“A Tasty Bit of Heaven...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 9, 2012

Pearl Bakery is so delicious that I had to return for three days in a row. I just had to be sure it wasn't a fluke. I highly recommend their pumpkin bread, cinnamon crown or bear claw. Just make sure you pair it with a latte to complete the goodness. The staff was friendly and helpful and I truly don't think you can make a bad choice.

“What's with the fuss about this place?”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 9, 2012

Very friendly staff, nice bakery in a convenient location. But that's about it. Selection of breakfast items was very limited. I ordered the Cinnamon bun which I had read so much about on TA but was left dissapointed. Dry and bland.

Also tried the cornmeal bread and if it wasn't for the jam I poured on, it was dry as plywood.

Maybe I didn't order the right things but I was left very dissappointed.

“Cute Bakery!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 6, 2012

This bakery has a classy, urban atmosphere. I got a soy chai, a brownie, and a roll (for later). All were great. I stopped here on the way to Powell's books.

“Favorite Pre-Powels stop... followed by a Post-Powels stop :)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 3, 2012

We love to grab coffee and a pastry before visiting the City of Books and a delicious sandwich to enjoy on our drive back to Bend!

“Grab a latte and enjoy!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 25, 2012

Best latte's in Portland in my humble opinion! The bakery fair is excellent as well. There seems to always be a line no matter what time you get there so the secret is out.
