Macrina Bakery & Cafe

Great place to hang out and catch up! Indoor and out door seating! I love the tasteful decorations inside. All very on theme and cohesive. Come on Sunday morning for the farmers market right next door! So many pastry options and drinks. Lots of gifts to purchase as souvenirs too. Water is your choice of still or sparkling. Bus yourself! This is gonna be my go to pastry breakfast spot on Sundays!

Despite several other recent new bakeries on Mercer Island, Macrina seems to be the place everyone has been waiting for and it’s been busy the few times I’ve been there. I love the outside tables, not loving the inside as much although it’s spacious and nice. Vast selection, good service. My breakfast BLT was delicious.

Ordered the Crustada dessert and it was really delicious. The fruit seemed fresh and not overly sugary. We loved the almond flour crust! Plus, we ordered a carrot cheesecake for which the frosting was rich. Staff helped us sort out our order and gave us instructions as to how to keep the desserts. Really good customer service!

Great ambience, love the new addition to Mercer island. I love the marionberry biscuits, it didn’t look as good as I removed them but I could not resist getting one. It tasted stale and not fresh:( it was close to end of days t 530 but if you’re going to charge over $6 for something, it should taste good. Disappointed.

Spacious cafe and ofcourse fresh bakery items! Instead of eating baked goods sourced from Macrina in other cafés, it’s so nice to have them fresh at Macrina while enjoying a good coffee. The roly poly (cinnamon roll with raisins and coconut flakes) is especially good and banana walnut bread is a winner!
