    Hands down the best and most authentic Greek food in Cleveland. Despina and Sophia make each guest feel like family.

    Whenever I want to be transported to a makeshift European bakery, then I come to Breadsmith. Mind…read moreyou, I've never been to Europe but that's beside the point, haha. The breads at Breadsmith are fresh and made daily. I don't come here often but I should. I love walking inside to the delightful smell of fresh breads. I first tried one of their breads, the Rustic Italian bread in January 2019 when I bought it from Nature's Oasis in Lakewood, a little cafe and convenience store (see video and picture below). I finally visited Breadsmith in October 2021 and I've been back a few times in 2024. I've bought their white Country Buttertop Bread ($6.75) which can be bought sliced or un-sliced. I've also had their Honey Wheat (I believe that's the name). Both tasted so fresh and good. After 3 days, their breads will start to taste stale because they are made without preservatives. Next time, I'll ask if I can get a smaller loaf of bread instead of such a large loaf because I can't finish a whole loaf by the 3rd day. They also sell muffins, cinnamon rolls, honey, etc. I haven't bought any of those but I've had their pepperoni roll before which was just fine and slightly expensive. I wish they sold croissants. Come here for the bread and stay for the friendly customer service. I'll definitely be back. The cost of all their breads are reasonable. TIP -- They offer a customer loyalty punch card. After you've bought 12 loaves, you get the 13th for free. **** GOAL of 150 reviews in 2024 - 41/150 total reviews in 2024 - 691 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 2 June 2024

I was looking for a bakery that makes Dobos Torte and came across Farkas Pastry Shop. Not only was the Dobos Torte DELICIOUS, it was a beautiful, fancier version of what my mother used to make for me growing up. We thoroughly enjoyed it. We also loved the poppyseed roll as well as the Tepertös Pogácsa. It was great talking with Mike while picking up my order. It was well worth the drive to Cleveland! Can't wait till my next visit to Farkas! Köszönöm Szépen!

We ordered the Napoleon, Amaretto Square, the Gerbaud, and Apple Linzer. The Napoleon was a 10 out of 10. We are one in the car and went back for more. The texture was great. Flaky, creamy, delicious. The Amaretto Square. Was good as well. Not too sweet, beautifully made. The Amaretto flavor wasn't as good as some others I've had. Maybe it's the type of flavoring/Amaretto used. The Gerbaud was definitely a crunchier dessert. Again made beautifully and has great flavor. The Apple Linzer. Another hit. The filling and Crust were perfect. Wouldn't change a thing. Service was great. Obviously this place has been around for a very long time. They know what they are doing. Only thing I would say is that it needs a facelift. Maybe not for locals but coming from out of town the look doesn't make you want to come in. Nor does the way the pastries are show cased. It just all feels run down. Not a place I would ever visit or offer good from ordinarily if I hadn't read such great reviews before going. We all eat with our eyes first.
