Smh, we moved here in 2018, but only discovered this bakery this year and we're moving away next month to Williamsburg, VA. The goods here taste lighter and fresher than the Pennsylvania Bakery in Camp Hill where goods are more dense or covered in too much frosting. My son loves the lemon bar here.

Absolutely love Raising the Bar! The tomato and herb croissant is so delicious. They’re always super friendly anytime we go in too! Definitely a little gem in Harrisburg!

Favorite Bakery while working in Harrisburg. I buy extra to take to friends and coworkers. Sometimes they make it , sometimes they don't.

Stopped in for a quick treat as I always pass by. I purchased a jar of honey for my home lattes and a chocolate croissant. The croissant is sooo buttery and flakey but not annoyingly flakey. There was so much flavor packed into the pastry. Can't wait to go back.

Just had one of the best breakfasts of my life and I feel obligated to say that Raising the Bar is phenomenal. Probably one of my favorite businesses here in Harrisburg. They hit the mark on everything between quality, taste, customer service, and a cozy interior. Thank you for making my new favorite croissants and breakfast sandwiches!

A must stop if you’re ever in the area IMO. AMAZING food, especially their breakfast sandwiches. Some of the best croissants I’ve ever had in my life. The owners are super friendly as well which is always a nice bonus.

Went in on a very busy day a little late in the morning for goodies for my office. They were running low due to it being a little later, but put together random boxes of a dozen delicious baked goods. In the boxes were lemon bars 10/10, scone 10/10, chai bars 10/10, an oatmeal bake thing 1,000,000/10, THE MOST DELICIOUS BROWNIE I HAVE EVER TASTED 100,000,000/10, another yummy brownie deal with walnuts and maybe cream cheese? 1,000,000,000,000/10. Oh, I also got a breakfast sandwich for myself with some kind of jam and egg on a sweet bread, I don’t ask I just eat.

Can’t get these pastries out of my head. This will be a regular thing for me to stop by “for the office”.

This is hands down the finest bakery. The croissants are as good as or better than any I've had (including those in Paris). The scones are scrumptious. The breads are exceptional. You can't go wrong with anything you may try and the service is always outstanding.

Love love love this bakery! I try new items all the time and have never been disappointed. We buy enough baked goods at 8am on Saturday to get us through the weekend. The owners are super nice and extremely talented bakers who love their clientele.

Holy scrumptiousness!! I visited Raising the Bar this past Saturday and I will be going back for sure. First off, it’s a really cute place and the service and people were so friendly! The best part was the croissants! I had an almond one (ate the entire thing), moved on to share a chocolate one with a friend and stole a piece of my hubby’s plain just to taste of course… soooo delicious! Highly recommend. I also took some pumpkin cheesecake home with me and I can say it did not disappoint! Yummmm is all i can say!
