Will go nowhere else for cakes and pastries!

I have been going to The Baking Grounds for over 7 years for my baked goods. I have never been anything but happy with anything I have gotten and I don’t think there is much I haven’t tried! On multiple visits I have had lunch...while I was there and the food is as good as the baked goods! If you find yourself in the area make it a point to stop in, I know you won’t be disappointed!More

Lovely lunch with family

Ate herewith family including a 3 year old who loved it. Food was great and service very good. We go a couple times a month. Love to sit outside when it’s not so hot.

Good choice for breakfast

Incredible place for breakfast. Great food and coffee. Lots of pastry choices as well. Nice environment for a relaxed meal before you start your day! Friendly and efficient service by wait staff. They've been in business since 1958 so they know how to do things!...They also serve lunch which I may come back and try.More

Wonderful bakery/cafe

This is a wonderful bakery/cafe. Great food, friendly staff and owners. You can enjoy great food from the menu or enjoy the daily specials. They offer a daily flavored coffee and in spring and summer the daily coffee can be served iced. So many great...baked goods there’s nothing there isn’t delicious. Enjoy eating inside or outside and if you need to wait for a table it is so worth the wait🤩More

What a fabulous bakery! Clean and inviting! Their cakes are top notch and best I've seen. If you want a donut with coffee or want them to create a cake for your special occasion this is the right place to go to.
