Gorgeous and delicious pastries! Friendly service and very nice atmosphere! Yesterday morning my husband, daughter and I came in for coffees before going to a wedding rehearsal. Coffees were great! Hubby also ordered one of their lemon tarts....absolutely delicious! This morning my daughter walked over from the hotel and bought coffees and a couple of raspberry cheesecake croissants.... Phenomenal! Crispy and surprisingly light! We're coming back in the spring after our returns from deployment and we will definitely come back here! read more

Came here to celebrate Mother's Day because every year, they have done this awesome offer of free French toast for moms. Came with my mom and sisters, one of which is also a mom. They also are closed on Sundays, so they do this offer the Saturday before. Their French toast is some the best I've ever had, so fluffy and comes with whipped creme, strawberries, and thier Carmel syrup, which, if you haven't tried, is beyond amazing. I ordered the ham, egg and cheese croissant, and it was devine. The croissant was fluffy, flaky, and sweet it paired so well with the savory of the ham and cheese. The razzelberry smoothie was just the right amount of sweet and tart. It was so hard to pick what to eat because everything sounded and looked good. They were very busy, obviously due to the great deal, and they did forget a few things we ordered and messed up some orders, but they were quick to resolve them. The food also came out quicker than expected. The staff here were so nice and answered all questions. read more

Stupidly returned! Nothing has changed - placed a kids meal order through app - meals come with sandwich, chips, drink and aforementioned nasty sugar cookie (my child loves their grilled cheese- detests the cookie) Pull up to window - handed a bag out window and thanked! Drive the 5+ miles home And hand daughter her bag- she immediately turns around uh where's the sandwich? All that was in bag was chips and COOKIE - i immediately try to call and get back in car - 11- minutes later with phone STILL ringing i get out of car and as soon as I hit the door - whoever says - i know so sorry we will remake - THEY KNEW Was I offered a drink? cookie? refund? for my wasted time and troubles? No I was not They cannot blame on being busy- there were more staff than patrons! Three staffers - ZERO people in restaurant or in line such a cute restaurant and concept - horrible experiences read more

Tried Kneaders for the first time. The crack chicken sandwich had 3 tiny slices of chicken on it and zero bacon. Disappointing sandwich. The coconut curry lentil soup was delicious. The other sandwiches that were ordered in our group came out correctly. read more

Stopped at kneaders for a coffee and it was a good cup of coffee, but in exchange you have to wait a lifetime. Workers are friendly and pastries are always nice, just wish service was a bit faster. Recommend going inside rather than the drive through! read more

The people were nice, just very unorganized. After waiting 20 minutes they gave me a sandwich with all the things I requested to NOT be on it because of allergies without adding what's supposed to be on it. How can you give some a pesto sandwich without telling them you ran out of pesto? They also didn't know it was my order, thought it was an online order? Not worth the time or money. Ambiance was cute and clean for the most part. read more

We had family bring two pies from Kneaders for Thanksgiving. We had the raspberry and chocolate cream. Both were delicious!

Do you know where to get the best HAM OR BACON OR SAUSAGE, EGG & CHEESE CROISSANT SANDWICH? If you said Kneaders's Bakery & Cafe you would be correct. Morgan to great care of us for breakfast. Very helpful and every need was filled. The coffee was great. As you can tell from the pictures the food is fantastic. Our food came to our table fast and it was steaming hot. It's nice to not have to wait for coffee or drinks they have a great drink bar. Thank you Kneaders!! read more

Went in looking for jarred Raspberry jam and asked, in a friendly way, if they had the raspberry jam and (who I was assuming was the manager) just looked at me slightly annoyed and said I can get you some and comes back with a small plastic container of jam...not what I asked for. I said, I mean do you have it in a jar (because it was not readily visible to me). Annoyed again, he walked to the end of his counter without saying a word and started to pull out some jars and then I noticed some jars tucked away on a shelf behind me and said, oh, there they are. Mind you all this guy had to say is yes we have some right behind you on the shelf down there near the floor, but I guess his snooty vow of silence for the day was just too important to him to engage with his customer who was willing to buy about 5 raspberry jams, but instead only bought 2 because this guys didn't deserve my business, nor, do I think, he really cared to have my business. The sweet girl at the register rang me up and I purchased the jam, a drink, a side of sourdough (not gonna let my plastic sample cup of jam go to waste) and sat for about 10 min to eat. Kneaders is closing down locations and if this guy/manager is the face of customer experience...I can understand why. Corporate...do better in hiring or at least popping in for performance reviews with managers and employees. Acting like you can't be bothered and are above helping someone with very simple questions willing to buy a whole lot of your product doesn't really bode well for your future and keeping existing sites open. read more

