5 Best Bakeries near Crystal River

“I purchased a Lemon Meringue pie and a Pumpkin Streusel pie from this pie shop for Thanksgiving, and both were exceptional. The lemon meringue had the perfect blend of sweetness and tartness with a beautifully fluffy topping. But the Pumpkin Streusel pie was truly unforgettable—creamy, warmly spiced pumpkin filling layered under a crisp, buttery streusel topping. It was absolutely delicious and is now my new favorite pie. This shop clearly puts so much care into their baking. I’ll definitely be returning!“

“Amazing reviews from the employee I gifted this cake to. They plan to use queens for their wedding now.“

“Amy’s on the Avenue is an absolute hidden gem in Crystal River and a must-go spot for breakfast! You can really tell the care that goes into each item, especially the baked goods. The highlight was when Joe came out with a tray of fresh cinnamon rolls straight from the oven… unreal. On top of the amazing food, the entire staff made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in. Friendly, cozy, and delicious — this place is a must go place!“

“The glazed croissant is amazing! We stopped to get a box before heading back to Alabama.“

“FANTASTIC ice cream, super awesome staff and under new management so they are always open during the hours they say they are opened now. I will ad that the decor is super cute, come stop by and bring the kiddos and grandkids. The owner also owns Follow that Dream Day Care which has a great reputation for care for the kids.“
