Baker & Spice
6330 SW Capitol Hwy, Portland, OR
Crema's Take
“Baker & Spice is a beloved Hillsdale neighborhood gem that buzzes with genuine energy, especially on weekend mornings, where locals gather for exceptional pastries and sandwiches that clearly justify the devoted following. The real standout here is their commitment to quality across the board—whether you're biting into a buttery everything croissant paired with their best-in-class tuna sandwich or indulging in creative treats like peanut butter miso cookies and coffee ricotta cheesecake, every item feels thoughtfully made. It's the kind of place where the combination of stellar baked goods, satisfying sandwiches, and welcoming atmosphere makes it a destination rather than just a quick coffee stop.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Pastries and light food on the menu.

I don't shop at this bakery often as I live out of state. Here is my experience: Pros: Their sourdough bread was good when I tried a few months ago. Nice atmosphere Good service Cons: A few pastries of theirs I have tried in the past fell short to me. Just didn't taste good to…
Yikes! Mean is the best way I can describe this experience. I have worked in the hospitality industry so I like to give a little grace, but it was met with eye rolls angry responses and not just by one employee by everyone I encountered. I tipped my dutiful percentage and walked…
