50 Best Bakeries in Houston

“The owners are so lovely and nice. It was my husband's and I first time there and they gave us samples of their Vietnamese coffee and Thai tea (both are great) before we ordered, and their Koloches are fluffy and delicious. Definitely coming back when we're in the area!“

“The parking lot and the store were easy to get to. When we entered, my husband and I weren’t greeted. There is a plentiful selection of various Filipino baked goods, like ensaymada and Ube treats. You can also order milkshakes, fruit drinks, and coffee. There is outdoor seating. The place was packed, which tells you it is really good. My husband and I especially enjoyed the Ube brownies, which had a rich flavor. We were served fast - in and out in ten minutes. Since a lot of people were at the bakery, there wasn’t much room to walk. There is no restroom, so keep that in mind. You may also want to do some research on Filipino baked goods before coming here (if you’ve never had them before), as there are no explanations on the signs. Overall score: A-“

“Bread and dessert taste wonderful not to sweet just right.“

“first time trying something trying something from a bakery love bakeries even I want to work at one in the future.“

“Lots of cake options for walk ins! Everything was delish and everyone was so helpful.“

“Best cookie shop in Houston Texas. Highly recommend. The owner is so friendly and you can tell she is very passionate about what she does. 10/10 recommend.“

“This is a delicious dessert bakery. It's hard not to stop by sometimes and try something. They have these chocolate pecan tarts which are pretty amazing, and different ice creams, but really everything I've had here has been good. They have weekend specials, but they run out of them pretty quickly - so you have to keep an eye out on their socials and get there early.“

“Been coming here for years for their awesome addictive Gingerbread Men! Now my grand baby is sharing this tradition and tasty treat. We get a dozen cookies and split because 6 cookies are gone before driving off lol“

“Loved everything I tried! The seeded sourdough, the spinach burekas and the raspberry almond croissants.“

“Chill spot to drink coffee/tea and enjoy time with friends. Enjoyed having our book club meeting there.“

“My favorite bakery in town. I go once a week! Their breads and cakes are delicious! They are authentic just like where I grew up (Taiwan❣️）. Fresh and yummy. I have ordered several birthday cakes here as well, everyone loves it and ask me where I got it from. I hope they bring back full stocks of variety soon, they limited many items since pandemic. I miss many of their items.“

“Thank you for still making delicious cakes. My son’s 17th birthday cake was sooo good (his words). 🙂“

“I love love love their cupcakes. Very fresh and flavorful. Their creams are really flavourful. We tried:

1. Dark chocolate 5/5 - the taste is not actually like dark chocolate but I loved it.

2. Italian cream 5/5

It's a very cute place. They dog treats too.“

“Best kolaches I’ve ever had. If there’s a line, it moves quick.“

“El pan es recien hecho todos los dias, esta muy rico y fresco. Se lo recomiendo 🙏🏽“

“First ever Kolache! Excellent!“

“We met Maria and her co-worker. We were well taken care of! Without any hesitation they took the time to explain the different options and flavors. We really appreciated being treated like family!! Thank You Maria for being Great at what you Do!“

“Such delicious and fresh cakes !! Totally worth the price ! The employee was also very kind and sweet. She asked if I needed a happy birthday sign I said yes please it’s for my mom’s birthday. She provided birthday candles and a cutting knife. Great service and very attentive! Thank you so much ! Will be returning to buy more birthday cakes !!!!“

“We were looking for a good Mexican Restaurant for breakfast and this one had great reviews. Went ahead and visited the place. We definitely do not regret going. I ordered a Vampiro drink (I believe that is what it was called) and it was healthy, freshly made, and delicious. My boyfriend ordered green chilaquiles and I ordered the breakfast croissant. Both were exquisite. Our server was amazing and very welcoming. There is a gentleman there taking care of the wait list and of cleaning up, and he too was very welcoming. We are from out of town so we weren’t knowledgeable about the menu, and the employees here were very understanding and answered any of the questions we had. Thank you!“

“The best doughnut shop!!! They bring back the taste of the original doughnut. Thank you!!!“

“November 2024

This bakery is a must stop for us in Houston. Great value and generous portion. Taiwanese style bakery with many different flavors, salty or sweet.

Highly recommend this bakery when visit HTown.

Parking: Great parking spots.“

“Bánh bao, Bánh mì, Bò né ở Thiem Hung BakeryCafe rất ngon“

“I’m not going to lie. I was iffy on the concept of an outdoor cookie shop — in this Texas heat, I think not!

In this instance, I was gladly proven wrong. My experience at Milk and Cookies really blew me away. The chocolate chip cookies was to die for, the ambiance Pinterest worthy, and not going to lie, there was something about ending my day outside with a warm cookie that made the experience magical.

It was a 9/10 experience that will have me going back the next time I crave a sweet treat; the only thing that could have made it better was if my milk was a little bit more cold when served lol, and if they had a little bit more seating. Truly think they can either fit a picnic table or 1-2 more mini tables in the lawn area.

