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 recently visited Mighty Bread Company in Philadelphia and it’s easily one of the most charming bakeries in the city. The place has a cozy neighborhood vibe, and you can tell right away that everything is made with real care and craftsmanship.

The sourdough bread is the star here—crispy crust, chewy inside, and full of flavor. I also tried one of their breakfast sandwiches and a pastry, and both were excellent. Everything tasted fresh, simple, and thoughtfully made.

The atmosphere feels relaxed and welcoming, with locals stopping in for coffee, bread, or brunch. Overall, Mighty Bread Company is a fantastic spot if you love artisanal bread and a laid-back café experience in Philly.“

“Best cookies ever!!! Everything is good but the cookies… ohhhhhhhh my goodness!! Sooo good!“

“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’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!“

“Just had my first Dubai Biscoff Brownie … wow. So rich and amazing. I sampled the chocolate vanilla ice cream swirl as well and it’s a light compliment to the first. The other two in my four pack will have to wait. Couldn’t possibly do another bite. Well done Crumbl.“

“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!“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Fast service, wide selection of baked goods! I got the almond croissant, mushroom and spinach quiche, olive oil cake, mocha, and cappuccino. The staff were friendly and the food and drinks came out super quick and delicious. Would come again.“

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

“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.“

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

“Mayflower was a random stop but looked like a great option for a quick snack. We didn’t have to wait long to order and there are lots of options for buns! We got the pork bun and the almond butter bun, which are priced under $5 each. The pork bun was so delicious and stuffed with meat, and was sweet and savory! I could eat 5 more of those and call it a meal. The almond butter bun is very soft and buttery (makes sense) and better as a dessert rather than a snack. Great spot for a quick and tasty bite!“

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

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“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.“

“I picked up 2 different cakes for my daughter’s birthday’s and all I can say is WOW!! Both cakes were so beautiful that we hated to cut them. Not only beautiful but they tasted amazing! This is are go to bakery from now on! Welcome to the neighborhood as well!“

“Frosted Fox DELIVERED on the groom’s cake I ordered for our rehearsal dinner! From start to finish, they made the entire process completely stress-free. Their communication was thorough, their team was so easy to work with, and they brought my exact vision to life perfectly.
The cake was not only stunning but absolutely delicious. I will absolutely be using Frosted Fox Cake Shop for all of my future cakes! Highly, highly recommend!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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 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.“

“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. 💜“

“So I was looking for a bakery outside of Walmart where I could get a Heart shaped cake. I came across this on Google and was so excited to order and it did not disappoint. I needed the cake for Sunday and they were able to accommodate me when I reached out two days before. The theme for my birthday with Pink and Black, and they executed the cake perfectly. And as much as it looked good, it tasted even better. All my cakes moving forward will be from here.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Ordered a custom gender reveal cake and was so impressed! Weinrich’s Bakery was so accommodating and easy to work with — my doctor was able to email them the gender and they were kind enough to work with our design and keep the gender a secret until we cut the cake. Great customer experience, very friendly staff, and cake was absolutely delicious! We received so many compliments from our guests. Highly recommend & will definitely order from Weinrich’s again! 🩵🩷🍰“

“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“
