Community Bakery - Iced americano with milk & hot americano - Bakeries Near Me - Little Rock, Arkansas

Absolutely awesome. Arrived just after the opened and everyone was just so friendly. Mrs. K. wasn't up for breakfast, so I enjoyed their "Ciabatta" which is a breakfast sandwich with sausage and egg and cheese and spinach and tomato. A quick dab of some hot sauce and it went from five stars to six stars. My hot coffee was hot and perfectly caffeinated to last the rest of the day. But the standout? The chai tea. Mrs. K. pronounced it the very best chai tea that she has ever had. Just the right amount of cinnamon dust on top of the roamed milk with a nicely spicy and creamy hot tea underneath. It was amazing. Thank you! Oh and the "Woo pig sooie" icing on the cookies? Awesome! WPS! [Review 2262 of 2024 - 358 in Arkansas - 23279 overall] read more

I loved going here when I once lived in LR, and was so happy to see it still open! Great bakery items! ...their bagel with salmon was weak, though. Still, much love.. read more

Kind of a let down because I'd heard good things. We got a couple of seasonal coffee drinks- one was overly sweet, one was just bland. The apple cinnamon roll looked great, but was raw in the middle so inedible (didn't realize until eating it after we left). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bathroom was out of toilet paper and was down right gross.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The glazed donut was pretty good, though! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice and well located spot in Little Rock.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is very roomie and has plenty of space for anyone that wants to get work done that doesn't like noise of a coffee shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The workers here are very nice and personable which is always a plus in my opinion to keep coming back. I didn't try much, but the coffee was amazing, they have seasonal drinks to keep you on your toes. Everything is freshly baked in house! read more

Got the build your own Sammy Very good..but they don't tell you how much each piece is to add.... So ours was $8.+ $11.+ for croissants , sausage, cheese and one with avocado. Basic Sammy with croissant, bacon egg and cheese is $6+ so why so much up to switch out bacon for sausage? And sausages was tinyyyyy. Good but pricey. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute lil place, I liked the local artists pieces hung on the wall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The display cases with the doughnuts should have been lit up. Too dark.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Coffees was good I got sugar-free vanilla with almond milk, asked for a small and was given and charged for a large. read more

I have been going here since the 90s and the quality has not changed a bit. I stopped in for some sweet things and none disappointed. I will be back for the cafe soon. read more

The cupcakes were horrible tasting. Somewhat of a chemical taste. The person helping us had walked off after I paid & I realized that they charged me for coffee that we didn't get. The cookies (Valentines)were very bland. Disappointed because last time everything was good. read more

Pricey but good pastries. Cookies are great! Good selection. We were visiting from out of town and wanted sweets.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, but cleanliness is a serious issue[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've visited this bakery several times over the past month while in Little Rock on business trips from Houston. My first impression was overwhelmingly positive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place had a steady stream of customers--a good sign--and the baked goods appeared fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was especially impressed by their spicy turkey panini, which is hands-down one of the best I've ever had. Unfortunately, my positive perception took a sharp turn due to one glaring issue: cleanliness. [[HIGHLIGHT]]During a visit yesterday, I was craving one of their petit fours--until I noticed flies crawling around inside the display case, and directly on top of the cookies and pastries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Disturbingly, the staff behind the counter seemed oblivious to this unsanitary situation. I reluctantly settled for the turkey panini, hoping the food prep area in the back was held to a higher standard. The sandwich, once again, was excellent--if you can manage to put aside the nagging concerns about hygiene. I returned this evening hoping it was a one-off experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While I didn't spot any flies this time (perhaps I didn't want to look too hard), I did witness an employee behind the counter cleaning up for closing--at the same counter that had flies the day before.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After wiping something off the floor, the employee proceeded to assist me without washing their hands. I hesitated to place an order, hoping someone else would help me. But no one else came. I eventually ordered a few cookies and a cupcake--much less than I had planned, as I had hoped to bring back a box of pastries on my flight home. To their credit, the employee did put on gloves before boxing my order--but only after handling the box liner with unwashed hands. [[HIGHLIGHT]]That, paired with the fly issue from the day before, completely overshadowed the great food and initial positive impression.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cleanliness is not optional--especially in food service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I sincerely recommend that management reinforce basic food safety and hygiene practices with staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]With better attention to cleanliness, this could easily be a four-star spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Until then, two stars feels appropriate. read more

