Bakeries in Clarksville

Last checked 2026-10-18. Refreshed every three months.

Clarksville’s bakeries are spread out: Silke’s Old World Breads on College Street, cake and croissant shops on Wilma Rudolph Boulevard, and the doughnut shops on Madison Street and Lowes Drive.

How we made this list. We started from the OpenStreetMap records for bakeries and cafes inside Clarksville, the same records that feed our local directory, and checked each place against its own website on 2026-10-18. Every shop below was added or confirmed from its own site. Two bakeries in the map records have no website of their own, and a doughnut shop’s site now says its Clarksville store has closed, so they are not in the table. The list is alphabetical; it is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. If your entry is wrong, write to us.
