This was my first visit to the Batchmaker and it will not be my last. I've been salivating over their Instagram page for quite a while and I promised myself that I'd check them out when I had the chance. Well today was that day. When I entered, I was promptly and warmly greeted. Then I saw it... the oatmeal creme pie cookies. I'll admit I had to keep myself from grinning like an idiot. After I placed my order and received the cookie, I noticed that it had a bit of weight to it and was much bigger than I thought. The pictures I took did not do it justice. This cookie was big and hefty. After taking a bite I can honestly say that it was the best dessert item I've tasted in Charlotte. For me it was the pinnacle of sweets. Amazing would be an understatement. But this is in my humble opinion, of course. I cannot recommend this place enough. I look forward to trying other items, but I think I'll get the oatmeal creme cookie a few more times. Check them out, folks. Do it! read more

Our adventure to georgia started with a stop in charlotte nc. I have been hearing about this bakery thebatchmaker for awhile now so I had to check it out. First off, their staff is some of the kindest people I have ever met. We came in similar to a wrecking ball with our three kids and they were so welcoming. It is the best atmosphere and so perfect for families from the little kitchen and cozy couches to the huge outdoor area depending on what works for your family. My husband came out of the restroom and immediately said "you must go see the bathroom." There it was. #goldengirls everywhere in all its glory. I think I screamed. I can't even remember... I was that enthralled. Next came the treats. You can always tell a good bakery by the basics. I always order a chocolate chip cookie. We also got a brown sugar pop tart, oreo cookie and oatmeal cream pie. I get the fuss friends. I get it. Hands down one of the best cookies I have had in my life. I warmed it (per recommendations) for 10 seconds and it was gooey goodness. Everything we ordered was so good! Even 3 days later when we finished it all. DO NOT MISS THIS SPOT! Get a couple things and split with your family! I can't wait for the next visit! read more

I had been absolutely DYING to try a bakery in West Charlotte, the Batchmaker Batch House, but the hours make it difficult for me to get here. They're only open while supplies last, between 8 AM and 3 PM, Tuesday-Saturday. When you work weekdays (like I do), the hours are not conducive to getting here! If they opened an hour earlier, I could get here more regularly. Until then, Saturdays are my only shot at making it in. It's a very limited menu, too, except on Saturdays when they showcase a wide array of goods. They WILL sell out though, so I highly recommend getting here as early as possible! This small little shop features a menu of rotating sweet treats throughout the week. There are a couple of tables outside the shop, and if it weren't for COVID, I'd love to sit in the super-cute, midcentury styled seating area inside -- complete with sofa, accent chair, a few tables, and a small bar you can work from (or simply sit and enjoy a snack). Alas, only two people are currently allowed in at a time. I love that the owner is 100% self-taught with no formal training. It makes the bakery feel more real and community-driven. I had no formal training when I worked as a chef, so I admire its owner. Heck, maybe I'll apply for a weekend job. Trade a few secrets as something to do. When I went, the service was extremely slow. It took a solid 10-15 minutes per customer, and when only two people are allowed in at a time due to COVID, the line moves at a snail's pace. I arrived at 9 AM, and it took about 40 minutes for me to get inside. The line only continued to build up behind me. I HIGHLY recommend you get there for opening, and just know that there is no "running in" for a quick treat here. Here's what I ordered: Tres Leches Draft Iced Latte. They partnered with Hex Coffee in Charlotte to offer this draft latte. It's on tap and tastes more like a dessert than a coffee. It's creamy, sweet, and delicious -- with just a hint of coffee. I TOTALLY recommend it! S'mores Cupcake. I have mixed feelings about this. Overall, it was one of my favorite things I tried. The chocolate cake was PERFECTION! It was fluffy, moist, and chocolatey... what's not to love? The marshmallow was great too. The one negative for me is that the frosting was too sweet -- like so sweet you think your teeth might fall out. If the frosting were a marshmallow frosting that was then garnished with a fancily designed graham cracker, this would be my go-to every time. I can't stop thinking about how good the chocolate cake portion was! Oatmeal Cream Pie. This is what the bakery is famous for. It's like a "Little Debbie Oatmeal Crème Pie" but SOOOO MUCH BETTER. I find the Little Debbie one sickly sweet (like the frosting from the S'mores cupcake). The Oatmeal Cream Pie at Batchmaker is heavenly. It has insanely good vanilla and marshmallow filling that oozes out in the best way possible. This was my favorite thing I tried -- and quite frankly, if the line weren't so long, I would have gone back inside for another one. Pro tip: Sometimes, they offer a variation where they put the filling between two Oreo Truffle Cookies, which has to be INSANELY GOOD. Oreo Truffle Cookie. This is an excellent cookie. I love Oreos, and this was a whole new level of deliciousness. It's chewy with a slight Oreo/slight vanilla flavor. It's sweet but much more subdued than an Oreo is. I'd call this perfection. If you like Oreos, these are DEFINITELY worth a try. Cinnamon Coffee Cake. This was good, but a disappointment compared to everything else. Don't get me wrong; it's a knock-out for coffee cake -- it's soft, moist, and has just the right amount of cinnamon. Everything else was just so dang good; this felt a bit boring. Caramel Scone. Perhaps it was caramel apple? It tasted like a delicious apple pie, so I think there was apple in it -- but maybe my brain was playing tricks on me. I can't find it on their menu, and it didn't have a sign when I was there, so maybe I imagined it... Anyhow... it's terrific if they do have it available when you visit. Turtle Cookie. These are BRAND NEW to the menu. It's a chocolate cookie covered in caramel and topped with sea salt and a pecan. It was delicious! And definitely more chocolatey than the caramel and pecan flavor of a traditional turtle. If you're looking for something soft and chewy, this is your YUM! Strawberry Pop Tart. THANK GOD real pop tarts don't taste like this -- I'd quickly be on the way to "my 500lb life." This deliciously flakey pastry is almost a pie crust with a slight sweetness: it's a perfect pop tart. They make a few other flavors too, like blueberry, brown sugar, and PB+J (all of which I need to try). S'mores Brownie. I paid for this; however, they forgot to put it in my box. After I got home, I reached out to them when I realized it was missing, and they were super sweet and embarrassed about it. Next time I come in, they'll give me the one I paid for, plus another to make up for it! read more

