Pretty good regular croissants, decent donuts, convenient location, and great customer service, that's what Solano Baking Co. provides. I got to try a ham a cheese croissant, regular croissant, and almond croissant. I also bought a chocolate round donut. As croissants go they're a decent size, and after a quick stint in the microwave they're soft. The inside is spacious and overall everything was good. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating. read more

Solano Baking - Donuts Near Me - Dixon, California

this bakery was recommended to me by a co-worker, so I had to stop in and give it a try. it's a cute place with a nice selection. while I'm told the sandwiches are quite good, I'll have to try them on another visit. this go around, I sampled their version of a "cronut" (they really should be careful about calling it that... cronut is a trademarked name). it's nothing like an actual cronut, but still tasty. it's just fried dough rolled in cinnamon sugar... hard to be mad at that! I'd eat it again, but $4.05 for it seems a bit much. I also tried a maple old fashioned donut ($2), which was also good. a bit heavy on the maple icing for my taste, but good. I grabbed a ham & cheese croissant ($6) too. it was my least favorite and i ended up throwing it out. the cheese overwhelms everything else and isn't a great flavor. service is friendly and pretty efficient. there was a steady short line of people. they have tables if you want to sit and enjoy your food there. parking is plentiful. prices weren't too bad, but felt a little high for what it is. I would absolutely go back again. next visit i want to try these sandwiches everyone raves about! read more

My family and I have been coming here for quite a few years, found it by chance on our way back from Tahoe once, wanting to eat something healthier than fast food. From previous experiences, we've always been quite happy, from today's experience, we were quite disappointed. Pros: they have the capability to order online, so food is ready just as you're going through Dixon. It's also next to a Safeway gas station which is less expensive than other gas stations, so a great place to make a pit/gas stop. Cons: today's sandwich was really dry. I normally order their chicken salad, either as a green salad or a sandwich, depending on how much I want to eat. It's never been this dry before. The coffee today was also pretty gross. It tasted burnt, and while I'm not a big coffee drinker, as soon as I took a sip, I imagined that they reused the coffee grinds from a previous pot of coffee. If we had eaten or tried the sandwich and coffee while we were there, we would have asked for new ones. We were already in the car... They also used to give you a miniature cookie with your sandwich or food order, but there was no cookie today. That made me sad... especially since I almost bought a cookie, but talked myself into "being good," and just having the miniature one! Grrrr! Honestly, had today been our first visit, it would have been our first and last. Hopefully they're able to change things around to what we (my husband, son, and I) remembered from prior visits. Prior visits- I would have rated between a 4 and 5, today's visit, between a 1 and 2, thus the overall rating of a "3." No pictures, if we come back, I'll take some and post. read more

Went here to pick up some treats on the way to Sacramento. It is my friend's favorite bakery, so I had to give it a try! I ordered a gluten free coconut cookie, donut, poppyseed muffin, and croissant. The service was quick, even with a line, and the interior was cute. Looks like they had nice drinks and food too! Prices were good, and everything I got was fantastic! I'll be back! read more

Located right off interstate 80 at the Pitt School Road exit, this bakery is very popular with not only the locals but also with folks passing through. The Solano Bakery offers not only good beverages and baked goods, they serve breakfast items and sandwiches too. The service is quick for people who are always on the go, while offering a dining area for others who follow a slower daily routine. The atmosphere is very relaxed. read more

Tried a few things from here: Apple fritter - SO, SO GOOD! You can taste the cinnamon-spiced apple flavor, there are some apple chunks, and it's crispy and perfectly glazed. Most importantly, it's massive. I think this fritter was as big as my head (and I have a large head). Solano panini- Turkey, jack cheese, avocado, and aioli: a simple combo that always hits the spot. It's on their fluffy and flavorful focaccia bread, and comes with two small cookies for dessert. There's some seating inside and outside, and the service is fast, so this is a good spot for a quick lunch. read more

Had a work event today and needed to coordinate breakfast for a team. Someone recommended Solano Baking so we gave it a try. Ordering experience: For catering you need to email if for future, but they have a phone option if time sensitive. I ended up doing phone as I ordering on Thursday for Saturday morning. The order was easy, staff was friendly and helpful. They've got most of the catering items in their regular online order menu, but needed to go through catering for dozen bagels and dozen pastries. Ended call with payment over phone. Arrived at 6:15am today for 6:15am pickup and all was ready and they helped me load my truck. 3 box coffees, 3 dozen donuts, 3 dozen bagels, 1 dozen pastries, and half a dozen quiche. Good variety and came with coffee add ins and cups, napkins, and knives for cream cheese. Smooth pickup. Team loved all the items, which made Saturday a bit more enjoyable than a weekday in the office. Inside the bakery they got ambiance of a coffee shop and large counter bakery. They had an impressive list of items and I'm definitely going to come back to try items we didn't get today. Recommend for both catering and to just get a treat for yourself or others. read more

