50 Best Bakeries near Allston

“100% recommend! So good and a cute little place to eat at as well. Drinks are good and the donuts are unlike anything else I’ve ever had!!!“

“WOW. First time here and loving it. Ordered a shawarma chicken wrap and I barely had time to sit down before it came out. The wrap was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The service is incredibly quick and the staff were super friendly and upbeat. Good vibes only here at Sofra! 10/10“

“1st time. It was great. Good food!!!! Well packaged. Driver was so polite. I will order again from them ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“The most delicious pastries ever. If you love pistachio the way I do you will have trouble choosing and it is ALL great. But I particularly love the savories. The Palestinian bread and the flatbread with the green topping (forget what it's called) is a family favorite. We adore these; the flatbreads are a great quick lunch. But so so delicious, fresh, we are so fortunate to have you here!“

“We love the quiche at Colette's!“

“One of the best places to get a sandwich. The ruby melt was so good! Also, the English muffins are amazing here. They are made with fresh olive oil. Lastly, the staff are very nice and polite. In particular Johnathan made me feel welcome. Insisting on selling (!) but I like good salesperson!“

“We went here because is was apparently ranked one of the top 20 bakeries in the US. It is on par with other local bakeries and I'm not sure why this one ranked any higher since we got at least 5 pasties to sample plus the baguette and everything was fine but not out of this world. I actually prefer the pasties at Salt. It's also incredibly cramped inside so just be prepared to grab and go.“

“Rosemary foccacia was actually some of the best bread I've eaten, I could eat it for a meal fr. Cashier was a little zoned out but that's ok, I get it. Also got the bouchon(?) and it was delightful. Outdoor seating nicely shielded the rain.“

“Stopped in on a whim and grabbed a coffee and spinach pastry. Both were great!

The best part of the experience was the staff. They were very busy but still friendly and smiling. The man who took my order was very, very kind and made my day.

Wonderful, local coffee shop!“

“Every week when I take my dog on a long walk we pass Weesh so I can get my weekly fix of the Berry Pop Tart. Not only does it taste fresh and amazing, but the owner and staff there are beyond kind and friendly. This is a true gem in Roslindale Village“

“I don’t say this lightly — but Koreamomma just ruined all desserts for me

I’ve had a lot of cheesecakes, but this? This is next level. The kind of dessert that surprises you the first time and still amazes you every single time after.“

“Katie was the absolute BEST to work with for our wedding - we can't recommend her enough! She developed an assortment of mini cupcakes and macarons that perfectly matched our wedding colors, flavor preferences, and accommodated the groom's allergies. She was so organized and easy to work with and handled all of the day-of setup and breakdown flawlessly. Our desert table felt so personal and we got so many compliments from guests. We can't wait to have another excuse to work with Katie!“

“Fine pastries made by chef Sharif and his team… great espresso with a French vibe all the way down to the bistro chairs and marble top tables situated in a picturesque cobblestone alley overhung by ivy and beautiful trees. Portsmouth’s greatest hidden gem that everyone seems to know about.“

“Everything I’ve bought, from the spinach and feta triangles to zaatar spiced focaccia has been delicious and fresh, plus the owner is kind.“

“The bundt cakes are Delish. Customer service goes above and beyond! Would recommend 5 stars !“

“I love this place so much. I live in PA, have a husband and children, and still contemplate leaving them for the day to drive to Bakey and pick up a boatload of baked good. It’s that good. Please please please consider coming to the Lehigh valley!!“

“amazing pastries!! nice people and very good coffee. I will be back!“

“THANK YOU for offering vegetarian sandwich options that are unique and tasty! The coronation chickpea sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in my LIFE. Also pictured: “all gussied up” sando, rhubarb soda, and malt vanilla frappe. All wonderful.

I’ll definitely be back!“

“I wish Bova's Bakery are coming in Oroville, California“

“Sourdough olive👍👍👍 bread“

“I really like this cake shop and have been here several times. The cakes are really nice—light, elegant, and not too sweet, with very delicate flavors. The bread is also great and all very reasonably priced.

The staff are friendly and polite, and I always leave with a good impression. If you’re nearby, it’s easy to stop by since there’s street parking along the road.

It’s a French pâtisserie, but I’d especially recommend it to Japanese customers as well—the flavors feel very familiar and approachable.“

“I know it wasn’t your normal birthday cake but wanted to let you know we loved it 🥰. From ordering the cake, to pick up, this place is amazing. Thank you for working your magic on my special request of lemon & coconut. 🍋🥥“

“The patties are wonderfully spiced & flakey. can't wait to try sweet the pastries!“

“Will never go there just by reading reviews how they treat customers with disrespect, that behavior is not tolerate in Little Italy NYC Mulberry Street stop by Cafe Palermo if you in New York“

“Tastes like home—maybe even better, if that's possible.“

“Cake order review only: easy to inquire about a cake online. Easy payment once we discussed the vision of the cake. And easy pickup. BEAUTIFUL CAKE. The cake was $90 for a heart shaped 2 layer cake with vintage piping, vegan vanilla with vegan vanilla buttercream and strawberry jam filling. I didn’t get the filling but was refunded immediately and the person handling the situation was so nice. I had asked why the darker icing tasted to chemically and they informed that the more they use the dye the more it tastes like it. So I would just skip that completely. Get the lighter frostings. Because like I said these are beautiful cakes and the cake itself is a good texture and flavor as a vegan cake.“

