About Peters' Bakery
Petersβ Bakery is a San Jose institution. The founder, Tony Peters, was born into a poor Portuguese family in San Jose in 1907. When he started grammar school, he couldnβt speak English. During the Depression, Mr. Peters worked for Studebaker during the week, then spent the weekends in San Francisco with his Uncle who owned a bakery there. He learned the business at his uncle's store on Saturdays. His abiding interest was his bakery. For decades, he arrived in the middle of the night to begin the days baking. He always used the best quality ingredients it was something he had to do to fulfill his philosophy. That philosophy was, "If you donβt want to eat it yourself, donβt sell it."

The birthday cake we ordered for our mother's birthday is beyond beautiful! The rose colors are just lovely. I've never seen a burnt almond cake look like this. Thank you, Peter's Bakery!

This used to be my go to place for Apple pie because it was good and cheap and not overly sweet. But that is no longer the case. Apple pie. Not bad Bear claw : was ok. No traces of almond flavor or paste. Tastes more like a danish pastry. Chocolate eclairs: I asked for a custard eclairs, got the whipped cream. Sad. Should have checked before leaving the store.

I was really looking forward to trying this bakery since itβs such a local favorite, but unfortunately my experience didnβt live up to the hype. On a positive note, the service was great. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere, however, could use some improvement β it didnβt feel as polished or inviting as I expected. The biggest disappointment was the cake. It was extremely dry and completely crumbled when sliced. The flavor was very bland, and the frosting was unpleasant and overwhelming rather than complementary. It made the cake difficult to enjoy. I also purchased a berry pie with a custard filling, which unfortunately was just as disappointing. The filling lacked balance and didnβt taste fresh, and the overall texture was unappealing. Given the bakeryβs reputation, I expected much better quality. I hope this was just an off day, but based on this visit, I wouldnβt return for these items.

A very delicious and fluffy burnt almond cake! I came very close to open and there was already a line of multiple people. Prices are reasonable too. Plenty of street parking. $10 minimum for credit card so I also picked up a banana walnut loaf! I cannot wait to try the other pastries too. No indoor seating area or coffee though, unfortunately!