Love Kneaders they always get what I want right and it's my favorite place to stop for some amazing food, the portions are always big, it's always fresh, the desserts are nice the brownie is my favorite, I either get the chicken pesto or the turkey avocado and omg the best!! I would definitely come here again. Also service is really nice too. The only downside is their sweet tea isn't sweet but I'm from the south so it's ok I don't hold it against them. Upside: they sometimes have specials where desserts come with your meal! read more

Was laid up sick in bed, so I door dashed the soup/sandwich combo, a cup of chicken noodle soup, a half ham & swiss sandwich, and a Coca Cola. It was just what the doctor ordered. I'm definitely excited to try more of their food, especially the bread. read more

Ordered through the app and it still took approximately 15 to 20 minutes for 2 breakfast croissants and a badly cut small piece of Peanut butter cheesecake. Please don't put the cheesecake in the same bag as the hot food. The cheesecake looked horrible. Terrible presentation and it was very small. Photos are how I received my piece of Cheesecake. I would not order a slice of cheesecake again. It was ok not good or great. Croissant sandwiches were cooked prefect. Customer Service during the week thru the drive thru is excellent but on the weekends it was very slow through the drive thru even though I had already ordered and paid for my food. I think I will stick with going during the week not the weekends. read more

I order the same salad from here at least four times a week. Tonight I was so disappointed. The salad was wilted and the strawberries looked like they were previously frozen and defrosted they were mushy. The salads never look the same but tonight it was just a big disappointment. read more

ordered a croissant chicken and cranberry sandwich, and got a croissant with like 1/2 slice of chicken and a 1/2 tsp (maybe) of cranberry. So for 13.00, I got a croissant.... Terrible! Won't go back ever! read more

The service was polite,friendly and professional. It was busy but the staff attended to everyone in a timely manner. The bagel I had was fresh and very good . Not the same as East coast but still good . read more

Tragic, the size of a piece of cheesecake yesterday. It had three bites. If you have to make something this small at a high price perhaps the business model no longer works. read more

So disappointing. You pay a lot and get very little. Portion sizes are a joke. Coffee was cold. Will not go back

The food is great always but one thing I have to talk about is the person packing orders (pastries) specifically was not wearing gloves at all. I was going to order something sweet until I saw that and it deterred me from ordering it and I just left the line. I don't care how clean your hands are, there are pastries with allergens and people with a severe allergy to peanuts that if you touch those cookies and then my pastry I will have a fatal reaction to it. I also don't care how busy it is, wear gloves and use tongs instead of your hands also because of sanitary reasons. This was my favorite location in my area but I don't think I'll be returning if this is how food is going to be so carelessly handled. read more

Perfect place for soup and a sandwich on a cold day! The bowl of soup is a large portion, suggest getting a cup if you're also getting a sandwich. read more

Kneaders has excellent food, including amazing baked goods. I love their breakfast sandwiches and anything that comes with their syrup. Their syrup tastes like homemade butterscotch!!! But our usual time to go there is lunch or dinner. They have a drive-through, so my husband doesn't mind picking up. Their sandwiches are enormous!! My two favorites are the chicken salad on croissant or the turkey bacon avocado. I usually ask for sour dough bread instead of focaccia. I highly recommend!! read more

The place was a mess and cluttered. Barely places to sit, blocked the fireplace.and entranceways. All this during the busiest week. Very inconsiderate. The bathroom and bathroom door was nasty. They were more worried about making some sort of packages and ignoring the customers and bathrooms. read more

Wow, customer service is really lacking here! To be honest, I'm not a regular, but each time I've gone I've had either employees who are either rude, uninterested in helping me, or just lack any kind of friendliness. I've had orders totally messed up during a business lunch with 8 of us, to the point that several meals had to be re-made and one of them three times with no apology. The most recent, I called to ask what kind full pies they had for sale. I was on hold for 10 minutes and then I was told they only had one Raspberry Cream Cheese pie. I had already been driving there so I decided to just go inside. They literally had 5 different types of full pies in the display case for sale!! What was she doing for 10 minutes while I was on hold? And why did she only tell me one kind? I ended up buying the Rustic Apple pie and it was delicious! I also tried their raspberry jam...OMG. What's wrong with the culture of the staff here? Great food, sad service. PS - I gave them a 3* because their food is so yummy and that's why I'll return. Otherwise it would've been a 1* and I wouldn't go back. read more

Good place for desert. Purchased two and ate one. Very good size portion so it is hard to get a sample of more that one. The chocolate dome is my favorite. read more

My mother-in-law ordered 36 fruit tarts for a birthday party. My husband picked up the box and brought it home. I opened it up to discover eclairs and brownies- not a fruit tart in sight. The receipt said fruit tarts, but below that they had a hand written on there "eclairs and brownies". So I called Kneaders and explained the situation, and their response was "oh, they didn't call you? Sorry, they were supposed to call you, we are out of tart shells." The Lady on the phone took no responsibility, blamed it on the other staff, and then simply said "sorry, I wish there was something we could do, but they were supposed to call you." I didn't want to be a Karen, so rather than argue I ended the call. So we spent $50 on mini eclairs that would have tasted better and been cheaper from the grocery store, and brownies that I could have gotten twice as many out of a box mix for pennies on the dollar and tasted just as good. They weren't even pretty for display at a party. She offered no discount, an insincere apology, and definitely no refund. I had never been to Kneaders before and I was excited about a chance to try them. Obviously neither I nor my family will ever be back. read more

