Potter's House Bakery and Café
10 Chestnut Hill Rd, Dover, NH
Crema's Take
“This Dover institution has earned its stellar reputation by doing the fundamentals exceptionally well: their pastries and baked goods are genuinely special (reviewers keep coming back specifically for Swiss rolls, éclairs, and custom cakes), while their coffee program shines with standout drinks like their silky Aerocano that doesn't require milk to taste incredible. The welcoming, efficient staff and family-friendly vibe—complete with a sensory space for kids—make it the kind of place where people don't just grab coffee, they make the drive back again and again.”

Very welcoming atmosphere, great selection of pastries and donuts along with pies, and even has a sensory spot for kids! The food choices are basically upgraded, much better versions of what you could get from a chain. Loved the sausage egg and cheese on jalapeno cheddar, and the lavender latte was interesting (not my personal favorite but wasn't bad). Not a lot of places to sit so it's not ideal for meetups but it works with all of the open space. Everyone is super awesome here!
I love Potters! My coworkers and I discovered this place when we used to frequent Rochester for work, and although we rarely go in to town for work anymore we make the drive just for their sandwiches and treats. The staff is awesome, the food is delicious, and the prices are super reasonable. Truly a gem with so much to offer. Worth the stop in!
Visited on a Saturday morning. Line was at the door when we walked in, but the wait wasnt long at all! The staff was friendly and super quick. We ordered a brownie, raspberry bismark, and an eclair. All three were wonderful and the prices were great! Highly recommended and will be back again soon.
Excellent Aerocano and Swiss roll! I'm so glad I tried this place. The Aerocano doesn't need milk or cream! Such a smooth and tasty espresso treat 😋 The Swiss roll was amazingly delicious and perfectly made. 👌🤤
We love Potters House Bakery! We have been ordering cakes from them for the past two years for all our events. Their cakes are taste fantastic and always look wonderful! We get compliments on the cakes whenever we serve them and are sure to let them know they’re from potters. We love their bakery items too!
