Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Park View Island

"You’ll often notice this family-owned, artisanal donut shop because of the winding line outside (don’t worry, it moves quickly). While it started out as a pop-up in Wynwood, The Salty Donut quickly gained a cult-like following thanks to its over-the-top creations and it currently has locations in Wynwood and South Miami. Everything is made from scratch, artificial ingredients are a no-no, and there’s a solid mix of staple and seasonal donuts."

"The line may wrap around the block, but every single minute waiting is worth it. Trust me, once you take a bite of one of their donuts, happy tears will start streaming down your face. And oh yeah, guess what?"

"The Salty Donut, located in the heart of Wynwood, Miami, is famous for their mouthwatering and beautifully-made donuts. Catch them in the mornings because they tend to sell out quite quickly."

"Zak the Baker's Technicolor building is just billed as "bakery" on the outside—a sign of false modesty if ever there was one. Zak's is known for its world-class bread, which some of the city's best restaurants order to serve to their customers. Here at the mothership, though, the painstakingly made pleated loaves are topped with corned beef or avocado, and rye bread, chocolate babkas, and quiche all fly off the shelves."

"Restaurants Delis Wynwood"

"Former Miami firefighter Derek Kaplan's chocolate cake is practically synonymous with over-the-top chocolate merriment. This decadent double-layer creation is not only blanketed in a chocolate drip shell but also topped with chocolate buttercream frosting and mini chocolate chips. A slice costs $8.50, and a whole cake, for $68, weighs more than eight pounds and serves up to 20 people."

"When it comes to pies, the first name that usually comes to mind in Miami is Fireman Derek’s. It proudly calls itself “Miami’s original pie shop,” and it’s earned a huge following with its larger-than-life creations, served whole or by the slice. Flavors range from salted caramel to guava berry, though we’re partial to cookie monster and the brownie bomb."

"This hole in the wall bakeshop is located in the heart of Wynwood, where hipsters and trendsetters unite. It’s owned and operated by a former fireman whose dream was to own a bakery. And thankfully for us, he accomplished his dream and create the most insta and drool worthy pies."

"Brunch doesn’t have to mean heavenly amounts of cured pork and eggs six different ways. For a carb-ier, sugar-focused alternative, no place tops his beloved outpost from master pastry chef Antonio Bachour. In addition to the usual croissants and macarons, the lengthier weekend menu also includes guava and cheese pancakes, challah French toast, and a Spanish scramble, all showcasing the same detailed deliciousness as their sweet counterparts.How to order: Reservations available via Bachour’s website"

"Bachour’s iconic flower entrance sets the stage for a fantastic brunch with impeccable food. Located in the heart of Coral Gables, Bachour, is the restaurant, bakery and pastry shop by world renown pastry chef Antonio Bachour. The menu is Contemporary American, and features a full-line of croissants, egg-based dishes, tartines, sandwiches, salads and main courses as well as Bachour’s petite-gateux, macarons and bonbons."

Order at the counter then take a seat either in the quaint dining room or out in the lovely tented patio. French fare includes tasty omelets with varieties such as Smoked Salmon-Brie-Arugula-Pesto and Bacon-Potato-Green Onions-Cheddar Cheese."

"Tucked away in Little Havana, this small café and bakery is relaxed and unpretentious. Okay, the ambiance could use some work, but their service is warm and friendly, and you’ll find some of the best Cuban breakfast and lunch specials here. You can’t go wrong with the eggs, bacon or ham, fries, and Cuban toast breakfast combo, with the cafe con leche."

"For those of you who want a little more variety (or for those that don't like shopping), you can stop at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, where there is something for everyone. Guests have the option to enjoy the casino, horse racing, live entertainment and more."

"Part vintage surf shack, part sultry outdoor club, Hyde Beach at SLS South Beach hotel is a prime spot to rub elbows with the young and fabulous of South Beach beneath string lighting and palm trees. Inside the bar, you’ll find VIP tables, a DJ booth and dance floor, while outdoors there’s a sprawling space to mix and mingle in the fresh air by the swimming pools. For a debauched weekend daytime pool party, this is one of the hottest scenes in town."

"Hyde Beach offers artful mixology and cuisine from Jose Andrés — all in an over 8,000 square-foot indoor/outdoor space with a gorgeous pool and beach access."

"Continue south on Collins Avenue and enjoy the views of Miami Beach, eventually reaching iconic South Beach. Park and head to the sand to enjoy a few hours on the beach. If that doesn’t sound like the right fit, enjoy a walk along iconic Lincoln Road for shopping, eating, drinking and people watching."

"If you’re feeling ambitious on your townie cruiser, you can ride north to Bal Harbour or Haulover beaches; natives know these as water-sports havens—and for Bal Harbour’s luxury shopping. Otherwise, drop off your bike along Ocean Drive and grab a spot on the beach, Lummus Beach, which runs from around 6th to 14th streets. This is a beach for locals and tourists alike, and the spread of humanity—supermodels, families and even topless tanners—make this a go-to spot for people-watching."

"Take I-95 south and grab the Rickenbacker Causeway until you hit Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park. This beautiful state park is right at the end of Key Biscayne and gives you uninterrupted views of the ocean—a perfect sunset watching spot. The state park has a lighthouse, where guests can climb to the top and look out into the ocean and the beach below. Next to it is a cement lookout spot that serves as a bench to watch the sunset and enjoy your Zak the Baker treats (if you didn't eat them already on the car ride down)."
