50 Best Bakeries near Crescent Springs

“How did I not know this place was here? Seriously everything you could want from a smoothie spot. Focus on nutrition and health, with great prices. Come visit. Start your day with one of their smoothies and you won't regret it. Lol. I promise this is not a paid or sponsored review. I'm just blown away by the service I received and how I didn't know this place was so close to my house.“

“Came here with a friend who frequents this place and I'm pretty impressed. We lined up on Easter at opening and they already had a line out the door, even in the light drizzle. The line stayed that way over the next hour that we hung out there. They do sell out of items so it's best to get there as early as you can! I'm more of a sweet tooth when it comes to baked goods, but the everything bagel croissant is a must-have here. The staff heat it before serving, and it's truly the best of both worlds - the butteriness and flakiness of a croissant, with the garlic scallion seasme flavors of an everything bagel. The raspberry almond croissant is also delicious, a good balance of tart and nutty. The salty chocolate chip cookie was also good - large chocolate chunks throughout. The vegan matcha brownie was an adventurous pick; I'm usually iffy about vegan baked goods, and this one had a texture closer to a fudge than to a brownie. I liked the chocolate and mint combo but couldn't get a hint of matcha. Similarly, the raspberry matcha doodle had plenty of raspberry but 0 matcha. Overall, the limited edition matcha flavored items fell flat, but the goods off the regular menu were great and reasonably priced. The space itself is bright, large enough to seat a few small groups, and nice to hang out in. Staff are also helpful and friendly. Check this place out and stick to their bestsellers, and you'll be in carb heaven.“

“The food was all delicious - including our schnitzel sandwich + side of kasespatzel, pretzel + beer cheese, and Hawaiian Flammkuchen. Our 6 month old sends compliments to the owner and chef for being so helpful for her to have some plain cooked carrots! Service was incredible and friendly and we definitely will need to return!“

“I would never patronize an establishment co owned by Jaci Fantetti. Jaci totalled my cadillac down to my license plate three years ago on her third DUI and when given a sobriety test of which she could hardly stand up said, can't we wrap this up? you can see she's fine (me). she has an active warrant for being cited to court and not showing and was still actively bartending after that. no remorse and could have killed us but we weren't in the car that night (it was parked on the street) She also hit my car so hard going 55 in a 25 that she pushed my car into my daughter's SUV and almost totalled hers. she's had a string of evictions as well. on woodbine Ave in cheviot. look it up for yourself.“

“Miss my hometown downtown. Jennifer has Celiacs.. So happy to find this place which is totally gluten-free. The folks behind the counter are pleasant and knowledgeable. The establishment is clean, fresh, and inviting. Food is delicious! FULL flavor. Took a big box to take home“

“I love having this small precious bakery that truly has amazing chocolate chip cookies. Stopped in after getting my nails done I had a craving went in for cc cookie but also bought oatmeal Whoopi cream cookie and I am absolutely in love!! Also have had the pumpkin cream cookie ♥️♥️♥️. I’m dying to try the pop tarts but they sell out fast. They are so fresh and they go quickly so get there early. I stopped by one early afternoon for oatmeal cream and choc chip SOLD out but a fresh batch was a 5 minute wait. I’m a huge fan!!“

“My husband, Jason and I, enjoy bringing our granddaughter early in the morning to grab donuts bc watching her eyes light up is the best part! Who doesn’t love donuts! We both love the strudel.. cherry, apple and cheese! I love the new coconut crème and white crème filled, Jason likes the maple bacon ones and the custard ones.. but we pretty much like them all.. it’s a hard decision! We are lucky to have a delicious bakery so close! ???“

“Needless to say, these are a hit!! These are the PERFECT treats for business/customer purposes. The cookies look outstanding and they taste even better. The team at Little Flour is able to do any logo you wish on the cookies. They’re able to individually wrap them 2 different ways or keep them as is, laying on a tray. The staff is always friendly, the orders are always timely and our office uses them quite often for cookie orders as such…and we will continue to spread the word!“

