17 Best Bakeries near Monroe

“A friend has been recommending Woodruff’s for some time now. I live in Roanoke so it is a bit of a trek to get there. This weekend, I found myself post breakup and needed a distraction so what better thing to do than toss the wee ones in the car with your bestie and drive for pie? When I tell you this place is what any doctor would recommend to mend the spirit, I say that with that I have. As the kids would put it, no cap. The minute you walk in, it feels like you are in grandma’s kitchen. There is such kind, loving energy. Darnell, Angela, and Melissa were there during our visit and they took time to engage with each customer yet made me feel like I was the whole reason they showed up to work. And the pie?? 🤤 I may have had pie for breakfast the last two days. We tried the apple, chocolate peanut butter, sweet potato, buttermilk, lemon chess, and Keylime pie topped with the FRESH hand pies. (I had to wrestle my oldest for one bite of the peach and they were kind enough to share the cherry.) For me: Woodruff’s is two thumbs up all around.“

“They made a delicious and nicely decorated cookie cake for my son’s party. It was delicious and a hit! Great customer service also!“

“Sweet Indulgence Bakery isn't just a place for delicious pastries; it's a community treasure to me. Not only do they serve the most melt-in-your-mouth European-style pastries,but they also have a heart of gold. The icing on their already perfect moist cakes isn't just amazing it's the kind of sweet that comes with a soul. As if it's truly being made with love. They hire trauma survivors, offering them a chance to rebuild and heal through the art of baking. That commitment to uplifting others adds something special to each bite. It's rare to find a bakery where every pastry feels like a little act of kindness.Sweet Indulgence truly embodies the spirit of generosity. Especially in their mission. 💜“

“One of our best finds in Lynchburg. Vanilla lattes, scones, croissants and quiche are just a few of our favorites!“

“The sausage egg & cheese on a biscuit is amazing! The biscuits are so soft & fluffy and the eggs are fresh! The glazed donuts are like clouds and glazed to perfection! The owner is such a kind gentleman.“

“The gluten free chocolate chip cookie cake is quite delicious!“

“HumanKind held their Gratitude Day celebration yesterday and all our desserts came from Chestnut Hill Bakery. We had cookies, doughnuts, brownies, dessert bars, and my favorite, cream puffs. All the treats were a huge hit with our employees. They made everything for us and had it ready to pick up Tuesday morning. One box was left out and they graciously delivered it to us. They were easy to work with and very professional and friendly.“

“Excellent Customer Service Forest location. The variety is amazing! The Bars are my absolute favorite ❤️ The Lemon bar,the pumpkin bar, THE Pecan Pie Bar is perfection!!!“

“The cakes made at the bakery are top notch. I have tried many places. The cakes made at other places are good, but Julie who makes the cakes is the best.“

“Tasty treats and wonderful people!“

“A great place to buy bread and pastries. Looks like it's not open but it is. Great place to pickup older bread for dressing, just ask. Very tasty sandwich cookies. Not too sweet. Great prices. Good customer service. I would recommend giving them a try for your bread needs.

Wheelchair accessibility: They do have a ramp and special parking.“

“Loved seeing the place and learning about the bread and snacks being made. But worked on the building in an expansion and was really surprised in the precautions they take to ensure the food isn't contaminated and the quality still assured.“

“Frosted Ridge Confections has the best sweet treats! They have impressed me on multiple occasions—from cupcakes for a bachelorette party, to some gluten free and allergy friendly treats for my office, to random delicious goodies for myself, and to a custom cake order most recently. The amount of cake flavors to choose from is overwhelming but lemon blueberry was a winner yesterday at the baby shower I hosted! Look no further for your custom cake needs and any sweet tooth cravings! Such a great business!“

“Kissed Cupcakes has been my Lynchburg ‘go-to’ for all things gluten free cupcakes/specialty baked goodies for over ten years now! The owners, management and staff are there to help you with your personalized order and their price ranges are perfection. If you’re looking for delicious and beautiful wedding or event cupcakes, work with Kissed Cupcakes. As a professional wedding planner, I highly recommend them for all your yummy treats!“

“It's your standard Walmart. There are better examples of stores but this one is fine for you normal run off the mill Walmart. The one on Wards Rd is bigger as is the one on Forest. It has all the things you would expect in a Walmart. The craft and business supply sections could be better. The over all layout is pretty typical. Over all of you can't find what you need it's either your not looking or this slightly smaller Walmart just doesn't have it.“

“This morning I sent my husband out to pick up coffee and he came back with the freshest most delicious donuts. Thank you for the treats! 🍩“
