Wagner's has a stall at the Farmer's Market, so a fun treat is to stop by and grab one of their delectable pastries. The almond horns are delicious: crispy on top with sliced almonds and the almond paste is soft. Goes great with a latte.

I live in a town near Olympia and accidentally discovered Wagner's some time ago. Today was another fun experience. Went to buy someone a birthday cheesecake and my kiddo wanted something too. So much to pick from he had a hard time - the pacman ghost cookie, brownie, crazy cupcake, other dessert breads you see nowhere else... he picked traditional... More

A perfect place for breakfast or lunch in Olympia. Friendly, accommodating staff. If you can't find something here you like you might want to go to McDonalds because you have no taste!

I was hoping this bakery would include more items then your usual cupcake, cake, cookie, and pie place. I was kind of disappointed it wasn't more original. Little bit more costly than average. May try it again later.

I got the Danish and Coffee special and was pleasantly surprised how good both were. Had to get another Danish and refill before we left. Will always try and stop by this place whenever I come through Olympia. Reminded me of Europe but of course with that American sweet tasting pastries. Tip: If you are used to the European bakeries,... More

This is the third time I have been to this bakery. It is a great place to sit and eat a sandwich or to take out. I can't even begin to describe the wonderful, fresh pastries and cakes. I took home a chocolate cheesecake for a birthday and it was a chocolate lovers dream! I will be back!

Best bakery in Olympia. Great lunch as well. Staff is very friendly, salads and sandwiches are great. Homemade soups everyday. Reasonable price. I go regularly for lunch during the week.

I go for special occasions and when company is in town. I go by at the least once a month. I will keep going. I have never heard a thank you or been given a smile from staff. They are not outright rude but they ignore you or stare at you as you make your selections. It's either a type... More
