50 Best Bakeries in Richmond

“Super friendly and fast service!! Our first visit and staff was very helpful!“

“Crumbl Cookie is a game changer! The variety of flavors is incredible, with each cookie baked to perfection. They have a perfect balance of chewy and soft textures, and the creativity in their seasonal offerings keeps me coming back for more. The staff is always friendly, and the warm cookies right out of the oven are a delightful treat. Highly recommend the classic chocolate chip—it's simply unbeatable! Crumbl never disappoints; it's my go-to for a sweet indulgence. Five stars all the way!“

“We have been here twice now, both times we were passing through on our way home from vacation. Their cheddar bay biscuits are AMAZING. I wish I had ordered extras to take home with me. My husband got the buffalo chik’n sliders from the refrigerated case and said it was SO good. My son got a huge piece of coffee cake and loved it. We also each got cheddar bay biscuit, and I also got a chocolate croissant and an iced chai. Everything was amazing! They also have a mini store front with lots of awesome vegan products. Candy bars, seasonal items, stickers, jewelry and lots more.“

“amazing bread and quality. I've bought laofs meant for the week and haven't seen Wednesday because they are so good it's hard not to work into a meal. fluffy light and perfectly baked!“

“my cake was delicious and beautiful! the flavor options are wonderful, especially if you are trying to get away from the white/chocolate/marble varieties. Everything was fresh, I could smell the lemon through the box (because it was REAL lemon) and I couldn't be happier!“

“Everything is fantastic! Had the Boston Crème croissant, lemon lavender scone, cinnamon roll croissant, and the Irish soda bread! So delicious! Be sure to give them a try, you will love it!“

“These are some amazing biscuits. They also have great coffee and delicious sweet concoctions. Also, no matter how busy this place gets, the service is always top notch and fast! I have seen them get through 20 people in less than 5 minutes. Definitely a gem in the Fan.“

“I had them do 24 cupcakes for my Mom’s 75th birthday and they not only looked amazing, they tasted amazing! I got so many compliments on how good they were and I definitely pointed them to Smallcakes!“

“A friend and I went to the store this week, it was well worth the 5 hour drive! The service was super! The Box lunch was awesome! The Breads were the best ever! You will not be disappointed! The Blueberry cookies, challah bread, Ukrainian bread, pumpkin bread, pimento cheese and honey butter cannot be matched anywhere else! Kudos to all the staff who made the delicious bread and goodies! Well, worth the drive for old fashioned customer service and great products! Thank you to all!“

“Made our wedding cake and macarons. All our guests commented about how delicious they both were. I highly recommend- you won’t be disappointed!“

“Authentic Argentinean, love the crunch on the outside and softness inside! My favorites are the ones filled with dulce de leche!“

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE+1(8O5)-41O 5OO2 NO NONSENSE AND GREAT ASSISTANCE!!“

“I come to IH all the time, right on my street. This morning I got the mixed berry galette and it is the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Not too sweet, perfectly flaky, with the slight crunch of granulated sugar washed on the dough. It is absolute perfection. Please consider making it a regular 😍 Thanks for all you do. Great bakers, great staff, love the music. Thankful you’re always there for brekkie when I’ve been too lazy to grocery shop.“

“Amazing delicious and so creative“

“I purchased a cake and cupcakes for my daughter’s 2nd birthday and they were absolutely AMAZING!!! The party was majority nonvegan and no desserts were left! 10/10 highly recommend!“

“Great Bread!“

“El pan súper rico y fresco“

“Tbh, I recommend everything! We met her at NuVegan about two weeks ago, and was thoroughly impressed! She had samples that inspired us to buy about five products. But wait, we ordered (sea moss & brownies) yesterday, and she delivered by hand today, all the way from Richmond to Newport News!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Try it, you’ll love it!“

“Hoy por primera vez desayuné en este local. Fui en compañía de dos amigas y el servicio fué excelente. Todo el staff fué muy amable, el local estaba muy limpio, la comida es exquisita y los precios muy accesibles. Espero tener la oportunidad de regresar nuevamente.“

“Our experience with getting our wedding cake from Sugar Magnolia was the best! After submitting an inquiry, we worked with the owner, Ella, to confirm flavor, design, and all logistics. On the day, the wedding cake looked exactly like the inspirational photos we had sent over and it tasted even better than it looked. The price was great and we got lots of compliments. If you’re looking for anything custom made in the Richmond area we would highly recommend!“

“This was my favorite food in Richmond for breakfast/lunch. The people are friendly and patient with questions. The space is warm and inviting, but room for quiet work or reading too. And OMG! the food. I ordered it 3x in 5 days, including some to take home. Don’t miss this gem!“

