    Of the places I got try cake in Tucson (since my friends ordered 2 here on 2 different occasions), this place became a favorite ---CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE! we ordered one for our friends bday & it was SO moist and rich yet not too sweet!! Yummmm ---Vanilla cake beautiful with turquoise decor: the Vanilla frosting was a bit sweet but there was a layer of chocolate frosting inside! AGAIN the cake was moist I would totally get another cake for any occasion here!! I hear they do wedding cakes and I wonder if they sell by the slice since i never got to visit the actual shop

    The fruit tart is my long time favorite and the frosted cookies....soft and delicious! The pies are very good as well as the magic bar's. So, desserts are a definitive YES YES! Here is the tricky part; service is slow moving and at time's the servers get confused with an order. They have recently expanded yet still it is way to crowded. Crowded means they obviously do good business. Bottom line for me.....baked goods worth the wait and occasional correction of wrong order. Food not worth the wait and slow service.

    I'm torn between 3-4 stars... Love the variety of pastries, decent menu too... Food isn't amazing. You look around and it's definitely more of an older crowd. I'd go again, if in the area but wouldn't go out of my way. Staff was really friendly and on top of helping.

    The cakes and desserts here are incredible! I've had numerous red velvet cakes from them and they're perfection. The decorator is amazing as well. Custom designs always come out colorful and adorable.

    Village Bakehouse is a bakery with a nice homey, local feel. There's a large covered patio and seating inside as well. They have a coffeee bar and breakfast/lunch menu--which I haven't tried anything from yet--but I can say that I have been made into a fan of their desserts and pastries. All taste homemade and made with care. I am not a big fan of key lime or macaroons, but their key lime macaroons are my absolute favorite of their baked treats so far!

    This place is in the same strip mall as Trader Joe's and was packed on a Tuesday for Lunch. It is one of those order and they give you a table number, and deliver the food to you, kind of establishments. They have a small crowded indoor seating area and a spacious covered and uncovered outdoor patio. They have a vast assortment of Paninis, hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soups as well as your standard bakery fare. I recently had lunch out on the patio here with my step mom while visiting them in Tucson. I ordered the soup and half sandwich. I ordered the Village Bakehouse half sandwich which had a generous amount of smoked turkey, with Havarti cheese, avocado, lettuce and tomato. I ordered it without the mayo and asked for mustard. The managed to mix that up but corrected the situation. The half sandwich was a very large portion - seemed more like a whole sandwich. It was good, but the "crusty" baguette was too dense. I had ended up eating mostly just the sandwich fixings without the bread. Since they are a bakery, I would have expected a more true baguette - but that is my personal preference. The tortilla soup was delicious. It had a generous amount of vegetables and tortilla chips and good flavor. The lunch menu seemed like a good value, but as we perused the bakery menu for a cake order, it seemed like they were more priced for weddings than the general public. I did not try them, so I would not know if they were worth the money. I only have the baguette to go by regarding their bakery skills. I just ordered water to go with my sandwich. When I asked for a large cup, unless I wanted a Styrofoam cup, they charged me 25 cents for a plastic cup and lid, which I paid. Kind of quirky, but to each their own. The value on the lunches seemed to be good, and the soup delicious, but the sandwich did not blow me away. While I would eat here again, not sure I would seek them out for lunch. It appears they are open for Breakfast and Lunch. Maybe next time I am at Trader Joe's in Tucson in the morning, I will check out their breakfast.

    The place to go if you're looking for the perfect Strawberry Rhubarb pie, my weakness here- when they have it, I've got to get it. All of their baked goods are hard to pass up and I have had just about everything. I go here occasionally for breakfast, it's nicer in cooler months to eat outside on the patio. Very casual, low key place to eat and enjoy the morning. Never any pressure to "hurry up and get done" which I really appreciate. I like to get coffee and something to eat and just drool over the pastries I can't have :) If you haven't been, it should be on your list. They also have take home cakes and loaves of bread.

    My boyfriend and I went for sandwiches and Iced Caffe Mochas To-Go and his sandwich was only half when we ordered and paid for a whole sandwich. I was so sad cause I was looking forward to this being a go-to spot for us. So we went the next day to try a few pastries and mentioned what happened, the manager gifted us 10 dollars and apologized. The pastries are spot on and their cakes are absolutely super moist. Best Iced Caffe Mocha ever.

    Totally cute place to grab a bite to eat. The outdoor seating is shady enough for outdoor seating, which is great. I used to come here prior to the addition of the outdoor seating just to pick up bread and pastries. The extra seating really makes this place feel like more than just a bakery now. I had the spinach salad ($9) which had super bomb thick cut fatty crunchy Applewood bacon, red onion, shrooms, toasted pecans, raisins and Gorgonzola. The balsamic honey and thyme dressing was really nice as well- not overly syrupy and sweet. There were far too many red onions on the salad for my taste, but no big deal because they were easy to pull off since they weren't mixed in. The staff clearing the tables were super friendly- we had an elderly gentlemen who was chatty and funny with us. haha "Help yourself to more free water.." Sweet guy.

    Always great food. They serve many varieties of food and all the pastry goodness you can handle. It's a full bakery so they always have cool stuff. The fresh bread is amazing. I enjoy their sandwiches, the reuben is my favorite. I always get an Italian cream soda with a double shot. The portions are just right, I order a half sandwich so I have room for dessert, because hey that's REALLY why I go there. Recently the outside patio was upgraded with an awning and heaters. Just in time for the cool weather. No reason not to sit outside this time of year.

    Delicious carrot cake!! Called the night before to order a birthday carrot cake and they were very nice to take my order and make sure they understood the time I needed to pick it up. They did a fantastic job with the decoration, a bike, and the cake was just full of flavor not too sweet but not bland either, just the perfect balance of deliciousness.

    Went in to try their cinnamon rolls because of the reviews. They are HUGE. I have an average sized hand and if I spread my fingers and draw a circle around them and below my wrist, the roll would be a tad smaller. And reasonably priced, too, about $2.50! They were fluffy. Not gooey, though, but nice and fluffy. I liked the copious amounts of icing, too. My wife thought the icing could be better. When pressed for specifics, she couldn't give me any, so I can't give you any, either. But I found nothing wrong with it. I do like my cinnamon rolls gooey, though and this fell short in that category. But a great cinnamon roll, regardless. The place this Saturday morning was packed, with the parking lot at this strip mall filled immediately in front of it. There are 12 or so tables inside and around 20-ish tables outside. People with food were happy and happily chowing down. I looked at their menu and looked at their two Saturday specials and wished that I was here for breakfast, so I will have to return with my wife some morning.

    If your looking for fancy? This is not your place. But if you are looking for grandma's old fashion pie, you are at the right place. The smell of pies draws you into the bakery. You see BIG pies by the counter, fresh bread with olives baked and flaky buttery croissants as you walk in.

  • Maureen N.

    We saw Village Bakeshop's reviews on Yelp so we thought we'd try it out. Awesome breakfast for a decent price. We both had an omelet fluffy and loved it. And we splurged on something sweet - chocolate croissant & pecan sticky bun. Best ever. Staff was friendly & helpful. You place the order at the counter & they bring your food. We sat outside on the patio and really enjoyed it. Will return when in the area.

    In the mood for a pastry this morning so I had to stop by. The selection of baked goods is varied and delicious! I ordered the baked cherry fritter and an iced cappuccino. I have to say, it was way better than Starbucks (and better priced). I came here a few months ago and tried the heart healthy orange cookies and the Linzer cookies, they did not disappoint. Everything is fresh, the staff is nice and I prefer to frequent local establishments.

  • David G.

    This review is for the baked goods; we did not try their sandwiches. Village Bakehouse is a destination bakery for their sweets. The bread we tried was no better than supermarket quality, but who cares -- we had a couple of desserts, each of which was excellent. I hesitate to recommend any one thing because everyone has their favorites -- squares, pastries, cupcakes, whole cakes, twists, macarons, etc., etc. I bet they are all good.

    Great little bake shop in the strip mall near Trader Joes. All pastries look extremely delicious, and I can vouch for the fudge & strudel. The coffee was a little weak, but this is a great place to relax and chat.

    If you are on a diet, this place is certainly your doom. The pastries are just amazing, this is honestly the first scone I've ever eaten that I actually enjoyed, and do not get me started on the eclairs. The food is actually very good as well, the potatos are amazing, as well as the toast they give as part of most breakfast sets. They also have high chairs for the little ones and great coffee.

    THE. BEST. WEDDING CAKE. EVAR. I normally prefer indulgences of the salty and crunchy variety - my wedding cake was pretty low on my list of priorities...until I tried samples at the Village Bakehouse. From their offerings my husband and I pieced together a bare chocolate cake with a chocolate ganache frosting with fresh raspberries between the layers. Holy mother of God, it was not only the greatest wedding cake I've ever eaten, but the best cake I've ever eaten. The top of the cake did not survive the drive home to Los Angeles (our home until recent). Not only that, the presentation of the cake was exquisite, and Paulette is a doll. Definitely check this establishment out if you're in the market for wedding cake...or just cake.

  • Lucy W.

    Know going in, this is a strip mall order at a counter restaurant. That being said, very interesting sandwich selection. We had one panini, one cranberry bread with cream cheese, avocado, sprouts(fabulous), and a grilled chicken sandwich, and a fruit tart. Only complaint is the chicken breast was minuscule, soooo small. As others have noted, they are a bit unorganized, which slows them down a bit, otherwise, beautiful yummy food and baked goods.

    Loved this place! Went on a Saturday morning and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Ordered pancakes, ham/cheese/egg croissant, and stuffed French toast. All where yummy! The croissant wS simple but very tasty and I prefer their breads to other places. Took a cinnamon type roll home, it has nuts and frosting or something different on it. It was so good! Clean, smells good, and staff is friendly.

  • Cat B.

    This place is a good American breakfast spot. It was really A-OK! I had the basic breakfast, scrambled eggs, home fries, and toast. The eggs were really pretty good. The potatoes were great - Red not Yukons - the way to go. The toast was really good too - not too much butter and good sourdough. And, you can't beat the price. My main complaints seem pretty fixable and are likely due to the new format of the place. #1 - Put up an "Order Here" sign at the far order counter...confusing since there are two counters. #2 - Put down (tape on the ground) or put up (a rope system) for which way the line is supposed to curl around the small seating space - so customers don't have to be the one instructing new comers. #3 - Figure out a better way to figure out which tables have which numbers - perhaps instruct people to leave the number at the edge of the table...or simply call the number out... it's frustrating to see your breakfast pass you by and go outside and all around all the tables...only to have it come back to the beginning where you were sitting all along...own it...calling out table numbers is fun! #4 - Put jam on the tables...(maybe even make your own!) You all seem to have some good customer love and wishing you all the best of luck and many successful years.

