Essence Bakery--arcadia - Phoenix

Pastries are delicious!! Their twisted sugared croissant were pure buttery goodness, similar to a kouign amann, but less sticky. Unfortunately, their prepared foods don’t live up to the pastries and the coffee is awful, organic or not. Would be back for more pastries!

Essence is one of our favorites stops when we visit Phoenix! Never disappoints.

Just a sublime place to have breakfast. Service was not that good. We waited for 2 cappuccinos for good 30 minute.

It's all about the pastries. We stop by weekly and load up for the week. A wonderful selection to be had from croissants to brioche and cinnamon vanilla twists.

Our family goes here once a week for bread and croissants. Haven’t tried the meal specials yet but will do so soon. Everything is fresh and delicious that we have tried!!!!
