The Most Flavorful Bakeries in Miami

B Bistro + Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (1141) • $$

"I had heard B Bistro + Bakery had some of the best baked goods in town so I knew we had to make a stop here before embarking on our cruise later that day. As someone who can never resist a chocolate croissant, I was excited to try their pastries and brunch menu. We arrived around 11am on Sunday morning and were seated outside. One thing we weren't prepared for was how HUGE the portion sizes were. We ordered the Crab Eggs Benedict, Pastelito Pancakes, Chocolate Croissant as well as a couple of Cafe Lattes. The food was delicious and unique, I appreciated the Cuban touch of the Pastelito Pancakes with its guava preserve, cream cheese mousse, brown butter maple and vanilla crumble. It was a tad heavy and would be best shared with several people. The crab eggs Benedict was quite nice too with its crab cake on top of croissant. After this, I'll be asking why can't all my eggs Benedict come with a croissant instead of an English muffin. The ambiance was hip, light and airy and makes for a great outdoor dining experience. I wasn't used to the Miami heat and humidity so had it been later in the day, I would've opted to sit indoors instead."

Zak The Baker

★★★★☆ 4.2 (1122)

"Years ago, there use to be a bakery on Alton Road near 7th street run by a super sweet jewish lady, and there was nothing like the bread and pastries coming out of that place. Then one day she decided to retire and sold the place. Zak the baker kinda brought that back to me, but with a modern twist. You have to try their bagels. These bagels far exceeded my expectations. I daresay they were better than the bagels I had in Montreal. Added some of that nova cream cheese... Forget about it.Then there's their chocolate Bobka..... Oh my bobka.. daaaaang. Also, the size of it! Took me 3 days to finally finish just that one slice. Service couldn't have been better. Really friendly people, attentive, and courteous. I can't recommend this place enough."

Bachour

★★★★☆ 4.4 (822) • $$

"Not a bad place to get a morning breakfast or pastry and coffee. On the weekends this place is bustling with active patrons hanging out on the patio taking in the South Florida air.The service here is typical Miami, kind of spotty but overall not horrible. The pastries as well are not bad at all either. I have tried the cream filled croissant to the raisin roll to the deconstructed ferro rache. I would take the raisin roll any day of the week!Side note the salmon eggs really are salmon cooked with scrambled eggs. We thought it was actually going to be raw smoked salmon."

Dos Croquetas

★★★★☆ 4.3 (638) • $

"Dos Croquetas is the best destination for these little dep-fried morsels of joy! I remember trying Dos Croquetas years back at SOBEWFF when they had croquetas and cocktails as an event and they stood out above the rest. I was in the area on Bird Rd and we decided to stop by here for a morning pick-me-up. We came near opening and parking was easy enough (although I'm sure it gets harder as the day gets busier). They have two "VIP" looking spots up front with designated signage for Dos Croquetas and a lot towards the back of the strip plaza they are in. You can either head inside to order and eat or you can order from the window outside. We went inside so we could see the space and peruse the menu. They had a lot to offer from croqueta flights to brekkie sandwiches and wraps. For drinks, they have coffee options, and if you come later in the day, some drink options as well! For breakfast, we ended up getting the brunch daddy sandwich and the breakfast wrap. Of course, we also had to get a croqueta flight because, why not?! The brunch daddy sandwich was really good and quite big. My partner loved it and said he could totally see himself get it again when returning. I loved the breakfast wrap with the two croquetas inside. I chose the 305 croquetas because I loved the sweet and savory flavor the plantains give. The sauce it came with inside the wrap, plus the eggs, plus the croquetas- divine. For the flight, we took it to go so we were a bit confused when we got home trying to decipher which croqueta was which. When we figured it out, our favorites were the 305 (the best one!), Mexican street corn, and medianoche. The service was extremely friendly from the moment we walked in to being helpful throughout our dine here. The space has a good amount of seating with high top tables and regular seating. The decor is so cute and vibrant- definitely screams Miami vibes. Overall, such a great spot if you're looking for croquetas. Excited to come back next time I'm near this area or try one of their other locations!"

La Boulangerie Boul'Mich Pinecrest

★★★★☆ 3.8 (588) • $$

"On a Friday afternoon, I was surprised to see this place SUPER packed-- do people work? Place is busy but surprisingly we were able to snag a table with no wait.Smoked Salmon Salad - Salmon to greens ratio is perfect, PLENTY of capers Orange Juice - Fresh squeezed, on the tart side Biscoff Jar - This was MIND BLOWING, was seriously debating on bringing another back to the hotel Anyways, I definitely recommend y'all stop by and have brunch when you're in the area!"