    My partner and I visited Village Bakehouse with the intention to study. We arrived, and while the outdoor seating is spacious, it was chilly out, so we elected to sit inside. The inside was very crowded and cramped. We found an open table against the wall and put our things down before perusing the beautiful pastries. I got an almond croissant and a coffee and my partner got an egg and cheese croissant and a coffee as well. The food and coffee were very good. Be careful, though, because the coffee seemed very hot. There were so many delicious looking pastries to choose from that I will definitely go back to try. In the end, we didn't end up studying there. We ate and left. It wasn't really a studying kind of place.

    I had breakfast here and got an outstanding ham, egg, and cheese quesadilla here for breakfast the other day while dining in. I also had a cake ordered from here last week with fruit jam filing and marzipan icing. Holy moley! Sweet and savory--it's all outstanding!

I would recommend this place to anyone, I can't wait to go back :)

    Being new to Tucson, I went here to order a cake for my daughter's 1st birthday on account of the good Yelp reviews. I brought in a picture of a cake I found on Pinterest, asked them to scale it down a bit, add her name and use buttercream instead of fondant (because who really likes fondant?). The price they quoted me was half of what I was prepared to pay, so I was cautiously optimistic the cake would be all I wanted it to be, especially with all my instructions. But when I went to pick it up, my eyes seriously welled up with tears. It was SO PERFECT, I can't even. Exactly as I had imagined it. I also had them make a little smash cake to match the big cake which was ridiculously precious as well. The buttercream looked like fondant -- it was that expertly done. Everyone at the party raved about the cake -- not only how cute it was but how it tasted. If you like soft, chocolatey cake goodness with sugary buttercream (emphasis on butter), you will love their cakes. This is definitely my go-to bakery from now on.

  • Peg P.

    What a sweet place! We stopped by to check out the pumpkin bars and pumpkin spice muffins we'd read about in the newspaper (and they did NOT disappoint) and stayed for lunch. The salads, veggie sandwich, and turkey sandwich were very tasty. The many artisan breads and wide selection of sweet delights (including wedding cakes to order) will keep me coming back. That's for sure. Right now they have lots of pumpkin and apple goodies to celebrate the season. Another great reason to visit them again soon.

  • Sophia B.

    Oh, this place has potential. The baked goods are delicious, the service is not excellent, and the business owners don't seem interested in improving what they are providing. After confusion about who to give my order to, I reached the register. I told the young man at the register that I would like whichever of the soups was vegetarian. He rang me up. When my food was delivered at the table, I specifically asked if the soup was vegetarian. Two women who delivered the food said it was. It was not. They served a vegetarian chicken soup even after being specifically asked about it. I sent the soup back, and then had my meal interrupted an additional 2-3 times by their employees. Because their mistake necessitates them interrupting my meal to unpleasantly pseudo-apologize. Some excuses given: "We have a lot of new girls working here." (I gave my order to a man.) (Also, you told me the soup was vegetarian when you delivered it) "We ran out of the soup so we substituted another." At this point I replied that I would have understood it if the cashier had told me that they were out of the vegetarian soup. I understand mistakes happen in food service, but the buck needs to stop somewhere. It's not okay to serve people food they have been specifically asked not to. I would not recommend trusting this restaurant with a food allergy or sensitivity problem. I hope this bakery can step up to the plate.

    During a recent visit to Tucson this place was highly recommended. I was at the end of a long business and pleasure weekend. I was in the mood for a great cup of coffee and some non-supermarket tasty baked pastry or cake. The Village Bakehouse was not far off my route back to the highway. Was I in for a surprise! Was this so-called bakery and coffee house that did not serve milk as a condiment for coffee or tea real? This is one of the first times I asked for my money back. I did it for two reasons. The first is obvious. The second one is at the cashier waitress had no idea what I was talking about and I actually lied a little telling me that they did have milk. What I didn't want was the watered down stuff. I wanted regular milk. Some call it whole milk. Others seem to have coined the phrase of vitamin D milk. They just didn't have it. Amazing! It really ruined my stop. No, that's not all. The so-called bakery had a nice aroma to it. I spotted a cinnamon stick and ordered it. Sure, it smelled great. But would you enjoy the nibbling on a cinnamon flavored piece of wood? I don't think so. What they served seemed like it was in the case for two weeks and dried out. Oh...what a horrible experience this place was for me. Avoid it, at least for coffee and cake. Am I glad there was a Dunkin' Donuts not far away.

    Amazing bakery and very reasonably priced!!! We first used them for my fiance's brother's rehearsal dinner. I was in charge of the dessert table so we ordered lemon bars, brownies and two 8inch round cakes with designs on them. Village bakehouse was so easy to work with. Everyone at the party raved about how great the cakes were. Fast forward a few months my fiance asked the head baker if they could make a vanilla rose water cake. My family is from Jamaica and we use a lot of rosewater in our desserts. They had never done this before but were willing to try. My fiance took over the rosewater he wanted to be used and left it in their hands. I was so surprised at how delicious it was. I think I must have had close to 10 pieces of cake that weekend. It was sooo delicious and extremely moist. The icing was vanilla buttercream and was to die for. Thank you Village Bakehouse

    This was my first and last time visiting this place. Very small and cramped. We placed our order and picked a spot to sit. 20 minutes later we were still waiting for our 1.5 sandwiches and 1 salad. We asked one of the women about it, she said it would be out shortly. 30 mins after we placed our order that same woman came by again and said it would be out soon. We politely reminded her it had been 30 mins and her reply was "I know that's why I went back to check on it". I was flabbergasted by how rude she was. Come to find out, our order had NEVER BEEN SENT TO THE KITCHEN! So her telling us it was coming soon was a flat out lie. Needless to say we got a refund and were offered some pastries. We needed a meal not a pastry. Very disappointed in the service here. Especially since I was scouting this place as a potential bakery for my wedding. I can cross it off the list!

    We were referred here by multiple happy customers who raved about their cakes! Since I am planning my wedding, I booked a cake tasting with Paulette. She was awesome! Very easy going, yet gave us her honest opinion. And their cake selections are to break any diet plan for! Dense, moist cake with fresh frosting. I have been here a few times before for breakfast and I literally drool over their fresh pastry selection. Its hard to ever get just ONE sweet thing while you are there. The only downfall is it can get very busy and somewhat hectic in the small store. They have extended their patio which makes up for the lack of space inside. This bakery is worth the time and money, especially if you are in need of a yummy cake!

    I love it here.... This is a step up from a bagel shop for sure... Breakfasts are very good and the new patio is awesome... We used to have to fight for a table but the seating has at least doubled now... The coffee is delicious there as well.... Never a complaint

    You need a Cinnamon Roll from the bake house. You probably need two; life would have just a little less happiness and light without their Cinnamon Rolls. The coffee and salads are also excellent, a lovely Saturday morning breakfast treat.

    Such a great and unique bakery on the north side! Not only do they have a great bakery with yummy treats for everyone, their full service menu is delightful! Space is limited, but the ambiance is very nice and calming. Staff is kind! I'd definitely recommend

    Huge variety of goodies, drinks and savory breakfast and lunch dishes. Everything is delicious. Staff is friendly and speedy. Large outdoor seating area in the shade. LOVE the decaf apricot iced tea.

    We were excited to get a treat here however we were met with rude service behind the counter! It was like a burden to ring up or items. The guy just walked away and forgot to give me a coffee cup or tell me where to get the coffee, which was empty anyway! We ordered a can of sprite and I was told "At the corner" as though I knew what that meant! Took 10 min. to get a can of sprite! I ordered a black and white cookie, which coming from NYC, I was so excited to see. It was awful! I didn't even finish it! :( overall bad visit and won't be back!

    We had been looking for a good local bakery since we moved to AZ last year, and we have found it! EVERYTHING we have tried is absolutely amazing! From the pies to the French macarons to the chicken salad sandwich, it is all incredible! A local gem:)

    Nice little place for lunch.. had the Ruben wife had the egg salad and a cup of chicken tortilla soup.. I also had an Americano coffee.. we took some pastries to go and had them later. I had the pumpkin cream cheese muffin she had a cake shot. All was very good..

    Have been n Tucson for about 20+ years, never been here before today. Ordered the Grilled Turkey and Brie, it was fantastic.The bread (garlic-thyme) was great and the turkey and brie went together well. Also Had a cup of Soup de Jour (Cheddar-Potato-Bacon, I believe), soup was decent. My 3 other family members got an omelette, breakfast burrito and a Sassy Sally grilled chicken sandwich, all 3 liked their food. Only took about 12-15 minutes, everything was hot and delicious (employee brings food to your table, with necessary silverware and napkins.) They have a great selection of hot teas and coffees, I got tea (and was pleasantly surprised when they had Crockett's Honey, an Arizona brand). I was pleased with lunch so my brother and I decided to order some pastries. Got a Heart Health orange cookie, blueberry-cheese danish, cinnamon coffee cake, and a Pecan Sticky bun. Pricing was a tad on pricey side, but pretty much what you'd expect in Oro Valley. Overall pastry quality was excellent. It all seems to be freshly made and delicious.

    My coworkers and i LOVED this place, we came here at LEAST 3 times a week for the past 5 years and there are 6 of us. This last Saturday, we had a very very terrible experience with the owner, Paulette. It was our first time ever encountering her and it was so horrible, we will never return. Customers should never have to experience being treated or talked to the way she did to us. She also really mistreated a great employee in front of us, other customers, and his peers. This is a huge bummer because we loved this place so much. We recommended it to all our customers, but now we fear they will be treated the same way. I just can not believe that she was the owner, so unprofessional.

    This is my first review on Yelp. I felt that I needed to set it straight. This place is amazing! The service was outstanding! The atmosphere was so mellow. I was wanting to try a bakery in Tucson so read many reviews. I truly do not understand any of the past negative reviewers. You will love this place! Great sandwiches...amazing desserts....just fantastic.

