Tough Cookie Bakery

When traveling the roads of Texas some of the coolest places are the small towns in between the cities. This little spot in Bastrop was a great discovery. Serious about their desserts and coffee. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. I’d imagine this place packed in summer season. Worth a stop for rest and recharge of coffee and sweets.

Lovely little coffee shop in Bastrop. The staff was very friendly, patient, and helpful. The vibe/ atmosphere is very calm and welcoming. I came here once but other members of my family came a few times over the week we were in Bastrop. The whole menu is vegetarian, with plenty of gluten free and vegan options as well. We ordered a handful of menu items and they were all wonderful- half order of biscuits and gravy, a biscuit with peanut butter and jam, and peanut soup. I also had my usual London Fog with oatmilk and it was perfect. My mom raved about the quiche. Cute atmosphere and some little boutique type souvenirs to buy as well. Will definitely be back!

My vegetarian gf gives them 5! I give them a 5 for trying. I didn't find the food all that great, but I'm also not vegetarian so what do I know? 🤷‍♂️ Seems like in a world of non vegetarian/vegan options this is a shining beacon. The atmosphere is FANTASTIC by the way, love the patio overlooking Neighbors Kitchen, you feel all tucked away and cozy. Would echo what other reviewers said and that they didn't seem very welcoming, but idk, I'm not looking to be friends with my cashiers....all-in-all I'd go back again just for the atmosphere.

When I first moved to the area I Google searched vegan eats and Tough Cookie came up. I was so surprised and excited to find a place my kids and I can find yummy treats! I was not disappointed. This has become our favorite hang out spot and place to go for snacks, treats, coffees and cool, unique gifts and art made by locals! We love the owners and the emoyees. The location is perfect too... a great stop on the way to the park, or from the library. ❤
