The 31 best bakeries in Bradenton

My 1st time here, highly recommended by my son. I ordered the cold brew honey cinnamon cold foam coffee- it was amazing. And I ordered the yogurt with homemade granola, blueberries, & bananas. I will be returning tomorrow morning for the same 2 items. The truffle chocolates looked amazing. Remember- they close at 2:00 pm so get there before them. You will want to enjoy what they have to offer. I also bought home made dog biscuits. Stella loves them. And a bag of coffee beans for my son

Prepare Your Taste Buds for Paradise! From the moment our family of eighteen vacationers stepped into the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe, we knew we had stumbled upon something truly special. What followed was an experience so delightful, we simply had to return the very next day! This isn't just a cafe; it's a haven of incredible flavors, heartwarming hospitality, and a genuine commitment to the community. Let's start with the star of the show: the Cheesecakes. Calling them "outstanding" feels like an understatement. Each slice is a creamy, dreamy masterpiece, boasting a perfect balance of rich flavor and delicate texture. From classic favorites to innovative and exciting creations, there's a cheesecake to tantalize every palate. Our large group sampled a wide variety, and every single one was met with enthusiastic praise. But don't let the name fool you – the Sandwiches here are nothing short of unbelievable! Packed with fresh, high-quality ingredients and crafted with care, these aren't your average breakfast & lunchtime bites. They are substantial, flavorful, and leave you completely satisfied. Whether you're craving a classic deli creation or something a little more adventurous, the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe has you covered. And for those with a sweet tooth beyond cheesecake, prepare to be delighted by their array of other sweet treats. Each one is a testament to their dedication to quality and deliciousness. Now, let's talk about the fuel that powers this delightful establishment: the Coffee. It's simply phenomenal. As a dedicated coffee lover, I can wholeheartedly recommend their special house cold brew. It's smooth, rich, and the perfect pick-me-up any time of day. You cannot leave without a "Cheesecake Latte", a house special! Beyond the exceptional food and drinks, what truly sets the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe apart are the owners. They are, without a doubt, the most wonderful people you could hope to meet. Their warmth and genuine care for their customers create an inviting and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like part of their family. They clearly pour their hearts and souls into their cafe, and it shines through in every aspect of the experience. As vacationers, we were particularly touched to learn about their donations of leftover food, dishwashing and laundry, and sundry items to local families. This commitment to their community is truly admirable and speaks volumes about their character. It's heartwarming to support a business that not only provides incredible food but also gives back in such a meaningful way. The fact that our family of eighteen, with varying tastes and preferences, enjoyed our experience so much that we returned the next morning for breakfast speaks for itself. Their breakfast offerings were just as impressive, setting us up perfectly for another day of our vacation. Finally, for anyone with dietary restrictions, I must give a special shout-out to their HIGHLY RECOMMENDED CELIAC / GLUTEN FREE ITEMS! It can be a challenge to find delicious and safe gluten-free options, but the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe has truly excelled in this area. Our gluten-free family members were thrilled with the variety and quality of the choices available. In conclusion, the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe is more than just a place to eat; it's an experience. From the outstanding cheesecakes and unbelievable sandwiches to the phenomenal coffee and the heartwarming hospitality of the owners, every aspect is top-notch. If you find yourself in the area (and even if you don't!), make the trip. You won't be disappointed. This gem of a cafe is a must-visit, and these "Cheeseheads" from Wisconsin can't wait for our next opportunity to return!

Cute little cafe with a limited menu, but the cheesecake bites are definitely the highlight, rich, creamy, and beautifully presented. The overall experience was decent, though nothing extraordinary. If you’re in the area and craving a sweet treat, it’s worth a quick stop.

Husband and I stopped in for breakfast during our AMI stay on 7/8/25. It is super convenient for anyone staying close by - we were able to walk to it in under 10 minutes. I don’t do fancy coffees, but they had a lot to offer. I just went with an iced coffee with SF caramel. It was delicious and picture perfect. My husband had the “Best Bacon Sandwich”. He didn’t love it (personal preference - just not a fan of bacon jam), but it was good! The portion size was huge. I tried it and thoroughly enjoyed it. We also got a plain cheesecake…very good as well. Took half home and enjoyed later. Ended up going back again on 7/9.

We had a really nice lunch here today away from the hustle and bustle of the beaches. I had their Chicken with Hot Sauce and creamy Coleslaw sandwich and my husband had their BLT, both were huge and delicious. Definitely worth a trip here for a classic sandwich but I hear their breakfast sandwiches are also very good. They are known for their beautiful little individual Cheesecakes, that's for our next vist.

Absolutely delicious gourmet sandwiches (such as the “Cool As A Cucumber” sandwich-amazing! or the Cordon "Ramsey" Blu). My 11 year old daughter said the cucumber sandwich was the best sandwich she has ever had. I agree. We could eat here everyday. Do not miss the chocolate covered “cheesecake truffles", the buckeye and cookie dough were our favorite! And the pumpkin and key lime cutie cheesecakes are outstanding as well. The owner knows her stuff and has a gift.

Just got the small cheesecakes today for the first time ever while visiting Anna Maria and omg they are so good! Got the toasted coconut and the lemon blueberry. Nice thick cheesecake and love the small size options they have. Hope I can stop in one more time before I head back to dreary Ohio

Food was okay at best, but pretty pricey for what I ordered. I got eggs benedict for $14 and it was fine. Our waiter served us the food but there were no utensils served so we had to get the cheap plastic ones they had. The eggs were pretty runny and the sausage was the cheap kind you’d get in school and overall I wouldn’t purchase this again. We also had to get up for our drinks so better service would’ve been nice. There’s better places on the island that I’d recommend over this one.

This place is awesome! Great food and the most delicious frappaccino ever! Go early if you want their Cinnamon rolls they go quick! Fun gift shop with lots of items from local artists. I would definitely recommend this place it was great in every way!

We’re staying at Anna Maria Beach Resort for the week and have been biking around to different spots. We stopped at Ginny’s & Jane E’s Café because she really wanted to try the Chicken Caesar wrap and I was in the mood for a BLT. Her wrap was excellent and even the chips were great. My BLT honestly surprised me, it wasn’t what I was expecting, it was better. The bun and the amount of bacon really sealed the deal. Also, the ranch here is fire. We’re from Pittsburgh, so we’ve had our fair share of ranch, and this was some of the freshest, lightest, and best-tasting ranch I’ve had. 100% recommend. The décor is also super fun. The mismatched tables and chairs give it so much character. Probably the cutest place we’ve visited so far.

My husband and I along with our 3 children visited this hidden treasure several times for breakfast while we vacationed on Anna Maria Island. It is a lot bigger inside than it seems from the outside. The Creme Brulee French Toast was by far my favorite dish, and the coffee had such great flavor! I love that they have a full kitchen, and the food is made fresh. My children loved the muffins, cookies, muffin tops and cinnamon rolls which all are generously large and look homemade. My husband also had their large breakfast platters and loved their hashbrown casserole which was the perfect cheesieness. The waffle breakfast sandwich was extremely large with 2 eggs in it, a generous serving of bacon and cheese. We highly recommend this be one of your first breakfast stops. It's busier on the weekends, but not as crowded on weekdays. The atmosphere is homey and inviting.

This is a must of you are visiting Anna Maria Island. We were out of season on a Thursday morning but it was still so busy! Short queue and a little wait for food but so worth it. The staff were working so hard. Very unique.

I always visit this place when I come back home to visit family in Bradenton, FL. The food is always good- I always get several sweet rolls and sticky buns to take home for me. They are huge and a decent price. They are made fresh every day, and you have to get there before 9 am, to make sure you get them, as they start to get busy and can sell out. They are only open until 3 pm. They are a great place to have breakfast or brunch. They also have fresh organic ingredients and not processed foods. Healthy options. They also have a gift shop, which is neat to look around while you wait for food, or after eating. The gift shop has a lot of neat items, and also displays things local artists made which is a great thing to do. I will always visit Ginny and Jane E's.!! Love this place!!

Such a cute and fun little place. Great food. Gets very busy. You walk up and place your order, get a number, self serve drinks, and go wait for food at a table. Cinnamon roll and crème brûlée French toast (in pics) are wonderful. Very quick walk to the beach from here and offers both free and paid parking right near it.