    Tried the bakehouse today for something new. The pastries looked amazing but we went for lunch. I was torn between the Best of the Southwest Salad and the hot Zucchini sandwich. I went with the latter and was wishing I had ordered the salad. I asked for brie and multigrain brea instead of feta on a french roll. It came out dripping oil from the sautéed veggies. I think it was called a grilled sandwich but between the butter on the bread and the oil dripping off the veggies I almost had to eat the sandwich with a knife and fork. The flavors were good but the brie was almost non existent. I think with less oil this would be a great sandwich. My sister ordered the greek salad and said it was one of the best she's had. I tasted the dressing and it was very good. More lemony than most greek dressings. My nephews grilled cheese sandwich was tasty as were the cookies we chose for the kids. As far as service...all the people crammed behind the counter, not one seemed to know their place. There wasn't much direction from a manager if there even is one. There are 2 registers with people at both but then a girl in the middle answering the phone talking over everyone else. It was hard to know where to go and who I was supposed to give my order to. The kid who took my order might have been new or might just not have a clue bc for instance I had to come back and ask if they bring my drink or I need to get a cup. Someone else told me I needed to grab it from the end of the counter. We overheard him telling an older couple outside that if they wanted their drinks they needed to go inside to get them. As a former waitress, we thought he should've said they get them inside for future reference but that he'd be glad to go grab them. Also I took our plates inside when we were finished and there wasn't any place to put them bc everyone else also just stacked their used dishes on the counter--lack of bussing. I do think we will be back though to eat more salads. The patio is also nice.

    This place serves American style breakfast. Do not expect patisserie here. Their cinnamon roles are very large and covered in icing. It's a sugar coma waiting to happen. The cheese/cherry danish was quite good. The coffee was mediocre and took a while to prepare. Avoid during rush breakfast hours on the weekend.

  • Dawn K.

    I was tipped of by the cashier at Sprouts that the best cinnamon rolls in town were right across the street. This was no lie. I have had cookies,cupcakes, pies, sandwiches and soups...everything being exceptional. Since I am always on the look out for vegetarian food options, the have great grilled veggie sandwiches and hummus wraps. I think despite the super great pastries, it's there soups which is really WOW amazing. The hard part is, choosing to have soup and sandwiches rather than just have pastries for lunch. They are open for lunch until 6pm, so if you are in a soup and sandwich mood please check it out. They also sell fresh baked breads and rolls. So this place has a whole lot going on. My only complaint is they don't have is much space to dine. There are 20 tables, more than half outside, so you are eating outside of a huge strip mall on the sidewalk watching people fighting traffic in the parking lot (not the best way to enjoy good food). If you do eat inside, you typically have patrons looking over the pastry cases ordering or standing in line to order standing 2-3 feet from you, while eating at any given table inside.

    I love this place for breakfast!!! I typically do a build your own omelet with spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms and swiss. The portions are huge, and the prices are great for the amount of food you get. Their pastries are also incredible. The blueberry danish is my favorite. The food is always fresh and beautiful and our order has never been wrong, despite how busy they are. The service is also great. The older gentleman who works there is always very sweet and conversational with us. I will be having all of my special occasion cakes made here. The only downside is how small it is, so you want to try to beat the crowds or try to get outside seating on the covered patio. That won't stop us from going frequently, though.

  • Sara E.

    Quality has gone downhill. I got my husband the breakfast burrito and he asked me, with all sincerity, if it was from the taco bell breakfast menu. It was also very expensive. One burrito, one piece of zucchini bread, and two plain coffees ended up being $18.

    After hearing about Village Bakehouse time and again from trusted sources, I finally made the trip. Why did I wait so long?! We headed out on a weekday morning for a ladies breakfast. The place was hoping at 10 am on a Tuesday. Interesting. So we put in our order at the counter, ring us up, grab a seat outside. We enjoy a little bit of the fabulous Tucson weather and do some people watching before our food comes out. WOW! I'm sure everyone knows about the zucchini bread, but everything else was just as wonderful! Baked goods, obviously, but eggs to fruit, everything was top notch. Great value, super food, good service and location!

    I have eaten here multiple times over the past few years and I have to admit, I'm a decent fan. Their pastries are to die for! I'm a huge fan of their cinnamon rolls in particular. (Pro-tip; Have them heat them up for you. You won't be sorry!). The people who work there have worked there for years and know what they're doing. The only reason I chopped this place down was because of their sandwiches. Theyre tasty, but for the same price I feel I could get something a little heartier at schlomos(or a number of other places). The Village Bakehouse is definitely a go-to for a good fix. Like I said, their pastries are delicious and habit-forming. There are definitely worse things you could be addicted to!

    We've eaten breakfast here twice in the past week; it's that good!! The home-made bread, pasteries, and breakfasts are all "excellent". This was a real find and we just stumbled on it looking for a place for breakfast one morning--but checked Yelp first. You won't be disappointed with anything that the Bakehouse turns out. The restaurant itself (inside) is a bit cramped, but there's plenty of seating outside. Service is "good." I have a feeling this will be a "regular" for us.

    This is the best pastry shop I have found in Tucson to date. My father loves the chocolate eclairs, I love the almond croissants and the coffees. My main complaint is how small this place is. So many people go here, because it is really that good! It would also be awesome if they made french macarons. I am so happy this place is not that far from my home. If you enjoy almond, go for the croissants and bear claws. YUM!

  • Natasha S.

    They have the BEST cinnamon rolls. My mom and I used to go here for breakfast all the time when I was in high school and I still consider this to be one of the best bakeries in town. Their sourdough and ciabatta is amazing as well as the asiago black pepper bread! Also, whenever I get breakfast, I order a side of bacon, because it MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH. I do love some of the other bakeries in town but NO ONE has better cinnamon rolls...NO ONE.

    Note: This review is of their wedding cake only and based off experiences in April 2010. Amazing. Wouldn't change anything about our experience or the products they provided. We met with many bakeries and Paulette with Village Bakehouse blew us away. We had been considering tarts instead of cake and Paulette was the only bakery to provide a sample. Also, the design we wanted for the cake was made out to be a very difficult design by others and we had been told it would likely need to be done in fondant - which, if at all possible, we did not want. During our tasting, Paulette whipped up a sample in a flash and it was exactly what we wanted. My husband's parents decided to order him a groom's cake - a VW mini bus. It could have turned out goofy, or awesome, and it was definitely the latter. It was adorable. People cracked up over it. Not only did our cake(s) turn out unbelievably gorgeous, it tasted amazing too! We got pink champagne with Italian butter cream, sour cream chocolate with chocolate ganache, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, and autumn spice with classic buttercream. The cake could have been made in only three tiers, but we couldn't decide on just three flavors (all so good), so Paulette made it in four (still the same amount of cake) and it was the perfect size. Paulette really made the experience for us - so talented, sweet and responsive. I would recommend the Village Bakehouse to any bride.

    Have been here several times but haven't yet yelped about it. Nonetheless I love it. Great pastries, cookies, cakes, all things that wreak havoc on your insulin levels. I've honestly only done breakfast but assume the other things are good as well. Staff is friendly, Paulette is amazing, and the coffee ain't too shabby. Prices are totally reasonable. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't yet!

    We always buy our birthday cakes here and it is 100% the best cakes in town! Never disappointing! The cakes are beautiful and taste better than they look. We eat there every few months and enjoy the breakfast and lunch options! If you are looking for somewhere great to eat in the North West then this is your place! YUMMY

    I stumbled upon the stand VBH has at the St. Phillip's Farmer's Market on Sunday. I purchased some olive oil and pepper bread and was hooked. I visited the location when visiting a shop nearby. They have plenty of indoor and patio seating, the service is fast and you can't beat the array of pastries and fresh breads (or the smell of fresh baked bread that fills the parking lot). I ordered some Jalapeno Cheese bread and it was great. I also had a cinnamon roll and was in heaven. The frosting was not to heavy and definitely not overly sweet. Just the right amount of cinnamon and the pastry itself was airy perfection. Needless to say we have now made it an official stop for our bread supply and sweet cravings. It is definitely worth the drive to either St. Phillips on Sunday or the location on Oracle and Magee. After writing this review, I can stop thinking of the magical cinnamon rolls, that I may just have to run over and pick one up to satisfy the craving! This is an extra special treat and not being a fan of many sweets, this place might just convert me.

    It's that time of year again, the time of year I look forward to because of delicious cookies from Village Bakehouse. Every year my office holds a party for our office and clients and we always- I repeat always order from Village Bakehouse. Their cookies encompass this time of year so well. I am only saddened this year because I have found out I have an allergy to a main ingredient of cookies (egg). But if you're looking for cake, cookies, and all things delicious and sweet Village Bakehouse is where it's at! I still patronize but now I'm buying gifts for others- not for me.

    Ordered a 6-inch cake for my mother's 65th birthday. Chocolate with chocolate ganache filling and mocha frosting. It was the first cake we ever ordered from this bakery, but we were very excited because everything we had ever tried from here before was so good. However, we were not particularly pleased. The cake was dry, and the mocha frosting was very, very gritty (though in fairness, it had a great flavor). It was only marginally better than the artificial supermarket cake that costs less than half as much which we were purposely trying to avoid. It wasn't awful... but it wasn't great either... and honestly, we expected MUCH better for the money!

    Hidden...in the corner of a strip mall...a pleasant surprise. I went for brunch and sat in patio. The breakfast/brunch menu is on the smaller side, but the omelette du jour was delicious. I'm not usually a fan of pastries, but these are good quality pastries. With the delicious brunch, a nice view of something besides a strip mall would have been better.

  • Shayla R.

    Horrible set up, as soon as you get there you have to walk through a tight space to get in. Once you get inside the place is crowded, there's no room to look at what you want. I got the chocolate croissant but it was nothing special. The chocolate inside was all clumped together and hard. The croissant itself wasn't buttery or warm at all. Same with the cinnamon rolls.

    I would like to share with my friends the delicious zuchinni soup ordered from this restaurant! It was a little crowded and a rather long wait but when my soup came, I didn't care and understood why it was a little crowded with a long wait! I like a good source for good soup and this is why I am telling you about Village Bakehouse. The prices were very reasonable.

    The absolute worst customer service ever! I had a sleeping baby in my arms as I ordered and asked (knowing the baby would be sleeping in my arms throughout lunch) for them to please chop up the spinach so I could eat with one hand. The counter person made note and said it was fine. The same girl delivered my salad and said "sorry they won't chop up the lettuce!" Why on earth would they not chop up a couple if pieces of spinach for a person unable to eat with both hands who had a valid very small request???? I will NEVER EVER go back! Besides my $9.00 salad of spinach nuts and cheese was a pile of crap! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Drive a block down to beyond bread where there is variety, good food, and great staff!

    We visited Village Bakehouse after reading the reviews and were very happy we did. The place has such a homey feel, but small. We waited a few minutes for a table, but were occupied looking at all the goodies. The breakfast prices are very reasonable, under $5 for many items. Pecan sticky bun was amazing!

  • Patti C.

