50 Best Bakeries in Tampa

“I am a pastry chef which makes me super selective on what I like. I don't want something that just looks amazing, it has to taste amazing as well, so if you have never got a cake from Cakes Plus Tampa you should, i highly recommend them!!! This is the amazing bakery my hubby used for my requested Chopper themed birthday cake! They also made my amazing Super Bowl stadium birthday cake 2yrs ago. Hubby also said they have amazing customer service and loves that you talk directly to Chef Mario Torres every step of the way from ordering to picking up. He has given Chef Mario the theme each time and has been blown away by the results when he goes to pick up. Thank you Chef Mario!“

““Every cupcake and the cookies are fresh and flavorful, and the cheesecake is unbelievably creamy. Highly recommend! 10/10“

“We loved Peach Cobbler Factory so much that we visited two nights in a row! Everything was delicious! I had the Salted Caramel Brownie and cheesecake with the strawberry cobbler topping! Both were absolutely delicious! If you like Peach Tea, you must try their bottles version they sell. It was divine!! The crew is also some of the nicest people we came across. Ms. Sheila and Ms. Tameka were both helpful and have great personalities! They both had us laughing! If you’re in the Tampa area, this is a must try!“

“I just started going here recently and am hooked!“

“We are happy to have a Indian Store to serve the community of Tampa Excellent service and delicious food well served and customer friendly“

“I stumbled across this place from my daughter. We live in Wesley Chapel and take the drive to purchase breads, pizza, fetta cheese spread and several other items from the store. The products are always fresh and worth the drive in. Absolutely love the owners and their products.“

“Absolutely amazing cinnamon buns and cinnamon bun cakes! Great customer service and always fresh, tasty food. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place. I found them at the indie market in st. Pete and I have been obsessed ever since. The best macaroons I’ve ever had. My husband even ordered me an adorable macaroon cake for my birthday. Couldn’t recommend them more!“

“Crumbl never disappoints! The cookies were fresh, warm, and delicious. Also with a great variety to choose from. What really made the experience stand out was the amazing service. Giselle and her team were so friendly, welcoming, and efficient.The store was clean, the service was quick, and the cookies were incredible. Highly recommend stopping by this location.“

“Very good cookies! Not too many crumbls in Tampa so I’m glad this is near me I got every week 😛🍪 Friendly staff and clean store highly recommend! Only problem is that it’s kind of hard to notice from the road but that’s not their fault.“

“Absolutely delicious fresh baked pies, Lebanese desserts, clean inviting. Big thank you to Zahra and Fatima for your hospitality and generosity you ladies are amazing. It’s worth the drive from Tarpon Springs we will be back soon 🇱🇧🙏❤️“

“Fresh bakery, clean environment. Staff was great positive energy. Richard was great 😊 strongly recommend this delicious bakery for your needs“

“Had key Lime pie at Crumps Landing in Homosassa, Fl. Best key lime pie I ever tasted👍“

“Delicious and authentic!“

“Celiac and vegans,listen up! If you are looking for products for those lifestyles or just looking for healthy bread and dessert options this is the place for you. Outstanding variety of breads and desserts. My sincere apologies to the gracious counterman who's name I didn't get,who provided us with samples of their products. While the baklava he gave me was not V or GF (I'm neither) it was love at first bite! Flaky,delicate philo dough covered the tasty walnut filling. We couldn't wait to get home to sample the other goodies we purchased.
The wife said the linzer tart was very good. We both tried the GF Sourdough bread,she toasted,me with just butter. We both agreed the bread was a winner. Next,I had the guava cheese turnover. Flaky,buttery pastry embracing the filling of guava jelly and cheese,another thumbs up👍! The Dubai chocolate cookie was outstanding. This is a delectable product that is not to be hurried through. I let each bite melt in my mouth and the flavor just got better and better.
Go to their website to see the jaw dropping variety of offerings.
I'm already looking forward to my next visit.“

“Best bagels I’ve ever had, and I’ve been eating bagels for many years! There is a slight crunch on the outside and they are soft inside. These will ruin you, you can never enjoy a bagel from anywhere else again. Same with the cream cheese! And the staff is so friendly and make you feel welcome!“

“Gigi made my 50th birthday cake. It was absolutely beautiful and delicious. They did an Amazing job. 🎂🎈🎂“

“I cannot recommend Crembo enough! After going to the gym, this is a great place for a quick bite to eat or a smoothie. On Monday’s they have special dinner menus, and today’s was pizza (3 different types), pasta (2 variations), and a salad option. It’s all homemade and delicious, I highly recommend going for a yummy sit-down OR takeout Kosher meal in Tampa!