Cindy was so kind and accommodating to my custom cake request for a friend’s 30th birthday celebration. She decorated it beautifully for our party theme while not compromising flavor and quality. Very happy with the customer service and product! Thank you!

Cindy is amazing! She made a beautiful and delicious wedding cake for my daughter’s wedding! She also made adorable and delicious cookies for their welcome party! She’s always so easy to work with. We can’t thank her enough for creating exactly what was envisioned. 💗

Hometown Desserts on Anna Maria Island created my birthday cake, which was exceptionally delectable. We also ordered blueberry scones, fig walnut scones, ham quiche, and bacon quiche. Everything was freshly baked and full of flavor. These were the best desserts l've had in a long time.

Cindy from Hometown Desserts made our beautiful wedding cake. It matched our beach theme just perfect and the taste was amazing. The top layer was vanilla and the bottom was red velvet with butter cream icing. We also included a small dessert assortment for the kids and they absolutely loved them. I’m so pleased with how the cake turned out. We will definitely return as a customer when visiting again on the island.

We loved our turtle themed strawberry cake! We’ll definitely order from Hometown Desserts the next time we’re in AMI!

Visiting AMI for my birthday so I reached out to Cindy through email to help make a custom cake and WOW! It turned out exactly like I asked for (I provided some detail and pictures of previous cakes she’s made) and tasted spectacular! Her response time was fast and she did an amazing job. We also had gotten some of her muffins from the General Store on the island and they were DELICIOUS! We got a red velvet, blueberry, and a cinnamon and each one was amazing. Would absolutely recommend Hometown Desserts!

Loved our wedding cake! Cindy made the process fun and easy. We went in for a tasting, chose flavors we liked, and explained the size and style of the wedding. It was the perfect amount of desserts, and everyone commented on how delicious it was. Prices were very fair as well! Would definitely recommend.

Found this bakery online. I live in North Carolina and I needed to order a cake for my moms birthday I Called up and had the kindest people help me figure out exactly what I wanted. A white cake with a light cream icing and fresh fruit. When I picked the cake up it was just beautiful and it's looks were only outmatched by its taste. Everyone at her party just loved it and it was the finest cake eaten in years. Give this place a try and I promise you won't be disappointed. Between the staff and cake we highly recommend this wonderful bakery!

My husband and I came in this afternoon after searching for a local coffee shop. We both had iced caramel lattes, a caramel wind, tuna and egg salad on sourdough. Service was wonderful the atmosphere was very comfortable and cozy feels like a family spot. Our food and drinks were so perfectly crafted. Very delicious we will be back for more!

We came later in the day, met the friendly gentlemen I think he was the owner, he made me the best coffee, someone else referred the cappuccino, it was the best they've ever had so that will be my next purchase when I visit.

Great place to go! I ordered the veggie quiche and hibiscus tea, it was fresh and delicious! Everything is made in house and with fresh ingredients! Super helpful and friendly staff!! 10/10 recommend!

Super Friendly Service & Coffee and Pastries were great. The Spinach Feta Croissant was amazing! The shopping center from the outsize is pretty plain but once we walked inside it’s very cozy but also clean and modern. Was a nice surprise to find here in Bradenton. Will definitely come back.

Really lovely little space, nestled out of the way of the bustle in Bradenton. Professional baker on hand who makes incredible treats and breads. Theres ample seating, very comfortable area and very cleaning. And of course I tried their raspberry chocolate cake and a cappuccino and it was lovely. They have all the works for fancy coffees and standard ones. Brand new small business please support them!

YUMMMMM!!! Hands down to the best donut shop ever! Drove 90 min to come check out the hype..well worth it!! The maple bacon ...hot off the press=AMAZING!! Great prices too!!

Such a special spot! 💕 As locals to the area, we get the chance to frequent here often. My boyfriend always convinces me to drive to the tip of the island to see the sunrise because he throws in that we will be stopping here for donuts and coffee. Immediate YES. Their house blend iced coffee is to die for. You can’t go wrong with their donuts, just create whatever you like. Service is good and quick, place is clean, make it a must stop.

Easily the best donuts we’ve ever had! Super fresh and delicious and a great spot. And they were so affordable that I initially thought we had been mistakenly undercharged!

Love the customization options. All the employees are very friendly, I loved the soft warm donuts. Only thing I wish was they had blueberry, chocolate and different flavors of donuts, but the toppings are delicious

This is a small shop and the parking area is also quite small; however, the line and ordering process moves quickly and in the end you get your chosen, fresh, warm donuts! Absolutely delicious!!!

They had lots of flavors to choose from or you could create your own. I had the key lime and it was really good. They are cake donuts.

When you enter, you will fill out a paper form picking out what kind of donuts you want. They have a big selection, with many options. You can watch as they make your donuts. You can also order online and pick it up in store. The donuts are very fresh and delicious!

Phenomenal ice cream and excellent service! All of the employees were accommodating and friendly. We travel a lot and always love going to small town places to try their homemade ice creams. This is by far my favorite that I’ve ever had! It took a while to decide on a flavor. I nearly had to try them all. Each flavor I sampled was more delicious than the next! I finally decided on the brownie batter and peanut butter trash can. Also pictured is the blueberry cobbler.

Holy Cow is hands down one of the best ice cream spots I’ve ever been to! The flavors are absolutely delicious and creative, but what really sets this place apart is the staff. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, and genuinely happy to help you find the perfect scoop. They make you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. You can tell they love what they do, and it makes the whole experience that much sweeter. Highly recommend stopping by—you won’t be disappointed!

Extremely friendly, family-oriented ice cream joint! We thoroughly enjoyed the attention, the laughs, and the great service that we received. Hand-dipped ice cream, with plenty of options for everyone. They have some off the wall options as well. Great treat for after dinner, or after a full day at the beach, or maybe just on a rainy day like we did.

We stopped there and got each a couple scoops of their ice cream, it was some of the best I’ve ever had, so creamy and so delicious. I did not actually go into the store. I was sitting in the car my sister who was a tourist from out of town, went in and got ice cream and brought it out, I had the mint chip, and the chocolate chunks were huge and delicious. The ice cream was so creamy it was unreal, five stars all the way around. Great ice cream.

Fantastic ice cream! Stopped by quickly while at the beach and was pleasantly surprised by the high quality. The blueberry cobbler is one of the best flavors I’ve ever had!! Tasted very fresh, loved the extra texture of the graham crackers.

A Hidden Gem for Ice Cream Lovers! 🍦 If you're looking for a charming, local ice cream shop that hits all the right notes, look no further than this mom-and-pop treasure. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted like family—friendly smiles, warm hellos, and genuine enthusiasm for sharing their passion for ice cream. What really sets this place apart is the variety. We're not just talking your standard vanilla and chocolate (though those are excellent too!)—we're talking rows of unique, handcrafted flavors that rotate regularly. From classics like Cookies and Cream and Mint Chip to creative hits like Honey Lavender, Maple Bacon, or Vegan Blueberry Basil, there's something here for every palate. The staff clearly love what they do, and it shows. They're always happy to offer samples, make recommendations, or even tell you the story behind a flavor.

Support local and treat yourself—you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ --- Want me to tailor it for a specific name or location?

Made a quick stop after dinner and the ice cream was delicious. The raspberry dole whip was amazing, ice cream sundaes delicious, and the double vanilla milkshake was out of this world. The owners were entertaining and fun to talk with. Wish we lived here full time!

Stopped in for a shake after a great day at the beach! I had a medium chocolate shake and my wife had a medium strawberry shake. They were very good! So thick and creamy! Friendly service! Clean out door eating area. Clean restrooms. Highly recommended!

Diana rung me up for 2 items swiftly and with a kind smile to boot. Shake Pit has been around since the late 50s and is still kicking. Clearly a popular spot for visitors and locals alike as I ran across people from all different kinds of states. Now for the food, it was pretty good albeit a tad pricey. It’s nice to have the option to order a milkshake as drinkable and I swiftly drank my Peanut Butter and Chocolate Milkshake (classically delicious). They make them with real ice cream and it shows. The Double Cheeseburger came out with 2 fresh tomatoes, lettuce and ketchup. Just a juicy and delectable burger, not one complaint. If you’re craving a feel-good burger to pair with a shake in the shade, Shake Pit’s the spot to be. You can get more food for $15-$20 at other spots, but you can’t replace a positive atmosphere! 😁

Small restaurant that has been a staple of this town for years. They tend to be busy which may cause a little wait for your food. My partner and I love to split their oinkinhoovencluckin burger ( if I got that right) ultimately you get it all on a burger and you dont be disappointed. Pair it with one of their amazing shakes. Mostly outdoor seating, they have a patio type area but it stays pretty warm in it. Small diner counter inside.

