Reviews of The Bankery, LLC Custom Cakes and Pastries (Bakery)

Steve Dodd

Awesome whoopie pies.

Cynthia Edmonds

The pumpkin cheesecake was delightful, but the Vanilla Dipper was dry. Cute setting, friendly staff. In a former bank setting.

Lyla Carlow

The staff were nice and helpful. And the desserts I purchased were delicious.

Donna Luongo

Love, love, love the Bankery!!! Our absolute favorite spot in Skowhegan!

Support a local Maine business. Delicious homemade food and baked goodies. Their cakes and pies are made from scratch and are the best around in the Skowhegan/Waterville area. Worth checking out even if your just passing by. Watch these bakers make fresh goods by hand while you check out the amazing variety!

The food is very good. Cakes r the best I've ever tasted, as are the scones. My issue is with being overcharged. This has happened to me at least 3 times. As much as I like the food I think I may stop giving them my business. My sister & I stop in a lot & get the half priced pastries. What happens is they often still charge u full price for the half priced stuff. U don't get a receipt unless u ask for one and then it's not itemized so u have no idea what u pay for individual items. This last time, yesterday, I once again paid then realized it was more than it should've been. I called & asked the prices of cream horns & scones. The woman confirmed the price & that I was charged full price for the cream horn. No apology or offer to refund. It's only 1.25, but if I wanted to pay full price I'd have gotten a fresh one, not the bargain ones. The most annoying thing is the woman who rang me up said "These are all the half priced items correct?" And still charged me full price, then didn't give me a receipt. I've been here a lot & try to save when I can because their prices r quite high. I know this has happened numerous times, but it's a bit embarassing to go back & complain about being overcharged & hold up the line. If I do get a big craving for a scone perhaps I will get ONE and only one, so I'll know what I am charged for that one item. Their pastries are quite good though and cakes are the best around. Just be aware if buying half priced items.

Everything you could want from a fancy City Bakery right in skowhegan. The flavors are always changing but the quality and service is always perfect. Best spot in town to order a special cake for your next occasion.

Everything is great. I make sure I stop whenever I go to Skowhegan.

Dee P

Delicious pastries! One of my favorite bakeries. They do custom order cakes as well.

Kathy King

Such a cute place, the building (an old bank) has so much character. The gingerbread men and pumpkin cheese cake were amazing !

Harvey Walters

Excellent variety of breads, cakes, and sweet bakery treats.

Susan Logan

The setting is actually an old bank - hence the name. Very interesting to look around. We ate lunch there, enjoying a delicious veggie flatbread and ouzo chicken salad, then got pastries (to die for) to go. Everything looked tempting, but from personal experience, I can highly recommend the scones and croissants

Jesse Reid-Oliver

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food!

robert miller

Best desserts around. Fast friendly staff.

Sandy Weston

Amazing!! The staff is awesome! It is in a unique location in downtown Skowhegan in an old bank and the way they have renovated the inside is gorgeous. Their choice of pastries are spectacular with yummy selection from raspberry cream horns to die-for croissants! They decorated their cakes expertly and use fresh, local ingredients.....YUM!! If you didn't know they were there, you're missing a treat!!!

Sara Poulin

Got my cake for the first time for my daughter's first birthday here! Absolutely wonderful Exquisite Artistry :-) we'll be back for every birthday for her in the future! Very satisfied :-)

This place has saved me many times!I love that I have options of more than just flowers to send for a special occasion.And.recently I was able to send a pastry/muffin platter and flowers to a friend who lost a loved one.

Valarie Trial

MACARONI SOUP TODAY WAS SCRUMPTIOUS!!

Erika Elizabeth

I travel 30 minutes just for treats from The Bankery. Just the right amount of sweet, such amazing creations! Highly recommend!!

Lynn Smith

The baked goods are incredible! So tasty and good. My only company is that they run out of things early in the day so I often can't get what I'm looking for. I live an hour and a half away. However, this doesn't change the fact that the food is absolutely scrumptious.

Jim Farley

The best. Great people. Never disappointed .

Very quaint atmosphere, and the pastries look as delicious as they taste! Definitely worth experiencing!

We have used the bankery on several occasions. The first photo is a flourless chocolate cake with triberry filling. The rest of the photos are our wedding cake and cupcakes. Everything has great taste and it's all decorated perfectly. Always fairly affordable. They also have great treats at the shop ready to go

Very nice business. Everyone there is so friendly. Great fresh flowers, nice house plants that can be ordered as well as delicious baked goods. I also enjoy the Stonewall Kitchen products that they have to offer. Skowhegan is so lucky to have a business like this in town!

Ransdall Luce

Great food and service

Tom kuklinski

I needed a cake for my parents 50th wedding anniversary and didn't live in the Skowhegan area any longer. I asked a few friends and they all said the Bankery did a very nice job and was reasonable in price. I called and told them what I wanted, my parents didn't want a fancy formal cake and they were married on Halloween. When I picked the cake up yesterday I was amazed. It was perfect, they knew what I wanted before I did! My parents loved the cake as did all of the guests. We got many compliments. It was also one of the tastiest cakes I have ever eaten. They helped make my parents special day even better!

W W W FreeWeed

Great place

Hannah Heidt

Good pastries and breakfast croissants; staff is always friendly and helpful. They take the time to remember their customers. The only fault is that I go there too late in the day when they've sold out of a lot of things!