“Turned a get together into a happening. Everything was delicious. Chicken salad was yummy salad and desserts amazing. Prices were reasonable.“

“Cranberry Pecan Roll is out of this world.“

“The cookies here are phenomenal! My mom and I came in here on a Saturday afternoon, and were greeted by a friendly staff member who explained the menu to us in great detail. He also had a tree nut allergy, so it was comforting to know that he was looking out for me!!! Definitely will be back“

“Had a Rocky Road cookie, and it was amazing. The staff here is wonderful, and very friendly. I can’t wait to bring my friends here.“

“Was in the area for a convention and happily stumbled onto Colette's. The ladies working the counter were very pleasant and helpful. The croissants we purchased were absolutely delicious, while the macarons were great as well. Street parking was a bit of a challenge but worth the effort. Definitely would stop again if we are in the area.“

“Best sandwiches and great service! The chicken in their greek salad was so good.“

“Our favorite local coffee shop. They constantly pull delicious espresso, have a great selection of roasts, and the food always satisfies. The chocolate zucchini loaf cannot be missed! I also really appreciate that there’s no WiFi. It makes it easy to consistently find a place to sit because people aren’t camping out all day.“

“We contacted them for our Baby Shower cupcakes. They were beautifully decorated and exquisite! People at the party loved them. We definitely recommend this place. I can’t wait to order more options from here. Thank you Dessert Works for been part of our memories and for making a wonderful experience!! -Ida“

“Italian Rum cake baked gluten free is one of my fav cakes from Daniels Bakery“

“One of my favorite spots to get a sandwich around town. Big portions, friendly service. The owners are super nice and remember their customers by name.“

“We had our wedding cake designed and baked at Luna's Bakery and we HIGHLY recommend. They executed our vision beautifully and were a pleasure to work with. The cake was delivered on time and without any issue, the team is quick to respond, and our guests could not stop talking about the brigadeiro flavor. We had a three tier cake with a vintage design. Stop by Luna's Bakery to try all their delicious flavors and get a coffee while you're there. We can't wait for our first anniversary to have our top tier!!“

“Best bakery and cafe around!“

“10/10 experience! Great coffee and breakfast. Love the vibe of the atmosphere!“

“Cute little bakery. Friendly service. I always stop here when I'm in the area to get goodies that aren't common in traditional bakeries. My favorites are the Pandan Coconut Cake roll, the Strawberry Cake roll, and the Corn & Cheese Roll. Because it is a small place, it can get super crowded with a queue out the door. Best to go between peak meal times.“

“Stopped at Raymundo's for the first time today and LOVED the food. The family got pupusas and I had the lengua torta. The pupusas were the best we have had in a while, stuffed to the edges. The torta was exactly what I needed, amazing portion and the bread was soft and toasted perfectly.

The only critique is that on a hot day the dining room (window high top) was too hot to dine in, we took it to the car.“

“I was just in the mood for some Brazilian type pastries for lunch, and looked it up on Yelp! My daughter and I drove from Woburn to Somerville and ordered an assortment of goods... You know when you experience something that takes you back to your childhood?? This was it for me...the ambience, the friendliness, and the flavors. Me, my daughter and my inner child drove home with smiles on our faces with food for my wife and my mother to enjoy!!! Amazing! We’ll be back soon!“

“The best zeppole you’ll find around. Great neighborhood bakery!“

“Fantastic atmosphere, amazing food and superb service. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent service and the cookies are amazing. Convenient opening at 8am so I was able to pick up before work.“

“Levain Bakery was a great stop! The latte was very aromatic, smooth, and delicious. The location was nice, walkable, and had a social feel, which made it a great place to stop by and enjoy a treat.

They had a lot of tasty bakery options, and everything looked fresh and delicious. The staff were also friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better.

Overall, Levain Bakery is a great spot for a good latte, delicious baked treats, and a nice atmosphere. I would definitely recommend it.“

“From the very beginning working with the people at Donna’s Cakes was an A+ experience. All the people I spoke with were nice and helpful. The birthday cake was beautifully decorated, delicious and ready as promised. Thank you!“

“The cookies are always fresh and tasty and made of the best ingredients. We live in Boxborough, MA and drive all the way there. Got lucky and my day off they were open. Thanks for making it always worth it.☺️😋The Alda Family“

“Quaint little bakery and cafe! I’ve been dying to have more salt bread in my life, but this place’s hours are a bit wonky. To my surprise, they were open Fourth of July, so I stopped by for some breakfast snacks.

I got the salt and butter bread, blueberry sunrise, and strawberry white chocolate sunrise.
The salt and butter bread was a bit disappointing. It was chewy rather than fluffy. But it was quite large which is nice.
The sunrise buns had nice crispy tops. I liked the blueberry the most. It had more fruity flavor than the strawberry.
I also grab be a hojicha tea to cool down. Super refreshing!“

“King Do has recently moved to a new location, and the space is now much larger, cleaner, and more airy. The menu still offers a wide variety of options, and the food remains just as delicious and affordable as before. The highlights for me are definitely the pennywort drink and the mung bean milk—both are refreshing and a must-try.“