    I went here with my husband in hopes of a nice meal. It is very small , but that didn't bother us. Problems started first in line while waiting to place our order. The "manager" (a woman not sure of her name ) was very rude to one of the workers there. Talking down to her and as soon as the worker walked away she ( the manager) was rolling her eyes and laughing about it with another worker VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. I ordered the veggie sandwitch ( I am a vegatarian) . When my sandwitch arrived I opened it up and the vegetables had obviously been cooked with meat. In fact there was meat in the sandwitch. When I brought the sandwitch up to the male manager he said " it is breakfast time and we are cooking bacon". When I placed my order it was breakfast time but the cashier told me it was okay to order their veggie sandwitch at that time. The manager said they could try to make another one but he wasn't sure it wouldn't have meat on it! I was in shock! I told him that if he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't be cooked with meat then I wanted my money back which he did give back to me. I will say that the bake goods are yummy , but I will never go back. Between the rude staff (management) not the very polite young man and woman who come a long and clean your tables and the obvious lack of concern about cross contamination, they do not deserve my business.

    I stopped in here after a hair appointment to see what all the buzz was about. While walking into my hair appointment at 11am on a Thursday, I noticed how busy the outside seating was for the time and the day as well as how generally satisfied and happy the patrons were, so I felt completed to check it out for myself. By the time I got out of my appointment, most of the brunchers had left and I ordered the half Harvest Tuna sandwich on Italian for lunch and the cashier insisted I try the passion iced tea. I'd have to say that the combination of fresh tuna salad, tomato, cucumber, sprouts, avocado, red onion & lettuce made it the best Tuna Sandwhich I've ever had. The iced tea however, was not very good and left me wishing I hadn't taken the recommendation and ordered the black iced tea instead. Based on other reviews, I will have to come back for breakfast/brunch!

  • Kyle S.

    This place has been here forever, well, over a decade. So special lady friend came back from her business trip to TX and she was telling about this place she ate at. Which made me think I could do that. So I pulled out my panini press and gave it a once over and then thought, next step bread. The next day we went to lunch at sushi on oracle where special lady friend reminded me we should get some bread. My first thought was Byond Bread is just up the road... then I thought NO lets see what the Village Bakehouse is making these days. I will confess I used to come there in high school because a friend worked there and well you know how that goes. Sadly I must say I kind of stopped going regularly. But they are every bit as good as I remember. I got a mini ciabatta which was big enough for two big sized sandwiches for $1.2 and it was good and paninied up real nice. I think when I need bread and I am on that side of town I will pop in. Also if you buy bread at sprouts, walmart, or trader joes (all with in walking distance) you should be a shamed of yourselves. You are doing your self a great disservice. better tasting, fresher, more varieties, and locally owned... seriously, There is no reason to buy from the other places, spend 5 min to get the good stuff.

  • Elsbeth P.

    One of the BEST hidden breakfast joints in Tucson. We meet here for breakfast rides and seriously, sometimes the anticipation of their iced coffee and wonderful pastry selection are the only things that get me through tough rides. Not only do they have a full breakfast menu (omelettes, breakfast sandwiches, french toast, oatmeal, etc) but they have any kind of pastry you could imagine AND they're a full-service bakery (wedding cakes, etc). Everything is delicious, and I love that you can get fresh fruit as a side (including fresh grapefruit and oranges, yum!) as well as potatoes and you get your choice of 3 or 4 breads to choose from for your toast! Try the banana and nutella-stuffed french toast. It was a special one day and I was too chicken to order it.....so if it's on the menu as a special, try it for me. Please.

    I love this place! They have a nice variety of options for breakfast, as well as baked goods. You place your own order at the counter, take a number and they'll bring your order to your table. We've never experienced anything but great customer service here...and we've eaten here several times. It's a nice place to stop when taking a ride on the bicycle; grab a coffee, a cinnamon roll, or whatever looks good in their baked goods display. It's a nice casual and comfortable setting. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It's nice to have an extra person with you to snag a table because the available tables seem to be a hot commodity :) We'll be back...I'm sure of it!

    Cakes are amazing and worth five stars. But the service is so inconsistent. One day they are friendly and fast. Other days.....well just awful, and I leave swearing never to return. The food is average but the pastries and cakes are great and worth coming back for. On a sad note, the cake baker used to offer good customer service but this last year I noticed she has been rude and moody, even making a client cry with restaurant full of breakfast customers. It is hard to do this review. The bakery products are wonderful, the food good but not special, and the service lacking. Hope the latter improves.

    Great bakery. Good for breakfast. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. Always busy. Casual, friendly atmosphere. When you order a breakfast that comes with toast, you can substitute a pastry,and oh boy, the parties are great.

    WEDDING PIE!!!!!!!! My (now) husband and I decided we wanted to try something a little different for our wedding - PIE!! - At first I was a little nervous (1) What people would think? (2) Would the display be as pretty as the classic tiered cake? Now I can say I'm SO GLAD we went for it! Paulette and team dressed up the tops with little decorative cut-outs (so cute!) and they looked just great. We discovered that arranged right, 25 pies can look even cooler than a tiered wedding cake :) As far as people liking it... we got RAVE reviews, people were running to get in line at the reception for pie. And the pictures just turned out beautiful! The pie that my husband and I cut into for pictures was baked in a stoneware dish (that we dropped off with them ahead of time) so it's now our extra special momento that we'll have for years to come. I'm looking forward to pie on every anniversary!!

    I had seen their cinnamon rolls around, and when I woke up this morning, I knew I had to have one. I just had a buttermilk cinnamon roll and an iced Americano. Apparently, you have the option of getting the cinnamon roll without icing, which is nice, I guess. Seriously though, who would do that? If I want a cinnamon roll, I want it rich, sweet, fattyfatfat, iced, frosted, drizzled, dusted, and any other way you can fit fat and sugar on it. The cinnamon roll didn't disappoint. It tasted like something my grandmother would have made. My dining partner ordered a sandwich, and said that it was very good. The bread was very fresh.

    I'm not sure why this spot hasn't gotten more reviews! This is a great little hidden gem, tucked away in the corner of a shopping center, and frequented by cyclists getting a tasty snack as they finish up their ride. It's been busy every time I've been here, but the service is great! You place your order at the counter then pick out a table and wait for the server to deliver your food; there's seating inside and out. Breakfast is great here, with lots of variety! They also have coffee, lattes, teas, breads, pastries, etc. You've probably driven by this place and not even known it...stop next time and try it out!

    Went just before closing time to pick up a loaf of bread for dinner and grab a quick coffee. While the barrista wasn't too cheery (she'd closed up the coffee portion early) the cashier was pleasant and helpful. The rosemary garlic bread was quite tastey. Wish they were closer. I'd pick up bread from there more often.

    The Village Bakehouse is a warm & friendly neighborhood eatery and bakery. It's always packed at lunchtime and you will have to wait for sandwiches. I recommend scheduling a little time if you go here. There is very limited and cramped seating in the bakery, but a huge patio area making it a great place to go when the weather is cooler. I haven't eaten anything here that I didn't enjoy. One thing I don't like about this place are the aggressive locals. They are pushy and generally very old and territorial. Prepare to be sized up by the other patrons when you arrive ;) Great people watching hot spot. AND right next door to my favorite salon, Trouvaille!

    Smells SO good when you first walk into this cute little bakery! Seating outside, or inside (which get a little crowded). I ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich YUM!! It was so delicious served on a Ciabatta bun. The window of pastries was overwhelming I couldn't pick just one thing to take home- I bought a box of things...Prices were reasonable. I also brought home a loaf of sourdough bread...It was gone the next day! Sliced up and smeared with some butter. Will be back for lunch, pastries & breads!

    I'm honestly surprised more reviews don't exist for this place. It always seems to have a faithful following of clientele hanging around. There is outdoor seating with a sun shade and a small indoor wooden layout that is crowded. Very friendly service. I've only been here a few times, but I've had more than a few of their baked goods over at Avenue Coffee (today turning to Cartel Coffee Campbell actually.) Their low-fat bran muffin is absolutely to die for. There simply are none better. But I've rarely got excited about much else. Their cinnamon rolls are a bit on the dry and stiff side with not enough cinnamon flavor for my desire. The cinnamon scones are good flavor, but the texture is spongey and a bit boring. Their multigrain bread is too smooth of a texture for me. I prefer one that is scattered with actual grains floating around in it. The house coffee isn't horrible, but their espresso is. I ordered an americano, but got an iced latte. But it was clear the espresso just tasted foul anyways. And it took way too long to make besides (only 2 people in front of me and I easily waited 15 minutes). I want to love this place, but in the end I just like it. Perhaps I need to try a few more things out like their pies or sandwiches/salads. They have a lot of cookies too I should delve into. I will definitely keep trying this place until I figure it out.

    Great on a weekday morning, small and gets filled quick but that's not a bad thing. Everything is great and great staff. I might freak out on some biker if I clip myself on one more pedal... get your bikes off the patio! Weekend mornings are a mess with the crowds, take your chances though... worth the wait! Bring back the baked pretzels!!!

    I tried some of "The Bakehouse's" zucchini bread at A.J.'s, and I could almost not stop eating the samples. I am not a big fan of zucchini and usually not of pumpkin/banana/zucchini bread either. But there is something amazing about The Village Bakehouse drinks and sweets. I would definitely recommend their "artisan" drinks. They are usually creative (something like apple pie caramel latte and the like).

    This review concerns the baked goods and not the meal food. In a word, impressive. Went in for baked goods, and in conversing with a helpful employee found out they do custom pies. It helped that I had a craving for one particular kind that is just not available elsewhere. Many bakeries do custom cakes; many fewer do pies as this buisiness does. Yes, when considering what a pie costs at a grocery store, these are expensive. But they are larger, and worth it. When doing a comparison, think about a per slice cost and this is totally reasonable. The pie was great. Yes, so are the cinnamon rolls. A definite recommendation.

    Biggest, best cinnamon rolls and fresh bread. All the breakfast plates are amazing, as well as their sandwiches (try the tortilla soup!). It gets busy on the weekends but totally worth the wait! Don't forget to check the day-old basket for cheap pastries ;)

    It's a very cute little place. They have all kinds of baked goods - bread, pastries, and other yummy looking things. Each time I've been there, there's always people outside and inside that seem very pleasant and satisfied; which makes this place look promising. I've been here a total of three times and each time received not so great service from the staff, my visit today was the worst out of the three. It left me extremely uncomfortable about returning and thus, prompted me to write this review. I hope that management may be able to do something about it because this place seems to offer a lot (wedding cakes, fresh bread etc.) but if you have people that work for you like that it takes away from whether or not their business will do well. I'm still willing to give them another try, but to me, the most important parts of your experience at a restaurant has to do with the service and the quality of food. I hope that the next time I go, it will be a different experience.