That place offers not only great ice cream, but also some of the best burgers and fries around here! My boyfriend and I loved it so much that we came here 4 times in just six days while we stayed in Sarasota! We will definitely come back, highly recommended. PS: And the staff and service are also very nice.

After years of crushing Peanut-butter Chocolate malts, I recon it’s time we leave a review. As much as I’d like to sling 5 stars their way, I can’t do it. The first three items my wife ordered were each met with a prompt and harsh “can’t make that”. No apology, no explanation, just a teen with a seeming bad attitude. Nevertheless, we ended up with items they could make, so that’s a plus. Food and shakes all came out at different times, but they were all pretty good. It’s cash only, so be prepared. All in all, was a good evening.

We needed lunch and ice cream on Easter and thankfully they were open. We were also just visiting the area so it was a shot in the dark. The food was good, the ice cream was amazing! The restaurant had both outside covered area and inside diner style seating. It was clean and kept up. I would definitely recommend. FYI* They are cash only, but do have an ATM outside by the tables. If you want to avoid the$3.50 ATM fee bring cash but it was thoughtful to have an ATM conveniently located.

Paid $25 for a shake and a banana split.. don't get me wrong both were good but I feel like we overpaid

The staff here is awesome! The ice cream is delicious! We went back multiple times during our visit in Bradenton. I loved the Caribbean kick with pecans!

This food was insanely good! Homemade, fresh ingredients and we didn't feel overfull or bloated after the meal. Portion size was perfect and the custard was top notch! The only thing to note about this restaurant is that they are cash or physical card. No tap feature, apple pay, google pay, venmo etc. A bit dated in the payment method so make sure you have your funds in hand.

Flavor galore!!! From the signature chicken salad to the New Orleans Muffuletta, and the broccoli salad, their is no way to pick a favorite... Then, a "concrete" of peaches, blueberries and raspberries in a vanilla custard. Couldn't get enough! A must try!!!

I'm visiting Florida with my two kids and one of the main workers there she may have been the owner or a manager came over to see my baby and was so very nice and welcoming and he was eating a peanut butter banana sandwich and she brought him more bananas because I told her how much he loves them 😭💖 I also overheard the same lady talking to other guests about allergies and how she took extra precautions to ensure there would be no allergic reaction

We ordered custard (for there) and food to takeaway. My custard came out immediately but my husbands custard was given to us with the takeaway food, completely melted. They had made the sundae but just held onto it until the food was ready so that it was custard soup by the time we received it. I ordered a veggie wrap which is described on the menu: "Veggie Wrap $12.25 Lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, mushrooms, red onions, black olives, goat cheese and avocado drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette and served grilled in a soft garlic tortilla." I did not open until later at home, which is when I realized there was no goats cheese, avocado, or balsamic vinaigrette. It was just a tortilla with lettuce onion tomato and cucumber in it. If the staff had let me know they were out of goats cheese and avocado I would have ordered something else. Very disappointing.

The custard concretes are exceptional. I had an Hawaiian Concrete with pineapple, coconut and macadamia nut. The sandwiches are also very good. I had a "Jersey Shore" ham and turkey with Swiss cheese and Cole slaw on marbled rye. Exceptional. Delicious. This is a case of unusually good food in a dive. Dirty tables. Non-functioning drinking fountains. But the ice cream and sandwiches are worth the drive. There's an outside order window and I honestly didn't realize that they had an inside with tables.

A bit bummed out to be honest. 30 bucks for a roast beef sandwich and a chicken wrap. The wrap was almost all lettuce and falling apart. The Kansas City roast beef I asked for no onions, came with Onions and so much thousand Island dressing it leaked through the paper, soaked the bread and killed any other flavor. Based on the other reviews that are great maybe it was just a one off. Instead of carry out I should have dined in.

AWESOME ICE CREAM!!! Great options and lots of fun flavors for parents and kids. Brownie sundae was a huuuge hit. Vegan options make ice cream available for everyone. Nice shop, great staff, ample seating. Note - there is no parking for the shop so you may just have to be quick and leave the car at circle k.

Literally obsessed with this shop. I have never been an ice cream person until I found this place. I now CRAVE their butter pecan ice cream and visit weekly. My girls love coming in and seeing Ocean, she is friendly and makes our girls feel special.

The family and I really liked this place. Kids actually gave it 6 stars. My son really liked the waffle cone, because it did not fall apart like the ice cream shop the night before. I wish parking was easier, but what are you going to do. Ice cream was great. All four of us enjoyed all that we ordered. Would definitely go back and recommend.

Lots of choices. Several dairy free options. The dairy free mango sorbet is the best. We had a banana split with mango, orange cream sickle, and key lime cheesecake. Also, we had an ice cream nachos. It is three flavors, waffle chips, whip cream, toppings of choice, and drizzles. Prices are fair. Well worth the visit.

Good ice cream. Friendly staff. However EMPLOYEES WERE NOT WEARING MASKS. I would suggest avoiding this business until after the pandemic. The nice high school aged girls behind the counter were courteous and friendly with our kids. When I asked why they weren't wearing masks one said that Bradenton Beach didn't require them. Although not legally required to wear them by choosing not to this business is putting both employees and customers at risk of infection. This seems like an unwise business decision and frankly unhealthy to be serving food without masks at the height of the pandemic. It makes me question the judgment of the ownership--what other poor decisions could they be making that aren't visible to the public? Can we trust the safety of the food preparation?

Nothing fantastic about this ice creamery. Have a good selection of flavors. Unfortunately they do not do samples. We asked a couple times to be sure. They got a nice inside area now, but no bathrooms. Doesn’t disappoint but not brag-able. It’s nice it’s in a walking distance from some of the beaches. Working are always nice. They do not do dipped cones, however they have fancy waffle cones. I payed $6 for what you see. Still, no bathrooms and samples kinda suck.

This place has great air-conditioning and some indoor seating. It was perfect to stop in, have some ice cream, and cool off from the mid-day sun. Based on other reviews I may have been there on an off day, because the chocolate and bannana flavors had a crystallized texture to them. I don't know if the temp got too cold in their freezer, but it wasn't very good. The coconut was delicious and creamy though. The prices are a little high here, but not outrageous. The menu layout is a little confusing if you haven't been in before. At the entrance to the lineup there was a hand written menu that, on the day I was there, was so full of selections it was difficult to tell which price went to which item. The prices were also not written next to the bowls or cones. Later I saw that, past where the cashier station is, there is a full menu with prices printed out. The person behind the counter helped me out, but it would have been nice if that menu was situated before you make an order.

I absolutely loved our experience here. Friendly service, clean establishment, and delicious sundaes so large I didn't need dinner later. Lots of sundae options, as well as the choice to make up one of your own. I loved their wide variety of hard ice cream flavors, too.

Love the place. Great Ice cream. Great staff. My friend had fallen going up the stairs and the manager was so gracious and got us bandaids and bleach to clean up outside. My concern is the railings. They are not meant for seniors. Please change out the railings. No worries we will be back.

10/10 !!! Miguel made the best peanut butter cup sundae ! Service and ice cream was amazing ! Definitely check this place out if you’re in the area vacationing.

Nothing special. Young girls without much personality scoop icecream and take your money. Heard good things about this place, ice cream was good. That was about it. The location is good for those on the south end of Anna Maria Island. The 2 ice cream shops on the north end of the island were always Very busy with long lines. Holy Cow ice cream shop at least offered up some conversation and actually seemed truly interested in making the visit an experience. Tyler's we felt like we were almost an inconvenience. Just over the bridge on the mainland, and literally around the corner from some well known and well regarded restaurants that are by the bridge.

It was great .after dinner at the Shore ice cream was phenomenal. I think I got chocolate coffee crunch.And he got some kind of weird blue stuff, but it tasted good

The girl serving ice cream tonight seemed as though she would rather be anywhere else. Rolling her eyes and making faces at customers. Felt like we were an inconvenience which seems to be a common occurrence per other reviews. Ice cream was good though.