Giorgio's Bakery & Bistro

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (723) • $$

"This is another delicious place when it comes to Greek food. Everything I've eaten at this place has been good; nothing has ever been questioned in terms of freshness and quality. The service has always been excellent. And the ambiance? Who can complain about sitting overlooking the intercoastal, with a charming young lady for a romantic evening?"

La Boulangerie Boul'Mich - Aventura

★★★★☆ 4 (521) • $$

"La Boulangerie is a decent place to grab a bite and coffee.Last time I was there I had the avocado toast with salmon and pickled red onions. While there was nothing terribly wrong with the taste, the toast was super mushy. Also, the service was extremely slow, so I wouldn't recommend dining there if you're in a huge rush."

Cachito Coffee & Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (348) • $

"This place was awesome. It seemed like all the locals came here. I went here on a Sunday morning and it was so busy but they handled it very well. I came here because it was close to my hotel but honestly didn't disappoint. I love when I can get fresh juice!!"

Chocolate Fashion

★★★★☆ 3.9 (417) • $$

"Chocolate Fashion is such an adorable Coral Gables staple. If you love croissants, coffee and French vibes, this is your spot. I have traditionally visited for pastries and breakfast but they have a solid lunch menu as well.The atmosphere inside and out makes you feel like you are in France, and I love it. If you have a special occasion, they also have phenomenal pastries and desserts. This spot has stood the test of time and has been a neighborhood favorite since the early 2000s. In Miami, to stand the test of time with great service, good prices, and delicious food is truly remarkable.If you haven't visited, make your way there for a treat. Parking is available on the street or in a few parking garages nearby."

Delices De France

★★★★☆ 4.3 (324) • $$

"The cutest lil French bakery in Miami!Came here early morning Sunday to start the morning with some baked goods and there was already a line outside the door before 8am. Apparently this bakery has been here for years and is a local favorite. The line moved pretty fast and when we came inside, we were welcome by the clean environment. They have menus displayed on their TVs on either side, to the left, an array of sandwiches and what looked to be like lunch options available and to the right was their drink menu. The cases in the front were beautiful and made it hard to choose what baked goods we wanted. The left had dessert items which we had to get an eclair and fruit tart. To the right were their croissants, breads, meat pies, and more! We ended up getting some ham and cheese croissants, turkey and cheese croissants, almond croissants, and a spinach quiche. I also got a decaf mocha iced latte and it was the first latte I've been able to finish in over a year with my extreme caffeine intolerance. I know I got decaf but sometimes decaf still negatively affects me and this one was actually so good and didn't give me any bad effects. I'm excited for my next visit just for their decaf mocha alone because I miss coffee. When all our pastries were ready (we got to-go), we decided to eat some of it outside because there was seating available. There are only a few tables but glad we got to eat them there because the style of seating definitely reminded me of Paris and how close those tables were together in the intimate setting where you could chat with other patrons. The pastries were so good and although not quite the same as Paris, it was close enough. Such a great hidden gem for French baked goods!"

Suite Habana Cafe

★★★★★ 4.8 (236) • $$

La Industria Bakery

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (539) • $$$

"First time here on a very hot 90-degree summer day. Our wait time was 1 hour standing outdoors!! We were sweating by the time we got to our table.This is Nicky Jam's restaurant, who is a famous regaettton artist. It is an all-day brunch place at the Bayside Marketplace.Inside is very Instagramable for photos.We had the La Boricua Hamburger and Chicken n Waffles for our main courses . They were amazingly delicious!! For our dessert, we split the Barbie Pancake, which was out of this world yummy! We were carbed out by then, as you can imagine. We will definitely return again, but on a cooler day. Parking is not easy, but you can find a place. This area is a must for tourists because of all the sights and shopping and activities. It is always busy and popular."

Cafe Creme

★★★★☆ 4.1 (303) • $$

"A North Miami gem of a cafe located in our 'downtown' right next to the museum and police station. Great atmosphere lots of local patrons and families enjoy the outdoor seating spaces. Service was attentively quick and food came out delicious we were there for breakfast and opted for salmon and croissant spinach Benedicts with cappuccino and strawberry ginger lemonade. Looking forward to a return visit soon."