    Called Village Bake House to order a cake for a party for recently married friends. Was afraid I was calling at prime-time and they might be too busy, but no, they were totally helpful and took all the time I needed. Really great "champagne" cake with off-white flowers, looked like a perfect little wedding cake and tasted even better. No, they didn't have a couple little grooms to put on the cake for my friends, but had ideas on where I might find what I needed to top the cake. In-store help was friendly and helpful, and the cake was DEE-LISH! (Go for the pastry cream filling -- a major yum.) I had a great experience with this place!

    Yummy baked goods and special order pies and cakes. Pastry and cookies are slightly overpriced compared to Beyond Bread but less expensive than Frog. They serve breakfast & lunch and it's a nice place to enjoy a tea and baked good especially if the weather is nice enough to sit outside.

    I purchased 2 pies and a dozen rolls from the Bakehouse. One pie was not what I ordered, the other, a cherry pie, was so bad it went uneaten. The rolls were no better then what you can get at Frys. We spent $50.00 for nothing. It all went in the garbage.

    Salads are delish, although a bit pricey at $7.75 a pop. I felt the healthful salad eating justified a cookie though, and damn was that money well spent. They do baked goods and coffeehouse drinks, as well as bread-y and salad-y treats very well. Great lunch spot, eat outside on a sunny day!

    Of the places I got try cake in Tucson (since my friends ordered 2 here on 2 different occasions), this place became a favorite ---CHOCOLATE MOUSSE CAKE! we ordered one for our friends bday & it was SO moist and rich yet not too sweet!! Yummmm ---Vanilla cake beautiful with turquoise decor: the Vanilla frosting was a bit sweet but there was a layer of chocolate frosting inside! AGAIN the cake was moist I would totally get another cake for any occasion here!! I hear they do wedding cakes and I wonder if they sell by the slice since i never got to visit the actual shop

  • Hezzy B.

    The fruit tart is my long time favorite and the frosted cookies....soft and delicious! The pies are very good as well as the magic bar's. So, desserts are a definitive YES YES! Here is the tricky part; service is slow moving and at time's the servers get confused with an order. They have recently expanded yet still it is way to crowded. Crowded means they obviously do good business. Bottom line for me.....baked goods worth the wait and occasional correction of wrong order. Food not worth the wait and slow service.

    I'm torn between 3-4 stars... Love the variety of pastries, decent menu too... Food isn't amazing. You look around and it's definitely more of an older crowd. I'd go again, if in the area but wouldn't go out of my way. Staff was really friendly and on top of helping.

    Village Bakehouse is a bakery with a nice homey, local feel. There's a large covered patio and seating inside as well. They have a coffeee bar and breakfast/lunch menu--which I haven't tried anything from yet--but I can say that I have been made into a fan of their desserts and pastries. All taste homemade and made with care. I am not a big fan of key lime or macaroons, but their key lime macaroons are my absolute favorite of their baked treats so far!

    This place is in the same strip mall as Trader Joe's and was packed on a Tuesday for Lunch. It is one of those order and they give you a table number, and deliver the food to you, kind of establishments. They have a small crowded indoor seating area and a spacious covered and uncovered outdoor patio. They have a vast assortment of Paninis, hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soups as well as your standard bakery fare. I recently had lunch out on the patio here with my step mom while visiting them in Tucson. I ordered the soup and half sandwich. I ordered the Village Bakehouse half sandwich which had a generous amount of smoked turkey, with Havarti cheese, avocado, lettuce and tomato. I ordered it without the mayo and asked for mustard. The managed to mix that up but corrected the situation. The half sandwich was a very large portion - seemed more like a whole sandwich. It was good, but the "crusty" baguette was too dense. I had ended up eating mostly just the sandwich fixings without the bread. Since they are a bakery, I would have expected a more true baguette - but that is my personal preference. The tortilla soup was delicious. It had a generous amount of vegetables and tortilla chips and good flavor. The lunch menu seemed like a good value, but as we perused the bakery menu for a cake order, it seemed like they were more priced for weddings than the general public. I did not try them, so I would not know if they were worth the money. I only have the baguette to go by regarding their bakery skills. I just ordered water to go with my sandwich. When I asked for a large cup, unless I wanted a Styrofoam cup, they charged me 25 cents for a plastic cup and lid, which I paid. Kind of quirky, but to each their own. The value on the lunches seemed to be good, and the soup delicious, but the sandwich did not blow me away. While I would eat here again, not sure I would seek them out for lunch. It appears they are open for Breakfast and Lunch. Maybe next time I am at Trader Joe's in Tucson in the morning, I will check out their breakfast.

    The place to go if you're looking for the perfect Strawberry Rhubarb pie, my weakness here- when they have it, I've got to get it. All of their baked goods are hard to pass up and I have had just about everything. I go here occasionally for breakfast, it's nicer in cooler months to eat outside on the patio. Very casual, low key place to eat and enjoy the morning. Never any pressure to "hurry up and get done" which I really appreciate. I like to get coffee and something to eat and just drool over the pastries I can't have :) If you haven't been, it should be on your list. They also have take home cakes and loaves of bread.

    My boyfriend and I went for sandwiches and Iced Caffe Mochas To-Go and his sandwich was only half when we ordered and paid for a whole sandwich. I was so sad cause I was looking forward to this being a go-to spot for us. So we went the next day to try a few pastries and mentioned what happened, the manager gifted us 10 dollars and apologized. The pastries are spot on and their cakes are absolutely super moist. Best Iced Caffe Mocha ever.

    Totally cute place to grab a bite to eat. The outdoor seating is shady enough for outdoor seating, which is great. I used to come here prior to the addition of the outdoor seating just to pick up bread and pastries. The extra seating really makes this place feel like more than just a bakery now. I had the spinach salad ($9) which had super bomb thick cut fatty crunchy Applewood bacon, red onion, shrooms, toasted pecans, raisins and Gorgonzola. The balsamic honey and thyme dressing was really nice as well- not overly syrupy and sweet. There were far too many red onions on the salad for my taste, but no big deal because they were easy to pull off since they weren't mixed in. The staff clearing the tables were super friendly- we had an elderly gentlemen who was chatty and funny with us. haha "Help yourself to more free water.." Sweet guy.

    Always great food. They serve many varieties of food and all the pastry goodness you can handle. It's a full bakery so they always have cool stuff. The fresh bread is amazing. I enjoy their sandwiches, the reuben is my favorite. I always get an Italian cream soda with a double shot. The portions are just right, I order a half sandwich so I have room for dessert, because hey that's REALLY why I go there. Recently the outside patio was upgraded with an awning and heaters. Just in time for the cool weather. No reason not to sit outside this time of year.

    Delicious carrot cake!! Called the night before to order a birthday carrot cake and they were very nice to take my order and make sure they understood the time I needed to pick it up. They did a fantastic job with the decoration, a bike, and the cake was just full of flavor not too sweet but not bland either, just the perfect balance of deliciousness.

    If you are on a diet, this place is certainly your doom. The pastries are just amazing, this is honestly the first scone I've ever eaten that I actually enjoyed, and do not get me started on the eclairs. The food is actually very good as well, the potatos are amazing, as well as the toast they give as part of most breakfast sets. They also have high chairs for the little ones and great coffee.

    Went in to try their cinnamon rolls because of the reviews. They are HUGE. I have an average sized hand and if I spread my fingers and draw a circle around them and below my wrist, the roll would be a tad smaller. And reasonably priced, too, about $2.50! They were fluffy. Not gooey, though, but nice and fluffy. I liked the copious amounts of icing, too. My wife thought the icing could be better. When pressed for specifics, she couldn't give me any, so I can't give you any, either. But I found nothing wrong with it. I do like my cinnamon rolls gooey, though and this fell short in that category. But a great cinnamon roll, regardless. The place this Saturday morning was packed, with the parking lot at this strip mall filled immediately in front of it. There are 12 or so tables inside and around 20-ish tables outside. People with food were happy and happily chowing down. I looked at their menu and looked at their two Saturday specials and wished that I was here for breakfast, so I will have to return with my wife some morning.

    If your looking for fancy? This is not your place. But if you are looking for grandma's old fashion pie, you are at the right place. The smell of pies draws you into the bakery. You see BIG pies by the counter, fresh bread with olives baked and flaky buttery croissants as you walk in.

    We saw Village Bakeshop's reviews on Yelp so we thought we'd try it out. Awesome breakfast for a decent price. We both had an omelet fluffy and loved it. And we splurged on something sweet - chocolate croissant & pecan sticky bun. Best ever. Staff was friendly & helpful. You place the order at the counter & they bring your food. We sat outside on the patio and really enjoyed it. Will return when in the area.

    In the mood for a pastry this morning so I had to stop by. The selection of baked goods is varied and delicious! I ordered the baked cherry fritter and an iced cappuccino. I have to say, it was way better than Starbucks (and better priced). I came here a few months ago and tried the heart healthy orange cookies and the Linzer cookies, they did not disappoint. Everything is fresh, the staff is nice and I prefer to frequent local establishments.

    This review is for the baked goods; we did not try their sandwiches. Village Bakehouse is a destination bakery for their sweets. The bread we tried was no better than supermarket quality, but who cares -- we had a couple of desserts, each of which was excellent. I hesitate to recommend any one thing because everyone has their favorites -- squares, pastries, cupcakes, whole cakes, twists, macarons, etc., etc. I bet they are all good.

    THE. BEST. WEDDING CAKE. EVAR. I normally prefer indulgences of the salty and crunchy variety - my wedding cake was pretty low on my list of priorities...until I tried samples at the Village Bakehouse. From their offerings my husband and I pieced together a bare chocolate cake with a chocolate ganache frosting with fresh raspberries between the layers. Holy mother of God, it was not only the greatest wedding cake I've ever eaten, but the best cake I've ever eaten. The top of the cake did not survive the drive home to Los Angeles (our home until recent). Not only that, the presentation of the cake was exquisite, and Paulette is a doll. Definitely check this establishment out if you're in the market for wedding cake...or just cake.

    Know going in, this is a strip mall order at a counter restaurant. That being said, very interesting sandwich selection. We had one panini, one cranberry bread with cream cheese, avocado, sprouts(fabulous), and a grilled chicken sandwich, and a fruit tart. Only complaint is the chicken breast was minuscule, soooo small. As others have noted, they are a bit unorganized, which slows them down a bit, otherwise, beautiful yummy food and baked goods.

    Loved this place! Went on a Saturday morning and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Ordered pancakes, ham/cheese/egg croissant, and stuffed French toast. All where yummy! The croissant wS simple but very tasty and I prefer their breads to other places. Took a cinnamon type roll home, it has nuts and frosting or something different on it. It was so good! Clean, smells good, and staff is friendly.

