Adorable little place! And I do mean little. What it lacks in space it definitely makes up for in deliciousness and cuteness! The Choco Banana Breadosaurus is one of their "hot" items and while it looked amazing we decided on vanilla custard churrovers. They were heavenly! The popover was soft but crispy and the vanilla custard was smooth and creamy. Some other notable goodies they have are chocolate pudding, fresh squeezed orange juice and ubi tres leches cake, something I'm really looking forward to trying next time! They also have non-food items like small resin dinosaurs, pens, stickers, etc. Service was fantastic. We were greeted with a smile that made me feel like a longtime friend, not a first time customer. read more

The Dinersaur - Churrovers - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Cute Dino dessert concept in the heart of Phoenix, though not every flavor was a hit. The order: Savory sesame Key lime pie slice German chocolate cake scoop Chocolate chip cookie What hit: They were able to hold an order just by calling in. They key lime pie & German chocolate cake scoop were very tasty and the cookie as well. What missed: Would skip on the savory sesame, just wasn't for me. To me, the price wasn't exactly worth coming back frequently . Another drawback was the parking. I felt like the location was hard to get to during lunch hours and parking in the complex was difficult. read more

Heard that this bakery was really good, so glad that I was able to try it while being in the area! Super cute bakery! They have lots of baked goods, scoops of cake, and merch! We had the scoop of cake since they do not have whole cakes available unless you preorder it. The German Chocolate scoop of cake we got was really good! Love how moist the cake was and it was not overly sweet. The key lime pie was reallyyyy good!! I can't wait to try out the other pies next time. The chocolate chip with sea salt flakes was chocolatey and a bit harder than I would have liked. They have these cookie letters you can get. Thru take a few minutes to bake if you need them day of. I was able to call in to tell them what letters I wanted and it was ready when I arrived. I got one name and one happy birthday phrase and it was $5. There were so many baked goods I want to try so I cannot wait for my next visit! read more

I have had treats from Dinersaur from a local coffee truck but this was my first stop into the store. We were welcomed in and it's a cute little spot. There isn't any tables inside and can get cramped if there's a few people in line. They have multiple different cookies, breads, cold items, sandwiches. We really enjoyed the Banoffee as I haven't found a local spot that sells it and it's amazing from here. The oatmeal iced cookie was chewy and fabulous. I cannot wait for another stop in to try everything they offer! read more

We found this place by accident and we are so happy we did! We tried some of their deserts and deviled eggs, all were delicious. Super cute store, especially if you have a Dino lover in your family to buy for. My toddler loved it! Service was amazing, the ladies were so nice and helpful. Some of the best deviled eggs I've had and I'm from the south, so I don't say that lightly. read more

We originally thought Dinersaur was a classic diner serving eggs, soups, buffalo wings, fries--typical comfort food. But after doing a bit of research, we realized it's actually a small bake shop. They offer a variety of cookies, pie slices, and small cakes, all with a playful dinosaur theme. To be honest, I wasn't all that impressed (my kid who loves EVERYTHING dinosaur didn't care for it, either) and don't quite understand the hype. Maybe the buzz comes from their limited hours and daily stock, which makes the place seem busier than it is. It's also a very tiny spot--five people inside feels like you're packed in a sardine can. Here's what we picked up during our visit (along with some cute dino stickers): - Chocolate Banana Breadosaurus (dark chocolate, no nuts) - Stroopwafel (butterscotch) - Key Lime Pie - Dino Sugar Cookie (shortbread with whipped royal icing) None of the baked goods really stood out. They were fine, but not so amazing that I'd go out of my way to come back. Definitely not a "must-visit" in my book. Also, seeing a fly chilling inside the baked goods case--on a dropped cookie, no less--was a big turn-off. Eww. Sadly, even if we're in the area again, I don't think we'd return. read more

I don't want to brag, but my husband spoiled me with a birthday cake from here over the weekend. I actually want to brag, because he also bought me additional treats to enjoy! This is the cutest little bakery, and I've been a big time fan since I moved to Arizona back in 2018. When it was time for our 2 year wedding anniversary and everything was on lock down, I wanted us to have a cake to really celebrate. It was beautifully made and so so delicious. We came back over the weekend, and it was the cutest shop with dinosaurs everywhere! I picked up a churrover, an oatmeal cookie with vanilla bean frosting, and raspberry jam linzer cookie! Everyone was so nice and helpful! As for the cake, my husband got us a chocolate olive oil cake with a chocolate pudding, and marscapone frosting! This is such an adorable shop and it's such a plus on how yummy it is! I highly- HIGHLY recommend read more

