Grand Central Bakery

The front entrance looks dark and seem like the store is closed, but just open the front door and walk inside, you will find the bakery on your left hand side. I thought they were closed the first time I went. They have great selection of bake goods, and coffee. They are located in this lovely train station like old building. They have a a large seating area just right out side of the store.

So many delicious looking options! I had the coffee cake because it was recommended to me, which wasn’t what I normally would have gotten and it was so perfect! The cake was soft, the apples were crisp yet cooked and the crumble was toasty and amazing. The hot chocolate was made with house-made chocolate syrup and the chocolate cookies are three different single origins AND gluten free. Yum!

Great place! Stopped by here for lunch, everything looked great. Turkey deluxe and Rueben sandwich are what our group ordered. Both were juicy & very very tasty. Wanted to try some of the pastries but was too full!

Beautiful entrance on a beautiful day. I arrived by 10 am so it wasn't crowded. Had a piece of strawberry frangipane.. delicious. It was nice to enjoy a good pastry outside.

After a light lunch, my colleague decided to head to Grand Central Bakery and pick up some cookies back to the workspace. He has been recommending their cookies & I decided to tag along to check out this outlet in Pioneer Square. A large place, that includes a cafe that I hear serves an excellent Soup & Salad lunch, bookmarked it for a later visit. The cookies were large and inviting, we decided to pick two each of each variety. There was Peanut Butter, Choco chip, Double Choco chip, Oatmeal Raisin, Oatmeal Choco chip, Triple Chocolate & Ginger Molasses. I absolutely loved the Triple Chocolate, which was gooey & melt in your mouth chocolate goodness. The ginger molasses was equally good with balanced ginger punch with a mild flavour of molasses. Now that I have sampled a part of their menu, should visit soon for their lunch specials & other baked goodies.

The Food Here Was So Delicious! We took ours just down the block end enjoyed lunch at the UPS Waterfall Garden Park! This place is such a great stop for lunch! The building is breathtaking and the ivy that grows on it is perfect for pictures! the park is incredible!

The best biscuit. Let me lead with... I’m from the south and had a real southern grandmother who made the best biscuits. When I went into grand central recently I asked “how’s the biscuit”, they said “it’s the best”, I said, “are you sure? I’m from the south 😂😂”, they held firm to their statement... Since I’m from the south I will normally try a biscuit I see one on a menu, let me say, this one did not disappoint. The biscuit was soft and butter and flaky and amazing. I went for the egg and cheese biscuit. It was a win. They have other awesome items as well, but figured I’d focus on that one thing that was so amazing on my recent visit. Also, a great place for coffee!

The baked goods are very tasty. Grand Central Bakery donates all left over food to a local food charity that feeds the homeless of Seattle. I am very happy to pay a little extra for that! Keep up the good deed!