We had ice cream at 4 different locations on our trip to the AMI area. This was by far the best quality and the best priced. Creamy, loads of flavors, and so fresh. Don't spend $40 for frost-burnt "gelato"; instead come across the bridge to Cortez for $16

Super mad I went through the drive-thru and I specifically asked for extra butter and for my baguette to be toasted I get home my baguette is ice cold and I have no butter I also have no silverware or napkins for my soup and it doesn't seem like there's extra sauce on my sandwich which I also asked for. I have called over five times just now at 3:30 which are not the times that they mentioned on the phone not to call. Very upset, I guess it's Bradenton not Sarasota that's why. But it's pretty upsetting for a Panera bread. Also I have to add that I finally started eating my sandwich the bread isn't toasted how it was I get the same thing like almost every other day the bread isn't even toasted on my chicken Francesca also my mac and cheese is usually creamy and fresh and it's very dry. And also how are you out of broccoli cheddar soup at 2:30? Totally upset.

First, I ordered my bacon and egg on a ciabatta. The young lady told me to drive around to the window. I drive around to the window. I sat at the window at least 2 full minutes now that may not seem like a lot but when you’re sitting there and she’s on the other side of the window, ignoring you two minutes is a long time. So she opens the window I pay $7.70 for what I think is way overpriced. she then says OK thank you here’s your change thinking there’s another window to drive around the corner like most places so I drive around and there’s not. she didn’t say OK you’re hold on, sir. Your food will be right out nothing. So I go inside now and I tell the girl at the front counter I paid for my drive-through and did not know I should’ve waited at the same window. So I’m waiting another two minutes. Finally I spoke to the manager saying hey can you tell me where my food is? They have a terrible system and people that are very unhelpful. Here is what I paid &7.70 for. What do you think? Worth the money???

This is a brand new store that opened up and it is very clean. The staff is nice. I have been in a couple times when in the area and there are many people in the restaurant working in their laptops or eating. It is a bright and sunny restaurant that was very nicely done.

I don't normally do reviews, but my experience was so NEGATIVE that I decided to share it. On Monday afternoon I was in this store ordering sweets and coffee to go. The cashier, Lis, was very rude and discriminated against me. When he finds out that I speak Spanish and English, he asks me in Spanish, using a slow tone, as if I don't understand what she was trying to tell me. In what language do I want the order? I responded that "it doesn't matter".in spanish. So she insists: What language do you feel most comfortable speaking? I answer back, I don't care o No importa., then she said my God, these immigrants. So Lis, let me tell you that I am a proud migrant, I speak 2 languages ​​perfectly and have 2 citizenships. So, I suggest you be more respectful to us The customers. Hopefully your manager can read this and explain to you One More Time, what customer service mean.

So my boyfriend went through the drive through 41.He said, whoever he was speaking to was very rude. Secondly, he ordered me an Italian sandwich with no provolone. Cheese, because I have a severe dairy. Allergy which he said. He brings me the sandwich. I don't need it right away. He leaves, which hmm, is all the way on annemary island. I finally open up my sandwich. It's just steak cheese anne arugula. As you can see on my receipt as the on the picture, it says italiano sandwich with no provolone cheese. Not only did they give me a sandwich that I'm highly allergic to. It's a completely wrong sandwich. So I called and spoke to the manager, danielle, or something like that and all she could offer me was another sandwich and my money back. The thing is, I'm not worried about the money back. That's not the issue me for more.Of the issue is you gave me a sandwich that i'm highly allergic to. Earlier, before going to the cortez store where this whole issue happened, I called panera bread to see what my dairy options were, and it turned out it was the one that was on manatee Avenue and the manager I spoke with her name was Abby. We were on the phone for almost 3-4 minutes talking about all of my options and then I asked her, she's the one on cortez, and she's like, no, and I was like darn. So after I got my sandwich, it was all wrong from Cortez. I just called her back abby, and she also apologized even though it's not the store, I got it from and I told her I should've went to her and then she told me she'd give me a free pick too for the inconvenience. Thanks, abby.This is my second complaint from cortez.I will no longer be going there.

I don’t know about you guys, but when I’m eating my food, I don’t want somebody rigorously sweeping a carpet with a broom near my table. Brooms just put everything into the air and then it lands on your food and you eat it. This really turned me off of my meal. The lady that took my order was mediocre at best for customer service. My meal came out in a quick time and it was very good. The young men in the kitchen did a great job.

slowest and poorest service I have ever witnessed. More than enough staff but not a single one wanted to work. Very sad!

A quaint restaurant with an extremely relaxing environment. The food was fantastic. Decent sized portions for the cost. The coffee tasted like what you can envision from a coffee commercial. The staff were extremely friendly. The only issue was the limited size of parking. Come early and have a fantastic experience. I highly recommend!

Cute little shop and the service was friendly, but we were not a fan of the food. It didn't taste fresh, and there was no fluff to the pancakes, they were extremely dense. The crepe was also very dense, both were hard and dry when trying to cut them. Maybe better for a pastry to go or a coffee.

The seating arrangement indoors is quite cozy, though it can feel a bit close to other costumers. However, the outdoor patio offers a lovely setting to enjoy the sun and a gentle breeze. We thoroughly enjoyed our Croissant Benedict and coconut flan, both of which were delightful. The menu features a wide variety of sweet treats and solid French-style food options.

My girlfriends and I are here on vacation. We couldn’t wait to try the “Award winning” Paris restaurant. Service was very good. However, the food was definitely not worth the $ or our time. Walked all the way here from our hotel for the “hashbrowns” (just like McDonald’s)😠 one of my friends ordered the croissant and it tasted pretty good. Fruit was fresh with a good portion and variety. Pancakes were very dense and tasted like flour. Syrup served was “log cabin”.🤨 Sausage had no flavor at all. We were very disappointed. Will not return.

Good! Lots of drink options for brunch, coffee, alcoholic and otherwise. The croissant breakfast sandwich, crapes and omelets were all tasty. Our waiter was great, can’t remember his name. He mentioned that the waffles and hashbrowns are not homemade, but other dishes are.

It was good food and experience. Service was taking a bit long when didn’t seem to be busy day. Overall good but I had much better in Sarasota location.

We can start with praise for how nice our waitress was and the inside of the little cafe is decorated nice. However unfortunately we did not find the food rather worth it or tasteful. For example I got a very easy chicken sandwich and the chicken was honestly hard to eat. It felt like idk cheap chicken or idk but it was tough and strange for me. I do think if this place invested in higher quality food items and made made there menu a little smaller the concept would soar. But it was little things like the hash browns seem were like frozen patty’s the chicken etc low grade ham etc. The pastry’s were fine nothing special but nothing bad about them. Go see it if you’re interested!

Place was filthy. Looks like nobody cleaned the entire day. Only one very unhappy and unfriendly employee. Tried to order two of their specialty Sundaes and both flavors were out. Same for a specialty milkshake. Who doesn't have chocolate? Do yourself a favor and try one of the other ice cream shops on the island. There are several to choose from.

The orange cream sorbet is a must-try! The flavors are refreshing and perfect for being beachside. This spot is always one of my favorite stops, and I look forward to coming back every time we are in AMI.

This ice cream is horrible. Image how bad ice cream needs to be to be called horrible. The flavors taste like nothing. Like zero flavor. The strawberry ice cream had ZERO strawberries and tasted like menthol… that’s not a joke. My whole family said their ice cream sucked and we got all different flavors. How do you make a coffee ice cream that’s flavorless??????

My family and I walked in after dinner last night. We’re a big group. 14 of us. Just want to shout out the young lady who was handling the shop like a pro by herself. Amber was crushing it and did not let the growing line behind us stress her out. The ice cream was great as well!

I walked in hoping to fulfill my sweet tooth but I was met with a very unhappy face. She was blonde and pretty rude when I tried to order a specialty milkshake, cookies and creme. She said they were out and I was disappointed, why have it on the menu if it wasn’t available. I mean you can’t just take vanilla ice cream and cookie pieces and blend them?? Anyways I decided to get the birthday cake one instead and was also disappointed. I thought it would come with something like sprinkles and maybe whipped cream, but it was literally two little scoops of cake batter ice cream and then milk. SO much milk that it was not even a milkshake at that point :( literally ended up getting something else on the way home.

