Editor’s picks
Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in The Infatuation and Nashville Scene. Updated July 2026.
D’Andrews Bakery & Cafe · Downtown
The Infatuation's No. 1: 'Pastries span the gamut from breakfast goods to impressive patisserie.'
Babychan · Germantown
The Infatuation: 'This Japanese bakery lives up to all the hype and then some.'
Dozen Bakery · Wedgewood-Houston
Dozen started in 2009 as Claire Meneely's holiday cookie pop-up before opening a full Wedgewood-Houston cafe in 2015. It has repeatedly won the Nashville Scene readers' poll for bakeries, praised for its breads, pastries, and rotating breakfast sandwiches. The cafe also serves a full lunch menu and pours coffee through the afternoon.
The Cupcake Collection · Germantown
Mignon Francois started The Cupcake Collection during the 2008 recession out of her Germantown home, building it into a shop that has sold millions of cupcakes and drawn national coverage. The sweet potato cupcake is the signature order. A second location later opened in the Hermitage area to keep up with demand.
