Best Bakeries in Naples
Naples, Florida — updated August 22, 2026
Six Naples bakeries worth the drive, from a gluten-free kitchen on Immokalee Road to a chocolate atelier on Tamiami Trail, ranked by how settled their reputations are.
Listings verified
Naples bakeries cluster along two roads: Tamiami Trail, where most of the long-running counters sit, and 5th Avenue South, where the pastry is priced for people already out walking. The range runs wider than the beach-town setting suggests, taking in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, an Italian breakfast counter and a chocolatier with a national reputation. Below, six places ranked by how well they answer the question and how much review evidence stands behind each rating.
1. Silva's Bakery
The strongest combination of rating and volume in Naples: 4.8 across 456 reviews, which is enough traffic to call the score settled rather than promising. It sits on Tamiami Trail North near the Pelican Bay stretch, listed under coffee shops, so plan on a counter visit rather than a sit-down meal. That north-end address means it draws a regular weekday crowd from the surrounding neighborhoods rather than tourist overflow from downtown. Morning is the safe window for selection at any bakery working through a single day's baking, and this one is no exception.
2. Epiphany Gluten Free Bakery
The most-reviewed bakery on this list by a clear margin: 696 reviews at 4.7, which makes it the best-tested reputation in Naples. It is a fully gluten-free operation on Immokalee Road, in the shopping strip at #117, so cross-contamination is not the negotiation it becomes at a mixed kitchen. That single fact is why it ranks this high. Naples has a large share of visitors and residents eating around celiac disease or gluten intolerance, and a bakery built entirely around it is rare. Listed as a coffee shop, so expect counter service.
3. Norman Love Confections
Chocolate first, pastry alongside: this is a confectioner's salon rather than a bread bakery, which is why it sits third on a bakery list despite a 4.8 rating from 442 reviews. That review count puts it on nearly the same footing as Silva's for reliability. The Naples location is on Tamiami Trail North near the 41 and Golden Gate Parkway area, listed as a restaurant, so seating is part of the format. Worth knowing before you go that the draw here is finished dessert work and chocolates, not a morning loaf.
4. MonKeyBuntz Monkey Bread Factory
A single-product bakery on 5th Avenue South, and the 4.7 rating across 505 reviews suggests the narrow focus works. Monkey bread is pull-apart dough baked in a pan, sticky and shareable, which makes this a better stop for a group walking 5th Avenue than for someone after a quiet breakfast. The review volume is high enough that the score is proven rather than provisional. Given the downtown address, expect the heaviest foot traffic in high season and on weekend evenings when 5th Avenue fills.
5. Bonta’ Bakery
The best-documented hours of any bakery here, and the most useful ones. Breakfast runs 7:30am to 3pm, the doors stay open until 9:30pm daily, and the bakery discounts croissants, bomboloni, sandwiches and pizza by 50 percent after 9pm. That late window is unusual in Naples and makes this the default stop for anyone wanting pastry after dinner on 5th Avenue South. The rating is 4.7 from 361 reviews, solid evidence though a step behind the top two on volume. Bomboloni, the Italian filled doughnut, is the thing to order if you are unsure.
6. Mercato Italiano
Rated 4.8, but from 175 reviews, the thinnest evidence base on this list. That is a promising score rather than a proven one, and it is worth saying plainly. The address is 306 Tamiami Trail North, at the downtown end of the road rather than out by Pelican Bay, and it is listed as a coffee shop, so espresso and counter pastry are the format. The Italian framing puts it in the same category as Bonta' for morning pastry, with fewer people having weighed in so far.
What we left off
Nothing Bundt Cakes is a national chain, so it comes off regardless of its 4.8 rating across 132 reviews. Regina's Ice Cream, at 824 5th Avenue South, is out on two counts: multiple sources including Yelp report the location has closed, and its listing carried only two reviews, far too few to rank on. It also sold frozen desserts rather than baked goods, which puts it outside the premise of this guide.
