Coyle’s Bake Shop in Seattle is a warm, neighborhood bakery founded by Rachel Coyle, who set out to create the kind of bakery she always wished existed. Using exceptional local ingredients and refined baking techniques, the shop has become known for standout pastries—especially its beloved croissants. A favorite on the menu, the Victoria sponge cake made with Washington-grown raspberries, captures the heart of Coyle’s approach: thoughtful, skillful, and deeply local.
