Stork’s Bakery & Coffee House

I don’t leave reviews often, but this place is awesome. Everything we ordered was delicious. The bakery is unbelievable. I wish I lived in Florida so I could make this a weekly event.

This is a best place for breakfast in Fort Lauderdale, maybe in a whole Florida.
Try the Caprese sandwish for breakfast with extra oilive oil!
This will make your day.
Seriously, this is a great place. coffee would be better, too much water, but still Stork’s desrves 5 star! Thank you guys!

I come to this place for coffee and dessert, I get the apple crumb pie which is perfecto everytime. Dear husband ordered chocolate pie and loved it which says alot cause he usually doesnt eat sweets.
I had the snickerdoodle coffee… delicious.
I am planning and looking forward to breakfast and lunch here which I will review later. The place is kept very clean. Waitstaff has been pleasant both times.
They have a case of cakes, pies and cookies to choose from as well as ready made deli salads.

Great place to meet for coffee, lunch, or dinner. Atmosphere is very warm and friendly! The dessert counter looks delicious! I can’t wait to try the red velvet cake! Had dinner here tonight and both the food and service was top notch! I highly recommend!

Great place to go for a late night dessert! Nice atmosphere to sit inside or outside. Their coconut cream pie is amazing!

Stork’s has been a staple of the Wilton Manors landscape for many years, and there is good reason. As a bakery, it’s pretty much near the top of the heap with beautiful (and tasty) cakes, cookies and pastries it is a sugar addict’s downfall. In addition to their baked goods they also have a fairly large menu of lighter entrée and sandwich items should you desire something that won’t make your blood sugar explode.
We decided to try the Champagne Cheesecake and a Chocolate cheesecake. Both are exquisite. The Chocolate is very very dense, much like a chocolate torte, the champagne cheesecake is «lighter» in texture much like a traditional cheesecake.
As a coffee shop, Stork’s isn’t as comfortable as other coffee centered places, no couches or cushy arm chairs, but still comfortable with a nice sized patio for those lovely South Florida evenings.
We don’t come here often, but when we do we always wonder why we don’t.

This is such a great place whether you’re running in for just a quick coffee or a dessert or lunch they have all these options available. Their staff is very friendly and always talkative. The coffee shop is extremely clean and well displayed. The desserts are set up in a glass case so you can see exactly what you would like. The coffee is freshly brewed and made in front of you along with all of the sandwiches and wraps. The best part of storks is, you can either sit comfortably at one of the tables inside or you can sit outside and cozy up with a nice breeze with their outdoor seating. The prices are reasonable, parking is usually never an issue and it’s nice to support a non-​chain coffee shop/​bakery/​lunch. I believe on Sundays they have endless mimosas but don’t quote me on that one but I remember coming here and having quite a few. Maybe I just ordered like 20 who knows with me;) One last thing they do have Wi-​Fi service so if you need to hop on your computer then you can come here & enjoy coffee and use your computer with their free Wi-​Fi. I encourage everybody to check out storks.

I enjoy this place, probably stop in at least once a week and will continue to do so. Nice ambiance, comfortable hangout good food … bad experience with their pumpkin pie today though. Way too dense, and the crust tasted like it had been freezer burned. I’ll be avoiding that in the future!
UPDATE: spent the day sick in bed after the dubious pumpkin pie. Had to remove a star accordingly.

Probably the best independent bakery in FtLauderdale/​Wilton Manors. The food and baked goods are 4 ½ stars. My main issue with them is that they do not wipe the tables down after people eat there, which causes crunbs etc to be left on the table. I do not like to have to wipe a table with a napkin as there is no way to get a table sanitized with a dry napkin. Tables should be wiped when someone leaves with some type of detergent to control germs.

I love this little place. Being from Las Vegas we always try to find places off the map. Parking is slim, but seems like every where is like that. I enjoyed a nice coffee and breakfast sandwich which was amazing. We sat outside, where there were plenty of chairs :) everything was rly nice

Great customer service, real smiles, quick and friendly. Terrible key lime pie, artificial everything. The body of the pie, soggy no real flavor, tasted like it was made from a mix. Whatever the white frosting or whipped product to garnish was grosa, inedible.
Coffee selection from the drip carafes was a pleasent selection, but the robustness of the coffee itself was weak and limp.
ginger snap cookie, looks amazing, beautiful cookie like for a magazine shoot. All of the cookies look beautiful in the jars. Taste is mediocre with a hint of shortening.
Atmosphere is 5 stars. Great outdoor seating, very comfortable and cozy, yet limited inside area. Chairs are comfortable for long hours of sitting and chatting with friends and loved ones.
Fun to visit, but would look elsewhere.

I like a lot of things at Stork’s and a few things that I don’t. The food here is good to great but the desserts are hit or miss. I love the honey bars but feel that most pies and cakes are so-​so. The whole staff is great. The ambience in this place is very laid back and friendly so it makes up the not so great areas. I love the ice teas here. This restaurant is also not visible from the street, only the avenue next to it so keep that in mind and during high traffic times you may have to park in the gravel area. They offer outdoor seating as well as inside (not too many tables). Strangely enough they also offer doggie treats. Baklava is slap your mama good. Experiment and see what best suits you, there’s always a great selection and refills on drinks seems to be standard.

