It’s ok but wouldn’t get again. - Edit
Not the best bakery that I’ve tried. Wrap was mostly just potatoes for $10. Cupcake was ok, nothing I’d like to get again.

Good muffins - Edit
We got a blueberry and orange and poppyseed muffins, both really yum and even better the next day.
Read moreThe raspberry oat bar tasted of oil and the berry flavour wasn’t there at all.
Chocolate chip cookie was nice and chewy and very chocolatey.
Pros: Sooo many gf options , Pretty cheap , Yummy muffins
Cons: Sugary on some bakes , Not enough raspberry flavour in the oat bake

Food was delicious - Edit
Wow this place was delicious and the cafe was warm and cozy.
Read moreVery friendly baristas and owner. Mexican hot chocolate was full of flavor and most importantly just the right sweetness (aka not too sweet) Took me back to Oaxaca when I took my first sip
I got the red velvet cupcake. I normally don't go for that but this tasted homemade and I really enjoyed it. It was decorated with a cute sugar axe. The salad I got was full of fresh ingredients. I asked for no olives and they substituted central veggie for me

We were so excited to stumble upon this vegan bakery in Salt Lake City - Edit
We literally stumbled upon this bakery (while charging our electric car nearby) and were delighted when we asked "What's vegan?" and the lovely woman behind the counter replied: "Everything". What brought us into the bakery was that they had a sign for a local Salt Lake City Vegfest in their window. I will say HappyCow needs to mark then as vegan rather than vegetarian. The staff couldn't have been more pleasant. We got the vegan lettuce wraps to go and they were great as well as some baked snacks of course.

Awful - Edit
I've been a City Cakes customer for many years, and I just never learn. Unfortunately, I am forced to go due to my daughter's food allergies. They've made birthday cakes for me that virtually fell apart, had dried out cupcakes or most recently they forgot my order! I drove 45 minutes to pickup a birthday cake for my daughter, that was ordered weeks ago, and when I get there, I was informed they never made it. I have a birthday, and no cake. What did they offer? Pickup one of our leftovers and we'll give you half off. I bid you farewell City Cakes.
Read morePros: Dairy free, Gluten free, Nearby
Cons: Dried out, Orders messed up, Don't get what you ask for

Scones, cookies, Mac n cheese, and so much more! - Edit
So many wonderful vegan options and they’re gluten free so my aunt could enjoy with me! When I got there, they had just put out some cookies and they were so fresh. The prices were super reasonable too in my opinion. People working are super nice and it was a comfortable place to sit down and eat. Highly recommend!!!

Great baked goods, but weak food selection - Edit
We had three baked goods and they were all great. We tried the soup and didn't like it. The food heating setup is with a microwave, so we wouldn't recommend it as a venue for a meal.

Love It!! - Edit
Got the almond poppyseed muffin, pecan sandie, and the chocolate dipped pecan sandie and they were delicious!! I haven't had a almond poppyseed muffin in years and was excited to try this one out and fell in love with the flavour of it. The cookie was perfectly sweet and tasty. Definiently make sure you visit this place.

Yummy brownie and dbl choco cookie - Edit
Wish they had ice cream to go with the brownie. Too many cupcakes. I was hoping for more variety. I was expecting more cakes and pastries. The yummy looking cover photo of that fruit tart wasnt even at the bakery.

cafe mostly offers packaged food - Edit
They must have recently changed their menu and process because the cafe portion is largely a cooler with packaged food. There’s two microwaves staff direct customers to heat up the food (in another container if you don’t like microwaving food in plastic). It all tasted pretty good, but places that specialize in vegan food often care about waste. This place must not because offering food this way is an incredible waste of packaging that likely gets thrown away. Food did taste good, but it was a largely disappointing experience.
Read morePros: gluten feee options, tastes good
Cons: wasted packaging, not great service

took my breath away! - Edit
I’ve only tried the waffles with fruit and the spinach cheeze scone but both blew my mind... I got about 20 dollars worth of things to go too. That goes a long way here. This felt like vegan heaven and was one of the most impressive places I’ve gone to

Delicious!! - Edit
I recently visited City Cakes (twice!). I tried the vegan waffles, sausage & potato burrito and a tempeh chicken sandwich. Plus a cinnamon roll! The staff were all so sweet & helpful. The food was amazing! I took my sandwich to go & it came with me on our day trip to Antelope Island. There are lovely seating areas both inside & outside & clean restrooms. The baking floor is wide open, so you can see the hard at work. There is a small refridgerating section where you can buy pre-made items such as their own vege burgers, or tempeh chicken salad, etc.Highly recommend coming here for breakfast & lunch!!
Read morePros: All vegan!, Amazing food!

WOW, Best in the City! - Edit
I've been in SLC on business for under 24 hours and been to City Cakes twice already. There are baked goods, gluten-free options, space to sit and dine as well as watch the bakers work on their magical vegan creations.
Read moreMac 'n 'cheese' is awesome with these big spiral noodles and orange sauce.
Vegan sausage and cheezy wrap is in a tortilla with au gratin potatoes and that same tasty bright sauce.
I found meringue cookies here...great texture and flavor.
The tiramisu? Oh, MY!! A creamy, fabulous MUST-TRY surprise of a dessert with all the right proportions and flavors.
I love this place, bet you will, too!
Pros: All vegan!, Wonderful food, Wide selection of sweets
Cons: Sausage wrap seems like something could make mysel
