50 Best Bakeries near Merriam

“This is my favorite place for Povitica. My absolute favorite is the cream cheese with the apple cinnamon coming in a close second. Absolutely love their original coffeecake!! Psst! Mom might like the coffee cake for Easter, mother’s day, Christmas… in other words Mom will love it!!

Not sure which to buy? One awesome thing about Strawberry Hill is that they have samples of their bread so you can pick your favorite!

Several of their specialty breads are seasonal so be sure to check back! Check out their pumpkin in the Fall! Super friendly staff and they also ship!

Their povitica is also sold in smaller loaves that they can ship, so might be a good choice for any holiday gifts!“

“Hook’’em up is the best in the world!!!!!!!“

“I LOVE this place! The cookies are not only delicious, but each one looks like a work of art. Staff is super-friendly, too. I accidentally placed a duplicate order online, and they were able to refund me right over the phone. I didn't have to come in and sort it all out. Wonderful!“

“Absolutely beautiful desserts that taste heavenly. The owner was very kind and personable!“

“Went today and bought 3 different kinds of treats and they were all so delicious, especially the coffee tiger roll! Can’t wait to come back. 💙“

“I went , ate …. Died from joy …. Picked myself up and will definitely come back ! WOW utterly delicious ! Its grab and go i was hoping to sit … but very well worth it🔥“

“I live out of state and found Ashleigh’s Bake Shop. They do a fantastic job of baking my parents favorite pies, which are sour cream raisin and lemon meringue. Highly highly recommend them!“

“Absolutely phenomenal wedding desserts – flawless from start to finish!
Having Kate Smith Soirée as our wedding dessert vendor was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we got engaged we knew we wanted her desserts, and the entire experience lived up to every expectation. The desserts were stunningly beautiful, incredibly delicious, and executed exactly as we envisioned. Every single guest raved about them throughout the evening. The display was elegant, the variety of flavors was outstanding, and Kate and her team handled every detail with complete professionalism. Could not recommend more highly!“

“I was beyond pleased with my wedding cake! It was BEAUTIFUL, FLAVORFUL, MOIST and everything I imagined it to be! And very reasonably priced might I add! Jaresha is also very professional and responsive. Cake-a-Boo has my ever lasting recommendation.“

“I usually have bad experiences with restaurants and shops, but this place is a place to remember as the room feels like you're walking into heaven for cookies and more. AMAZING customer service and kept really clean inside and outside really makes you feel welcome. And the cookies are made just the way you order them. Makes me feel happy!“

“Beyond impressed! My boyfriend's favorite dessert is a key lime pie. He has a son that has a gluten and dairy allergy and his one request for his birthday this year was a key lime pie that he could share with his son. That was not an easy task to locate. Even though it is not something they offer on their menu, Mud Pie Bakery was willing to do a special order for a gluten free, dairy free key lime pie and I must say, we were blown away! It was delicious! The crust was delicious, the filling was tangy, and the whipped topping was sweet and balanced everything else out! Not only that, but it looked beautiful! The best part is that my boyfriend's son got to enjoy a sweet treat that the rest of the family was having and that is something that rarely happens, due to his dietary restrictions! Thank you, Mud Pie, for doing this for us and for being so kind and accommodating!“

“I ordered the BLT - it was amazing! It was the largest sandwich I've ever eaten, had high qualities ingredients, and all of the textures and flavors were to die for!“

“The owner is so nice! We got to sample a matcha drink, vanilla cake, shortbread and the cheddar/chive biscuits, all so good! Highly recommend.“

“Love this place! Great Brazilian desserts and foods.“

“We had the fixed price lunch menu. There are many excellent choices for the main dish, two side dishes accompanying it, and dessert. I chose French Onion soup and the arugula salad with pecans, accompanied by Andre's in-house-made dressing. The main course was a fall harvest quiche with potatoes and apples, a locally made goat cheese, baked on a flaky crust. Wowie! Filling, hearty, and beautiful. I finished with a raspberry or strawberry fondant, over alternating layers of crisp pastry and a sweet, creamy filling! Amazing. And that is a generous dollop of fresh whipped cream on the side!“

