The 12 best bakeries in Concord

Nice bakery I would describe it as. They had some bread and small things on the counters. Then mainly desserts like macaroons, little pies and tarts things like that. Overall though great atmosphere and good desserts!

We had a short visit to NC (Concord/Charlotte area). A quick drop in to, Chocolatier Barrucand while walking around downtown Concord. My daughter in law got a S'mores macaron and I got a caramelized croissant. Friendly staff.

Adorable shop! Smells amazing as soon as you walk in. Very friendly staff. Jessica was super helpful answering our questions and making suggestions. The treats we selected were absolutely delicious and we can’t wait to go back and try more! Highly recommend stopping by and visiting one of the cutest shops in downtown Concord!

Outstanding macarons and delicious cakes. Charming chocolatier in downtown Concord offering wine, gateaux, chocolate, and bread. Good service, though when checking out, like most businesses these days that, they requested a tip. Maybe if it were delivered, or a sit-down service, but it wasn’t…

We needed a very special cake for my mother in laws 90th birthday. Usually you get a cake that may taste good but not be decorated nice or vice versa. They outdid our expectations on both. I highly recommend ordering from them. You won't be sorry.

I've seen this bakery several times as we drove thru downtown. Today, we decided to try it. The desserts were great! Tried the Opera cake for the 1st time. It was delicious. Got a couple of very yummy cheese cakes! I love it when everything is placed in a box like a little treat😋

Just love these guys are a short walk away. Everything is always way better than I imagine ❤️

First time here and the donuts were very tasty. Fluffy, big, and not dry. Placed order online and pickup was easy. Also ordered Thai Tea and it was pretty good! Definitely recommend stopping by if your in the area. I did order early in the morning, so no problem with selections. My husband has been looking for a strawberry shortcake donut with filling and he was not disappointed.

Wow!!! Just Wow!! If you love doughnuts then this place is for you!! Their doughnuts are Soft & pillowy! My fav doughnut of all time is an old School Powdered Lemon filled doughnut…this place literally pumps doughnuts full of a variety of fillings that you can choose from…lemon being one of the choices!! I’m a fan!!

I stopped by on my way back to Atlanta, and I'm soooooooo glad I did. I love the fact that I can choose my own filling, because that vanilla buttercream is the TRUTH. And I waited a day to eat the apple fritter, and it still smelled and tasted like they just made it. Literally melted in my mouth. I just wish it had more apples! I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.

Love these Donuts! My go to place to pick some up before going to work or on a weekend getting some for my Family! Recently had a Red Velvet topped one that was DELICIOUS!! Many different options for any donut lover! Definitely check either of their locations out.

OMG these donuts were good. We try locally owned donut stores wherever we go. These donuts did not disappoint. They have yeast donuts so don't expect cake donuts here. They have a filling station so some of the donuts can be filled with your favorite fillings. Apple fritter was wonderful. The strawberry shortcake was amazing too.

Great little donut shop in Concord by the Great Wolf Lodge. They have an awesome selection ranging from traditional to unique (fruity pebbles on a donut…what!?!?). My son loves the strawberry with sprinkles. My wife loves the chocolate iced. They even allow you to choose your own filling. Great place and reasonably priced.

Easy 5 stars: Pro: - amazing donuts (best I glazed I have had in years) - great coffee (good to go cups) - fast, clean, efficient Nothing bad to say!

They should lose New York in the name this is nothing like a NY bakery. Don't get me wrong, they are a decent little place. They have ok cakes & pastries. The bread is nothing like bread in a NY bakery.

Found this amazing bakery on Monday and decided to come back every morning since for my husband's "birthday treat week". Every item fresh, made from scratch, I can taste the love and the passion that goes into everything they bake!! Today is the grand finale of "birthday, treat week" and it did not disappoint!! Thank you for helping me to celebrate my husband's birthday with quality 🫶🏽

Best Bagels Outside of New York! 🥯❤️ This bakery has completely stolen my heart! Their New York-style bagels are everything — perfectly chewy, golden on the outside, and packed with flavor. Every bite tastes like home. You can tell they care about quality and tradition. I’m officially obsessed! I also love there other sweets! But the bagels keep bringing me back! And the customer service is amazing!

From the first time I walked into this bakery I was super excited because it reminded me of a bakery back home in Jersey. I have taken home a number of items from here and everything has been hands down excellent, fresh,,and making me want to go back for more. It started out for me with the crumb cake ( more crumb than cake) just like it should be!!! The muffins are most definitely the best I have ever had. And then being able to take home a fresh in house made bagel to make my pork roll and cheese on is the absolute best!!! If you haven’t tried any of these excellent items it has to be on your to do list!!!!!

