My wife and I really wanted to visit this place while we were in Johnson City . This place was not on our agenda but we are happy we visited because this place had a lot of great items from their Bakery and even have some vegan options too. They had some alcohol and non alcoholic options as well too! Staff here was absolutely friendly and helpful at explaining their items. Highly recommend, dining in here so you have the time to check out all the vendors inside. read more

The service is excellent but if you're looking for a bakery that has sweet pastries, this isn't the place for you. There were a couple items in a glass case that were 'bready', but not like pastries with creams, icing or filling. If you like bread, this is the place for you. read more

I dropped by this morning and was wowed by the food. This place is a unique gem in JC. Handmade croissants and baked delicacies. My family loved the three items I chose. The chocolate croissant, breakfast brioche and maple blueberry bear claw. Would highly read more

Was visiting family in JC last weekend and decided to go to this spot for breakfast because it was down the street from our AirBnB. The bakery is awesome. We had lattes, croissant w/ BEC for breakfast. The vibe was in a cool historic building with several artsy tenants in the same building. Great use of an old building. Really laid back atmosphere. Food was awesome. The service was fast. read more

When you open the door on North Commerce Street in Johnson City, and begin to stroll down the perfectly lit hallway, lined by small art studios, you know you're entering a special space. Said hallway opens into a small art gallery - Fischman Gallery - where you can browse regional paintings and artwork, as you make your way to this quaint, charming little bakery. The proprietor has done a wonderful job renovating this vintage building, by tapping into her formal arts training while simultaneously preserving the building's unique past. It's apparent the founder has put a lot of thought and care into Lazy Lady's decor and crafting a compelling ambiance. Said creativity and attention to detail carries over to their flavorful pastries and baked goods as well. This small batch artisanal bakery specializes in preparing breads, pastries, and pies, from scratch, while also paying homage to her heritage of home cooking. Hailing from the TRI region, Maren Close, obtained an arts degree from the University of North Carolina-Asheville prior to delving into the culinary arts. Her exploration of all things gastronomic led her to the foodie paradise of San Francisco, where she resided for 6 years, prior to returning to her roots to pursue her entrepreneurial interests. All of the pastries and coffee, on offer, are of the top tier variety. It seems everyone, these days, has cold brew coffee on the menu. The aforementioned abundance of options seldom translates into quality, though. Here at LL, you'll find delicious cold brew that exemplifies the attention to detail that pervades everything your senses encounter at this special establishment. Additionally, I am always greeted with a smile and extremely personable service on each visit. The delicious, decadent pastries on offer, the sense of intentionality and attention to detail that pervade the space, and the VIP level customer service one experiences makes this special bakery a must visit. read more

The pastries we got were very good. Wife loved the chocolate croissant and the lattes were good also. Went on the recommendations of other people we met in our hotel. Did not disappoint. Located on the downtown area of the city. They are only open on the weekends for now. Rest of the week they are baking for other eateries, catering and special orders. Highly recommend. Go early since they can run out of your favorite pastries fairly quickly. read more

It's a pity this place has a great vibe and quality baked goods because their customer service is lacking and their safety practices are nonexistent. We were pleased the first time we visited. We sat down that time and enjoyed our food in an art gallery adjacent to the shop. But this Saturday was different. My husband stopped by to pick up a box of pastries and coffee to go. When he proceeded to lift his coffee cup to his lips the lid easily came off causing extremely hot coffee to spill all over the front of his shirt. The cashier said something like "Did the lid pop off on you?" showing zero accountability and trying to deflect. No reaction at all to the customer whose entire chest and belly were just scalded by burning hot coffee. Amazing customer service, right, but more alarming was the lack of adherence to what should be a basic safety standard. I'm surprised this hasn't happened to more customers. Make sure you double check that your coffee lid is secured properly because the cashier is too NEGLIGENT, sloppy, and busy to actually do this for you. Maybe they should better train their staff on standard safety practices and multitasking skills? Maybe they should train their staff to take the time to properly and completely secure coffee lids? Or maybe give the customer a warning that the lid isn't securely placed? Or how about just leave the lid off entirely to not give customers the ILLUSION that it is securely placed. This hazard could have easily been avoided. My husband now has redness, pain, and blisters on his chest and abdomen thanks to this. A business should have more awareness, caution, and care to minimize safety hazards for their customers. Shame on Lazy Lady Baking for not prioritizing this. read more

Great service good coffee and excellent pastries. It was a great treat in a busy day.

Love this bakery. Love the pastries, coffee and atmosphere. A train comes right by the bakery's platform...a little fun surprise. Outside seating will give you an even closer view of the train while you munch on something tasty! read more

Looking for a breakfast and coffee downtown? I highly recommend this spot. We had the bacon egg and cheese on croissant. Wife had the lavender latte. Great downtown spot read more

The sourdough and daily offerings are phenomenal and the creativity of the flavors never disappoint! The gluten free pie crust has won awards and is used in the quiche. I love going in and meeting nice people. read more

Pastries are high quality and very tasty! It's best to go as soon as they open because things get gone FAST.

We found the back entrance off Commerce (hidden), and picked up a box of various pastries for the next couple of days. The presentation was lush, and the taste is decadent. So far we have eaten the apricot danish and the peach melba tartine. So light and flaky, with just the right amount of sweetness and a bit of tang. Can't wait to try the croissants and muffins. We will be back!! read more

Delicious small batch baked goods. Store front has limited hours so check hours before going. Everything looked good, but we tried the donuts and danish, and they were unique and delicious. There were some savory options that were pretty tempting too. It is obvious that they use quality ingredients and make everything by hand. They also offer gluten and dairy free options that looked really good. One of my 2 favorite bakeries in the Tri-cities. read more

Best pastry I have had in JC! Convenient location by Kings Commons in downtown Johnson City.
