Rocket Bakery

Great neighborhood spot to grab a table and treat yourself to some well brewed coffee. Addicted to their Caramel Pecan cinnamon roll. Easy back door entrance and parking.

Wonderful place to grab and go, but even better to order a delicious bakery item and coffee to share with a friend (or just some quiet time by yourself). Great, friendly service!

Had a lovely experience at Rocket Bakery! Wonderful bagel with pesto cream cheese and a specialty flavoured latte that was beautiful! Staff were kind and the atmosphere is super cute and cosy on a winters afternoon.

Best coffee in Millwood, great service and sense of community, nice atmosphere to hang out in for a while. Also they have a drive-thru kiosk nearby. There's really no reason to use the Starbucks drive-thru next to Safeway anymore.

10.31.25: We drove the hour to Spokane to run an errand. Afterwards, I wanted to find a pie bakery to try other than Birdie's. I quickly did some research and found Rocket Bakery was just 5 mins away from where we were. We pulled into the tiny parking and luckily there was 1 spot left. When we walked in, it was more of a coffee shop than a bakery I had envisioned. However, they had a small area of baked goods and a glass window of cakes/pie and ready-made food. I didn't recall being greeted either. Vibe was kinda off, not the cool vibing coffee shop feel. After looking at everything, the only pie option they had was a Rhubarb Custard, which I went ahead and ordered a slice. I also got a slice of the Blueberry Cheesecake Tart, and a berry scone. My friend got a slice of the Lemon Tart and a chocolate chip cookie. The young employee helping us was really nice, but I think she felt overwhelmed by the line of people started to form. Towards the end of putting our order together, another employee came to help. I also felt we were kinda rushed out of there. So much so, that after we were handed our food, out the door, and almost to the car-- an employee came running out with a box in her hand. She forgot to give us one of our slices. The berry scone was pretty good. It was dense, moist, and cooked perfectly. I was excited to try the rhubarb custard pie, but unfortunately it fell short for me. The rhubarb wasn't tart at all, giving it a real subtle taste. Possibly could have used too much sugar to cut the tartness. The custard and crust part wasn't bad. I could taste the nutmeg and cinnamon and a hint of vanilla. The blueberry cheesecake tart had great flavor. It wasn't too cheesy nor sugary. Preferably, I wished it had a bit more blueberry topping. The crust was interesting--it was good and I think it had nuts, oatmeal, and coconut mixed into it. My friend said his lemon tart was really good but that the winner was the chocolate chip cookie. He said it was on the softer side and filled with mini sweet chocolate chips that he really enjoyed. For now, I'll continue my quest in search of yummy pies in CDA and Spokane.
