Sweet Tradition at Cinotti’s Bakery

If you’ve spent any time in Jacksonville Beach, chances are you’ve heard of Cinotti’s Bakery. This family-owned spot has been serving up breads, donuts, cakes, and sandwiches for decades, becoming a local staple.

The Cinotti family’s baking roots go back five generations, starting in Cleveland before moving to Jacksonville in the 1950s. In 1990, they opened their Penman Road location in Jax Beach, where you’ll still find long lines on weekend mornings for their scratch-made goodies.

And when fall hits, their pumpkin donuts are legendary—people line up at sunrise just to grab a dozen before they sell out.

From seasonal favorites like Mardi Gras king cakes and Christmas cookies to everyday treats like their famous donuts, Cinotti’s has built a loyal following. It’s more than just a bakery—it’s a piece of Jacksonville Beach history, still run by the Cinotti family with the same focus on tradition, community, and fresh-from-scratch baking.
