Empire Baking Co.

07/08/23: I went to Empire Baking this afternoon to pick up an order. Can’t believe I’ve never been here before. Everything looked delicious!!!! I wanted a sample of all the goodies. Can’t wait to go again. *****Be aware that google maps will take you to the back of the bakery aka the delivery truck entrance. That’s what happened to me today. The main entrance is off of University. There are around 6-8 parking spots in front. The parking lot is pretty small, so is the bakery itself. Not a shot at the bakery, just sharing..*****

Although the service was awkward, the pastries were delicious, and that's what I came for. Recommended.

Away from the Inwood Village hub-bub, but it still has the basics & then some. Picked up some walnut bread & baked goodies, including lemon shortbread cookies, muffin & cinnamon roll. There's also prepped foods in the refrigerated area. Parking is very limited.

I knew a head of time that this was a small storefront located at the bakery, so I wasn’t anticipating all the menu items located in Inwood Village. There’s a chocolate chip cook with sea salt that is delicious. I have to hold myself back from eating them all in a sitting. The muffins are okay. But the real star is the bread. My all-time favorite is the jalapeño cheddar. It’s amazing! I’ve had a handle of different types, and I’ve never been disappointed.

Lovely bakery and warm hospitality! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted and the smell of all the baked goods was heavenly. The kind gentleman at the counter introduced us to how they craft their baked goods and went over several items since we were first time visitors. I love how they only use good ingredients and no preservatives/unnecessary additives. I purchased a carrot pecan muffin, banana bread, and shortbread cookies. They were all tasty! I’ll be back to try the varieties of breads.
