Tres leches
Jastina C.

When I want a unique variety choices for Mexican desserts, I go here. Especially after picking up tacos from wichos next door. They have flan, chocolate flan, rice pudding, tres leches etc. the people are very nice and it's actually a bakery so that is their specialty with a plethora of items to choose from. I got the chocolate tres leches and tres leches and I couldn't decide which I enjoyed more so ate both.

I had seen some friends had reviewed this place and since I know my wife really likes crispy Mexican pastries, I persuaded her to ride with me to try it out. She headed on in while I was still in the parking lot. She grabbed the standard tongs and metal tray (standard for a Panaderia anyway) and was soon hunting the shelves for her favorites. Most are behind sliding glass doors, but some were still sitting on racks waiting to be added. Check out had a slight delay, but was minimal. They have a wide variety of pastries to choose from including some I was not familiar with. They also sell hot coffee, beverages, snacks, and do have whole cakes as well. As far as quality, the flavors were really good. Maybe because it was late morning, the texture was a bit chewy. The crispy ones were still flaky, but there was a definite bite required to get through them like they had been sitting out a bit. I also ordered one with jelly and the jelly that was visible on the outside was the only jelly the pastry had. It may be standard, I don't know. But it was disappointing. Overall, good flavors just not quite as good as the one about ten blocks away. Review #3116

Here for the mini conchas
Soraya G.

I'm so surprised El Globo has such few reviews as I find it one of the best pan places on the westside. And you can fight me on that! Immediately upon entering the aroma of ~baking~ engulfs the spacious corner bakery, nothing overbearingly sweet just the smell of fresh bolillos and a hot oven hard at work. Everything is well arranged with a couple of refrigerated cases storing cakes, flans, and lots of beverages including my favorite, Boing juices. They were getting ready to stock the cases and I deviously went ahead and stole some fresh pan from the racks for home, sans regrets. I'm currently obsessed with their miniature conchas, I find them so irresistible. Any color, any flavor, grab a couple of trayfuls, just in case. Their prices are unbelievably reasonable, I paid under $8 for a few churros, conchas, and bolillos. Their tres leches custom cakes are pretty delicious too, and I'm a picky judge. We've had them custom made for birthdays and they really deliver great quality and wonderful prices. There's so much to love at El Globo, I sure hope more people will discover why this is a fan and family favorite for sure!

Pan dulce

Love that we weren't the only ones going late at night for some sweets. The place was packed at 8:30pm. Fully stocked with lots of pan dulce.

ChocoFlan - Full $25.00 or slice of Flan $2.50.

El Globo Bakery has been open for months and doing well. Always customers from early morning till close. This is a Mexican Bakery with very little English spoken but enough to get you in and out. Large or special orders can be placed at the counter. After you enter walk to the cashier counter, grab a metal tray and tongs, then select from the large selection of breads, pastries, desserts and cookies. Most everything is oversized and it's hard to make a decision. I usually just shop with eyes only and try several things. The raisin pastry, Coco Flan, doughnuts and regular flan is delicious. Coffee is also selfserve at $1.00 a cup. Nothing fancy or a Coffee House but a decent cup of coffee. Great to see a business holding their own providing a service the neighborhood supports.

I always quite enjoy a visit to Parlor Doughnuts for a sweet treat and midday perk up. It's sure…read moregood that I can walk here from my home. The storefront has a few tables to sit at and a large display case of all the donuts. Counter service to order is always pretty quick and easy. I like their rewards program in their app, which occasionally has freebies to entice you to come in. Not that I need it, but it sure helps. This most recent visit I got the local feature, which changes by the store and is supposed to be different for each store. This one had Oreo Cheesecake, which combines two of my favorite desserts. So of course I had to get it. I think I got the last one in the display case! They always have more donuts in the back though, as they make more throughout the day. A standard donut here is $3.95 at the time of posting, and dietary accommodating donut (vegan/gluten free, and keto donuts) are $4.25, so the prices are kept pretty fair in my opinion. They also have mini donuts which are a modest price (that I already forgot). There's also doggy donuts for $2.95! Coffee here always hits. I like to get the Mayan Mocha syrup in my latte, which is chocolate and cinnamon and too good not to get. This most recent visit I learned that they have whole bean coffee, and you can get a discount on your next can if you bring the old one back. Anyways, I've been going here and you know I'll be back here.