Dough Bakery is one of my favorite places in Concord. The pumpernickel bagel is a personal go-to, but honestly, everything I’ve tried has been great. The owners are kind and welcoming, and it’s always a pleasant experience. Definitely worth a visit.

I ordered a gender reveal cake from here. My doctor messed up some scheduling so I didn't get my gender to them in the time I was expecting. They were very polite and professional about the situation and I got my cake beautifully done and in great time. Plus, it was delicious 😋

Today, we walked into an establishment that was completely darkened. I bought a chocolate chip cookie that didn't taste fresh.

The Cinnabon store no longer exists. Auntie Anne’s store sales them. Also, the store open time says 10am, it’s 10:30am and they are still closed. Mall security said they are supposed to be open but sometimes they don’t. Do not make a trip here expecting to get a cinnamon roll.

Gross just watched one of the workers fluff her bangs out and lay her germ filled phone down on and over the counter where they roll out the dough. She then pulled gloves out of the box ready to work. 🤢🤮 I had made a special trip to get some cinnabon but it turned into a big nope for me!

Northlake mall aunt annie/Cinnabon not doing Cinnabon any justice when you dont have any bons ready and they might be ready in an hour, made a special trip to get them, this is the reason places is going out of business. oops went away for an hour and revisted, the Cinnabon that was ready had to be boxed in 4's for 21.99 or 6 for 30? I won't be visiting any Cinnabon again, I'll take my business else where.

I drove all the way from work to Cinnabon N. Lake to be told I have to buy the cinnabon in the box if I want (6)which were made yesterday. I was told I could not buy the ones made today and I could go home and heat the ones in the up. So unprofessional. Cinnabon missed a $14.06 sell because I wanted fresh cinnabons. Never again.....

This has to be the worst location. Every time I come here it is a mess my order is wrong or I’m standing there 15 mins with no service. I even called and they allowed the phone to ring and not answer it. The customer service is the worst. I won’t be returning.

Very quick service EVERYTHING was hot and fresh crew was very polite keep up the good work

Literally the worst service I’ve had in a long time. Young immature uncaring staff.

I’m not sure what the issue was, but I ordered the new Oreo topped nuggets and was told there would be a 15 min wait. I didn’t receive them until almost an hour later, and was not updated during my wait. I didn’t even realize that much time had passed and was irritated that I waited that long instead of just requesting a refund. No complaints on the nuggets, but it’s up to you whether or not you want to deal with the actual service at this location.

Our family went to 2 different locations in Concord Mills, and both experiences were unfriendly and didn't really deliver what we wanted. The first ran out of regular pretzels and after I purchased the bites, then they proceed to tell me I could have waited five minutes for a regular pretzel. Then my grandmother went to a different location in the mall and they burnt her pretzel dogs, and acted like it was an inconvenience to make them. Everyone is miserable working it seems.

I went today to buy a mini dog with my wife and the person in the register give us a cup with some of them burn it, so my wife ask me in Spanish to tell her to get a different one and the women get offended and with a bad actitud says “you have to talk to me in English because I speak English” and my wife don’t even speak to her and she start acting aggressive and complaining with the other employees, I like the place but no the way she treats people. Didn’t tell me name but is a black lady.

I agree with the person who posted a review on February 10, 2025 around 1pm! I was there around 6pm and the cashier was rude, had a bad attitude, disrespectful and very unprofessional! First the pretzel was burned at the bottom, asked for another, she was rude and short. Another was made and that one was raw in the center. I also advised her that the lemonade had no lemon flavor. I asked for a refund and took my tip back because of her attitude and she said "that's fine", with an attitude. I paid with cash, but she only refunded me for the cost of the pretzel. Will NEVER patronize that location again. I suggest hiring individuals who have good customer service and respect not only for people, but for their elders. Not what I have been used to with this establishment, both quality and customer service. You used to use fresh lemons and soft, fresh delicious pretzels...I was so disappointed!

I ordered from auntie Anne’s today around 1 o’clock and the door dasher said that they didn’t have the watermelon frozen drink I ordered and that I would have to order something else the dasher was “new” and said I took to long to answer (3 min.) and they said they left after I didn’t answer for 3 min. I ended up getting just my pretzel bites and a cream cheese and still haven’t gotten a refund for the $4.79 drink I ordered.

If I could give zero stars I would. Pretzels taste old as if reheated… area was super dirty & on top of that customer service was horrible she was really rude to me and my kids I dont know how this store is still open and running.