“We used the mixing bowl for our wedding this past May. I had such a lovely experience with them throughout the entire planning process. They really helped us narrow down our options and speak to the way in which each flavor and icing style would present aesthetically so that we could help coordinate our choices to fit our wedding! They also were extremely patient as our guest count fluctuated and allowed us to edit our guest count accordingly up until the very end! The cupcakes and cake turned out BEAUTIFULLY! People were absolutely raving about how delicious the wedding cake was — some even said it was the best they’ve ever had! They also helped facilitate our design plan of incorporating edible flowers into our desserts. It looked so cool and unique! I would totally recommend them to anyone in the market for a wedding or event. They’re great!“

“Our go-to for desserts, and they just happen to be vegan! Flavorful, beautifully prepared, unique items you can't find elsewhere. The savory options are amazing too, they are magicians with seitan. Don't miss their seasonal offerings for holidays! Most recently we had a delicious box of items for high tea from their Mothers' Day menu and everything was perfect and fresh. We are really lucky to have Sunflower Gardenz in our city, a hidden gem for sure“

“Esta muy pero muy delicioso el pan de esta panadería se los recomiendo“

“Quesadillas and Tres leches are sooooo good 😊“

“Sefton is the greatest cafe in richmond, the staff are so kind to everyone who comes in. I get the same thing every time I come in to the point where barista’s and the owners know my order 😂. I get it bc it’s easy on my stomach, but they have such an amazing looking menu and are always changing it to fit the season! I always make sure to bring friends and family who are visiting here because it really is a special part of the community 🙂“

“Literally the best cake I've had in a long time. The cake takes me back to my childhood...it was amazing. They made a turtle shell cake which we thought no one would be able to deliver and it was better than the picture we sent.“

“Pat nailed it!! She made me a cake for my wife that no one around knew what it was nor wanted too. She did an absolutely amazing job! It was delicious and very pretty! My wife loved it! Thank you so very much Pat! Highly recommend you to anyone!“

“Absolutely delicious food. Super sweet owners. We were offered tasty samples of several items. We went gor lunch and left with extra food for the weekend. Hummus creamy and delicious 😋. We'll definitely be back. yummy“

“PIES AND CAKES!!!! Absolutely delicious, with a fierce commitment to their customers. We were lucky enough to have Chas create our gorgeous and delicious wedding cake. Not only that, but she prepared 3 tester cakes to enjoy with my family beforehand. I have zero regrets when it comes to my wedding cake-creator choice. I wish I could have recorded the reactions of my guests when they tasted this cake. It was deliciously perfect. Thank you Chas and family for making this the easiest and most delicious choice during wedding planning! Highly suggest letting this be your easiest choice, too!!“

“The cheesecakes are incredible!“

“Ice cream was so creamy. It was probably the best ice cream I’ve ever had.“

“My cake was delicious and I got a great price on it !“

“so I recommend Kroger is one of the better grocery stores that we have to choose from in our area. however it bothers me quite a bit the way they devalue the human resource and force customers to work. I've spent a lot of time as a cashier and a lot of different industries and when I come into a grocery store and spend the money that I spend I don't want to have to become an employee and check out as well as bag my own groceries it makes two statements one is they do not value their customer's time enough and they don't value the human resource because they're more concerned about the bottom line than the opinions of their customers. wow how ridiculous to make employees work less hours so they can get customers to do that same work.“

“i tried their macarons and they were DELICIOUS! they were so huge, but still very good. the texture and flavor was amazing. strongly recommend. i will definitely be back!“

“Great savory and sweet pies and terrific people!“

“I finally had a chance to check this place out and was not disappointed! Staff is super friendly, food is amazing and the location is clean and adorable! 10/10.“

“Amazing desserts and pastries with a great atmosphere.“

“The rosemary sea salt are my favorite!“

“I ordered a dozen macarons today, variety, just trying to find myself a macaron bakery close by. So far, three in, they are WONDERFUL! The macaron cookie itself is the perfect chewy, airy texture. The fillings is light and almost melts in your mouth. The flavors have been on point. Not too sweet. I will be ordering again for sure!“

“Look forward to the oatmeal cream pies every year when we come down for the Richmond Marathon. Thanks so much for whipping up another batch tonight!! Perfection! #WillRunForOCP“

“los mas delicious Cinnamon!👌“

“Great spot to get your sweet treats when needed! If you’re ever worried about items running out, you can always call ahead and place an order early in the morning and usually they will be able to meet your preference on what you need so that you can come pick up later in the day.

The employees are always helpful and are always willing to explain every item they have and what they are.

Always have had a pleasant experience here and enjoy driving out of my way to come here at least once or twice a week.

They go above and beyond also to make sure you are happy with your items and always remember you when you are in the bakery.

You will not regret going here!“

“I’m a bit disappointed! I came to get ice cream and funnel cake. The kitchen was already closed, well before the listed closing time and the cost of the ice cream for a single scoop was shocking. I know y’all have good food but I will be reconsidering coming back. 🥺“

“Amazing food and staff“

“Just tried at the Farmers Market and I’m beyond obsessed! The best thing I’ve ever had!“
