50 Best Bakeries near Elkins Park

“From the time I decided To walk in and get a pastry and something hot to drink, I was in love with it. It’s my favorite place to go to after work with friends. It’s a nice place to unwind and pull out your laptop and work as well. Love the Hot dog donut!!!! And the brownies.“

“I've been here twice for Challah. Also had a blueberry muffin and sticky bun with raisins and walnuts. Everything has been delicious! Not expensive either.“

“Been searching for a local 떡집, lo and behold Nakwon. Discovered it by purchasing their product from the Upper Darby Hmart, I ended up liking it enough to find the brick and mortar store. Definitely recommend you give it a try, the lady who works there is really nice.“

“The food and atmosphere are amazing.“

“The place was clean and food was ver y good. Chi namul. Doraji namul, duduk muchim, marinated shredded squid, pancake, soysauce chicken jorim, fried squid tempura.Love this place for their kimbap rice rolls. Even though it's more than 30 mins away from home, they are delicious and so worth it.“

“Honestly, not bad for a smaller location in the local H mart by our house! The first time we went was towards the end of the day and I was put off by the pastries that were sitting out and visibly looked stale. Coming earlier in the day though, the breads are all fresh tasting and you can see them baking in the back. Wish the selection was more varied but overall, happy that its so nearby.“

“Truly the best pound cake I’ve ever had. This was a hit with the family for Easter- the marble cake with chocolate icing was my personal fav. The girls working were so friendly and welcoming even though the store was super busy! I will definitely be back!!“

“The girl that I spoke with recommended a whip cream cake, let me tell you, this cake did not disappoint it was the best one yet I had a lot of cakes from Haegles. I would recommend any bakery item from Haegles ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Love The Kettle Black! Amazing vegan croissants, bagels & other treats! Their cold brew is always on point! Super friendly and talented folks!“

“We love the croissant and bagels! Can’t wait to try more yummy things next week! And it’s AMAZING to have delivery.“

“I love the food here. But i went there tonight around 730 and it was frigid outside. Just as we were sitting down to eat our food the worker decided to open the doors to carry all the outdoor furniture in then kept them open while he changed trash outside too. Not a care in the world for how freezing it was for his customers. It was extremely disappointing. We drive like 25 minutes to eat here. May be a while before we do that again.“

“Best bakery in Philly?? Love the food so much that I've done a catering order for a friend's mehendi as well as our own housewarming. Everything's mouthwateringly good: the sweet and the savory! And the customer service is extraordinary!“

“It's such a cozy nice bakery! And the barista there is such a warm guy! I tried their hot chocolate based on Google reviews and it was worth it. But for me the lemon tart was a winner. I had been looking for a decent lemon tart for a while and finally found it!“

“I’m obsessed! Found this bakery on too good to go & took a ride over (from jersey) I came home with 4 different flavors of the banana pudding & my 16 year old and I tried each one. I can’t even pick a favorite because they are all so good. The Magic flavor name makes complete sense when you take a bite because different flavors seem to magically appear in your mouth (peanut butter being the last to hit…) hard to explain but if you taste it, it will make sense! I got 2 large puddings in my order than bought 2 different small ones in different flavors & i regret not getting the 2 extra cups in large! Driving in Philly stresses me out but I’ve never wanted to drive back over there so bad! For more pudding! I will be recommending this bake shop to everyone! The guy behind the counter was super nice & welcoming and helped me pick out some favorites. It’s a nice Friendly shop with amazing puddings & I will definitely be back!“

“This place has the BEST cookies and great customer service!

They have 6+ flavors every week and they rotate through new flavors weekly. They also have exciting holiday themed flavors. It's easy to get invested in coming back over time to try different delights! Their app is easy to use for orders and their rewards program points add up quickly. Their staff is always friendly and nice. Their party pack is a favorite at gatherings!“

“Staff really are the best family!!! I ad a special request for a cake that was out of the norm. Strawberry shortcake with red velvet cake and mmmmmmm. Literally the best thing I ever had!! Everything in Cafe Roma is amazing! Love love love this bakery!!“

“Great location. Only a short wait to be seated. Very good hosts working well to get guests to a table. Kristina was our waitress and she was great. Friendly and good service!“

“Such a great shoppe and experience! When you step inside the aroma is delightful, and the ambiance is upbeat and bright incorporating both modern and cozy. The pastries, breads, cookies are top-notch and totally enticing. The Mocha Latte I ordered was delicious. This is a very busy place, on weekends especially, so plan ahead and don't go hangry. But well worth the wait. Staff are pleasant, hard-working, and professional. My new favorite place in South Philly! Loved it 😍“

“Listennnnn! those mini Sweet Potato pies were to die for!!! I'll be back soon! ❤️ 🔥“

