State Flour Bakery

Absolutely stunning sourdough bread, and worth every penny. We order their cheddar and jalapeño sourdough at least 3 times a month, and have developed a subtle addiction to its deliciousness.Their pistachio croissant is also amazing, as is every other baked item they offer.Definitely do your taste buds a favor and check this place out.

I've been following State Flour Bakery on Instagram for a while now, but only recently was I able to finally stop in and try some of the treats I'd been salivating over for at least a year. And my goodness, these were worth the wait.I'm a sucker for anything sourdough, so they piqued my interest early on with the twist of sourdough croissants. My first order of business upon finally visiting their location was to get my hands on a chocolate croissant, and it was DIVINE... a perfectly flaky texture with a good amount of dark chocolate inside. I will absolutely be ordering this again and again. I also knew I had to try the kouign-amann, which has a caramelized exterior and a sugary (but not TOO sweet) interior. This too was delicious, even after I tried it a full day later.When I saw they had just one bacon cheddar scone left, I knew I had to grab that for my husband... and let me tell you, this thing is GIGANTIC. We split it for breakfast the next day and it was delicious and very filling. The bacon was a nice, thick, crispy slice (it reminded me of the bacon from Wright's), and the scone as a whole was quite flavorful.Now I just need to find the time to get back down to South Tampa so I can try their s'mores croissant, since I am powerless to resist pretty much anything s'mores :)

When finding available parking was impossible at the Hyde Park Sunday market this morning, I popped over to State Flour Bakery in south Tampa for some of our brunch essentials instead! After all, the previous times I've tried the offerings from this deliciously good business, it was during their pop-ups at that market, so it seemed like the right time to finally check out their brick and mortar. The bakery is in south Tampa, and it had a small parking lot with easy parking available mid-morning on a Sunday. The inside was very simple, with just a table containing the days available baked goods. I picked up my previous favorites that I had tried during past markets: the guava croissant and pistachio croissant. Each are beautifully baked with stripes of colorful pastry and are filled with delicious creams. They are huge and decadent and were a massive hit at my family brunch.Just so you aren't caught off guard - they aren't cheap. The pistachio croissant will run you $10 and the guava is $8. But the quality of the ingredients, the beauty of the bake, and the unmatched flavors are well worth the price tag. Plus, you get to support a pretty awesome local business.

Love this cute local bakery. It is small inside but all of their pastries and breads are fresh and so delicious. Be sure to get there early because they do run out of things quickly. Everything I have tried here has been delicious. Every time I go I try to have something different, especially their seasonal items. Can't wait to go back.

Love this place. The owners are the sweetest. We were one of the OG customers and used to buy up all of their sourdough to bring home & freeze as we don't live close. We can also credit them with introducing us to Kouign-amanns. So delicious! Unfortunately we can never get over there early enough before they sell out anymore. Which is amazing for them! So happy this place has really taken off. It deserves it.

Amazing tastes and the best flaky pastries I've ever had. Try the pistachio croissants. Epic!!

Chocolate Croissant: 2 bars of chocolate that melted in my mouth combined with a beautiful exterior. This one was so pretty Pistachio Croissant: A plain croissant filled with a pistachio cream and coated in crushed pistachios. The flavor wasn't too strong, and it was sweet at the same time. The only reason I gave it a 3 star and not more is because I'm not a huge pistachio fan BUT I still highly recommend it.Butterscotch Creme Brûlée Croissant: Although I feel the brûlée didn't add too much to the experience it did make the pastry look cute, BUT THAT CREAM. Sooo buttery, just the right amount of cream and not too sweet! I could eat that any time of day and maybe have 2 at a time Almond Croissant: I love the amount of almonds put into this one. Not too much and not too little. The flavor was spot on without the almond being too overwhelming. This has been my favorite almond croissant in Florida so far. The only reason it isn't a 5 star is because I like my almond croissants a little more on the crunchy side.Overall review: I came in around 10 am, and they still had everything on their menu in stock which I thought was pretty lucky! This was a cute local spot, and I can definitely see myself coming here every weekend for a quick bite to start my day. I was greeted by a very friendly associate who explained everything on the menu to me (even though I did a bunch of research the night before lmao). I was told that they specialize in fresh sour dough bread and they actually use their sour dough starter in their croissants as well! Each croissant I had was beautiful, flaky and not too sweet. The cream to croissant ratio was perfect. They were consistent in size and looks. I could definitely eat the entire box in one sitting and I almost did, but I had to head to the gym.

Super yummy croissants and pastries!We went on a Sunday around 11am, and most pastries and bread were still available. The employees were super friendly and helpful. We chose to get kouign-amanns and chocolate croissants. Everything so yummy. We ate them in the car, but I'm sure they would be amazing warmed up in the air fryer. Overall, super yummy local place and will definitely be back!

Ordered Uber eats delivery one chocolate croissant and one almond. Was a little disappointed in the chocolate one as it was burnt and a little dry. Almond croissant was very good, no notes. Overall would come back but try different pastries!

I tried State Flour Bakery for the first time after being told about it and I wished I tried them earlier. They had many different baked goods laid out on display and I wanted to try all of them. I ended up getting the chocolate crossaint and a pastry with blueberry pie filling and cream filling (I forgot the name). I tried the blueberry one right away and it was perfectly flaky and soft with perfect sweetness and creaminess from the blueberries and cream. I tried the chocolate crossaint the next day and heated it up in a air fryer, and it was still amazing. I can't wait to go back and try all their other baked goodsI would recommend getting there earlier in the day. We went around 2pm one day and they were sold out (it says they close at 4pm online), so we went at 11am the next day and they were already out of almond crossaints (I will have to try another time for the almond crossaints haha).
