50 Best Bakeries near Pleasant Ridge

“We ordered the chocolate chip cookies for a family party and they were a hit! I’ve tried all the cookie establishments in the area and these are by far better. They have the perfect amount of crunch on the outside, but gooeyness on the inside. We will be exclusively ordering from dough from now on.“

“Wonderful establishment and good people, I stop in every time I go by. Everything is great and the meat pies are awesome!! My son can’t get enough.“

“Any of their bake items are delicious. I love the lunch specials . And yes between my daughter and I we’ve tried them all . We’ve become regulars. Also a shoutout to the employees . Always a pleasure coming here.“

“Squash focaccia was amazingly light with just the right bite. Pumpkin bread moist with a delightful not overpowering amount of fall spices. Everything delicious!

We are spoiled by our local bakeries in Massachusetts and thought no one could come close. We were very wrong - wish we lived closer!!

Thank you for blowing us away! ❤️❤️“

“Karen at Artisan Buttercream created an absolutely stunning and delicious wedding cake for my niece’s big day. As a former wedding cake baker and decorator myself, I know the level of skill and artistry that goes into making a truly great cake—and Karen delivered on every level.
Not only was the design elegant and beautifully executed, but the flavor was exceptional. So many guests at the wedding came up to compliment how good the cake tasted, which says a lot! It's clear Karen puts great care into both the aesthetic and the taste of her creations.
Highly recommend Artisan Buttercream for anyone looking for a wedding cake that’s as delicious as it is beautiful. Thank you, Karen, for helping make the day so special!“

“Wow Kai! This amazing! I will come in here just to see Kai!! Truly the best human so friendly so helpful i truly wouldn’t want anybody helping me more then kai!! I always walk out feeling happy to have communicated Kai!! Makes my week 100 times better!!! I love this location and will always come just to see the friendly face!“

“This is the best cookie spot in Michigan I drive all the way from the East side just to get these cookies“

“Cookies are amazing even if they are warm or not still one of the best I’ve had. The atmosphere is dope the wall art is awesome and the customer service is on point! Huge shout out to the owners/operators of this fine establishment and I recommend going here over any other cookies spot in the Detroit Metropolitan Area“

“Best vanilla bean latte 👍🏻“

“OMG, the best cheesecake ever! The Banana cheesecake pudding is to die for.“

“THE BEST PIES. I’ve tried plenty bakeries but nothing compares to Cedarland for me. Just the perfect ratio of dough to filling, best texture, best flavors. You would never guess what gem of a place that is until you try it. Thank you for doing what you do and staying consistent♥️“

“Great people and delicious everything!“

“10/10 recommend! From customer service to a freshly baked “ready to go cake” absolutely amazing! We will be back for more of our families birthday cakes!! 🎂“

“One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had!“

“Great product with genius marketing. This location needs help. Staff was nice, but we stop often. Mistakes more than once so order needed to be redone, and I was also handed a box with icing all over the bottom. Overall decent place. I'm sure employees will improve with time and management.“

“The food was absolutely delicious!! we got the catfish, wings, yams and greens!! we felt like we were at gma's house!! and the sweet potatoe pie???? SUPERB!! We are from Ohio and WILL BE BACK!!“

“Delicious bakery items and phenomenal customer service! Enjoyed every item we bought:)“

“Unbelievably good. Obviously the pie is the star of the show. The flavors rotate, but the crust is always deliciously flaky with a perfectly seasoned, not-too-sweet filling. Don't miss out on the savory hand pie either!

Aside from the pies, everything else is also just really good. The other standouts for me are the savory bread pudding, the rosemary cookie, and the lemon poppyseed cookie, but everything behind the glass is phenomenal.

These sisters sure know how to bake. They're closing up their regular operation soon, but I'm optimistic that they'll find a new, more sustainable way to share their delicious baking with the community.“

“Tarboush Baker in Dearborn Heights makes the best ka’ak—perfectly baked, soft on the inside, and slightly crispy on the outside. Whether you get it plain, with cheese, or za’atar, it’s always fresh and delicious. Their manakish and cheese pies are also top-notch! Friendly staff and great service make this place a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“First experience at Mia’s, from a family of 4:

Maybe it’s my own personal experiences, but strip mall located coffee / bakery / lunch houses are hit or miss. We found this business while trying to hit a quick spot on our way home.

