Tough Cookie Bakery

This place has some delicious gluten free pastries. I've tried the raspberry oatmeal bar and it was delicious. Also tried the house chai, and unfortunately that was not as good. The flavor was mild and I could mostly taste milk & water with a hint of chai. There was plenty of outdoor seating and the barista was friendly.

The service, product and location are topnotch. Will definitely be back.

ridiculously nice and friendly staff that make you feel right at home :) food is too good for words, you just have to experience it yourself! and unlike other gourmet vegetarian places the prices are really good! the atmosphere here is very homey and rustic and cute and i love spending time here, they also sell crafts from local artists. 5 million points to house tough cookie!

Good food for being vegan, but definitely not as good as a regular bakery. Just tried 5 different things from here and none of them were as good as a high end regular bakery. Also they definitely go out of their way to force their veganism on you. I would eat here again of I had to, but not if I could avoid it.

I love this place! It's a great place to get some delicious vegan foods & dessert, but they have non-vegan items as well. The staff are all really nice down to earth people and there's a little play kitchen area for small kiddos. The covered porch offers nice seating in good weather too.

Thank goodness for Tough Cookie! They’re so cute and right along the river in a cool little lot worth exploring. Great for kids or big groups or just sitting by yourself. The vegan food is delicious and fun! Pretzel brauts are definitely a must try!

Tough Cookie is an absolute gem in Bastrop. They have delicious coffee, meals and desserts with plenty of excellent gluten-free and vegan options. It's obvious they put a lot of love into what they do and the space they've created. Highly recommended!

WOW WOW WOW!!!! I attend CRCA high school in bastrop and I always love to walk here and get some great food! I have always loved everything they offer especially the mango fizz 🥭 drink. Every experience I have ever had at this place has been filled with kind people and great food. 10/10 food and 10/10 staff. Love this place so much!!!

Great staff, they remember your order, like "Cheers"!

This is a bakery that happens to offer coffee. We enjoy visiting smaller towns and eating local and trying local coffee shops. We ask for their recommendations as we tend to be surprised and impressed. Not this time. Slow drip was subpar for my spouse. I’m a little different as I don’t like the taste of coffee. Typically the person will offer a secret concoction. Disappointed that the recommendation was either a latte or mocha.

For coffee, I would choose elsewhere. For GF or vegan pastries, I’m confident it would be good.
