I'm hooked. I had one of their cream cheese and strawberry topped glazed donuts the other day and nearly wept it was so good. Best donut I've ever eaten in my life.

Best German Bakery. Bonomini is by far the best German bakery in the greater Cincinnati area. It is located in historic Northside. It is WELL worth a trip to this bakery, especially at Christmas. They make the best traditional Christmas stollen as well as other German cookies. I highly recommend this bakery.

The BEST family owned bakery left in Cinti!. This bakery is probably the Best family owned bakery in Cinti. I grew up on these bakery goods when this was Blue Rock Bakery owned by Rudy and his wife in the 50's, 60's and 70's. They sold this in the mid to late 70's. They were the typical German bakery owners. It lost it's luster until it became Bonomini's. They have restored GREAT baked goods back to this bakery. They have what I consider to be the best Jelly filled donut any where. They are TOPS! They make a banana frosted rusk that is UNBEATABLE! Just like I ate as a child. They still make a German cake donut called a Klunker, served plain, iced or with powdered sugar. These are simple and just SUPERB! DO NOT confuse these with those nasty store bought crullers. Their breakfast rolls and Danish are also Great. I highly rate their bread as well. I live 85 miles from them, but stop in whenever I'm in Northside, and I do load up. I highly recomend this bakery to all who still long for REAL baked goods made from scratch. This place is GREAT!!!

best cakes and desserts ever. The bakery could be in a better location, but they have the freshest cakes and pastries that I have ever taste. The cakes are baked to perfection. I make up occasions just to have a reason to have one of those cakes, and they have the freshest pastries, My whole family loves it.

If there's a better bakery in Cincinnati, I haven't been there.. The vienna bread is a must-have accompaniment with pasta. The ryes, light and dark, are an old-world (in Cincinnati, read: German) reminder of what real bread is supposed to be. I've never had a bad pastry in here, and the fruit-topped or filled offerings are amazing, such as the coffee cake, and the paczki during carnival season. It's even a good coffee and doughnut shop (carry out only, this ain't Dunkin'), but you'd better show up early because your choices dwindle as each wave of commuters make their pit stops. It's so good, I'm amazed it's still open and part of the neighborhood, but hey, that's Northside for you, 100% Old School.

Traditional wedding cakes and other baked treats, done right.. In Short
This family-owned bakery concentrates on tried-and-true favorites, including traditional tiered or pillared cakes in yellow, white or devil's food flavors. Only iodine-free buttercream frosting is used, because the bakers dislike the taste of rolled icing. Various colors and designs, including the ever-popular basketweave, are available; bakers will work with a couple to design custom wedding cakes. Bonomini is also known for baked treats like stollen, coffee cake and delicious cinnamon-dusted yeast donuts stuffed with dried fruit..

Pastries to Die For!. Ok, it's in a lousy area, but Bonomini has wonderful pastries. Addictive. The only other bakery that compares is Mt. Washington Bakery.
