Reunion Bakery is a small-batch bakery and one of the BEST bakeries I've been to! The pastries looked so delicious I didn't even get a chance to take a photo before my friends and I dug in. We tried the Pastel de Nata, Sunflower Sourdough, and Santiago's Flourless Tart. - Pastel de Nata: A Portuguese egg custard tart with a flaky crust and creamy filling. They're mini, making them the perfect personal-size dessert--or leaving room to try more. I could eat a thousand of these, they were the clear winner for us. - Sunflower Sourdough: Good, but not amazing. Though I might be biased because I make sourdough at home. It has a great sour flavor, but after three days the crust got so hard it hurt your mouth to eat. If you plan to use the bread within a couple of days, I'd recommend trying it. - Santiago's Flourless Tart: The perfect amount of sweetness with hints of lemon, vanilla, and almond. It was incredibly moist and delicious--I'd come back just for this. Reunion Bakery is located in the Source Food Hall in RiNo but will be moving to South Pearl Street at the end of the month. Reunion Bakery is a MUST-visit. read more

Delicious pastries and breads. The baker did win the 2025 Hopsy Award for Baker of the Year. Well earned and deserved! I continually eye Reunion Bread when I'm at The Source in RiNo. Perfect, flaky croissants along with their breads-tried the banana bread and it was to die for. Their crème puffs are out of this world, however they only had Nutella filling, which I am not a fan of, so I had it unfilled and it was a delight! Service is always friendly. Get there earlier in the day as everything sells out quickly! Sadly, I do believe they are moving out of their current spot, which is a little crammed, so I will just have to visit at their new locale- tbd! read more

Probably my favorite butter croissant in Denver. It is just so flaky and airy. Pastel de nata was fine but not standout. Also tried their pecan chocolate chip cookie which was more of the gooey thick types of cookies. They seem to always have a line but it moves at a reasonable pace. Parking in their lot is limited but sounds like they're moving to South Pearl Street in March 2026. read more

Reunion Bread - croissant and pastel de nata - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Stopped in at Reunion Bread at the Source before it closes on March 8th and moves to its new location on South Pearl Street. Had a special cream puff pastry (minus the cream since I am allergic to hazelnut), but it was still delicious. Reunion's pastry was airy and had a choux au craquelin of bright red with just the right amount of sweetness. Because I couldn't have them filled, they gave me an extra pastry, which was very nice since my allergies aren't their problem. I can't wait to try their new venue since I am in that area more often. read more

This bakery is the real deal. The croissants are light and fluffy with so much flavor. The Venezuelan sticky bun was unique and delicious - a soft and sweet "sticky bun" . The nata, which was probably my favorite, was a flaky, crispy pastry puff filled with a really delicious custard in the middle - not too sweet. The service is quick and the people are very kind. The prices are fair. 10/10 visit. read more

Atmosphere: Reunion Bakery has a lively and welcoming atmosphere. There was a line when I visited, which shows how popular it is, but everything moved quickly and efficiently. It was a fun last-minute find, and the energy of the place made the experience even better. Food: I tried one of their croissant-style breads, and it was delicious crispy on the outside, soft and buttery on the inside. It was definitely a messy choice, but completely worth it. Everything tasted fresh, and they also had ham and cheese sandwiches that looked great. I didn't get to try the coffee this time but I'm looking forward to coming back to try it. Service: The customer service was excellent. Everyone working there was friendly, helpful, and quick, even with a line. The staff made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Price: The prices were very affordable. I don't remember the exact pricing, but I believe it was around $15-$20 for three baked goods. Which felt reasonable for the quality and freshness. Overall Experience: Overall, Reunion Bakery delivered a great experience from start to finish. Delicious, freshly made food, friendly and efficient service, a fun atmosphere, and fair pricing. It's definitely a place I'll be returning to. read more

This bakery is always crowded or sold out. Go early, and you might have options to choose from. The staff is busy, the check out is limited to one person and if the person ahead of you placed a big order, you will have to wait a good 5 minutes. It's worth the wait. I got a nata and a greyere and ham croissant. The nata hits the spot with the subtle and sweet custard. The pocket is crispy. Now, the croissant - i am amazed that the layers did not flake off and make a total mess of my car. It is the first croissant i have encountered that holds its form. The whole experience is even better when you get to park out front instead of the garage. read more

