with a little container of caramel for dipping. Yum, so good. They are very light and rolled in sugar. Lawson's Bakery also has coffee and savory items like breakfast burritos, veggie quiche, grilled artichokes, and more. Their sweets include cakes, cupcakes, cheesecake bars, bread pudding, scones, lemon bars, and much more. It's a cute bakery with indoor and outdoor seating. If I lived in Morgan Hill I would be there often.

Updated signage new location so much better

Lawsons at their old location on Tennant this location a lot better nice new and updated location. Stopped by for a quick bite before my flight home. Great bakery and the staff here are always fantastic.

Breakfast burrito with cocktail
Jenny K.

*** Stellar Gem *** I was actually jealous of the staff. Charlie switched off with the employee on their breaks eating the food. I wish I could eat like that daily. They are so lucky. My most searched food item is breakfast burrito. I am usually disappointed when I do order them but not this time. It was delicious to the point that we needed to go order another (2nd time was veggie burrito). The pancakes were perfectly fluffy with a nice crispy texture. Would have ordered more but didn't want to overeat. The veggie burrito had elevated tasting veggies in it. Definitely tomatoes, Brussels sprouts, egg whites, etc. Housemade salsa was in containers at the front. It is brilliant because you don't have people filling a small plastic container only to make a mess. Grab what you need. I was bummed that we didn't get to pick up some burnt almond cake on the way back. Bread pudding and beignets looked tempting but only one stomach. Too many sweets during the holidays. Definitely recommend for food with elevated flavors.

We have been wanting to check out Lawson's Bakery 's new location ever since they moved there months ago. The new location is in a nice area off Monterey Road in Morgan Hill infront of a new townhomes area. Parking is accessible either in the small parking lot or street parking. There are plenty of outdoor tables and a few picnic tables in the nice patio area. The bakery looks inviting and nice inside. Simple modern decor with a few tables available for dine in. The staff was friendly and accommodating. There are displays of some delectable pastries and baked goods in the front counter area. We ordered fried mac and cheese bites, chicken wings, the wedge salad, the honey bee cocktail and a Chardonnay glass. The food was delicious and flavorful. Our drinks were refreshing. Everything was priced modestly reasonable. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Lawson's Bakery. We will be back soon to try their pastries, other appetizers and other drinks.

Cherry Greek Yogurt Danish
Clarizza A.

They relocated to a corner spot around the new neighborhood. Plenty of seating outside and inside. The workers were very nice as well. I haven't tried the coffee yet but the pastries are so good! I got the butterscotch cheesecake bar before and it's so sweet but sooooo good. This time I got the cherry greek yogurt danish and was pleasantly surprised! I typically don't like anything with cherries but I was a fan of this.

Our little approves!

The chocolate cupcake is AMAZING! Worth every calorie, 100% YES! Little lady approves!

Cute little bakery/eatery in Morgan Hill hidden in a residential area. I got a breakfast burrito with bacon. It was a pretty good sized burrito. The only thing I was disappointed in was the fact it didnt seem to have a lot of bacon despite the fact I asked for all bacon and no sausage. It was pretty much filled with egg which was still good, but made me a little sick after a while. 3/4 through, I deconstructed it and ate the potato and bacon bits.

Fortunately, they had a table for us. Upon our arrival, I was very pleased with the restaurant's ambiance, which featured unique art designs at the entrance. The host, Cristina, welcomed us warmly and guided us to our seats by a large window. We were promptly attended to by both Cristina and Melanie, who provided us with the menu and shared some background about Vera. The dining area was bright, clean, and spacious, and the menu was simple and easy to read. I ordered a glass of Sarah's Vineyard Pinot Noir, while my daughter chose a Winter Four drink. Our meals arrived promptly. I enjoyed the Yuku Salmon Bowl, which was delightful and refreshingly fresh--I cleaned my plate! My daughter had the appetizing Ahi Tuna & Saba Noodle Bowl. We concluded our meal with Profiteroles, which were bite-sized caramelized puff pastries with the perfect amount of sweetness. Complimentary, custom-made flower arrangements were beautifully crafted by Dani, who helped make our dining experience at Vera memorable. I would like to give compliments and a shout-out to Cristina, Melanie, and Dani for their excellent service. Overall, I highly recommend Vera Restaurant as a must-visit eatery. My daughter and I truly enjoyed the peaceful ambiance and, most importantly, the excellent food!

We started with Sangria (both red and white) and tho I like the white a bit more, both are really good. We also had the "a little bit of both" share charcuterie, and that was much more than expected! Not fancy, but 2 cheeses, 2 meats, assorted nuts, olives (have pits be safe!) and grapes with a few slices of a nice crusty bread and these really good large cracker type bread that was just perfect to have with our sangrias. We sat outside while a great local band played, the heaters were perfectly warm, nice string lights, and a good atmosphere. We also ordered a coffee and a beer later on, but I forget what kind of beer. Was good, I just don't recall the beer or ale. Staff was pretty attentive most of the time. The reason for not 5 stars: while I was in the industry for almost 50 years, our server seemed to get bored with us at some point and we had to flag her down. It was busy so I understand but the attitude changed a bit. Also, we wanted an item on the menu from The website and it wasn't available as the website wasn't updated. Minor issue, but the server seemed annoyed. Next time I keep the menus so that doesn't happen again. Still, totally worth the visit and since I live in the area now I would love to become a regular! Next time I want to try the flatbread