Just know from here on out - this spot HITS.

✅Excellent fall seasonal menu.
✅Coffee flights available.
✅Generous portion sizes.
✅Bakery items were tasty and well priced. ($0.95 for a peanut butter cookie is just unheard of these days)

Staff was friendly, kind and accommodating for our family.

They had a steady line but worked through it well and no one waited more than you’d expect to get your food and drinks.

If you’re in the neighborhood, you already know about this place. If you’re not from around the area - check them out 👍🏻“

“Order 3 pastries as well as a Dubai chocolate; the ladies forgot to pack the macaroons into the bag, but it was like 9:45 so I dont blame em. Everything did cost like 44 dollars. The people working there are really kind, which is why this review is 5 stars. I definitely reccomend trying the Dubai chocolate latte. It is definitely worth the 7 dollars ❤️“

“Make a 15 min drive just to have the food here. Love it“

“Thankful for AACYP, And Ayser for accommodating my photography Ad request last minute, she worked with me through various options and price range, and was able to provide me with a good business advice for advertisement. She is a dedicated person for her business. I recommend AACYP for your business advertisements.“

“She always amazes me with whatever she does besides being my friend ……..I placed a order for Patron infused strawberries and strawberry shortcake cupcakes delicious as always thanks again!🗣️🥰🗣️🥰🗣️😍🗣️😍“

“My first time was Thursday and I loved every bite!! OMG! I'm going back onday for a Hershey Butter Pecan Shake!!!! OMG! The donuts were fresh and the I got Coffee too! Yum!!! Oh I also tried a chocolate chip cookie it was good! Anyway, go and check them out. There short in staff but the lady working, she handled that line with ease and without us getting frustrated. 10stars for Miss Ma'am at the register 💪🏾 Great Spot... I recommend“

“There sandwiches are delicious!!! I would definitely recommend this restaurant to family and friends!“

“Our favorite place for cheese bread. It's a so delicious 😋 Staff are very friendly and courteous. Great business! ❤“

“the best bakery in town hands down“

“I drink most coffee black. It was hot, just brewed, and smooth. I recommend. Raspberry Torte had balanced sweetness, proper crumb, just enough fluff and moisture. Donya is a kind conversationalist.“

“I’ve been going there 30 plus years. Love the scallion and bbq pork bun. Great to bring to a party grab and go bakers dozen all individually wrapped. They use tongs placing them in bag FYI. All friends and family love them 😊“

“Great bakery!!! Almost every time that I am in the area, I always feel the need to stop by and get a sweet treat.“

“Great bread and rolls, friendly service and reasonable pricing.“

“BEST BREAD = SICILIAN LOAF I NEVER HAVE THESE TYPES OF LOAFS SLICED BECAUSE WE TEAR OUR BREAD LIKE GOOD ITALIANS AND THE LEFT OVER (IF ANY) SLICES WOULD DRY OUT TOO QUICKLY.“

“I always get the mango cakes, very tasty! Though I don't know if I'll get the largest size there. Last time and a separate occasion, the mango were overripe/ sitting out to long and were mushy. I usually go for the smaller sizes now and haven't had that issue.“

““Color Me Red” Cupcake was delicious! Friendly and knowledgeable staff! From the #BlackGirlFoodCritic“

“I’ve been coming for over a decade and the muffins are still amazing .“

“I have never once in all my years as a customer gotten home and thought... I've bought too much bread from the Secret Bakery.