Delicious pastries. I've only been once for their croissant cookie and tried to go back for other specific pastries but I never arrived at the time they were serving them or they were out by the time I got there. Currently they're located inside the Source so there's seating in the main lobby but they're moving to a new bigger space on South Pearl St and excited to see them expand. read more

Everything at Reunion is amazing. Everyone should try the pastel de nata, they are perfection and the churro croissants, there are no words. Just go! read more

I really love the bread here. Both the seeded whole grain sourdough and the olive sourdough has been amazing. I will say, dealing with parking at the Source is an absolute pain. And as other reviews have mentioned, they do sell out of things fairly quickly, and there aren't really other reasons to go to the Source earlier in the day. I would probably buy more often if they were located somewhere with easier parking. read more

Absolutely amazing little bakery tucked inside the Source hotel! Really love all the pastries here; they're all good, but the Natas are to die for. People who work there are super sweet and clearly experienced. I come here any time I'm in the area. read more

The egg tart is a touch too sweet for my liking, that being said the pistachio almond chocolate puff is delectable and sells out quickly. I apparently got the last one. No seating this is a grab and go type bakery. Want to try the seeded breads next time. Expect to wait in a line if you're coming in on a weekend. Don't be late they sell out quickly. read more

Had a fantastic pastel de nata and ham and cheese croissant here. They were fresh out of the oven when we got there at around 11 am. I really appreciate that they continued baking throughout the day to keep things fresh and in stock. They mentioned they're relocating to South Pearl St, I can't wait to visit their new location! read more

Their ham and gruyere croissant was one of the best! The almond croissant was unique as it was baked three times when other places are usually twice baked. Their coffee was okay, since they use oat milk from Chobani. There's plenty of seeing outside with other restaurants within the same space. There's definitely a line, expect a 20 minute wait or more. read more

I went for a walk on Thanksgiving morning and as expected there are no businesses open. And I'm glad things were not open because people should be resting on the holiday. However, I did see on Google maps during my morning walk that this place was open. I would not have found it without Google maps because it is hidden inside a building/food hall. I was very impressed with this place immediately. The staff was working hard and the cashier was super friendly. She asked us if it was our first time at this Bakery and I said yes, and she immediately gave us a signature pastry dessert to sample. Then she spoke about the other breakfast like items. We enjoyed a ham and cheese croissant plus the specialty egg croissant. I have never had anything like the specialty egg croissant because it was Soft gooey scrambled eggs with gooey soft cheese with a sprinkle of pistachios. We also enjoyed lattes and it was a perfect meal and way to spend the beginning of the holiday. We enjoyed them inside with the seating. There was music playing. It as very lively with people lined up to order and order pick ups. I can't wait to go back here! read more

Delicious pastries and cookies you won't want to miss inside a cool spot in the RiNo district. Everything we had was delicious, especially the Venezuelan sticky bun (Golfeado) with a cotija cheese dusting. The staff are really passionate about everything they make and you can watch them work while you're waiting to order. If you have a nut allergy make sure you ask before ordering - the staff are happy to tell you about each item, or the cake they are making in the back. Simple espresso bar available too. Expect a line on the weekend but it's well worth the wait! read more

Reunion Bread - Pastry bar - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Holy mother of dough, this place is worth the wait. Came on a Saturday morning not really expecting the line, but this did give me time to consider my options and send the SO to get coffee from across the bridge in the other part of The Marketplace (although they do sell espresso drinks here as well). I suppose that's what happens when you're nominated for a James Beard. The universal fear of places like this is that you'll anticipate getting your hands all week on a warm, fresh, loaf or specialty croissant but they'll run out before your turn, so people tend to arrive early. Parking is free for 30 minutes in the covered garage. Fortunately, there are also dining tables and chairs around for those who don't like to be bipedal for too long. Even more fortunately, sometimes Ismael and his team will bake something yummy and bring it out to those waiting in line just because they like baking good bread. The only "menu" of sorts is a customizable letter board on the wall next to the register, which provides no descriptions of any pastries. So IYKYK, if you don't know, it's time to ask your neighbors in line or hold up the line while you probe one of the (extremely kind and friendly) employees taking orders. When you actually get within spitting range of the register, the display case is more helpful, and provides more accurate info on daily specials. Alternatively, stalk their Instagram account. The day we went, there were blueberry danishes, passionfruit tarts, glazed blueberry croissants, and other items that ran out before we even got there. The natas, little Portugese egg tarts, are a must try. Deceptively small but packed with gooey goodness and a flaky crust. The passionfruit tart was my next favorite thing, with the combo of silky pastry cream, tart flavor, and buttery crust. Danish? Perfection. Croissant? Stuff of dreams. The crookie was the only thing I might have passed on, a little too rich for me and hardened when I ate my leftovers later in the day. So excited that Ismael is such a young, hungry, carb connoisseur who constantly innovates with his offerings so I have more reasons to come back. read more

