31 Best Bakeries near Bellbrook

“Tina was so helpful making sure my son got his gluten free, dye free cake and my nephew with his tree nut allergy could have some too!! Everyone said “this is the best cake I’ve ever had” and it was relatively healthy 🤣 thank you so much, Tina!!!“

“Adonica was great to work with! She instantly saw our vision and knew exactly what we wanted. Our cake was absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be more happy! The chocolate/peanut butter cake was delicious! We would highly recommend to anyone in the Dayton area!“

“I'm a regular have eaten at Grist at least twenty times and it's ALWAYS good. This restaurant crafts the most amazing, 100% homemade, unique culinary delights that are so far elevated beyond what you typically find around downtown or even Dayton at large. The dishes, soups, and desserts are consistently excellent. While the service is usually fast, when they are busy, the food can take a while. I once waited nearly thirty minutes for a sandwich. They apologized and gave me one of their amazing chocolate chip cookies to make up for the long wait. The price can be a touch high for a lunch, but the quality and portion sizes are there. I see a lot of new staff so I can tell the owners are working on the improving their processes and service speed. Also the staff are always super nice and helpful. Thank you Grist for being in downtown Dayton.“

“Awesome pies and brownies! I occasionally pop in around lunch time and grab a bunch of random slices (whatever they haven't sold out of that day) to share with co-workers. Have never had a bad one yet and everyone loves them! Service is always top-notch too!“

“We ordered one of their cakes for a very important birthday! The strawberry cream cake was delicious, filled with strawberries, peaches, and kiwi. The cake was beautifully decorated and tasted amazing. Also the chocolate bun with custard filling was so good!“

“My fam from OKC sent me a mixed box to Grandma Sandy. I came home to a box on my porch. No labels no to or froms and all cookies were carrot cake.The store made everything right for me!!The order was delivered to wrong place. Amazing cookies and great staff“

“First time going. I have been missing out on a wonderful and delicious place. Very busy at lunch time on a Friday. Loaves of bread fresh out of the oven, delicious sweet treats. LOVE the pretzel twists!! Should have gotten more. Next time will try some of the other breads and baked goods.“

“Coffee Hub catered coffee and tea for the wedding reception we hosted. The coffee was hot and fresh and delicious. Cynthia delivered it on time and set up everything beautifully, having this catered was the perfect addition to our reception!“

“We had an absolutely infuriating experience with Butter Cafe, which I'll never go to again, so after being completely skipped on the waiting list, we zipped over to this place and sat at the counter, and had the best godamn breakfast I've had in my entire life. That was 2 years ago, and I can't stop thinking about how good this food is.“

“My sister and I stopped in on a busy Friday afternoon to get a little pick-me-up, and I'm so glad we did! My soy chai latte was amazing (whatever soy milk they use made a delicious foam on top) and my sister really enjoyed her drink as well. Everyone working was so kind and the atmosphere of the place was so inviting. If I were local, I'd be here frequently.“

“How is it that this place is less than 10 minutes from me and I’d never been there until today? All I can say about the pretzels is they are AMAZING. The lady handed me my bag of pretzels and they were nice and warm. I couldn’t wait until I got home to eat one, so I ate it one in the car. My first time here but definitely not my last. Your pretzels rock!“

“The pretzels are excellent and this is worth a stop if you are in Dayton. I would even say it is worth a road trip. If you are like me, I had never eaten a fresh pretzel from a bakery before so opening up a bag of a half dozen pretzels and trying a fresh, out of the oven, pretzel was a new experience and I am not going back. My recommendation: get some fresh pretzels and a bag of frozen along with them. The frozen pretzels can be warmed up in the microwave, oven, or air fryer. I would say they are at about 95% the same experience as the fresh pretzels out of their oven.“

“I don't recall how I originally learned about Boosalis; I think it was on some award list of best bakeries perhaps? Whatever the reason, I had it on my list of places to try when I was in Dayton early last year, but I wasn't able to make it there that visit. This time around, I couldn't miss out and went in on a weekday morning. Inside, I was greeted by a number of customers sitting around, eating pastries, and sipping on coffee. The pastry case in front was fully stocked with some very delicious looking croissants and other delights. We had a tough time deciding what to get - we wanted to try everything, but we didn't have the stomach space! After pondering for a while, we made our decision. Chocolate Croissant ($3.65) - Two small chocolate batons are baked into this pastry at the bottom, as is tradition. They are not too sweet and add a very nice cocoa richness that works well with the croissant. The rest of the croissant is buttery with well laminated layers that meld together but are also fluffy. The top few layers are crispy and well browned. They flake off easily in buttery flecks. I found this croissant to be pretty cheap for a chocolate croissant from an artisan bakery and overall found this to be a solid chocolate croissant in general. (4/5) Kouign Amann ($2.85) - This kouign amann is pretty small - around 2 inches across. There's melted caramelized sugar surrounding the edges and in a layer on the bottom. Additional sweetness from pearl sugar is added right in the center of the pastry. The pastry is very well laminated, with distinct layers that peel off easily. The dough seems to be salted a bit and has a somewhat bitter flavor to it. It doesn't seem like the dough itself is sweetened at all, so the middle portion is buttery, but not sweet. it's not nearly as buttery as the chocolate croissant though and there's larger air pockets compared to the croissant. There's a good crunch on the outside from both the browned dough and the sugar on the outside. (4/5) I can see why Boosalis Baking and Cafe is popular. Both pastries we tried were solid and I can easily recommend the place if you're looking for something nice for breakfast or just a treat for yourself.“

