50 Best Bakeries in Indianapolis

“I had the most amazingly beautiful and delicious wedding cake. The team was very pleasant and attentive to my needs. Great customer service very knowledgeable as well as quick to resolve issues and very reassurances that our day would be good. Thank you so much for everything!!🥰“

“Stopped into pick up a couple Persian rolls w/Carmel icing. I bought two and the sales lady (who I thought was being nice) said I'll give you one for free. Got home to realize all three were hard as a rock ..straight to the trash. Stop selling stale products. Usually good here ..will think twice about going back.“

“Devil cookies! They are sinfully good! My daughter came home with the biscoff pie, and I ate most of it and then shot back up there the next day and about 4 of them! I love the themed cookies, but the banana bread coookie was not it! It was still like bread. Crumbl needs more centralized locations.“

“The best bakery items I’ve ever had. Always fresh and the quality is unsurpassed.“

“My favorite place love the 🍩“

“We got our dog a CBD treat here. It worked very well to help relax his "new neighbor anxiety" 10/10 recommend We are definitely coming back to treat ourselves to infused goodies“

“It’s truly MADE WITH LOVE! I got the Boule - Healthier Ancient Sprouted Whole Grain and the Pan Loaf San Francisco Whole Wheat. Literally the most amazing, highest quality, and healthiest sourdough you can get. Andy, the baker, is supper kind and helpful. He explains all the steps you need to follow to end up with an amazing bread. I was always struggling finding a high quality sourdough bread (as non of the grocery options are comparable), and I’m glad I found Andy and his home-based business.“

“Boyden's taste is top notch! It reminds me of Rosslyn bakery. They have many wonderful tasting pastries! I especially enjoy their chocolate éclairs! Check them out. You will not be disappointed!“

“Awesome donuts and boba! Always good when I go“

“Again, Leviathan satisfies my cravings😘and this crew is smooth… My new fav, Honey Bunny (iced) is just delicious. The Biscuits and Gravy are wonderful as usual!! And the BrownButter Chocolate Chunk Cookies are the perfect dessert! Of course we had to include a freshly baked Country Loaf for the rest of the week.“

“Stumbled upon their new location in the Stutz Building. Friendly staff and excellent bread, pastries, coffee and gelato!“

“We ordered a “number 6” donut with strawberry frosting & sprinkles, and 5 dozen donut holes for our daughter’s birthday party, and they were AWESOME! 😍 I was worried the big “6” donut might be dry because it is huge, but it was moist and fresh and delicious!!! It was soo pretty and everyone loved it. We might just leave cake in the past and keep getting donuts now! 💖“

“The best chocolate chip cookie I have ever had! And it was gluten free 🤯“

“This was our first time visiting and we will for sure be back!

The coffee was fresh and delicious, but the star of the show was the fresh pastries! Absolutely fantastic atmosphere and I'll be buying some of the fresh bread next time too!

10/10“

“I just discovered this hidden gem and everything about it is fabulous! From the croissants to the cakes to the mini blackberry- apple pie! Will be back to try their breads!“

“literally my favorite place on the planet. I go to Indy just for pie!!!“

“Absolutely delicious. Their croissants are perfectly flaky and flavorful. I just picked some up this morning along with a loaf of sourdough I cannot wait to try! 110% recommend if you’re in the market for pastries!“

“This hidden gem has Delicious fresh bread!!! 😍😋😋😋 . They also offer other variety of foods , tamales , tacos etc 😳 . I will be back“

“Their croquettes, croissants and pastries are a must try, incredible quality for the price.
I got their Choco hazelnut croissant, mango cloud piece for to-go for my recent visit to their store.
Mango cake had a nice subtle fruity flavour to it. Croissant was a decent addition.“

“What a great offering of fresh, delicious, mouth watering goods!
Their sour cream biscuits are amazing, soft inside, crunchy on the outside. I am already dreaming of tomorrow’s breakfast, just some warm butter and ham on these… what a treat!
Their cookies are simply delicious, always fresh. Our favorites: salted chocolate chip and oatmeal maple pecan.
Their food is great, but their customer service is even better! I was just visiting Indy for the weekend and reached out to place an order, as I was badly craving their cookies, not realizing they would be closed today. Jenna picked up my call and even though the bakery was closed to the public, she actually offered to get my order ready. You definitely made my day, thank you so much Jenna!“

“They did a wonderful job on my wedding cake and cupcakes! I highly recommend them for custom cakes! The owner was also able to re-create a Cookie Monster cake! It was beautiful!“

“Absolutely delicious! Friendly service, very reasonably priced!“

“Amazing sweets and incredible expertly designed cakes and cupcakes!“

“Appreciated the chance to partner with Baking for Uganda. Jim made custom cookies for a company meeting that were not only intentionally designed but were delicious. It was fun to hear about the mission behind what they are doing to support others with a big heart.“

“Excelente calidad y sabor en todo el pan que he comprado. Buen precio! Definitivamente lo recomiendo.“

“My place of employment served pies from here today and the pecan pie was THE best I have ever had! Amazing!“

“It’s clean and the pastries are delicious. Establishment looks great inviting confortable great place“

“I purchased some baked goods from Cretia Cakes this past weekend. I thought I was getting a tasty treat for my family but when we bit into this cake I realized that this was something special. Not sure what Chef LaCretia’s secret ingredient is but wow! We will definitely be coming back for seconds!“

“This was by FAR an awesome Breakfast Experience! The customer service was outstanding! There were about 20 customers that came thru the line only waiting a minute or two at most to get their food. I tried the Spinach Cream Cheese, Texas Hot Polish Sausage, and Ranchero and Sausage & Cheese Jalapeño! They were phenomenal choices! Also do not forget the Hot Coffee is was great! Definitely will return and highly recommend making this restaurant that has been here 20 years a stop for great Kolache!“

“Didn’t even make it into the shop! Met Mike on a flight and he gave me some delicious ube cookies! Nice guy with good goals and wonderful baked goods!“

“Absolutely wonderful service (customer-focused product flow), baked goods, and coffee! 150% attention to detail with respect to food allergies and dietary restrictions. I love their cinnamon croissants (yes that is plural) and we tried the ham-cheese biscuits during a long weekend fishing/canoe trip on Griffy Lake and it certainly kept us out of the ‘hangry zone'.