I just want to say first and foremost, Genius! Genius name, concept, and goods! This little spot is tucked away in a plaza with a huge parking lot adjacent. Cute neutrally decorated spot. Honestly the biggest draw was the dinosaur cookies. When you're traveling with dinosaur obsessed kids this is the place to spot. They also had other baked goods such as a peanut butter pie that we also purchased. We also explored their non baked goods merch. Very cute. Staff was polite and friendly. Overall great little spot. read more

Can I give 6 stars? We got basically one of everything and I wish we got more. The baked goods were delicious!! We really loved the oatmeal cookie, the churro, the chocolate chip cookie. I will say we didn't really like the black sesame cookie, it gives a savory/ sesame oil flavor, and not sweet like we had expected. The Ceaser sandwich was BEYOND good. It also came with chips and a little tea cookie. We fought over the last bite of the sandwich. Everyone inside was very sweet! We got terrific service. It's a cute little shop! The only thing is there's no place to sit and enjoy all the treats! We will definitely be back to try different goodies! read more

I first discovered The Dinersaur at First Place Coffee, my favorite coffee truck in the greater Phoenix Area. Having sampled the banana breadasaurus and churrover (popover X churro + vanilla custard filling), I had to check out their brick & mortar. The Dinersaur offers lunch items in addition to their many baked goods and everything is made fresh daily! Their "eggies snack box" is filled with brightly colored fresh veggies and a delicious egg salad. They also offer seasonal beverages (recently, I found their fall lemonade: lemon, thyme & ginger!) I was lucky enough to snag one of their holiday cookie boxes on pre-order this year and everything was beautiful and delicious! 2 dozen assorted cookies! The staff is patient, knowledgeable and so sweet! The bakery has gone through a few iterations in their floor plan. Currently, the entrance is on Thomas Rd. and all purchases are to-go. There is no seating inside. They've really leaned into the "Dinersaur" theme, as the holiday decor and a lot of merch all include dinosaurs! read more

This was a cute little spot. I love the dinosaur theme. Service was fine. There's lots of parking in the lot behind the building. I don't go to places if the parking sitch is horrible but there were plenty of spots available. I had just left brunch so I didn't buy a bunch of treats. They are pretty reasonably priced. The salted chocolate chip cookie was okay. It had a little too much salt, so much that it overpowered the chocolate and just tasted like a salty cookie. Super cute looking though. The banana bread was adorable. It was shaped like a little stegosaurus. Flavor was kind of bland to be honest. I think the banana and vanilla flavor should be increased, and probably increase the sugar just a bit to really make it pop. Props for being a cute theme, love the vibes, but I wasn't a huge fan of the recipes. Maybe I'll have to go back and get a bigger variety. read more

The Dinersaur is a cute themed bakery that is set up to grab and go. Two of us stopped by during our time in Phoenix and sampled a few of their treats - the chocolate banana bread, dinosaur cookie, and the raspberry jam linzer. Overall the treats were tasty (especially the linzer!) and the overall theme and vibe was super cute. Service was helpful and friendly. I'd recommend stopping by if you are in the area and need a treat! read more

I love dinosaurs and snacks so I love this place so much! It was easy to find and lots of parking. Most things were still available even though I visited late in the day. It's so cute inside and the folks working there are super nice. The price is good for the quality and the service is fast. I got a lemonade, banana bread o saurus and sugar cookies. I also bought some dinosaur gifts (pen and pencils and so on). I wanted a t shirt with the cute art but they were all long sleeve so maybe next time. If you like dinosaurs this is a must visit! I wish we had a location in Utah. I hope I have to come back to Arizona for work again so I can have an excuse to stop by for more bread o saurs! read more

I personally don't understand how a full grown adult could think Dinersaur could have wings hahahahaa!!!!! But! The cakes are always a hit at a party! If you go on instagram you can get inspired by their quality. I've had questions with my orders and received a quick response through email. I've never walked in to hang out just to pick up my cakes. This is a bakery if it's not obvious. Lol read more

I'm from the Seattle area and went to Phoenix for the weekend. I needed a couple cakes super last minute for two of my daughters and called The Dinersaur, the gal on the phone was super sweet, she told me that the bakery was closed the whole weekend for an event but still was nice enough to go ahead and make my two cakes for that Saturday morning. I ordered the Tres Leches and a German Chocolate cake. It worked out perfectly, this cute little shop was literally just four minutes away from our AirBnb and both cakes were delicious. read more

This place smells amazing! And the baked treats don't disappoint. I tried a couple different selections of short bread and the chocolate chip cookie. I'd come back and would bring my daughter to try some new selections. read more

