23 Best Bakeries near Windham

“My go-to place for the best cold brew. The staff is the other best part; everyone’s super friendly, camaraderie is a highlight amongst the crew and they work hard for your generous - and much deserved - tipping. Seriously, I love this place.“

“I expected great coffee and got it, but the biscuits and scones were delicious- even better than my own homemade.“

“The chef being a James Beard award winner brought us here while visiting Portland. We ordered two of our favorite
breakfast items - an egg sandwich & a cinnamon roll. Both were phenomenal and probably some of the best food we ate while in town. Do not miss this place!“

“Crumbl cookie is so good sometimes but sometimes it’s too sweet and sometimes the cookies just don’t taste right and
crumble. I love the pink sugar. Thank you for making that No add it back to every week. Love your crumble.

“I visited ZuBakery 4 times in a row while visiting Portland this week. This bakery places a strong emphasis on the quality of the dough and their efforts are well reflected in the wonderful texture of the bread and sweet smell of yeast.

The apple galette is phenomenal. The apples on top are beautifully caramelized and not soggy (!). The crust is the best part and it is perfect; light and crunchy, but yet retains its structure and texture.

I had their ham and cheese croissant and it is excellent. This is not a butter heavy (I am sure a lot of butter goes in here, but you know what I mean) croissant where everything is impossibly buttery. And no, this is a not an airpocket filled croissant (horror) with a rockhard (or) sad droopy shell.
The outer shell is light and crispy. The quality of the dough really shines in the inner layers of the croissant-- the flavor of the dough comes forward and it is so delightful. Ham and cheese are generously added, and they are of a good quality.

Currant scone.. wasn't my favorite. Too dry.

Challah (Fridays only) was very good. It is dense (as it should) and the texture is on point. Flavor-wise, it is not sweet at all. (Personally, I like slightly sweeter challah).

If I had more time in Portland, I would have tried out their fresh baguettes... maybe next time.

Lastly, what the other reviewers say is true. They sell out quickly.. within 30min of the bakery opening time, crowd favorites are gone.“

“My favorite bakery! Every product is of the highest quality. Love the Danish, cinnamon buns. and the breads. And to top it all off, it is nestled in a small neighborhood.“

“Eighty-8 donuts catered a sweet breakfast the morning after our wedding at French’s Point in Stockton Springs, ME. Despite a cold November morning, they were absolutely amazing and our guests loved the hot and fresh mini donuts and coffee we sent them off with. They even had to-go boxes prepared so our friends and family could bring their favorite flavors home. This was the perfect way to end our wedding weekend! 10/10 would highly recommend their food truck for any event or large gathering, it was such a hit!“

“Great bread, and bagels. Simple yet amazing breakfast sandwiches, and the pastries are to die for! Great prices as well. The shop smells amazing, absolutely love
the atmosphere and the staff as well.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs little bump on doorway in!“

“Very friendly and very yummy“

“Amazing cakes! This was my first time ordering from Two Fat Cats. I ordered a chocolate chocolate cake for my son’s birthday and everyone was really impressed! Flavorful and perfectly sweet (but not too sweet) frosting and dense, melt in your mouth cake. Highly recommend!“

“Fantastic place to work, read, or just for family/friend meet-ups!“

“If you are anywhere near Kelly's don't pass up the opportunity for a great lunch. Stopped in yesterday and can't say enough about the great food and bakery items. My wife, grown daughter and myself all got different lunch items and all were fantastic. Also picked up desert items to go....sooooo delicious! Kelly and her staff couldn't have been more friendly, helpful, and timely. You don't want to miss this one!“

“Wanted a special cake for my daughter first birthday and am so pleased with the results! The cake is super cute and perfect for her party! Jessica was great to work with and even did a drop off which was incredibly helpful.“

“Amazing breakfast!! And the staff was quick and attentive!“

“Cute shop ! Yummy dessert! It leaves a light feeling and it’s so yummy ! It’s a must try ! I will definitely return !“

“Ordered a Peanut Butter pie for a coworkers birthday and it was one of the best pies I’ve ever ordered! Delicious and will definitely be ordering again! My office ate the whole thing within 3 hours of bringing it into the office. Thank you for the yummy pie!“

“I used to visit this place frequently and my last visit was more than 15 months ago.On my visit today I chose three flavors and they were all very different from the previous ones. Sadly, something changed in the recipe and I felt the lack of flavor.The service continues to be very friendly and helpful.“

“Very cute little queer friendly and affirming coffee shop/eatery/diner in Portland! We stopped in while in town visiting for some caffeination. These had to be one of the most perfectly made lattes we've ever had. Milk properly steamed to perfection, without any sweetener it wasn't the least bit bitter and had the best flavor ever. Service was extremely welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere, even just while waiting to get our drinks, was very cute. We'll definitely be stopping back in when we are in the are.

Parking: Street parking only and it looked in short supply, however, we got lucky and got an open spot right in front of the shop.“

“We went just a little while ago, for a Sunday, they still had a great selection even for us going so late! Tammy was so kind, she was an absolute delight! We will be back again, again and again! ☺️“

“The pulled pork Mac n cheese and sourdough bread was delicious, and these ladies are the sweetest! I will be back!! 😍“

“This was my favorite place to visit on our trip to Maine. When you walk in the door your olfactory senses are immediately satisfied and had me searching for a way to bottle up the smell and take it with me forever. The Whoopie Pies, Chocolate Dipped Whoopie Balls, Cookie Dough Balls and everything else was delicious. The owner was so nice and visited with us about our other trip destinations and even gave us a lunch recommendation for Alisson's Restaurant, which was also a very yummy place! Thank you!“

“What a lovely surprise to visit this shop. Just what this area needed. Breakfast sandwich s. Sweets, fudge. Coffee and a pastry. Perfect“