    This place is a good American breakfast spot. It was really A-OK! I had the basic breakfast, scrambled eggs, home fries, and toast. The eggs were really pretty good. The potatoes were great - Red not Yukons - the way to go. The toast was really good too - not too much butter and good sourdough. And, you can't beat the price. My main complaints seem pretty fixable and are likely due to the new format of the place. #1 - Put up an "Order Here" sign at the far order counter...confusing since there are two counters. #2 - Put down (tape on the ground) or put up (a rope system) for which way the line is supposed to curl around the small seating space - so customers don't have to be the one instructing new comers. #3 - Figure out a better way to figure out which tables have which numbers - perhaps instruct people to leave the number at the edge of the table...or simply call the number out... it's frustrating to see your breakfast pass you by and go outside and all around all the tables...only to have it come back to the beginning where you were sitting all along...own it...calling out table numbers is fun! #4 - Put jam on the tables...(maybe even make your own!) You all seem to have some good customer love and wishing you all the best of luck and many successful years.

    My partner and I visited Village Bakehouse with the intention to study. We arrived, and while the outdoor seating is spacious, it was chilly out, so we elected to sit inside. The inside was very crowded and cramped. We found an open table against the wall and put our things down before perusing the beautiful pastries. I got an almond croissant and a coffee and my partner got an egg and cheese croissant and a coffee as well. The food and coffee were very good. Be careful, though, because the coffee seemed very hot. There were so many delicious looking pastries to choose from that I will definitely go back to try. In the end, we didn't end up studying there. We ate and left. It wasn't really a studying kind of place.

    Being new to Tucson, I went here to order a cake for my daughter's 1st birthday on account of the good Yelp reviews. I brought in a picture of a cake I found on Pinterest, asked them to scale it down a bit, add her name and use buttercream instead of fondant (because who really likes fondant?). The price they quoted me was half of what I was prepared to pay, so I was cautiously optimistic the cake would be all I wanted it to be, especially with all my instructions. But when I went to pick it up, my eyes seriously welled up with tears. It was SO PERFECT, I can't even. Exactly as I had imagined it. I also had them make a little smash cake to match the big cake which was ridiculously precious as well. The buttercream looked like fondant -- it was that expertly done. Everyone at the party raved about the cake -- not only how cute it was but how it tasted. If you like soft, chocolatey cake goodness with sugary buttercream (emphasis on butter), you will love their cakes. This is definitely my go-to bakery from now on.

  • Sophia B.

    Oh, this place has potential. The baked goods are delicious, the service is not excellent, and the business owners don't seem interested in improving what they are providing. After confusion about who to give my order to, I reached the register. I told the young man at the register that I would like whichever of the soups was vegetarian. He rang me up. When my food was delivered at the table, I specifically asked if the soup was vegetarian. Two women who delivered the food said it was. It was not. They served a vegetarian chicken soup even after being specifically asked about it. I sent the soup back, and then had my meal interrupted an additional 2-3 times by their employees. Because their mistake necessitates them interrupting my meal to unpleasantly pseudo-apologize. Some excuses given: "We have a lot of new girls working here." (I gave my order to a man.) (Also, you told me the soup was vegetarian when you delivered it) "We ran out of the soup so we substituted another." At this point I replied that I would have understood it if the cashier had told me that they were out of the vegetarian soup. I understand mistakes happen in food service, but the buck needs to stop somewhere. It's not okay to serve people food they have been specifically asked not to. I would not recommend trusting this restaurant with a food allergy or sensitivity problem. I hope this bakery can step up to the plate.

    During a recent visit to Tucson this place was highly recommended. I was at the end of a long business and pleasure weekend. I was in the mood for a great cup of coffee and some non-supermarket tasty baked pastry or cake. The Village Bakehouse was not far off my route back to the highway. Was I in for a surprise! Was this so-called bakery and coffee house that did not serve milk as a condiment for coffee or tea real? This is one of the first times I asked for my money back. I did it for two reasons. The first is obvious. The second one is at the cashier waitress had no idea what I was talking about and I actually lied a little telling me that they did have milk. What I didn't want was the watered down stuff. I wanted regular milk. Some call it whole milk. Others seem to have coined the phrase of vitamin D milk. They just didn't have it. Amazing! It really ruined my stop. No, that's not all. The so-called bakery had a nice aroma to it. I spotted a cinnamon stick and ordered it. Sure, it smelled great. But would you enjoy the nibbling on a cinnamon flavored piece of wood? I don't think so. What they served seemed like it was in the case for two weeks and dried out. Oh...what a horrible experience this place was for me. Avoid it, at least for coffee and cake. Am I glad there was a Dunkin' Donuts not far away.

    Amazing bakery and very reasonably priced!!! We first used them for my fiance's brother's rehearsal dinner. I was in charge of the dessert table so we ordered lemon bars, brownies and two 8inch round cakes with designs on them. Village bakehouse was so easy to work with. Everyone at the party raved about how great the cakes were. Fast forward a few months my fiance asked the head baker if they could make a vanilla rose water cake. My family is from Jamaica and we use a lot of rosewater in our desserts. They had never done this before but were willing to try. My fiance took over the rosewater he wanted to be used and left it in their hands. I was so surprised at how delicious it was. I think I must have had close to 10 pieces of cake that weekend. It was sooo delicious and extremely moist. The icing was vanilla buttercream and was to die for. Thank you Village Bakehouse

    What a sweet place! We stopped by to check out the pumpkin bars and pumpkin spice muffins we'd read about in the newspaper (and they did NOT disappoint) and stayed for lunch. The salads, veggie sandwich, and turkey sandwich were very tasty. The many artisan breads and wide selection of sweet delights (including wedding cakes to order) will keep me coming back. That's for sure. Right now they have lots of pumpkin and apple goodies to celebrate the season. Another great reason to visit them again soon.

    This was my first and last time visiting this place. Very small and cramped. We placed our order and picked a spot to sit. 20 minutes later we were still waiting for our 1.5 sandwiches and 1 salad. We asked one of the women about it, she said it would be out shortly. 30 mins after we placed our order that same woman came by again and said it would be out soon. We politely reminded her it had been 30 mins and her reply was "I know that's why I went back to check on it". I was flabbergasted by how rude she was. Come to find out, our order had NEVER BEEN SENT TO THE KITCHEN! So her telling us it was coming soon was a flat out lie. Needless to say we got a refund and were offered some pastries. We needed a meal not a pastry. Very disappointed in the service here. Especially since I was scouting this place as a potential bakery for my wedding. I can cross it off the list!

  • Erica E.

    We were referred here by multiple happy customers who raved about their cakes! Since I am planning my wedding, I booked a cake tasting with Paulette. She was awesome! Very easy going, yet gave us her honest opinion. And their cake selections are to break any diet plan for! Dense, moist cake with fresh frosting. I have been here a few times before for breakfast and I literally drool over their fresh pastry selection. Its hard to ever get just ONE sweet thing while you are there. The only downfall is it can get very busy and somewhat hectic in the small store. They have extended their patio which makes up for the lack of space inside. This bakery is worth the time and money, especially if you are in need of a yummy cake!

    We were excited to get a treat here however we were met with rude service behind the counter! It was like a burden to ring up or items. The guy just walked away and forgot to give me a coffee cup or tell me where to get the coffee, which was empty anyway! We ordered a can of sprite and I was told "At the corner" as though I knew what that meant! Took 10 min. to get a can of sprite! I ordered a black and white cookie, which coming from NYC, I was so excited to see. It was awful! I didn't even finish it! :( overall bad visit and won't be back!

    Have been n Tucson for about 20+ years, never been here before today. Ordered the Grilled Turkey and Brie, it was fantastic.The bread (garlic-thyme) was great and the turkey and brie went together well. Also Had a cup of Soup de Jour (Cheddar-Potato-Bacon, I believe), soup was decent. My 3 other family members got an omelette, breakfast burrito and a Sassy Sally grilled chicken sandwich, all 3 liked their food. Only took about 12-15 minutes, everything was hot and delicious (employee brings food to your table, with necessary silverware and napkins.) They have a great selection of hot teas and coffees, I got tea (and was pleasantly surprised when they had Crockett's Honey, an Arizona brand). I was pleased with lunch so my brother and I decided to order some pastries. Got a Heart Health orange cookie, blueberry-cheese danish, cinnamon coffee cake, and a Pecan Sticky bun. Pricing was a tad on pricey side, but pretty much what you'd expect in Oro Valley. Overall pastry quality was excellent. It all seems to be freshly made and delicious.

    My coworkers and i LOVED this place, we came here at LEAST 3 times a week for the past 5 years and there are 6 of us. This last Saturday, we had a very very terrible experience with the owner, Paulette. It was our first time ever encountering her and it was so horrible, we will never return. Customers should never have to experience being treated or talked to the way she did to us. She also really mistreated a great employee in front of us, other customers, and his peers. This is a huge bummer because we loved this place so much. We recommended it to all our customers, but now we fear they will be treated the same way. I just can not believe that she was the owner, so unprofessional.

    Tried the bakehouse today for something new. The pastries looked amazing but we went for lunch. I was torn between the Best of the Southwest Salad and the hot Zucchini sandwich. I went with the latter and was wishing I had ordered the salad. I asked for brie and multigrain brea instead of feta on a french roll. It came out dripping oil from the sautéed veggies. I think it was called a grilled sandwich but between the butter on the bread and the oil dripping off the veggies I almost had to eat the sandwich with a knife and fork. The flavors were good but the brie was almost non existent. I think with less oil this would be a great sandwich. My sister ordered the greek salad and said it was one of the best she's had. I tasted the dressing and it was very good. More lemony than most greek dressings. My nephews grilled cheese sandwich was tasty as were the cookies we chose for the kids. As far as service...all the people crammed behind the counter, not one seemed to know their place. There wasn't much direction from a manager if there even is one. There are 2 registers with people at both but then a girl in the middle answering the phone talking over everyone else. It was hard to know where to go and who I was supposed to give my order to. The kid who took my order might have been new or might just not have a clue bc for instance I had to come back and ask if they bring my drink or I need to get a cup. Someone else told me I needed to grab it from the end of the counter. We overheard him telling an older couple outside that if they wanted their drinks they needed to go inside to get them. As a former waitress, we thought he should've said they get them inside for future reference but that he'd be glad to go grab them. Also I took our plates inside when we were finished and there wasn't any place to put them bc everyone else also just stacked their used dishes on the counter--lack of bussing. I do think we will be back though to eat more salads. The patio is also nice.

