11 Best Bakeries near Richmond

“Their sugared apple cider donuts are the best I’ve ever tasted! Very prevalent apple flavor and a perfect spice combination, and they are not at all oily.“

“There are so few people still doing things the way these people are doing it and it is so appreciated. Bakeries like this are keeping a dying art alive and I will support these businesses as long as they are around. Every pastry, cookie, bread loaf, frozen pizza, or anything else I've gotten here has been top notch. You guys are doing such a good thing, never change!“

“Haven has been our go-to spot for brunch and lunch for over five years, and it has never disappointed. From the moment you walk in, they have delicious seasonal specials and a wide assortment of delectable baked goods from lemon cake slices, special turtle bars, chocolate squares, carrot cake, to ginger molasses cookies, among many others. This place has become a true favorite for good reason—the food is always fresh, with an emphasis on local ingredients that shine in every dish.

The menu is a beautiful balance of comfort and creativity, with seasonal offerings that highlight the best of what’s available. Whether you're enjoying their signature smoked salmon eggs benedict, a grilled pesto mozzarella chicken sandwich, a hearty soup, or a fresh salad, the quality of the ingredients is always top-notch. The savory baked goods are also such a treat, including their ham and gruyere biscuits. Pair them with one of their aromatic lattes (our favorite is the earl grey vanilla or jasmine maple latte) or creative seasonal drinks, and you’ve got yourself a perfect meal.

What really sets Haven apart, though, is the friendly atmosphere. The staff has always been warm and welcoming. It's clear that many regulars feel the same way, as it’s often very busy from the moment they open until they close. It’s a place that’s equally perfect for catching up with friends and family or enjoying a peaceful solo meal.

Haven even offers holiday meals, including Thanksgiving and Christmas specials. This Thanksgiving, we were far away from other family members and due to a busy work schedule, we tried their Thanksgiving dinner and it was great!

Despite being a local favorite and always busy, the service is consistently excellent, and I never feel rushed or overlooked. It’s no surprise this place has remained a beloved staple for so many years. If you're looking for a spot that combines amazing food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere, Haven is a must-visit!“