Ice cream is actually gelato (flavorless and limited) & the service is highly unpleasant! very sad when you have to say, “Hi” to 2 employees whose job is to greet people when we walk into your business! Also, my 2 scoops of ice cream, (in a very small cup) was stacked too high & melted everywhere; had to be thrown away. Really not good for business when the females look as though they don’t want to be there.. I would never recommend this place.

Best ice cream ever!! Great service and great food!❤️❤️❤️ LOVE IT

Super friendly and quick staff. Made sure to tip them well! They keep that store clean and an enjoyable sitting experience. More ice cream than I could eat in one sitting and they were super friendly when I needed a lid and napkins.

A great place for a sweet treat of ice cream or sorbets in which you can have alone, or you can mix in things such as nuts, fruit, cookies, brownies, and such. You can have it in a waffle cone or cup. If you like milkshakes, they can do that too. Service was fast and the staff friendly.

Not as clean as it used to be and mine tasted frost bit. Also, the napkins are super cheap and I couldn’t get enough to clean up. The girls working there were very nice

My first time here with friends. I liked my mangonade ice cream. I didn’t like that my friend asked for butter pecan but it tasted like coffee. She thought it tasted off and asked one of us to taste it to confirm the flavor. We told the staff and the guy said that was butter pecan even though it looked darker that pecan. So she asked for a different flavor and they charged her for it. The guy who charged us felt bad for charging us but I guess he had to. We could hear the staff arguing about it. One of them tasted it and found out it was definitely coffee sitting where the butter pecan was suppose to be and butter pecan sitting where coffee should be. If the guy had tasted when we told him, instead of insisting that it was butter pecan, then it could have been solved correctly. Plus not charging her for someone else’s mistake. Does it make sense to charge someone for another ice cream when the first doesn’t taste right? We only stopped here cause one of our friends suggested it since we all wanted ice cream. If I ever have ice cream from Cold Stone again it will be a different location. I really liked my mangonade. Too bad the first experience was bad.

This Cold Stone location is absolutely the worst. Do NOT go there!!!!! The worker completely messed up my order. She barely mixed the ice cream — all the almonds, Oreos, and gummy bears were just left on the counter while she scooped only plain ice cream on top. Then she threw half of it into the trash and handed me something that looked like it wasn’t mixed at all. Terrible service, zero effort, and complete waste of money.

I got the Love It size with cake batter ice cream and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and my man got the Love It size, two ice cream flavors, which were Butter Pecan and Mint with white chocolate chips. I remember going to Cold Stone Creamery a lot as a kid, and have a lot of fond memories of them and their ice cream. First time I've been to one in 25ish years. Was nice. The one girl looked bored, and the gentleman didn't wear gloves, but had a good experience nonetheless.

Nice and helpful stuff members. Ice cream there is just great. The location is probably not made to stay for a long time, since there are only two tables.

They have a variety of baked goods, fresh produce, meats, spices, and many more. I love their cooked foods, it was delicious and fresh. The cashier in cooked food area was very friendly and helpful. If you are hungry and want authentic Spanish foods, this is the place!

This place has everything — a cozy restaurant, an amazing bakery, a full grocery store, and a top-quality meat department. The food is fresh and flavorful, and you can tell they use the same high-quality ingredients they sell. The baked goods are always fresh and delicious, and the meat counter is stocked with premium cuts. Whether you're dining in or shopping for dinner, this is a one-stop shop worth visiting!

OmG! What a place!! We went for lunch - the food area is kind of hidden in the right rear of the building, but the options are practically endless! Tacos are delicious and so inexpensive! Our son and his wife have always gone and grabbed takeout tacos for all of us. This was our first time visiting - and we WILL go back. Next time however, I’m going early so I can explore what looks to be an AMAZING grocery store! Neat, tidy, and huge! I’m excited to wander and see what’s on their shelves!

The food is always excellent at Acapulco, the place is clean and the staff is very friendly.. Aveiga J. Always takes your order with a smile and makes good suggestions when you’re undecided.

I stopped here to check it out, because there is a hot food counter, and I wanted to check out their produce and spice sections. Everything was very fresh looking and well stocked. The meat counter had lots of good looking food and there were busy staff was cleaning and keeping things looking wonderful. All the food in the hot food case looked good, considering it was almost 3 PM when I arrived. I ordered the chicken salsa Verde, which came with a side of rice, beans (well seasoned & delicious) and a stack of small corn tortillas that were warmed through. The chicken was sublime. It was the best meal I’ve had in a long time, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. I sat inside at the counter, there is a selection of salsa if I wanted it, and the people who served to me were very nice. The store is a gem with lots of Hispanic and chilies and curry for Jamaican food meals. I did not try the bakery next-door, so it sounds like I should check it out as well. This was a real score, for someone who likes to haunt alternative grocery stores and experiences. I’ll be making this my go to place to pick up spices, herbs, fresh salsas, housemade guacamole, fresh salsa, delightful produce options, comals, cookware, whole loofah sponges, and much more. This place has it all

Love Acapulco Mexican store. Great food, great prices, authentic. Although this most recent visit is why I'm rating so low. Went to order at their hot food bar on 8/17/2025 around 5p.m. and Nicole the cashier, I assume was offended when I wanted to give her an extra dollar so I could get a $5 bill in change instead of $4 single ones. She told me she couldn't do it, even though the till was already open, and I told her it was "basic math". Anyways, she put our order at the end of the que. LMAO. I guess people get offended when you ask them to do basic math.

Acapulco Tropical Supermarket is my favorite supermarket to buy all my African food and groceries. I hereby recommend them to all my family and friends in Florida to patronize them. Very clean and friendly staff. The price there groceries is the best .

Nice little shop. Locals love it. Feels like a step in the past. Staff was kind and helpful. I did not care for how they stored their extra chocolates. It is a little pricey.

Took my mother in law who was visiting the area and was our first time there as well. The young lady behind the counter was so nice and helpful with us. Great variety of chocolates for sure! We loved the dark chocolate selection! Such a quaint little place and love that they are made in house. We will be back! Janelle Clarke

We've been here twice and both times were a pleasant experience with service! I wouldn't care if they didn't have good customer service because their chocolate is so dang good! Will be going back soon!

My wife really loves chocolate and I love to make her happy. All made in house and seem fresh

There was such a beautiful assortment of chocolates and I was excited to buy an assortment for a friends going away gift, but when I was told they all had to be put in a cellophane bag I was confused!! I clearly stated I wanted to purchase about 15 or so at an avg of 2.00 each and would like them in a box. The woman told me No. She told me the box costs 10x more than the cellephane! I asked to purchase a box and was refused. I was told if I wanted a box i had to buy the ones already made! I told her I didnt want those chocolates....i wanted the more expensive ones but still she refused me a box and lost my business.

I received a box of chocolates on Mother's Day, it was a great surprise because I do enjoy piece of chocolate after dinner..could not believe it was handmade😋🤩

Upon visiting today, the atmosphere at Dick’s Chocolates left much to be desired. Despite our initial excitement and enthusiasm, the experience fell short. It was disheartening to encounter frowns from every employee when we entered, as we navigated the pricing system unfamiliar to us. The absence of holiday cheer was evident, with minimal expressions of gratitude or festive wishes. As someone who had previously spoken highly of this place, the lackluster encounter was genuinely disappointing.

We were born and raised on Coco Joes! We used to love to go there and get the “Combo” (Italian ice and custard). I don’t know what the new owners have changed but it is NOT like it used to be. The last several times going there the ice has tasted sour and just not good, it’s sad to say we won’t be going back 😭

This is our favorite place in Bradenton to cool off with ice cold treats and fun games at the arcade annex next door! The new owners are very kind and generous and we enjoy every visit that keeps us coming back again and again! 🫶

We greatly enjoyed the custom creations that were made for us! The mix of flavored ice and custard with some surprise treats was awesome!