I got old cheese cake. You could tell it was old. Dry and hard. I ate a few bits. Thought it was me But it was very old so do not by the cookie butter one. Very gross and old read more

I went to community bakery on Main Street and I ordered petit fors and cupcakes and cookies and all of it was hard dried out and old. I complained and came back the following day and at 11 and the same was there with more added. I spoke with the manager Heather abt it and she was rude very push off like she wanted me to just go and and I've never experienced that rudeness ever at that location and been coming for years and my deceased mother and family has worked there years ago. It was awful and the manager Heather has a rude attitude and didn't even get rid of the old stuff just walked off and resumed so rudely. But a worker took them out and said she would be putting fresh ones in there no thanks to the manager Heather. Check your receipt also because the girl from the evening before overcharged me by a couple of dollars as well. read more

I want to give this place a 4.5 stars! Community does everything great! They are a staple in the community. My favorite treats are their petit fours and their birthday cakes. Yellow sheet cake with white icing is simple but to die for and definitely the best I've had in Arkansas. Their service is also top notch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their downtown location has a nice dining area as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't recommend them enough read more

I stumbled across Community Bakery when I was visiting this past weekend. I got an iced caramel macchiato and the goat cheese turkey panini and both were fantastic. I bought some Christmas tree cookies and a lemon clamshell as well. The cookies were amazing and the cake was still delicious and moist days later. Every worker I interacted with was super nice. I would absolutely go back if I find myself in Little Rock again! read more

Soooo many options here! Love a good ol' iced americano to balance out all the sweet goodness they offer! Kind service, wish I got the guy's name because he deserves a shoutout. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Luckily we went in when it wasn't too busy but I can tell the place gets packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Window table made for perfect people watching![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

They have yet to honor my "no tomato" request when I order my sandwich. There is always a tomato. Luckily I'm not allergic. The service overall seems fine, although have the staff seem like they don't want to work there. The bakery is delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is historical, will likely never change.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Bad location, overpriced. Allergy free and lots of sugar. Food is mostly tasty. Breads are dense.

Bad morale of the workers. Very blatant and rude for a customer who tipped 20% and spent 30 dollars on breakfast for one. A smile goes a long way. read more

The bear claw was way too sweet. Ham and cheese croissant was not baked long enough so the taste and texture was underwhelming. The barista acted like he was doing me a favor instead of saying thanks Wanted to like this place but it's way overpriced for what you get. Two coffee beverages and two pastries were $24. Way too expensive for the quality. This is Little Rock but this place has San Francisco prices minus the quality SF offerings. This review isn't personal but our honest experience. read more

Wonderful selections, seasonal baked goods and custom orders. We drop in at least once a week. Best guy-Halbert!!! Give him a shout out. He's got a great outgoing personality. read more

My lovely bride and I stopped in on Sunday morning, the day before the solar eclipse. We needed some fuel after walking around the Argenta and Quapaw neighborhoods. We can vouch for the cheesecake and the key lime pie. Wide selection of bakery goodies. The Americano is a strong, black cup of coffee. Highly recommended. read more

I'm originally from Arkansas but live in Ohio. Normally stop here for French silk pie. Stopped here yesterday around 6pm just for the pie. My 3 daughters wanted about $20 in cookies and pastries. Last thing I requested was my slice of pie. They told me I couldn't have a slice but had to purchase the entire pie. Extremely disappointed, guess I'll be headed back to Ohio w/o French Silk. read more

Great selection. The staff is very friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A really cool place in the heart of Little Rock.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

my husband ordered a cake for my 30th birthday. it was supposed to be lemon with lemon curd and strawberries. at first glance it turned out cute. he had a little ball of yarn and crochet hook added which was adorable but then i noticed that they misspelled my name. frustrating but not a huge deal. until we cut into the cake... the cake had 3 layers with no frosting in between. 2 layers were off white and one was bright yellow (yellow on the bottom, not like stripes). the frosting was thick and dense and tasted only like powdered sugar. the layers of not-lemon curd and smuckers strawberry jelly were very thin and you couldn't taste them. the frosting was PEELING off of the cake. maybe we caught them on a bad day but i'm not willing to drop $110 on another completely inedible hunk of garbage again. my husbands emails concerning a refund were ignored and he had to call twice to get them to agree to give us our money back. read more

