50 Best Bakeries near Shaker Heights

“word cannot even describe how heavenly these cookies and baked treats are. The smores bars instantly transport me back to my grandma's house, in front of the wood stove putting together that messy concoction, yet all you need is a napkin. I found them at UH farmers market but will definitely be ordering more.“

“I had me a Carmel Ribbon Frappe. Really good. I can't make it home with the cookies I eat all of them.“

“On The Rise Bakery is a must-visit for pastry lovers in Cleveland. Their croissants are heavenly - buttery, flaky, and with the perfect balance of sweetness. I highly recommend the raspberry croissant, but the almond is also delicious. They also offer coffee and tea to pair with their baked goods, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Haven't tried the sandwiches yet, but everything else looks amazing!“

“My daughter and I went into Crumbl this week and we were so excited to try a new flavor this week! I had the confetti cake cookie and it was a confetti in my mouth of flavors! It was amazing. My daughter grabbed the strawberry cheesecake cake and it looked amazing she took two bites and said it was too sweet for her...insert sad face. Overall it was a good visit outside of the young people that work in the evenings, they never speak when you come in and you have to get their attention for them to help you on top of they act like it's a hassle to help or work at work...the irony in that is insane. Luckily they have multiple locations so we will visit another one in the future.“

“their Sammie's, their quiche, their baked yummies all are amazaballz! I'm so happy they are in Larchmere & pray they are a smashing success & stay a part of our community.“

“I placed a last minute order and it didn't effect the pick up time or quality of our order. Our order was ready when we arrived. The store was clean. The staff was friendly! This was our first time ordering from this location, we had a positive experience and we'll surely choose this location in the future!“

“Boba tea in so many flavors! Chicken teriyaki is delicious, as is all the buns and treats.“

“I worked across the street from them and eat there all most every day and love their food and everyone that works there great people“

“I love it, the best!! In orlando!!“

“Absolutely 100% Yes 100 PERCENT …the BEST French bakery outside of Paris! THE FRESH BREADS And breakfast croissant sandwiches are amazing! Along with pai au raisen… apple tart, cinnamon raisin bread beyond belief! AND I GUESS I’M NOT THE ONLY ONE BECAUSE WHEN I WENT IN ON SUNDAY AFTER MASS IT WAS STRIPPED CLEAN OF ALL BREAD AND PASTRIES… LOL I GUESS THE WORD GETS OUT! It’s not only the bread that are fresh and wonderful including sourdough and baguettes beyond compare… It is the friendliness and wonderful staff who make it a great place to enjoy a visit whether it’s breakfast lunch or more !!!!✨💕✨✨☀️☀️☀️✨ thank you ! Thank you Brian Evans and On the Rise Artisan Bread staff✨💕✨“

“Second time here after a couple of years and am so glad to see it have expanded to more options for savoury/ nutritious foods as well as their delicious pastries. It’s giving “Luna” but with a more modern and minimalist style! Happy to have brought my mum since the pastries are always great.

The only qualm I had was how the manager or owner responded to my mum requesting more milk in her cappuccino, as if we don’t have any knowledge in coffee. The foam was not foamy or thick with a ton of bubbles inside the foam. As if they didn’t tap it before pouring it in. He explained the drink to her and had a perplexed judgment look on his face. I almost wanted to intervene and ask if he wanted to try the drink himself. I don’t have an issue with people informing us how the drink is supposed to be made, but the assumption that the customer is not informed rather than, “hey maybe the barista had a faulty drink this one time” or adjusting to my mum’s preference, came off strange. The coffee was bitter, which is why she asked for more milk. I wish they had been kinder in responding to an older foreign lady or ask what was wrong while explaining their reasonings“

“Finally made my way into Sweet Corner Cakes. This place is amazing and the gals whipping up these fantastic confections could not be more friendly and sweet. Truth in advertising.“

“My husband and I got married earlier this month and were referred to White Flower Cake Shoppe for our wedding cake! They made it extremely easy- we sent inspiration pictures and they made it come to life! Absolutely beautiful and tasted even better! Thank you!“

“Bought 2 jumbo cupcakes just before closing and the staff was just as friendly as if I walked in right after they opened. The pineapple upside down cupcake was creative decadent and delicious! I gave the cookies and cream cupcak3 to a friend who doesn't usually go for sweets but he raved about that cupcake for days! Definitely will be back :)“

“Old school donut and pastry shop. Everything I've tried has been amazing!!“

“I go there every week to buy food and/or baked goods. They have catered parties for me! Highly recommended!“

“Always stock up on rye bread when in town. It was still steaming when being sliced. SO DELICIOUS!Somehow several boxes of cookies, bags of assorted pastries, and some brown mustard made its way into my bag too!“

“Mitchell was amazing! Even during the busy Friday night feast, he went above and beyond, running around to get everything I wanted and even stepping outside to grab me a loaf of bread. He was efficient, thoughtful, and incredibly sweet. Thank you, Mitchell!!“

“Thank you for supporting the Greater Cleveland Food Bank and CHANGING MY LIFE with your sweet potato cheesecake!“

“What a treat to find this bakery! From the pastries to the coffee, atmosphere to the communication, Brittaney and Craig have created a very special place in Newburgh. I picked up a larger to-go order for a business meeting and it was a big hit with our group. Looking forward to visiting again, soon!“

She provided the most beautiful and delicious desserts for our associate appreciation event, and they were a huge hit with everyone. You can really tell she puts love and care into everything she bakes. Anita was professional, prompt, and so easy to work with throughout the entire process. Highly recommend her for any event!“

