    I must say for as long as the line was out the door. I was hoping it was going to be a little better. The service was absolutely great when it came to ordering, and there were about five people taking orders at a time. This is your small hometown, bakery with low prices in an abundance of choices. For me the things that I bought I spent about $18 and I got so many things. Nothing was over the top very basic flavors. I think that next time I will definitely get the cake and see how that is and maybe even the bread. The smell was so good inside and it seems like a very popular place to go with a lot of options. There is no seating inside, which is fine because you can go outside and sit at the tables. I will be back to try other things, but I can't put this at the top of my list.

    Gnome cookie

    We were walking around downtown and popped in even though we weren't particularly hungry. We had read about this shop in the magazine at our inn. We couldn't resist a little gnome cookie that we saw so we bought it and ate it outside on a bench. This seems to be a local institution and very popular with the locals. We definitely support local businesses like this at home and when we are traveling.

    My family and I stopped in here after brunch to get some sweet treats to take back home with us. All of the staff were super friendly and very sweet with letting us take our time browsing and helping out with recommendations. My sister got a few pastries to try out (cream puff, eclair, and then a black and white cookie that was almost like cake base with the black and white icing on top). I got one each of the key lime, old fashioned sugar, old fashioned chocolate chip, chocolate chunk, strawberries and cream, blueberries and cream, oatmeal raisin, and snickerdoodle cookies to try. They were all your classic cookie except the key lime and strawberry/blueberry cookies. The key lime was like a slightly tart tea cookie with some powdered sugar, I liked it a lot. The fruit cookies were almost like a cake texture and didn't have as much flavor in them as I was hoping for, but they were still very good. Overall a very cute little bakery with soooo many different treat options that are fresh, tasty, and reasonably priced. There is definitely something for everyone in here!

    Carrot cake with buttercream frosting (fresh flowers added)

    Service fantastic always. This carrot cake unbelievably good, gorgeous, perfect. This recipe has tasted the same for 40 years - since my wedding cake. In today's world that consistency and quality is almost impossible to find. Thank you for keeping your delicious craft going McFarlans!

    Blackberry turnover ($3.95)

    We couldn't stop in Hendersonville without stopping by this well lauded bakery. We arrived around 11am and all the glazed donuts were gone, but that didn't deter me. I purchased a blackberry turnover for breakfast tomorrow, and a very large bear claw for my tea upon returning to my sister's place. My sister bought some cookies which we enjoyed after lunch in town. I had a third of my bear claw (with tea) as soon as I got in the door. It is so fresh. Just the right amount of cinnamon filling and icing on the top. This bakery will definitely be a stop to return to on a future visit.

    Bear claw was very moist and cake like, chocolate filling was odd....ive had some of their doughnuts before and those are great!

    Looking for a new addition, look no further. If you enjoy great baked goods you will find an endless selection of deliciousness. Anna helped us find the 'must haves', and was most helpful! If you live within an hour of McFarland Bake Shop you will not be disappointed

    I only walked in here because they had the door open and you could just SMELL the goodness inside. It was also busy, but the line moved real quick. We got the raspberry brownie, blueberry cookie, and two donuts. All were super good and I've found my go to bakery now.
