I wish I could give TEN STARS! Been going to Berolina's Bakery for many, many years. Couldn't recommend more highly. Their pastries are wonderful! My particular favorite is the chocolate eclair. I could eat them every day. Enjoy!

my neighbor gave me half a Christmas Decorated Princess Cake with raspberry filling. It was very delicious not too sweet and not dry at all! yummy and pretty

Best bakery ever. Reluctant to post a 5 star because you all will just come and crowd me out.

Everyone loved the princess cake! NOT a critique, but my only suggestion would be to please post allergy information on the website. We had two kids at the party who couldn't try to cake because of nut allergies. The bakery was closed by then, so our only hope was the website.

Nestled in the heart of Glendale, Berolina Bakery is a delightful gem that embodies everything one loves about a quality small-town bakery. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by the warm, comforting aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries--a sensory invitation to indulge in the art of European baking at its finest. Berolina isn't just a bakery; it's an experience. The cozy atmosphere, paired with the friendly and attentive staff, makes every visit feel like catching up with old friends. The owners, Anders and Youna Karlsson, have poured their Swedish and Belgian heritage into every corner of the bakery, ensuring that authenticity and tradition are at the heart of every bite. You can sense their dedication to quality and community with every perfectly baked loaf, flaky croissant, and vibrant slice of their iconic Swedish Princess Cake. What sets Berolina apart is its unwavering commitment to quality. Every item on the menu--from artisan breads to sandwiches crafted with house-made bread--reflects their passion for excellent ingredients and thoughtful preparation. They never cut corners, and it shows. Even in challenging times, Berolina has remained a beacon of support for its community, sourcing local ingredients and offering essential baking supplies when others couldn't. In a world of shortcuts, Berolina Bakery stands tall as a testament to craftsmanship and care. It's not just a place to grab a pastry; it's a cornerstone of the community, where every bite tells a story of love, tradition, and dedication to doing things the right way.

I can't believe I've lived in the area for this long and have only tried Berolina Bakery for the first time recently! I came with my grandparents and we loved the sandwiches. The price is unbeatable given the insane cost of going out to eat these days. About $8-10 per sandwich. We enjoyed the pastrami panini, cold turkey sandwich, and brie panini. Highly recommend the rosemary bread for the paninis. Would love if they made a vegan tofu or chickpea sandwich! We sat outside under the shade. Fortunately found a good parking spot but it got crowded later on a weekday around 2 pm. My only complaint is that the food took a while to come out, maybe 25-30 min. Glad to see that they had a steady stream of customers though.

Ordered ahead for their signature Swedish princess cake. It's a sponge cake with raspberry jam, whipped cream and vanilla custard. The outside is covered in a green marzipan fondant. We ordered for pickup in the morning for a lunch birthday but we got a call the evening before that the cake was ready. We weren't able to call in as their phone asks us to email. We stopped by the next day to pickup. It was quick and ready to go. However the lettering was a little off perhaps the heat melted some of the piping. Parking is available on the street and there was a good number of people enjoying their Saturday morning outside on the tables.

The Crookie! What's that? It's the latest IG/Tik Tok craze has made it's way from Maison Louvard in Paris to LA. Basically a butter croissant with chocolate chip cookie baked on the top and stuffed with cookie dough in the middle. I just had to try one! Just happen to be strolling in south Ocean View, Montrose by chance since I was in the area doing errands. Walked in and I was surprised to see "The Crookie". The lady in front of me was trying to convince me to get the Bammsugare Vacuum which is what this place is known for as well as the Swedish Princess Cake. My mind and tummy was focused on "The Crookie". Those other two items are old news. This combo makes for a great family: Flakey butter croissant married to chocolate cookie with baby cookie dough inside. For $5.99, this thing was dense and full of good calories. Berolina is somewhat tucked on the south end of Montrose which is sometimes forgotten. Worth a drive down Ocean View Ave towards this way to enjoy the small time mid Century feel. Great to support the great local family businesses down here.
