Recipe Bakery - Santa Barbara

Recipes Bakery has a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home as soon as you step inside. The staff is friendly and provides excellent customer service. I particularly enjoyed their blueberry scones and chocolate chip cookies, which were my favorites!

I really enjoy a delicious cinnamon roll, and this place served some of the best I’ve ever tasted.

This place is authentically Australian—yes, you heard me right! Completely unexpected and definitely a nice surprise. Be sure to try their Flat White; the house-made vanilla syrup is a must as well. They have a wonderful selection of fresh, homemade pastries. I ordered the banana bread, which had a lovely balance of sweet and savory, and it was warmed on a griddle—just like Nana used to make! I know they’re famous for their cinnamon rolls, so I’ll definitely return to taste one when I crave something sweet. When I visited, the quiches were sold out and quite popular; one patron even claimed it’s the best in town—a bold statement! With the holidays approaching, I noticed they are offering handmade pies for purchase, and I plan to preorder two for our family Thanksgiving this year. They have an endless array of flavors to choose from, including pumpkin, apple, and various berries. Hooroo, mate! Oh, and for those needing it, there’s a ramp at the entrance for wheelchair accessibility.

I love cinnamon rolls so much and this cinnamon roll is the best I have had. The atmosphere of this bakery is laid back. The gentleman that took my order was friendly and brought a warmth about his shop that was comforting. Highly recommend going here and if you don't you are truly missing out on a true gem.

Cinnamon rolls were the bomb and the service was super friendly!!