It's easily some of the best food you can put in your mouth. Just stop in and buy something to eat already, you've been reading this review for too long.“

“The best cookies and cinnamon roll in Metro Detroit. The cinnamon rolls are huge, made fresh and served warm on the weekends. They are always a big hit at my Open Houses! Highly recommend both, and I look forward to trying the ice cream cookie sandwich. it looks amazing, you can customize your sandwich by choosing your choice of cookies and ice cream flavors.“

“If you’re looking for high quality, authentic tasting wood-fired pizza and don’t want to spend an arm and leg, then you have to come here! Whether you want a nice sit down dinner experience or just a quick take out order, Crispelli’s has you covered.“

“First time visiting and I left with the biggest smile. The owner's mother was such a joy to my family. Best experience hands down and you'll have to come back again and again because they're so many options. I highly recommend this place!!!“

“My husband surprised me for my birthday and got me an assortment of pastries that I love.

I’m always impressed by the attention to detail in each of Canelles decadent treats. From their beautiful presentation, all the way to balancing out different textures and flavor profiles, this is my favorite place to get treats for special occasions!“

“4 star, could have been 5star if they bake the bread a little longer

1. Location is convenient. I don't have to drive to Dearborn for man'oushé (flat bread) if I am nearby for work.
2 Everything is fresh, bread is roll off from a machine at the back and then bake in the brick oven. They need to bake it a little longer because the back of the bread is sort of white.
3. Meat bread is not oily for some reason. more tomato flavor compare to other bakery. Maybe that's how the owner likes it.
4. Zaatar flavor is mild, herb is not overwhelming. Maybe because I ate it when it was cold.
5. Cheese bread is good, bread is thick like pita bread which is odd.

Nice to see owner sitting there watching the whole operation.“

“My husband and I just got married at the end of September. He's Italian and his family comes here for many desserts and pastries. When I was considering who to go through for our wedding cake, Mannino's was the obvious choice! I don't have very many photos since we are still waiting to get them back from the photographer. We ordered a small, 1-tier cake just for my husband and I to eat, and 170 cannoli for the rest of our wedding guests. We had half with chocolate chips, and half with nuts. They were a big hit and all of our Italian family members loved them! Our cake was delicious as well, and Lisa was very accommodating while we tried to figure out what flavor and fillings we wanted.“

“Great place to try French pastries and great coffees. We tried chocolate croissant in the evening but it was nice flaky and exact amount of sweetness not overly sweet. Matcha latte was great just add a syrup if you like it sweet.Tiramisu also tasted very traditional. Quiet place to visit with max of 5 people. It is charming and cozy bakery.“

“We love iFreeze! We took our daughter who has Celiac Disease. They have items marked as gluten free on the menu. She had the S’mores ice cream and loved it. They were very knowledgeable about Celiac and cleaned the machines before use. They keep all GF items separated as well. It’s so important to us to have safe places for our daughter to eat and have dessert. Would recommend iFreeze to anyone!“

“Edit 10/26/25- I have gone in a couple times this year, most pastries are good still but I have run into a few that are not so good. The lemon poppyseed muffins was absolutely terrible, so dry and flavorless. The brownies are just to dense to enjoy.
The Custard torte cake was good, nice and light. I also really love the chocolate tort cake.
Great pastries and desserts. The staff is kind and helpful. Not a fan of them allowing beggers in the bakery to harass patrons.“

“These are the nicest people who own this bakery. Their cakes are absolutely the best. Crazy busy weekend now with communions but they still offered to make tiramisu cake fir my daughters birthday….can’t say enough good things about the people & their desserts!!!!“

“I have a lot of things to say about this place and I am going back to work tomorrow morning so I can talk about this place 🌬️💕💘“

“I’ve been going to this bakery for 35 years the best bakery in the whole world I promise you it taste the same since I was five years old nothing has changed. Consistency is key. In the best prices on the bakery that use all real ingredients low pricing on real ingredient these days are rare to come by. They’ve been open for over 60 years the best bakery and all of Detroit let alone the world to me.“

“Absolutely delicious! Since leaving New Jersey, which is the land of milk and good bread, I have committed myself to finding good bread here in metro Detroit. There have been many places that come close, but literally this is the best bread I've had in years. The staff and owners and chefs and everyone were just absolutely so friendly. They gave me some samples of foods that I'd never tried. They even offered some olives for me to eat. I hate olives, but I loved those olives! I cannot wait to come back.“