Just another reason why Coco Joe's Italian Ice will be the only place we get Italian Ice from ever. I call at 9:02pm. They close at 9pm. New owner answers. I asked would he stay open 5 for minutes that I had a van full of kids. He said sure. The girls screamed with delight. This man had already closed out his register and I am sure he was ready to head home but he proceeded to scoop out Italian ices for all seven girls and gave me a even though I only had enough cash to cover the kids. It is a summer tradition of ours to get Coco Joes wih our cousins since they don’t have Cocos in Jacksonville. The ice is the best, the new strawberry guava is amazing but most importantly, the people are amazing. Go get some amazing local Italian Ice. They even have dye free sugar free ice he let us try which is just as fabulous as all the others. Thank you to the new owner James Hinderer for being our God sighting night. (We had just finished volunteering at Roser Church VBS)!

Better than Rita’s and Jeremiah’s the sour spray was divine it was perfect after the beach which is perfect considering how hot it is, it took my headache away completely !!!!definately recommend 👍

This place beats the socks off of Jeremiah's Italian Ice! Coco Joe's has fabulous Italian ice and very reasonable prices! I will definitely be back!

Unfortunately not the same after being sold. After so many years of wonderful owners, food and service it was a sad surprise when we visited last week. A nonfriendly boy took our order and slammed the receipt down at us. I tipped generously as always and immediately regretted it. The custard recipe is different and not as creamy and doesn't taste right. My cousin found a full peanut in the middle of her gelato. She is not allergic but another cousin that was not with us at the time has a deadly peanut allergy. After 20 plus years we will not be returning unless any of the previous owners purchase it. On a positive note the honeydew ice was delicious but did have a full peanut hidden in the middle of it. :( First negative review I've ever left in my life. Maybe it was just an off day.

To start off horrible customer services, tried to use a gift card with a $10 balance didn’t work, the barista didn’t give a solution and simply stated if I had a another way to pay, but I insisted I had money, she states that they have been having problems and she would write my name down for the manger to look at, BUT didn’t ask for a number or any way of communication. Afterwards she hid in the back and never came out to solve the issue. Next the food wasn’t good. The frappe was more of a milkshake and had a funky aftertaste. The donut chip was stale and not worth any money. The sandwich was poor, look just like a Dunkin’ sandwich, and sting with their bacon, as it only had 2 small bacon. However the place does look nice, but that’s it, customers service and food not worth coming unless you want to take photos.

I’ve been coming here for about a year, but the service has become terrible. My order took over 40 minutes for a coffee and burrito, and when I brought it up, they still ignored it and kept pushing out other orders. It ended up taking another 15 minutes on top of that. No one took responsibility, no one cared, and the staff just looked confused. The customer service is non-existent. This place completely failed at handling a simple order, and they’ve lost my business for good.

We have been looking for that perfect coffee spot and found it! We walked in and the place was filled with patrons....always a good sign to start. The menu had so many appealing breakfast and coffee options. Reviews mentioned the avacado toast so i had to try. It was delicious....i was so full but had to finish the last few bites. I ordered the buckeye ice coffee....it was so tasty. My hubby ordered the breakfast sandwich and he raved about how good it was. Prices reasonable. Staff very friendly. We will definately be back.

Phenomenal local spot. Rachel and staff are super nice and friendly! Food and coffee are always on point.

I went in today and got a barista freestyle coffee which was absolutely amazing! My husband got a hot coffee buckeye style he loved! & my little one a chocolate milk. We also got hot food and everything was perfect! The girls inside were super sweet and quick! Thank you this will be my new coffee spot🫶🏽

Great place, great coffees, nice kids that work there. Love local spots like this. I'd rather give my money to someone local rather than Starbucks Every bit as good too!

We were so sad when we saw that the Palmetto Meat Shop was closing after being on this corner for 40 years; but all good things must come to an end. With a fresh outlook we paid a visit to Tenth Street Coffee the other night and we are glad we did. The staff was friendly and accommodating, the menu was diverse. Nice bonus that they allow breakfast and lunch to be served all day. It a cozy, well appointed, spacious layout. While it was a bummer that the musician wasn’t playing, Beep; Boop Beep’s wifey couldn’t get over how “soft” the table tops were. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Great little neighborhood coffee and food joint. Give ‘em a try!

Gorgeous and relaxing with phenomenal sunsets!

This beach is normally very nice and clean. However during holiday weekends, it can become very cluttered with trash and debris from visitors. There are bathrooms and showers and all of the amenities that you could ask for at a beach.

Always amazing

Love this realtor on the island. She works very hard and is one of the best in my opinion

My family absolutely loves this island. Can't wait to return.

Loved it

Love this place!

There is a lot about the history of this place on the web, so I won’t mention it, other than the fact that it has a rich history. The donuts were good the owner was super nice. Don’t let the look scare you off. Worth a stop on for carry out or dine in. Also it’s quite a bargain too!

Never judge this place by the outside. There are some spectacular donuts here. My favorite is the Vanilla Frosted Raised Doughnut. When I provided another woman a selection of our twelve donuts, She chose the same doughnut as well. I can't wait to come back and visit my relatives ... because I will have access to this donut shop.

Stopped for donuts around 8am, some of the donuts were stale tasting and not a great selection. Lady helping us was rolling her eyes and very rude. Skip it. Haven’t had Publix donuts but they can’t be worse.

This is a gem here in Bradenton! If you want that old school of sitting in a coffee shope, having a cup of coffee and donut you are in a treat. The staff is beyond friendly! This is definitely on my top of the list for great donuts, and coffee and sandwiches!! I had to get another glazed cinnamon roll with raisins!! (For those who arent into raisins we make it without!

Nice place, but my breakfast sandwich did not have the loaded bacon that other reviews stated. The pictures that I attached are from my breakfast spot in DC, Joe's Deli. I would have been impressed if they put half as much bacon as Joe. Both pictures are bacon egg and cheeses. Glad that they were open at 5am, but not impressed with the sandwich or the apple fritter. You can see for yourself but don't look to he wowed!!!

Delicious breakfast sandwich. Also cheap! Very sweet lady at the counter who joked with the locals. Also comfy casual atmosphere where they make donuts in the back.

I love finding donut shops when I’m out of town. I went about 30 minutes before they closed so I didn’t get a huge selection. The donuts were good and I would definitely go back

Tried it for the first time because I heard they reopened! Super yummy, probably the best donuts I’ve tasted! Even gave us a free donut to try! 10/10 🍩

Cute retro building and very nice owners with delicious donuts & sandwiches! We got a mixed dozen & a sausage biscuit sandwich which was made fresh- very good. Our faves were the coconut cake and Boston creme. The coffee (hot & iced) was great too! Building could be really awesome with some updates to enhance the vintage feel but overall definitely worth the stop!

This place is a local gem! They’re always very friendly and happy to help, it makes me happy just to be there! The donuts and breakfast sandwiches are always fresh and delicious. Like many others I’ve been a customer for years, I love getting donuts here. While they are currently still closed as they continue to repair from Milton, I’ll definitely be returning and grabbing another donut once the doors open again! 😊❤️

Yummy goodness on every tray! No favorites, love them all & all the free smells 😋 Reasonably priced, super fresh & friendly staff. Love everything about this place. Very old school interior which reminds me of the donut shops visited in my childhood. Highly recommend to satisfy a morning sweet tooth!

One thing that I have to say about this shop is that it looks deserted from the road. The windows are covered and the exterior hasn't been painted since another century. It seems to have been a Mister Donut once and has great architecture. As a designer I am always dreaming of what i would do to this shopto make it feel more trendy. I bet they'd increase their business dramatically with some cosmetic changes.

One of the best donut shops around. Can’t wait till the open back up. Just wish we knew when that was going to be. We miss going there for our breakfast sandwich and coffee.

This was the first time coming to get donuts. We just moved here and let me say these donuts were very fresh and taste amazing! Everyone grabbed one before I could get a full picture of the dozen. Great service!! We will be back and will highly recommend to Family & Friends. Thank you!!

Very cute and cozy farmhouse ambiance ! The yeast donuts were just a tad dry, it could be a little bit more moist and chewy. However, I like that the donuts were not overly sweet and tasted pretty healthy. Also love the fact that you can customize and build your own donut.

Really good donut place in Bradenton. Came with the Mrs and MIL today after a medical appointment. I am partial to the plain donuts as I think they are perfect as is. The apple fritter was great and the MIL had a ham and cheese donut. She loved it! My coffee was blistering hot and tasted great. Simply a wonderful place.

