50 Best Bakeries near Pelham

“I stopped in recently to pick up a very last minute cake for a birthday celebration, no pre order made. There were so many choices. I picked up a small strawberry shortcake (made with fresh strawberries) and it was a huge hit! Like other reviews mention, this is an “old school bakery” vibe, no frills, just a large variety of home made delicious treats and reasonably priced. I’d highly recommend to anyone in the area in need of a special order dessert, last minute needs, or just something really yummy to enjoy! ***cash only“

“The cake was an amazing part of our celebration !! Thank you to everyone at Flour Power for being so delightful to work with and for being so accommodating. I definitely will be using them again. I would highly recommend them to anyone who’s looking for an amazing cake for any celebration.“

“If you’re ever in the Bronx and you don’t stop at Gino’s Pastry Shop, you’re missing out on a piece of real New York history. This Arthur Avenue staple has been serving up authentic Italian pastries for decades, and it’s exactly what you want from an old-school bakery — no frills, just flavor and tradition. The cannoli? Legendary. They fill them fresh to order, and the shells are crisp, flaky perfection with creamy ricotta that tastes like it was whipped up by someone’s Nonna in the back. The sfogliatelle and lobster tails are equally iconic — sweet, buttery, and loaded with filling. Don’t sleep on the rainbow cookies either — they’re dense, almondy, and always spot-on. The shop itself is cozy, with that classic Italian-American charm. Gino and the crew treat you like family, whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth. Prices are super fair for the quality, and it’s cash-only — so come prepared. Bottom line: Gino’s isn’t just a pastry shop, it’s a Bronx institution. Worth the trip, worth the calories, and worth every bite.“

“My husband and I made the long drive yesterday (2 1/2 hrs each way) from upstate NY to visit our daughter in NYC just for the day. While strolling around her neighborhood we came upon your lovely bakery and cafe and after eyeing the beautiful carrot cake in the window, we had to go in. Carrot cake is my favorite sweet treat. There were so many beautiful choices, but we got 2 slices of carrot cake to take back home with us. After the long drive back home we were really looking forward to a piece of cake and a cup of coffee. I opened one of the beautifully packed boxes, which revealed an enormous slice of yumminess!! The slice was big enough for at least 3 people. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Everything about this cake was phenomenal. The frosting was outstanding, the cake was so flavorful and moist. It was the best we’ve ever had. We have enough left for a few days. I’m so glad we stopped in. It was a great way to end our lovely day in the city and will most certainly go back on our next trek in . I will also have to get our daughter pick up some baked goods when she’s coming home for a visit. I highly recommend Crumbly Cafe & Bakery😊😊“

“My first time trying coco bread with beef patty. Very interesting though to me to have the beef patty inside the coco bread. But it works good together. Their beef patty got good spice in it. Definitely good beef patty to get. They do closed at 4 and line can be long out to the door.“

“love this place! the people are very nice and friendly“

“I have used Nerwan for a couple of specialty cakes. Very talented, very accommodating, very delicious, and spot on service. This young entrepreneur went from working from home to a beautiful little location. It is a pleasure to contribute to her rise in this field, so give her a shot for your baking needs or just stop by and try her products you certainly will be pleasantly surprised and pleasantly satisfied.“

What!!! The mini Donuts 🍩 they were such a hit. I truly cannot recommend Crepe House enough!!! Everything tastes freshly made!!!!“

“I saw this bakery snuggled away while driving past it & knew I had to return. The inside is nice & clean. It's Filipino style desserts which is lovely. They have a large selection of dessert items to choose from.

On the weekend's they sellout fast so get here early. I had their Banana bread loaf which was my favorite of everything. It was so soft and warm, wish I'd gotten more of it.
The burnt basque cheesecake was nice & decadent. The BonBons were absolute perfection. They have a seasonal and rotating menu which always has something delicious to offer.

They have these adorable boxes to pack the food in with a colorful pink theme. The staff is kind & helpful. They have a small lot to park your car in which is appreciated. I've honestly never been to a dessert shop such as Fern & Aurora, it's a nice change from the regular ole baked goods. I highly recommend everybody to come check them out.“

“My friend picked up an assortment of treats for my birthday, everything was so delicious✨Red velvet cupcake and The pistachio thingy were my favorites❣️Have to go soon & try more treats🥰“

“The cookies are good but a bit over rated. I love the cool flavors and the fact that the menu changes weekly but sometimes the cookies are way too sweet. There is usually a long line at this location but the employees are pretty fast so the wait is never more than 5-10 minutes. It would be nice if there were places to sit inside the establishment.“

“Lulu's Bakery is absolutely one of the most professional accommodating bakery I have ever dealt with. The quality appearance and taste was phenomenal. My mother's birthday was a success thank you so much I will always use this bakery for all of my parties. Dulce de leche 4 layer cake with jumbo dulce de leche cupcakes!“

“They did an amazing job on the BURN CAKE they created for my friend for his birthday, Vanilla 8" round cake with vanilla filling. Super professional and very creative. They were patient and understanding as I chose them to place my first ever cake order with and I chose correct. The cake was made within a week spand and price was very reasonable. Will order Birthday cakes from them again.

