Incredible bakery where everything—from flavors to techniques—is executed with absolute precision. The space is surprisingly large, with plenty of seating downstairs, even more upstairs, and a few outdoor tables as well. As expected, they're known for their pastries and baked goods, but they also offer an extensive menu of coffee, drinks, and a few sandwiches. I started with the breakfast …
The sweets and the coffee were the star of the show. Coffee was amazing and the cream brûlée macarons were amazing. Tiramisu was good and beautiful.
Great specialty coffee with a mezzanine and outdoor seating. The pastries are exceptional. I've visited about ten cafes now and this is, by far, the best one. Prices are reasonable, and staff very pleasant to talk with :-)
Beautifully prepared and delicious food. Stopped by this morning to load up on pastries for family that was visiting, got a few tea cakes and donuts some savory treats like the gruyere and shallots croissants and tried some new things with the miso caramel cookie. Everything that we got was flavorful and well-cooked. The lobby is bright and open and …
We visited for the first time and can’t wait to go back. The pastries are not only beautiful but some of the best we’ve had in Seattle.

The style of pastry is more what I would call "European", less sugar and much more varied in texture and subtle flavor such as pistachio, almond, …
So it’s been a minute since I’ve been to temple and wouldn’t you know it, it’s like their baker Christina Wood was a James Beard semi finalist 🤷🏻♀️ huh who knew. Well based on the line that was outside the door, quite a few people! This place is a cute little corner shop that has room for seating both inside, …
This is a love letter to Temple Pastries, undoubtedly one of the very best bakeries in the entire US. It easily competes with the top NYC spots in a very special way. Bakeries are usually known for one or two things that they do better than competitors. At Temple, it wasn’t just one or two things. Everything I’ve tried was …
Temple pastries is definitely worth a five star! This place is the best bakery we’ve been to so far in Seattle. They are incredible. If you go prepared to wait as there is a long line. Although it moves along pretty steady. The place is nice and clean, although there’s limited seating. As she walked through the store they have …
