    We passed this shop on our way to the car and decided to pop in being my son-in-law was craving something sweet. He opted for a rice crispy treat and was extremely satisfied with his choice. I selected the lemon crinkle cookie and an oatmeal coconut chocolate chip cookie. We also purchased two chocolate chip cookies for my Mom and a package of cinnamon sugar pecans. The bakery was adorable and very affordable. The total for everything was $11. I really appreciate that they sell small cookies because it allows those of us who are counting calories the opportunity to try more than one on a visit. The cookies I selected were delicious and the pecans were good too. Although, there's nothing like freshly made pecans warm out of the skillet. The coffee selection appeared to be good but we had already started the day at a neighboring coffee shop. We'll have to enjoy a latte on our next visit. Finally, the customer service was excellent. Even our fellow patrons were friendly!

    Quiche

    Stopped in for breakfast on a recent Saturday morning. We ordered the quiche Loraine, waffle with fresh strawberries, a lemon muffin, an espresso, and a cappuccino. The quiche was delicious, very light with a flaky crust. The waffle was pretty average, wouldn't recommend. The lemon muffin was warm and fresh. Coffees were good. The sitting area was clean and nicely decorated. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Would definitely visit again if we make it back to Mt Dora.

    It's funny how I was just saying last year's Xmas event was cold. This confirms it because my review last year of this place included hot chocolate. It was hot this year so we did not have hot chocolate. I ordered a raspberry, chocolate cream cheese angel bar. It was good but it was a little rich and a bit cold so hard to break apart. We ate it up nonetheless and for $5 something that was a good size to split. My husband also loves his key west frozen chocolate covered key lime pie. It's across the street at Julianne's Coastal Cottage. So both of these stops are a must stop every time and conveniently located across from each other. There's a bunch of tables and chairs inside and out. So when we want to be inside, in a/c resting our feet, this place always comes to mind.

    There are 3 things I'm not a huge fan of - walnuts, figs, and scones. So, naturally, on my first visit to the lovely Allyson in Mount Dora I ordered a fig and walnut scone. This absolutely delightful bakery features homemade baked goods and delicious coffee. There are lovely servers here and I even got to meet the owner. Get here early (and often) and don't be surprised if there is a small line eager to get hold of lemon bars, cupcakes, quiche, muffins, and meltaways. Definitely try their seasonal coffee flavors - my apple pie latte was SCRUMPTIOUS! Oh, the scone? Absolutely perfect. I loved the flavor combination and would both order it again AND recommend it to another. See you again soon, Allyson. Like, tomorrow morning soon.

    Love the foam art on my hot mocha

    Coffee in a ceramic mug? We had to ask and go through a bit of a process, but it was nice to sit outside on a beautiful Sunday morning while waiting for the local shops to open in Mt. Dora. The hot mocha was good but could have used a bit more mocha for my taste. They gotta get with it with the foam art though... the heart on mine looked more like a bladder. Speaking of bladders, if you need to use the restroom, you'll need to ask for a key and venture down the maze of a hallway to a tiny room just big enough to do your business.

    Super cute bake shop in downtown Mount Dora! I came in and got a cold brew with cream on the side. The cold brew was the strongest cold brew I've ever had and was quite bitter tasting. I did put a lot of cream in to try to get rid of the bitterness. I'm going to give this bake shop 4/5 stars just because I wasn't crazy over the cold brew. I definitely wanna come back and try another coffee drink and maybe a pastry!

    Lemon Blueberry Bar

    They have a lot of delicious pastries to choose from and I ended up ordering the lemon blueberry bar ($4.75) along with a medium latte for my drink ($5.25). Other hot drinks available include cappuccino, espresso, americano, hot chocolate, hot tea, and roasted coffee. The lemon bar was very tasty with the blueberries being the main contributor and the lemon glaze a nice touch for an overall very enjoyable flavor. What fell short was the fact it was cold (obviously had been refrigerated) which created a rather hard bar to cut with a fork. Thinking back I wish I would have asked the friendly employee to warm it up, or better, it would have been nice if they would have asked me if I would have liked it to be warmed up...but I didn't, and they didn't, so that's that. The latte was very good and hot. There's plenty of indoor seating with perimeter tables and a center bar / long table in the middle. There's also outdoor seating on the sidewalk area in front. The employees I interacted with were nice, polite, and friendly.

    Huge chocolate chip cookie.
    Bill W.

    Just had a chocolate chip cookie. But, a rather large cookie and it was $4.50. Having sold cookies for a living decades ago, I learned that most people like soft and chewy cookies. This cookie was soft and chewy. The value was ok by today's standards for cookies, especially when you take into account the size. Today was one of Mt. Dora's big street events and so the case of sweets were full! Other visits I've walked out as they were already sold out. So, maybe I should take a star off, but not today. It was a very nice CC cookie and the staff were on their best behavior. Also, the store is clean and very nice.

    Great little shop with a homestyle feeling. Pastries are very sweet. The coffee is excellent. The people here provide great service and are willing to accommodate your preferences in coffee. We especially liked how clear it is inside. Thank you Allyson A for a wonderful experience.

    Easy 9 out of 10. Allyson's is a perennial favorite on our occasional Sunday trips climbing Mt. Dora. Lol Must all of the confecions have been delicious and the coffee is always enjoyable.

    This is a very cute clean space in downtown Mount Dora. I got a few different things. My dad loved the lemon bar and the St. Louis bar. I loved the cheddar jalapeño scone and the sausage muffin. Their pastries are all good but the savory baked goods are were they really shine. The woman that helped me was very nice and explained the best way to heat up my muffin later. I will be heading back there often.

    Whenever I am in Mount Dora, this is one of my many stops. I love getting a baked good from here along with a latte or tea. Recently, I tried their matcha tea which was good, I really wanted hot chocolate but they ran out. It was all god though, they have a good selection of drinks. I also got the bacon cheese scone, which was good but it was a bit salty for my taste. They do have other yummy baked goods. The service is always great and I absolutely love how cozy it is indoors. They do have outdoor seating, if you prefer to sit outside. Overall, great place to visit.

    Stopped by for a drink and scone and it did not disappoint! Staff are friendly and welcoming! So many choices for bakery and sweet! I got a large chai latte with orange scone! They were so good! The decors are chic and modern. Will definitely come again

    Do they make key lime pies?

    They have a key lime pie cupcake, I'm sure they could make a pie for you.

    Le Petit is the best, look no further! We recently ordered our 3 tiered wedding cake from them…read more(each tier was a different flavor), the cake and fillings was amazing and the best I've ever had. I truly wished I lived in Mount Dora as I would use them for all my events. We had Strawberry Champagne, Chocolate Praline, and Coconut Caramel...everything was so delicious. I am also happy that they offer a deal to purchase a cake from them on your one year anniversary, it gave us the opportunity to offer all flavors to guest and we in turn will get a freshly made cake. We are looking forward to coming back to this amazing baker. Le Petit was very accommodating to us for our tasting since we were a destination wedding and our time during wedding things were limited to our visits made to the area, the tasting went so smoothly and they truly made it hard to narrow down to only 3 flavors since all of them tasted great. Thank you Le Petit for the cake of our dreams.
