I grew up on the next street and woke up smelling their creations. If we cleaned our rooms on thurs mom would get pastries. Their butter cake was great but I still dream of their jelly tarts.my sister sends me sticky buns when I am in haegles with drawl. Boston has great Italian bakeries but nothing compares to a German bakery like this one
Haegele's Bakery is a real deal German dough and oven master in the heart of Northeast Philadelphia. It sits on the first floor of a row house at the corner of Barnett and Erdrick Streets in Mayfair. Although the retail shop is small, with display cases in front and bread shelving behind the sales space for the white clad family workers, the variety of breads, pastries, cookies and cakes are pretty enormous. Even when I arrived late in the morning, and they were sold out of their most popular items, I was able to score some fantastic examples of their craftsmanship. I grabbed a couple of Bavarian Cream filled donuts, with excess white cream exuding from all angles. They were light textured with a lovely mild sweetness that was instantly addictive. The perfect companion to fresh brewed java. I saw bricks of pound cake on a high shelf and inquired about the orange colored variety sitting among the white and brown frosted beauties that reminded of another famous local baker. I had never imaged Orange Pound Cake with Orange frosting was a thing, but learning that it was, and that it tasted like a creamsicle, I got excited and asked for a half brick. I shared slices of it at home last night with my love. It was also stupendous! It was moist, rich and true to its advertised flavor of orange cream. Should have gone with the whole one. Finally, a Garlic Twist Loaf came home with me. It looked like challah with roast garlic nibs on top. I cut off a chunk, spread butter on both exposed surfaces and lay two slices of imported swiss on top. Simple cheese sammy, but it all went well together with the bread freshly baked and the dairy adding its wholesome touch. Liked it a lot. I was too late for their rolls, round donuts and brownies, but rest assured, I will return earlier in the day to get my hands on them before they sell out. Haegele's is a classic Philadelphia institution that demands your attention and will please both your buds and sense of adventure about the many cool neighborhoods of this great city.

BY FAR THE BEST BAKERY Philadelphia has to offer. Always greeted with a warm welcome every time you walk through the front door. Their quality baked goods have been perfected and passed down through generations which puts them above all else! Only a short drive over the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge making this place extremely accessible for south jersey residents.
Best danish’s + donuts I ever had. Super friendly staff.
