The Great Gadsby Bakery — Restaurant in Gilbert

This place has become a go-to since I started going (a few months after it opened). Highly recommend stopping by.

Food: 10/10 I make it a point to try anything new each time I go, but my favorite and go-to is the fruit eclair. I'm not normally an eclair fan (and I am usually a chocolate lover), but the fruit eclair is mildly sweet, light and fluffy. Perfect for those who want to stay away from extra sweet treats.

My current favorite that they've had recently is the belgian chocolate tart. Creamy, slightly sweet chocolate, crunchy crust, and a dollop of something creamy and delicious on top (I'll have to ask). It was so good I went back and bought one for my chocolate-loving friend (she loved it).

If it's your first time, I suggest getting some recommendations from the staff. Let them know your preferences (e.g. do you like very sweet or lightly sweet, chocolate, fruity, etc.) and you're more likely to run into something you'll love. Also, as other previous people have noted, their cupcakes are dense. I like them, but stick to trying other items if you prefer fluffy cupcakes. Also, if you like peanut butter cups, a must try is the peanut butter mousse cupcake.

Service: 10/10 I've always had wonderful counter service. They are friendly and knowledgeable about what is available. I love to chat with them when there isn't a line.

Atmosphere: 10/10 It's a comfy little space. Clean. I've enjoyed bringing a group of friends to sit and sample. Again, the staff is wonderful, contributing to the...

I have visited this bakery too many times to count! The pastries are incredible! The croissants are crisp and flaky on the outside, with buttery layers inside, but compared to other authentic European style croissants, they are HUGE! Their chocolate croissants, almond croissants, and my favorite: crispy, caramelized Kouign-Amann are out of this world amazing! My husband and I have eaten sausage rolls in Switzerland and Scotland recently, and they did not even compare to the ones made here! They make their own sausage from the local Pork Shop, and then wrap that in layers of beautiful, crispy puff pastry! They make them every day they are open, you MUST try them! Their cinnamon buns are legendary, and when they make apple ones in the fall, they are divine! They have a huge selection, with many cream pies, big cookies, brownies, cakes, and many European desserts- they rotate some of these things daily. Get there before they sell out, and also call or text ahead to have them reserve what you need! And believe me, you NEED their goodies, you deserve a treat! I have brought and sent so many friends here, and they...

I’m just gonna start off by saying, GET THE HOMEMADE POP TARTS! So damn good! They’re big and the crust is fluffy and they’re full of flavor. They have raspberry and strawberry. Both are equally delicious.

The cupcakes are all very good. Nice and moist. We get a variety of things when we go. I would recommend for sure. Last visit we spent about $68 for 6 cupcakes, a cookie, a fruit tart and a lemon meringue tart. Oh and I got 4 pop tarts plus they offer day old pop tarts for $10 for a box of 4 so I got those too.

I’ve also had their cinnamon buns and they are delicious. They’ll warm it up if you want.

It’s very small inside though they do have 2 tables to sit at and then a few small tables outside. It’s more of a grab and go not really a stay and sit. Not kid friendly in the sense that there’s really nowhere to sit.

Drink situation:

They have regular coffee here but that’s about it so don’t expect much more. Bring something to drink if you want...