“Always such good cakes! I usually order their Cassata cake and it's always great, and have gotten the cupcakes and chocolate covered strawberries on occasion and they have always been amazing as well! This year I ordered the chocolate lovers cake and it was just as delish as the other items I've ordered! I deff reccomend them! 🍰🎂“

“Nadine did a Paw-Patrol themed cakes for my twin girls 4th birthday. She did a fabulous job!! My twins were sooo surprised and very happy!! Nadine was very helpful and kind from the minute we walked into her shop. I called first to make sure she could do a Paw- Patrol themed cakes, she had the declaration ready to show us. She also had great visions in her mind, she definitely executed her vision. The cakes were very fresh the icing was not too too sweet it was light and fluffy, the cake tasted great!! 😋 I will use her again when I need a cake. I would also definitely recommend her. The cake was done on time and also within a few days notice, which I greatly appreciated.“

“Always stock up on rye bread when in town. It was still steaming when being sliced. SO DELICIOUS!Somehow several boxes of cookies, bags of assorted pastries, and some brown mustard made its way into my bag too!“

“Totally agreed with Candise Bivens‘s comment from below. The ladies at Payne avenue are rude and not friendly at all. I like the service at Cleveland heights location wayyyy better.“

“We have ordered before and always get yummy things. Today, she saved the day. We have our big FUNraising event this evening. Problem elsewhere with a photo cake. She helped us at the last minute to make it all work out. A pleasure to work with and sooo wanting a happy customer. Will definitely order again. Thanks again for your kindness and help❤️❤️❤️“

“I want to say thank you, thank you, thank you to Ethan and his staff for doing such an absolutely amazing job at my daughter's wedding this past weekend. Ethan is the best! He is a pleasure to work with, he knows his job and does it very well. The servers were so kind and worked so hard while keeping a smile on their faces at all times. And the food...it was incredible. I am a picky Italian when it comes to Italian food and Alesci's has some of the best Italian food in Cleveland. Everything tasted fresh, homemade and authentic and my guests LOVED the food which makes me that much happier. This is the second wedding that Alesci's catered for me. I have 2 more kids to marry off and will no doubt be calling on Alesci's again! 5 stars on all accounts.“

“I LOVE this small discounted bread store with both day old & fresh items. Items vary by day. They also carry popcorn, snacks, pasta noodles, condiments, soup mixes, cookies, candy bars & candy, chips & and the list goes on. I only purchase my bread, buns & sweets here at these amazing prices. Schewebel's is worth the stop, even if a bit out the way with grocery store prices these days check them out.“

“Absolutely beautiful and delicious cakes! Shae made a beautiful cake for my son’s first communion. She is very professional and prompt. She delivered the cake on time and made sure to give us instructions and a box to transport once the event was over. The cake was a great hit and made our special day complete. This was my first time ordering and tasting her cakes and I’m so happy I chose her to make our cake. I will definitely be ordering more cakes from her.“

“The breakfast sandwich was so good. The bagels tasted very similar to the ones in NYC!! My mother was raving about it all weekend, and how it was one of the best she’s ever had! The prices are very good for the area and the staff is super friendly.“

“Heard about this place from a coworker. Not easy to find - the owner runs her business out of her house. Asian bakeries/patisseries are hard to come by in the Cleveland area so naturally I was excited to try and was not disappointed. Ordered a box of pastries as well as their green tea roll cake. Croissants are the best I’ve had in Cleveland. So many flaky layers, perfect texture, just the right amount of sweetness. Green tea roll cake was also phenomenal. Had bits of red bean and the cream was light and airy. The cake itself was soft and moist. Will be coming back. Highly recommend“

“The staff are quick, efficient, and some of the friendliest around.“

“Stopped into Unger's for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. It looks like they’re doing some renovations, so parts of it have that old-school charm while other areas are getting a bit of a refresh. Other spots look like they need scrubbing. The donuts were excellent—fresh, flavorful. Self-serve. You can tell this place has been around a while. Some unique candy options I have not seen before. A payphone too!? No longer in service, I checked.“

“Ordered a gluten-free strawberry casada cake for my 33 year old nieces birthday...she never had casada despite being a pastry chef! It was awesome! She loved it too because it wasn't overly sweet! Great job 0:-)“

“Michele made a delicious cake for my Mother In Law’s retirement party! She was very accommodating to a nut allergy and the cake was phenomenal!“

“Great pizza and desserts!“

“Your cakes are so addicting! I know there are 4 servings.....but for my family and I....it's one!!! They were in Meijers here, but they are not anymore. Any chance they will make a return????“

“Treats were delicious. Workers were nice and helpful. Even the other patrons were nice. Great job Maple Heights. I know no community is perfect or without its problems, but to say i was beyoind IMPRESSED would be an understatement. I wish had more experiences like the one I had at Baraona's in Maple Heights. First time at Baraona's and first time in Maple Heights.“

“Aladdin’s Bakery is more than just a place to grab incredible food—it’s a Cleveland institution built on family, tradition, and heart. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the pride and care that has gone into this bakery for decades. The pita bread is legendary, the shawarma and falafel are always fresh and flavorful, and the baklava is some of the best you’ll find anywhere.“

“beautiful and tasty cakes“

“We stopped in for lunch and it exceeded our expectations! We ordered a ham sandwich on focaccia bread with potato, broccoli and cheddar soup, and the Claudio sandwich with white bread. It was all spectacular! The story of how the shop started was also sweet to read inside the restaurant. We will definitely stop here again next time we are in the area.“

“I love Giant Eagle close to home always my go to“
