50 Best Bakeries near Covington

“I ordered two pies for my family thanksgiving, a pumpkin pie and a cranberry apple pie. To say they were delicious and amazing doesn’t do either pie the justice they deserve. The pumpkin pie was so delicate and light (THESE ARE GOOD THINGS). Sometimes a pumpkin pie can be so heavy and too rich but this was effortless joy, airy and the flavor beat anything I’ve ever even attempted to make. The cranberry apple pie was latticed with sugary perfection. The tart of the cranberry melded with the apple in a delectable ballet of OMG YES. Thank you so much for these pies! I can’t wait to order from you again!“

“THE BEST, WE BUY EVERYTIME WE ARE AT WESTSIDE MARKET!! THAN YOU“

“Thank you…thank you. It’s perfect. I said “winter” theme and you all killed it. I drove 40 mins this am because the cake is always worth it. ❤️❤️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ North South Baking has the BEST Rhubarb Jam Filled Cruffins in all of Northern Kentucky — hands down! If you haven’t tried them yet, do yourself a favor and go ASAP. The flavor is unreal — perfectly balanced, flaky, and filled with that tangy-sweet jam that hits just right. Beyond the incredible pastries, the customer service is absolutely stellar. The staff makes you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. They’re kind, welcoming, and passionate about what they do — and that energy is contagious. This place has created lifelong memories for me, not just because of the food, but because of the people. North South Baking is a true gem. 💛🍓🥐“

“Had a wonderful experience at Brown Bear Bakery. The rhubarb bun was absolutely excellent — I love rhubarb and this was one of the best pastries I’ve had in a long time. Perfect balance of tart and sweet with a soft, fresh texture.

The everything bagel croissant was also fantastic and such a creative combination. Flaky, buttery, savory, and packed with flavor. Everything we tried tasted fresh and thoughtfully made.

Coffee was great as well, and the service really stood out. Everyone was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oakley Crumbl is hands down one of my favorite stops! Their Dr. Pepper dirty soda (with cherry, vanilla, and heavy cream) is absolute perfection—it’s my go-to every time. And the cookies? Amazing doesn’t even begin to cover it. We’ve honestly never tried a flavor we didn’t love. Every week feels like a new treat and they never disappoint. So glad to have this spot close by!“

“Hands down the best cookies and sweet potato pie in the area. The cookies are huge and flavorful (unlike another well known bakery) and the sweet potato pie is out of this world. Highly recommend!!“

“I shop at Davis Cookie Collection every week and it just keeps getting better. The flavors are out of this world! I seriously haven’t had a single one I didn’t like. Even the flavors I thought I wouldn’t enjoy, she somehow made me fall in love with. That’s how good these cookies are.

On top of that, the customer service is exceptional. The owner is warm, welcoming, and truly passionate about what she does. You can feel the love and care in every cookie and every interaction.

This place is a gem. If you're a cookie lover or even if you're not, you need to try it. You’ll be hooked!“

“Tara and Kevin do such a phenomenal job creating not only the best tasting cake around, but also such beautiful decor that you don’t even want to cut into it haha. I will never go anywhere else for cake. 🎂“

“Best bakery in the tri-state! Great variety of pastries and a quaint spot. What I love most about this place is the ever changing pastries. They have the basics (croissant, pain au chocolat… etc) but they have a lot of other things. My favourite is the s’mores croissant and the focaccia of the day, no matter what is it, it’s always good!“

“My 2024 is off to a good start because I was blessed with a Chicos cheesecake sweet potato flavor! I tasted the love in every bite! Thank you, Jas for the personal delivery! See you again soon!“

“Great location, staff and amazing salted rye and scones! Just off hyde park square.“

“Did the Macaron class at the Short North location today and it was fantastic!!“

“What a delight! My wife, son and I dropped by on a whim yesterday and purchased some beautiful loaves and a coffee cake. The best sourdough I have ever had, the coffee cake is incredible and the employees were wonderful. I just can't say enough good things. I will definitely be a regular.“

“Servatii has the most delicious food. I’ve had almost everything that Servatii in Blue Ash has, and I’ve never been disappointed. I keep coming back to this location because of the food and great customer service.“

“Love! My partner and I walked in and were warmly welcomed by friendly staff. (Seriously the most friendly and warm greeting I've had anywhere in a long time.) Between the two of us, we had a blueberry muffin, cinnamon bun, éclair, cream puff, spinach parmesan pastry and a pastry similar to a margherita. I also had a loose leaf chai which is available unsweetened.

I enjoyed all my pastries. The staff made sure I had a safe place to plug in my laptop and really went beyond to make sure we were comfortable.

