means A shop or business where bread, pastries, and cakes are baked and sold.

from Built from 'bake' — an old Germanic word for cooking with dry heat, traceable back through Old English 'bacan' to a Proto-Indo-European root meaning simply 'to bake' — plus the suffix '-ery,' borrowed from French, which turns a verb into the place where that work happens (think 'brewery,' 'bindery'). Put together, the word is almost embarrassingly literal: the place where the baking is done.
