10 Best Indianapolis Bakeries

Carol Mullins - The best donuts in the midwest.

Brittany Menestrina - Always worth the wait! Amazing bakery but do note they are cash only!

Kira Carney - These donuts are famous in Indiana. If you ever find yourself visiting this is a must visit place. Their donuts are very nicely priced and a little secret is waking up early morning and getting their early!!

Liz Pearce - An Indianapolis institution. This place has it all, from bagels and desserts to all of the traditional sandwiches and plated entrees. Go hungry!

Carol Mullins - Another one of Indianapolis's iconic places. Just south of Downtown, the cafeteria dining for breakfast and lunch offers variety and convenience. Good place to gather for meetings if you're Downtown.

Molly Pearcy - Shapiro's is a must visit for anyone traveling to the Indianapolis area. Their Ruben sandwich is great but my favorite is their chicken salad!

Carol Mullins - Best Sourdough bread and pastries in the European tradition, right here in Indy south of DT.

Kira Carney - My mom and I are obsessed with Amelia's. They are being super cautious during Covid-19 and are only allowing 2 customers in at a time. Their bread is always fresh and always amazing. They also sell cheeses, granola, sauces, and pastries! 10/10

Jeff Mullins - Local, fresh baked breads, unique, sourdough breads.