    This place serves American style breakfast. Do not expect patisserie here. Their cinnamon roles are very large and covered in icing. It's a sugar coma waiting to happen. The cheese/cherry danish was quite good. The coffee was mediocre and took a while to prepare. Avoid during rush breakfast hours on the weekend.

    I was tipped of by the cashier at Sprouts that the best cinnamon rolls in town were right across the street. This was no lie. I have had cookies,cupcakes, pies, sandwiches and soups...everything being exceptional. Since I am always on the look out for vegetarian food options, the have great grilled veggie sandwiches and hummus wraps. I think despite the super great pastries, it's there soups which is really WOW amazing. The hard part is, choosing to have soup and sandwiches rather than just have pastries for lunch. They are open for lunch until 6pm, so if you are in a soup and sandwich mood please check it out. They also sell fresh baked breads and rolls. So this place has a whole lot going on. My only complaint is they don't have is much space to dine. There are 20 tables, more than half outside, so you are eating outside of a huge strip mall on the sidewalk watching people fighting traffic in the parking lot (not the best way to enjoy good food). If you do eat inside, you typically have patrons looking over the pastry cases ordering or standing in line to order standing 2-3 feet from you, while eating at any given table inside.

    This is my first review on Yelp. I felt that I needed to set it straight. This place is amazing! The service was outstanding! The atmosphere was so mellow. I was wanting to try a bakery in Tucson so read many reviews. I truly do not understand any of the past negative reviewers. You will love this place! Great sandwiches...amazing desserts....just fantastic.

    I love this place for breakfast!!! I typically do a build your own omelet with spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms and swiss. The portions are huge, and the prices are great for the amount of food you get. Their pastries are also incredible. The blueberry danish is my favorite. The food is always fresh and beautiful and our order has never been wrong, despite how busy they are. The service is also great. The older gentleman who works there is always very sweet and conversational with us. I will be having all of my special occasion cakes made here. The only downside is how small it is, so you want to try to beat the crowds or try to get outside seating on the covered patio. That won't stop us from going frequently, though.

    Quality has gone downhill. I got my husband the breakfast burrito and he asked me, with all sincerity, if it was from the taco bell breakfast menu. It was also very expensive. One burrito, one piece of zucchini bread, and two plain coffees ended up being $18.

    After hearing about Village Bakehouse time and again from trusted sources, I finally made the trip. Why did I wait so long?! We headed out on a weekday morning for a ladies breakfast. The place was hoping at 10 am on a Tuesday. Interesting. So we put in our order at the counter, ring us up, grab a seat outside. We enjoy a little bit of the fabulous Tucson weather and do some people watching before our food comes out. WOW! I'm sure everyone knows about the zucchini bread, but everything else was just as wonderful! Baked goods, obviously, but eggs to fruit, everything was top notch. Great value, super food, good service and location!

    I have eaten here multiple times over the past few years and I have to admit, I'm a decent fan. Their pastries are to die for! I'm a huge fan of their cinnamon rolls in particular. (Pro-tip; Have them heat them up for you. You won't be sorry!). The people who work there have worked there for years and know what they're doing. The only reason I chopped this place down was because of their sandwiches. Theyre tasty, but for the same price I feel I could get something a little heartier at schlomos(or a number of other places). The Village Bakehouse is definitely a go-to for a good fix. Like I said, their pastries are delicious and habit-forming. There are definitely worse things you could be addicted to!

    We've eaten breakfast here twice in the past week; it's that good!! The home-made bread, pasteries, and breakfasts are all "excellent". This was a real find and we just stumbled on it looking for a place for breakfast one morning--but checked Yelp first. You won't be disappointed with anything that the Bakehouse turns out. The restaurant itself (inside) is a bit cramped, but there's plenty of seating outside. Service is "good." I have a feeling this will be a "regular" for us.

    This is the best pastry shop I have found in Tucson to date. My father loves the chocolate eclairs, I love the almond croissants and the coffees. My main complaint is how small this place is. So many people go here, because it is really that good! It would also be awesome if they made french macarons. I am so happy this place is not that far from my home. If you enjoy almond, go for the croissants and bear claws. YUM!

    They have the BEST cinnamon rolls. My mom and I used to go here for breakfast all the time when I was in high school and I still consider this to be one of the best bakeries in town. Their sourdough and ciabatta is amazing as well as the asiago black pepper bread! Also, whenever I get breakfast, I order a side of bacon, because it MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH. I do love some of the other bakeries in town but NO ONE has better cinnamon rolls...NO ONE.

    Cakes are amazing and worth five stars. But the service is so inconsistent. One day they are friendly and fast. Other days.....well just awful, and I leave swearing never to return. The food is average but the pastries and cakes are great and worth coming back for. On a sad note, the cake baker used to offer good customer service but this last year I noticed she has been rude and moody, even making a client cry with restaurant full of breakfast customers. It is hard to do this review. The bakery products are wonderful, the food good but not special, and the service lacking. Hope the latter improves.

    Note: This review is of their wedding cake only and based off experiences in April 2010. Amazing. Wouldn't change anything about our experience or the products they provided. We met with many bakeries and Paulette with Village Bakehouse blew us away. We had been considering tarts instead of cake and Paulette was the only bakery to provide a sample. Also, the design we wanted for the cake was made out to be a very difficult design by others and we had been told it would likely need to be done in fondant - which, if at all possible, we did not want. During our tasting, Paulette whipped up a sample in a flash and it was exactly what we wanted. My husband's parents decided to order him a groom's cake - a VW mini bus. It could have turned out goofy, or awesome, and it was definitely the latter. It was adorable. People cracked up over it. Not only did our cake(s) turn out unbelievably gorgeous, it tasted amazing too! We got pink champagne with Italian butter cream, sour cream chocolate with chocolate ganache, carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, and autumn spice with classic buttercream. The cake could have been made in only three tiers, but we couldn't decide on just three flavors (all so good), so Paulette made it in four (still the same amount of cake) and it was the perfect size. Paulette really made the experience for us - so talented, sweet and responsive. I would recommend the Village Bakehouse to any bride.

    Have been here several times but haven't yet yelped about it. Nonetheless I love it. Great pastries, cookies, cakes, all things that wreak havoc on your insulin levels. I've honestly only done breakfast but assume the other things are good as well. Staff is friendly, Paulette is amazing, and the coffee ain't too shabby. Prices are totally reasonable. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't yet!

    We always buy our birthday cakes here and it is 100% the best cakes in town! Never disappointing! The cakes are beautiful and taste better than they look.

    I would like to share with my friends the delicious zuchinni soup ordered from this restaurant! It was a little crowded and a rather long wait but when my soup came, I didn't care and understood why it was a little crowded with a long wait! I like a good source for good soup and this is why I am telling you about Village Bakehouse. The prices were very reasonable.

    I stumbled upon the stand VBH has at the St. Phillip's Farmer's Market on Sunday. I purchased some olive oil and pepper bread and was hooked. I visited the location when visiting a shop nearby. They have plenty of indoor and patio seating, the service is fast and you can't beat the array of pastries and fresh breads (or the smell of fresh baked bread that fills the parking lot). I ordered some Jalapeno Cheese bread and it was great. I also had a cinnamon roll and was in heaven. The frosting was not to heavy and definitely not overly sweet. Just the right amount of cinnamon and the pastry itself was airy perfection. Needless to say we have now made it an official stop for our bread supply and sweet cravings. It is definitely worth the drive to either St. Phillips on Sunday or the location on Oracle and Magee. After writing this review, I can stop thinking of the magical cinnamon rolls, that I may just have to run over and pick one up to satisfy the craving! This is an extra special treat and not being a fan of many sweets, this place might just convert me.

    It's that time of year again, the time of year I look forward to because of delicious cookies from Village Bakehouse. Every year my office holds a party for our office and clients and we always- I repeat always order from Village Bakehouse. Their cookies encompass this time of year so well. I am only saddened this year because I have found out I have an allergy to a main ingredient of cookies (egg). But if you're looking for cake, cookies, and all things delicious and sweet Village Bakehouse is where it's at! I still patronize but now I'm buying gifts for others- not for me.

    Ordered a 6-inch cake for my mother's 65th birthday. Chocolate with chocolate ganache filling and mocha frosting. It was the first cake we ever ordered from this bakery, but we were very excited because everything we had ever tried from here before was so good. However, we were not particularly pleased. The cake was dry, and the mocha frosting was very, very gritty (though in fairness, it had a great flavor). It was only marginally better than the artificial supermarket cake that costs less than half as much which we were purposely trying to avoid. It wasn't awful... but it wasn't great either... and honestly, we expected MUCH better for the money!

    Hidden...in the corner of a strip mall...a pleasant surprise. I went for brunch and sat in patio. The breakfast/brunch menu is on the smaller side, but the omelette du jour was delicious. I'm not usually a fan of pastries, but these are good quality pastries. With the delicious brunch, a nice view of something besides a strip mall would have been better.

    Horrible set up, as soon as you get there you have to walk through a tight space to get in. Once you get inside the place is crowded, there's no room to look at what you want. I got the chocolate croissant but it was nothing special. The chocolate inside was all clumped together and hard. The croissant itself wasn't buttery or warm at all. Same with the cinnamon rolls.

    The absolute worst customer service ever! I had a sleeping baby in my arms as I ordered and asked (knowing the baby would be sleeping in my arms throughout lunch) for them to please chop up the spinach so I could eat with one hand. The counter person made note and said it was fine. The same girl delivered my salad and said "sorry they won't chop up the lettuce!" Why on earth would they not chop up a couple if pieces of spinach for a person unable to eat with both hands who had a valid very small request???? I will NEVER EVER go back! Besides my $9.00 salad of spinach nuts and cheese was a pile of crap! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Drive a block down to beyond bread where there is variety, good food, and great staff!

    We visited Village Bakehouse after reading the reviews and were very happy we did. The place has such a homey feel, but small. We waited a few minutes for a table, but were occupied looking at all the goodies. The breakfast prices are very reasonable, under $5 for many items. Pecan sticky bun was amazing!

  • Patti C.

    I went here with my husband in hopes of a nice meal. It is very small , but that didn't bother us. Problems started first in line while waiting to place our order. The "manager" (a woman not sure of her name ) was very rude to one of the workers there. Talking down to her and as soon as the worker walked away she ( the manager) was rolling her eyes and laughing about it with another worker VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. I ordered the veggie sandwitch ( I am a vegatarian) . When my sandwitch arrived I opened it up and the vegetables had obviously been cooked with meat. In fact there was meat in the sandwitch. When I brought the sandwitch up to the male manager he said " it is breakfast time and we are cooking bacon". When I placed my order it was breakfast time but the cashier told me it was okay to order their veggie sandwitch at that time. The manager said they could try to make another one but he wasn't sure it wouldn't have meat on it! I was in shock! I told him that if he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't be cooked with meat then I wanted my money back which he did give back to me. I will say that the bake goods are yummy , but I will never go back. Between the rude staff (management) not the very polite young man and woman who come a long and clean your tables and the obvious lack of concern about cross contamination, they do not deserve my business.

