40 Best Bakeries near Garner

“Great customer service, beautiful cakes and absolutely delicious! Our cake was the talk of the baby shower! Nana’s Lil Sweets is now our go to bakery for special events or when craving something sweet! Thank you Barbara and staff…fantastic job! 🙌🏼🥰“

“I waited outside the business due to visiting another and became interested after seeing all the traffic going in and out. I then decided I wanted to try a cookie and OMG they were so good!! So glad I tried as I will definitely be going back once I get some of the calories off...ate them all in one setting!! 😋“

“Recently while passing by a store, we decided to venture in and have a treat. The snickerdoodle cookies were absolutely to die for! The gentleman that served us was great. Greeted us as soon as we entered the store and was very helpful throughout the whole purchasing process. This is a great place to go for a spontaneous treat.“

“The cake was so amazing! One layer was pretty in pink, another the lemon curd. A customer for life.“

“I love these cookies. They taste great, just the right amount of sweet. I now have ordered Christmas duos for family in Colorado. Our family loves Southern Sugar Bakery. Thank you.“

“It’s a beautiful bakery, with kind staff and was overall a good experience. In my personal opinion the croissants are the absolute star of the bakery. The pimiento cheese croissant is what southern dreams are made of. The peanut butter cookies were good, as was the baguette (a little more salt and it would have been great, but that’s just being nit-picky). The cinnamon roll was a little on the dry side, maybe could have benefited from a little more glaze, but had a good flavor overall. The shortbread was the heartbreaker for me, but only because I really love shortbread and had high expectations. Shortbread is supposed to be very buttery, and I tasted very little butter. The glaze overpowered it a bit, and I think it messed with the texture as well. If it had been a bit thicker, I doubt the glaze would have affected it as it had. It’s still such a cute cookie, and it’s not the end of the world. Especially with the friendliness of the staff and the variety they had, I know it’s a lot of work and everyone is going to like different things. For me those croissants will be something I dream about, and I can’t say enough good things about. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.“

“I have been coming to Bolted Bread for many years. Their chocolate raspberry pull apart is one of the best pastries that I’ve ever had. Recently, I’ve been disappointed that they either have sold out or lacked the materials to make them that day. I hope this is a temporary situation. It would be too bad for such a great bakery to change.“

“I can’t say enough good things about Paul and Jack in Raleigh! Their desserts are absolutely excellent — from flaky croissants and creative pastries to rich cheesecakes and seasonal treats, there’s so much variety to choose from that every visit feels like a new adventure. The quality and flavors are consistently top-notch, and every item I’ve tried has been delicious. If you love great baked goods and a huge selection of sweets, this bakery is a must-visit!“

“The pumpkin pie we got for Thanksgiving was absolutely delicious. The buttery, flaky crust and perfect spice profile was perfect and we will be ordering another for Christmas and want to try the apple pie as well!“

“Awesome experience!

I called Cake Town to verify availability the week of my girlfriend’s birthday party with a special request regarding “cherry chips.” They happily offered to special order them and have her cake taken care of.

I gave them some basics around colors, flavors, and party theme and picked up a beautiful cake that perfectly aligned with our “scary/horror” theme.

Highly recommend checking Cake Town Bakery out!!“

“The best student center in NCSU. Stores, coffee shops are good!“

“the peanut butter oreo flavor was just right. not too overwhelming“

“UPDATED RESPONSE: The food here was excellent — great quality and outstanding flavor. The restaurant was very clean, which I really appreciated. They didn’t have bottled water, (update: they had filtered water better than bottled for free!) and the person taking our order wasn’t very friendly or welcoming (maybe he was having a bad day it’s hard to tip a cashier who isn’t friendly). However, the overall experience was still very positive. The food and cleanliness definitely make this a restaurant worth it!“

“I bought the Key Lime pie for my hubby's birthday and it was fantastic! Rich, creamy, with a perfect key lime flavor. Crust was light and just enough crunch. Definitely will order from Burney's again!“

“I walked in near closing, & the lady was friendly & welcoming. I told her my vision based on a dessert, and she made it happen. Build-Your-Own with icing, strawberries, and pretzels slaps!“

“Absolutely the best carrot cake that you will ever taste! Folks that don’t like carrot cake, eat this cake. Always so fresh, perfectly spiced, not too sweet. You will be hooked and this cake will be requested year after year!!! Thank you Carrot Cake Lady for another wonderful birthday cake! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡“

“I visit my daughter in Raleigh from Texas and she took me to this bakery last year and we bought a plain loaf of sourdough bread, it is the best and freshest I have ever had. I stopped in this past Sat and they only had rolls left. They were so delicious! Be sure to check out this business if you are anywhere near Raleigh on the weekend !“

“First time here and I was surprised. Nice and lots to choose from. The pastry I bought was so good and you really can’t beat the price. I’ll be back to try some other treats.“

“Had a chocolate chip cookie, a donut and a piece of coffee cake. Quite possibly the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had. Give anything from this place a try!!! I'll be looking for them in the future.“

