Baked on 8th delivers cakes and slices with a nostalgic touch that still feels modern. The shop is known for moist layers, clean designs, and flavor combos that never miss. The Jewish apple cake, strawberry slices, and oatmeal creme pies are steady favorites. Prices stay friendly, which makes Valentine's gifting feel accessible.

This cozy, art-filled café is a go-to for Market Square wanderers and downtown locals alike. Coffee & Chocolate lives up to its name with strong espresso drinks and a tempting lineup of handmade chocolates, macarons, and pastries. It’s compact but never cramped, with both indoor and sidewalk seating.
If you’re after something sweet, Magpies is non-negotiable. Known for their custom cakes and cupcakes, they’ve also got cookies, cheesecakes, pies, and an endless rotation of other baked goods. Everything tastes rich, real, and made with care. The chocolate mocha strawberry cake is a local legend, and they even offer military discounts.
For the sweet tooths and cinnamon roll fanatics, Cinnaholic is a dream. This fully vegan bakery offers over 40 toppings and frostings, so you can build the cinnamon roll of your dreams. Even if you don’t typically go for dairy-free options, you won’t miss a thing. Everything is rich, gooey, and made to order.
This place isn’t technically a café, but it’s a Germantown landmark that deserves a mention. Go for the family-style Southern breakfast—fried chicken, biscuits, and cornbread, passed around long tables. You’ll leave stuffed and maybe a little nostalgic. It’s ideal when you want brunch with a side of tradition.