Continues to have amazing quality bakery items. I appreciate seeing that since my last visit (a while ago!) they now accept American Express cards. The staff is friendly and helpful in answering questions. I also appreciate that they help those in the community in need. A great business- whenever I am on vacation in Little Rock I will be sure to stop by when going for a drink at Rock Town Distillery read more

Never, ever again ... the order online software is worthless and the folks who are downloading the data from said software apparently don't know how to count... when someone orders three of one item for pickup at the WLR location at midnight and only one of said items shows up.. you have a problem.. order was ready for pickup at requested time, but notification that the order was ready for pickup came 90 minutes later - and AFTER the order had been picked up... Further, community kept the money for not fulfilled order with no offer at pickup to issue a credit... terrible way to do business, would like to believe this is an isolated incident, but this is the third year in a row that we've experienced some kind of service issue with community... we will not try it again. If I could give a negative number review, I would.. read more

Local place in Little Rock that i frequented on my weekend visiting. I was a regular- drip coffee was delicious, tried several kinds of baked goods- doughnut, muffin, danish, pop tart and they were all outstanding. service was quick and kind and I would wholly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for baked goods, coffee or simply a place to hang out for a bit. Oh yeah- lots of locals frequented this establishment and that is always a good sign!! read more

Went to the bakery again this morning. I previously left 2 negative reviews. This morning the donuts were much better as was the customer service. Thanks to management for listening. read more

Great local spot! Next to all the shops and farmers market, I usually get a coffee before walking the strip. The baked bread is great to take home. The place is always clean and the staff is friendly. Super affordable, SHOP LOCAL! Love Community Bakery. read more

I always try to find local businesses to support when travel. When looking for a place to buy some yummy treats, Community Bakery popped up. I almost wish I hadn't discovered it because I am definitely going to have to visit here every time I come to town. Better schedule some more steps in my day. Got several dozen treats to share. Everyone said they were delicious! The staff working were all smiling and cheerful. Definitely check this place out if you want some yummy treats! read more

Editing my review as the owner responded almost immediately to my initial review- the only complaint I'd had was completely addressed. I love the food from community bakery, and it's literally just down the street from me, the drive through is convenient. They stay busy during peak hours for a good reason, you really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. I'm a fan of their breakfast sandwiches, biscuits and gravy, smoothies, coffee drinks and baked goods (try a pop tart). They have indoor and outdoor seating with very much a neighborhood feel and if you're from Little Rock, you might run into someone you know. If you're in from out of town, this is great place for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack- they have takeout and delivery available via the toast app. read more

All the usual great bakery items, like croissants, petit fours, etc. This trip was to get a cream cheese King Cake during Marci Gras. It was delicious & as good as any we had in Louisiana. So glad to find that they had them. read more

Excellent place for lunch and baked goods. There's pretty much any baked good you could ever think of, and it was all delicious. The reason it isn't getting more stars is for service. The man who took my order got it wrong 2 times. And then I watched him pick up a pastry and put it back into the case when I told him it was wrong. Ladies who were making lunch also took forever. I waited 25 min for my panini. Free wifi, plenty of parking, and a drive through. read more

Love their cookie selection paninis and coffee. Their lunch menu is good . They need more organization and new worker training for the counter staff . read more

Great pastries but the service leaves a lot to be desired. One rude worker refused to help me with my pre-placed online order.....when someone finally paid me any attention minutes later, not only was my order not ready, but it was wrong when I finally did receive it. Won't be back. read more

It really saddens me to leave a bad review... This used to be my favorite place to sit and have coffee or get a pasty (pre Covid)... However, the customer services has really began to fail.. If you go to the drive thru 5 people walk past the window and not check on you.. If you come in they have very dry unpleasant attitudes :( Owner needs to speak with his team about customer service, if they don't want to work they should go home... The customers don't need to know! AND BRING BACK THE BOURBON COFFEE read more
