“Came from celina to eat today everything cooked perfect usually my over easy eggs hard bacon not crispy toasted hardly buttered perfect today not 1 complaint was surprised cook needs a pat on the back“

“This is currently my favorite place on campus to eat. Why?Speedy service, good prices, and quality food, all served by friendly employees in a clean, conveniently located environment!? That's about all I could ask for from ANY dining establishment, especially one on a college campus.P.S. - Try the Mac and Cheese!! It's absolutely incredible (especially during the colder months in Muncie).“

“Great place! Awesome service, the donuts and coffee were good quality. Very good atmosphere and dog friendly!! Highly highly recommend this place!!!“

“excellent! my 1st time here. I had a Latte and the breakfast burrito. Burrito was hot and delicious 😋! I'd definitely stop here again.“

“Concannon's Bakery has been a a go to shop since my childhood. I can recall being very young and picking up doughnuts with my mother at their downtown Muncie location in the early 1970's.

Fast forward to 2024 and they have moved twice and are now on the Northwest side of Muncie in a beautiful large building since around 2010. Parking is in their own surface lot.

The display cases are reminiscent of my teen years when looking over all of the yummy doughnuts. As well as the multi layered service behind the counter to serve customers quickly. I found the service to be very good.

What has changed is the amount of additional items outside of their delicious doughnuts offered. Like pretzels, popcorn and various candies. All available by mail order. They also have these branded items in various locations in state and the Midwest. They also added a coffee bar in their newer location. A barista takes your order.

Finally the biggest change is adding a dining room to enjoy these amazing doughnuts. I found the area clean. It's self busing.

My order was a childhood favorite Long John with buttercream and a powdered sugar with buttercream. I also ordered a house coffee. I enjoyed them in the dining room. The pastries seem close to identical, but smaller in size and much more expensive.

I loved my visit back to my hometown and of course to a super FAVORITE business. However, they are not quite as amazing as they once were in my opinion on taste. At the same time major improvements have occurred which is appreciated. 4.5 rounding down and absolutely recommend hitting them up.

Parking: Surface parking nearby the building.

Kid-friendliness: High chairs

Wheelchair accessibility: Flat surface and handicap parking.“

“Panera is always a great choice for fresh and flavorful food in a cozy atmosphere. Panera stands out for its friendly service and well kept dining area. Whether it is their soups, salads, or sandwiches, everything tastes fresh and satisfying. I also enjoy their bakery items, especially the cookies and pastries. The self order kiosks make the process quick and easy, but the staff is always available to help if needed. It is a perfect spot for a casual meal or even just to relax with a coffee and free Wi-Fi.“

“Great breakfast. Eric was a very good waiter.“

“I love the employees here every time I walk in. The menu looks poorly made and the meals are expensive for what you get. The drinks are good but very expensive to add boba to it. The girls who were working today(ella and Nicole I think they're names were) were very polite and helped me try new drinks. I recommend the mango pineapple smoothie.“

“Idk who you monsters are that gave this place fewer than 5 stars. Drove in to Muncie for a wedding. Was looking for some caffeine and a snacky snack and tripped over The Cup. We order the bacon brie bagel, and the turkey pesto bagel, and something boo on an everything bagel and then we ordered 3 lattes. This was everything we could have hoped for. We kept passing the sandwiches around. Couldn't decide which one we liked best. This place is amazing!“
