Two lovely Seattle bakeries to visit this weekend

Spread the love

Sometimes it feels like there’s a bakery void in the Magnolia/Interbay area of Seattle and when you map out a day’s adventures based on coffee shops and pastries like I do, this creates a little bit of a problem.

Thankfully the Fuji Bakery finally opened on Friday and it’s right in the heart of Interbay.

We checked out the tables.  ( I love that this one has a couple big benches where you can actually sit and enjoy.)

But this time we grabbed a bag full of pastries for the road.

Our favorites are the milk sticks (the guys), the pain au chocolat (the hubby) and the pear croissants (me).  I do hope you stop in and check them out.

We also recently stopped in at another lovely local patisserie on Queen Anne hill.  (Unlike Magnolia/Interbay the “AVE” in Queen Anne has baked goodies in abundance: Cafe De Lion, Macrina, El Diablo and Top Pot to name a few)  The patio at La Reve is probably the most delightful.

And I love how it’s also right near the bookstore and some other cute shops too.

(PS. if you really need to work off the sugar energy, there is a playground literally a few blocks away.)

Bakeries plus playground plus sun equals perfect weekend.  I hope you have a lovely one!

(PPS. Isn’t it great when it’s only Wednesday and you’re already dreaming of week END!)

(PPPS I first heard about Fuji Bakery from a lovely blogger named Shirley who has an amazing Japanese Food Blog and I’m oh so grateful!)
