50 Best Bakeries near Bristol

“Amazing! The staff are super friendly and nice at this place.

They have outstanding coffees, pastries, and other menu items. One of my favorite items are their cookies!

They have a parking lot, the staff moves the lines quickly, you cannot go wrong with this place. I highly recommend checking it out.“

“Stopped in for a look around and got chatting with Paul (owner) who was very sweet. We loved the cakes he was able to make as well as some of the sweet treats on offer. Also delighted to see some of the paintings he also made, along with scented candles too. Really nice to spend some time chatting with, told us about the local area and other places to check out on our visit. Definitely worth stopping in for a chat!“

“This is the most perfect hole in the wall kind of gem. The pastry counter is overflowing with a variety of danishes, turnovers, palmiers, cakes, rolls, and brownies. It feels like the never ending parade of sweets your morning isn’t complete without. The sweet and unassuming ladies behind the counter give humble suggestions and pile your boxes full with a friendly smile. The bakery is cash only and everything pictured here was $10. If you skip Batista Bakery when you visit Bristol (open 7 days a week) you have missed a golden moment in your day.“

“I freaking LOVE Bristol Bagel Works. These bagels are super fresh, chewy, and literally the best bagels I've ever had (and I've been to NYC so I know bagels).

You notice the quality right away. Also one of the few places that does a banger salt bagel. 10/10!!

The shop is comfortable and easygoing, and the people are awesome. I can't recommend enough!!“

“These donuts are so soft and delicious !!“

“Delicious! The apple babka is replacing apple pie on our Thanksgiving table this year.“

“Best Around, it’s Moist & Buttery. It’s worth a drive & the calorie count for sure. It’s definitely 6 Plus Stars for Lou’s Bakery Massa (Sweet Bread) in Fall River, Ma.“

“There Delicious And Great Customer Service“

“Got my nephew’s 3-Rex birthday cake today. Came out perfect. Thank you for the added attention to the details.“

“First time ordering from here! I lucked out and she was doing the Dubai chocolate bar same week I ordered bread so I grabbed one!!! Omg it’s so delicious the it’s is so full of flavor and so smooth. The bread is also top notch.“

“The cake my daughter got is so beautiful!! Tracy did a wonderful job! Will be back cake was delicious thanks“

“They made a beautiful cake for a very special occasion on extremely short notice. It was delicious, too!“

“I love everything I've tried, and like the value you get for the price. I love it so much I have someone else go in for me. Otherwise I'll buy everything.“

“One of my wife’s friends brought some cookies for a get together and I stumbled upon them. They made this blizzard awesome! Would recommend 💯!“

“The bread is ridiculously good and the woman who works there is wonderfully helpful. She even called another bakery to help us find something we were looking for that she was out of and have us directions how to get there. The biggest loaf of bread I've ever bought cost $2.50! And it was so good that we drove 90 minutes a week later to go buy more.“

“Best bread ever and the best chocolate chip cookies. The staff is always so friendly and helpful love this place 😍“

“We went with Confections Bakery for our wedding cake. The cake and cupcakes were beautiful and delicious. We decided on the lemon-raspberry with buttercream. The buttercream was not overly sweet which we loved. Overall delicious cake, beautiful detail. Would definitely go to them again for other occasions. ❤ Thank you! Pedro and Karen Esquilin 8.20.22“

“The food here is very good and atmosphere is quaint. Can’t beat the baked goods either! My one constructive criticism is the plating of the sandwiches could use a bit of help. If you order a sandwich, that’s exactly what you’ll get and it will be tasty but adding a pickle spear and a handful of potato chips would make all the difference in the world in the presentation. Either that or serve sandwiches on smaller plates bc they look lonely on the larger ones. Thank you.“

“The Pies are so delicious!! We always bring them home to GA. The crust is very good. I love the pork filling too. Thank you for the taste of Somerset in GA“

“Never knew this existed in Warren pretzel from this place was pretty amazing. I didn’t even make it out the parking lot before it was gone. I also bought a chocolate covered Oreo white chocolate. Let me tell you. It was pretty great as well. I couldn’t be happier that I stopped into this place. I will definitely be back. Keep up the great work.“

“nothing like it anyware meat. pies are number one we travle 4 hrs just to get them thare“

“Absolutely best pastries, sandwiches and soup!!“

“Ok, honest assessment in comparing to Allies donut cakes:Allies donut cake- 9 stars out of 10McDaffas donut cake- 8.5 out of 10The frosting is identical, the donut itself is a little bit better at AlliesThat being said, the kids said they like this one better than Allies.It’s a bit confusing knowing where to go when you get there. The building itself looks like a school, you drive around back and park in the parking lot. There are no signs that tell you where to go, but you go up the set of stairs and there is a bell, you ring the bell and your donut cake is waiting on a table, someone comes out and asks your name and hands you the donut cake.All in all, it’s a good experience, I think the donut could be a tad bit better but it is a very good donut cake that the kids love, I think there could be a little bit better signage when you get there and maybe directions on how to actually get your cake once you arrive but I would definitely buy again.“