“I'm from Lousiana on vaycay and OhMyGoodness the treats are Soooo delicious.... chocolate chip cookies are best ever....the banana pudding is Devine. I will definitely be ordering for shipping ..... LOVE THE SERVICE AS WELL. ❤️ ♥️“

“Firstly, the ube croissants are TO DIE FOR. Secondly, fantastic, friendly, informative staff who were also super excellent about helping me get a personal item back that I accidentally left in the cafe and didn't realize for weeks. I can't wait until our next trip to Cincinnati so we can try their ramen!“

“My wife recently surprised me with cream horns from Pastries by George, which are my favorite dessert, and the best outside Chicago or New York. She ordered several dozen for my party. They were gone within minutes of us putting them out….thankfully I set a few aside just for me. Everything we try (and we go there regularly) is phenomenal. The best in the city for anything with puff pastry and for cupcakes-there’s not even a close second. Thanks for making my birthday fun! Chef Drew“

“What a gem of a donut shop! The shop is really cute, tucked into a quiet corner of Norwood. I was thrilled to choose 12 varieties today and my coworkers loved every one of them. I had the citrus marmalade, so tangy and unusual, and the marmalade is made in house! The chefs father was manning the counter and he was really kind and knowledgeable. They have monthly special flavors, which are very unusual and delicious. Highly recommend! I’m looking forward to becoming a regular customer!“

“Oishii! Delicious! Came in for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed everything about this delightful gem. The onigiri and karaage lunch combo was perfect, light and healthy with a side salad. We also tried two cakes, a strawberry creme and matcha roll. Again, light and subtle flavors always leave you with room for one more bite.“

“i never leave reviews on places, but i genuinely loved it so much that i had to. the environment was so calm and welcoming and very cozy. the employees were SO nice, and on top of that, i had easily the best matcha latte i’ve ever had. highly recommend this place for a chill hangout or to get some work done :)“

“My friend and I happened upon this gem while on a girls day in Latonia. From the minute we walked in, we were welcomed with open arms. The baristas answered our questions and whipped up the most delicious drinks. The owner introduced herself and showed us around, quickly becoming a friend. We sat for a while on the amazing pink velvet couch and fell in love with this quaint little shop. Before we left, the owner offered to loan out her personal shopping cart (which she decorated for us). It was a memorable day and we will definitely be back!“

“I LOVE this restaurant. I started going soon after they opened. Then I found ways to go as they switched from offering lunch to offering dinner. The food is exceptional: fresh, extremely high quality produce, the cuisine is exquisite, the service is fabulous. I brought my grown children this time, and they both loved it. They had not been. I highly recommend it! Wonderful from beginning to end.“

“Hey all, if you're looking for great cookies to cure that sweet tooth, look no further. Davis Cookie Company has something good for the cookie lover. Shakes are delicious! I can't go too often, won't be able to fit my clothes. “

“I have seen so many posts about Allez Bakery on Instagram and heard fellow Elites talking about them for quite a while now. A few weeks ago, I was downtown for a meeting and when I found myself close to Allez Bakery, I had to stop. I read the reviews before I went in because I wanted to see what the top recs were. It was very clear that sourdough is the thing to NOT miss at Allez Bakery. The staff was SO friendly and helpful. They walked me through the different types of sourdough and eventually sold me a loaf of sourdough rye after I asked an employee which sourdough was the most sour. We then shared a bonding moment over our love for "flavors that punch us in the face." They sliced the bread for me and I ate a piece the moment I was back in my car. It was delicious-- some of the best bread I have ever had. I made turkey reubens with it that week and they were fantastic. The bakery itself is tiny, but so cute and warm and inviting. 100/10 will be back.“

“Love trying new local businesses and I’ve driven past this place for almost a month and saw the freshly baked goodies… I finally had time to stop and so glad I did! I wasn’t sure what all I got but picked 5 different treats and decided to share them!!! My favorite was the shells with raspberry filling! We will be back!!!“

