A J King Artisan Bakers - Salem

My go to bakery in the area! Breads are delicious. Also really appreciate them taking care of their back of house staff really don?t mind the surcharge at all, would much rather pay a surcharge knowing it?s shared among the employees making the foodrather than tripping for it only to go to the wait staff. Y?all are awesome, thank you for being a community staple!

Yummy spot for lunch. Sandwiches are big and reasonably priced. We heard their olive loaf and sourdough loaf are to die for, but they were sold out by the afternoon. Definitely would go back the next time I'm in the area to give more of their baked goods atry.

This place is a bit pricey, but it's absolutely worth it if you're looking for something deliciously sweet in the morning. The sticky buns, kouign-amanns, apple tarts, cookies, scones, muffins, and breads here are exceptional. Whenever I visit, I typically end up spending around $100, and let me tell you, it's worth every penny. I would share pictures, but I ended up eating everything! I give it a perfect 10/10—definitely give this place a try.

The pastries, sandwiches, and croissants were absolutely outstanding. The coffee was excellent as well. What’s great is that the location isn’t in a bustling area, so it has a relaxed atmosphere. The staff were also very charming.

They charge for a cup of water and automatically add fees to your bill. I visit this place when I’m in the area because I really enjoy their multigrain bread. Today, I had lunch, which included a sandwich and cappuccino for myself, and a sandwich, cappuccino, and glass of water for my wife. Later, I was shocked to see my receipt totaled over $40, with a 14% administrative fee automatically included, and they charged me $1.25 for a cup of water! Seriously? I usually tip 20% wherever I go, but this is not a good business model. I won’t be returning. They should just raise their prices instead.