Connecticut style lobster rolls are a special, annual treat for me and MP is the place I go for exceptional quality and service. Always welcoming, the owner doesn't know me but makes me feel like she's been looking forward to my visit as much as I have. The peanut butter pie, mixed berry pie, cherry pie... Really I haven't had a pre there yet that wasn't delicious so I'll stop naming pies. Reasonably priced because of the quality.

We had a wonderful time here and thoroughly enjoyed our food. We tried the cuban sandwich and it was very good. We also tried several of their pies and they tasted fantastic. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and even though it was very busy, they served everyone quickly and professionally.

Highly recommend this business. The service is impeccable, the food is delicious and very obviously made with love. HIGHLY recommend the lobster roll and key lime pie. The owner is a dime too. She offered taste tests for pies to help my indecisiveness(: If you’re near you MUST TRY!!

Seriously, not a pie person. This place has made me a pie person. Had the honor to meet the owner, Shawna (hopefully correct spelling) and she was so kind. Walked me through the whole menu. Got the PB Truffle Pie and the Coconut Cream Pie. Both were stellar. Everyone needs to try this place.

Great family-owned and run business! Delicious lobster rolls (traditional or Connecticut style) with large chunks of lobster-no skimping! The quiches and pies are amazing as well... loved the coconut cream, and today i tried the key west crunch, also very good.

Family owned and operated hidden gem in Bradenton, Florida! We ordered the lobster roll and cuban sandwiches. The lobster roll was the best I've ever tasted! The cuban was incredible, too. We shared an amazing piece of peanut butter truffle pie for dessert. We will definitely stop in when we're in the area again. Thanks for the experience!

Mermaid Pies is a culinary delight that never fails to impress. The pies are the star of the show, with the peanut butter pie and apple pies being nothing short of incredible. The ingredients used are fresh and high-quality, contributing to the rich and satisfying flavors of each dish. The crusts are a standout, perfectly baked to provide that satisfying crunch with every bite. The food here is next level, with each dish being a testament to the skill and passion of the chef in this small Family business. The sandwiches are another highlight. The Cuban and the tuna sandwiches are great, each packed with flavor and served with a side of excellent customer service. Maine Seafood lovers will not be disappointed with the selection here. Fresh, well-cooked, and seasoned to perfection, it's a seafood lover's paradise. But the dish that takes the cake, or should we say pie, is the chicken pot pie. It's amazing, with a rich, creamy filling and a crust that's to die for. The crust takes this is a 10/10! Mermaid Pies is not a place you simply drive by. It's a destination, a place where every visit is a culinary adventure. And no matter how full you are, there's always room for a peanut butter cookie. Soft, chewy, and packed with peanut butter goodness, it's the perfect end to a perfect meal. In conclusion, Mermaid Pies offers an excellent dining experience with its incredible pies, great sandwiches, and excellent seafood selection. It's a place that's worth every penny and every minute spent.

Hands down best donuts in Bradenton! I visited this location for the first time this morning and I had the best experience. The owner was the one who assisted me with my order and I could not have been more impressed. The samples I tried were light, fluffy, and the glaze was perfect. The staff was wonderful. I will be returning often. Highly recommend Shipleys!

I’m from Texas! And being in Florida it made me happy to have my favorite Doughnut place closer than 18 hours... I drove 1.5 hours just to find out you have new hours and you are closed! Super upset that you didn’t update your hours! Google said 8 pm... and you have a dry erase board that says until 2... I wouldn’t of wasted my time or gas coming if you weren’t going to be open! Waste of 3 hours and half tank of gas...

We are so excited that Shipley’s has made its Florida debut. We grew up with Shipley’s in Houston, Texas and since moving to Florida way too many years ago, nothing compares. We are so excited for Shipley’s opening that I drove an hour and a half from Orlando to get Shipley’s donuts and kolaches today and back home again. The glazed donuts are. Quite different than any other place in this state. Kolaches are a Texas specialty and only 4 Rivers Smokehouse and one small donut shop in St Cloud serve them. If you are in the area of Bradenton, I recommend that you stop by. While this is too far of a drive for us to visit as often as we’d like, we will visit when we are in the area. My hope is that they will open one near Davenport, Fl.

Very fresh donuts. Very friendly staff members. Awesome prices. A wonderful experience.

Our first time going here! The donuts are fresh and customer service was great! Our family will be back soon!

Tried their donuts for the first time yesterday. I lived in Kalamazoo where the local donut shop was rated top ten in the US. We go back to IL and arrive at the local donut shop at 7:30 am to get warm donuts right from the cooling rack. This place has them both best hands down. Best chocolate covered donut I ever ate.

My boss brought donuts from here and it was the first time I'd tried them or heard of them. I brought one home for my son and now we are hooked! These donuts have the absolute best balance of sweet, soft and slightly doughy, and an almost crunch from how they are made. Simply perfect! Just wish there was one in Sarasota.

Back again. I swore I wouldn’t go back but we all cave eventually lol. This time it seems the staff forgot how to count. Ordered a dozen donuts, they were out of jelly so I said more blueberry is fine, no more blueberry, so I said okay maple is good too. Just got home and opened the box 😒 I’m no math wizard but I at least can count to 12. Do better

Took my family in for donuts and coffee. We were met by a very polite female worker who was extremely attentive. She was knowledgeable about the menu and even offered to make my coffee personally off the description I gave of how I like my coffee (not an avid coffee drinker). My family and I left happy! Thank you Breanna, your kindness did not go unnoticed.

Sunday morning and the manager only has two employees working. Now bless those two because they were running around busting themselves to try and get orders done. I had placed a mobile order to pick up at walk in. I stood in there for half an hour waiting. Whoever is the manager here needs to re-think their scheduling or be in there working with these people themselves.

A bit long wait time at the drive through on a Sunday morning but food was fresh and tasty. Nice and friendly service.

i waited 50 minutes for my food to get it completely wrong, with chunks in my hot chocolate. the workers were extremely rude, and nothing was being done. all the donuts i got were not correct. all the drinks were cold, and they shorted us on the hash browns. terrible experience.

Most disgusting store I have ever been in . Homeless person sleeping on table . When I went to order was told in a sarcastic way I gots customers at the drive through you gotta wait . I thought I was a customer . Your employees are doing zero for customers . Don’t know how this store stays open . Shame on you dinkin donuts

Ordered and paid for a mocha, watched the lady put in regular drip coffee with nothing in it thinking I wouldn’t notice.

Not only the BEST muffins EVER, especially the cappuccino chocolate chip, Sugar Cubed bakes delicious cakes! Valencia and her team can create anything you can dream of. They recently made the desserts for my daughter's wedding, everyone raved about the design and the flavor!

Amazing Bakery Items! Amazing Bakery Staff! Bradenton is lucky to have such a business in our community. I'm in there WAY too often. NEVER been disappointed. Don't tell my wife, but I'm about to have an affair with a Blueberry Ginger muffin. It's THAT good!

We absolutely LOVE Sugar Cubed! We were gifted an assortment of goodies this morning from a client. This is the 3rd or 4th time our office has received such deliciousness from Sugar Cubed. We are amazed at how fresh, warm and delightful everything was that we received. I would not hesitate to recommend Sugar Cubed to anyone in our area. The staff is wonderful too.

Three words: Peanut - Butter - Frosting. The best. You like peanut butter? This is next level. You don't like peanut butter? You might still love this. They also have these fried cheese things that are delicious.

Absolutely delicious bakery! I love that they offer delivery at this time. I was craving scones and found the website. I found the website simple and easy to use. Once it was delivered, I couldn’t wait to dig into my blueberry scone. It was delicious and I love that it wasn’t too sweet. I hope they can one day add the nutritional value for each item such as the muffins and the scones.

I ordered a sugar free birthday cake for my moms birthday. The cake was horrible! Stiff as a board with absolutely no flavor. We actually threw the entire cake away. I called owner and expressed my concerns. I was assured that I would receive a refund. Since that day in February 2021, I’m still waiting for refund! I was referred to this business by another bakery- sugar free cake request.

Ordered a special cake for my husband’s 40th birthday and it was AMAZING!! From start to finish, the team at Sugar Cubed was great to work with - listening, being creative, and clear communication. Although we just had a small, immediate family-only gathering, everyone loved the cake! It was moist, had delicious guava filling, was beautifully designed, and the frosting was just right. We look forward to ordering from Sugar Cubed again.