I bought a cup of nuggets with no salt half of the cup was burned. I notified the manager and he said just throw it away, but didn’t compensate…

Edit: Months later upgrading this restaurant to a 3 (review). ... Really 3.5. Went in, and bought a couple things and it was much better. /// Manager here needs to be fired, and replaced, asap. The other morning I ordered like an egg and ham sandwich, bagel balls (with the cream cheese in them), and a blueberry donut. The donut was the only 1/2 way decent thing. And the two LADIES, in there had severe case of RBF. - One was a shorter, more I'm gonna say sturdily built lady, the other was tall and slender with curly hair {She was the worst, like her face just said "Gosh I hate everything."} ... It appeared the store was at least one person short. .. Yeah my caramel iced coffee was just OFF, my bagel balls were disgusting - The tops were HARD, the cream cheese didn't fill the middle, like it's supposed to ... and the cream cheese itself was awful - They were heinous, and inedible. (Pic - After one bite, which I had to spit out) ... Their coffee drink maker was super ABRASIVE and loud, the staff couldn't even hear customers, when they were saying something, when the thing was running .. I had to repeat my order; loudly. And the question is why do these two women both have have the 'Face of Death'? - In my experience that's management. ... Get a new manager. Because I was in town, for some business - and the place made the opposite of a good impression. Wish I had hit up the Firehouse Subs, next door, for something instead.

I am angry about the food serving sizes and how they lie. This is the photo advertised, and on the drive through sign, and this is what I was handed after paying $5 for it! Thats genuinely insulting. To advertise a full cup and not even fill it HALF WAY. And I was told that was the serving size, after I asked what the heck? That's straight up scamming people.

What a disgusting place went there at 6:40 and ordered two hot coffees, two small hot chocolates and a matcha. The chocolate was barely warm, tasted as if it was made with spoiled milk and did NOT taste like chocolate at all. The “hot” coffees were iced and the matcha was disgusting. Then when I get to the window they said it was free. I thought how nice and thanked them. Now I know why it was free smh

Ordered on DoorDash and the order was complete meaning ready for pick up at 8:49. The dasher explained once he got here that a woman only handed him our drinks and not our food. I called Dunkin’ Donuts to find out where our food was and a nice young man answered the phone and he was trying to get a woman on the phone to talk to me I can only assume it was the manager and I heard her deny my phone call with a very nasty tone. Our dasher headed back to get our food and he said this same woman was also rude to him. He delivered our food, it was cold and I ordered a bucket of the munchkins and didn’t receive the bucket. I don’t know if she was having a bad day or what but you don’t treat people like that ESPECIALLY in customer service. If you don’t like people don’t be in a job where you have to deal with them. This location has lost our business forever and that might not seem like a big deal but you never know who you’re serving, Social media is big these days, all it takes is one person who has a big following on TikTok to shut a place down.

Went by there around 5:30pm today (9/29/25). The employees were incredibly rude, lazy, and incompetent. They tried to look busy to avoid helping customers that were waiting. One of them even called a customer stupid. Hate that I wasted my money there. I will not be going back.

My drinks are missing creamer, sugar or a tea bag on many occasions. It never fails! The employees seem to change all the time except for one.

I came 4 days ago and when i tell you isaiah on night shift his customer service was A+ he made sure i was well taken care of . If i was manager there i would give me a raise

We ordered 2 Cookie Monster Rolls and 1 Tropical Bliss Roll. When my husband picked up the order, the bag was stapled and he unfortunately did not check. Once he arrived home we discovered there was one missing. I called the store to inform them and the lady who answered the phone stated “my coworker remembers making and bagging your order, maybe the DoorDash driver took it”. This wasn’t a door dash driver, it was our personal order that my husband picked up 😩. We also onIy received 2 forks/knives for our order of 3. I asked for a refund and honestly is unclear if they refunded as I could hear someone yelling at the girl on the phone. Sounds like there is new management and this place is no longer the same.

We ordered 5 cinnamon rolls through door dash. What showed up is shameful especially based on the price. We will not be back. One was soup and the most expensive banana dessert had a tiny portion.

As a first time consumer, this was an disappointment. The Cinnabun was under cooked, it was doughy and cold. I ate most of it because I wasn’t wasting $6. The chocolate cookie was good. Not sure if I will return. I appreciate the vegan option.

Good evening my google fam. Here is a franchise that was on Shark Tank years ago. Their custom cinnamon rolls are hot fresh and delicious. I got the cookie dough or Cookie Monster one. They also sell banana bread, cookies, cookie dough and brownies. Good restaurant but it is too much sugar for me.