MUST TRY! --My partner and I ended up here on our way to Sacramento. We exited to get some Dutch bros, as we drove by this place I quickly pulled it up on yelp and decided to give it a try. Place was busy on a Saturday morning. Seating both indoor and outdoor. You walk in and order at the counter. Savory and sweet pastries are on display and a menu along the wall behind it which includes the prices for the baked goods and also offered different bagels and sandwiches to be made. My fiancé opted for the croissant breakfast sandwich with sausage and I got some sort of quiche. I don't quite remember what flavor quiche I got but that being said, it wasn't quite memorable. My partner and I usually share orders and when I bit into his breakfast sandwich, HOLY COW --I instantly regretted not getting one myself. I thought it was be a standard basic sandwich; which is likely was but the aioli they use is out of this word. I don't know what they put in it but it's delicious and oozes out the sandwich after each bite. I can't wait to come back here for more. read more

I absolutely love Solano Baking Co. There aren't many great Bakeries around anymore. For the most part I don't think anyone is making anything for real anymore. Maybe that's the case with Solano, but maybe not. The mint cannolis are a totally weird things but super good. The Ham& Cheese croissant is filled with some thick thicc ham, and some good Swiss cheese. It's got that good grease. The cookies seem to be on a rotation but the Oreo stuff is always a consistent "yes". I've tried different stuff each time I've been here. Highly recommend. I can't think of anything sarcastic to say about this place. read more

I drive from Bay Area to Sacramento several times a month. I probably spend more money here than any restaurant. My coworkers enjoy the breakfast I bring. Ironic part is I didn't know where Dixon was a year ago, and now I feel like Dixon is always a must stop. Donuts are top notch, service is friendly, their other pastries and baked goods are all excellent. Coffee is great too. read more

Driving from Sacramento to San Francisco and we decided to stop and grab some breakfast. My husband noticed a sign for a baking place and so I looked them up and Yelp and we decided to check them out for a quick bite. There was a long line when we walked in, but it moved quickly and was very well organized. We ordered a couple of donuts, a Breakfast Bagel, a Breakfast Bowl and an iced Caramel Macchiato. They offer Egg Bites, Spring Cookies, different pastries, bagels, donuts -- you name it! They had 2 or 3 huge glass cases displaying a bunch of yummy options! The donuts were very good, but both of our hearty breakfast items were just okay. I did enjoy my coffee though! The inside had a few tables and I believe there may have been a couple outside as well, but everyone was super friendly and you can tell this is definitely the breakfast spot for locals! I'm sure we'll check them out again next time we are in the area! read more

We stopped here on a road trip and found it bustling early morning! I like how you get individual and friendly service from the baked goods counter all the way to ordering made to order food to the cash register. The line moved efficiently. I loved my lemon blackberry muffin with a bit of crunchy top and a moist cake inside. My kid had a tough choice of donuts. We shared a deluxe croissant sandwich which was very large! I handled my half with aplomb but my kid found it a messier but delicious affair with the insides squeezing out the sides of the croissant. Pleasant seating but most seem to get it to go. We enjoyed the stop. read more

Solano Baking Company is a great place to stop in for a treat. They have a crazy variety of baked goods and treats, it's hard to choose! Everything we got was good, a couple of our donuts were a little dry but not enough to deter us from a future visit. We will definitely stop in during our next time in the area. The service was good, even though there was a consistent line, they got everyone through quickly. read more

This is a great place to get donuts, bagels, pastries , just about everything. My favorite is the basic glaze doughnut but of course I like to put a twist on it and get the twist. Ha ha. A lot of the times before noon. The lines are very long, but that is expected when you have good donuts and good service. As you wait in line, you go next order what you want and then pay at the register and wait for your drinks to be made. I go there for the seasonal donuts and just regular donuts just about every weekend to get that sugar fix. I love how you can bring your animals chill outside with them and enjoy your beverages and delicious snacks. They also sell other things like jellies and jams in Bread as well so please check them out. It is a place to go to for pastries I think I am Dixon and Davis read more

Service was excellent. I'm a bit claustrophobic so the inside was a little bit crowded, but we were able to find a table. OK. We ordered breakfast sandwiches and the kids got treats. My sandwich was amazing. Had an aïoli on it with the eggs were cooked perfectly. Everything was great. When I was most kind of concerned about was the treats that we received. As a fellow baker, I I'm not sure if we had the cookies that were from the previous day, but it felt as if they were a bit stale. In past experiences, the treats have been amazing so maybe it was just a bad batch. if you're looking for a quick treat for your kids from a great local establishment this is the place to go. read more

