50 Best Bakeries near Needham

“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.“

“Stopped in on a whim and was blown away. The cupcakes were soft, flavorful, and beautifully decorated. The most moist cupcake I have ever had in my Life The red velvet was the best I’ve ever had. The strawberry cheesecake was insanely delicious Courtney was one of the most polite amazing workers I’ve come across —made the whole experience even better“

“We had a graduation party and this was the perfect ending . Delicious ice cream and cookies . Highly recommend“

“CATERING! We used French Press for our 30 person brunch for a birthday party. I couldn't have asked for an easier, more honest experience, and at a great price. The food was DELICIOUS--- we did Bialys, sandwiches, and salads. Plenty of choices even for folks with restrictions. The coffee, of course, was excellent. FWIW, in our group, the first things to go were the egg and bacon bialy and the caprese sandwich. (We had just the right amount of food-- a few leftovers, but we were never worried about running out of anything, all on Kirsten's advice.) Hoping to have another big milestone so we can use them again!“

“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!“

“Something is SERIOUSLY wrong!!! 4.8 stars for Mike & Patty’s is a damn tragedy. Who do I need to speak to about this? 😂 10/10

I didn’t even know there was a category for World’s Best Breakfast Sandwich… apparently Mike & Patty’s created it.

First up: The Fancy. That perfectly runny little yolk made me stop what I was doing and PUT DOWN MY PHONE. I know… in this day and age, that’s basically a spiritual experience.

I ate the entire sandwich and then did the only responsible thing: ordered another one. Purely for quality control. I’m basically a food scientist. 😂

Just when I thought I’d reached peak breakfast, along comes the Bfast Grilled Crack. Now I’m sitting there geekin’ out over what can only be described as fresh, delicious breakfast art.

These guys dropped the mic, pulled out all the stops, put their best foot forward… hell, insert every cliché here because they earned all of them.

Damn, this place is LEGIT.

My bathroom scale and I will be discussing this decision privately. 😂“

“Everything in this bakery is flawless. The savory olive roll, the hearty multigrain sourdough, and the buttery raspberry tart move me to dance, bring tears to my eyes, and make me want to hug the baker. Bread is what I'd crave on my deathbed, and these loaves would absolutely top that list. But it's the wonderfully welcoming people behind the counter that truly make this place feel like heaven on earth.“

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

“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“

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

“I can't recommend Korean Momma enough! We ordered an OG Burnt Basque Cheesecake for my boyfriend's birthday, and it was honestly the best Basque cheesecake we've ever had. The texture was perfectly creamy and custardy with that beautifully caramelized top, and the flavor was incredible, not overly sweet and just absolutely delicious.

What made the experience even more special was how kind and accommodating Su Jean and Duly were. They were able to make a special order for us outside of their regular drop schedule, which completely surprised my boyfriend and made his birthday so memorable. They even included an extra slice of their chocolate Basque cheesecake, which was such a thoughtful surprise.

If you're looking for a cake outside one of their scheduled drops, I'd absolutely recommend reaching out to ask about a special order. They were wonderful to work with, and the extra effort meant so much to us.“

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

“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!“

“Fig is the best! Their takeout window basically got me through the pandemic, and I feel very lucky that this is my local. As a certified scone-hater, their blueberry scone is the best I've ever had. I recommend their lattes, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches (the cheddar cheese is SHARP), and chia pudding. Their lunch sandwiches are also great. 10/10 for staff, vibes, food, and coffee.“

“SOOO delicious!!! Everything about my experience made me feel like I was in a local Paris pastry shop. I met Pedro who gave a recommendation as a first comer! The staff is welcoming and gave it a family vibe. The sweets are heavenly. I will dream about the coffee eclair!! I also had this raspberry cake that was tart and sweet all at the same time. I will be back :)“

“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. 🍋🥥“

“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.“

“Amazing bakery with excellent service! The staff was so friendly and welcoming. The bread was fresh, delicious, and tasted homemade. I also love that they carry a variety of groceries, making it a convenient place to shop for more than just baked goods. Highly recommend checking this place out!“

“We ordered a vegan half sheet almond cake from Luna’s—it was TERRIFIC. It joined several other cakes at a family gathering, and everyone loved it.

