Bread, sweet tooth, and pastry cravings are real! Let us help you indulge yourself with the best bakery items on Anastasia Island. From baguettes to flan and Latin America to Europe we’ve got you covered in our list of Bakeries on Anastasia Island.
Les Petite Pleasures
The only true bakery on Anastasia Island and quite possibly the best bakery in St. Augustine, Les Petite Pleasures is a French pastry utopia. Their display counter is filled with French desserts on the left and French pastries on the right. We’ve tried almost everything and have never been disappointed.
Freshly made baguettes are available in the morning, but you have to arrive early because the locals love ‘em.
Island Donuts
Fresh homemade donuts daily! Don’t walk in expecting an average donut. A lot of their donuts have a subtle twist. Get there early. They only make a set amount of each type of donut per day. Some of the more popular flavors are The Boston Crème, Glazed, and Old Fashioned.
Paladar Cuban Eatery
Cuban bakery items at their best. Think Tres leches, Flan, Croquetas, Pastelitos, pudding, cookies, macarons…the list goes on. Everything is homemade and fresh. The bakery items and the food at Paladar are delicious. Their service is impeccable, too.
