50 Best Bakeries near Jamaica Plain

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

“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.“

“I love this little bakery SO much. Easily one of the coolest places in Boston. And their croissants/tarts/pies/BREADPUDDINGS are my downfall... and I mean that in the best way possible.“

“New favorite no frills breakfast place in JP with healthy options but also bacon“

“Whoever bakes their scones has a gift!“

“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!“

“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.“

“We ordered breakfast sandwiches as take-out before hitting the road to head home to NJ. What a wonderful surprise! We expected basic egg and cheese sandwiches. These were so much better! They were absolutely delicious, as was the hash brown. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Boston.“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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!“

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

“So yummy!! Really enjoyed our lunch“

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

“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“

“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“

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

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Best bakery and cafe around!“

“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!“

“Food was good. However, I didn’t blow me away. The pupusas I was looking forward to, but mine was not cooked all the way through so it wasn’t that pleasant. I’m sure it would’ve been delicious if it had been cooked properly. Definitely do not go to dine in. There are a few Chairs next to the window and that’s it. It’s pretty much a takeout place. I would try it again, but probably not anytime soon.“

“An absolute gem and best bakery I've been to in Cambridge/Boston serving fresh baked Japanese style breads! Everything is freshly made and baked in-house and the quality speaks for itself: incredible Japanese wheat and flavor. Their salt bread was so soft, flavorful, and buttery. Their curry pan, which was fresh out of the oven was warm, perfectly savory. The French toast was simply heavenly, with a custardy pillowy sweetness. Their coffee was also incredible. You can tell the staff care so much. We'll be back regularly.“

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

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“Got a loaf of the Sunflower Multigrain a few weeks ago and this is hands down the best bread I've ever had.“

“First time visiting Levain Bakery in Seaport Boston, and honestly. It felt like a miracle. It was 21:00 and I needed warm, soft cookies 🍪

The service from Cole H was outstanding: no pushing, no rushing, just genuinely friendly and welcoming. The warm, gooey cookies made me so happy.

I enjoyed it so much that I had to write a review as soon as I got back to my hotel.

Thank you, Levain. Thank you, Cole H.“

“This place has strong sentimental value for me. We got our wedding cake here and they don’t ( or didn’t at the time ) make wedding cakes. We were young and poor and they made us three cakes which we put on platters to make into a wedding cake. We had so much left over we were eating it until Thanksgiving (got married at the end of August). We had no money and were eating pancakes, kraft Mac and cheese, chicken loaf sandwiches, chicken pucks and ramen to survive. But our freezer was filled with the leftover cake and I just loved it.
Circle back 30 some odd years later and my wife and I are walking through Chinatown and we come across this place again (we had moved away from the area after we got married). We go inside, the cake is not on the menu, but we tell them what we want (peach cake) and they make it for us right there. We bring it home and eat it the whole cake in one sitting.
Now whenever we are in Chinatown, we stop here before we go home and they make the cake for us ( though we don’t eat the whole thing in one sitting anymore).❤️“

“I am so pleased that I can go right down the street from my house and am able to buy a really good apple pie, filled with lots of apples just the right amount of sugar, I almost ate the whole pie myself, another great pie which is my favorite is the Key Lime pie, Lemon squares and blueberry muffins are a must try them. Phyllis O'Leary“

“I buy their wonderful breads and scones every Wednesday at the Wayland Farmers Market. I look forward to visiting their actual store this fall. The Dakota, cinnamon and white breads are the best.“