Breadman Miami

★★★★★ 4.5 (237) • $

"Wonderful bakery - clean, simple decorations. The service was patient and sweet, as we had a few questions about a few things, as this was the first time experiencing this type of bakery. Unfortunately, there was a language barrier. Guava & Cheese pastry - flakey, buttery pastry. The guava and cheese were not too sweet. Delicious.El Cubanito: Patty of beef and chorizo, ham, cheese, potato sticks, pickles. The bread of the sandwich was good. It wasn't pressed down like I thought. But all the meats tasted good. The potato sticks were an interesting twist. Good overall sandwich. Cortadito - short shot of expresso.It was a nice little place to just relax. I think they were supposed that we sat there for as long as we did."

La Parisienne Bakery

★★★★★ 4.5 (217) • $$

"We started with the almond croissant and apple turnover. The almond croissant wasn't perfumey it was perfect and the apple turnover was jam packed with apples and tasted like butter. We then ordered the vegetable omelet and French toast. The vegetable omelet was very thin with provolone cheese and lots of veggies. The French toast was amazing it was light and fluffy with fresh tart berries and real maple syrup. The best French toast I've ever had. Finally while you're eating they're making bread and pastries right in front of you, it's so entertaining to watch them cranking out food in front of you."

Friend's Market and Bistro

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (364) • $$

"My son is moving into this neighborhood and we stopped in for lunch and to check out the market. We had a great meal- avocado toast I would definitely get that again. It had lots of avocado that was well seasoned with lemon. The service was attentive and you can sit inside or outside. The market has a good selection. My son will be going here regularly!"

L'Artisane Creative Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (209) • $$

"I love plant base food but this is a rip off . No vegan food should cost this much especially since it's just plant based vegetables that come from the ground and trees. I came here with my daughter and her husband for a lite snack when I saw the prices I refused to order any food . I just had a coffee black , they had no sugar free deserts for diabetic people like myself . My son in law ordered the cauliflower, vegan crab balls , a danish with asparagus , a tiny lemon tart, three macaroons and two more coffees and this came out to total 117.00 . I'm sorry but this place is not fine dining but a Coral Gables rip off . Parking is a pain in the you know what ."

Moises Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.1 (222) • $

"This place is great. Yes, it's a bit small and can get very busy and crowded, but the folks that work there do a good job of noticing who is next to be served. They have a large selection of bakery goodness. The prices aren't too bad either. I always get a cafe con leche sin azucar and a couple ham croquetas and cheese empanadas because those are my must-haves at any Latin bakery in Miami. Then I like to just go buck wild and point at a couple things that I don't know what they are and try them out. I have never been disappointed with my random choices. If it has custard in it, it's gonna be good here."

Patagonia Nahuen

★★★★☆ 3.9 (245) • $$

"If you like sugar then this place is going to be like heaven for you. They have quite a few pastries and all of them should be very appealing to you. it's an Argentenia restaurant and a store where you can find other goods. From coffee to pastries to so much more, you should find something that pleases you. Not a meat eater so can't let you know about those options but can certainly vouch for very good desserts."

Bagel Bar East

★★★★☆ 3.5 (291) • $$

Cafe Bonjour

★★★★☆ 4.1 (195) • $$

"I haven't been here in a long time because I always forget their hours and always come when they're closed or on vacation. I was lucky enough to grab a quick lunch before closing this week and I ordered the soup and sandwich combo. The service here is what keeps me coming back to be honest, the staff is so warm and kind. I also ended my lunch perfectly with a nice cappuccino and eclair. I want to come back to buy one of their cakes for an event because they look so good and are so popular! Everyone was picking up/ordering them when I dined."

La Boulangerie Boul'Mich - Key Biscayne

★★★★☆ 3.9 (210) • $$

"Was excited to come here as they have multiple locations around Miami and many people recommended their brunch online. Came on a weekday and was surprised that there was a bit of a line, had to wait around 10-15 minutes for a table of 4 which is not too bad. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which is nice.I ordered the Huevos Rancheros and I'm not quite sure what this dish normally is but I didn't expect them to give me just egg and sauce. Essentially there were 4 ingredients in this dish - eggs, homemade sauce, green bell peppers, and red bell peppers. It felt like you were just eating every ingredient on its own and it didn't really mix. I do have to say that it is pretty nice of them to give a free orange juice, which was very good, and coffee on the side but I was really unimpressed by the Huevos Rancheros. Not sure if I would come back, maybe for the pastries but not the actual food as it looked and tasted underwhelming. I will have to say that their bathroom is kind of in an inconvenient location, it's upstairs in the plaza, and you have to walk a bit to get there. It is clean, but yeah its a trek."