Absolutely loved the 'Stutz' location in downtown Indy.

Quality and Service match their tag line and mission, “BY HAND FROM SCRATCH
Sourdough breads and pastries in the European tradition”“

“Los pasteles para la quinceañera de mi hija estuvo delicioso. Llegaron unas horas más tarde de lo acordado pero no hubo problema. El pastel estuvo muy bueno y rindió bastante para 250 personas. Michas personas pensaron que era artificial. Mil gracias! La foto es del siguiente día. Aparte nos hicieron dos planchas de diferentes sabores.“

“highly recommend NOTHING BUNDT CAKES very delicious well worth what you pay very friendly and polite WONDERFUL customer service 10 out of 10 recommend I will be a returning customer“

“I am very happy with the cakes done by Brenda and Sarah and the staff! Ladies, you are amazing 🤩 you have a wonderful customer service and go above and beyond to make sure you make the customers feel heard. I can not express how happy I am with my cakes. They definitely go the extra mile. We Totally recommend. Pictures in the comments“

“Went on a quest in search for pastries. After a long adventure, we ended up at Bakery Lemus. Large selection. Very tasty and affordable. I want to go back already and I haven't even eaten all my pastries. The staff was very helpful and friendly. I fully recommend. 🍰“

“They best cake super delicious and moist“

“Compramos un pastel y les encantó a todos nuestros invitados! Además el pan está muy rico!!“

“Love the sunflower wholegrain bread - wonderful and healthy!“

“From the service to the pricing—and, of course, the food—everything is top-notch.

We had the pleasure of enjoying it yesterday at the Indy St. Patty’s Parade & Tent Party. The line moved quickly, and AJ greeted us with a smile and a warm welcome. Our food came out hot and fast. I had the Korean beef corndog, while my friends had the Korean banger corndog—both were an easy 10/10!

We were also lucky enough to get the last order of green beignets, which hit the spot after those corndogs. Absolutely delicious! Find out where they will be next and GO!!“

“My dad and I stopped here on a whim the other day and I cannot say enough fabulous things about this place! Not only was the food delicious, but the service and atmosphere were wonderful as well. I've been craving their danishes since I left...needless to say, we'll be back!“

“Great family owned plumbing supply house. Have been using them for over 5 years. Out of all the supply houses in Indy, Winthrop is one of the fastest and most accurate in pulling orders. The environment is always upbeat and the owners are actually pulling orders as well instead of other suppliers where the owners are nowhere to be seen. Love supporting a family owned business over a corporation. Thanks Winthrop Supply!“

“This is the best Fresh Naan shop I've ever been to. Fantastic tasting breads. We always collect fresh Naans when we have a home cooked Curry, they finish the meal to perfection. Great prices and very friendly staff when collecting my telephone orders“

“Their pastries are delicious! Always made fresh daily. Huge variety of pastries and cookies!These took a hit during transportation home. But it doesn't change the flavor. The Bavarian creme pastry has smooth and creamy flavor while not being overly sweet. These donuts are huge compared to name brand donut places. The churros are filled with a raspberry jam (or what I believe is jam). Slightly tart but that what I want in a raspberry jam. The Danish has a glaze that gives the pastry a sweetness to satisfy any sweet tooth. And the cannoli has a sweet cream filling with each end being dipped chopped pecans topped with chocolate sauce. The cannoli itself is crisp. Great contrast of texture. Prices are very reasonable. They also sell cakes, which I look forward to trying someday.“

“The best snickerdoodle cookies I have ever had !!“

“Memories of childhood and visiting my aunt. We always stopped at entenmanns before going home or she would bring it out when she came to visit. Although this location didn't have much (it was late in the day), prices were great, staff friendly and everything tasted delicious.“

“This is a super cute cupcake shop located in downtown Indy! This was my first time stopping in and I was impressed. I visited around 130 pm so parking was not an issue. This is always my concern when shopping downtown. The interior decor is bright & welcoming. The young lady who assisted me was fast & super friendly. I bought 2 red velvet cupcakes that looked moist & delicious. These are a gift for my daughter's 33rd birthday so I'll update once she tries them. By the way they smelled on the way home. Im certain she'll love them & we'll both be back.“

“La Panadería mejor de Indianápolis! Número UNO! #1 Su pastel de tres leches es maximo! Si no es de Alva’s no me invites!🤗🙏🏽♥️😑🥴🎂🍰🧁 #OnlyAlvas El pan dulce más esponjado y sabroso!“

“I ordered a variety gift box to be delivered for my grandpa’s birthday and it was huge hit! He received his beautiful box with card and some finishing touches to make it extra special. He already ate the sweet potato bar and is so happy with his gift. Our Sons goes above and beyond in customer service and their bars are delicious. A wonderful gift for anyone, anytime! We will definitely be ordering again! 💕💕“