I have been following the bakery since Charlotte Agenda posted it and I'm so glad I finally went. The bakery/ coffeehouse is adorable, the staff are all very friendly and helpful. I got the oatmeal creme pie which were heavily, and the chocolate chunk cookie. I would recommend going there early if you want to get their bake goods. They are also taking preorders now due to the Covid. You won't regret the ride over. read more

I recently ordered a cake for a family celebration. I have fairly high standards, and have been looking for someone to replace Tizzerts, my go-to for 2 decades. This cake was amazing. Delicious, decadent, moist, flavorful, the list goes on. So pleased! We all loved it. read more

Wow! The chocolate cake was the BEST I have ever had! There is some secret magic in their kitchen! Great, kind service, highly recommend!

This place is absolutely delicious! I have tried 6 of their cakes and they do not disappoint. They also squeezed me in on a last-minute cake request, which I appreciated so much! read more

I like to think of myself as a cookie/baked goods connoisseur, so when I found out about The Batch Maker I couldn't wait to go. I stood in line opening morning with my twin boys and enjoyed my treat and Tres Leches coffee. Since then, my boys and I are weekly regulars for many reasons: 1) This is hands down the best treats I have ever consumed. The Smore's Brownie, Cookie Dough brownie, Oreo Truffle cookie and the pop tarts are all worth every penny. I still have many treats to try. 2) THE STAFF and CRIS- they make you feel at home, greet you with a smile and take time with each customer to ensure he/she gets exactly what they need. 3) Kid-friendly- There are definitely some coffee places that make you feel awkward when you roll in with two toddlers, but The Batch Maker welcomes kids with open arms. They have a kid cart, which includes toys, games and everything to keep your toddler busy while you enjoy your coffee/latte HOT. They also offer storytime on Saturdays in the space next door with additional treats. 4) Tres Leches Latte-get it! The Batch Maker is the highlight of our guests' trips to Charlotte. I always recommend our Airbnb guests to stop in, and when they do they rave about it... as I do. Kudos to Cris and her absolutely incredible team and staff for making The Batch Maker such a special place for our family to visit every week. It's our favorite place in Charlotte! read more