“They have the best customer service. I got a cookie tin and canolis. Both were of such high quality. Great Italian bakery!“

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“Can not go wrong ordering any dessert from Bredenbeck’s. We get all our daughter’s birthday cakes and go there for ice cream during the summer.“

“Welcome to the Asian 9rh st. The area is complete with nuance of fish heads and stray cats. The Filthy Orient would fit in well in this area. The pretzels are tasty ,but I have to disinfect my work boots when I leave this store.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I stopped by Mayflower Bakery & Cafe while I was in Chinatown and I’m so glad I did. The pastry case was packed with options and everything looked super fresh. I grabbed a pineapple bun, a roast pork bun, and a coconut tart, and honestly all three were delicious. The buns were soft and fluffy, the fillings tasted fresh, and the coconut tart was perfectly sweet without being over the top. I also ordered a Vietnamese-style coffee, which was strong and smooth and paired perfectly with the pastries.

The place itself is small and simple, but the staff were really friendly and even offered to warm up my pastries, which made them taste even better. Prices are very reasonable, so you can try a bunch of different things without breaking the bank. Overall, it’s the kind of spot I’d happily come back to whenever I’m in the area, tasty food, good coffee, and a welcoming vibe.“

“Cupcake- Lemon pound cake with raspberry filling and raspberry buttercream on top!“

“beignets, almond croissants, plain croissants. cash only“

“I ordered my husband's birthday cake from Ann's Cake Pan and it was delicious. It was a chocolate cake with hazelnut filling and vanilla buttercream. Bill was extremely helpful with taking my order. I am making this my birthday cake stop for now on. I'm sad that I lived in Warrington for 6 years and didn't know this tasty establishment existed. I'm going to refer everyone here! Thank you for making my husband's birthday special.“

“Love their home made food“

“I LOVE and 100% recommend The Famous 4th Street Cookie Company! Someone had their cookies mailed to me as a sympathy gift back in 2021. Since then, I myself have sent them to so many family and friends. Here are my top reasons for loving this company: 1. Their chocolate chip cookies are seriously so amazing! (and I am very particular about my chocolate chip cookies), 2. Their service is amazing! They respond to emails and phone messages really quickly and do what they can to help, 3. They are military friendly - whenever I need to ship to my nephew's military base in Alaska (which is very hard to get companies to deliver to by the way), they always help me out, get the shipping done quickly, and are super helpful. When my nephew gets the cookies in Alaska, they are always amazing. This is a great company that I will continue to use to send friends and family delicious gifts.“

“First time there today, welcoming atmosphere. I really enjoyed the oatmeal raisin cookie and the pumpkin cupcake they were both excellent. Didn't get a chance to taste my Snickerdoodle cookie yet, but I'm sure it will be good also. I may have to take another trip next weekend.🍪🧁😋“

“This place is dessert heaven. They also have coffee and other baked goods. I went with the mango cake, which can be ordered and prepaid online so there is no wait. This was the first time stepping in and definitely won’t be the last. There is a lot of stuff to try.“

“Highly recommend! I asked if Ferry Good Treats could accommodate food allergies, and she said yes! Tasty cake and cupcakes, looked great and the kids loved them! My daughter was extremely happy.“

“Authentic Chinese bakery. 紙杯蛋糕，cup cakes, were light fluffy and bouncy. So good! Ordered 20 plus of those cup cakes to go! Owners were so friendly. We ordered a lot of their pastries too. Female owner so caring that she individually wrapped each pastry knowing that we are traveling back east on the road. Definitely will return!“

“I was in the area and decided to pop by to try a thing or two. Not knowing anyone who had tried them before I stuck to the small, individual sized items…browned butter chocolate chip cookies, morning croissant and some pizza dough. It all comes frozen but I had other places to go so some started defrosting in the car. Here’s my review of each. Cookies - I don’t like ANY chocolate chip cookie that doesn’t have nuts in them. I usually wouldn’t even buy them, I decided to try these because of the browned butter. I had one in the car before I got home and they were AMAZING! I shocked myself at how much I enjoyed them. They were soft without being chewy, a feature I hate in cookies personally, and had nice crispy edges, even after defrosting! The taste, texture and everything about these defied all that I thought was possible with a gf cookie! 10 out of 10 Pizza dough - since it was defrosted by the time I got him I decided to make a couple mini pizzas. I used half the dough, I bag will easily make 4-5 personal sized pizzas. I thought I had rolled it too thin as it started to break apart so I made it a little thicker. It rises while cooking so when I do the rest, I’ll leave it thinner for sure. Because other gf pizzas seem to have such difficulty cooking in the city I was concerned when I saw these rising. But they cooked up beautifully! It was soooo nice having gf pizzas seem that had the taste and texture of traditional crust. I appreciate suppliers for having the option available, and some are better than others…but the Flakely dough is the standard now! I’ll never buy another gf pizza, whether it be a restaurant or a market. 10 out of 10 Morning croissant - I put this right in the freezer so I haven’t tasted it yet. But it looks phenomenal! They described it as a cross between a cinnamon roll and a croissant. You can’t go wrong with that combo as a general thing but given how the cookie and pizza dough has tasted, I have no doubt this will be terrific as well! Run, don’t walk, over to their shop and let’s make sure they’re around for the long haul. Just beware, they might spoil you against some of your existing faves!“