Kid-friendliness: They make cakes for every occasion.“

“best currants roll, canele, curry puff, cookies cakes alll soooo delicious. All freshly made. Vegan, vegetarian, organic, sugar-free, gluten-free and more! check her out in Ditmars Astoria“

“Got the popular pistachio raspberry cake slice and the mango passion fruit mousse cake. They were both great. The cake slice looks slim but is quite filling. The mango passionfruit mousse had a coconut base which was a little too sweet but the tanginess from the mousse balanced it well. Overall, it’s a decent spot to go to for those sweet cravings.“

“Best tres leches in the world so soft & well made that you can really enjoy the flavors! The cake itself is Delicious I been a big fan of this tres leches for many years now & wouldn't change it for no other.“

“their mini's are just so good. good enuff that you don't even miss the crust.“

“Michaeli Bakery is a new kosher bakery that is already famous for their exceptionally delicious chocolate babka! They are also creating a reputation for having phenomenal rugalach! Today I purchased halva rugalach, that was delicious along with their chocolate rugalach! They’re located on East 90th Street just off First Avenueon the north east side of the street. They are closed on Saturday.“

“Fantastic, good quality gf options! Lovely store front with both amazing gluten free options (scones, cookies, bread, sandwich’s, and other goodies!) and a cafe with coffees, teas, matcha). I always look forward to visiting.“

“Seriously the BEST bagels EVER!! We're from California and I grew up eating bagels and deli... there are no bagels that even compare to Utopia bagels.
Service was excellent, took a little while as it was SO busy but it was absolutely worth the wait!! Obviously amazing when locals are lined up out the door to get bagels.
We were waiting for our order and the nicest man with a New York accent asked our boys if they've ever had a fresh bagel out of the oven, we of course said No, and he gave them a fresh, hot bagel that was to die for!!
My only negative is that we don't have a Utopia bagels in California hahah! Let me know when you want to open one near me!🤩“

“We ordered a custom/specialty birthday cake (25 person) for my daughter’s birthday this weekend and I couldn’t recommend this bakery more! The cake was beautiful (Cookie Monster cake on the right) , exactly as I described and delicious. We went with red velvet - cake was MOIST and cream cheese frosting was perfect. Filomena even accommodated my last minute request for cake colors. I will definitely be ordering from them in the future.“

“The Best Tres Leches Cake!!“

“Used to go the Mount Vernon shop when I was a kid, then after the fire and they moved to the Bronx..followed them down there- EVEN when the current owner bought from the gentile older man from MV... "Paul" has kept up standards. The Coco Breads are THE BOMB - I'd know, I was taught to make them at the bakery my Granny worked in Mo'bay every summer! A MUST HAVE !!!! Go out of your way. Brave the parking situation. DO IT, you will not regret it!“

“Coffee is amazing! Good cocoanut macaroon..“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I tried the pastries at this place and they were absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and put love into their baking. The atmosphere is cozy, the staff is friendly, and everything is super clean. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great bakery experience. A hidden gem worth visiting!“

“Bureks are super fire. This place sometimes gets crazy busy. It’s a small no frills spot but definitely one of my favorite places to eat in the area. The meat burek is good but I think I like the spinach and cheese more. Would highly recommend if you haven’t tried it already.“

“Best baklava ive ever had, i love it. Friendly employees most of the time. It's cash only.
About $16 per pound, but definitely worth it. Everything is fresh bc they are very busy all the time. You can get a nice mix of different types of the sweets for $10 or $20.“

“I love Zeppieri's Bakery. The lobster tails are the best and they make seasonal cupcakes and cookies that are out of this world. The bread is the absolute best!!!! The ladies at the counter are kind, even when super busy, polite and knowledgable always cheerful and sweet. I adore this neighborhood gem!“

“Walked by the other day and ordered one of the croffle breakfast sandwiches and it was so delicious! It’s a great combo of sweet and savory and the cheese was a perfect blanket for the eggs and bacon. I also got two mochi donuts (green tea and purple sweet potato) and those were great as well!“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Is it the best Jamaican beef patty I've ever had? No but overall our place that makes handmade Jamaican beef patties with a good overall flavor I recommend it. Best thing definitely has to be the crust I just wish for $3 it was a little bit more meat / seasoning. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.

“Absolutely delicious little bakery with the most wonderful delights and snacks. The staff is recently welcoming and friendly, going out of their way to ensure that I had everything exactly the way I wanted. I love coming here for coffee with my friends, where we can actually have a civilized conversation and it isn't a silly scene. The desserts are incredible, the baked goods are of excellent quality, and the breakfast items are wonderful and savory. I cater for my colleagues from here all the time. Parking is super convenient, and the location is comfortable. One of the best!“

“Been coming here my entire life, my parents started coming mid 80's. Love love the cheese cake!!!! The bread is so fresh. The aroma when you walk through the doors, or even walking up to the entrance is amazing. I end up buying more than intended but always worth every penny.“

“I would like to take a moment to thank my renter for bringing me carrot cake from your business, which was considerately placed on ice and transported to Fort Myers, FL, as a gesture acknowledging my appreciation for carrot cake. I must say that your carrot cake is outstanding. Exceptional, and I wish there were an option to give more than five stars, as your dessert certainly merits 10 stars ⭐️.“

“My absolute favorite yellow cake 🎂 with chocolate 🍫 frosting taste homemade and made with love. Definitely, will be ordering from LaSweetsNY for my next celebration. Support small business and I enjoy buying Black. (A+). Met the owner yesterday. Though the store hours have changed to opening at 11am, she permitted to make my purchase. Ms. L, was welcoming, sincere and a precious soul. Thank you Ms. L. Verrie“

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST ITALIAN BAKERY in the world! I’ve tried others in Westchester! No comparison! Worth the trip to the NE Bronx! I always pre-order, as parking near there can be challenging! Helps to have a copilot in the vehicle so one can double park! Still very much worth the trip!“

“I stopped to get a Dominican cake for a special birthday, when I walked in she greeted me and everything looked delicious I settled for a cake and Carolina wrote HB beautifully, the cake was delicious and not overly sweet just perfect. Am glad I gave this place a try 👏👏“
