42 Best Bakeries near Highwood

“Everything here is incredibly delicious! I guarantee that anything you try you will love! ☺️ I have been getting my cakes from Gourmet Frog for over 15 years, and from my wedding day to just because I was having a bad day and needed a little treat, it's always a hit! I can't recommend froggies enough! (What I endearingly call them ?)“

“Cutest yummiest cookies… totally worth the visit“

“So glad I tried and continue to enjoy Maria’s Italian Bakery and Cafe! This authentic spot offers wonderful service and excellent quality menu items— highly recommend!“

“This place is a gem! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by how kind and knowledgeable the staff was. The girl who helped me was so sweet, super patient, and explained everything perfectly. You can really tell they care about the customer experience and make sure you feel comfortable and taken care of. Now let’s talk about the lemonades—WOW. Infused and delicious, it was honestly one of the best lemonades I’ve ever had. And the baked goods? Incredible. Soft, flavorful, and just the right amount of kick. Everything I tried was amazing, and I can’t wait to go back and try more. I seriously love, love, love this place. The staff, the products, the vibe—Blazed Bakery is on point. Thank you for such an awesome experience!“

“The bread is out of this world. My personal favorite is the seeded. The pastries are also very good. What a treasure.“

“Friendly staff who do magnificent work!“

“That Little French Guy makes us happy every time we head that way. The Champs de Élysées doesn’t have better! It’s being back in Paris, every unique French delight. Thank you for our favorite place to visit often.“

“I am super excited because they opened a new location near me in Birmingham. MI

Organic and super fresh baked French goods are rare to find! The croissants are so soft inside and crunchy outside😋😋This bakery deserves more than 5-stars. Check them out and you will visit again I promise.“

“Very nice, very friendly store with a great selection of bundt cakes in various sizes. Go and enjoy, you deserve it...“

“My company, Epiq Solutions, ordered a custom cake to mimic one of our products. We are an engineering company, so this is no easy task. Central Continental nailed it with the look and the taste! Well done, and thank you!“

“We love these cookies! The chocolate chip is always a family favorite but we like the fun of the variety too. Curbside or delivery service are a huge plus!

Vegetarian options: Dessert!

Parking: Huge lot. Dedicated spots for curbside service.

Kid-friendliness: Nowhere to eat inside. But the flavors are always exciting for the kids. Especially the extras like shark gummies.“

“What can I say: the bakery, food, and drink offerings here are outstanding and the owner is incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about what she's doing.

You really can't go wrong with any of the grab and go cake, cupcake, or pastry items. We've gotten many of them, and we've also gotten special order cakes from here that have been wonderful. Their breakfast burritos (vegetarian or not) are a great quick breakfast option. The quiches (which are relatively new) are exceptional. The hibiscus agua fresca is a lovely refreshing drink for a hot day.

I hope this place stays here for a long time because its popularity has added liveliness to the Roger Williams area.“

“Nice and tasty and a great gluten free option“

“Their pan dulce is AWESOME!!! This is the only bakery I go to get pan dulce! I know the owners are they are very sweet. However lately the workers they have are a bit unprofessional. On the phone and having loud conversations. Product wise, the bread, LOVE IT!!!!!“

“Mollys is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Dori and GM Dritan and Avrielleas and Brooke are very nice. Amazing cupcakes. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Great place for finding a gift or sweet treat! They do have coffee -- I just haven't tried any. I usually get lost in the merchandise because it is so interesting and varied - and not overly expensive! You can't help but buy a gift or two for yourself as well.....“

“These aren’t just cookies! They are a MEAL😊 Kudos to Carol’s Cookies for creating masterpieces!“

“absolutely delicious!!!!!!!!“

“My daughter and I often have lunch next door and then come over here for treats. The baked goods are absolutely fresh and delicious, and the prices feel like you’re stealing. The staff are all sweet and kind as can be. If you’re looking for a great panaderia with a wide selection of tasty products at incredible prices, you won’t do better than Lupita’s. Highly recommended!“

“We absolutely loved working with The Baking Institute! Not only was the dessert stunning but it was also incredibly delicious. Our couple couldn’t stop raving about how much they loved it! The design perfectly matched the vision and overall aesthetic, and the flavors were spot-on.