“Yes, the line will be long but yes you should wait. It's difficult to choose a favorite. The Danish and the pretzels are marvelous. The scones were delicious. The fresh bread selection is top notch. In our families opinion this is the place at Findlay market to not miss!“

“Doctor's order, cut back on the sweets. Now and again I have to stray away from my diet and have something from "Sugar!" Good cookies,brownies,some cake and more. May need to get a cookie cake for my birthday this year. Better work out. Check out one of, if not the best cookie place in cincy.“

“Not only is this place super cute, the food, drinks, and pastries are delicious. You must stop by here and give this place your business! I has a white chocolate latte, the chilaquiles, and a cheese/strawberry danish. Very impressed by this unassuming little shop.“

“We got a vegan vanilla cake with a pistachio buttercream for my daughter's birthday. (It was sonic the hedgehog themed) and it was a delicious cake. The pistachio buttercream turned out to be a big hit with the guest. This place never disappoints.“

“Food: 4.5/5 They have macarons in every color of the rainbow. After trying many flavors, our favorites are the pistachio, birthday cake, and fruity cereal. The pistachio has a great pistachio flavor and is not overly sweet. The birthday cake is strawberry-forward and is excellent if you have a sweet craving. The fruity cereal tastes exactly like fruity pebbles. They have other flavors we enjoy as well, like salted caramel and Madagascar vanilla. They are delicious and so cute! Service: 3.5/5 Since they have the macarons prebaked, service is usually fast. They have other baked goods for sale that I haven't tried. They have cute long boxes they put them in. Atmosphere: 4/5 The storefront is small, with limited seating. The space is mainly filled with baking equipment. It's very clean and has a minimalist aesthetic with pops of color.“

“I’m not a big pastry/doughnut fan, but my family is. Whenever they get some, I’ll try some if they say it’s really good. So I’ve tried a lot of pastries. Most of the time, my reaction is yeah, they’re ok. When I tried North South’s pastries, I can honestly say they’re the best I’ve ever had. By far. 5 stars isn’t enough.“

“Nothing beats Graeter's Ice Cream! We stopped here before a show at Ludlow Garage. It as BUSY! I guess that's no surprise. The line move fast and before I knew it we were enjoying a special seasonal Ice Cream only available dipped into a cup or cone. OMG, so good! This is not our go-to Graeter's, but I'm glad there is one very near Ludlow Garage for a sweet treat before a concert.“

“The cheesecake was amazing! A little tart At First Bite but that's just because I ordered a raspberry cheesecake. Every bite was absolutely amazing. Perfect consistency to a cheesecake. The only thing that was missing was my white chocolate shaving on the top. But that's not even a big deal. I would definitely be interested in trying more of these cheesecakes.“

“Love this place. Our code wasn't working and the worker (I think the owner) was able to figure it out and got our order in. We have had the almond croissant, chocolate chip cookies, whole wheat sourdough, original sourdough, and orange cranberry bread.All have been excellent and we are so glad to have a local bakery. Thank you!!“

“Gotta love that this Servatti Pastry Shop is close to home. It took me a while to stop in, but once I did, I was very glad. I tried a few pastries, which were definitely tasty. The thing that keeps me coming back, however, is the pretzels and the beer and other cheese dips. The pretzels are great for a get together. Get a dozen and have them sliced. Perfect! If you're buying just for the family, or in our case, just for two, I recommend getting six pretzels. They are SO perfect when they are fresh, but they do not stay fresh long so plan accordingly. Oddly enough there are some amazing pastry shops in the West side so Servatti's isn't my go to for pastries, but their pretzels can't be beat. I'm craving them as a write!“

“This is a really cool cafe with delicious French treats. The croissant donut with Nutella is absolutely to-die-for. But don't forget the savory pastries too (like Smoked Sausage Bread). There really are so many things to try at PG that multiple visits are necessary! Counter service was very friendly. Well worth the drive from the suburbs, and parking along 4th Street is fairly convenient. Get the app before you go to earn rewards.“