I have to say the star of the show were the eclair and the creme puff. I've always loved these desserts in general because cream is divine to me. I usually kind of felt like choux is just meh. BUT the choux here is out of this world. I have never had anything like it, the texture is not chewy and bland as I'm used to. Here, it is as it should be, airy with a crisp outside.

I think I've found my favorite dessert in the entire city!“

“The cupcakes are delicious! I purchased 4 different flavors of cupcakes and they were all so moist and fresh tasting. I wish I had bought more on my overnight visit to Cincy“

“I picked up six of the small Bundtlets (Biscoff flavor) for an open house, and they were a huge hit! I tried one myself and it was absolutely delicious, super flavorful and fresh. I will definitely be using them again for future open houses.“

“I placed an order for my daughter's birthday cake and they did an fantastic job. We found a picture of a cake my daughter wanted for her birthday and they were able to make it at an affordable price under $40. I called other local bakeries and was quoted $95 and up and another place quoted me $125. Thank you all for making beautiful affordable cakes. The cake was a delicious strawberry flavor and we will be returning in the future for other birthday cakes.“

“Best key lime gooey butter cake ever. Thank a bunch.“

“Ever since I was little we loved to stop here and get an order of zwieback to have at home. We stopped in and ordered some a few days ago and it’s still so good all these years later! We also got some smiley face cookies that my nieces loved. We love the Cookie Jar!“

“Mt. Washington Creamy Whip is hands-down the best spot if you’re craving edible cookie dough and soft serve. Everything is absolutely delicious—rich, fresh, and worth every bite. On top of that, the service is exceptional and always makes the experience even better. Such a fun, go-to treat spot!“

“Loved the brownies!! We had peanut butter, double chocolate, and biscoff. They were delicious! 😋“

“Best Darn Donuts for the past 50 years of my 55 years. Donut miss out on a NKY stable!“

“I was so happy with my wedding cake. I gave them a pic I found online and it was exact. It wasn’t an easy one either. Great job“

“5 stars all the way!
I ordered custom cookies for a graduation celebration, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations! Not only were they beautifully decorated and perfectly on theme, but they were also delicious-soft, fresh, and full of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back for future events! Highly recommend!“

“Received a bag of peanut butter dog cookies as a gift. My dog loves them!

I've since ordered a three pack. Shipping was fast and easy. Each bag of cookies is personally signed by the individual who baked/packed them.

Each purchase supports this charity which encourages collaboration and skill building among the staff.

I love the idea of how they bake these treats from spent grains from local craft breweries. A healthy snack for my pup and great gift idea for dog lovers.“

“I ordered the nativity scene cookies and they are beautiful! Not only were the cookies, beautiful but they also called me when I forgot to pick them up! Much appreciated. Excellent service beautiful work.“

“I recently had an issue with the quality of a product i was ordering and contacted Nicky on their corporate line through email and she immediately contacted me and was extremely understanding and helpful in getting this issue resolved. I also recieved a follow up call by Tina the next day and, again, was very grateful for the way they handled my situation.
Love Busken Bakery and will continue to buy my pastries here!“

“We celebrated my granddaughters 6th birthday there. They were so kind with her. I fell in love with the bakery, so much in fact, I dropped off a cupcake diamond art picture in hopes they could find a spot to hang it there. Love the atmosphere and the food!“

“Visited for the first time on the day before Mothers Day. Location is conveniently located near the market. They had seating outside and plenty inside. I noticed immediately upon entering how well maintained, clean and adorable this little bakery was. The chocolate croissant was perfection and both staff members went above and beyond.“

“We drive the hour for their donuts as they are just that good! The chocolate icing is the best around. Last Friday I got to try the cherry bombs and apple cinnamon sugar donut and those are also so amazing. We’ve had their bread and danishes in the past and guess what? Also amazing 😊 only place we get donuts at anymore“

“Sprinkle & Mix Bakery exceeded my expectations. They made the perfect stitch cake for my granddaughter eith awesome flavor!“

“Very quick unloading , but tough place for maneuver
Little bit hard to get .
They got 2 loading dock behind building. If you coming from West , take right on Simpson Ave, just behind food store , than take right shoulder for left turn to ( ull see sign on pole ) .if u got couple pallets they can bring pallet jack outside and u r not gonna need suffer while trying get into loading dock ).
They also got own trucks and small parking lot 300 feet ahead wich u can use for u turn“

“My grilfriend and I went to the Factory 52 location Sunday afternoon. All 3 of the cupcakes were sooo good. We got red velvet, birthday cake and chocolate chip cookie dough. I am completely shocked that anyone would give this place less than 5 stars. Can’t wait to go back and try the other flavors!!“
