50 Best Bakeries in Houston

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

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

“Food is amazing, customer service was great as well. Im not much of a social person, but they made me at ease and my family really does love the food. My mom isn't a fan of sausage, but their mini kolaches really made a difference for her“

“We tried the Cheese & Meat Manoush and falafel sandwiches, they were amazing! We will be returning!“

“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.“

“My favorite bakery by far! The Pistachio cake, Tea Cakes, salted chocolate chip cookies, lemon bars, banana pudding, and spinach artichoke danish are all incredible. I even ordered my birthday cake here — it was amazing, and my guests left no crumbs! The desserts are always fresh, and the owner Heather treats you like family. She is as sweet as her desserts! Please support this wonderful local gem! 💕“

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

“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.“

“amazing bread and pastries“

“This has to be one of the best bakeries I’ve ever visited.

We may have gone a little overboard with our order and ate almost everything before I remembered to take photos! I guess that just means I’ll have to come back soon and update this review.

We tried the Biscoff scone, Cookies & Cream cookie, chocolate chip cookie, brown butter Rice Krispie treat, blueberry muffin (with another delicious ingredient that I can’t remember because my mom ordered it), Biscoff brownie, cheesecake brownie, chocolate muffin, and strawberry muffin.

Every single thing was incredible. Honestly, there wasn’t a single miss. The muffins were perfectly moist and tender without being heavy or soggy. The cookies had a texture unlike anything I’ve had before; soft, rich, and absolutely addictive. Even the Rice Krispie treat somehow tasted elevated.

You can tell that a lot of care goes into everything they make. The flavors were balanced, the textures were spot-on, and every bite had us saying, “Okay, this might be my favorite one.”

We also had coffees that were great, the inside is picture perfect, and the staff is so kind. Do me a favor and if Milo is working, tell him I sent you!

If you’re anywhere near Houston, do yourself a favor and stop by. Just remember to take pictures before you start eating!! I clearly failed that part!“

“This was our second time using Cakes by Gina and never disappoints. The designs is exactly what I wanted and the cakes are so delicious very moist and fresh. Will definitely recommend.“

“The Baker’s Son opened in Kissimmee, FL. I was able to go to there soft opening 12/4/2025. The Filipino Baked goods are fresh, and they have a variety to choose from. I tried a couple, and loved the savory chicken filled siopao and chicken filled pandesal. The Filipino dessert baked goods were delicious too. All made fresh out of the oven. They have a cafe in the bakery that I did not get a chance to try yet, but will go with my husband and kids in the future.“

“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 ❤️“

“The Doggie Express is an absolute gem in the world of pet care! Their treats are not only high-quality and pup-approved, but they’re also made with so much heart. Every order we’ve received has been packed with love, and the dogs go absolutely wild for them! Beyond their amazing products, what truly sets The Doggie Express apart is their unwavering support of animal rescue. They’ve consistently gone above and beyond for Rescued Pets Movement and countless other rescue groups by donating and spreading the word to help save lives. It’s rare to find a small business so deeply committed to giving back. If you’re looking for treats that your dog will love AND a company worth supporting, look no further. Doggie Express is the real deal!“

“The place is very nice and clean. Lots of seasonal pastries and staples. Love how their sweets are not terriblely sweet, but rather nice and pleasant. The baguette with garlic honey where a little hard to chew on. A little on the pricy side in my opinion but worth trying.“

“Words cannot do this place justice you have to experience it yourself. The food quality, service, and atmosphere are just top tier. I got a ham and cheese croissant and it was genuinely impeccable, such rich creamy cheese and the croissant was so perfectly buttery and flakey, I also tried the almond chocolate croissant, again phenomenal the layers are so soft but still have a nice crisp exterior and god you can just taste how high quality the butter is, and the almond paste isn’t like your usual American one where it’s just a bunch of almond extract no no it’s much softer with a real genuine almond taste, with such amazing chocolate inside the two pair so well. The staff is sooo very sweet and patient, I wish I could somehow leave more than 5 stars.“

“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 ⭐️“

“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.“

“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“

“This place is good for studying/working, they have a lot of seating and outlets but it can get busy at times. The coffee it’s good, nothing crazy or specialty but just good to sip on while you do your work. Their pastries and food are great! And the staff is super nice and friendly :) I’d come again“

“The best German plum cake I've had in a long time!
It tasted just like homemade in Germany—fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious.
Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, and the service was excellent. I will definitely be back!“

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

“I ordered these based on what I was hearing. I was not disappointed. They are delicious, very well priced, and can I please take a moment to rave on their customer service? 10 out of 10.“

“Soooooo good!!!!!! The best dor breakfast or snack“

“I tried quiche Lorraine. good chocolate mousse.good too“

“This was my first visit and I loved the staff and the food.

