Jacquelyn's Bakeshop & Cafe

Didn’t know this place was here until my family went bowling on a rainy Saturday afternoon. My 2 year old was finishing some chicken nuggets and we had a few min until the bowling alley opened, so my husband and I decided to go in and check it out. Their sign is very difficult to read. I didn’t know what to think when walking in. It was just chaotic. Stuff everywhere. The sales counter was cluttered and nothing was in any logical order. I had expected to see some bakery cases with cookies and cupcakes and things since it’s a big shop, but instead, they just had some prepackaged things out on the counter. Only 3 cupcake flavors, which were pre-boxed. Only 2 cookie flavors. The menu was very difficult to read and didn’t have photos of any items. I ordered a lunch salad, which came out with maybe 1/4 of a pear and 1 TBSP of blue cheese on top of some spinach. Not appetizing looking. My husband’s wrap came out wrapped in paper. They didn’t give us plates or silverware. His latte was sickeningly sweet and so were our cookies. Both tasted like straight up sugar. There was a man (I assume an employee) asleep on a loveseat in the dining area— weird. And when the employee brought our food out, she very curtly told us that our 2 year old’s lunch wasn’t allowed. We left. Threw our sad looking lunch and sugar puck cookies in the trash. Won’t be back. Just because somewhere is local doesn’t mean it’s good.

I ordered a custom 6” cake - vanilla w/Choc buttercream ( we added the toy story toppers) kinda last minute and the shop was very kind and accommodating to make this for us on short notice. The cake was moist and buttercream frosting was delicious! I’ll definitely order another cake from here next time we need one! (Hopefully with more notice) 😂

Jacquelyn made the most delicious wraps, strawberry-candied pecans-spinach salad cupcakes for my cousin's bridal shower. She went over and beyond making sure we had our order prepared for a 3 hour drive to our party. It was our family's first time getting back together in almost 2 years and the wonderful food made it extra special.
