Rocket Bakery

Great friendly staff that know how to make great coffee. They have a large selection of sandwiches and desserts available. This is such a cool space to get coffee, a bite to eat and a place to relax with a cool.atmosphete to enjoy. I highly recommend.

What a great little coffee shop. Coffee is very good, and the baked goods are very good. It is a real gem. Great place to spend your afternoon.

This coffee shop started out fine, the employee was sweet and sociable. Didn't stay long enough to check out the bathrooms. The decor is so not my cup of tea (old and rugged), and the light cover had webs - downtown's shop is very nice. Still, what I just went through here nothing can make my frustration go away but time. I really wasn't surprised after the fact b/c I had unpleasant experiences at their downtown location like twice and now this Garland location, sadly...b/c I believe only Starbucks can make you miserable. I ordered and all was well, then a man w/two boys just totally out of control comes in, they start swinging on bars kicking the chair to my table and the chair hitting the table. I'm patient, delusionally believing the Father was going to handle the boys or the employee at least make the Father aware...but no, of course not! After enduring this for several inappropriate minutes, one of the boys started to scream as in throws a fit, but the Father still does nothing and literally comes to sit near me...w/the entire section available that was nearly empty on the other side, he chooses to sit where I was - I gathered my stuff and left my freshly paid tea on the table! On the positive side I ended up finding a fantastic coffee shop on the same street and it was a nice experience.

Even their espresso taste like dripped coffee, the food‘s always lukewarm, and the baristas seem to have no sense of urgency when it comes to waiting on customers three of them standing at the counter, talking to one person completely ignoring the whole line behind. The place is as humid as Louisiana and constantly smells like mildew. I much prefer the other Rocket Bakery.

I spent a night wandering and looking at the stars. What are the miracles that await me, I thought, if I could only be spirited away to the corners of the universe? But my earthy life was all too ordinary; there was nothing extraordinary about my life. As the clock turned to seven my lonely sojourn took me down Garland Street. When would I escape the plainness of my terrestrial existence, I wondered. When would I find passage to other worlds, a fitting ferry to transport me to a better potentiality? My earth-bound footsteps took me past closed thrift stores and diners, and I rubbed my eyes in confusion. Was this, before me, a spacecraft? Surely, I thought, such a vessel would not allow my entrance, but to my surprise the door to Rocket Bakery opened. Within, I found a display case. I discovered wonders: muffins! cookies! cinnamon rolls the size of Saturn! Houston, we do not have a problem; we have here the solution to our drab earthly realities. We have a passage to the stars, moon, and heavenly bodies! I ordered a muffin and a coffee, and I was aghast at the fairness of the payment required. It didn’t require a conversation with my bank loan officer such as in other trendy coffee places asking for a purchase. No, the passage on this rocket was only seven dollars for my muffin and coffee. In taking my seat in this vessel and consuming these treasures I found comfort, fullness, and all the wonders of the universe and . . . yes . . . joy.

Why would you go anywhere else to get a good cup of coffee or better yet, a delicious treat like banana bread, a cinnamon roll, triple berry scone or many other treats. Keep it local with non-chain businesses like ROCKET BAKERY.

Absolutely loved the shop. The barista was one of the kindest, skilled baristas I've met in awhile. She provided suggestions and made our coffee while maintaining rapport. We got an iced oat latte and the chocolate orange infused latte. Super delicious!!

A great local coffee shop with a good selection of pastries and drinks. Nice cozy space, not too loud

Add with the South Hill Rocket Bakery... Lots of pastry selections, but definitely a coffee house, not a bakery. Had an oat berry bar. Good, very dense. Coffee drinks were fine. Most of the seating has no outside light and so a bit dark. Maybe a good thing if working on a computer.

Batista was super friendly and didn't miss a beat! Cozy little hole in the wall. Cinnamon roll and pecan roll were delicious. We will be back

Highly recommend there Argonne store. This one has a small variety and the staff was irritated when I read the menu and asked for a sandwich. (It was not on that stores menu)

(Hopefully) moving to the area and had a nice chat with the person working there! So many baked good options! I got a pink frosted sugar cookie (which was huge!) for my real estate agent and I had a raspberry oatmeal bar, which was so oaty and wonderful. I will definitely visit again!

I absolutely love this coffee shop. I've been to every location and I absolutely love each of them. The atmosphere is so warm and unique. I've been obsessed with their vanilla chai tea with oat milk. Definitely suggest trying it at any of the locations you go to. I refuse to go to Starbucks, Dutch bros, or wake up call anymore. Support local! You won't be disappointed.

Needed to meet a friend and get a cup of coffee at the same time. Great spot to make both those things happen. Nestled in the Garland District, this quaint bakery / coffee shop has a lot to offer. Walking in you get welcoming smiles from staff and a whiff of baked goods. Thank god there was a display case between me and everything they had to offer. Nothing sparks my attention more than sweets. However, that day when I came in--I needed more than that. Coffee: 8oz cappuccino was well-crafted and I enjoyed the espresso roast they use. To me it had a happy medium robust flavor. Goes to show how much they care about the products they serve. Bravo! Food: BREAKFAST BAGELS here definitely hit the spot. You get a pick your bagels which comes with a baked egg, Canadian bacon, and cheddar cheese. I'm not much of a bagel fan but I was delightfully surprised. Coffee and bagel orders can pile up, so there may be a little wait but don't be disappointed. It's worth the wait here.