I stopped by here recently for the first time and walked out with a box full of delicious treats! Everything was delicious! My only complaints were that they used a poor quality chocolate on their Millionaires shortbread and the royal icing on the Easter cookie was not adding any good flavor to the cookie. Royal icing has become popular for decorating cookies, but is the worst tasting option. I had the cherry muffin, which was delicious and a knotted chocolate pastry that I can't remember the name of. They also have a "pig in blanket" style pastry, but it has a beef sausage and it is a meal in itself. It reminded me of the sausage pastries they make in England for cream tea. It was very good! I highly recommend stopping by here, it has easy access from the freeway so it's a great place to stop between Sacramento and the Bay Area. read more

We stop here every time we're passing through to Tahoe. Have tried many items from their menu, so far everything has put a big smile on our faces. Hence the reason we ALWAYS stop by. Dirty Chai heals the soul. Very nice people working. Not sure if it's hidden, but it's a gem read more

Great selection of very nice looking pastries, donuts and savory breakfast items. Wonderful helpful staff. The negatives are the place is shabby and dirty. The carpets DISGUSTING!

Yum! My friend found this place on our drive up to Velocity Park, and we had to stop by. Upon entering, it looks like a cute, cabin-y bakery with cases and cases full of baked goods. Definitely a treat for the eyes. The servers were very attentive and friendly and greeted us immediately. I ordered one maple bar donut and resisted the urge to get more donuts as they all looked really good and pretty fresh. I also got a breakfast bagel with egg, bacon, and jack cheese on an everything bagel. My order total came out to about $9 which was such a good deal coming from the Bay area. The maple bar was pretty good and not too sweet. I devoured it before I even got my bagel, and I had no regrets. The bagel sandwich was also very good with a large piece of egg, some bacon and melty cheese. The bagel itself was fresh and soft and somewhat different from other everything bagels I've had. There were not as many seeds and bits on the bagel and just a couple sesame, poppy seed, and sunflower seed. The bagel definitely needs a bit of seasoning or salt, but thankfully tapatio was there to save the day. Overall this is a great spot to pick up some baked goods or a light meal. Really friendly and attentive staff with quick service! read more

So I've seen Lori and Nathan check in on this place for years. Yesterday i made a pit stop at McDonalds and saw the sign while leaving the parking lot. The Solano Baking Co. Was closed, so I figured I i could do by on my way home, time permitting. I'm so glad i did. BEST BLT ever!!!! I was a lottle bummbed that they used microwave bacon, but between the amount of bacon, greens, and firm but juicy tomatoes, EVERY BITE WAS AMAZING!!! I happened to hit it on"happy hour" so the doughnuts were half off! The sandwich came with 2 little chocolate chip cookies. Taking yummy loaf to share at work tomorrow! read more

Finally a warm, if a bit windy, morning. The perfect excuse to take the roadster out to Dixon for breakfast. We arrived a little before 9 a.m. on a Saturday. There were about four customers in line ahead of us and it didn't take long to place our order. All the employees were cheerful and the young woman who took our order was very helpful and enthusiastic about their baked goods. I ordered the classic breakfast bowl and my husband ordered the deluxe breakfast croissant. I had a lavender latte made with almond milk and my husband ordered a cappuccino. We also ordered a couple of pastries. We were given a wooden spoon with a number on it to bring to our table so that they could find us when our food and drinks were ready. A very cute touch in a very cute bakery. It did not take long for our meal to be brought to us and everything was delicious. The portion size of the bowl and sandwich were very generous, we each took half home for later. I liked the lavender flavor of the latte, but it was a tad too sweet for me. I was impressed by the variety of baked goods, both sweet and savory. Quiches, scones, canolli, bagels, cookies, doughnuts, breads, and so much more. As you enter there is also a shelf of day-old items. Each bag is only $1. When we left the bakery at about 9:30 a..m. the line stretched out the door and down the side of the building. read more

If you're in Dixon, Solano Baking is a great place to stop for coffee, baked goods, or breakfast sandwiches.

So Freaking Good - My New Favorite Bakery! This place is dangerously good. From the moment I walked in, the smell alone had me hooked -- fresh pastries, warm bread, and that perfect sweet scent that tells you everything is made with love. I tried a few things (because how could I not?): the croissants were buttery and flaky perfection, the cupcakes were moist and packed with flavor, and the cookies... unreal. Soft in the middle, crisp on the edges -- just how they should be. You can seriously taste the quality in every bite. The staff was super friendly and helpful, answering my million questions with a smile and even making a few awesome recommendations. You can tell they care about what they do, and it shows. Whether you're grabbing a quick treat or picking up something special for a celebration, this bakery absolutely delivers. Hands down one of the best I've ever been to. 10/10 -- I'm already planning my next visit. read more