The team was also wonderful to coordinate with, responsive, professional, and so clearly passionate about what they do. We’d happily recommend them to any Chicago couple looking for a beautiful and memorable wedding cake or dessert display!“

“Haven't been here in years! Got some tasty sandwiches and sweets today! Everything sill fresh and always beautiful in here. Lots of options!“

“The pastries and deserts they have are great. It’s a good balance of sweetness for the desserts, and a good balance of savoriness for the pastries. The prices are just great too, for 4 pastries, and 1 drink I paid just over $20. Usually it would come out to $30+ at other places.“

“Sales rep who helped me was very friendly and helpful. Very personable service!!! Highly recommend❗️❗️❗️“

“As a busy working, traveling mom, I was trying to plan my precious daughter’s sixth birthday party when I was out of town and was in a bind because I didn’t order a cake I envisioned in advance. The bakery called me back promptly as I was sitting at the airport in Boston, I sent over a picture of the unicorn cake I envisioned, and they had it ready along with 2 dozen cupcakes that day! Also ordered their butter cookies and the broffee and it was all a huge hit with our guests. Thanks again for coming to the rescue. My daughter and her friends absolutely fell in love with the magical unicorn cake.“

“Huge thank you to Cindy! My baby was sleeping in the car and I didn’t want to wake her. I paid over the phone and cindy ran it out to my car. Great service!“

“The best Ube Pandesal, the bread is smooth, the filling is unique, well blended flavor. The Ensaimada is moist and soft. The ube on top is to die for! Hindi minadali ang pagkagawa...It’s made with love! 😍 Highly recommended!“

“Delicious. I have never tasted something more scrumptious. I love the workers. They are my true friends. They get me, they are there for me, and they see me on my worst and best days. I make it my life goal to go everyday just to see them. They know me by name. 10/10. Love it here.“

“Very good recipe and good taste.“

“Amazing find! Worth the drive. Been wanting to find/try a vegan bakery. Had seen this store come up when searching for options. Today made the drive there. So worth it!!! Choc Chip scone is delicious; good texture, plenty of chips and excellent tasting. Also purchased cinnamon roll. After heating, just incredible! Frosting super delish, dough was great. Anxious to go back, would like to try cupcakes, empanadas and pie. Store is super cute!!! Also, the owner/manager was at an event, not at store today. However, family member there (Mom I think). What a sweet, kind, friendly professional “filler in”. Service is everything!“

“Just popping on here to say I really like this Crumbl location! I’ve been a big fan of Crumbl for about 4 years now and this location always has consistently great treats. The employees at this Vernon Hills Crumbl are always friendly. I’ve had some nice, light-hearted experiences during order pickup, and they’ve always been efficient and professional, too. I’m easily giving them 5 stars — without hesitation!“

“These ladies saved the day! I had a horrible experience with another shop and called them in a panic! And not only were they polite and kind to me, they went above and beyond to meet my needs! Would recommend ! 10 out of 10!! Special thanks to Christy!“

“Milk Pillow Bread! I have not tried any of their beverages, but will return here frequently for the exquisite fresh breads and pastries. Red Bean Paste donut, Yuzu and Guava pastries, Honey Cheese Mochi Pancakes, and the Cranberry Cream Cheese are some of my favorites!“

“Chicken and Waffles!!!! Now that there’s a loyalty program I’m going to bring more friends there.“

“We stumbled upon this cozy Mexican bakery in a strip mall. Easy to miss because signage is only on window, but it's near La Presa next door to the Smoke Vape Shop. Pleasantly surprised to see the array of pastries, breads, and cookies. Everything looked delicious and very fresh!“
