10 Best Bakeries in Pigeon Forge

“Holy heck. I was skeptical, have had a lot of good cinnamon bread in my time, but just from walking by you could smell the deliciousness and I knew it was going to be amazing. We got 3 cinnamon breads for 6 people and ate them all! They were SO amazing fresh all warm and the icing melts on them 🤤 DO NOT miss this place while at Dollywood.“

“was in there tonight and it was crowded. one worker had a problem and had to step away. That left just one...we did not get her name but she handled it like a boss. matter of fact she tried to call her manager several times and manager didn't answer (imagine that). A tip was left ... thank you for the positive attitude“

“Spotlight Bakery in Dollywood is so worth a stop if you’re craving something freshly baked while in the park. I started my day with a plain croissant, and honestly? It was perfect. Flaky, buttery, and just what I needed as a little walking-around snack. I wasn’t expecting much, but it really surprised me.

Later, as we were leaving the park, we decided to grab some of their famous cinnamon bread—definitely a Dollywood must-try. We got two kinds: one with icing (classic and delicious!) and another with apple butter. Here's where it lost a star for me: they charged almost $2 for a tiny 2 oz cup of apple butter... and it wasn’t even filled up all the way. You maybe get 1 oz if you're lucky. For that price, I expected at least a full serving. It just felt a little stingy, especially when the rest of the experience was so good.

Still, overall the baked goods were amazing and lived up to the hype. I’d definitely go back, but maybe skip the apple butter unless they decide to give you what you actually paid for!“

“Delicious cookies! Free samples really helped us decide which cookies to get. Got the 6 bags for $45 deal to save and be able to get some of all the samples we liked! The bite sized cookies are fun! Kevin gave us the most friendly, best customer service!“

“Absolutely the most amazing cinnamon rolls. Great customer service! Highly recommend to everybody!“

“Awesome place and huge portions.“

“We came to pigeon forge gatlinburg area for a vacation/ belated honeymoon and we had seen on tik tok about this small family owned business. Both my husband and I haven’t had funnel cake in years and we were blowen away by all the choices. Between the ice cream to fudge etc. we choose to go with the traditional but wanted strawberries. The staff was incredible. They put the strawberries and whip cream in containers on the side and we got to dip our cake into it. It was delicious. Fresh hot light and flaky. I could not recommend this place enough. We love supporting small business. Definitely a place we will come back to in the future“

“We ate there today and it may have been the best burger I’ve ever eaten!! All fresh ingredients, homemade ketchup for the fries! Yum!! Great job!!“

“Very happy customer!

Placed an order back in Feb '24 for a cookie cake for my birthday & was made as expected but unfortunately I had to leave town before the store opened and was already paid for.

Called the store and spoke with the manager Chris and he said although he didn't think corporate would issue me a refund he would take my name down and the next time I was in the area he would have another one made for me.

After nearly 7 months, I called him back and he remembered who I was and was still willing to honor his commitment. Was finally able to pick up the cake a couple days ago & just wanted to share my appreciation for Chris at Great American Cookie for his understanding & willingness to take care of me. All around great service & highly recommend this location for all your cookie cake, cookies or ice cream needs! Thanks again Chris.“

“Not sure why people are giving bad reviews. Me and my kids are from IL, and we loved the cupcakes“