“If you're linking for an upscale spot, don't come here...
This is a 'working mans' spot. 💪

Small variety of baked goods.
Doughnuts, muffins, and a few pastries... 🍩
Some pre-made chourice sandwiches to fill you up.
And of course, great Portuguese Sweet Bread is available. 🍞

The place needs a serious upgrade into 2025, but I really can't overly criticize it either...
This is where your hard-working folks fill up on the cheap. Business like this are important, and I'm glad to see them rockin' and rollin'! 😎

Open early, very reasonably priced and friendly staff (English comes second here, but you'll be good with some pointing and a smile). 👍😊👍“

“I lived near Snell street for 11 years now, I am 14 now. And this is one of the best stores i grew up with, I come here daily and they have all the good stuff with the perfect price, Everyone is very nice, Including Rei. I might come back here in a few months or next year, Lifes kinda tough at these times. Stay safe.“

“Wonderful cannoli cake and was excited to bring home Portuguese sweet bread as well“

“Thank you, Bagel Express, for your beautiful and delicious platter of bagels and pastries for our teacher orientation day at Edward S. Rhodes Elementary School today! We enjoyed it very much! Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated! ❤️“

“Meat pies are wonderful loved the cheese and tomato pie ! Must visit“

“Recently had their donuts so good and fresh 🍩 I’ll be back for more. Also grabbed cupcakes last minute for my daughters birthday so good. Lucky to have this neighborhood bakery from desserts to pizza strips to fresh bread.“

“We are located right next door to Thyme Blossom and we have happily been coming there nearly every day for coffee and breakfast sandwiches!“

“we just got our 5th cake from Nancy's and we are always very happy with them! they not only look great but taste amazing too! I always look forward to the next occasion when I know I'll need a cake because I'll keep going back to Nancy's. our most recent cake I told them Nancy's choice for decorating and it came out better than I could have guided them!“

“Excellent“

“Blue Tile Bakery made us incredible desserts for our annual Members Appreciation Event at HMM! We got rave reviews all night long about the desserts! Thank you Blue Tile Bakery, you're the best!“

“Tony’s raiding bread is amazing . I got it twice from Ocean State Job Lot . I also bought the rolls which are equally as good . I think I’m going to try a hamburger on one of Tony’s Rolls. The combination of sweet bread and juicy cheeseburger with relish should be a hit. Keep baking those great rolls Tony“

“Delicious Ecuadorian Food“

“Delicious pastries and awesome prices“

“fresh grinders and genuinely friendly staff 😍😍😍“

“Great people!! Easiest here is get off 195 to route 138. Take a left and go down. Once you pass elite gas station make a right turn on middle The first light. Then go dow to bay st an make a left. You will see the building on your right side. Hope this helps“

“everything is great 👌staff very friendly and the pastries delicious 😋“

“Food and coffee was yummy. It was nice to have gf choices !“

“The people are wonderful here although I wish they offered a blueberry Scones or rotated their pastries a little more often to offer some new things once in a while.They used to have vanilla scones, and now they got rid of them.I think they only have ginger scones now..
But the queen aman is great.
You have to pick a not burnt one, though sometimes they're a little overdone.
I cannot say enough about the staff friendly, i'm a bend over backwards to please you...
And if you ever have a problem, ask for one of the managers, there's two girls.They will rectify your problem
No questions asked they are phenomenal!!!!
They could and should hold national conferences
In leadership to teach other managers How it's done👍“

“I just wanted to say.... THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH. I called on Monday and spoke to someone and placed an order. I needed the order shipped on Tuesday, if it ships on Thursday it sits in Chicago for the weekend. I grew up in Freetown, I now live in iowa (nowhere near linguica or sweet bread). I just received my order TODAY!!!! THANK YOU again. We will definitely be ordering again... soon!!“

“Ordered 5 doz . Party pastry for Christmas . Wonderful assortment. Absolutely delicious!! Favorite was the blueberry and raspberry strudel. Now my go to place whenever I have a get together!“

“I would gladly return but I did feel the pricing to a bit high for Fall Riv“

“Good service and neat place“

“Absolutely love this coffee shop! From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere makes you feel right at home. The baristas are friendly and knowledgeable, always eager to recommend something new or tailor a drink to your taste. The coffee is top-notch—smooth, rich, and perfectly brewed every time. I particularly enjoy their signature lattes and the selection of freshly baked pastries that pair beautifully with the drinks. The seating area is comfortable, with a nice mix of quiet corners for working and a lively vibe for socializing. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or settling in for a while, it’s always a pleasant experience. Highly recommend!“