Make sure you follow & check their Instagram before arriving, as their hours of operation can differ depending on the day from what is on the website.

BH for a dairy kosher restaurant in Tampa!!“

“Sarah has made beautiful hand-painted sugar cookies for two events, and both times they were a hit! They are works of art AND taste amazing! Her communication is spot on and she even sends pictures of the cookies ahead of time to get you excited about the event. I highly recommend Sarah for your cookie needs!“

“Cute little upscale coffee & pastry shop. I have been at Sucre Table a few times now and I have had a great experience each time I visit. I tried their Salted Caramel Latte, Lavender Latte, Orange Chocolate Latte and classic Vanilla Latte - they are all very tasty. Their croissants are fresh and flaky, my personal favorite is almond, but the chocolate praline is to die for. This place is pricey, but it is located on Kennedy Blvd., so I am sure the rent is insane. I look forward to trying more of Chef Brenda's pastries and cakes in the near future.“

“Their crescent donuts are quite possibly the best dessert I've ever had.“

“Yuset makes amazing and delicious cakes. I also love the guava pastries, get them early before they sell out.“

“So so good and a great selection! The owners are super sweet too! 10/10 recommend!“

“The cakes are delicious and cute! The gift bundles or towers with cellophane and a pretty ribbon are a nice touch for any occasion. They have cute, unique gifts for purchase in the store for most occasions (Easter, mother's day, father's day, birthdays, etc.).
Their customer service is great. I've been to this Carrollwood store on 4 or 5 occasions and each time, the service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious cakes with beautiful presentation. Ordered a Bundt and bundtinis for a baby shower last minute. Nothing Bundt cakes provided excellent customer service and cakes for my same day order. We will return! Love that they sell balloons and gifts as well. Appreciate the convenience.“

“bizcochos y picaderas muy buena 👌👍👏“

“The best colombian ?? bakery in tampa.“

“I absolutely adore this place. The decor is stunning. Inside, there are adorable chocolate chip cookie pillows....so cute. These are the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever tasted. I brought my niece and nephew along, and they enjoyed it. I highly recommend it and will definitely return.“

“These make my Friday ! The cookies are always fresh and delicious.“

“I get bird bread for backyard squirrels and Cardinals They love it! The people there are wonderful. We just stand around and laugh and talk They're so welcoming and they work so hard. $5 for a huge bag of bread You can't beat that.“

“The delicious fresh cheesy breads or my fave GUAVA filled #Roscon & the special PR of the owner & Operator Theresa & her humble husband keeps me returning to this LiL place of comfort ... ..I call in my order and Ms.Theresa serves me with a big How are doing ? & have a good day ... & come again ...Things can't get any better...Now I'm a Top~Star clientele“

“You apple pie was amazing! Will definitely be ordering again“

“Hands on Sweets did an incredible job bringing our dessert dreams to life for our wedding!!! We knew we wanted more than a cake for dessert, and they had SO many options to choose from. Chef Marie was such a joy to work with during our tasting, and helped narrow down the choices to fit our needs. At the wedding, the cake and the assorted desserts both looked and tasted FANTASTIC. We didn’t get to eat any during the wedding since we were so busy, but our venue packages up 2 of each dessert for us to take home. Eating them all week has been my daily highlight! She even managed to create sugar cookies that represented our cats look elegant enough to include in our wedding day. How sweet and special. 10/10. We’ve already decided for our first anniversary we are placing an order to enjoy all of our desserts again!!“

“Thank you Tasty delicious Desserts for your excellent customer service, the best pastry's in the bay, we were your exquisite sweets, kale as well as your decorations make us return daily to consume more and more. Very satisfied with your services and hygiene and attention“

“Great ice cream options. And the dipped cones are a great complement!“

“New Tampa is an excellent place to visit—perfect for spending time with a friend, family, or your pets. They offer a variety of expertly crafted croissants. The coffee is very good, and I highly recommend their iced teas. It is an excellent spot to visit on a Saturday or Sunday morning.“

“Just devoured two savory Colombian empanadas from Mi Patria Bakery and I’m still thinking about them. The outer crunch? Perfect. The filling? Rich, comforting, full of flavor. But the real magic? That little cup of salsa they include. Zesty, spicy, and layered. Dipping the empanada in it somehow made everything more alive. Like it unlocked a bonus level of flavor.

