50 Best Bakeries near Waterdown

“We just had our daughters communion catered by Sweet Paradise Bakery. (Hamilton Location) It was absolutely delicious!! We knew it would be as we have been customers for long standing but just WOW! Fresh, hot and just extremely flavourful! Our guests enjoyed everything so much and the pastries were just fresh and delicious as well. 5 stars from our family and if your thinking of an event definitely give this family owned business an opportunity to wow you as well. Thank you to all who prepared our event🕊️ -Jen & Lui Marrello“

“Went with my wife and two young girls…greeted with smile felt welcomed. While we waited for our delicious, fresh pizza, they allowed my 15 month old to venture around the back, and they didn’t bat an eye! Very nice people working. Pizza and Donuts were delish!!!! Definitely going to be going back!“

“Their desserts are delicious. They are the best in all of GTA. The tastiest 'zainud al-sitt' you can find is in Canada, along with the best baklava. The sweetness of the desserts is perfectly balanced—not too much. As for their service, it's excellent. The staff welcome you with a smile, offer you a piece of sweetness, and serve you quickly.“

“We stopped in randomly while lost on a road trip, this spot was such an amazing find I don’t know the name of the treat I had, it was a danish with cream and berries in the middle We got some other cupcakes and cheese cake to take home to try We tried them all tonight and everything was absolutely amazing We have already decided we will be going to make a special stop here next time we are in this direction Prices were extremely reasonable, everything was very fresh 5 stars“

“Best cheesecake!! Variety of flavours and everyone of them so well done. ❤️“

“Simply amazing bread, you can taste the passion and care and quality they put into the bread. So many great varieties and innovative breads too! Highly recommend. This is what great bread tastes like!“

“I’ve been going to MySweeTooth for almost a year now. They have a variety of drinks and pastries. I have to say not everything on the menu is my taste, but I’ve still always enjoyed my experience there. The owners are so nice! And I always feel like a valued customer when I am there. Some of my favourites are there Mango Slushy with Coconut Cream Jelly or Ice Cream and their Hot Dog milk buns. Just this week I finally had the chance to try their fresh Strawberry and Mango mochi, WOW! I think the thickness of the mochi really complements the cream inside well. Even if you only have the chance to go their once, it’s defiantly worth it.“

“Delicious! We came here on a whim and needed Eggs Benedict and I was blown away with the precise quality and fantastic Eggs Benedict. Crisp and savoury bacon and really good hollandaise sauce. Without any side dishes to clutter the dish or compete with how good the Eggs Benedict was. Deeply impressed with the service and pleasant atmosphere. Not your run of the mill diner Eggs Benedict.

The waffles are also to die for. Crisp and light with the perfect amount of icing sugar.

I'm coming back even if I don't own a dog!

(Note this is a dog friendly inclusive splace, not a dog cafe where you go to pet dogs in residence. Be prepared to have dogs wander around in the dining space.)“

“Incredible bakery! Have been a few times to buy a variety of things for my mom, and each time she triple checks that I’m SURE it’s gluten-free because everything is just SO tasty!“

“Truly the most amazing pastries I’ve ever tasted. First time I tried them with my family and everything I bought was amazing. If you want the best quality you have to shop here and you’ll never go anywhere else. People are also awesome ❤️“

“excellent food, interesting store with lots of goodies. My only complaint was there doesn't seem to be a recycling box so everyone was tossing their pop cans in the garbage.“

“Sam's is a great 'old-school' bakery! My father-in-law owned La Favorita Bakery on Concession, which closed when he retired. He's still good friends with the owner & enjoys when I buy him a treat!“

“Our family ordered 3 trays of lasagna, a Greek salad and 1 1/2 garden salad for a Celebration of Life. We had this all delivered. The food was delicious! The lasagnas were hot with lots of meat, pasta and sauce and the salads were fresh with lots of vegetables & dressing that we added ourselves to our taste. The Greek salad was exceptional & we would order only that in the future. Len & Lester were wonderful to deal with & extremely patient & helpful, answering all my questions. Our delivery person was very friendly & set things up for us perfectly. We had no complaints during a very stressful time and would order from them again with no hesitation.“

