The girl making the raspados is…read moreamazing and very friendly BUT PLEASEEEE TEACH YOUR CASHIER COSTOMER SERVICE. first of all the grown lady named magaly over charged me (the fault was hers) she mistaken a regular raspado for a mangonada as you can see from the recipe it's clearly a dollar and some change more than a regular one. When i called her out for it she said "it's the same price" clearly it's not. I told her it wasn't the same price and she started having an attitude w me mind you she already had an unwelcoming face from the start. when she "refunded" me she gave me a dollar in change instead of giving me an actual dollar very petty and childish if the fault was hers. not to mention she threw the recipe back on the counter instead of handing it to me. once we turned she rolled her eyes. definitely not okay! please teach ur employees customer service.

"Boy what you looking for? You know where them cookies are…read moreYeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar" (Doja Cat) It's a tough call to decide what was better. The incredibly sweet woman behind the counter who helped us with a dessert order for a family dinner for twelve, the sheer beauty and variety of the baked goods in her store, or the 20 amazing cookies we ended up buying. The Carlsbad Bakery has been around for 40+ years specializing in Danish and French pastries, quiche, cupcakes, cakes, and too many eye-popping things to list. We walked over on a Friday and after talking to the proprietor decided that a variety of cookies would be the way to go. What wasn't easy was deciding what type of cookie, because their big chocolate chip, pistachio, almond, cherry, and peanut butter cookies all looked beyond amazing. We decided on a box of 20 mixed cookies ($52.90) and returned the next day to pick them up. My Sweet Lord, the box was as heavy as a bowling ball and was warm with freshly baked cookies. The intoxicating aroma penetrated the carton and filled our hotel room. When they were served at dinner, people's eyes popped out of their heads because they were so gorgeous. I managed to restrain myself and limited my dessert to one pistachio cookie that was fantastic. Of course, all of my cousins wanted to know where we found these amazing cookies. Thank you, Carlsbad Bakery, for such a fantastic customer experience. Your store is beautiful, and your product is extraordinary.

What's even better is that it's a small business-we need to keep them going! Quality, home-baked goods are easy to order through the baker (Jen) directly or through the site!

I also feel as if they are putting out day olds for the glazed, old-fashioned and the buttermilk bars. I normally buy a couple of donuts to eat over the next couple of days, so I am well aware of what a day old donut tastes like. The past couple of times I've gone in, the donuts that I bought early in the morning already tasting like day old donuts. Hard and slightly gummy. I will probably give them one more shot, but after that, it's off my list

Still, not what it used to be…read more We decided to attempt this once again after avoidance since our miserable last try. New owners? New Chef? This time a Sunday morning around 9:30am, just before the church crowd. Place seemed unusually empty; maybe three customers, some others just getting some pastries in a bag to go. The parking lot was empty as well. Perhaps it gets much busier in another hour. We ordered an omelet with house potatoes, since they 'didn't have' hash browns that were on the menu. We also shared a two-stack of pancakes. Food tasted terrific. My wife keeps talking about those pancakes. The portions were acceptable, as the wife and I shared one plate, a stack of pancakes and a less than truly good chocolate-almond croissant. I do consider the cleanliness and order of the establishment a factor of my experience. Basic stuff, like cleaning the hot sauce bottle caps. Sheesh! Also, why is there a leaf blower in the dining room? The leaf blower stayed right there the entire time we were visiting. I wish I could say this was a great experience, but that experience is still elusive after all these years. CritDicks

I also have to mention their croissants, which are excellent. I love all of their locations. The Carlsbad spot has a slightly more extensive menu -- especially with the pizzas -- but the Encinitas location is just as good and always worth the stop. My personal favorites are the ham and gruyère baguette and the Pizza Florentine, and their cookies are dangerously good. And if you're a coffee person, you'll be happy here -- their espressos, lattes, and cappuccinos are consistently great. It's simply a gem of a local spot for really good bread, coffee, and casual bites.