One placing my order the cashier was very nice. Nothing else was good. The girl making the food with pink hair was very unprofessional using all kinds of profanity. My sandwich was thrown together turkey sausage and egg croissant. The two orders of hash browns I ordered was not cooked thoroughly. Will not ever go to the store again. While waiting the long time for my food looking around the store is very dirty. Wish I had read all the reviews before going to the store and I agree with most don't waste your money or time. Please see the photos below very unacceptable.

I normally stop at this Dunkin’ every morning before taking my daughter to school and order the same drink — a Strawberry Coolatta. I know exactly how it looks and tastes because it’s part of my daily routine. This morning, however, I had a very disappointing experience with the manager, Latjah. Instead of giving me the drink I ordered, she tried to hand me a completely different drink (a Refresher) and insisted it was a Strawberry Coolatta. I explained politely that I order this drink every day and knew it wasn’t correct, but instead of fixing the mistake, she argued with me for nearly two minutes, saying she makes this drink every day and trying to convince me that I was wrong. After going back and forth, I asked for a reimbursement, which she eventually gave me, but the interaction left a very negative impression. As a loyal customer who comes in daily, I was shocked at how dismissive and unprofessional the manager was. For reference, I’ve included a photo of the Strawberry Coolatta from another Dunkin’ nearby (1st St. location), which is exactly how the drink should look. Please ensure your managers are properly trained — customers should be listened to, not argued with, especially when it comes to something as simple as receiving the drink they ordered. 🙏

I live close by to this Dunkin. The young african American guy that works in the afternoon around 2pm NEVER honors the promos that they place on the doors. For my last 3 visits when he works he has charged me full price. The main reason why I come at 2pm is to catch the $2 iced coffee after 2pm. I've been charged full price which is bad advertising. Today I told him I wanted the promos at the front door and he said ok. When I look at my receipt he charged full price. When the young Hispanic guy works he honors the discount. I guess it's a hit or miss that I need to go when they want to do their jobs. Also the young lady that works in the afternoon has honored the discount. The frozen coffee I ordered as you can see below in the picture is all milk there is no coffee in it whatsoever. I hope Dunkin is still not going by America runs on Dunkin cause they have just gone downhill. Where I'm from in NY/NJ they really take pride in their services and quality of food. Down in Florida customer service sucks and it shows in the quality of food. Edit:::::::: today I came in to buy my sons class donuts and munchkins at 7AM cannot believe they were SELLING OLD MUNCHKINS MIXED IN WITH NEW ONES. I tried one and could've chipped a tooth at how hard the munchkin was. I picked up another and again rock solid I had to squeeze one to get it to break. Very upset will call the BBB on this one because how are you selling days old donuts. The woman asked me what was wrong and I told her they are old. She gave me the box and said it's fixed. She did not apologize once I'm assuming she knew they put old donuts back on the shelf.

Every time I go to this Dunkin I am always received with kindness and respect, but during my visit on Saturday September 27 2025 around 6 PM I came in expecting a good iced coffee. I got my coffee drank it and it didn’t taste fresh, it didn’t taste like how I always got it. My brother came in earlier than me and he told that the iced coffee didn’t taste good today and it wasn’t good he didn’t even want it. No problem with the food though. When I told the employee my brothers experience about the coffee today she told me that she made new coffee or whatever it was a white woman with brown hair and glasses, she told me they made it new this and this whatever and I was like I’ll see for myself when I taste it. It tasted disgusting it gave me a bad taste in my mouth. This woman just made the coffee with so much caramel and allot of sugar thinking that the taste well be different or something she just made it taste 10X worse. I was Dining in with no drink bad experience eating. I don’t know who is in charge to clean the filters or whatever, but it also tasted like the filters weren’t clean or they used old coffee that day or week I don’t know. The fact that this woman lied to my face is unacceptable she did not make a new batch of coffee I am not happy with this. If I tell you a problem about my brothers experience tell me the truth if the coffee is old tell me so I can have a different drink don’t just lie out of your teeth so yea do better next time alright or I’ll spend my money at Starbucks right across the street

Ordered the $6 meal deal and had the worst experience. We were the only people in the drive thru and had to wait 10 minutes to get ICE COLD hash brown tots. The sandwich was cooked properly and even warm. 1 star for the lack of customer service and cold food when there was no one but us there

The service was great. The food not so much. I bought 4 doughnuts. The strawberry and vanilla frosted were great. The chocolate frosted and the "headlight" doughnuts were both stale. It was only 9:30 in the morning how are y'all selling stale dry doughnuts at 9:30 in the morning? 5 stars for the staff 2 stars for the doughnuts.

I give 0 stars. terrible service terrible breakfast. don't waste money. look the hashbrowns. not even a napkin. they're rude

I enjoy the people behind the counter when I go in. The donuts are average in flavor but what you would expect from Quick pastries. They have a couple of special drinks made with coconut milk that are interesting. The selection of donuts is definitely better in the morning than it is in the afternoon. They also have pretty good coffee and it's easy to get in and out of their parking lot unless there are a lot of cars there already in which case it's kind of small and cramped and irregularly shaped.

Just tried 2 delicious donuts and a Sausage, egg, bacon and egg ciabatta sandwich 🥪 The Apple Fritter and Peanut Butter and Chocolate donuts were fresh moist and delicious 😋 The sandwich was excellent as well. One of the better donut shop sandwiches I've had for breakfast in a long time. The Bacon was crisp and delicious. The sausage they use is spectacular! 4 🌟 🤩 Try Jack's Donuts on 41 across from the Ringling Campus. You'll love it!

Went this morning to try the donuts. They were amazing and filling as well. Really good service when we went too from a guy behind the counter on 7/21. Really helpful at explaining what some of the donuts were and what was in them. Jacks donuts has a great variety too, even some that you can’t find at other places. (I’m looking at you coconut) I cannot wait to come back as I luckily live close by. Drinks were also great.

Not much left after ten so a little discouraging. Coffee as good, but donuts just didn’t taste good. Glaze was fresh but tasted like bread. Chocolate yeast glaze did not hit the mark and didn’t finish…..

Big, Tasty, Decorated and glazed donuts! Would recommend to anyone for coffee and donuts! not pricey either for a dozen 25$ 🍩 thank you so much to the friendly customer service and welcoming us in!

$20 for a dozen mixed hard a$$ donuts that tasted like they were left uncovered on the counter for 2 days. I rinsed the sugar off and fed them to my chickens. I felt a little bad for even allowing them to eat bread that hard. .5 of a star. I would NEVER recommend. I'm really confused about the positive reviews. These were seriously the worst donuts I've probably ever had. In my best Biden voice, "seriously not a joke." Dunkin glazed @6p are light years better. I'm praying I went on their worst day ever or people are used to eating really bad donuts.

Brought home this box of the most delicious donuts!! There are so many flavors, it’s hard to pick a favorite! They were all amazing!

Sal Alonso, the owner of CopaMoca, makes the BEST carmel cappuccinos I've ever had in my life!! Not to mention how courteous Sal is. My boyfriend and I ordered 3 coffess, 3 pastries, and sal's AMAZING Sopressata Caprese Panini. The panini was made with the most freshest ingredients it was out of this world. CopaMoca is a bit hidden in bradentons historical art district, but it is a GEM! Please treat yourselfs to the best italian café bradenton has to offer!

Best coffee drinks. Beans are ground right before coffee drinks are brewed. Great pastries made original Italian way!! Also, owner is very friendly and deserves our business!!! Can hardly wait to taste the menu sandwiches and other dishes. My new go-to place for complete ambiance with great food! Thank you, Sal!

Best Irish scones I've found in the area! I enjoy the coffees and teas. The Lemon Soup is amazing. The panini and pastries are authentic Italian. The wine and antipasto trays are indulgent. Love the ambiance of art and music. Thanks, Sal!

This little coffee shop has the best panini and homemade pastries in town. Even so we were late getting there just right before closing hrs, the owner was very nice and treated us in a very welcoming way. His pastries are a must. I will be back very very soon. Lets support our local shops in town.

Upon arrival we noticed a nice updated building, clean out side, nice music. When opening the door we were greated by a happy dog who enjoys people. The owner was very friendly. The coffee and pastries were excellent.