“ordered their Thanksgiving feast meal the mega one and I am very disappointed first when I had my step dad go pick up the order for me cuz I'm sick they forgot to give them all the order so he had to go back later that day to pick up the remaining items in the order and secondly when my mother went to go cook the meal on Sunday after picking it up on Friday but the stuffing smelt sour which is unusual because it's stuffing and the dough for the pies were undercooked even when they put it in their oven for 60 minutes which is way over the instructions the Hamilton meat pie recommended. I will not be comming back“

“I have just had the best spanakopita that I have had in years. I will definite become a regular customer now that I have found this clean, bright place with such lovely staff.“

“Just started working in kitchen, the staff is amazing, treat you like family, it's a wonderful atmosphere always clean and inviting. As for the food it's even more better. Going to gain lots weight working here lol😋“

“I was here on February 27th and had the grilled chicken sandwich with Italian wedding soup. It was absolutely delicious—5 stars! ⭐️ Got a sweet treat after , chocolate strawberry matcha latte with strawberry cheesecake. 😋“

“A great experience and worth the stop. As someone trying to expand my food palette, this was an exceptionally good restaurant. They were kind and knowledgeable, and their service was excellent. Spend your money local and support businesses just like these!! Those 5 stars are well deserved, so yummy!“

“Best Donuts in Ontario! The Creme brûlée donut is out of this world! Can’t wait to come back 🍩 ❤️“

“Absolutely the best bagels and sandwiches in town! Can’t beat the incredible service!“

“We have picked pumpkins here for the last two years and every time we have been given conflicting information. We came again this year just to pick pumpkins, expecting to do what we did the last two years, bypass the line, pick a pumpkin and pay on the way out. Instead we were stopped, told we needed to wait in line, pay $6 per person admission (?) then if all we wanted to do was pick pumpkins, then pick them and pay $5 per pumpkin on the way out (?!) We spoke to a young couple we saw leaving with a pumpkin, and they said they had just walked in and paid $5 for a pumpkin… We left without pumpkins and they have lost a repeat customer.“

“The food, staff, decor and everything else about this place is fantastic. Brought a big group of friends (even my 13yo niece) and everyone loved the food and had a great time. We will definitely be going here again next time we are in the Hamilton area.“

“So love ❤️ this store, always great service and help. Best bread around.“

“Amazing fresh and traditional food! Great taste and quality with everything they sell. Their bread is amazing and great to bring home for the family along with the other fresh baked foods. It’s all made daily and prices are great. The place is clean and customer service was great!“

“We lost our premier place Dee’s Tarts in Cambridge and because some friends recommended a place in Newmarket so I googled best butter tarts in Ontario and Bitten came up. They were the best. We will return to Hamilton to get butter tarts“

“Delicious Pain au Chocolate!“

“Great custom cookies and off the shelf items.“

“Cupcakes of Westdale Village is a Hamilton treasure! Their work is gourmet, custom baked, creative, beautiful, and delicious! Check their website! Their service and attention to detail are exemplary. They handled a special urgent custom order with excellence. Get your cupcakes there! You owe it to yourself and those you love!“

“Amina is so talented. Working with her was an absolute pleasure. She did an amazing job and it was exactly what we asked for. Our wedding cake was perfect. Delivery was right on time and whenever I needed to talk to her she answered back quickly. We would recommend her to anyone and can’t wait to use her services in the future. Thank you so much.“

“Heaven in a little cake! The perfect ratio of icing and cake 🤤“

“Absolutely amazing baked goods! I’ve been df/gf for close to 13 years and never have I ever found products that not only have a great variety of options but for them to taste so incredibly delicious! This will definitely be an absolute must stop and fill up when we are in town. So incredibly yummy and not overly sweet like some places.“

“We got a salted caramel cake from here for my brothers engagement party. Everyone loved it! The butter cream frosting on the exterior was fantastic, and the interior was delectable with coffee!“

“breads, roll in the hay, cookies, crumble cups“

“Great customer service, amazing products.“

“I’ve visited the COBS Bread location a few times around 9:00 AM to purchase sourdough bread, and on multiple occasions I’ve been told it can’t be sliced because it’s still too warm from the oven.