Most amazing experience here- and I still have 4 days left in Denver- hands down will be going back each morning until I leave. Was greeted by the staff before even opening asked if I'd like a coffee as I waited- service was superb! Friendly is an understatement- warm hospitable people. Located in "the source" an industrial building with a calm vibe- makes you want to sip lattes and eat the most beautiful handmade pastries all day! The pastries- incredible! Melt in your mouth- warm buttery deliciousness. The BEST- Nata and seeetbreads I've ever had. Words cannot describe how exquisite they are. Go!Be there early as the line carries outside- which no doubt why! read more

This chocolate croissant might be the best I've ever had. It was fresh, straight out of the oven with the perfect flaky to melt in your mouth ratio. I was blown away with the flavors but even more impressed with the incredible customer service. If I recall correctly the first time I was here, they served warm chocolate chip cookies in the long line to hold us over while waiting. Today we came much waiter and avoided the line but when my friend expressed interest in a custard filled baked good, the woman checking me out was so excited to describe her favorite treat, that she gave us one to split while we waited on our order. They always seem to be going above and beyond here and it's a place I still love to recommend. Great parking - nice spacious lot out front of the source. I would recommend coming early to snag a space and avoid the lines. read more

This bakery, although small, can boast about their big flavors and impressive quality they create so with that being said, its existence is larger than life. As I was running some errands in the very neighborhood where the bakery is located and was getting a bit hungry (it was a little past 10am), getting me a few things from this quaint place simply was a great idea. Upon arrival, I was immediately assisted by one of the workers. She was pleasant and prompt. She also mentioned about a few items that weren't necessarily displayed upfront but were coming out of the oven in a minute. I thought they were sold out; was good to know that they were making more!! I wanted something unique. I picked Churro Dulce De Leche ($6.00; churro croissant with dipping dulce de leche inside.) And to my right was a tray full of Pastel De Nata freshly baked so I asked for one of them as well. They are $3.50 each. The lady said to wait at least 15 minutes before consuming as they were still hot as hell. Well, I ended up not listening to the lady. Once in my car, I started to munch on the Pastel De Nata as my mouth was begging for it! And oh boy! It was hot as hell like she said! But at the same time, I was glad that I ate it hot because the outer part of the tart was so crispy. As I was biting into it it made that sound. I have had the real Pastel De Nata in Portugal 5 years ago but this was as delicious as the one I ate in the very country where they were originated. Impressive does not describe its goodness. And the churro croissant was equally amazing. The dulce de leche cream inside was magical. The two items I got from this bakery made my morning very sweet. They filled my tummy and I didn't get hungry for hours. read more

This place had some of my favorite things I have eaten this year. The croissants here are truly the most light, flakey, and delicious things I have ever had.

Ham and cheese croissant Might be the best I've had. It's so flaky and warm... like sooooo good! I went the two days it was open while I was in Denver. I should've gotten more to share with my family... The other pastries were good too. I think the Portuguese egg tart was really good! I brought one for my family and they enjoyed it. It wasn't too different than my fav place in NYC. It was good and I would've ordered more but that was in high demand and I wasn't sure how good it would be until I tried it. I've def made the mistake of ordering a lot and then trying it to find out it's not as good. This wasn't the case this time :( I wish I ordered more. If I'm back in Denver I'm def going here everyday... sooooo good and so fresh! read more

stopped in after puppy yoga at the source. have heard great things and this did not disappoint! I think I could survive solely off of baked goods no problem. My friends and I ordered a handful of things, all spot on. My favorite was a guava & cheese pastry. It was basically like cheesecake in breakfast format. Insane. The sticky bun had cheese on top, sweet and salty goodness. Everything was baked to perfection. I've been told that they have the best sourdough in Denver. I'll have to give it a shot and report back. Staff was approachable, patient, and helped us navigate through the options. Looking forward to more guava and cheese!!!!! read more

In a fast growing bakery scene within the Denver metro, this one stands out above the rest. The pure technique alone makes Reunion a number one vote in our opinion. Not only is the layering perfect but the crispiness of each layer is absolutely to die for. I would put their croissants against any of the ones found in Paris or beyond. Get the Pastel de nata and a couple of their different croissants. The bread is also phenomenal! If you haven't been, you're truly missing out! read more

