Ken's Artisan Bakery

Really classy. Smells are amazing on entry. Stopped in after a trip to the nail salon next door. Beautiful atmosphere. Great Customer service. Got the fresh berry tart twice. So good. Had to get something savory from their menu and opted for the roast beef sammie. This was a great choice. Definitely THEE place to visit when in Portland.

This was my third visit, during my second trip to Portland. I stopped by for breakfast and shared a variety of pastries with a friend. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious. My favorites were definitely the Raspberry Escargot and the Oregon Croissant. The Morning Bun started off really well, but as I reached the center, the orange zest became a bit overpowering and slightly bitter. The Apricot Danish was decent, though not my favorite. The apricots had a slightly bitter aftertaste and leaned more tart than sweet. Overall, this bakery continues to be a must-visit whenever I’m in Portland.

It's very close to the Washington Park and I walked in from the park. There are maybe bakeries to choose from. I like palmier so I ordered the one. It's the last one. Amazingly good. Both coffee and bakeries are reasonably priced and the staff are very kind and helpful. There are long table 8 and small round tables for two people. Big window and old fashion interior. I love here.

What a great expérience with Jasmine,thr Coffee is excellent, croissant so so good like in France, long time didnt eat a great ham sandwich like this with an excellent butter. Lovely, Alex and irina from France

Our family stopped in at Ken’s Artisan Bakery and overall had a very solid experience. We ordered a variety of items to get a feel for the menu. The croissants were well-made with good texture and flavor — light, flaky, and satisfying. The ham, thyme, goat cheese, and Gruyere croissant in particular was excellent and stood out as the best item of the visit. I had the tuna salad sandwich, which was very good. The addition of pickled onion brought a bright, sharp contrast that elevated the whole sandwich. We also tried the grilled cheese, which was just okay — not bad, but something we probably wouldn’t order again. The pumpkin macarons were a hit with the kids, and we took home a few extras. One of the highlights for me was the coffee — genuinely some of the better coffee I’ve had. Rich flavor, smooth, and well-balanced. The only real drawback was the customer service, which felt a bit impersonal and transactional. Not rude, just not warm or welcoming. More of a “big city, stay in your lane, order and move along” feel. If you’re looking for a cozy, friendly small-town bakery vibe, this is not that. If you want excellent baked goods and quality coffee, this place delivers. Would return, especially for the croissants, macarons, and coffee.
