She really listened to what we wanted and helped us create the perfect cake for our day—a delicious spice cake with buttercream frosting that was beautifully made and delivered right on time.

“The pastries were excellent!! They clearly sell out fast - we visited twice and the first day we showed up an hour after opening to a very limited remaining selection. The croissants had excellent flavor and a really nice textural contrast between the exterior and interior. I tried a number of pastries and think a must-try is the artichoke croissant. If I were local I’d be here all the time!“

“We drive almost 3 hours to visit. Bluebird Bakery is one of the main reasons. The pies are to die for. I love the apple and my gf loves the coconut cream. It’s also a great lunch spot. Always a pleasure!!“

These brownies are delicious!! Lots of different flavors to choose from too!! Though we live out of town, we are happy buckabee brownies ship!! So yummy!!! Light and fluffy“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oakley Crumbl is hands down one of my favorite stops! Their Dr. Pepper dirty soda (with cherry, vanilla, and heavy cream) is absolute perfection—it’s my go-to every time. And the cookies? Amazing doesn’t even begin to cover it. We’ve honestly never tried a flavor we didn’t love. Every week feels like a new treat and they never disappoint. So glad to have this spot close by!“

“I shop at Davis Cookie Collection every week and it just keeps getting better. The flavors are out of this world! I seriously haven’t had a single one I didn’t like. Even the flavors I thought I wouldn’t enjoy, she somehow made me fall in love with. That’s how good these cookies are.

On top of that, the customer service is exceptional. The owner is warm, welcoming, and truly passionate about what she does. You can feel the love and care in every cookie and every interaction.

This place is a gem. If you're a cookie lover or even if you're not, you need to try it. You’ll be hooked!“

“Delicioso pan. Se los recomiendo muchísimo“

“This is a hidden gem in the Gaslight district that I found recently. They consistently have 4 different vegan options, including one savory pastry. These are literally the best vegan French pastries I’ve ever had and I’ve traveled from the East to West Coast— you won’t be disappointed! Updated from previous review on 2025-11-02“

“Like eating a piece of heaven!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ North South Baking has the BEST Rhubarb Jam Filled Cruffins in all of Northern Kentucky — hands down! If you haven’t tried them yet, do yourself a favor and go ASAP. The flavor is unreal — perfectly balanced, flaky, and filled with that tangy-sweet jam that hits just right. Beyond the incredible pastries, the customer service is absolutely stellar. The staff makes you feel like family the moment you walk through the door. They’re kind, welcoming, and passionate about what they do — and that energy is contagious. This place has created lifelong memories for me, not just because of the food, but because of the people. North South Baking is a true gem. 💛🍓🥐“

“Thank you Makers Bakers for our amazing wedding cake! It was absolutely delicious and gorgeous! The best carrot cake I’ve ever had, as well as the top layer of red velvet cake! Your cream cheese icing is like having a piece of cheesecake! So delicious!!!!! Thank you so much! Our guests were very happy and we had very little left over! It was perfection!!!!“

“My dill and feta biscuit had great texture but didn't have the strongest flavor. Sweet and savory pastries are available as well as a good selection of breads. This is a grab and go space only, but they have a cafe down the street where you can sit inside and enjoy your items.“

“Hand pies are amazing! Flaky, buttery crust with chicken pot pie filling!“

“We came for the afternoon tea and was so nice! I didn’t realize it was a group experience with other tables also there for the tea but it was really a good time. I enjoyed that we were given a brief history of the house, the atmosphere was so good. I loved that there was also live music with someone playing a keyboard in the background, great touch! Highly recommend!“

“Did the Macaron class at the Short North location today and it was fantastic!!“

“I placed an order for my daughter's birthday cake and they did an fantastic job. We found a picture of a cake my daughter wanted for her birthday and they were able to make it at an affordable price under $40. I called other local bakeries and was quoted $95 and up and another place quoted me $125. Thank you all for making beautiful affordable cakes. The cake was a delicious strawberry flavor and we will be returning in the future for other birthday cakes.“

“Boba tea in various flavors for $5 - taro, lavender.... Cheaper than advertised! We also got some nice little cookies and sweet or savory buns. The cakes looked wonderful and the bakery smelled delicious! They had tiramisu and several other cake options.“

“Did the Macaron class at the Short North location today and it was fantastic!!“

“Best key lime gooey butter cake ever. Thank a bunch.“

“Could not recommend this place more. My mother-in-law ordered a two tier cake for my wedding this year and to say it turned out perfect is an understatement. From beginning to end the professionalism from everyone was incredible. Kim is an absolute super star and made the process go so smoothly. Little Flour truly made my wedding cake so special and it was delicious as well! The decorations were gorgeous, and the extra effort they put into setting the cake up with the topper and macaroons at the reception hall was very appreciated. Do yourself a favor and order from here!!“

“Loved the brownies!! We had peanut butter, double chocolate, and biscoff. They were delicious! 😋“

“The cake and cupcakes were gorgeous and tasted delicious“

“Thank you…thank you. It’s perfect. I said “winter” theme and you all killed it. I drove 40 mins this am because the cake is always worth it. ❤️❤️“

“I love that this location is open on Mondays! Busken's Plain Danish is my husband's favorite pastry, and they often sell out early in the AM. I wanted to surprise him with some before he has a long week, and this location was open on Mondays. 🙂 The employee who helped me was so warm & kind. A great way to start the week!“

“We celebrated my granddaughters 6th birthday there. They were so kind with her. I fell in love with the bakery, so much in fact, I dropped off a cupcake diamond art picture in hopes they could find a spot to hang it there. Love the atmosphere and the food!“

“Received a bag of peanut butter dog cookies as a gift. My dog loves them!

I've since ordered a three pack. Shipping was fast and easy. Each bag of cookies is personally signed by the individual who baked/packed them.

Each purchase supports this charity which encourages collaboration and skill building among the staff.

I love the idea of how they bake these treats from spent grains from local craft breweries. A healthy snack for my pup and great gift idea for dog lovers.“

“We drive the hour for their donuts as they are just that good! The chocolate icing is the best around. Last Friday I got to try the cherry bombs and apple cinnamon sugar donut and those are also so amazing. We’ve had their bread and danishes in the past and guess what? Also amazing 😊 only place we get donuts at anymore“

“Amazing cakes, cookies, and pastries and we've always been greeted with friendly service. Servatii is our go-to bakery.“

“5 stars all the way!
I ordered custom cookies for a graduation celebration, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations! Not only were they beautifully decorated and perfectly on theme, but they were also delicious-soft, fresh, and full of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back for future events! Highly recommend!“

“This was my first time here, and it didn't disappoint. I was told about Buskins, and I was hoping it was all it was hyped up to be. First, we were greeted immediately by the staff! I ended up getting a dozen doughnuts, loaf of onion rye, and a double butter cake. I was in heaven, at least until I hit the scale!“

“Ever since I was little we loved to stop here and get an order of zwieback to have at home. We stopped in and ordered some a few days ago and it’s still so good all these years later! We also got some smiley face cookies that my nieces loved. We love the Cookie Jar!“