La Boulangerie Boul'Mich Doral

★★★★☆ 4.3 (160) • $$

"I came here after seeing some reels about this place and their brunch. The menu is huge and they are known for some of the specialty coffee drinks and menu items. I came on a Monday and was seated as soon as I walked in. The place is pretty open and airy. I ordered the Croque Madame "Our Style" which came with an American Coffee and natural orange juice. The portion was huge and I was not able to finish it. However flavor wise the food was bland. I feel like I could have made the same breakfast plate at home. My friend ordered the salmon egg Benedict and she said it was good but nothing out of this world. Not a huge fan of this place."

Latin American Bakery & Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.6 (182) • $$

"Delicious sandwich. Location was slower tonight than normal, but the food was still consistent. Was able to sit outside. I do have to say I do not like the fact they allow smoking outside. The fans in area are nice to circulate the air, but was circulating the smoke around too. The servers are attentive. Always filling you drink. Making sure your okay. Overall happy with location, just would prefer having non-smoking at the tables for all patrons to enjoy."

Oriental Bakery & Grocery Co

★★★★★ 4.5 (111) • $

"My first time. This store has a big arrangement of products and olives. This is an interesting place to visit. I walked around and noticed the desserts counter. Everything looked good. I bought a few of them. I don't know the name to what I ordered but it was good. It tasted freshly made. The store towards the bag has a little restaurant with tables and chairs. the menu is limited but the locals speak highly of the food here. I ordered the lamb kabobs. It was good. I enjoyed it. I also bought a pita. That was also good and tasted fresh. The worker behind the counter was very friendly and helpful. This store was a great fund for me . The store has it's own parking lot. It is right behind the store. This store is easy to spot it's located on a corner and has a good size sign"

Granier Bakery

★★★★☆ 3.6 (170) • $

"Fantastic pastries and coffee, the bakery has a very nice decor, the coffee was wonderful and the venue was comfortable.I ordered a pastry Bretzel (the cream, chocolate nuts), FABULOUS, delicate flavor, soft and delicious, also the Egg Benedict breakfast and coffee. (Medium Americano). The egg Benedict was served with Ham, two eggs a side of green salad, it tasted very delicious. The coffee was roasted and hot, it was a fantastic coffee. The staff was friendly but you have to pick up your food and figure it out were to get napkins and plastic cutlery and condiments. Plenty of parking at the plaza and outdoors seating is available. Strongly recommended."

Dora's Bakery & Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.4 (107)

La Croquantine de matthieu

★★★★☆ 4.1 (119) • $$

"Quite a nice spot for enjoying a little trip for France.The croissants and desserts in the case look nice enough to be in a fancy French bakery in Coral Gables, not some random plaza in Doral. They taste pretty good too. I got the pistachio croissant and it's literally filled with pistachio cream. Quite a few other flavors to choose from too! We also picked up a few bread to go and enjoyed them as well."

El Patio 305

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (166) • $$

"This is a solid family restaurant! So much so that I went twice this weekend! Tucked into a corner of Coral Way and just off 22nd Avenue, I stopped in Saturday while on my morning jog. Around that time, I was one of maybe three other customers and stopped to watch the world cup. I sat down, almost in line with their very large screen TV and watched France beat Belgium while enjoying their timely water refills (I was working out), sweet fried plantains and a generously larged, well done pollo a la plancha (grilled chicken breast). Of course, I also enjoyed an espresso.Fast forward to taking mima to lunch Sunday. When I was there Saturday, I saw mostly families and mom prefers typical Latin comfort food dishes. Today, I did indulge!We were attended by the same friendly staff and got a nice corner table also with view of the TV. World Cup matches had finished, and they were nice enough to change the channel so that I could watch the NFL games (Go Dolphins!!)My Sunday supper was their Churrasco. A very large piece of smoky flavored meat that covered a lot of plate real estate (and had to take half as takeout), complemented with three large crispy tostones and their red bean soup (frijoles Colorado) all indulged my palate as the Dolphins win indulged my sports fandom. The egg on the steak ("a caballó") was nice and runny for extra flavor and protein.Why would I leave steak? Well their yuca fries were nice and crispy; put together with Papa Colombiana (a baked potato with a melted cheese sauce) was too good to skip. Besides, I had to leave some space for their creamy tree leche dessert (and another Cortadito)."

