Carol’s Pastry Shop

Old-school in all the right ways, Carol’s Pastry Shop in SugarHouse has been around for decades and is still slinging some of the best eclairs and cookies in town. It’s small, local, and full of charm. The macaroon brownies are indulgent, and the mini eclairs are shockingly affordable for how good they are.

Carlucci's Bakery

Italian influence shines at Carlucci’s. The almond croissants are flaky and flavorful, the breakfast sandwiches are generous, and their baked tofu sandwich is surprisingly memorable. Expect a wait during peak hours, but it’s worth every second.

Fillings & Emulsions

A Cuban-inspired bakery that also happens to be gluten-free friendly. The guava pastries and passion fruit cake are incredible, and the Opera cake (yes, coffee meets cake) is a must-try. This is one of those places where everything looks so pretty you’ll want to buy one of each.