Walking in you're greeted with a warm welcome. I asked the young man for recommendations, which he made with enthusiasm.

I ended up getting their famous egg tarts and BBQ pork pasties. Both were fresh, falvorful, and yummy.
I see why they are well known for the egg tart. It was amazing. Flakey, sweet (but not too sweet), and very satisfying. Even my mom was impressed (she loves to bake, which speaks volumes).

I will certainly be back!“

“Amazing options for those with restrictions or even those who just want to eat better ingredients. You know what you're eating is free of fillers and junk.“

“It's just a little spot (kinda hidden) that you pull up to and order at the window, but it is absolutely delicious! I had the sundae which was the perfect amount! Cookie was amazing. For me, it satisfied my need for a cookie and a slice of cake! Definitely try!“

“I needed a truly unique cake for my husband's surprise 50th birthday bash. Crafting the perfect centerpiece was crucial for capturing the essence of the event, especially since we hadn't followed traditional cake routes like wedding or groom's cakes before. I envisioned a cake that reflected his passion for design, geodes, and masculinity. Despite being in California while organizing the celebration in Houston, I turned to social media to find culinary artists. Luckily, I stumbled upon Nafise's Instagram (@leyanasugarstudio). After browsing her posts, I hoped she'd be available to assist, and my excitement soared when she agreed. I shared my inspiration and non-negotiables, then entrusted her with carte blanche to unleash her artistic talent. It was the best decision! The resulting cake was absolutely phenomenal. Many guests even questioned if it was real because it was "too stunning to be edible." In the days following the party, our family couldn't stop raving about its exquisite flavor, declaring it the best they've ever tasted. Working with Nafise was a delight, and if you're contemplating enlisting her for your special occasion, I implore you to take the plunge and say "yes."“

“Delicious Kolaches. Warm welcoming staff. Get one of each.“

“a taste of heaven is what you get at Alma's. highly recommend.“

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

“Pineapple BBQ pork bun is a must have. The contrast between the sweet, crunchy pineapple topping and the savory BBQ pork filling is easily the best in town. They are consistently fresh, fluffy, and full of flavor.
Pro-Tip: These sell out fast! Make sure to call at least 30 minutes ahead to place your order. Also, keep in mind there is a 6-bun minimum“

“I was at Emancipation park on Sunday. I told my son to go order some peach cobbler and a funnel cake. He came back with the peach cobbler on the funnel cake I was like it’s ok I’ll try it. BABBBBBYYYY me and the besties ate that so fast I didn’t even think to take a picture till it was in my throat. I am dying to drive from spring to this shop and see if I can get another one. DID NOT DISAPPOINT AT ALL!!!!!“

“Everything is wonderful but my husband’s favorite is the bread pudding., it’s an amazing spot and so quaint we love the vibe and the food..“

“My favorite custom orders include: Strawberry mini cakes Vanilla Honey mini cakes Vegan Chocolate cake with raspberry puree in the center Peanut butter cookies Peanut butter pie Chocolate Mousse Pie The cake is so moist and delicious! Also they only use maple syrup, honey, and coconut sugar so I don't feel guilty eating the treats since paleo ingredients are better for the body.“

“Absolutely outstanding pastry! The texture of these croissants is amazing!! Coffee drinks are spot on!! Loved it all!!“

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

“Titas latte, a must try. It’s possibly my favorite coffee I have tasted this side of Houston. You are greeted with a smile from everyone and super helpful. All the coffees Ive had have a perfect balance of sweetness. Not to mention the awesome banana pudding and other pastries they offer.“

“I love Crave Cupcakes! Honestly, these are the best cupcakes ever. I love that they offer gluten free options and that everything is freshly made daily.

My favorites are the strawberry and old fashioned cupcakes. They are always so soft, flavorful, and perfectly balanced in sweetness.

I also really appreciate that they have all natural ingredient treats for pups, which is such a thoughtful touch ( my pup loves it too).

Customer service is always on point and the staff is consistently welcoming and helpful.

Highly recommend if you want a treat that feels fresh, high quality, and made with care.“