One of the best pastries I've ever had! On a Sunday morning, my wife and I waited in line for golfeados and a slice of Santiago cake. The line is long and moves slowly, but eventually we were enjoying our pastries. The golfeado is like a honey bun with perfect texture. The lemon Santiago cake was divine with great texture too. I don't even like lemon, but this cake was amazing. One thing to note is that it took awhile to get your food. We watched one of the workers collect our items and then got distracted and walked away doing other things. We asked her about it and she said that the box is ready, but didn't give it to us until we asked another employee. read more

How has it taken me this long to try Reunion Bread? The Gruyere and Ham Croissant is to die for. I almost cried out of happiness. Also got the Nata and Golfeado.

Everyone is so kind here, and I'm so appreciative of the hard work they put into one of the best bakeries I've visited in Denver! So happy I frequent RiNo often. read more

They have the best bakery items I have ever tasted! HOWEVER... Be careful about parking in the lot in front of the bakery entrance. I looked at the sign and it listed the businesses inside the building, I saw no way to pay, and saw no other signage about parking. I have a handicap parking permit so I parked in that space. One week later I received a parking ticket for $55.00!! This is really parking for the hotel and you need a permit. No where did it say permit only parking. This is the most expensive croissant I have ever eaten! Sorry Reunion Bakery, I can't come back. read more

It's been a few months since we came here but it is... SO good. We tried multiple pastries and they were all excellent. It was soon after we moved to CO and I was honestly worried about finding a good pastry/bakery place since I know it's harder to bake at elevation but honestly so far, the bakeries we've been to have been better than any other place. And this one is impeccable. We came around 10am and had to wait maybe 30-45 min in line; then it was another 15 min or so to get our goods. I don't recall what we had, but I do recall one - that custard thing. SO GOOD! The ambiance is also great, there were a lot of other people, it felt lively. read more

Today, the James Beard Awards Semi-Finalist was announced. Nominees will be named on Wednesday, March 29, and Ismael De Sousa is included under their Outstanding Pastry Chef or Baker category! Congratulations!! Good bread should only have three ingredients: Salt, Flour, and Water. A line on a Saturday as soon as the bakery opens at 8 am? Rock star status! Being discovered by no less than the editor of Bon Appétit then without knowing it in 2019. The editor visited the bakery three times! Later wrote about @reunionbread, and on Sept. 11, 2019, Reunion Bread was honored by Bon Appetit magazine as one of the top 50 new restaurants in the country! Guess which pastry put Ismael to Rock Star status? It's the sticky bun called Golfeado! The owner himself, Ismael, is soo nice! He has endless patience and dedication to his craft. He picked four goodies, boxed them, and said try them & lemme me know what you think. So this I can tell you. Do you want something savory? Get the Gruyere and Ham Croissant. It's a croissant wrapped in gruyere and ham. The Golfeado is a must. It's a sticky bun, anise seed, cotija, and piloncillo. The littlest guy of all four, The Pastis De Nata -its Custard, a sprinkle of cinnamon, puff pastry. It is also my second new bite-sized favorite now! But I'm still all about this new addition and my all-time fave for now -Orange Blossom Brioche that light crunch when you sink your teeth and the flavor after that. I'm hooked! More yummy pastry pls! read more

Sheer delight! We came here yesterday, late morning, and were lucky to avoid the line that formed right after we ordered. It's a tight space, but is warm and inviting and there is plenty of seating in the main area of the hall. This was going to be our early lunch so we ordered big: churro croissant, ham and gruyere croissant, the pastry of the day (an orange/creme anglaise/chocolate situation), their version of a chocolate chip cookie, AND the very nice man at the register gave us a pasteis de nata on the house. EVERYTHING was so good! Incredible, even. The savory ham and gruyere is one of the best that we've ever had and we loved the cinnamon churro one that had dulce de leche (we think that's what it was) in it. The chocolate chip "cookie" is also croissant-like, and the pastry of the day was out of this world: it essentially tasted like a canoli. We're not fans of custard tarts in general, so that wasn't our favorite, but we know a good one when we see it, and this was a good one. All of the crusts were so shatteringly flaky that our table was covered with crumbs by the time that we were finished. Friendly service, superlative pastries, and a cool setting. Five stars! We'll be back, we hope. read more
