27 Best Bakeries in Lancaster

“Hands down the best, really handcrafted coffee I've had in a VERY long time. The guy running the show recommended trying the house chai, and I was blown away. I didn't know chai could be that good. Also had a cappuccino, and I was just as impressed. The owner(?) was super friendly, helpful, and kind with everything. It's a bit off the beaten track if you're driving, but I recommend finding this place and stopping in!“

“House of Clarendon made the wedding cake of our dreams. It was classic, elegant, and exactly what we wanted—Martine absolutely understood the assignment. Not only did it look perfect, but it was hands-down the best cake we’ve ever tasted. Our guests couldn’t get enough—many went back for seconds, and some even thirds! We’re still getting compliments on it!!! If you want a wedding cake that delivers on both looks and taste, House of Clarendon is the one hands down!!!“

“This place is awesome!!!! I called for a custom cake to be made in less than a week. Not only did they make the cake the way I wanted for my wife's birthday, but it was on time and it was so delicious!!!!
No one was willing to take my order due to the time it needed to be made. They came through.
I'm so thankful, they made my wife's birthday so special.
I will be coming back in the future for more customer cakes to be made.

Thank you so much!!!!“

“Patty has been making all our birthday cakes for the past two or three years she always goes above and beyond makes exactly what we ask for the cakes are delicious. We love Patty. She’s the best.“

“Jenna’s cake for my dad’s 70th birthday was truly one of a kind! I wanted to incorporate some of my dad’s favorite things, and Jenna helped me create the most special, personalized cake for him. He absolutely loved it, and it made him feel so special.

Not only was the design perfect, but the cake itself was the most delicious I’ve ever had! It was so moist, perfectly balanced—not overly sweet, just incredibly tasty. We even put some in the fridge, and four days later, it was still just as moist and delicious!

I would absolutely recommend Jenna for any event, big or small. If I were getting married again, she’d be the one to do my wedding cake. She’s that good!“

“Best Sandwiches in Lancaster area!! And the service customer is great, will definitely come back!“

“We truly cannot sing enough praises for the Cork Factory Hotel! Jen, Keri, and the rest of the Cork staff made our weekend absolutely seamless, from start to finish. They worked tirelessly to make sure we had the best wedding weekend that we could have ever imagined. As our coordinator, Jen was a godsend! She managed every panicked email, every request, and every question with grace and kindness. The venue itself is gorgeous, and the rooms are so comfortable. The ballroom transformed from ceremony to reception beautifully. We could not imagine getting married anywhere else, and we are already planning our next trip back to visit. We have heard nothing from good things from all of our guests who attended the wedding, about how elegant the venue was, and how they enjoyed the food. We cannot thank Jen and the rest of the Cork staff enough!!“

“Delicious bagel breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Can’t wait to try their lunch menu. Friendly staff!“

“A must stop for anyone in Lancaster. I would consider this a hidden gem. If you are traveling to Lancaster and want a delicious sticky bun, skip every bakery except Mr. Sticky! They are huge, taste amazing and the price is actually very fair. I went to a Cinnabon in the mall the other day and paid $7 for a cinnamon bun! I instantly wished I went to Mr. Sticky.“

“Went to lancaster today and visited this place...Nice atmosphere...The owner and staff were very friendly, Place was very clean... The empanadas were delicious...must try an alfajore for dessert... Can't wait to visit again.... Thank you, had a great time there.....“

“the best rolls and bread around!!!“

“My husband and I make it a priority to try to stop in here when passing through the Lancaster area. Their pastries are unbelievably good, and haunt my dreams, lol. The green apple one is the favorite for both of us, and we feel that their fruit based pastries are their best, but you really can’t go wrong. Solid cup of coffee, too“

“Awesome breakfast spot - flaky croissants are the best! And the homemade ketchup! Nice outside space to enjoy with friends!“

“Sandwich and pretzels were fresh! Pretzels are like the ones we made growing up. Liked the cranberry twist to a choice as well. However, one regular was a bit overcooked. The gal that waited on us was very nice. Great stop! If you’ve never had homemade soft pretzels (not the game day kind) - then it’s a must stop!“

“Wonderful experience! Clean, and fun rides“

“We came across Amaranth Bakery at a festival recently. They had quite a selection of GF vegan options available. The brownies were the absolute best that we’ve had. Amaranth knows how to bake!“

“We got a variety of chocolates and some Carmel apples. The staff was very friendly, however she gave me milk chocolate carmels when I asked for dark chocolate, didn't notice until we got home. The chocolates are good, but not $30 a pound good.“
