I would wager that every bakery in Yakima is fantastic and filled with bakers who genuinely love what they do and put that passion into every loaf, every doughy, sticky, and flaky delight they bring out of the oven.

Do You Have a Favorite Yakima Bakery?

The only carb count I really care about includes bread and potatoes. Wait, that's two. Today, let's focus on the breads, the pastries, the desserts, oh my!

Here's a list of bakery goods that have Yakima locals and travelers raving far and wide, even in Reddit threads.

Essencia Artisan Bakery

4 N 3rd St

Customers love their flaky French Kouign Amann pastries, freshly baked artisan breads, and the tarts in the dessert display case.

 

Yaki-Mama Bakery

Email your order to yakimamabakery@gmail.com or call (509) 859-4857.

What started as a hobby suggested she take up by her son and husband has turned into an incredible local small business! Yaki-Mama offers porch pickups from her home in West Valley, as well as pop-up vendor sales. I've had the pleasure of tasting some of her breads and I'm a huge fan!

Viera's Bakery

516 W Lincoln Ave

I've been known to hound them for their cheese zombies and tomato soup, but most customers go there for pan dulce, churros, and apple fritters.

P R O V I S I O N S restaurant + market

2710 Terrace Heights Dr

I had not heard of the pavlova dessert until someone asked about it online in the Yakima reddit community. It's a meringue-y treat that is apparently hard to find in Yakima, but is reportedly sold at this restaurant in the Terrace Heights neighborhood.