I understand there may be guidelines to protect the slicing equipment, but it’s frustrating as a customer—especially since the store opens at 7:00 AM and sliced bread still isn’t available a couple of hours later.

In previous visits, staff were generally more accommodating and at least tried to help. During my most recent visit, however, I was told quite firmly that slicing wasn’t possible.

I also asked whether there was any way to have bread available earlier for slicing, but was told that baking times aren’t something staff can adjust.

The bread itself is great, but if sliced bread isn’t consistently available during regular morning hours, it makes it difficult to rely on this location.“

“I absolutely love Beyond the Batter. I have been getting cupcakes from them for years and recommend them to all my friends and family. As a photographer, I've taken photos of their cupcakes for assignments, and they are always so perfect! Other than looks, they're always moist and delicious.“

“WOW! Hand made desserts, goodies, bread and buns. There’s quite literally a sweet treat for every palate. I purchased some fresh whole wheat buns (hard to find anywhere else!!). And then I saw the scones..and there were no cheese ones out, so I asked the staff if they had any, and it turned out they had a batch in the oven! 5 minutes later I left with hot scones.

Cannot get any fresher than this. 10/10 recommend.

Staff are friendly and extremely helpful. They also make some beautiful cakes for all occasions and I’ll definitely be purchasing my birthday cake from here!!“

“Very kind, very consistent. Can’t go wrong here.

I came to get some gifts for a party last minute and they helped me out right away.

While I was ordering, the nice lady let me try some of her favourites.

Will definitely be coming back.“

“The absolute BEST GF lasagna imaginable!!!“

“Home made wraps and sandwiches, great coffee, variety of cold drinks AND a great selection of freshly baked sweets. Gotta drop in and check ‘em out. Two bottled drinks, assorted sub and chicken wrap with cookies and cheese stick $30 - money well spent.“

“I finally found a place that serves a real, authentic croissant—crispy on the outside, soft, buttery, and absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality. On top of that, the staff member was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and provided outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Peach Pie Perfection! 🍑 🥧 👌“

“We ordered a large custom non-dairy cake for our daughters birthday. It was amazing and DELICIOUS!😋. We were impressed and very happy. Many thanks to the bakers & staff at Sinful Desserts!“

“where do l start. lt has been a decade since I've been here, but to my disappointment the service( lady was rude and unfriendly). l wanted to walk out , instead l did or something from the deli because l wanted to remember the good food and goid times of when l used to come and l was with a friend and l was looking forward to this moment. Nothing else to say!“

“The pizza here is great but service was mediocre. Ordered a pickup order in the morning but got multiple calls afterwards saying they used up the ingredients, asking me to choose something different each time…not entirely sure what the point of placing your order early if it doesn’t guarantee the availability of the order.“

“Try the Iced Caramel Latte, it's the best! Also the coconut raspberry tarts are to die for!“

“yummy selection of pies, tarts and breads“

“Burek, best I've had in North America“

“Ordering the cake was easy with help from the staff. They were so nice, and the cake was beautiful. It made my morning so much easier the day of the party, I just had to pick up and pay, it was nice and quick. Everyone was asking where we got the cake from, and we definitely spread the word. We love supporting local businesses in our community. We ordered the fruit cake, and the sweetness was just right, and it was nice and light almost like a trifle. Perfect for a birthday that’s on a hot day!!“

“Love love the burek !😋 The best outside of Serbia.... I drive from Kingston, Ont to this store . Also love the other imported products . The deli is great, also the baked goods are delicious. Service is super friendly 👍 Great place !“