Ordered a slice of rhubarb tart. Well it was not a tart it was a pie with way too much pie crusts was very dry . Mostly pie crust. Someone needs to teach y'all what a tart is!! Coffee was good

Walked through the door and was greeted with smiles and this "Procaffinating: The tendency to not start anything until you've had a cup of coffee." My kind of shop. This Rocket Bakery has such a great small neighborhood feel to it. The exterior just recently had a face lift and now has a retractable garage door to let in more light and open air in the warmer months. Particular bakery favorites are the ginormous cinnamon rolls and their poppyseed muffins. The cinnamon rolls will feed a small army... This is a great spot to come with a book or a friend and enjoy the mismatched couches and funky furniture.

This was a very cute and yummy place to go. I got a hot chocolate that was very good and a piece of banana bread. The banana bread was very big I couldn't finish it all so I took it home. This is a very inexpensive place to go. The workers are very kind to you. It is also a very relaxing place to go. Super quiet inside, just overall a great place and have coffee with your friends or you could even go there and do homework and get work done. I did notice a lady with a laptop there so I'm sure they have WiFi that is available if you needed that.

I hate to write a bad review but this was the worst bagel I have ever had in my life. Even for a northwest bagel. 3.50 for a cardboard piece of bread. So sad I was hoping for a good bagel and was so hungry or I wouldn't have eaten it

Worst rocket bakery in town. Don't carry lox but still advertising it? Also burned my damn bagel and I asked for it with cream cheese and you give it to me on the side?! Wtf isn't the point of me coming to have you make it? Won't be going back and advise you chose another place. The downtown one is amazing

Great coffee, service and a relaxed dive-ish atmosphere. The bakery portion is dangerous, but best of... the couches. Excellent place for a date, to study or relax and read a book. FYI, there's a used book store 100' up the street.

A little slice of Spokane. I so love this place and how it is a staple here in the city. The salmon lox wrap was one of my favorites. The coffee shop itself is so great to take my laptop to or an old book I'm finishing. Love it.

4 stars because this is a big coffee shop with a lot of comfortable seating, friendly staff, and a quiet environment that's great for getting work down. 4 stars, however, because the coffee isn't superb. Admittedly, I just got a black drip coffee, so I can't speak to the quality of the baristas, but from what I tasted they're not using anything particularly special. If you want a solid cup of coffee I'd suggest Coeur coffee, Indaba, or Atticus above Rocket, but if you're up north and looking for a quiet place to sit down and get stuff done this place will absolutely do the trick. Enjoy!

What you want in a coffee shop. Fun bakery items and snacks made fresh. Reasonable prices. Lots of cozy nooks to settle into to read, study, or work.

It's SUCH a relief to find an option for coffee that doesn't have affiliations with starbucks or coffee that has only drive-up options. MOREOVER, it's a huge relief to find a quiet little place that serves my favorite brew from back hom: Caffe Vita Thanks Rocket

This is a fun little neighborhood bakery/coffee shop in the Garland District with a good assortment of baked goods from cookies to quiches and everything in between. They have good coffee/espresso and the atmosphere is homey, cosy, and relaxed, with old mismatched furniture to plop down on while you enjoy your pastry or your coffee. They also sell kombucha on tap, which I have not tried yet, but hey, it's cool that they have it available. Don't expect speedy service as they usually only have one person behind the counter who isn't typically a speed-demon, so if you're impatient or in a rush take a deep breath and expect to linger while your order is processed.

I love Rocket Bakery, but for some reason this particular one I've always had minor issues at. I'm not sure why that is. The biggest annoyance is they don't have everything the other ones do. Or don't express that, like today they just made me a bagel that was wrong instead of saying we don't have jalapeño bagels. So I got a cheese bagel, and this bakery doesn't have other cream cheese options? (why?) Like just tell me you don't have it, don't let walk out and find out it's only a cheese bagel.. Very disappointing. Other times they forget to give me what I ordered and I'm having to wait in line again to say hey are you going to give me my lemon bar? I'm trying hard not to be a bitch but when it's the only carbs I get weekly and I normally moan loudly while having my rocket bakery bagel... It's super disappointing. I guess I will start making a special trip to the over by Maple street bridge.

This is my all time favorite coffee and pastries shop. I walked into the place after shopping at BookTraders next door. The place is eclectic but the service and selection is good. It would be nice if they had a second barista when it gets busy.

Fresh kombucha on tap, delicious coffee and tea, great tunes, pleasant staff and service all make for the perfect environment to read a book, finish up some work, or catch up with a friend. Love this place. And don't forget the free and easy parking on Garland.