Tip: I have a couple. First, as the name suggests, you can literally order a glass of milk alongside your cookies. I’d recommend you do this to tie the experience together. As well, I’d visit when the sun is going down. It honestly wasn’t too hot around 6pm but peak TX heat can be brutal. Be careful out there. Finally, Milk & Cookies can be a cute way to end your date with a little sweet treat, js!“

“Simply, it’s good stuff! And the staff is courteous and helpful (I can never tell the different empanadas apart).“

“deliciosos panes y exelente servicio“

“Really like this place but wouldn't drive more than 20 mins for it. Well, maybe I would, because their Cinnamon Crunch donut is so good! Their sugar glazed was generous, and the sausage kolaches are delicious too. This place cooks the jalapeno with the sausage together--it's way better done here than at Le Donut 3 miles away (which surprisingly has the same 4.6 rating as Christy's). There the jalapeño is just sliced and put next to the meat. That being said, Christy's please put more cheese in your kolaches! It's hardly there.“

“Portions are wonderful free coffee refills and exceptional service! Chicken fried chicken with house gravy is my all time favorite. When I need to southern comfort breakfast I always come to HoP any and every time over a waffle house, Dennys, or IHOP. Definitely my favorite dinner hands down. Look at the number of reviews! No one even comes close! 6k and counting!“

“Coincidentally, I ran into someone wearing a Sinfull Bakery shirt. I asked about the vegan reference. I did not realize I was talking to THE Chef Dylan of the bakery. I decided to take a Saturday drive and check it out. Wonderful surprises were waiting for me! Had the Monkey Bread Muffin and purchased the cheesecake with apple topping for later. I will definitely return. Check it out.“

“The BEST Cookie I’ve ever had🤤 and don’t forget to get your ice cream as well❤️“

“I went alone for breakfast on my birthday - never been to Rustika. Ordered the Migas & Mexican Chia hot drink - I had a most wonderful time, as the server Ally, cut a piece of cake with a candle on it as a surprise. Very nice, kind person!! Then a customer walked in for his first time, and sat and had breakfast with me! What a wonderful atmosphere, and fun! Thank you Ally for making my birthday special!!! Food Delicious!!! mpg“

“The sweets were absolutely delicious! Thank you for the amazing treats and great service.“

“Cinnabon is the best place to go for a delicious treat!! Yummy. :)“

“Fast friendly efficient service at this location. It has always taken me just a few minutes in and out. Food is consistently prepared well here. Chicken Enchilada is awesome. My kids like the sausage and cheese and pizza. Emily is pretty high energy so of you want to wake up for the morning order from her ?.“

“This is my first time coming to Le Swan Bakery, I would definitely recommend them ! Such beautiful work , cake was delicious, and macrons were wonderful! Everything was a hit“

“Great little vegan bakery with allergen free goodies!“

“Crumbl Cookies is a sweet lover’s paradise and a treat worth indulging in. From the moment you step into the shop, the aroma of freshly baked cookies hits you, and the sleek, modern design of the store makes the experience feel special.

The highlight is, of course, their rotating weekly menu. Each visit feels like a new adventure, with creative flavors ranging from classics like Chocolate Chip (perfectly gooey and rich) to more innovative options like Churro, Peanut Butter Blossom, or their signature Pink Sugar cookie. Every cookie is oversized, soft, and baked to perfection, with just the right balance of sweetness and texture.

What sets Crumbl apart is not just the cookies but the presentation. Each box feels like a gift, making it great for sharing (if you can!) or giving as a thoughtful treat. The staff is always friendly, happy to explain the week’s flavors, and the in-store pick-up process is seamless.

Though the cookies are on the pricier side, the quality and experience justify the splurge. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just need a sugar fix, Crumbl is a must-try.“

“A neighborhood gem worth discovering Today was my first visit and I’m already looking forward to coming back. Everything I tried was outstanding: the coffee was perfectly balanced, the almond and chocolate croissant was crisp on the outside and wonderfully tender inside, and the sourdough bread—absolutely delicious. Golden crust, airy crumb, and full of flavor. You can tell there’s real passion and quality behind everything here. A spot that truly elevates the neighborhood bakery experience.“

“Knew this place from the Galleria location. Saw this location is finally open, so decided to check it out. Place has a very nice dining area and living up to its name "boutique." Saw "Mont Blanc (chestnut-flavored cake)" and tried it; it's a popular cake in Japan. It was rich and flavorful. Didn't buy their mille crepes this visit but I bet they are excellent. They often have different seasonal flavors of them, sawand also have special cakes like Mont Blac too. It's a very good treat.“

“I had the briscuit egg and cheese klobasniky. All I can say is WOW!!! I also had a sausage and cheese klobasniky and It was also very good. They use Prasek’s sausage (actual sausage), not the little hot dog wiener’s you see at other places in and around Houston. Randy you are doing a great job!! I will be by to see you again soon.“

“Best egg tart I’ve ever had—hands down! Perfectly crisp, flaky crust with a rich, creamy filling that’s just the right amount of sweet. You can tell it’s made with care and quality ingredients. Absolutely addicting. I’ll be back for more!“

“I went in there yesterday to your bakery and got some sweet bread that my wife been asking me for. I loved all the sweet bread y'all sell there I got a little bit of everything and it was all worth my money. Very recommended to anybody especially over you of cakes y'all have now ❤️“

“I’ve been twice to the Katy location and the desserts are amazing!“

“I saw a review on instagram and it’s on my way to work so I stopped by today. I bought 2 chocolate croissants and a Guava plus a kolache. My coworkers loved the croissants and I fell in love with the guava. I rarely post reviews but I think you guys deserve 5 ⭐️“

“Such intricate work. And delish! And I’m very picky! Amazing artistry AND flavor!“

“I been get cake from for a long time the pineapple coconut and the German chocolate is two of my favorite my family just got cake from there last weekend and ever body love the cakes all they was ask where these cake come from I let be known they came from A&K Cake shop down the street“

“ONLY CASH!!! And hard to believe so cheap

All bread we had was good especially pork bun. Not too strong taste but savory is there with soft bun. A staff is so nice.
Sorry we forgot cash and took a while to finish our order.
Definitely come back again.“

“The best bakery in town! Great food and good prices.“

“I was enjoyed Turkish coffee with butter & sugar pie. Clean and exotic indoor seating. No outdoor searing. Ordered food first and selected a table. Place your number on the table. Sever would deliver your food.“

“Take a baguette to go. Delicious.“

“Lots of cake options for walk ins! Everything was delish and everyone was so helpful.“