“I have never been to the storefront, but I have gotten various things from them several times at the East Falls and Fairmount farmers markets. Their cheesecake bars are absolutely the best bar of any kind I've ever had, I can't even describe them properly to do them justice, but it's insane to me that so few reviewers mentioned them (must be because their sandwiches are THAT good--I will have to go to the shop to try one apparently!). Their focaccia bread is also the fluffiest, spongiest, freshest bread I've tasted, and can easily be eaten plain by itself. Their chocolate cake is perfect--rich chocolate flavor and not too sweet. So I wholeheartedly recommend trying pretty anything they make!“

“Tomato pie like no other! Absolutely delicious cheesesteak and pepperoni bites and dont even get me started on the italian rum cake. Absolutely wonderful owner! She is such a sweetheart and doesnt hesitate to make things right. Always worth the 30 minute drive! 10/10 ‼️“

“If you haven’t been to Mochi Heaven, you’re missing out! From the warm welcome to the incredible flavors, every visit is a treat. The food is fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with bold, unforgettable taste. Whether you’re craving your favorites or trying something new, you’ll be hooked from the first bite. Amazing service, great atmosphere, and food that keeps you coming back—Mochi Heaven truly lives up to its name! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A must-try!“

“I was so excited when I discovered that Brewerytown Bakery is completely vegan. I’ve started going on occasional weekend mornings for a London Fog boba and a loaf of bread. This morning I treated myself to a breakfast sandwich too. It was so delicious! If you’re ever in the area, you’ve got to check them out. 💜“

“Went to a cake decorating class for my bachelorette party and we had a blast! Food was DELICIOUS. We ate mini crab cakes, quesadillas, sea food Mac & cheese and a charcuterie board: all of it was incredible. The owner and her mother are an absolute vibe and the cake tastes AMAZING, hands down one of the best cakes I’ve ever had. Book your event now!“

“I've always had good baked goods here - it's becoming a traditional stop when we come to the city! Best things I've had here are the maple oatmeal scones and the brown butter pound cake - phenomenal! What baked goods are supposed to taste like!“

“I have been going here since they opened and I’m sad I realized I have never left a review ^_^
I enjoy their bagels but I mostly come for their cookies! Love love their cookies and right now I am obsessed with their banana bread.

The only con is they don’t have a sitting area and no restrooms. You order through their window and wait outside.“

“First time trying crumbl and this location was close by so we stopped in. I didn’t like it was only a few selections to choose from saying though we wanted to give our honest review. They were nice and warm I can say and great presentation. I just wish I could have tried more flavors. The churro was my favorite by far and the cookies an cream cheesecake not so much. I will return soon to try any new flavors.“

“We purchased an assortment of macarons for a party and the guests loved them. Several said they were the best they had ever had!“

“the best tasting cannolis pastries are amazing“

“The cupcakes are so good! Plus I ordered Easter candy there and even a pie that were all delicious“

“I was in the area and finally got a chance to try this bakery since I love fresh baked items. I had heard great things about this bakery and I can see why they say the wonderful things they do. I’m a cake lover, and it’s usually hard to find a well baked Good quality cake. Well I definitely found it here! It was beautifully decorated and nice and moist and the icing was delicious! And I like how they put a lot of icing on the Cake because I love frosting! I also got a Cream cheese iced brownie, which also was super delicious! In most bakeries the brownies are usually stale and gummy, but this brownie was tender and the icing was outrageously good! It complemented the brownie very well. And as a final test, I got two butter cookies topped with sugar and once again did not disappoint. Very tender and buttery. It’s nice to see you Use good quality ingredients instead of cheap ones to save cost. The taste is so much better with real butter and the other real ingredients. Please don’t ever change because everything is super delicious! So nice to find a bakery that I love! Keep up the great work. 😊“

“My friend and I stopped by the Huntington Valley, County Line Rd location today!!! ❤️I ordered a caramel eclair and it was wonderful! Shop was adorable and great service. Highly recommend! ❤️👍🎉🍰🧁“

“The cappuccino was so good in this little cozy cafe. There were good verity of baked goods. I prefer some inside seats since the weather is not nice most of time in Philadelphia. There were a couple of seats outside of cafe but not many seats inside.“
