    The food was delicious. The venue is beautiful. Service was very slow although the restaurant was half full. Drinks took forever. Our server was sweet, however, she brought our food and disappeared. Never saw her again until 10 minutes after we were done eating to check in to see if we needed anything. She gave a sweet birthday pixie dust wish to my granddaughter. Overall it was a very nice experience.

    This place has been incredibly hyped for years, and my mom and I have talked about visiting for a very long time. We were so excited to finally make the trip to come visit for a special mother/daughter lunch. Unfortunately, we were very underwhelmed with the entire experience. While it was pretty inside, that did not make up for the slow service, super cramped seating situation, overpriced menu, and sub-par food and coffee. This place could really use some love and attention to detail to help revive it and live up to the Instagram hype.

    It was the 1st time at Cake Bake for myself and a dear friend who is just finishing up chemo. I asked our amazing server Gigi to help celebrate my friend being cancer free. Gigi and the staff went above and beyond. They brought out balloons and a card and made my friend feel like the queen she is. The food and ambience was amazing. We were both touched at the service and attention we received. Thank you Gigi and Cake Bake. Can't wait to come back! Detra and Jenny🩷

    5 Stars – A Sweet Valentine’s Treat! I stopped by Cake Bake Shop on Valentine’s Day, and it was absolutely magical! The atmosphere was beautifully decorated, creating the perfect romantic setting. The cakes were not only stunning but also incredibly delicious—each bite was rich, moist, and full of flavor. The staff was warm and welcoming, making the experience even more special. Whether you’re celebrating love or just treating yourself, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend for anyone with a sweet tooth!
