Best French Bakery in Di Lido Island

"Forget everything you think you know about coffee and donuts. The Salty Donut, with multiple locations, serves up some of the most innovative donuts and coffee in Miami. The family-owned Salty Donut focuses on artisanal donuts made in small-batches and 100% from-scratch."

"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 popular kosher baker, who’s bread can be found all over town in grocery stores and restaurants, also boasts his own successful standalone shop. Expect not only his signature breads, but also an assortment of soups, bagels, sandwiches, and pastries during the day, along with falafel pop-up in the evenings."

"Compared to its Wynwood neighbors, Zak the Baker is kind of boring. The floor is grey concrete. The tables and chairs are simple and wooden."

"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."

"No need to drive to Key West for a quality slice: Miami is replete with plenty of takes on the classic pie that nail the sweet-to-tart ratio. At Fireman Derek’s, the key lime is the most requested flavor—and it’s no surprise why. It strikes the perfect balance between tart and sweet, and it always includes a generous heap of whipped cream."

"Pastry mastermind Antonio Bachour is known for posting downright drool-worthy shots of his desserts to 900,000 followers (and counting)—and now you can get in on the action by visiting one of his namesake bakery and restaurant locations in Coral Gables, Miami Beach and Doral. (P.S. You’re going to want to get a few pastries for the road after you’re done photoshooting.). 2020 Salzedo St. Coral Gables; antoniobachour.com/restaurant-antonio-bachour"

"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."

"Want beautiful and perhaps the best dessert in Miami? This is the place to come, but they don't just do desserts - the crossaints at Bachour are insane.". Bachour2020 Salzedo StMiami, United States"

"At Buttercream we have been baking our classic red velvet cupcake for the last 10 years. Our delicious red velvet... A great place to meet up with friends for delicious cupcakes and great coffee."

"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)."

"Restaurants Bakeries Design District. Miami’s late-night purveyor of gooey, made-to-order, donut-sized cookies is holding strong as one of the city’s best dessert delivery. It used to be that only FIU college students and people living nearby had access to these dank treats but thanks to a second store in the Miami Design District, nearly everyone can get their hands on these."

"It’s business as usual at both locations with the entire menu available. Keeping it trendy, Night Owl will also feature specials like cookies inspired by Tiger King along with a Wake ‘n Bacon cookie, a chocolate chip cookie topped with creamy dulce de leche and dipped in candied bacon.

"If you want a cookie as big as a frisbee, check out the menu at Night Owl Cookies. They’ve got two locations in the Design District and near FIU. The menu includes a bunch of pretty crazy-looking cookies that would work wonderfully during a movie night or to fling across the room at your disrespectful roommate."

"This place has occupied its tiny little storefront on Sunset Drive for decades. Their milkshakes are so thick you can barely get them through a straw, and their chocolate malt shake is as classic as it gets. No fancy machines, no exotic flavors, just some of the best classic ice cream around, with generous scoops."

"Started in 1985, Whip ‘N Dip ranks as a long-time staple among the best Miami ice cream shops. Using locally sourced ingredients from partner suppliers, they make new flavors daily. Some must-trys include banana nut chip, heath bar brownie and chocolate-covered almond."

"A South Dade mainstay, this ever-popular ice cream stand has been serving homemade ice cream, cookies, and other sweets to the crowds for close to 30 years. Order online for in-store pick up."

"Midtown Creamery has some pretty intense ice cream creations, like a “giant” ice cream sandwich, brownie sundaes, and milkshakes that could last you three days. The Edgewater spot is currently delivering on most major delivery apps. You can also call (786) 536-2281 to order."

"In the midst of rusted warehouses and concrete blah, there's a pastel-and-graffiti explosion of urban art. Wynwood Walls is a collection of murals and paintings laid out over an open courtyard that invariably bowls people over with its sheer color profile and unexpected location. What’s on offer tends to change with the coming and going of major arts events such as Art Basel, but it's always interesting stuff."

"Our last day was spent at the creative Wynwood Walls art exhibit. Beautiful mosaics are spread across a few blocks on streets and on buildings, even on the sidewalks!"

"Between Northeast 25th and 26th streets on Northwest 2nd Avenue, the Wynwood Walls are a cutting-edge enclave of modern urban murals,…"