I found it easy to communicate with the bakery manager, and that she had some terrific ideas for flavors. I would absolutely order from them again. Pickup was super easy, too!“

“This is my third time going here and I'll tell you people it just gets better every time! I usually go there and get the tuna fish sandwich and the egg salad sandwich but today they didn't have the tuna fish so they made me a fresh egg salad sandwich. What a way to go. the beautiful lady that made my sandwich came from the back and gave me a beautiful smile and told me the days of her operation and for me to make a phone call before I come so they can have everything waiting for me. Maybe an African-American man that made me very happy and I felt like I was home! Sometimes when you go into places like this and they see a big black man, you usually don't get that great service or they don't talk to you like you're definitely a customer, you usually get that okay what the heck do you want type talk, lol. But way to go I'll definitely be back hugs and love to you guys text Nation point“

“My friend and I came for the dubai chewy cookie but instead got more than we anticipated because of the vast amount of desserts that they served and we were not disappointed.

Definitely recommended everything that is shown in the picture and we will come back for more!“

“Cranberry Pecan Roll is out of this world.“

“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“

“My sister-in-law just sent me and my wife a door dash order to cheer us up, with cold brew and two pains au chocolat. I took one bite and… wow. Buttery but light and flaky, cooked just right - understated perfection in a bag! I grew up in France, and this is honestly one of the best French pastries I have had in 28 years living in the US. Even in France it's not every day you find one this good! We’ll be going there for more, can’t wait to try what else they have to offer!“

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

“I normally dont dont this but Komugi Bakery is absolutely a 5/5! You can really tell how much attention they put into every detail, especially when it comes to texture and flavor. Everything feels carefully made, with the perfect balance of softness, richness, and sweetness without being overwhelming.

The French toast was definitely a standout. The texture was incredible, soft and fluffy on the inside with just the right finish on the outside. Every bite had so much flavor, and you could really taste the quality and thought that went into it.

What impressed me most about Komugi is how intentional everything feels. The flavors, textures, presentation, and small details all come together perfectly. Definitely a bakery worth visiting, and I’ll absolutely be coming back!“

“Best bakery and cafe around!“

“Thank you for the fast shipping! Great to have a bit of my childhood fav cookies from my hometown delivered to me in NYC. Anytime I’m back in Boston I grab a few packs to bring back- so happy I can just order online now 😉“

“Friends brought croissants from Le Petit Four. Arguably the best croissants ever enjoyed. Perfect combination of melt-in your mouth, butter flavor, flakiness and doneness. Remarquable !“

“I was searching Google for a custom pull apart cupcake cake and found Frostin in Boston. Liza was quick to respond to my email and right away we found the perfect design for my daughter’s birthday. She offered pick up in Medford and also delivery to your house! If you have allergies she offers, gluten-free, vegan and nut-free cakes!“

“Lovely staff and delicious baked goods!“

“I bought a turkey croissant for lunch. The lady picked up one and said “this is tiny” and gave me two for the price of one. It is not tiny at all! I don’t know if she thought I bought something not enough for lunch, since I dressed in my cheapest t shirt, or they usually make bigger croissant. She warmed my day anyway.“

“Every year I host a tennis charity event Serve For a Cure in support of the Jimmy fund and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. I reached out to Nothing Bundt Cakes, via email thinking they wouldn’t answer me. I got an phone call saying they would like to donate cakes to my event. When I was told how many, I was flabbergasted. They were so generous and very easy to work with. The day of my event a friend of mine picked up the personal cakes, and we gave them out to the tennis players. I some how got 4 of them. They were delicious! I would highly recommend Nothing Bundt Cakes for your next occasion or even just a sweet treat.“

“Best bakery I’ve been to in years! Fresh perfectly cooked pastries. Kind and friendly service. Here visiting for a week found this place- a real must stop when in Norwood!“