The Dinersaur - Dinersaur Dino Sugar Cookie - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Have stopped in several times with Son after lunch near the Hamburger Works. They accept credit cards only, which means no cash change. Today we had the Salted Chocolate Chip Cookies and Oatmeal Cookies for later. They had other small bites including pastry, pie and cake slices for grab and go. People are friendly and product is fresh. Never had a Salted Chocolate Chip Cookie before. Definitely fresh and tasty, about $3 each. Happy to support an independent small local business! Believe the space used to be part of or next to Mary Coyle"s Ice Cream Parlor. That was also a dessert treat we use to go to as kids with my parents in the 1950's. read more

Pro-tip: Some of the items change around so it's best to check online to see what they currently have. It was a little hard to find, but the parking lot is fairly big. Highlights: Great customer service. I live 30 minutes away and wanted to bring the ice cream back to my boyfriend and they were kind enough to package it with some ice to keep it cold. I loved the variety of items that were offered and would like to go back to try more items and keep supporting their business. Lowlights: I didn't like how some of items weren't on display as you'd normally expect from a bakery, but already in paper bags and containers that hide the item. I like to see exactly what I'm purchasing before buying it. Maybe it was because there was ice with my order, but my cinnamon twist got wet and soggy so definitely not great to eat. I'm a huge ice cream eater and I actually found the Millionaire's Shortbread ice cream way too sweet, I could only eat a spoonful or two at a time. read more

We arrived a few minutes before they opened and there was already a line! This isn't a space to sit and enjoy, it's a grab & go concept. They have their standard chocolate chip cookies w/maldov salt, Dino shaped chocolate chip banana bread, Dino shaped sugar cookie amongst so many other tasty options! We grabbed a little bit of everything and ALL of it is good! That banoffee though! AMAZING! We got the chocolate chip cookies w/maldov salt, Dino shaped chocolate chip banana bread, banoffee cup, Dino sugar cookie, and frosted oatmeal cookies. This is a cute little stop for great treats but also for your little ones who are obsessed with dinosaurs like mine! read more

Stopped into the Dinersaur at the request of my four-year old cousin, who was tickled by the name and the theme. There is a small, but mouthwatering, selection of baked items available (until they sell out for the day). We went at lunch so they were out of a few items, but we were lucky enough to snag the last breakfast cake (layers of poppyseed with a cream filling and lemon curd filling). We also got the cilantro spinach pasta salad, which was excellent, and the poblano veggie sandwich. Thanks for having vegetarian and vegan options! Note the diner is counter service only. There's no seating -- although it would have been nice if they had a couple tables outside. read more

Went for Dino shaped treats but grabbed some other yummy treats, too I loved my Stegasaurus shaped sugar cookie with vanilla bean frosting, and the kids enjoyed their chocolate banana bread TRex. Those were the Dino goodies, but there were so many other yummy looking treats! In the fridge, there were pie slices and pudding. On the counter were almond cookies and crinkle cookies. Also, on the menu were sandwiches made to order. Instagram: @msbusyblonde read more

Very cute, unpretentious bakery, lovely staff, and a good variety of goodies that remind you of those pies, cookies, and cakes in the Bon Appétit magazines. I love how it is an open kitchen and that right when you walk in, you are greeted by the employees. You can tell everything is made from scratch, use high-quality ingredients, and have a touch of uniqueness, whether it be in favor, layering, or appearance. Banana cream pie ($6.50/slice) was delicious (would recommend theirs over Pie Snob's or Piefection's), and the seasonal strawberry and plum biscuits cup was both eye catching and tasty! The only downsides are that it is the cups are little pricey ($10/each) and that they are open only 11am-3pm! Wish they were closer to me and open longer! read more

Wow. The dark chocolate pudding from Dinersaur delicious. It came in a glass jar, and was not overly sweet. It appeared ultra high quality and went down super smooth. I wish it was bigger! I had a bite of the lavender cake as well. Truly unique, it's flavor was a little potent for my liking, but is was creative and delicious nonetheless. read more

Truly hidden gem! I first found about this place when I tried one of their pastries at first place coffee truck. I visited their store in Thomas a few weeks ago and decided to try a couple of things. They're specialty is sweets however they have a small selection of cold savory sandwiches. I had the root which has roasted golden beet, egg, bell pepper. It was good and it comes with potato chips and a very tasty tea cookie. My favorite is their dark chocolate pudding, so creamy and smooth. I also loved their key lime pie. They are open Wednesday thru Sunday from 11 am to 3pm. There's plenty of parking in the back. read more

One of my favorite bakeries of all time. Everyone who works here is so nice and attentive to customers. Lots of unique takes on traditional desserts with great execution each time. I bought a London Fog tres leches for a friend's birthday and he loved it. Once the holiday time comes around, all of the cookies are amazing and have such cute themes. The other day I bought a summer birdie sandwich, so you can't go wrong with their savories either! read more