I had the chocolate keto doughnut, and it was delicious! I…read morealso had one of their egg sandwiches and I honestly didn't like it. It was like burnt on parts of the bacon and had no flavor. The cafe is cute though, it's small but has some seating arrangements. The girl who took our order was really nice. I felt bad because it seemed like it was just her and then it got busy quickly.

I must admit that despite my reporting on the apparent donut wars in Avon Indiana, with no less…read morethan five different donut shops in the growing town, I'd completely forgotten about the presence of Rise n' Roll Bakery until I happened to be on my way out to Putnam County and happened to look over and see the shop in a relatively small strip center. Rise n' Roll was founded in Middlebury, Indiana by an Amish family as an offshoot of the family's selling of donuts from the porch of their Shipshewana home. Established a Rise n' Roll in 2004, it stayed relatively small for years. The original bakery didn't use electricity, refrigeration, or modern tech. Everything was by hand. In 2009, the Amish owner sold the company to a non-Amish family. It was moved to a larger facility - the original owner stayed employed by the company and the small bakery began to expand including franchising. In recent years, the Central Indiana presence has grown. Rise n' Roll offers donuts, pastries, Amish goods, deli, and other items. While I was sad to see Rise n' Roll leave their Broad Ripple spot, truthfully I tend to resonate more with its simpler locations (there's now a smaller shop in Nora). This spot in Avon reminds me of Nora. I believe the Indiana-based chain has 16 locations statewide. I'm a definite fan of the chain and have never had a bad experience at any location in terms of product or people. I primarily stick to donuts when coming here, however, I'll occasionally deviate. While I'd say that Rise n' Roll is decked out a bit nicer than Carl's, I felt a similar vibe here. In a town that has multiple options, it's really important to distinguish yourself and Rise n' Roll does that nicely. The cinnamon caramel donut is perhaps its most widely known and beloved option, however, I'm a fan of chocolate frosted (yeast or cake). Donut offerings can vary between locations. Employees here are friendly. The strip center has accessible parking with appropriate curb cuts. The single glass door was pretty manageable. I get the sense they'd easily help if help was needed, though it's obvious that most folks with disabilities prefer independence. Overall, I'd easily claim Rise n' Roll as one of my Avon favorites. I won't dare rank the five, though a quick read of my reviews would likely make it obvious. For a more natural option in a pleasing, welcoming setting it doesn't get much better than Rise n' Roll.

Amish baked goods and coffee and boba and other things!! This place is bigger than I thought. Be…read moresure to check out the entire store. There are more things in the back and even an extensive boba drink menu. There are restrooms here. The service was good. The donuts are delicious. There are some really nice unique flavors. The coffee menu is extensive. I didn't see coffee on the menu online. I got the Bismark crunch. This was good but the crunch pieces on top just sank to the bottom because of how heavy it was. I thought it was going to be smaller pieces in the coffee. I got the lemon Blueberry and cinnamon caramel with Bavarian filling. Will def be back to try more flavors

It's been about a year or so since Borage first opened and I finally got around to trying it out…read more First off, I love the vibes in here. It's giving cute, cozy, sunny brunch vibes. My boyfriend and I came on Mother's day (unintentionally) and we waited about 10-15 minutes to sit at the bar. Getting our orders taken & our food served definitely took a bit of time, but we enjoyed seeing all the cooks in action and getting to smell all the amazing smells!! I got Grandpa's one pan skillet and my boyfriend got the sausage breakfast sandwich on croissant bread. All I gotta say is those chefs definitely knew what they were doing! The flavors were unique and intentional and I enjoyed every bite. The home fries (potatoes) were also so yummy and everything was cooked really well. There's nothing basic about borage and I love that! This place is a gem. They also have a cafe/market area where you can order drinks and pastries. I wish we waited until we got seated to order drinks because the menu was much more extensive than what I saw in the cafe and I would have ordered a different drink had I seen all the other options. The staff here are also very welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed our little brunch and will be back with family next time!