Arahi's Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (92) • $

"Discount Cuban Food.Three of us ate for $30 in total ... not too bad.Coffee, rice, beans and maduros were absolutely wonderful.Mains, soups and baked goods were meh.On the plain meat I got served for my main course (Liver with onions and green peppers), I forgot about the hot sauce on my table.I have little doubt that hot sauce would have helped a lot.* * *Arahi's is on the eastern fringe of Little Havana.Go west on Calle Ocho and you hit the epicenter of the Little Havana tourist zone.This part of Calle Ocho is to be avoided like the plague.Go farther west and you are in Cafe Versailles and La Carreta land.Once again Cuban paradise has been restored.* * *You are not here for legendary Cuban.You go to Havana Harry's for that.You are not here for portions that are massive beyond massive beyond massive.Again you go to Havana Harry's for that.You are here for everyday Plain Jane Cuban at an attractive price.The place is 2/3 full most of the time - which is pretty good.Nearly all of the customers are old Cubans.There is not a tourist to be seen.The menu is written in illegible handwriting on a plastic board.Bring your reading glasses.Bring your willingness to take random guesses as to what the more incomprehensible lines actually mean.But there is more to like than to dislike.If you ate here regularly, you would find the main dishes they have here that are actually pretty good.* * *If you go to one and only one Cuban restaurant in Miami,Arahi's bakery shouldn't be it.If live in Miami, you are not made of money, and the rent for your apartment is killing you,Arahi's looks better and better."

Caracas Bakery Doral

★★★★☆ 4.2 (80) • $

"Flavors - 4.8/5Textures - 4.5/5Presentation - 4.5/5Value for Money - 4/5Would return? Yes Must-try: PalmeritasI am in love with this bakery. Everything I have tried is from good to excellent! A bit on the expensive side, but worth it. The cachitos are the best in Miami. They are very soft and the flavor is delicious. The quality of the ham is great. I wish it had a little more moisture inside (which some bacon could easily solve). The ones filled with ham and cheese could use a more melty cheese. The ham and cheese croissants are scrumptious! So freaking good - very airy, crispy, and buttery. Enough ham and cheese that is not overwhelming. You absolutely need to get a palmerita (palmier), which is a food dream come true. The extra caramel on the outside made it sooooo crispy and the butter is in your face but in the best way possible. My mouth waters as I write this."

Mr Mandolin

★★★★☆ 3.9 (92) • $$

"Mr. Mandolin, where flavor meets fun! I had the chicken kabob, my friend went for the chicken shawarma, and we were both on cloud nine. The Greek salad with that feta? OMG, a 10/10 flavor explosion! But wait, the Tzatziki sauce - it's my favorite part of it all! And oh, that greek orange blossom cake, it's basically dessert heaven on a plate.The ambiance is just as appetizing as the food - cozy and inviting. Service? Top-notch! Mr. Mandolin, you've got it all, from authentic and delicious Greek street food elevated with a sweet twist to fantastic staff and ambiance. If you're in the mood for a delicious adventure, don't think twice, just go here! Your taste buds will thank you!"

Macita's Restaurant & Bakery

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (120) • $$

Café Chantilly

★★★★☆ 4.4 (57) • $

"Driving to my dads house for brunch today we decided to pick up coffee because his coffee is not strong enough for me. However, we noticed their tequeños looked succulent and went for them. When I say these are the best tequeños I've ever had I mean it and it was completely unexpected. The dough almost felt like a croissant, but it wasn't too flaky that it falls apart and the cheese was perfectly melted. Our toddler loved them so much that for dinner he kept asking for more tequeños and even cried that we didn't have any left. The coffee was good, but they well earned five star for their tequeños."

La Sin Rival Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.2 (61)

"Great little Cuban bakery located in a strip mall. It's open during quarantine, and they've done a good job getting organized and prepared for social distancing. You can order your favorite pastries and Cuban coffee to go. The ladies are as sweet as the guava pastries, and I'm happy to see places like this still operating. Visited on a weekday and they had consistent customers. Prices were great."