Full disclaimer - I don't really like desserts and never order them at restaurant Another full disclaimer - I really like these cakes and I would order them at a restaurant We got the lemon blueberry cake which was probably about 10 inches high. The verticality of the cake was probably one of it's most stunning features. Had to remove a couple drawers in the fridge to make it fit but absolutely worth it. Also! We got the biscoff cheesecake. Usually my stance on this is...cake good, cheese great, cheesecake nasty crap but no sir not today! No United airline mid flight snack quality with this biscoff creation. It was light, flakey, moist and just delicious. From one cake to another, happy eating read more

I know the City of Charlotte loves to hype up new businesses, and support is important, but you lose credibility when you exaggerate on reviews. Based on the 5 star review I had to give it a try. I mean it's a win win situation right? WRONG! It's a very small "bakery" with a small variety of desserts. Nothing really popped out at us, as it's mostly cookies, brownies and on this day a slice of "Snicker Cake" which was NOT good! At 6$ per slice it's also very expensive. The cake was not moist at all and the frosting was hard and not creamy at all. I didn't get the feeling or taste of a Snicker Bar with the exception of the occasional peanuts in the cake. The service was friendly, but I definitely won't be back! It did not fulfill my sweets craving. read more

The Batchmaker - A very disappointing slice of "Snicker Cake" - Bakeries Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

i like To think of myself as a chocolate chip cookie conisourre an am often disappointed when I buy one- not in the Batchmakers case! Her chocolate puddle cookies are amazing (As is everything else in the case). The shop is cozy and welcoming and in a cool part of Charlotte. I feel hip everytime I venture there from my south Charlotte neighborhood. Totally worth the trip! Don't skip her oatmeal crème pies (ocp). I love that she advocates for other local business and brings attention to ones I'm not familiar with. read more

The Batchmaker knows how to be a friend! From the moment you walk in the door, the aromas, friendly service, and genuine care is evident. I have dreams of the Oreo truffle cookie and the oatmeal pies. Grab a bunch and go back often. read more

I visited this place twice while in Charlotte, and man their cookies are delicious. I got the chocolate puddle cookies, the nutella cookies, and the oreo truffle cookies, and the Oreo truffle was my hands down favorite. I also got their tres leches draft latte during one of the visits and I told my friend about it within minutes because it was THAT good. I hope that they one day ship their cookies to NYC because I'm sad that I'm not close enough to get a regular fix of these cookies, but I'm so glad that I checked them out while I was down there. Next visit to Charlotte, I will definitely be back. So good - definitely give them a try! A tip - they charge extra if you get a drink without ice because it requires them to use a bit more materials. It's not a bad thing, and they tell you about it before they do - but it's something that is good to know! read more

Hey Cris...I just got back in town and took my pie out of the freezer, baked it for 30 mins and OMG, that pie by far was the most delicious pie EVER...THANKS TO YOUR STAFF OF BAKERS. read more

Well, the desserts are as good as they look on social media. Whatever you imagined something you viewed looked like, that's what it tastes like! After cyber-stalking this trending bakery on social media for few days , I decided to make a pilgrimage for something...anything she ( the baker) had left. Luckily, after standing in line, I was able to try a couple of items pictures with this review. It was worth the wait. If you have time to kill, the line isn't that major. Just bring a friend to catch up or whatever. There is seating indoors , and hot beverages available on the menu as well. This foodie call is worth it, trust me . read more

I have been chasing their s'mores cookies, brownies and cakes for what seem to be an eternity. But finally I got some. It's not what I wanted but it's something. So I got the s'mores cake, and a tres Leche cake. My friend loves the tres Leche. And I like the s'mores. It's very moist and heavenly. I can't say their customer service was 5 stars. They were very short wirh their answers both times. So I didn't try to push it or overly chatty. First time. It was packed in there. 2nd time. It was the first Wednesday at they opened in the evening. And it seem like there were a private event going on at the same time.. So I felt a bit rushed. All in all. I would love to come back and get the s'mores cookies, and more cakes read more