“Nice sandwich shop 700 feet from the Northern Kentucky Convention Center. Decent Cuban Sandwich. A good alternative to the hotel restaurants next door. Service is self-serve, with pick-up at sandwich counter, though you're encouraged to tip at checkout. You can take your food out or enjoy it at a table. A good option next to the Convention Center, though there are several full service restaurants 3-6 blocks down the street from the Convention Center.“

“What a gem!! Wonderful eclairs, croissants and danish that transported me back to Europe. Can't wait to return and try some of the cream puffs. Special shout out for the pistachio croissants. Delicious, full of flavor and absolutely ginormous. Well worth the drive from Indiana to get the best pastries in the tri state area!!! Service is fantastic and the call ahead ordering is a big plus.“

“Excellent Cincinnati bakery. Huge selection of cookies, doughnuts, cakes and pies. Large selection of special occasion cakes and cookies. The lady that waited on me was involved with a task when I entered, yet she greeted me, offered assistance and rang my order. I think her name was Glenda and was a pleasant chapter in my life today.“

“I would never patronize an establishment co owned by Jaci Fantetti. Jaci totalled my cadillac down to my license plate three years ago on her third DUI and when given a sobriety test of which she could hardly stand up said, can't we wrap this up? you can see she's fine (me). she has an active warrant for being cited to court and not showing and was still actively bartending after that. no remorse and could have killed us but we weren't in the car that night (it was parked on the street) She also hit my car so hard going 55 in a 25 that she pushed my car into my daughter's SUV and almost totalled hers. she's had a string of evictions as well. on woodbine Ave in cheviot. look it up for yourself.“

“Delicious cupcakes!! We chose 4 and had the vanilla sugar cookie, strawberry, lemon, and banana pudding. Definitely sweet but not too much (I hate when cupcakes are super sugary and hurt your teeth, so these were perfect), they were moist and delicious, even the next day! The girls working there were extremely helpful and polite. Worth a stop if you're looking for a small sweet treat!“

“I was looking for comfort food and happen to stumble upon Granny's garden through a Google search, mind you, a lot further down on the list than it should be! Beyond expectations truly. My socks were knocked clean off ! Smiling from ear to ear. Noted: they aren't really a restaurant par say, but do offer dine in option during lunch hours from 11-2 pm. Again, just a remarkable place . Home cooked and appreciated ?“

“Stopped by here for a snack after lunch...Basically needed a thirst quencher. We saw this place and it is just a cute little shop with enough curiosity to draw me in. I love bubble tea so we had to stop and let me tell ya....they didn't disappoint one bit. The staff was absolutely great and so polite. There pastries looked fabulous, but had already ate. You have a great Bubble tea place Cincy. I'll visit again when I pass through.“

“You must try these Bundt cakes to understand. They are soooooooooo insanely good. They’re now my go-to for any nice celebration. Birthdays, showers, dinner party, anything. I didn’t understand what the big deal was until a colleague brought them in to work and I reluctantly tried them. 10/10“

“I ordered her cupcakes when she had one of her cupcake sales. I normally miss this post but this time i didn’t and was very excited because i have heard great things about her cakes and desserts. I was extremely satisfied with every cupcake they all taste amazing! If i had to pick a favorite it would be the banana pudding one. Besides her delicious cupcakes, she was very professional and responded in a timely manner. Great customer goes along way and she has that for sure! She had gained a returning client! Highly recommended!“

“Stepped out of the Cuban shop where I was picking up a Cuban sandwich to find a place that hit home. Chocolate peanut butter brownie cake. Holy $hit was it good Got a large glass of cold milk and went at it. Mmmmmmm Go there you'll be glad you did“

“We go to Jenny's to pick up cookies for family dinners, pot luck dinners and of course birthdays. There are so many flavors to choose from and the cookies are so large we cut them into quarters. This allows folks to sample all the different types. Each of our family members has a favorite so it provides a nice variety!! They are in a small storefront and try to keep the cookies stocked in the case. Ask if you don't see what you want as they might have them in the back. There are some seasonal cookies. The folks who work there are friendly and happy to help. Homemade happiness at Jenny's!“