The cinnamon roll was amazing, but service was poor. We came in on a Saturday morning, 30 min post the opening time. The employee was on her cell phone, although we were greeted she continued on her call. At one point she put the phone in her head wrap to hold the phone to her ear while working on our order. There were only 3 cinnamon rolls and a few display rolls already prepared but no baby buns or anything. We asked for a bottle of water and iced coffee with our 2 cinnamon rolls and was told they didn't have any beverages. The staff member working that day never once ended her call.

We had the caramel apple pie cinnamon bun and the German chocolate stack which were FABULOUS! I would easily suggest going here if you want a delicious treat! Best part is it's all vegan but there is no way someone would even be able to tell it was vegan! They also have really good coffee, and have cookie cakes and a cinnamon roll cake too! They also have the Dole whip! There really is something here for everyone!

I first noticed this establishment during its construction, and couldn't wait to check them out. I was not disappointed! It is difficult to find good eateries for vegetarians and vegans, and as I have members of my family on a restricted diet, this opening couldn't be better for us. They're also very conveniently located, near University City, within Highland Creek, and a stone's throw from Concord Mills Mall. I brought my family here to order their specialty cinnamon rolls, we had their Campfire Marshmallow Rolls, Apple Cinnamon, and the Strawberry(?) Roll. We also ordered their brownies and cinnamon sticks. Each was delicious, unique, with bakery quality taste and flavors. While I myself am not vegan, the chef mastered the difficult task of creating rich flavors using all vegan ingredients. Her cream cheese dip for the cinnamon sticks is close to regular cream cheese, but much lighter on the pallet. Upon my next visit, I'll certainly try their Maple Pecan Roll. Whether you're vegetarian or not, this is an awesome, guilt free bakery, with a good range of offerings for any occasion.

Flavors delicious, but the times I have bought from here some ingredient is always missing or is raw. Such a disappointment to see something you want and not get it right. Below is missing ingredient and is not goey butter cake but RAW buttercake.

Ive been to sev c.c & this by far was the worst no greeting when we asked a ? They was clueless & the minis was broken some cookies were hard & compared to other stores these were bite sz cookies & the bigger ones are not as big as displays besides that if theyre fresh theyre amazing

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the extraordinary pleasure of indulging in Benson Boone's Moon Beam Ice Cream Crumbl Cookie, and let me tell you, this cookie is like a cosmic journey wrapped in a deliciously soft embrace! First off, the cookie itself is so soft that it practically melts in your hand—much like my willpower when I see a box of Crumbl. The flavor? Imagine a scoop of moonlit ice cream colliding with a cookie in a flavor explosion that’s more dramatic than a soap opera cliffhanger. It’s like the cookie decided to throw a party, and all the flavors RSVP’d with confetti and fireworks! The texture is both chewy and crumbly (as the name suggests)—each bite feels like a hug from a marshmallow on a cloud. And the ice cream bits? Pure magic! They’re like little orbs of joy that make you question your life choices. “Why didn’t I try this sooner?” you’ll wonder as you devour the cookie, one cosmic bite at a time. If you’re looking for a cookie that’s out of this world (and possibly made with actual moon beams), look no further! This cookie is the perfect excuse to abandon all your healthy eating resolutions while simultaneously feeling like a celestial being. I’d give it six stars if I could! 🌙✨🍪

The staff at this location are always friendly and willing to ask any questions you may have about the cookie flavors. I’m not a big fan of crumbl. My kids enjoy it and if this makes them happy and we get to an experience together as a family then it’s well worth it. Don’t get me wrong I’ve had some good cakes, especially the biscoff cakes. In all honesty the cakes to me are better than the cookies. If the keep making them I’ll be a loyal customer.

My first time here. I have heard so much about this place. Even walking out the store a customer told me they had the best cookies ever. I love they have an option to self order or order at the register. I used the self order so I could take my time deciding what I wanted. They had several cookies to choose from and the one I tried first was the peanut butter brownie. It was pretty good. It got a little rich for my taste buds with the peanut butter in the middle but it was good. The cookies are huge. I honestly only needed two one for me and one for my two young daughters who were able to split one. They loved the icing on the cookies and cream. The customer service was awesome. The place was also pretty busy. It is definitely a popular spot in the area.

I love their cookies fresh and variety flavours

I’m not sure what’s going on with the cookies here, but they’re always hard and stale. They consistently taste like they’ve been sitting out for days. Super disappointing, especially if you’re expecting something fresh and soft. Other locations are not like this.
