My personal happy place to come and enjoy one of my many favorites, toasted brick oven rolls with butter and a tall hazel nut latte.

Pro Tip - Skip the jars and focus intensely on the bakery creations. They won't last as long as the plaster and clay, but taste oh so much better, and definitely make your day. My sampling of their Brownies, Peanut Butter Cookies, Lemon Iced Petit Four, Pistachio Cookies, and a few more I have forgotten due to sugar rush, was an overwhelming high. All delicious with great taste and texture. Service was exceptional from moment of entry to final goodbyes. The packaging was likewise memorable, as was the flour sugar atmosphere that totally captivated the little kid who still lives within. Five by Five. Fantastic pastry experience.

I have bought all of our cakes from here. It's a little pricey I think, but I haven't used money bakeries but I do feel that it is worth every penny. You show them a picture of what you have in mind and they do very well with capturing it. The cake is moist and flavorful. They definitely have your cake ready on time when you need it. Great service. The place is kind of small but it's a family business and they still get the job done so that's counts

We were staying at an airport hotel nearby and happened across Alkazar Bakery. I don't want to be…read moredramatic, but I will be thinking about these pastries for the rest of my life. Living on the west coast, I had never had anything like it. We tried 2 empanadas, beef and ham and cheese and also a bizcocho rolled in sugar which was fresh out of the oven. The empanadas were seasoned perfectly and the crust was flaky and tender. The bizcocho pulled apart into flaky, warm layers. The exterior had a beautiful crunch to it and it was really perfection. I paired it with a cappuccino which was delicious with a sprinkle of cinnamon. The staff was so sweet and gracious, taking the time to explain the pastries to me in the midst of their busy morning.

The order is brought out to you but that is the only table service you receive. You collect your own napkins and utensils from the station located near the restroom, and you toss out your trash. PROS: - no stairs, easy entrance for those who use walkers, wheel chairs, strollers, etc. - expansive menu including hot food options, milkshakes, etc. (more than just a coffee shop menu) - cool vibe, antique decor, string lighting and variety of heights for seating options (high top tables, standard tables, couches, etc) - amazing bakery selection including novelty cakes; authentic and professional CONS: - sometimes lacks available seating, especially on weekends - sometimes lacks available parking, especially on weekends - could use better ongoing table clean up My go to drink is the iced toffee coffee. My go to breakfast is the yogurt & honey which is a generous portion. I also enjoy the potato peppers & eggs. For lunch they have an expansive salad menu. I really enjoy the Mediterranean salad (which used to be called the Israeli salad). This is a family friendly establishment. Always fun to take a stroll through the antique store which you can access from the dining establishment.

One of the servers let me know they didn't have any apple turnovers, so they gave me an apple puff pastry. Imagine my surprise when I got to my seat to find that it was completely hollow, not a single apple in sight! So I went back to the counter to let them know. The servers were very kind and took pictures to let their boss know, and gave me an apple fritter instead. I guess third times the charm, because that was very tasty. We stayed at our table for a while, and it got very busy. Some of my friends waited a long time for their food to be ready, but everything did taste good. I'll probably go back and hopefully have a better experience with ordering my food, because I really did enjoy the energy and everything I tried.

It was just not moist and dense or anything. It was very light and dry. The woman there was friendly and patient as we decided what to get. There is parking in the back lot.
