The baked goods are always fresh. The cider donuts in the fall were amazing. Also, the cinnamon crumb cake is a favorite along with a cup of coffee.

I paid 20 cents shy of 11:00 for 3 items. The strawberry donut was dry and hard. The chocolate croissant had very little filling. The coconut macaroon was the only decent item. Will not be back. Way too expensive for terrible bake goods. There is no ambience at all. Very disappointed.

I ordered 2 coconut 2 custard filled and 4 white frosted cake donuts with a pocket up date for Saturday 01/17/26. I was very disappointed! They were stale....with the exception of the custard. I was told I couldn't order over the phone due to being short staffed! I had to order online. I used to get my donuts for my family every Saturday and since the new owners took over they have been not good. I've tried 3 times now to see if they would improve! Nope.....my grandkids took one bite and said gross....my mother tried to eat the coconut one and it crumbled all over. Very very disappointed! I won't be going back!

Walked in on a whim while waiting for the train. Bought a sourdough loaf and their chocolate croissants. Both were delicious and fresh and the croissants tasted phenomenal warmed up even a couple days later. I was pleased that they also sold bread and not just pastries/cakes. I was greeted with a smile and service was fast. Great little local spot. They also have a little fridge with VERY fancy looking cake.

My Mother in law’s 90th Birthday sheet Cake came out decorated beautifully and exactly as ordered! Everyone at church for the celebration raved about the cake! Highly recommend.
The donuts here are other-worldly. Think of every famous bakery treat you’ve ever had — then imagine the best possible version of each, amplified by 20. That’s the level of quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail happening in this place.
I tried the Maple Bacon Long John, Nutella-Stuffed Donut, Pistachio Cream-Filled Croissant, Chocolate Croissant, two Éclairs, and the Cinnamon Crunch Loaf…
Every single one was mind-blowing. Flavors dialed in. Textures perfect. Presentation on point.
If you’re anywhere near this bakery, do yourself a favor and go. This isn’t just dessert — it’s an experience.

I hired Village Bakery to prepare treats for my daughter’s first birthday. I was looking for a smash cake and an assortment of cookies with the Hey Bear Dancing Fruit design in mind. See photos: they turned out phenomenal! The staff really put their heart and efforts into it and I was amazed by the detail. I would definitely recommend hiring them for any custom desserts you may need.
Also, leading up to the party, they were very communicative and made the process of customizing my order painless. I live several hours away from them (I was hosting the party nearby at my parents) so I really appreciated they were responsive via email. I had messaged two other bakeries in the area, and I was either completely ghosted or they never responded to me after that initial contact. Village Bakery did neither and it really set my mind at ease planning a party from a distance.

If your going for donuts don't bother. Got a dozen and they were all really dry and not very tasteful

I've visited to this bakery over the years and it has not been living up to its history. While the inside looks amazing with the clean paint and ceramic flooring, I miss the coffee bar. It would be great to add chair/table groups (like they have outside) inside by the front windows. The samples we got were disappointing. The caramel on the cinnamon roll was so hard that half of the pecans were not edible. If the croissant had not had almonds on it I would have known by the flavor that it was an almond croissant.
