Miller’s Thumb Bakery & Cafe

258 Highland Ave, Tonawanda, NY

★★★★★4.7(373 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

Nestled in Tonawanda, this bustling bakery-cafe is beloved for its exceptional fresh-baked goods—think perfectly crumbed chocolate cakes, crusty baguettes, and focaccia that keeps regulars coming back for more. The Saturday morning energy is electric (expect a line!), but the brisk pace means you'll be enjoying your espresso and pastry faster than you'd think, whether you're grabbing quick or settling in for a slower coffee moment. While their coffee drinks can be hit-or-miss, it's really the quality ingredients and artisanal breads that make this neighborhood gem special.

This place is buzzing with activity.. Saturday mornings do not be surprised to see a line out the door. As busy as it gets, the line moves pretty quickly. I love the assortment of breads and other bake goods, Miller’s Thumb Bakery has to offer. There is limited seating but if you choose to eat inside, you definitely will enjoy the people watching.

Their bread is amazing. A must try. All of their pastries are very fresh and to the point. The hot chocolate we ordered was disappointing though, was very watery and no chocolate taste. Otherwise their coffee and pastries are a definitely a must try!

Highly recommended! There is nothing like fresh bread & bake goods! I buy a baguette, focaccia bread & espresso every time. The quality of the ingredients is what makes this bakery so special. My family, friends and I can tell the difference. No preservatives or ingredients that extend longer shelf life. This greatly appreciated. I have always had a nice experience with the staff look forward to coming back. I will be honest, I didn’t want to write this review because the lines would be longer and my favorite items might sell out! The lines are worth the wait! Don’t miss out on this gem in the Ken/Ton area. 👊🏻

This place was recommended to us and it did not disappoint at all . We tried their Turkey sandwich on rustic loaf bread and a baguette which was very good! The red pepper relish in it gives a nice kick to the sandwich. Everything tasted so fresh . We also got their chocolate cake with cherries and it was so moist and had the perfect amount of sweetness. Everything was so balanced and flavorful. It can get busy around noon but the service is super quick. Highly recommend this place.

Update: Still the best baked goods around - just ate the chocolate cake - flawless. The crumb of the cake was perfect, the icing rich yet light. Man was that delicious! ---Just discovered this little gem of a bakery on Saturday - The owner is lovely. Through the window you can watch the wheat berries being ground into flour before the magic happens. The rustic loaf made the perfect bed for my BLT. The baguette was flawless. The oatmeal cookie was the best I have ever had. I bought various other baked goods and savored them all as everything was delicious. If you are looking for a new bakery, this is the place.
