Hillcrest Bakery

The people that work here are so nice. I loved coming in to get my mom’s birthday cake, the employees were so kind and even held the door open for me when I left. Wonderful people and exceptional service. I was so happy about how nice everyone was I forgot to mention the cake haha. Cake was beautiful! And we loved it :) Thank you guys! Your kind happy selves make a huge difference- please know that and how appreciated you are!

They have so many options to choose from and everything looked so delectable. I got three kinds of pastries and sausage rolls. Everything tastes delicious too! Highly recommend visiting this place. 😋

I was looking for a princess cake and smash cake for my one year old and my co-worker recommended this place for cakes - she had her wedding cake here over 30 years ago! I have had their pastries before (amazing) but never cake however I decided to book with Hillcrest after discussing with their bakers Michele and Elise that they could execute my vision of a vintage pink-white-gold cake. Additionally, they could deliver which was amazing since many bakeries do not, or want a minimum spend. They helped me with the overwhelming cake options and answered all my questions. I ordered a two tiered 6” White cake with strawberry custard filling + 10” Chocolate cake with raspberry custard filling and a 6” Heart white cake with strawberry mousse filling for the smash cake. On the day of the event,

This place has been part of downtown Bothell for as long as I can remember, and I’m grateful it’s still here. There’s something special about having a bakery on Main Street that’s been serving this town for decades. I usually go for the bread — the 100% whole wheat and the sourdough are staples in our house. Fresh, simple, and consistently good. I try to pick up a loaf every week or so, and it never disappoints. In a world of chains and quick turnover, it means a lot to have a spot like this still baking bread the old-fashioned way. We’re lucky to have them.

My husband and I loved our experience at Hillcrest! We ordered our baby announcement cake from them and we were floored! I went in with a very simple idea and they exceeded my expectations completely! They asked if I would want little bees on the cake and I was surprised with the most adorable beehive cake! I think about this cake at least twice a week. Not only was it beautiful, it was one of the best cakes I’ve eaten in my life!! I shared it with my family- some of whom are self described frosting haters- and they agreed it was the best frosting they ever had! We’re currently in the process of ordering from them for our baby shower and my husband has declared for every birthday our daughter has, we’re ordering a cake from Hillcrest! 15/10- could not be more pleased :)
