El Camino Bakery • Artisan Bakery & Pastry, Cincinnati OH

Delicious pastries but the person at the barista was very rude. I nicely asked if there was a discount for pastries purchased 10 minutes prior to closing. He said that I was not entitled to a pastry but he would give me a free pastry out of the 5 pastries that I ordered. I never thought that I was entitled…. Very rude

Oh my! Ancient grain break. Berry Danish with a croissant-flakey crust. Bananas Foster. Each bite more heavenly than the last. Thank you El Camino. You made my weekend.

The pastries are absolutely delicious every time I come in! My favorite new place to go to in college hill. I will say today I was disappointed that the iced latte I purchased tasted burnt, and sounded as though the steamer was being used which is making me wonder if someone just steamed coffee instead of pulling an espresso shot because the steamer isn’t necessary for an iced latte. Usually never have this issue so I will continue to come weekly and hopefully this was just a fluke!

Find your way to El Camino for all your gluten needs.

Featuring but not limited to fine flaky pastries, artisanal real breads, occasional pizzas and sandwiches.

The quiche is. Croissants are bonkers. Really haven't had any misses here.

Flour is milled on site so you know this stuff is legit.

They got some caffeinated drinks like espresso, cortado, and matcha.

They also sell bags of coffee and flour, so you can make worse versions at home

Delicious food, but all the fruit pastries have a strong lemon taste that I don’t love. Other than that an amazing bakery. XOXO

The best bakery I’ve ever been to. I have a gluten sensitivity but I can eat here - not sure what it is!
Their customer service is unmatched. As it was pouring rain a friend and I took cover in their awning. The owner’s partner was there and let us in, even though the bakery was closed. They gave us towels to dry off and a coffee to warm up. She even let us stay and chat as she worked. I’m so incredibly grateful - me and my 6 month old baby who was along for this wild ride. Thank you, El Camino!

Visited at opening hour on a weekday. Convenient parking in front of the bakery at a meter. Got 5 sweet and savory pastries to go. They all tasted amazing! A fair price at $5 or less for each of the items I chose.

Delicious and beautiful addition to the neighborhood. Top tier pastry-craft. The croissants are authentic, a balance of crisp, light and flavorful that can be hard to find. The summer vegetable quiche was almost unreasonably fantastic.

What a bakery gem! First time visit last Sunday morning to grab goodies for a family visit. I cant even find the words to describe how amazing these pastries tasted! My only regret is not buying a loaf of their homemade bread!

Delicious! I tried 4 different pastries/croissants. All 4 were outstanding! Great service from the fellow up front & what a clean cute environment. Will be back!

Got two pastries: Lime Curd & Blueberry and Strawberry Cream Cheese. Both were phenomenal! Lovely shop and great customer service.

I had this cardamom bun here a while ago that was ridiculously good, I think top 3 best sweet baked good I've ever had vs the world. I hope that one comes around more often.

I was passing by just as it was closing. Lost the opportunity to get fresh bread. But it looks nice to come back to so I’ll review it better then stop

Simply fantastic!
Treat yourself to one of their delicious pastries and a coffee.
Your mouth will thank you for doing so.

Super delicious flakey croissant! Gotta get there early or they'll run out. It's THAT good.

El Camino fits right in to the neighborhood and it’s my favorite morning pick-me-up. Their baked goods actually make you feel GOOD. Their matcha lattes are also always on point. The owner is great, the baristas are so kind and helpful. I love this place. Please go have the best croissant of your life!

I've been here twice now. It's not what I might think of when I hear "bakery" in that there aren't donuts and cookies. The selection is small, but seems to vary. Most importantly, though, is that everything I've had here is totally delicious!

The first words out of my mouth when I took my first bite of croissant was “Omg…I’m in Paris! ”. Megan and her team are flawless in their creations. Oh how fortunate we are to have the gem in Cincinnati!

Nice surprise after breakfast across the street. Really great coffee and I’ll have to come back for the delicious looking pastries and bread.