“The store and employees are top notch. We got the Resses Brownie this time and my husband and I were disappointed. We thought it was dry and didn't live up to expectations. But, we love Crumble Cookies 🍪 They have lots of other flavors we DO love!“

“Everything about this location is so unique, beautiful and very tastefully done! I have never had anything from here that did not eclipse what you could imagine about pastries and coffee! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“the apple spice cake and vegan gravy made my holiday meal. thank you!!“

“McLain's is the best! We use them for catering at my office often and they are always quick to respond, reliable, and work well with our needs! And their food is the best! Highly recommend 😊“

“Everything I have tried has been 5 Star! Love this little bakery. So many fun finds on the menu.“

“My husband and I stopped in on a whim while in NKC. We had never visited McLain’s before. The staff was INSANELY kind and helpful! So many treats to choose. They recommended different options to us which we really appreciated. The danishes were DELICIOUS (probably one of the best I’ve had). This will be our go-to spot while in the northland!“

“They keep their door open so the wonderful smells of deliciously baking pies hit your nose and invite you to come in. I was unfortunately recently stuffed with lunch so that I couldn't order anything, but saw lots of varieties and sizes being offered. I did nab a bag of pie fries for later though... and totally regret not getting more! So crunchy but soft, dusted with the perfect amount of cinnamon sugar. The best part of the pie in snack form.“

“This 95th street store in lenexa is the best store in my opinion. I always have a great experience here with staff and all the cookies being tasty and available. Further for me than one of the other locations but this store knows what they are doing.“

“We ordered our wedding desserts and cake from Dolce Bakery and they were all incredibly delicious! We live out of town and we were a bit nervous to order the desserts without having the opportunity to taste everything beforehand, but thankfully the team at Dulce worked with us and gave us such great recommendations! Highly recommend them for your event or wedding!!“

“Wow!! Such an incredible date night!! The warm sweet potato rolls were Perfection!! The old fashioned & the Strawberry bellini were delicious!! We ordered the duck & steak! Both grilled perfectly!! The duck had heirloom carrots with hazelnuts. The steak was served with beef fat potatoes! Seriously Delicious!! We took home a piece of the chocolate ganache cake. Can't wait to enjoy it later!! Everyone was so genuinely friendly & welcoming!!! This place is impeccably decorated!! It's Gorgeous!! Beautiful flowers too!! It's a truly a delight for all your senses!! Highly recommend!!

“Just tried the chile cheese sourdough. Very good! Also excited to see it's local. Keep up the good work!“

“Was my 1st time and I was excited....I walked in smiling but my smile fell asleep immediately the one cashier grabbed the other and pointed at me whispering. I looked behind me but no one else was entering. I shrugged it off immediately because the place itself was such an amazing sight. I loved the setup and I spent quite a few minutes just walking around admiring such variety. The only downfall was the staff behind the counter watching me closely but never asking if I needed anything. Another customer smiled at me warmly and asked if it was my 1st time and explained about how everything works....I then got a few pastries 🍰 to try and walked over to the first register.both cashiers were now leaning against the counter on cell phones and when I said hi is this where I check out? The girl whose register is was in front of looked at me and walked away . I took my tray to the next register and repeated the same question. The young lady bagged my items and never said a word except to tell me my total. I wanted to ask for a manager but I was pressed for time. The pastry was incredible and I would love to take my daughter's there but with staff like that?“

“Gwen was so amazing and such a beautiful kind spirit. We had been in the hospital with my dad whom is a veteran for almost a month and she was so kind listening to my mom.“

“Taylor is amazing to work with , sh s very dedicated to her trade and very much strives to make her clients happy her cakes and cookies are absolutely beautiful and taste as good as they look ! I highly recommend her 10 out of 10“

“Wowwwww! I have never had such amazing gluten free baked goods! My partner surprised me with a chocolate cake, chocolate cookies and chocolate chip cookie sandwiches that have amazing whipped filling! I know Jason went out of their way to help and I can’t thank them enough for helping make the surprise so perfect. You guys are an absolute gem and I am SO thankful for everything you did! 💕💕“

