Smith’s Bakery

Smith’s Bakery is by far the best there is. They have been around for as many years as I can remember. They have multiple locations throughout town now and I’ve been to all of them. They take pride in the quality of their baked goods. Service is always great at each location.
When I was a kid, Mom ALWAYS got me their Pink Champagne cake for my birthday cake. It remains my favorite cake to this day. It is so delicious and each year since I moved away, I’ve missed that cake. It’s not enough of a reason to drive to or visit Bakersfield, but, since my parents still live here, I can get my fix every now and then.
Smith’s also has a variety of cookies. Their smiley face sugar cookies and the thumb print cookies are to die for. One cannot go to Smith’s without getting some. In fact, I may get some to take to my co-​workers.
Keep baking! I’ll see you on my next visit!

I LOVE Smith’s donuts and cookies to pieces, and was completely satisfied with what I bought when I visited this particular location at Brookside Deli, but since the teenage girl helping me had the worst attitude about everything I asked for, I shall not be returning to this one. :)
I’d rather drive 12 miles to Union avenue and buy from the nice ladies there.
(Smith’s products are so consistently good that I can’t go below 3 stars, but this one’s customer service needs some tweaking)

I love this bakery… the 1^st time I stopped was a Long time ago when I started using Unilocal… the owners granddaughter was the worst costumer service ever… but I went again & a Hispanic older lady was so nice… she even gave me a sample… the 3^rd time I went I went to pick up a champagne cake for my sisters bday… BEST Champagne cake I have ever tasted… my sister loved it…& we both are bakers… so if we say it’s a good bakery we mean it:)

I hate the feeling of walking in this place… especially the old lady behind the gas station counter, she is always so grumpy. But, it is the closest Smith’s I got to the house, an if I am really lucky I get there on the day they make champagne cake cupcakes. Without those I’d probably never to think to even stop in.

I love love love their champagne cake! Wow so much better than Sweet surrenders omg yum! Also their banana nut cake with custard filling and whipped cream frosting is to die for! U can’t go wrong with them two choices try it and you can see for yourself.

I like this place for my sugar fixes. It would be five stars but sometimes they sell you yesterday’s cupcakes, and their cupcakes are pretty pricey anyhow, and certainly overpriced if stale. In thier defense, when I bring the cupcakes back, they cheerfully «make it right» usually I change for something else. The ladies in this store are very nice, they convey that they appreciate your patronage. I am usually here six or eight times a month, or however many times I fill up my truck.

When I’m in Southwest Bakersfield craving Smith’s Bakery and the car is in need of gasoline, then I head on over to this location.
Smith’s Bakery has a nice little spot inside Brookside Market. Smith’s is one of the best bakeries in town, and just about everything they make is delicious.
You’re sure to find something inside to satisfy your sweet tooth. Don’t come in too late though, cause they’ll be sold out of a lot of goodies by then.

The people behind the counter have always been nice to me. I enjoy the cookies, but they’re also somewhat bland. I make better cookies, in my opinion. So, I only buy from here on a whim, every once in a while. Sometimes, it’s just nice to see one of their smiling cookies; it seriously cheers me up each time I get one. :)

Yum! They have some bomb walnut brownie!

Chapagne cake, mmmmmmm!!!

This is my favorite bakery. Whenever I’m in town, I usually buy the yellow smiley face cookies. I wish they had a Smith’s in LA.

I really miss this place. Beside the typical assorted pastries that my coworkers and I used to eat on a weekly basis, I LOVE the yellow smiley face cookies and thumbprints with icing and sprinkles. I turn into the Cookie Monster when I’m near this place.
No bakery I’ve been to anywhere since does their cookies as good as Smith’s. Buttery with a nice texture, and the best icing. With their other items (pies, cakes, breads) they don’t disappoint either.
This is the bakery I measure all other against.
