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“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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. 💛🍓🥐“

They always have amazing baked goods, including croissants, scones, pastries, and cookies, as well as espresso drinks. There are great sweet and savory options.

The ingredients are fresh and well-balanced. Seating is limited but tables open up regularly. The staff are amazing! Even on the busiest days they always take the time to show hospitality and warmth to you. Top-tier Cincy bakery!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!“

“Delicioso pan. Se los recomiendo muchísimo“

“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“

“The raspberry danish and raspberry shortbread were divine! Coffee was great as well! Only thing I was unimpressed with would be the raspberry matcha, which had a seaweed taste and I could not taste much raspberry. Overall though, it was a great experience!“

“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. 🎂“

The Banana Shake is a work of art.
We bought one of every cookie and currently working our way through them.
Nana's Strawberry cookie is hands down a fav so far. I'm going back for more.“

“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.“

“One team member said: "Cafe Mochiko is hands down one of the best Japanese bakeries that I have had the honor of trying. Everything is perfectly balanced regardless if you are a sweet or savory kind of person! The best part was my gluten free wife had some incredible options as well. The only thing that I wish is that I knew about them sooner. They are award winning for a reason and I highly recommend everyone to check them out!"“

“The Carrot Cake at Nothing Bundt Cakes in Florence was absolutely delicious! It was incredibly moist, full of warm spices, and packed with real carrot flavor. The cream cheese frosting was rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced—not overly sweet. Every bite was soft, fresh, and flavorful. If you’re a carrot cake lover, this is definitely one of the best you’ll find. Highly recommend it, and I’ll definitely be back for another!“

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

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

“I cannot tell you how beautiful the cookies were! We ordered cookies for a bridal shower, and these were perfect! In addition to looking so stunning, they tasted fantastic! Thank you, Little Flour Baked Goods, for making our special event even more special!“

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

“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!“

“My husband and I found this little shop when I googled ice cream near Riverbend. I had softserve chocolate in a waffle cone. It was so good! I’m still thinking about it.😁 My husband said his chocolate milkshake was much better than DQ. Glad we found you!“

“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“

“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.“

“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“

“Great espresso, coffee, and other beverages. Always happy to support local.“

“There was zero wait, and everyone who works here is so friendly! I purchased the Tres Leches cake, and it is fantastic! I took a little spoonful before taking my photo, so the inside could be seen! So moist and just the right amount of sweet! Can’t wait to visit again!“

“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!“