“They went over and above to make sure I could get a cake made for my son's birthday when 5 other bakeries wouldnot do it. Even when they said they were over booked, they took my order!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!Parking: Adjacent parking lot next to business, PLENTY.of spaces!Kid-friendliness: Who doesn't like a bunch of fabulous cupcakes and treats displayed for little eyes to see!“

“I genuinely appreciate Ghostlight's vegan offerings. Even though Dayton is the sixth most populous city and the state's fourth-largest metropolitan area, the vegan selections in Dayton are pretty slim, so having a coffee house that has great treats and drinks that a vegan can imbibe is very much appreciated.“

“We've been eating here for years. Did not see a change in quality after the change of ownership. Wish they would bring back the free muffin on your birthday thing, because it was a tradition with my kids. But where can you go wrong with a cheesecake muffin.“

“Absolutely phenomenal. I can't express how much you need to stop in this bakery and try something out. Pastries, coffee and others. You will not be disappointed!! The young woman and gentlemen were so nice and went out of their way to make sure i was happy with exactly what i wanted. I will be a returning customer. Thank you“

“This incredible bakery did desserts for our wedding and they were TO DIE FOR! Soo many compliments on all of the yummy baked goods, and the staff is soo nice! We loved working with them! The tasting helped so much, and they were so accommodating in fitting us in.“

“Cake shop next to Mike's car wash. Cute decor in a small strip mall, Reserved parking for customers. The two cakes were delightful, very moist, no dryness at all. Very clean, looks like they dust daily! online ordering, with occasional 2 for 1 offers. Highly recommend and we will be back at the end of the month for a new order!Parking: Looks to be about 3 reserved slots and other available spots in front of the strip mall.“

“Ordered 12oz hot Van. Latte, 12oz hot Mocha, The Farmer w/ham, The Lunch bagel w/ham. Not my typical coffee flavor profile, but it was delicious. We could clearly taste the fruity notes. They were out of bagels, but the sandwhiches on English muffins were tastey. Quick friendly service. Was hoping for a bigger baked goods selection .. wanted that basic choc. Chip cookie ?. Will deff. be back! This was Midtown location & had easy access for parking.“

“I ordered a strawberry white chocolate cookie cake for my Mom's birthday, and it was delicious! Adam was so helpful in customizing the cookie cake and placing an order for me. The cake was ready by the scheduled pick-up time, and my mom LOVED it! It was very soft and rich. The strawberry flavoring in it was so tasty and fresh. Highly recommend them!“

“Highly recommend you visit American Classic Donuts. The donuts are very very good. Probably best cake donuts I’ve had. Definitely grab some donut holes to go as well. Service was great. Coffee was hot. Conversation was fun. Bring your business and your sweet tooth here. You’ll be glad you did!“

“Delicious cakes!!! My favorites are the chocolate raspberry- midnight baby cakes and the lemon baby cakes they have every spring. They'll do special orders if you give them 2 days notice. They're definitely my go-to cupcake source!“

“Sandwich and salad shop that also makes custom wedding cakes and other baked sweets, and caters events. Open for lunch. Casual cafe atmosphere. Healthier menu, no fried stuff. Owner usually present. Attentive staff. Reasonably fast service. Eat in or take out. Has a small, clean, bright, and quiet dining area. Moderate prices. Nearby municipal or free street parking. A few tables on the sidewalk for outdoor dining.“

“I was torn between the Chocolate Mousse cake and the Black Forest Cake. Andie’s Cakery/Kelly was so patient with me when I was trying to make my decision. I ended up with a Chocolate Black Forest Cake — the best of both worlds! Funny thing is I am typically not a big chocolate fan but this cake was amazing! It was so moist and so delicious! It was my birthday cake and my family thoroughly enjoyed it! I found a new place to buy all my cakes!!! Thank you, Andie’s Cakery!“

“Very cute and homey market with plenty of food options and great local vendors! Everyone is very friendly and I think this is a great place to get local produce and other items. I would def stop by for lunch if I'm in the area too. I love that it's indoors so you can access it year round.“

“I have never had a more pleasant experience at an establishment than I have at Graeter's in Beavercreek. The manager at the time, Kyle, was extremely patient and kind. Kyle went above and beyond to spoon-feed me taste samples as my recent surgery required my arms to be restricted. I eventually ordered a milkshake for easier consumption, but Kyle insisted on spoon-feeding me a triple scoop banana split with hot fudge, strawberry topping, whipped cream, pecans, and a cherry. Kyle was a blessing and gave me hope that this world still has wholesome and generous people. Kyle's hospitality and professionalism is amazing.“

“Ordered vegan cupcakes for a baby shower and they were big hit! Very moist and each flavor was delicious! The icing was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive.Dietary restrictions: A quarter of the guests were vegans and we wanted to make sure the bakery we chose was only vegan or at least vegetarian. All the ingredients were kosher and good quality.“

“I love Cheryl’s cookies! It’s been a family favorite since I can remember. They are always so delicious and you can freeze them or just eat right away like I do! You can even order online &get it delivered and they have gifts for any occasion! Plus they have a large bake sale twice of year which is amazing! I like to stock up and give them away as gifts! These are a must try!!“

“I’m a regular and just felt I should share. The lovely young lady who prepares my order makes my day every time I come in. I can tell she’s highly intelligent and knows how to take care of her customers. She’s phenomenal at what she’s does. I hope you guys are paying her what she deserves. Juliane you do great work!!“
