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.“

“The sweet treats are INSANE. Best rugelach in the universe!“

“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.“

“This is a true banchan spot, and the kimchi is outstanding.

You can immediately taste the difference—well-balanced seasoning, deep fermentation, and that perfect blend of freshness and richness. It’s not overly salty or sour, just clean, bold, and addictive. The kind of kimchi that makes you want extra rice.

All the side dishes are made with care, but the kimchi alone is worth the visit. It tastes homemade, traditional, and consistently good.

If you appreciate good Korean side dishes, especially excellent kimchi, this place is a must.

Highly recommended.“

“today I was there in the afternoon and it was very rewarding the attention and all its posts, I got a Macha latte and Some desserts were divine especially the attention of the guy who attended me, was very kind and sweet, was aware of me all the time, greetings from me the girl in the pink coat and the sneakers UGG 🫶“

“I'll admit, I'm a donut skeptic. So many places over promise and/or have crazy toppings, but the donuts themselves are so-so. Mighty Bread's Sweet Potato Brioche Boston Cream was probably the best donut I've ever had. On top of that, the service was super friendly and the atmosphere was really cute!“

“This bakery is the cleanest bakery I have ever walked in. It is so homey inside and you can tell they care about their customers. I travel 30 minutes to come here and it is well worth the drive!“

“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.“

“Love this place. Great sweet and savory bakes - tried the potato fatayer, scrambled egg sandwich (melt in your mouth bread), spinach and cheese borek (fragrant zaa'tar), and pistachio babka muffin (yum). Beautiful meghle spiced tea (iced) to go along. Friendly staff and warm, nostalgic ambiance.“

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

“This bakery never disappoints! Both of my girls loved your Gryffindor cupcakes at Harry Potter days in the early 2000s. You made a gorgeous celestial cake for my oldest during the pandemic and, most recently, a beautiful and delicious 25th birthday cake with the F1 theme she asked for. Thank you for such consistent quality over the years! ❤️“

“i have conducted scientific research in philly's chinatown to find the best bakery (i went to every single one over the course of 3 days) and this is the one.

the coconut cream bun and custard bun are my personal favorites, ESPECIALLY when they are fresh and still warm 😭😭“

“I’m really surprised that this location has so many bad reviews. I’ve seen people complain about being cut off from standing in line an hour before close. I think it’s important to note that, with an HOUR wait time in line, the staff shouldn’t have to stay past close to service you. Cutting the line off an hour before close enables them to get through the rest of the line by closing time and to go home at a decent time.

Everyone wants to try a piece of Crumbl. Considering the hype and the high-density population of Cherry Hill and the surrounding area, it should come as no surprise that this place has long lines and wait times.
This is the only location in South Jersey, so if you can deal with waiting, you’re in for a treat.

I came here for their soft opening and almost every week since then. The owner and staff are kind and make an efficient team. The cookies are well-made and of great quality. It’s always really fun finding out what the new flavors of cookies are every week and taking a 6-pack home to share and rate with my family.

I do wish that they had a better system for letting folks in the line know about certain flavors being out of stock. That’s my only note about improvement“

“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!!“

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

“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!“

“These folks are baking on another level. Not to sweet, but still satisfying. Fruit flavors are so bright. Bread has top-notch textures. Their sandwiches are so creative and well composed. The neighborhood is extremely lucky to have such a high quality bakery.“

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

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

“I cannot recommend Ferry Good Treats enough! The lemon cake with raspberry filling was absolutely incredible. It was so moist, flavorful, and you could truly tell it was homemade with love and care. The very first bite reminded me of the lemon cakes my great-grandmother used to make, which made it feel extra special and nostalgic. Not only did it taste amazing, but it was also beautifully decorated to perfectly match my “Thirty, Flirty, and Thriving” birthday theme. The attention to detail was beyond what I could have imagined. Ferry Good Treats helped make my 30th birthday feel so special, and I received so many compliments on the cake. I will absolutely be back to order for every occasion. Thank you for creating such a beautiful and delicious centerpiece for my celebration!“

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“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!“

“amazing fresh delicious pastries and desserts. The mini Pavlovas are outstanding, also love the apple strudel. The Napoleon will be my next test, it looks amazing! I'm happy to find this great place in the area with such affordable QUALITY, I plan to keep tasting many more things“

“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.“

“After my first bite of the breakfast Sammy, I started taking pictures because I knew I’d leave a review. Esp. With the Pellegrino Lemonata soda in the skinny can. Second Bite and your traveling. Take a sip of the Lemonata “ta da” you’re at the foot of the lift that takes you up for what you came for in Capri. Warning: Airfare not included“

“Our wedding cake turned out so beautifully, and our guests loved it! Thank you so much for perfectly bringing our vision to life :)“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 ‼️“

“You will definitely get the by far the best tomato pie in Philly hands down p.s get there early because they most definitely will sale out!!!!“

“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!“

“Ramona’s created a stunning Temple grad cake for my son and his friends. Not only was it perfect visually, but tasted phenomenal! Highly recommend!!!“

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

“The Lox of Love is fantastic. A little inconsistent, though. Sometimes I get lots of lox, sometimes hardly any :(. It’s a bit disappointing when it’s a pretty expensive bagel.

They have good bread for sale too, and delicious vegan pastries!“

“We just had our first taste of goodness from Tartes. Their tartlets are pretty and scrumptious! Whether you're looking for a dessert for a romantic or holiday dinner, a gift for a birthday or host, or just a special treat for yourself, Tartes is the place! Their offerings are yummy for the eyes and the tastebuds!“

“GOOD PLACE FOR ICE CREAM THE BANANA PUDDING FLAVORED IS THE BEST WHENEVER I HAVE A SWEET TOOTH I GO TO SWEET EATS NEVER DISAPPOINTS:)“

“These cookies are DELICIOUS, and the staff and service are just as sweet (pun totally intended). The Assistant Manager Lalita was highly responsive, enthusiastic, and pleasant in making arrangements for a school event. I'm very happy that Levain has come to Philly, both for their yummy treats and their community support.“

“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 sweetest team!! Bonnie is such a delightful person and was very welcoming of our food tour group. She went over and beyond to customize our order for some guests who have dietary restrictions and baked everything perfectly-timed so that it was warm and fresh for our arrival. Our group loved their scones and we'll definitely be back for more treats and their bagels.“

“They always have great pastries compliant are the best“

“My daughter really liked her bundt cake. Went on and on about it! So glad I ordered from them!“

“The absolute BEST tomato pie in Philly and the suburbs! Specialty bread, oreganata, moved out of the area, but it’s always worth the trip!“

“One of my favorite go to spots when I worked in Chestnut Hill a very long time ago! The vibe has not changed a decade later! It was great to come in with my highly energetic son, enjoy the great vibes and coffee! Times have changed but they haven't! I had different drink experiences on different days and they were accommodating every time. Thanks for being so welcoming, and inviting! Young messy ppl take PATIENCE“

“great all around ppl its pretzel pizza for me“

“I've been buying from Isgros since 1975. Anyone who writes a bad review of this beloved bakery is likely to think the Grand Canyon is merely a hole in the ground. Don't believe any of their drivel. Maybe.....maybe!....they caught a bad batch of goods....but its highly unlikely. Everything sells out! How can stuff be stale? Impossible!! Everything they produce is simply sensational. I've never heard of any complaints from anybody who I know to be a regular customer. Pricing? Is that even worth mentioning? Does anyone gripe about the price of a Mercedes? The goods cost what they cost because they're high quality and delicious.“
