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 🫶“

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

“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!“

“Different Philly bakeries make my top list for different reasons. If you want sourdough this is THE place to get it (rosemary peppercorn is my fave). Morning buns are great too. The rest--croissants, danishes and most savory options are ok but nothing special. The staff are super friendly. The cafe can get very crowded at times, and I think there are better options for breakfast in the general area.“

“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!“

“the best around. being going to them for over 30 years. worth the drive!!!!“

“Love Majdal! Everything I have had from them is phenomenal! However, some of their customers really need to be more courteous and mindful of other patrons. They are super popular and have lines out of the door most of the time. Today when I went was no different, but two women were sitting at the window table - clearly done with the food and just chitchatting! This is not a starbucks for gods sake, if you are done with the food, just move on to a garden or something for your gossip sesh and let other paying customers sit. There needs to be a sign saying no lingering or please be mindful of other patrons and keep moving. Taking off 1 star on how they manage the customer seating.“

“We are so lucky to have a bakery of this caliber in our neighborhood. The bagels are excellent, the bread is reliable and delicious, and you never know what they'll have the next time you're there. Tomato pie! Soft serve ice cream! Quiche! Super friendly too.“

“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! ❤️“

“every single thing we had was phenomenal (batata harra fatayer, fig cardamom bread, pistachio cheesecake, cheese fatayer, beetroot fatayer, chicken bun, chocolate rose olive oil cake). cardamom coffee was excellent as well. Genuinely an incredible bakery and everything is worth trying.“

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

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“I can't say enough good things about this bakery. I've tried their pastries, cookies and cappuccino, and they are all INCREDIBLE. And very reasonable prices - just be sure to bring cash as they're cash only. My favorite bakery in all of Philly“

“I was visiting Philly for work from London doing some research at the nearby Historical Society of Pennsylvania and ended up coming here everyday for breakfast and snacks! Amazing ham and cheese croissant, Napoleon pastry, coffee and juice, and all the people working there are polite and kind.“

“i'll always love you mayflower bakery <3
ham cheese corn bun is always very yummy. today is mango smoothie -- very good, not too sweet. i will try papaya another day maybe, hopefully avocado soon.

the place is small, but personally cozy for me to sit in. very nice people :)“

“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.“

“Levain Bakery never disappoints! The mini ice cream sandwich is absolutely delicious, the perfect combo of a chewy cookie and creamy ice cream. The Chocolate Chip Brioche is also incredible, so soft and buttery. Their drinks are always amazing too, and the workers here are so nice every single time. Highly recommend!“

“The service was great and the women behind the counter were amazing! I will definitely come back when I am in the area again.“

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

“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!“

“Cash or Venmo only.

I got my favorite beef curry puff (puff pastry stuffed with beef curry) and my new favorite, a deep fried shrimp dumpling/egg roll thing. So so so good. Each item is about $2-3 and so good!
I just love this place.“

“Bonnie has absolutely the BEST bagels in Philly (and among the top I've ever had). You can smell and taste the sesame, and zaatar is my favorite. Croissants are also superb. Other things are perhaps not as divine, but many savory (hand pies, savory spicy scones) and sweet (cinnamon buns) offerings are quite good.“

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

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“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!!!“

“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 ‼️“

“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!“

“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!!!!“

“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! ❤️👍🎉🍰🧁“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“One of the best vegan bakeries I've ever been to! The Earl Grey cake was delicious, as were the other desserts we got. And the savory pastries were so yummy. I also got the best chai I think I've ever had. It's low-key a PROBLEM that I only live ten minutes away from this place!“

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

“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“

“This place was incredible. I was hungry and freezing when we got there. I got a croque monsuier ( fancy grilled cheese n ham with extra butter) delicious. A caramel macchiatto and a fruit tart. My Goodness...the cream and the pastry on that tart...problematic to say the least. So, so delicious. Very friendly atmosphere, very clean and efficient. I will definitely return. I just gotta be a little more regular at the gym.“
