They make exactly the sugar cookie I want when I have a taste for a sugar cookie, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth, with crisp icing, and vanilla flavor…just the best. The doughnuts are so fresh and flavorful. Nicest staff and the prices are excellent! You can walk in with a few dollars and leave with happy childhood memories.

All of the bakery is homemade and excellent! I have talked to the Baker and inquired about the ingredients used, and it is all with regular butter, eggs and other high quality ingredients, just like your mom or grandma would bake at home. no saturated fats or Garbage they put in store-bought bakery!! Large variety of donuts and pastries. Small bakeries like this are very hard to find nowadays, they are a thing of the past, so we are very lucky to have them!!

I used to love going here for the vanilla long johns as a kid. Idk what has changed but they arent the same. Maybe it's how they are packaging them. The owners and employees dont seem happy. Maybe they dont wnjoy what they do, so they arent putting care into it anymore. They used to have a ton of frosting on them. Now there is literally none. The second to last time I went they put them in a bag and all the fosting ran off of them. Thats what I assume happened. I didnt check to see if all the frosting was in the bottom of the bag, i just threw them away. Now just yesterday went went again. The cookies were hard, maybe thats how they are supposed to be? Im not a fan, they just seem stale. Also the vanilla long johns were in a box this time but each was wrapped all the way around with one of those papers they use to remove them from the case. Well the frosting dried to the paper, and when removing the paper it removed all the fosting. When i tried to scrape the frosting off the paper, to return to my doughnut, the paper just ripped, so i then tried to melt it into the microwave the fosting back onto the doughnut, but the fosting wont re-melt. This is the second visit where I've had to throw all the products I purchased in the trash. I definitely will not be retuening. I highly recommend going to meijer instead, that's where I will be shopping. Meijers products are just as good, if not better, and they package with care. So you dont have fosting-less doughnuts and stale cookies.

This bakery has a decent selection of baked goods. The service was good and the cookies were okay. The smaller cookies were a bit more crumbly than the larger ones. I wouldn't necessarily recommend Riverside if you're looking for a good doughy cookie option. The bakery is a bit pricy.