I always enjoying stopping by on my lunch hour. I take a little later lunch, so it's not too busy. Food is consistently good. My favorite is the almond croissant! When it's close to St. Patrick's Day they have a killer Irish stew that comes with equally as delicious soda bread! read more

Used to love Kneaders in Castle Rock, the one in Colorado Springs though has disappointed us several times . Maybe they have enough help, no but it seems like they are always out of what I want to order. Used to go there quite often for sandwiches but since they discontinued rye bread I just make my own now. read more

This is the worst kneaders. I frequently visit the ones in AZ always good. I ordered chicken and rice soup. Looked like dog food and was thick like mash potatoes. I told them not appetizing and ordered broccoli cheddar they brought it out cold like just out of the fridge. The attitude of the staff was horrible!! read more

Very disappointing that the quality of food has gone down. Tea doesn't taste nearly as good as it used to. Pre-ordered Easter cup cakes one week in advance for Easter Sunday and went at scheduled time and they only had half and most likely gave half to someone else. What's the point of preordered then? Dined in and went to restrooms, couldn't flush or wash hand because bathrooms had no running water. So riddle me this, what do the employees do after using restrooms? read more

The best croissant sandwich you can get on the fly!!!! Seriously so good and the other food options here are delicious as well!

ok umm this place is not good. at this point just go out of business like ur not gonna be the next panera if you can't make a good tuna sandwhich... also why are we eating off plastic plates like can i have a real plate maybe. everything here is like mushy and just weird. also service sucks like we were the only ones there and it took forever like if ur gonna take that long atleast get my order right. also what are u putting in ur turkey sandwiches?? are u trying to kill ur customers or sum. also why is there just a bowl of lettuce as a side is that all u guys could come up with?? for some reason i could make better food and i don't even cook. just make better food please for the love of god - cooter reviews read more

I work for a major corporation as an admin. After catering for a very large group of people, one of our guests found a maggot in the Broccoli and Cheddar soup. The most disgusting thing I have ever seen. read more

Nice selection of sandwiches. Just had the club and the bread was sooo fresh! It was very good and I was able to only eat half at the restaurant. The second half will be my dinner. Thank you. I will return to sample some of your other items. read more

I love Kneaders for its fresh cafe style food, available through drive thru! So convenient if you're looking for healthy food, fast. I'd say I really enjoy the grilled cheese and the Reuben sandwich! It's always so delicious. I do enjoy the guava smoothie as well. It's very refreshing. We've also visited for breakfast and they have great breakfast sandwiches and french toast. The kids meals are a great deal because it comes with a sandwich, chips, sugar cookie, and drink. My daughter loves their sugar cookies. It's always a little treat for her when we visit. My only complaint is that it is pricey. For a family of 3, I've easily spent about $40 each time. So it's not worth going to regularly if you're looking for a deal. Even with a rewards card, there doesn't seem to be any great rewards that come with it unless you dine there often to build up your points. read more

We had coffee and an assortment of pastries. The service was good and the food was very tasty. We are from out of town, but would definitely go back if we could. read more

I'm shocked to see this place at 3 stars. The French toast is incredible, the coffee is fantastic, and the sweets (especially the mint brownies) are outstanding. I've had the sausage breakfast sandwich, turkey sandwich, and several salads and they all have been great. Only thing I wasn't crazy about was the tuna - it was good but not great but I feel tuna is one of those things that people like a specific way. This place is great. 3 stars? Hell no! read more

French toast is great. Croissant breakfast sandwiches, even better! Get the cheesecake!

Before we moved to the Springs, I recommended this place to everyone. I think something happened during the shutdown- maybe they're trying to make up profit- but I got a chicken sandwich in July- awful- the chicken was like canned chunks. Ordered pies for an August birthday- they completely messed up the order- so no pie for his bday. Yes- they let me pick up the next day, but ?? Finally, got an order delivered last week that was good. So, went with my husband today- they forgot my drink- so we shared. They forgot his soup, which he wanted- but made him wait in line & reorder. Then, I decided to refill the drink with iced tea- it had turned. (If you love iced tea, you'll know.) then I was by the wrap, because I'd purchased a gift & the server rudely said "customers can't go in the drawers." Ok. But be nice about it. I think it's the last time we'll be back for awhile. It's so disappointing. Edit: we got my mom a Turkey cranberry to go. She just let me know there was no cranberry read more
