Spring Garden Bakery & Coffee
1932 Spring Garden St, Greensboro, NC
Crema's Take
“This cozy Greensboro neighborhood spot serves up genuinely excellent fresh-baked goods with impressive vegan options that rival their traditional pastries, all in an intimate setting that feels like visiting a friend's kitchen rather than a typical cafe. The vibe is authentically local and inviting with ample parking out back and a welcoming atmosphere perfect for lingering over coffee and a muffin, whether you're meeting a friend or settling in solo with a quiche and a slow pour.”

Spring Garden Bakery is really a charming local gem, and it has that authentic local vibe that makes you want to keep coming back. Because the place is smaller its more warm, inviting and you can always expect to find friendly people there. The baristas and bakery staff are, without a doubt, the best and they are very welcoming, friendly, and always at your service. Their nutritional buns are great, and the quality is always the same. And it goes without saying that their Free Muffin Fridays are amazing and a thing that I look forward to every week.
I really, really wanted to like this place, but after a few tries, I dont plan on returning. Many pastries are individually Saran wrapped, which typically would be fine, but Im fairly certain they do it to keep pastries for many days, as Ive purchased several different pastries that were dry and stale, and I think they were old, sold at full price. Fresh pastries dont need to be wrapped. The establishment does not seem all that clean, or hygienic. And im aware all bakeries use canned goods to some degree, but Ive noticed this bakery seems to use almost exclusively bulk canned ingredients, and the cheapest possible, affecting quality. The only good thing this place has going, is that the employees working there are very friendly, welcoming and attentive.
Excellent!! I stopped by just for a vegan pumpkin chocolate chip muffin and it didn’t disappoint. So hard to find bakeries that cater to vegans. My husband got a vegan blueberry muffin and a snickerdoodle iced latte and oh my goodness that latte was one of the best coffees I’ve ever tasted. So strong and rich and tasty. I only had a sip but it was amazing.
This neat little spot in Greensboro is perfect for a coffee and a treat. They have delicious fresh baked goods and quiches. Plus, there's ample parking out back.
I stopped in at Spring Garden bakery to get my all time favorite muffin - the vegan pumpkin chocolate chip muffin. I get the vegan one because it’s so moist and to me it’s better than the regular one! I also picked up a morning glory muffin and a few cookies. The morning glory muffin is excellent and I loved the shredded carrots in there. It tastes homemade and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The chocolate chip cookie was just average, nothing special but it wasn’t bad. The peanut butter cookie was great. The location is easy to access from the back parking lot, you just walk in at the rear of the building. The staff is friendly and pleasant. I discovered they have buy one get one free muffins on Friday so I will definitely be paying a visit again soon! Oh and FYI around the holiday season, they have THE BEST fruit cake! It doesn’t have all that artificial coloring stuff in it, it’s very pure and natural, we love it!
