42 Best Bakeries near Shaker Heights

“My boyfriend and I were walking past and we had to stop in because it smelled so good… My boyfriend ordered the butter cookie and the sugar cookie and they were exactly the right amount of chewy and soft and sweet. I ordered a brownie and quite honestly, it rocked my world. It was so fresh and it was even WARM. The woman working the counter was really sweet and helpful and she knew how to talk to customers and make us feel welcome. It was a great experience!“

“Is there better service combined with better pastries in the Cleveland Region? Anywhere? Well...if you are looking to find out, definitely head to On the Rise @ Van Aken Market Hall. Because, this is my "happy place" and I hope it is yours also.Teya and Becca are just 2 of the many great people working here. Teya brings personality and connects with customers, often telling a story or getting to know how things are going for people coming in.The pastries and bread are outstanding. A wide variety of breakfast pastries and scones. The weekend "Special Scones" are rotated by season, and I haven't had a better scone. Great bread and sandwiches. Definitely a variety of people working here and food that are worth your visit.“

“Amazing walnut raisin levain. Delicious taste and plenty of walnuts. Street parking. The staff was friendly but didn't ask if I wanted my head sliced, I attribute this to them being busy though - there was a line out the door at 9am on a Thursday so get there early! Small seating area and coffee with oat milk offered.“

“Great prices, fresh and unique produce and other groceries. Staff are super nice and helpful. My only complaint is that there are small aisles that are hard to maneuver with carts, but worth the slight hassle. Cannot take your cart to the car, but they always load it quickly and efficiently.“

“This place continues to stand out in a city with a lot of great bakeries. Always the same two folks in there and they are on it. Sparkling clean, super friendly, with really interesting options in addition to bakery classics. The pepperoni rolls, whose name does not do it justice, are easily one of the best savory pastries I've ever had. I think if I was going to the firing squad my last meal would be one of their cardamom knots. Also worth noting they have some cool high end grocery (like Mama Lils peppers!)“

“Listen Nini did this short notice and it was nothing short of anything. My daughter loved everything. The staff inside is so welcoming and sweet the baker herself is a sweetheart. You are now our family birthday cake baker cause girl we ate it down.“

“Best shaved ice I've ever had in my life. The buns are all soft and fluffy and comforting. I had the egg and turkey buns, the green onion bun and the mango tart, while taking a few bites of my friend's taiwanese shaved ice. I've been back a good probably 8 or so times since I began writing this review a couple months ago, and I can't stay away. Every time I go I grab a handful of warm, chewy buns and the taiwanese shaved ice with mango, strawberry, and mango jelly. The service is always quick, even when there is the occasional line to the door, and the buns are self service so you can just grab as many as you'd like and check out! I can not possibly recommend the shaved ice enough, in my opinion it easily beats out ice cream as the most refreshing summer snack.“

“I cannot tell you enough about this place. It is so good and the workers are very friendly and helpful. I've been there twice in 4 days. They have different cookies every week. They change them on Sundays. I have not been disappointed yet. I love this place.“

“Beautiful Italian Market with tons of delectable authentic Italian foods. A deli, bakery, grocery store, and a pleasant eating area all in one place. The canoli are just like the ones I had as a child. We discovered Alesci's and will definitely be going back.“

“From Orlando & visiting family...a friend treated us to Messina pizza. All I can say is that they make a yummy pie. One of the best, I've had in the Cleveland area. Definitely recommend their pizza because of quality ingredients they use from having eaten one.“

“Tons of delicious options including grab n go stuff they can warm up for you. Great service. They have indoor and outdoor seating, the patio is a relaxing vibe. I always buy way too much stuff when I come! I didn’t think prices were outrageous.“

“Best food and service around. If we are anywhere near the area- a stop by the bakery is a MUST. My son is autistic and picky and his favorite food is corbos donuts and pizza. The workers are patient, friendly, and never seem frustrated when my kids are carefully picking out their snacks. Love this place. 10 stars“

“I'm from the Westside. My doctor moved to Mayfield Hts. So I'm checking out the pizza at the Italian stores in the area. So far this store had the best pizza. I bought 2 slices of sausage and cheese. Looking forward to my next Dr's appointment so I can stop by again.“

“Let's talk about the cakes. Oh my, where do I even begin? Each creation is a masterpiece, beautifully decorated with intricate designs that are almost too beautiful to eat. From classic vanilla sponge to exotic flavors like mango passionfruit, there's something to satisfy every craving. And the best part? They taste even better than they look! Moist, flavorful, and utterly irresistible.“

