The Phoenix Bakery

We stopped in for an order of cupcakes for a smaller kids party. Staff were courteous and the bakery was super inviting with nice relaxing atmosphere. Everything looked fresh and our wait time was limited. Enjoyed the cupcakes and would recommend again.Cheers!

What a gem. This has to be the most visited food spot in PBO. (Given there’s not may breakfast spots here) As a New Yorker, it’s hard to be impressed by food places but this bakery is beyond my expectations for any bakery. The bread, the pastries, the food items, it is superb. The esthetic of the place is just the cherry on top, it has such a charm to it, it’s cozy and welcoming and super family friendly. We always get the biscuits/scones/English muffins (which are to die for) and today we got the breakfast potatoes and it was all fresh and perfectly made. The service is also always friendly and they’re always fast! It’s the perfect weekday breakfast or Sunday morning breakfast. I could go on and on but you get the point.

Pheonix never disappoints. My personal favorite are the scones but my kid loves the donuts. The staff and ownership are friendly and knowledgable and the service is quick. This is a must stop any time we are in the area.

best breakfast and bakery in Pittsboro! the biscuits and the donuts are awesome

My husband and I were in Pittsboro recently on a mini getaway, and The Phoenix was so great that we went there for brunch both days we were in town! We ordered the breakfast biscuit sandwiches and the lunch menu sandwiches, both of which we enjoyed thoroughly. We also loved the breakfast potatoes, coffee, and each of the bakery case items we tried! Everything was delicious and the staff members were helpful and friendly. The shop was also very fun, with lots of cool art and pantry products for sale. We can't wait to go back - this will now be a regular stop for us when we come to visit Pittsboro!
