Friendly staff and delicious food always has me returning! The decor is cozy, love the exposed brick. The drinks and food are delicious as are the desserts! But the staff is always friendly and helpful and that's important too. Highly recommend stopping by!

Stopped here for a quick coffee on our way home from a road trip and we were pleasantly surprised! The lattes are made with local dairy and the flavor options all sounded delicious. I tried their seasonal Chocolate Strawberry Latte, which is made with espresso, strwaberry syrup, and local chocolate milk. It was so so good! The atmosphere was relaxed and there are large windows with plants.

There were no gluten-free pastries to choose from so we did not order anything from the cabinet. :(

Big fan of Ella’s Acres and this was our first time trying Homestead Baking Co. I ordered a bacon and eggs breakfast sandwich which was amazing! The bagel was exceptional. I also had a latte and got a hummingbird cake which was so beautiful and delicious! Definitely a great spot for a quick bite or a lunch with friends.

I ordered a sausage, egg & cheese bagel on sesame that I ate right away. It was absolutely delicious. I also picked up a cranberry scone and a pistachio mocha scone to take home for my wife. My wife raved about how delicious they were. Saying they may be the best scones she has ever had

Perfect spot for breakfast while visiting downtown. Walked in to smiling staff and delicious smell of fresh baked pastries and coffee. Breakfast sandwiches were delicious and the cinnamon roll was one of the best we’ve ever had!

After leaving the Soulful Cup Coffee house where we were treated very poorly my wife and I decided to come to the Homestead Baking Co.. It was an awesome experience! We will recommend this place to everyone we know! The pastries are to die for!

Di, Raven, Nicole, Daz, and Kira are AMAZING! The cookies and scones are great, the cookie butter cinnamon rolls are INSANE and an entire experience, and the coffee and service are usually really really good.

However, let me preface this by saying I worked in the device industry for years and have experienced the best and worst customer service in general, and absolutely amazing customer service at Homestead. That has never once come from Christy.

Christy is an issue. I have never gotten good coffee from her, customer service is ok at best and has been borderline antagonistic at times, I’ve seen her be very sharp with other people working in the bakery in ways to at felt very inappropriate in front of house in front of customers, and I actively avoid Homestead now if I see Christy is working. Earlier this week I went with a friend and Christy was the barista. The cold brew was watery, the cold foam practically liquid, and the sweater weather latte I ordered (my favorite and absolute perfection when Di or Raven makes it) tasted like nothing. Christy offered to add more syrup but when the only bad coffee I’ve ever gotten at Homestead is consistently made by Christy, I feel like there’s a problem that can’t be fixed by adding more syrup. Three times I’ve gone in the evening and there has been absolutely no one in the bakery AT ALL for at least 3-5 minutes. I timed it. Twice I just left, the third time Christy came in from the back, I don’t know where she was because the person I was with had called out “hello?” pretty loudly multiple times and she didn’t come in like “sorry for the wait, I was in the back!” but seemed actively surprised we were there.

I don’t normally leave reviews, and I love a lot about this business and the entire rest of the team, but if I’m actively avoiding the business during certain hours because of Christy, I feel like there may be other people who avoid Homestead similarly, or never went back because they didn’t realize that Christy is the exception, not the standard. I don’t want anyone else wasting $15 on coffee they will probably throw out when they could go at a different time and get one of the best coffee of their life. If Di or Raven is on barista, it is worth every penny! And any day there are cookie butter cinnamon rolls or their rice crispy treats is a very good day.

To sum up: Great business, great food, bad employee ruins experience.