“It's definitely a go-to place to relax, read a good book, grab coffee or tea, a good Danish, and more. Mike was so helpful with all of my questions. He had an available booster seat so my son and I could dine in comfortably. The tea and food were very delicious. I had a salmon, spinach, mushrooms, and cheese omelet. All the flavors married well. The potatoes had just the right crunch. The French toast was just as tasteful. Unskilled you very much.P.S. try the " Breakfast in Paris" tea! ?Kid-friendliness: Host had a sanitary booster for my son to use. Thank you ?“

“I have been coming here for over 20 years, and it is always a great experience. They have a nice selection of Mederatrain and Middle Eastern grocery and delicous ready to eat food. Great place for a fast, delicious, and inexpensive lunch, or to pick up ingredients to cook fabulously at home.“

“A great variety of meats, cheeses, breads sandwiches, and pastries.And they bake fresh daily!I work in the area so it's great to have a fresh option in the vicinity of my work.I love that they weigh everything and clean frequently.I've had the corned beef twice now it's great, I get mine toasted with mustard and cheese. It comes with a pickle and cookie and you can also dine in if you prefer.For dessert I like the chocolate coconut bars and I also love the cheese danish.The staff is also friendly and welcoming.Dietary restrictions: They have kosher here and vegetarian options“

“Such a nice place with pretty decor and delicious pastries. I had the pain au chocolat and chai tea latte. I felt like I was at a little cafe in France again. Bob, the owner came out to talk to our group about the bakery and he was really nice. Found out that the bakery is named after his dog and the local artwork is nice to see. Definitely will be back again to try more pastries.“

“Placed a last minute order for party of 15. Reasonable cost. Warm, well packed, Good portion and flavor. Cake well made presentation and taste. Arjun was very polite and courteous for the business dealing; so were the folks in the restaurant who helped carry it to the car. Thank “

“I've actually never physically been here, but I did have a phase where I would get cookies delivered weekly. I've stopped the weekly part, but will have occasional cravings. The cookies can be hit or miss, but that's not really the fault of this location since the flavors are designated on a national level. For example, I'm not a fan of the pink sugar one (never really like almond flavor) but it seems to be a hit with most.However, i have had some that I really enjoyed and I love how the flavors switch up each week, letting you try different things. Overall, solid!“

“I had the lobster bisque for lunch today. It was truly incredible. While on the pricy side due to increased seafood prices nationwide, it was worth every penny. The best lobster bisque I’ve ever had, full of huge chunks of lobster. Go early when they have it - it sells out fast!“

“Everything you could possibly need for baking supplies, decorating supplies and boxing for gifting or delivery. Candy making supplies and the best cookie cutter selection in town!!! Convenient and a unique treasure located at Wilson Mills & Richmond Rd. Supoort this wonderful small business store!!!“

“Stone Oven is a diamond in the ruff. Stone Oven has the BEST homemade Chicken Noodle soup I have ever tasted and the customer service is so accommodating and friendly. All of the staff are to be commended for you excellent work ethics and food presentation. I highly recommend Stone Oven if you want home cooked, flavorful and delicious food. I am a fan.“

“Highly recommend Cake & Candy Center. Their Cassata cake is delicious, what a hit-fresh and a not too sweet whipped cream frosting. They also have a variety of baking and candy supplies. Friendly and knowledgeable staff ready to assist with your baking and candy making needs. Shopping local pays off.“

“They are amazing! As someone who tries to limit my sugar consumption, it meant so much to me that they had sugar free coffee syrups. My boyfriend and I’s coffees were great and we appreciated that they had oat and almond milk options.We got the banana bread and cinnamon bread, both were perfectly sweet and moist. They had just made some fresh croissants, and the everything croissant sounded amazing. It exceeded our expectations and was one of the most amazing things we have ever eaten.The staff is so sweet. It was an overall amazing experience and we cannot wait to go back!Dietary restrictions: Sugar Free Syrups, Vegan Options, Gluten Free Options“

“The hours of this bakery located on East 222nd are wonkey. I wont go into detail. Make sure it is open before you make the ride out to Euclid! The bakery is worth it! Peer into my box of goodies! Chinese cookies and brownies to die for! Everything is good at this place. Delicous! Grab a cup of tea or coffee and devour these goodies! Love this stuff. Bon appetite!“