The shop itself smells amazing, like you’re walking into a warm embrace. The energy was upbeat and the service was so kind. The cashier greeted me with rapid, beautiful Spanish (all I caught was pelo azul) before noticing I was struggling and switching to English with a smile.

Whether you're fluent or fumbling through your español, Mi Patria makes you feel welcome. And your taste buds? They’re gonna throw a party.“

“The sweets they sell are delicious! My personal favorite, though, is the tamal in a bowl — you can add various meats as toppings. 👌

💯% Recommended.

They have a wonderful Cuban ambience. Everything is clean and colorful, with great background music.“

“This is, hands down, the best sourdough bread I have ever had. I have been a customer of Sassypants Sourdough for a couple of years now. Every single special occasion with friends or family, I put in a big order.

Every single thing I have gotten has been incredibly delicious. I am a huge fan of English Muffins and get at least a dozen with every order. They freeze for single use beautifully, as do all the loaf breads.

If you have never had sourdough brownies, your life will be changed for the better.

The Rye breads - insanely good. Way up on the fave list. Right up there with the specialty loaves. You haven't lived until you have had a big bowl of spaghetti with the Roasted Garlic, Rosemary & Olive Oil Sourdough loaf.

I was even fortunate enough to receive a centerpiece loaf for Christmas last year, which was all the rage with the family. My family also regularly makes Eggs in the Basket with the plain sandwich loaves. Chef's kiss.

And, to top it all off, the owner is an incredible human and has a true gift. I will be joining the next 101 class, and cannot wait. Shelby is such an absolute delight to be around.

I would give Sassypants Sourdough 100 stars if I could. I am, and will be, a client as long as they are slinging out loaves.

Do yourself a favor, and order today. You will not be disappointed.“

“It is a good Colombian-style bakery, very busy at certain times, the quality is good, sometimes they lack staff to attend to the long line, they have a good variety, the only thing is that you come out smelling of food, fried food and that the place It's big, I don't know why they don't look for a solution to that. It is unpleasant for hair and clothes to catch the strong smell of fried food.“

“When I was first offered one of Homemade Tampa’s cinnamon rolls I said no. Not because I didn’t think I’d like it but I was already pretty full from lunch. Then I saw it and had to try it. I don’t know what you do to make it so delicious. The absolute best cinnamon bun I’ve ever had. I will be placing an order. Thank you!!“

“Great food friendly service.“

“Delicioso y Un Servicio Excelente. Me hacen Mentira como en familia. Gracias Kelly. Para mi tienen un Millon de Estrellas. Bendiciones“

“I found out about Matt’s mid December, I had a chocolate chip cookie and it was out of this world. I was in need of a gift idea for friends and family who live in other states. These cookies are just what I was looking for! I quickly placed 6 orders and all were delivered in plenty of time for Christmas. I ended up getting boxes for local family and friends too. Everyone who received a box commented on how amazing the cookies were. The variety of flavors is fantastic! I will definitely order from this great company again! A warm cookie with a little vanilla ice cream! Chefs’s kiss!“

“This is hands down the best in the Bay. Everything is fresh. Don’t forget to stop in and enjoy real island tings…🇻🇮🇰🇳“

“I LOVE this bread and purchase it at Apna Bazaar on Fowler. It's the closest taste and texture of my Grandmother's recipe and reminds me of my childhood. I now live more than 700 miles from Apna Bazaar and the bakery and can't get it regularly...wish we could get it fresh up here. FAVORITE SYRIAN BREAD IN TAMPA!“

“I’m in Greece. No, not really. We just found the best Greek restaurant ever. It’s called Psomi. My goodness, so delicious. On February 20, our first time here, we had bread basket/psomi bread, le meunier butter, organic extra virgin olive oil, jam, and Greek scrambled with caramelized onion, roasted cherry tomato, creamy feta, grilled baguette. We liked the restaurant so much we came back the next day. We had chicken souvlaki - Greek yogurt brined organic breast, tzatziki, tomato, red onion, stuffed with cut fries, wrapped in a warm pita. Then we came back again on Sunday February 23 for some Greek style breakfast.“

“Stopped by and man this is the best chocolate chip cookie I have ever had!“

“I started going here early this year (2024) for my cuban bread and let me tell you this is the softest cuban bread by far ! there's no comparison to the other bread company that I was going to before I found this place. A must try ten out of ten!“