Tom Poirier

Great pastries

Teresa Brown

Awesome breads, pies, cakes and pastries. A bit expensive, though.

Teresa Hills

Baked goods are heavenly!

Kirk MacKenzie

Try the brioche pretzels!

Kaitey L

I have gotten 3 custom cakes from them over this past year.... none have tasted all that good, dry and flavorless. I keep trying them in hopes it was just the flavor choices but this last one just sealed the deal for me that they just don't taste good. They also spelled my son's name wrong on his cake. We've tried and tried but we're at the point of going elsewhere from now on.

Jeannette Seward

Pretty confections but all I could taste was sugar.

William Connor

Can't find any fault.........GREAT place

Tara Chadbourne

Yum! Great treats......Great Service!

I've always gone to the bakery (everything is incredible), but I only recently realized that the fleuriste has great gifts! I picked up stocking stuffers, and a small holiday ceramic, plus they made a beautiful arrangement for it on the spot.

Nicole Carter

Great local cheese!

Douglas Cotta

Fantastic food

candice patrick

The frosting is crusty and sugery cake was moist on inside but crusty on top. Will try something else next time but not cupcakes again.

Jerson Malaguit

It's hard not to like this place. If there's something you crave in particular, come early to increase your probability of getting it, as they don't seem to replenish their stock as the day progresses.

Carla Newbegin

drove from pa to get cakes made for shower in caribou can not tell you how beautiful they are

Amy Price

Love everything they make!!!

Jamie Hyde

Love their feta and spinach croissants!

Jody Fitzmaurice

An unexpected find on my recent trip, one of only two places I could find for breakfast that wasn't fast food, and it was FANTASTIC!

Mari Jo Allen

Have gone to and had many baked goods from The Bankery, so when it came time to order a 60th birthday cake for a very dear friend, I looked to them for the cake. BIG MISTAKE! I went to their website and chose a cake from their pictures. I made some changes and I paid nearly $150 for the cake. I was extremely disappointed. The cakes looked nothing like the picture and the almond cake was dry enough to have been a week old. I won't be back!!!

Jeremy I Hills

I am totally impressed with the great job the fine folks here did with my daughter's birthday cake! I can not thank or recommend them enough!!!! Anyone looking for a cake or pastries, as well as other items should absolutely stop in and check out The Bankery on the rotary in Skowhegan Maine. You can look them up on Google for a list of hours as well as menu items and prices. Just awesomeness in a box and great friendly and knowledgeable staff who are happy too serve up excellence! Thank you Bankery for a great cake and memories!!!

Susan Guerin-Staples

They made the cake for my daughter's wedding this weekend and did a phenomenal job. My daughters cake had graphic representations of special moments in their lives, first date, proposal, etc. The artist painted these images on the side of the cakes. Absolutely incredible. I wish I were able to share a photo of her cake. And it tasted delicious!

Jason Biedinger

Friendly people, good provinpricing, clean environment, order messed up occasionally.

Was intrigued by the "maple bacon cupcakes", having heard of bacon as a flavoring. However, the only bacon was a crumble on top, and the frosting was sickly sweet on a plain yellow cupcake. Tried the m&m cookies, and there was too much salt for my taste - noticeably more than 'other' similar cookies. Perhaps they're of the school that thinks salt enhances sweet flavors, but there was way too much. Not at all impressive.

Wayne Briggs

I love the cake and home made bread. It is delicious and the staff is friendly great location and free parking

244 Main

Nice place with upscale quality and detail. Unfortunately, the kids were not fond of their buttercream and would only eat the cake part.

Joe Schmidt

Love the great sweet treats!

Heidi Batchelder

I love their cakes, but last two times I have ordered my cakes weeks ahead of time and when I go to pick them up they where not ready that seems to be the only down fall

Penny Petrucelli

Excellent food. Everything I have ever tried has been amazing. Friendly helpful staff as well

K Rinaldi

Pastries that you just can't find around the area! Cake decorating that is a marvel to watch!

Anton Yudin

Great pastries, soups and pretzels!

patricia marcus

Pastries are amazing. Coffee is yummy, too!

jennifer bergeron

I've never been disappointed in the cakes or cupcakes I've gotten here. They are always delicious and are the most beautifully decorated in the area. I recently ordered a cake the same day (which I wouldn't recommend doing!) and thankfully, they were able to accommodate my request. The cake was great, and fabulous as always.

Hippie Chick

We love the bankery!

Ashley Geoghegan

We had a small cutting cake made here for our wedding. It was vegan (we requested that, they have other options) and so delicious! A lot of the time vegan cakes are dry and this was certainly as good as any cake I've had with or without dairy. Also, it was beautiful! I asked for a pretty specific design and flower colors and they did such an excellent job, I couldn't be more pleased! I wish I lived closer so we could try some of their other baked goods!

Jonathan Stewart

Always nothing but the best breads, pastries and cakes. Absolutely fabulous and friendly service! Highly recommend stopping by for a visit if you find yourself in Skowhegan.

Thomas Coutu

Very over priced, food is poor quality !!!!!

Derek Price

This is the best bakery in Maine. The food is unparalleled and the owners are delightful.

clockophony

The desserts and meat pies are nice. No public restroom.

Jarrett Dottin

I can not say enough about how great this place was- they did our cake and it was out of this world. People raved about it- not to mention the whoopie pies, and the mexican cookies they did as well. Yum Yum Yum!

Joell O'Malley

Delicious every time!