    I stopped in here after a hair appointment to see what all the buzz was about. While walking into my hair appointment at 11am on a Thursday, I noticed how busy the outside seating was for the time and the day as well as how generally satisfied and happy the patrons were, so I felt completed to check it out for myself. By the time I got out of my appointment, most of the brunchers had left and I ordered the half Harvest Tuna sandwich on Italian for lunch and the cashier insisted I try the passion iced tea. I'd have to say that the combination of fresh tuna salad, tomato, cucumber, sprouts, avocado, red onion & lettuce made it the best Tuna Sandwhich I've ever had. The iced tea however, was not very good and left me wishing I hadn't taken the recommendation and ordered the black iced tea instead. Based on other reviews, I will have to come back for breakfast/brunch!

    This place has been here forever, well, over a decade. So special lady friend came back from her business trip to TX and she was telling about this place she ate at. Which made me think I could do that. So I pulled out my panini press and gave it a once over and then thought, next step bread. The next day we went to lunch at sushi on oracle where special lady friend reminded me we should get some bread. My first thought was Byond Bread is just up the road... then I thought NO lets see what the Village Bakehouse is making these days. I will confess I used to come there in high school because a friend worked there and well you know how that goes. Sadly I must say I kind of stopped going regularly. But they are every bit as good as I remember. I got a mini ciabatta which was big enough for two big sized sandwiches for $1.2 and it was good and paninied up real nice. I think when I need bread and I am on that side of town I will pop in. Also if you buy bread at sprouts, walmart, or trader joes (all with in walking distance) you should be a shamed of yourselves. You are doing your self a great disservice. better tasting, fresher, more varieties, and locally owned... seriously, There is no reason to buy from the other places, spend 5 min to get the good stuff.

    One of the BEST hidden breakfast joints in Tucson. We meet here for breakfast rides and seriously, sometimes the anticipation of their iced coffee and wonderful pastry selection are the only things that get me through tough rides. Not only do they have a full breakfast menu (omelettes, breakfast sandwiches, french toast, oatmeal, etc) but they have any kind of pastry you could imagine AND they're a full-service bakery (wedding cakes, etc). Everything is delicious, and I love that you can get fresh fruit as a side (including fresh grapefruit and oranges, yum!) as well as potatoes and you get your choice of 3 or 4 breads to choose from for your toast! Try the banana and nutella-stuffed french toast. It was a special one day and I was too chicken to order it.....so if it's on the menu as a special, try it for me. Please.

    I love this place! They have a nice variety of options for breakfast, as well as baked goods. You place your own order at the counter, take a number and they'll bring your order to your table. We've never experienced anything but great customer service here...and we've eaten here several times. It's a nice place to stop when taking a ride on the bicycle; grab a coffee, a cinnamon roll, or whatever looks good in their baked goods display. It's a nice casual and comfortable setting. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It's nice to have an extra person with you to snag a table because the available tables seem to be a hot commodity :) We'll be back...I'm sure of it!

    WEDDING PIE!!!!!!!! My (now) husband and I decided we wanted to try something a little different for our wedding - PIE!! - At first I was a little nervous (1) What people would think? (2) Would the display be as pretty as the classic tiered cake? Now I can say I'm SO GLAD we went for it! Paulette and team dressed up the tops with little decorative cut-outs (so cute!) and they looked just great. We discovered that arranged right, 25 pies can look even cooler than a tiered wedding cake :) As far as people liking it... we got RAVE reviews, people were running to get in line at the reception for pie. And the pictures just turned out beautiful! The pie that my husband and I cut into for pictures was baked in a stoneware dish (that we dropped off with them ahead of time) so it's now our extra special momento that we'll have for years to come. I'm looking forward to pie on every anniversary!!

    I had seen their cinnamon rolls around, and when I woke up this morning, I knew I had to have one. I just had a buttermilk cinnamon roll and an iced Americano. Apparently, you have the option of getting the cinnamon roll without icing, which is nice, I guess. Seriously though, who would do that? If I want a cinnamon roll, I want it rich, sweet, fattyfatfat, iced, frosted, drizzled, dusted, and any other way you can fit fat and sugar on it. The cinnamon roll didn't disappoint. It tasted like something my grandmother would have made. My dining partner ordered a sandwich, and said that it was very good. The bread was very fresh.

    I'm not sure why this spot hasn't gotten more reviews! This is a great little hidden gem, tucked away in the corner of a shopping center, and frequented by cyclists getting a tasty snack as they finish up their ride. It's been busy every time I've been here, but the service is great! You place your order at the counter then pick out a table and wait for the server to deliver your food; there's seating inside and out. Breakfast is great here, with lots of variety! They also have coffee, lattes, teas, breads, pastries, etc. You've probably driven by this place and not even known it...stop next time and try it out!

    Went just before closing time to pick up a loaf of bread for dinner and grab a quick coffee. While the barrista wasn't too cheery (she'd closed up the coffee portion early) the cashier was pleasant and helpful. The rosemary garlic bread was quite tastey. Wish they were closer. I'd pick up bread from there more often.

    The Village Bakehouse is a warm & friendly neighborhood eatery and bakery. It's always packed at lunchtime and you will have to wait for sandwiches. I recommend scheduling a little time if you go here. There is very limited and cramped seating in the bakery, but a huge patio area making it a great place to go when the weather is cooler. I haven't eaten anything here that I didn't enjoy. One thing I don't like about this place are the aggressive locals. They are pushy and generally very old and territorial. Prepare to be sized up by the other patrons when you arrive ;) Great people watching hot spot. AND right next door to my favorite salon, Trouvaille!

  • Ed G.

    I'm honestly surprised more reviews don't exist for this place. It always seems to have a faithful following of clientele hanging around. There is outdoor seating with a sun shade and a small indoor wooden layout that is crowded. Very friendly service. I've only been here a few times, but I've had more than a few of their baked goods over at Avenue Coffee (today turning to Cartel Coffee Campbell actually.) Their low-fat bran muffin is absolutely to die for. There simply are none better. But I've rarely got excited about much else. Their cinnamon rolls are a bit on the dry and stiff side with not enough cinnamon flavor for my desire. The cinnamon scones are good flavor, but the texture is spongey and a bit boring. Their multigrain bread is too smooth of a texture for me. I prefer one that is scattered with actual grains floating around in it. The house coffee isn't horrible, but their espresso is. I ordered an americano, but got an iced latte. But it was clear the espresso just tasted foul anyways. And it took way too long to make besides (only 2 people in front of me and I easily waited 15 minutes). I want to love this place, but in the end I just like it. Perhaps I need to try a few more things out like their pies or sandwiches/salads. They have a lot of cookies too I should delve into. I will definitely keep trying this place until I figure it out.

    Great on a weekday morning, small and gets filled quick but that's not a bad thing. Everything is great and great staff. I might freak out on some biker if I clip myself on one more pedal... get your bikes off the patio! Weekend mornings are a mess with the crowds, take your chances though... worth the wait! Bring back the baked pretzels!!!

    I tried some of "The Bakehouse's" zucchini bread at A.J.'s, and I could almost not stop eating the samples. I am not a big fan of zucchini and usually not of pumpkin/banana/zucchini bread either. But there is something amazing about The Village Bakehouse drinks and sweets. I would definitely recommend their "artisan" drinks. They are usually creative (something like apple pie caramel latte and the like).

  • Mr P.

    This review concerns the baked goods and not the meal food. In a word, impressive. Went in for baked goods, and in conversing with a helpful employee found out they do custom pies. It helped that I had a craving for one particular kind that is just not available elsewhere. Many bakeries do custom cakes; many fewer do pies as this buisiness does. Yes, when considering what a pie costs at a grocery store, these are expensive. But they are larger, and worth it. When doing a comparison, think about a per slice cost and this is totally reasonable. The pie was great. Yes, so are the cinnamon rolls. A definite recommendation.

    It's a very cute little place. They have all kinds of baked goods - bread, pastries, and other yummy looking things. Each time I've been there, there's always people outside and inside that seem very pleasant and satisfied; which makes this place look promising. I've been here a total of three times and each time received not so great service from the staff, my visit today was the worst out of the three. It left me extremely uncomfortable about returning and thus, prompted me to write this review. I hope that management may be able to do something about it because this place seems to offer a lot (wedding cakes, fresh bread etc.) but if you have people that work for you like that it takes away from whether or not their business will do well. I'm still willing to give them another try, but to me, the most important parts of your experience at a restaurant has to do with the service and the quality of food. I hope that the next time I go, it will be a different experience.

    Called Village Bake House to order a cake for a party for recently married friends. Was afraid I was calling at prime-time and they might be too busy, but no, they were totally helpful and took all the time I needed. Really great "champagne" cake with off-white flowers, looked like a perfect little wedding cake and tasted even better. No, they didn't have a couple little grooms to put on the cake for my friends, but had ideas on where I might find what I needed to top the cake. In-store help was friendly and helpful, and the cake was DEE-LISH! (Go for the pastry cream filling -- a major yum.) I had a great experience with this place!

    I purchased 2 pies and a dozen rolls from the Bakehouse. One pie was not what I ordered, the other, a cherry pie, was so bad it went uneaten. The rolls were no better then what you can get at Frys. We spent $50.00 for nothing. It all went in the garbage.

    I've only had one thing here...the frosted buttermilk cinnamon rolls. They are to die for so I have yet to try anything else...maybe someday!

    Wonderful baked goods, sandwiches, salads, and breakfast. Everything is always fresh. Its a popular place and seating can sometimes be a pain.

    Smells SO good when you first walk into this cute little bakery! Seating outside, or inside (which get a little crowded). I ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich YUM!! It was so delicious served on a Ciabatta bun. The window of pastries was overwhelming I couldn't pick just one thing to take home- I bought a box of things...Prices were reasonable. I also brought home a loaf of sourdough bread...It was gone the next day! Sliced up and smeared with some butter. Will be back for lunch, pastries & breads!

    Salads are delish, although a bit pricey at $7.75 a pop. I felt the healthful salad eating justified a cookie though, and damn was that money well spent. They do baked goods and coffeehouse drinks, as well as bread-y and salad-y treats very well. Great lunch spot, eat outside on a sunny day!