“I needed a sweet treat for a Coworker's birthday and was amazed. Let me start by saying i was greeted with warmth by the Owner's mother (I'm going to call her Momma B) and we chatted a bit. I got a dozen assorted cupcakes and a slice of cake. When i say delicious...i mean it. The softness, the taste and the sweetest combined was mouth watering 😋 Highly recommended for your events!! Thank you for the experience ❤️“

“Best place to purchase bread without a doubt! So much cheaper than Food Lion or other retail grocery stores! Snack cakes less than 1/2 the price of retail grocery‼️ Staff is professional and courteous! Make you feel very welcome. Also they have a “Seniors” discount day!!“

“Amazing variety and quality of baked goods! I satisfied my sweet tooth and gifts for my GF friends. Also got my coffee fix. A cute quirky little bake shop showcasing many small businesses. 10/10 recommend!“

“Great selection of amazing pastries and cakes! Best Tres Leches cake in the area!🍰“

“Edible art did a great job with bringing my vision to life and of course it was very good as well.“

“I had a gift card given to me some 1.5 years ago, and just today made my way to the store! Felt adventurous and was craving some tropical fruits. I was blown away by the variety of exotic fruits, and the extensive choice of fish. The store is, certainly, a cultural experience! My 10-year-old and I each got a smoothie - mango and pear, but I feel curious about many of the other drinks and desserts that I’d love to try. They, also, have cooked/hot food there and will bring my husband next time since he loves Asian food. Can’t wait to go back!“

“MMMMM delish! We got an assortment of 6 cookies and devoured every single one!! There’s something special about their dough it’s light, flavorful and rich all in one yummy cookie! Will definitely be venturing back to try another assortment!“

“TODO muy rico. Fresco. El dueño muy querido. Y la muchacha trabajando tb. Lo recomiendo.“

“1st time at the market, 1st time visiting Raleigh!!! FANTASTIC boiled peanuts!!! AMAZING lemon creme cake and pound cake slice. I will be back for sure! The ambience and set up is VERY NICE. Very welcoming gentleman serving up the peanuts and lemonade!“

“I got the cucumber homemade kimchi, and the napa cabbage one too! The cucumber one was slightly sweeter, but still good, the cabbage one definitely had more tangy and spicy flavors. I also got the Strawberry Logie donut it was the best dessert ever!!! He was very nice.“

“PHENOMENAL EXPERIENCE with having the most delicious cake made for our son’s 21st birthday!! We don’t live in NC and totally went off reviews alone in choosing this team but WOW we were impressed! Easy communication, excellent price, and will highly recommend for all to choose. Thank you!!“

“Just discovered this place on Friday. The buttery smell is incredible inside and it more then lives up to expectation. Everything is delicious but the bacon cheddar scones are absolutely RIDICULOUS. Absolutely the best I have ever eaten. Can't wait to go back and try more...“

“This place is amazing. We are in town to visit the Dambo trolls at Dix park and I highly recommend stopping here. Coming from the dairy state, we know our ice cream and this was excellent. And of course, the cookies are fantastic!!“

“Wow! My husband and I have been dying to try Morning Rolls! We stopped this morning finally and so impressed. Not only were the cinnamon rolls the absolute best we’ve ever had…. I was honestly so blown away with the customer service. The gentleman at the register smiled, asked us how we were doing and said good morning to everyone who walked in. That alone has me sold all day long. Good customer service is so hard to find these days…. But kudos to Morning Rolls! You guys are awesome!“

“Great experience ordering catering from Zulias! The variety of sweet and savory roll ups was just fantastic! I loved the turkey cheddar and the blueberry- though a few people at my office felt the turkey was a little salty for their liking (not for me, though). The cinnamon rolls were outstanding- especially if you like lots of cinnamon flavor. The service was also excellent, as the owner reached out to me to make sure everything was satisfactory with our order. I look forward to ordering breakfast from Zulias again!“

“Muy bien! Yo sé un poco español pero ellos son muy paciente conmigo. Yo y mi novio encantamos ir comprar los tamales y empanadas para fin de semana. Son muy delicioso!“

“Yo nunca suelo poner comentarios, pero no es la primera vez que una de las trabajadoras tiene una mala actitud , yo encargué un pastel de 2 pisos con una semana de anticipación para una voda y quedé de recogerlo ala 1 de la tarde cuando yegue resulta que no estaba listo el pastel tuve que esperar 30 minutos más y por si fuese poco medieron el pastel en una caja de bolillo el pastel que encargué era de 2 pisos locual al ponerlo en esa caja de bolillo y recién echo termino echo un desastre para ocasión que era.“

“Had an excellent brewed coffee with a free refill. My wife had a latte, which she thought was great. I had an almond croissant, which was kind of ordinary, but good. My wife had a baguette sandwich which was very tasty. Very nice atmosphere and good downtown location.“

“I would highly recommend this business! The owner is extremely pleasant and easy to work with. She not only made a delicious cake, but also hand-delivered it to our apartment. The price of the cake was also super affordable. Overall, an amazing experience!“

“The best pretzels 🥨 in town great staff“
