“ Everything is fresh! Amazing customer service and owners are in the building readily available to greet and answer customer questions. I highly recommend a visit and get there early! ”
“ I wanted to try a local bake shop in the Frederick area and was pleasantly impressed by the Bakehouse. I got there when they had sold out and the owner was very kind enough to check the back of the house and get some pastries for my sister and I completely free. They all tasted amazing and we will definitely return. ”
“ Long line but moved quickly, but excellent treats. I shoes up about an hour and a half after opening and some of the baked goods, including the pear almond honey croissant I saw on the menu, were already sold out for the day. It wasn't my first choice but I got the cardamom crumb cake and it was delicious. It was also enormous and I ate it over three sittings. Got a drip coffee and took my breakfast to go on a lovely stroll along the nearby creek and neighboring park. The staff was friendly and efficient. A local treasure! ”
“ The staff are truly so kind. I rarely see cardamom treats so I was excited to get their cardamom coffee cake. It was delicious and all the portions are massive! The cinnamon bun was also delicious. They were so kind and threw in some freebies including chocolate chip and pecan cookies, monkey bread, and more cake. FYI: they don't do espresso drinks but still have drip coffee! I will def be back! ”
“ Amazing baked goods, WOW! You have to arrive early because a lot of items sell out rather quickly, but it was worth the wait on line. The line also moves pretty quickly. They have tons of options to please everyone- including both savory and sweet baked goods- availability based on first come first serve. The staff is also super kind and you can tell they take a lot of pride in their work. I am excited to come back next time I'm in Frederick! ”
“ Such a great minimalistic store with really nice pastries. There was a good size line that got longer as we waited. The line moved surprisingly slow really with all the food already prepared sitting out front and the amount of staff. Clearly the quickness wasn't an issue by the amount of people willing to wait. The wait lended itself to conversation with strangers which may or may not be by design. The selection was small, not too small, but with a nice variety. We left with wayyyy too much. The scones, the cinnamon popover thing, the croissants, the almond croissant....it all was just a little different than we've had before. Different in a good way too! Not a great selection of beverages but there are some. For us this little unassuming gem was well worth a little the little detour. *****forgot to take photos but these are the items we got and looked just like that! ”
“ Got here right before they opened, and there was a line already formed. I absolutely love the space. It is filled with plants, greenery , and an amazing baking scent. Every single bite of all of these was amazing and not only that, all of the servers. I will be coming here more often to see the new seasonal choices. ”
“ I had a sweet coworker stop by bakehouse to buy some pastries for me. She ordered the crème brûlée cruffin and the chocolate croissant. Both were delicious but the cruffin was to die for! The custard was the perfect amount and the sweet sugary outside was delectable. I need to take the hike to Frederick on a weekday to stop by the stop because I can't stop thinking about it. ”
“ Off the chart baked goods - friendly staff. I was also blown away today when the owner came out to talk to the people in line. He said that one item was not available as they did not like how it came out. And that if you had come for that item to tell the staff behind the counter and they would give you a free item or a coupon for that missed item for the future. Amazing move. ”
“ One Place to Check Off my Foodie Bucket List Among local foodie, this bakery has become legendary. It's been on my "foodie bucket list" for a while. You have to go at the right day, at the right time of day. It has be plan with precision, to achieve baked goods rewards and success, I woke up at 7 AM on Sunday, and phone a greedy little foodie friend, who'd be game. We set out for Frederick, Maryland, the next county over and about an hour away. Parking can be difficult in Historical Frederick but there's a parking garage. Sometimes, if you are blessed you find street parking. Once you arrive, you get on the line that snakes out the door, into the sidewalk. You wait patiently, then it's your turn so be ready with your order. I used my yellow notepad in my iPhone. The menu is posted once a month, plus you may encounter a "special item." My only advice is be ready with the order, arrive early. The baked goods are legit out of this world, I got cruffin, coffee cakes, Gouda and Prosciutto, jalapeño flavored pastries, and the best dessert of them all, strawberry shortcake. The service was excellent, friendly, amazing, quick and fast. The bakery is a beautiful store front that gives the feel of an old house. In my long dessert eating experience, the baked goods were delicious, incredible and sublime. Some real show stoppers. On the side of the building is a commission piece of art of a famed jazz musician, Lester Bowie. I find that art can inspire you to learn about the past and/or a new perspective or culture. All-in-all, it was an excellent way to spend a Sunday. ”
