50 Best Bakeries in Baltimore

“Amazing bagel sandwich with crisp bacon and a perfectly cooked egg with a jammy yolk. Iced coffee was fine but unmemorable. S’mores cookie is a 10/10. One star knocked off because it’s very a cramped space and layout, but understood given the building.“

“I ordered a cookie bouquet this morning and received outstanding customer service from the Belair location. They were courteous and contacted me in a timely manner following my request for follow-up information. The owner made sure the delivery went out as expected. This was my first experience with this location and it exceeded my expectations, and my friend was extremely pleased with her cookie bouquet. Great experience!“

“Pizza was great, didn’t love that you could only order online and it was a minimum 1.5 hour wait. I thought maybe they were busy but I showed up early hoping it would be done and it was empty and cashier told me pizza guy had to step out … lol what? Not great first impression.“

“The owner was GREAT to work with on a last minute request. A super delicious 6 inch Cookies and Cream cake and some cupcakes. She even delivered it to the restaurant after closing. So glad we found Codetta on Google.“

“Pariser's Bakery is a true gem for doughnut lovers! Their selection is incredible, with so many different flavors to choose from. The Lotus donut is a standout—perfectly sweet with that irresistible caramelised crunch. The chocolate-topped donut is another favorite, rich and satisfying without being overly indulgent.

What makes the experience even better is the pricing; the donuts are so affordable, making it easy to treat yourself without breaking the bank. The staff are equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and always ready to help with recommendations.

If you’re looking for quality donuts with excellent service, this is the place to go! Highly recommended.“

“Wow, I used to love you guys... But once I found out you guys hired someone that distributed child pron, that love immediately stopped. Oh, and I forgot to mention... He distributed THOUSANDS!! THOUSANDS of photos and videos of prepubescent children and toddlers. I'm all for hiring felons, but not when those felons endanger children. The name of the employee is Charles Pijanowski. I might come back, but only after you fire the pred.“

“Usually have to get here early to get your hands on a pastry so was delighted to pull it off. Coffee is Ceremony, so that was yummy. The pastries are always interesting combinations of flavors I would never normally think of so their menu is always fun to look over.

Had a s’mores cookie on the spot and a crepe brûlée tart for later. Both were delicious! Tried The crab sando too; I wish had a little more of the sandwich filling to balance the bread but was still tasty.“

“Delivery appt for 9 AM I arrived at 4:30. Park in the street. I talked to one employee and he told me will unload you at 7. ???. You can arrived very early and park in same ST. Just don’t block gate. Also fast and friendly and free bagels “

“Cake In The City did an amazing job creating a special cake and cupcakes for my sister’s baby shower. They were one of the top 2 most talked about features at the baby shower- mostly because of how delicious and fresh everything was. They are going to be our go to bakery in Baltimore from now on. They also delivered locally which I really appreciated.“

“Went to the bakery for a cake and cupcakes for our son’s 1st birthday. Toy Story themed and they knocked it out of the park. The pizzeria and the guy behind the counter made my experience even better. He came in earlier than normal and made sure he had 8 pizzas ready for me to pick up so I could get everything at one stop. Shoutout to him he helped me more than he knows !“

“My friend purchased the sweet potato cake for my birthday and it is heaven! Definitely recommend this place!“

“Great place!! Pastries are super:)“

“What an amazing job Fenwick bakery did for a recent event I had. I called and asked for King cake for a New Orleans theme and they nailed it. Not only was it delicious but the customer service was outstanding. Thank you Carol for going above and beyond I highly recommend them for any occasion.“

“Swing by this bakery that’s been highly recommended by many friends who work at the Hopkins. My problem was that I came in the late afternoon, 90 mins before they’re closed. Therefore, they ran out of classic and almond croissants. Fine, I picked Spinach & Ricotta, Apple turnover, and Walnut danish. I did not try any of their desserts as I would like to make sure I like their pastries first before overspending if unworthy. The bakeries look very outdated and needed a makeover. This is a 100% take out bakery. No standing or seating inside. After I got home, tried the spinach & ricotta croissant, which was excellent but could be better. The layers can be improved. The next morning, I tried the walnut danish and apple turnover. They are unusually not sweet compared to the normal pasties sold from other bakeries. This is a GOOD thing but may not be the preferred sweetness level for the majority.

Parking: Paid Street meter parking or you can drive further turning to small alleys to find free street marking.“

“I love The Avenue Bakery's warm atmosphere , friendly staff and the delightful smell of fresh baked delicious treats. My family and I are always pleased with everything we purchase especially the sweet potato pies, bread pudding and wheat rolls all are outstanding !!“

From traditional conchas to savory cakes , the selection offers something for everyone. Each bite is a testament to the baker's skill and passion. It's a place where you can savor the authentic flavors of Mexican baking.“

“The best cookies ever! I love berger! I love that they're a Maryland staple. They're sweet but not too sweet, enough to fill that sweet tooth! Every time I see them in a store I buy two packs at a time. Maryland Pride! ❤❤❤❤“

“We held a luncheon for family and friends after a special event and could not have been happier with how it went. We called ahead a.few minutes before all 15 of us showed up and the staff didn't skip a beat. They graciously and quickly got us seated by combining tables together. Our waiter Noah was kind, patient and efficient throughout our visit. He even took a group photo for us. Everyone found delicious options off the menu and the out of towners couldn't say enough about how much they enjoyed this local spot. All of our food came out in a timely matter and was just excellent! We were so grateful for the fantastic hospitality from all the staff and even the manager checked in on us to make sure everything was good. If you've never been make it a point to visit this local gem; you want be disappointed!“

“Nice crew here. Saw me pull in and ran out to check my destination, immediately put me in a door. Pretty tight to maneuver and it will be a blindside 90 to get in the dock. Wasn't busy when I showed up. I can see how it could be a nightmare if it was though. Started loading me within minutes of hitting the dock. I did arrive about 45 minutes early.Assume there is no overnight parking from how small the place is and they also have day cab drivers that work here so they park all their trucks in the lot at night“

“Superior staff and the food is great. A wonderful atmosphere too boot. Can’t wait to visit again. Bon & Moon Halstead“