“Incredible King Cake! (Almond cream cheese) 5 Stars“

“This place is the absolute definition of hidden gem. The rum cake was INCREDIBLE!!! Warming it in the oven took it from 10/10 to 20/10- a definite must! We also came home with some peaches, pasta and wine- all were delicious! Can’t wait to try a paella class and their private dinner!!“

“Nothing Bundt Cakes delivered a full-size red velvet bundt cake with cream cheese frosting to our office as part of a promotion, and WOW—this was hands down the best bundt cake I’ve ever tasted! The cake was incredibly moist, perfectly sweet, and had the most delightful surprise—chocolate chips baked into the batter. Every bite was rich, velvety, and packed with flavor. Our entire office was blown away! If you haven’t tried their cakes yet, you are seriously missing out. Highly recommend!“

“So pleased with our order! I reached out to MiKayla with some inspo and she took it and ran with it. The cookies turned out so cute and creative! Will 100% order from her again ❤️“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat, since I’m gluten free. Most of their food is GF, including their baked goods! It’s all soooo delicious.“

“My Daughter and I stopped here Jan 31, and Feb 6th both time we tried something new! Was so amazing!! A MUST go!!!“

“These things are shockingly good. I came late in the day so they were out of stock of several, but that's my fault. Tried five different ones and loved every single one. BBQ brisket is great but is also pretty small and would be my only possible complaint.“

“Received two loaves Thursday. Both were wonderful. Lovely texture, taste, smell! I will order again, and again, and again... Thanks!“

“Amazing place! The service was amazing! The coffee was amazing! The croissant was AMAZING! and I could not forget my loaf of sourdough bread. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Ordered a cookie bouquet for my dad’s birthday. I live in South FL so I only shopped online. Not only was the delivery on time today, but I was so pleased when my brother sent me the picture this evening. My dad was so happy to receive it — a perfect way to make his day special! Thank you SO much.“

“Best homemade biscuits and gravy I've had in years!
MeMa's Bakery is an absolute treasure! The biscuits and gravy are so good I ate them before I even made it out of the parking lot – that says it all! The pecan rolls are incredible too. Everything here is genuinely homemade and you can taste the love in every single bite. The staff are warm and friendly, and the whole place has that wonderful old-fashioned ma-and-pa bakery feel that's so hard to find these days. A new favorite spot in Kansas City!“

“I can’t recommend CC enough. Her cookies are delicious and she nails the theme every single time. So punctual and communicative. We will hire her for every single event when cookies are needed. 1000000/10 recommend!!“

“We ordered cinnamon roles to be picked up a day in advance for a brunch we were hosting. We had ordered from the catering menu. We received a call from store manager Eric the morning before picking up our order. He recognized that we were likely ordering food for the next day given our pickup time was 5pm. He talked to us about our order and revised it to cinnaPacks to save money. I felt this was great customer service to take the time to make these alterations to our order. I picked up my order and food was ready when I got there. Of course, the roles are delicious! And the cold brew was good too. I believe Cinnabon rolls are consistently good most places that you go. But customer service at this location takes it up a notch! Well done.“

“If you're in Overland Park and have a craving for delicious bundt cakes, this cake shop is an absolute must-try. We've had the pleasure of sampling their red velvet and white chocolate raspberry cakes a few times before, and they never disappoint.

This time, we decided to buy a cake for our 3-year-old nephew, and he was absolutely delighted. His exact words were, "You did a great job bringing these cakes!" Hearing that from him was incredibly heartwarming.

Both flavors are incredibly moist and flavorful, with the perfect balance of sweetness. The red velvet is rich and decadent, while the white chocolate raspberry offers a delightful combination of creamy white chocolate and tart raspberry.

If you're in the area, don't miss out on this gem. Their bundt cakes are truly some of the best we've ever had!“

“Encargue un pastel y si estaba rico, es la primera vez que ordeno y si me gusto. Pero desafortunadame no era la decoracion que yo pedi 😔, lo pedi que me lo decoraran con fresas y duraznos y pues esto fue lo que me entregaron 😔. Pero fuera de eso, el servisio muy hamable y el pastel estaba rico“
