Cinnamon Works

Cinnamon Works is a must-visit bakery in Pike Place Market. They have the most delicious and huge cinnamon rolls, cookies, muffins, and pies. They also offer vegan and gluten-free options that are equally tasty and satisfying. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity. I highly recommend the vegan maple cinnamon roll, the gluten-free monster cookie, the sticky bun, and the blueberry muffin. They are all mouth-watering and filling. The blueberry muffin was hot and fresh when I bought it, and it had a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. Cinnamon Works is the perfect place to grab a sweet treat and enjoy the aroma of freshly baked goods.

Loved my pecan sticky bun from here, the dough was super light and the cinnamon levels were not overpowering. I also had a drip coffee which was so fresh and nicely roasted. I paid $9 for the bun and the coffee so maybe a little expensive but normal Seattle standards. There is a $0.50 charge for using card.

Gluten free cinnamon swirl muffins are the best (I will be a lifetime costumer) !!! Such a cute location right in pike place market. Lots of gluten free options(monster cookies, muffins, cinnamon buns). Get there early otherwise they sell out in a couple hours! Note: there is an extra charge for using card so bring cash if possible.

Stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon and most of their GF/vegan selection was depleted. The staff behind the counter said I could pre-order for pickup the following day, so I put in an order. They noted that their GF and vegan lemon blueberry scone was a special item, so wanted to ensure I'd be by to pick it up in the morning since I was reserving it. I assured them I'd be in between 9 to 9:30. Came by for their 9 am open on Thursday, but they only had 1 staff member baking/taking orders and ended up opening closer to 9:10. Ended up not having the scones available, which I found a little odd (as you shouldn't be letting customers reserve items the day prior, and then not make them - I was really looking forward to them!). Of the other items I "pre-ordered," all were ready except for their GF/vegan oatmeal raisin cookie, which was still baking. We ended up having to come back twice for them to be ready, and ended up with our full order to take away at 9:55 am. The staff was apologetic about it. The baked goods themselves were good (zucchini, pecan & chocolate chip, GF lemon blueberry, and blueberry muffins). We found them to be sizable and dense, still moist, but not as fluffy as other muffins we've had. The GF/vegan cinna swirl muffin was wonderful in flavour, but quite messy to eat, so definitely needs a plate for the crumbs! I would have preferred a bit more sweetness in the cookie, so it needed a bit more brown sugar in my opinion. Overall, a good spot if you're at the market! They have affordable prices and I do appreciate them catering to dietary restrictions. That being said, they maybe need an online ordering system or better way of informing customers about "pre-orders" so people aren't disappointed to be left empty handed. Would recommend coming by in the morning for a better selection! They do have lines but they move fast, even with only 1 staff member there.