“While visiting Hyde Park, a suburb of Cincinnati in Ohio, we went to Awakenings Coffee and Wine. The coffee was delicious... So much so that I took a bag of espresso beans back home to San Diego. Did not try any of the wine. The café is located on a wonderful block in Hyde Park with available shopping, food, and beautiful neighborhoods to walk nearby. Service wasn't as friendly as you'd expect, they weren't rude by any means, just not the typical caffeinated baristas. Would definitely go back again.“

“Came in 30min before close (I hate being that guy) but 3 ladies walked in so me and my friend went on in. Place was clean and people didn't seem to irritated about us coming in late. Me and my friend both got cones with 2 dips of ice cream. I don't think we was in there 5 minutes and out the door we went. Fast efficient service, and as usual ice cream was great!“

“I had the privilege and joy of ordering from this wonderful bakery/cakery from Ubereats and lemmmmmmeeee tellll youuuu!Y’all need to run to this placeNot walkRunnnnn!I’ve been living in Cincinnati for about 6 years now and have been to numerous bakeries in the area that mostly left my sweet tooth unsatisfied , I believe only Sweets by LaDawn is the only place that made my tastebuds happy and do a little dance and now Cora’s is right up there with her !Where to begin , the chocolate chip cookies I had were HUGE and soooooo soft and filled to the brim with chocolate chips it’s like THE ultimate chocolate chip cookie that will make your eyes roll to the back of your head it’s THAT good !Then there’s her Brownies ! Now lemmeeeeeee TELL you ! I am picky picky picky about brownies , the only ones I’ve come across that are even half decent in the area are the ones from Fresh Market and those are so mid compared to Cora’s Cakery ! These brownies from Cora’s are so big and huge and sooooo soft and chewy it’s chocolate heaven that will melt in your mouth ! Best brownie I’ve ever had probably in my whole entire life !Can you tell I’m a fan yet ? lol ! This bakery has a variety of items that I can’t wait to try and definitely will be back on A regular basis5 stars I’d give 10 if I could !“

“Absolutely love Graeter's ice cream. Every flavor is my favorite !! If you haven't stopped in, I highly suggest you do. They will not disappoint. Great desert candy donuts, etc. ... And last but not least the service is outstanding.“

“Not only was the ice cream fantastic, but the staff was patient and friendly, while being very busy. In addition, when asked about a particular flavor, they offered a small taste and some advice on what others thought of it. This is an excellent location.“

“The donuts and the coffee cakes never disappoint. The fillings in the jelly and French cream Donuts are absolutely amazing. The donuts don't have that oily taste after you eat them like most donut shops do. The caramel twist and cinnamon coffee cakes are the best.“

“The poor gal working was the only employee for today. She was apologetic, explained the situation, and proceeded to do a fantastic job serving all the customers. The donuts and pastries are superb. Need a fruit cake for Xmas? They have freshly made fruitcakes for sale. They also had bread. I have not tasted their fresh bread, but if it's anything like the donuts, pastries, fritters, etc. then it has to be delicious. They've been in the area as long as I can remember...there's a reason for that.“

“The place to go for dessert! The macarons are delicious in every flavor if you want a little bit of sweetness to finish dinner. You can get a 6 piece pack or a 12 piece pack and can choose to have different flavors in the pack. The store itself is small and plain but does not take away from the macarons. The cashier was very nice and let us take time to choose the flavors we were interested in. Definitely not a packed place to enjoy a bit of sweetness on a cold day.“

“I was at a conference and we went out for ice cream at Graeter's - a local favorite and now one of my top three places in the world to get ice cream! Graeter's specializes in ice cream with big dark chocolate chips and natural flavors. I had the Cherry Chip and Vienna Coffee. A friend had Coconut Chip and Lemon Meringue. Delicious! Service was efficient and the long line went quickly. I'll certainly be back the next time I'm in Cincinnati!“
