4 Best Bakeries near Gatlinburg

“We went there around Easter and for the first time we explored this part of Gatlinburg. I will tell you all the shops are super cute but the locals that own and work in these are so personable. I met Olga and although I can’t have cinnamon my three kids and husband loved them. They are huge, warm, and gooey and they lived them. I will be stopping in every trip.“

“Byrd’s Famous Cookies is a delightful surprise tucked into downtown Gatlinburg. The staff are warm and generous with samples, and the variety of flavors—from Key Lime Coolers to Cheddar Pecan Biscuits—makes it hard to leave empty-handed. The cookies are bite-sized, crisp, and packed with flavor, perfect for gifting or snacking on the go. It’s a must-stop for anyone with a sweet tooth or looking for a local treat with personality. The store layout is clean and inviting, with seasonal packaging and gift sets that make browsing enjoyable. Prices are fair, and the staff are happy to help you explore new flavors without pressure.“

“We stop here whenever we are in Gatlinburg and really enjoy chatting with the staff and the soft serve ice cream. Highly recommended. Thank you.“
