I visited Primrose Bakery for the first time and had a great experience. There were 2 friendly girls working there who were super welcoming and kind. The service was great, and the cake I got was absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely be back!

This bakery has very vast variety of deserts, cakes, pastries, cookies, chocolates, turkish desert and what not. Their eclairs are really nice, recommended! The cakes look delicious as well, will order one of them next time. Location of Pleasanton downtown is add-on to the good vibe on this bakery.

Wow the cannolis were amazing! Ordered 4 pistachio and 4 chocolate as dessert for an Italian dinner night. Several people commented that these cannolis are the best they’ve ever had! Great ratio, not too sweet and the shells were a fabulous crunchy! Will be recommending and ordering again. Thank you!

Have to give them the five stars! We had a fruit tart as a birthday cake when we were celebrating a birthday for one of our friends at a restaurant near by! That fruit tart was the best fruit tart that I ever had. All the high quality real fruits with prefect sweetness on the filling and the crust! So we went back to the shop to pickup some more and was greeted by a very sweet young lady that patiently introducing their products and gave us suggestions! We just can’t wait till in the morning to have our coffee to go with more tarts and coffee cake we bought! We will need to come back in the near future for sure!

I went last Saturday. It was convenient with the Farmers Market going on. I stepped in for a Hot Oat Mocha Coffee and a homemade Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Store was well stocked neat and tidy. The Mocha and Cookie was excellent. A stop for sure when I'm in town. Thank you -David

This is absolutely one of my favorite stops in Pleasanton for a quick cup of coffee in the morning or an after school sweet treat for my kids or post dinner dessert as we stroll in downtown Pleasanton! The service is always fantastic and my favorite snickerdoodle always delights. Although those cheesecakes are phenomenal! Primrose Bakery is a gem in downtown Pleasanton and I love supporting them!

I was very impressed by the selection of gluten-free items at this bakery. They are gluten friendly so if you have celiac, I would ask before purchasing! I tried cookies, bars and cake just to give it all a shot and everything was a great sweet treat. I was also impressed about the hours as it’s very hard to find dessert. That is an ice cream that is open till 10 PM!