Nice coffee with spectacular fresh tea. The quiche looks delicious so we order two to go since we are full. Will be back for more joes here. The place is very clean and well managed. I highly recommend it

One of the cooler coffee shops I’ve been to. Their pastry selections are ample, the place is big with an enormous outdoor patio and a really cute little gazebo (it’s across the parking lot). The parking is limited, so at busy times, it’s hit or miss.
The reason I don’t give it five stars is because the tea selection is largely fruit and herbal selections. Those are fine, but those of us who are true tea drinkers like a good, strong, black tea. They have one. That’s hardly a selection. And a decaffeinated black tea for the evening would be a great addition.
It’s nice to have an alternative to the major chain coffee shop, but if the selection isn’t there, what is the reason for me to return? Increase the tea selection and I’ll revisit this review.

What a great smelling shop. Who can resist sweet pastries cakes and the smell of coffee. .I know I cant. I grabbed salmon and roasted beets and sweet potatoes for dad and I had a lemon bar .Mike l had a slice of the strawberry rhubarb pie. Everytime we always ordered cakes to go this is my first time eating here. Thanks Unilocal for the 10% off as my check in order! The restaurant has a really European feel with flowers that grace the ceiling on a ledge. they have outdoor patio seating too and bottomless mimosas sat and sun for just 15 bucks. Really nice cozy dessert spot. I will be back. The lemon bar is really delicious and custardy with a hint of lemon which makes the bar tangy and creamy. I love it.

***UPDATE AND INCREASE IN STARS: as stated previous, I will note that the German Chocolate beans was out of this world! Super bold and smooth and so rich w/​o being too sweet. The Sumatra was great as well but just can’t compare***
I walk in and go to the array of coffee bean dispensers (oddly the 1^st thing I spot where it is almost hidden to the right). Coffee fanatic over here so stars were in my eyes. It was so hard to choose. From Hazelnut to Organic grounds from Peru. They are $ 16 a pound. I opted for the German Choc and the Sumatra (will be noting on them once I try at home). They do have a grinder available. I will note shamelessly (since I ended up buying the beans even after noticing this) that the inside of the dispensers themselves looked as if the last time they were cleaned was in Cleopatra times.
I ordered the iced latte (only comes in 1 size for $ 3.75) and a medium hot latte for my mom ($ 3.25) Ladies and gentleman, I give you the rich flavor of water and BPA plastic. But no, really, it tasted like the plastic cup itself told its soul to the devil and became one w/​the coffee. I even put 3 brown sugar packets and no luck :/​
Now, for the sweets, I bought my mom and myself a chocolate chip cookie and we both agree – crunchy outside but very soft inside, recommend it! I was expecting a lot more pastries and danishes but it was mostly cakes (which I can’t lie, they looked delectable) and a lot more lunch items. Oddly, I did see some, like the tuna salad being out and very exposed inside the display, which I can see why Unilocalers felt their goods were not fresh. The only pastry that looked «the most» appealing was the blueberry Danish, but even that was just to try. The blueberry filling itself just reminded me of jelly in a jar; no true texture to it. My mom noted her latte was good, not great.
The associate that rung me up had the 1^st impression of super peppy, wanted you to walk out smiling. But out of nowhere, became flustered. Didn’t even ask me if I wanted sugar in the coffees. He even told the customers behind me «wait, wait» when he was keeping up with their order. He seemed easily overwhelmed that it even made me uneasy, but I surely wouldn’t call it «bad» service. The young man behind the counter was very attentive and had a great sense of urgency.
Luckily when it comes to coffee shops for me and trying them for the first time, if I was dissatisfied, I would come back to try another coffee, and with that said, that would be the ONLY thing I would try if I were to return.

I should rename this place Bakery and Coffee house on crack. I was in a Sweet tooth kind of mood, so happy that I came to this place to fix that problem. The array of desserts that are available to you are incredible so here is an example of their lovely selection:
1. White Chocolate Pistachio Cheesecake
2. Kahlua Marble Cheesecake
3. Carrot Cake
4. Chocolate Fudge Cake
5. German Chocolate Cake
6. Red Velvet Cake
7. Bread Pudding
8. Brownies
9. Biscotti
10. Almond Croissants
I decided to order the Lemon Bar for Dessert and a Pomegranate Unsweetened Ice Tea. All I know this combination on a Saturday afternoon. The Lemon Bar was the perfect amount of Zing and Sweetness. I decided to sit outside to enjoy the weather and the view. If you are a coffee lover, this is also a good place to grab a nice cup of coffee. This place is pretty much an upscale coffee house. I was sad to leave this place because I knew I had to head back to Orlando, but at least know where to go the next time I am in the Fort Lauderdale area.

Great place for coffee, a quick bite or a sweet snack. The servers are friendly, the coffee is fresh and there are plenty of options for food and drinks.
Best part is that the coffee shop has a mini-​terrace in the back which means you can enjoy your coffee and snack while enjoying the view and summer sun.
I would recommend this place if you need to quickly pick-​up something to go or if you want to stay and hang out (read: coffee date).

What a great place! We had dinner on the drive and did not care for anything on the dessert menu so we looked on Unilocal and discovered this place and that it was open until midnight.
We ordered a Honey Bar, lemon white chocolate tart (which was absolutely amazing), a coconut cream pie, and a merengue. Everything was so good.
I am definitely looking forward to coming back to try some other items on the menu.

After eating at the Grilled Cheese Co. my friend who is local to the area took me to stork and what a treat it was. I had the Sumatra coffee, the double fudge brownie and the honey bar. My friend got a salad and everything was amazingly good. The baked goods were awesome and Chris behind the counter was super friendly and helpful.
I would highly recommend this place!