“This is our go to for holidays, birthdays, etc. Such great quality, cupcakes, birthday cakes and more! The cupcakes are an awesome option because you can get several different flavors. Friendly service, very convenient. The bakery is like a work of art! Check out my photos!“

“I have been going here for 45 years always been great for pizza bagels donuts and strudel. Never went to a bakery I liked more. I just wish they would spend a few hundred bucks to paint ,new floors,and clean it up. It looks the same as 45 years ago.Staff is always pleasant.“

“Spent $80 dollars in this place for cheesecake, (4 slices) coconut macaroons with chocolate, (8 pieces) a cannoli a cream puff and a meatball sandwich. And a anti pasta salad. My wife didn't like the salad but everything else was delicious. ?“

“Congratulations to the bakery. I was fortunate to visit for the first time on the very day they were celebrating the anniversary of their opening. I was greeted warmly and given a tour of the different types of pies, cupcakes, cookies, and cakes. Every item was delicious and definitely recommend this quaint shop.“

“My partner and I come here semi-regularly and each time get boba tea. I learned today that they make the boba from scratch and that is why it's PERFECT every time. We also love getting the pork and beef buns. Thanks very much Koko Bakery!Vegetarian options: They have plant based options for sticky rice banana leaf, green onion buns, cheese buns.“

“Our family stopped in for lunch. There are lots of soup, salad, and sandwich options! With two young ones, they loved pepperoni and cheese pizza! My daughter, who has celiac, loved having gluten-free wrap options. She went with chicken pesto and chips. I got the Steph's salad, which was amazing with strawberries and nuts. My husband got the Asian salad. It was all very fresh!There are two entrances, one outside and one from the mall. The staff was super friendly and the place was well maintained. There are mall restrooms right outside the doors.From a blind perspective, I was able to move easily between tables. The windows provide lots of natural light. Both doors are accessible with the cane, wheelchairs and strollers.If this review helps you, give us a thumbs up! #crazykleinadventureDietary restrictions: Gluten free wrap optionsKid-friendliness: Pizza is kid approved!Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible to get in and out.“

“The sugar cookies are Pavlovian!The staff is unusually nice/polite. Nolan has been there the last 2 times I've been there. He simply asked, "how are you doing today?" It caught me off guard cause it didn't sound/feel like typical customer service talk.If the cookies didn't draw me in anytime I'm in the area, the service/staff definitely would!!!“

“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“

“Just happened to be driving by and noticed the sign and couldn't understand the combo of a Pho and Bakery but I get it now.We had the Crispy rolls, P1 and Coconut Curry noodles. Everything was served quick and super hot.I'm a huge slushy fan and the Passion fruit alone would be worth me coming back. I can't say I've had a better slushy.Nothing fancy at all about the place but the food is good and hearing the foreign language and me sweating from the spice while eating took me out of the cold Cleveland winter for a moment.Nothing beats Pho on a cold day.“

“I'm today years old, and I grew up in Maple Hts., and today was the first day of being in Baraona's (we were Hough Bakery daffodil cake people, what can I say...‍). What wonderful people who work there, and the attention to detail on cake decoration was fantastic. Looking forward to having some cassata cake this weekend, and revisiting this legendary business.“

“If you want a flavorful Biscotti that doesn't break your teeth when you might it, this is it. These aren't bland at all. I have gotten these several times for my employees and me at my company for a snack. Don't believe the naysayers. My favorite is Chocolate Cranberry and Cranberry Pistachio.“

“My favorite bakery in the whole world. I've been coming here for years and can't believe I haven't left a review till now. The freshest yumiest goodnes you will ever find. If they had Poppy seed danishes everyday then I would be there everyday! When my son comes to visit from out of town, he comes here everyday of his visit for their deli sandwiches just to have a taste of home.“

“Popped in today for a bit of sweet treat & was not disappointed in my choices! I bought a couple Lime Sugar cookies & slice of blueberry, banana coffee cake Both were delicious & bursting with flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely be a returning customer!“

“From the moment of ordering over the phone to eating the cake it was A plus service. NADINE was very professional and told her some things I wanted in the cake and wanted her to do most of the creativity for my girlfriends birthday cake. Which you can tell by the pictures she definitely is good at what she does. Communication and the product was superb ?. Definitely recommend and will be back again.“

“Fantastic pastries. Fresh and mouth watering.Service is kind, respectful, patient, and very helpful. We were greeted with smiles and an eagerness to assist. This alone I believe played a role in adding more to our boxes than what we came for.Customer service goes a long way!Thanks Hough's Bakery!“