Had an asiago bagel and an americano, decent prices all around and so many things to choose from. Lots of amazing looking cookies and pastries. I'm pretty sure the bagel was fresh, if not it sure tasted that way. It was very soft and enjoyable. The coffee was made exactly to order and came out satisfyingly cold as I enjoy it. The whole environment was very quiet and relaxing, good music and good vibes. You never know what you'll find while you're struggling to get your Pokemon Go up and functioning. This place was delicious, I look forward to stopping in again soon.

Delicious pastries (check out the day old basket) great coffee, nice atmosphere. With little parking and usually only one barista working though it's not the place to stop if you are in a hurry

Cute bakery, and great coffee. It's a wonderful place to get work done or catch up with friends

I really want to like this coffee shop but it seems like every time I come here there is at least a couple really loud tables of people. Maybe coffee shops are the new bars? Just today there were several of us at different tables that could not believe the loudness and uncontrollable laughter of one table. In addition, the place is dirty. If they actually put out a welcome mat of some sort entryway carpet there wouldn't be fall leaves everywhere. They do have a good selection of teas. Expect to wait. I don't think I've ever seen more than one person working when I've been here. The only gets higher than 1 star for me is it's close to my place and it's not Starbucks. This place has potential, misses the mark. Too bad.

I hardly ever write bad reviews, but I have to say something, in hopes that it will possibly help. The Rocket Bakery on Garland used to be my favorite coffee place, the people were really friendly, the manager was always genuinely nice and made excellent coffee. I moved away from Spokane and came back for a visit recently. I had to go to Rocket of course! I was so incredibly disappointed and confused. The espresso in my drink tasted bitter as well as being lukewarm. The manager took my order, her name was Elssa I believe and she was blatantly rude to another customer, made fun of the lady in front of me after she had ordered and walked away to another employee and was pretty cold to me and my husband. I just can't believe how bad this Rocket got.

After reading so many positive reviews on here my mother recommended we go here. We stopped in on the way in to downtown. I was hoping for 2 chocolate croissants but we had gotten there too late in the day, and there was just one left. I let my mom have it and opted for a slice of cake. I figured you can't really go wrong with chocolate cake? Right? Wrong!! Both items were dry - but they were tasty! Maybe if we go earlier next time they will be better.. Their peach apple oat bars were fantastic though!! hopefully we'll be by there earlier so we can each have a chocolate croissant!

Jet into Rocket! Stumbled passed Rocket because Taste was on vacation. Though Rocket had 5 stars it was listed far down the Yelp list though I had chosen to list by ratings. THIS PLACE IS ALL 5 STARS!!! Fantastic mixed berry scone and bagel & egg sandwich. My daughter said the chai tea was the best ever. Atmosphere is relaxing and the servers were great.

The girl at the counter was super friendly to every customer that walked in the door. There's a nice little quiet area in the back that you can sit and read in cozy old chairs or at a community table. Bright windows up in front or two teeny tables outside. Great selection of baked goods, all labelled with the ingredients. I just had regular coffee and it was fine. I recommend the chocolate swirl bread - so delicious! My tab was under $5 which is amazing for 2 items that were quality. I will be back for sure!

Great coffee, food, and service! Love going here to read or study or just hang out. Awesome atmosphere.

Good coffee, wonderful atmosphere. They have free wifi (they will give you the password) and great tables, sofas and chairs to sit. Excellent place to study. I haven't tried their food, but it looks good.

This is a great little spot with excellent coffee and eats! Comfortable, relaxed environment with a vintage feel. Love to meet friends at this spot! (All the rocket bakeries are excellent, this one is just closer to home!)

Nice quiet coffee shop with very comfortable seating. Has a great layout, and is comparable in prices to most places in town. Plus the staff is always nice.

This is a smaller, more intimate version of the Rocket I am more familiar with on W. 1st downtown, but just as good. This morning I had an iced white mocha iced coffee, and a BIG slice of Potato and bacon quiche. Both were good. I chose to eat my HUGE piece of quiche cold, but next time I think I will ask to have it heated. I didn't taste to much bacon. maybe heating is the key, but it was filling.

Cute on the inside with big tables for doing schoolwork. Two seating areas in the front and back so that I could choose which was quieter for studying. The girl who was working was very friendly and sweet. Good quality espresso and reasonable prices.

You want some good coffee? Well drinking this coffee is like blasting off to the moon! Except you don't have to go through years of training to drink it, you don't need to have a bachelor's in the sciences to apply to drink it, you don't need 1000 hours of piloting aircraft, you don't need 20/20 vision, you don't need a 140/90 blood pressure, you don't need to be between 62 and 75 inches tall, you don't have to make a commitment of isolation for months on end, there isn't anywhere near as many life threatening hazards, and you don't get to wear a suit that you may or may not be able to use the restroom in... Ok, whatever, the coffee here is fantastic, leave me alone.

my favorite place to get my morning juice and bagel. Everyone is super friendly and its got a great atmosphere