This is a NEW HOT SPOT to visit. The vibe is AMAZING and the owner is super sweet, just like her baked goods. My first experience here today, was very pleasant. I walked in the front door and was immediately greeted by the owner in one of the baristas. The vibe is very eclectic. Cool wallpaper on the walls and decorative plates are on display. The bathroom has a golden girls theme, how unique. I ordered a vanilla latte iced but they currently only have caramel. The caramel was amazing. Luckily, they also have oat milk. The owner let me snap a few photos around the shop for all yelpers to enjoy. The actual parking lot is small, but there is street parking nearby.Today was their soft opening. This Saturday will be their grand opening, and I can't wait to see what they have in store. read more

The chocolate puddle cookies were delicious. A little messy but definitely yummy. There is seating inside and out in love the velvet couches. How pretty! We waited in a long line right at the opening, so we weren't the only people excited to try out this new spot. The reason for the 4 stars instead of five is that prices are posted for coffee but not food. I paid $10.50 for three cookies. Go check out the yummies! read more

Just when I thought I had discovered all of my favorite spots in the QC for good coffee, pastries, etc., Batch House appeared! I love everything I've experienced about this place thus far--great Wesley Heights location, comfortably nestled between Laca Projects & The Living Room. Excellent service. Phenomenal, clearly thought out assortment of sweets to choose from. I actually had a hard time because everything sounded so delicious, but the banana Nutella bread I chose was spot on for today. Fluffy yet moist banana bread up top, with a perfectly rich & inviting Nutella crust?! I'll definitely be back! read more

Okay so The Batchmaker is a baking wizard. The only downside is that this place is so good that it sells out quickly and I don't wake up early enough to beat the crowd on the weekends so I usually end up empty handed or with the last things they have left (which have always been amazing) but it means I don't actually get to pick from all her goodies... one of these days I will get my hands on her oatmeal cookie sandwich. So my biggest suggestion for someone wanting to try this magical place is to plan ahead and wake up early! read more

The Batch House is by far the best bakery in Charlotte! Cris and her team are always coming up with fun and creative baked goods. The cereal inspired cookie I had today was out of this world! Her team always greets you with a smile and the bakery itself is so cute and welcoming. Definitely get an oatmeal cream pie and a s'mores brownie! read more

The Batch House is so cute! First the ambience and decor are so cute (and pink!) and the staff are friendly. Then the treats! The oatmeal cream pies are a must, we had them as favors at our wedding. There is always a wide variety to choose from cinnamon rolls to pop tarts to brownies. The themed desserts for Harry Potter night and the "butterbeer" draft latte were sooo good. read more

An absolute gem in Charlotte. Their cookie sandwiches are delicious, regular cookies have amazing flavor and texture, and other treats are solid as well. read more

First of all, outside of the shop and also interiors of the shop are absolutely pretty and chic. We had a red velvet cookie and weekend only cinnamon rolls. I loved both of them! Red velvet cookie is not too sweet yet it has rich cocoa flavor. The maple bacon cinnamon rolls is so fluffy and the crispy maple bacon adds nice texture to it. Overall we loved our visit and we're definitely coming back to try other baking goods! read more

This is my second time coming here man oh man the hype is real. As you arrive to this location, it looks like more of a industrial/ construction area. When I arrived there was about 5 people waiting ahead of me, and this spot just opened like 3 min ago. Is it that serious? Yes it is that serious. The oatmeal pie is my go to thing over here, I literally could probably eat 3 if I have my stretchy pants on. This is probably my favorite place since moving to the area. Cheers to the owners for putting me in a sugar coma. read more

Hands down my FAVORITE Charlotte bakery. I bring any out of towners here and they feel the same. The s'mores brownie, chocolate puddle cookies, and cinnamon rolls are my favorite, but I have never had anything that I haven't enjoyed. I always stock up on goodies and should honestly make a trip today! It's SO worth it. You will not be disappointed!! read more

If I had to rate the chocolate chip cookies then......I would say they are the best in Charlotte. Texture, taste and the right amount of yummy! They sell out fast! read more

I had the pleasure of creating the mural in the bathroom and Cris was such a pleasure to work with. read more

If I could give this place ten stars I would. When I moved here from Birmingham almost 2 years ago, I was on a mission to find a dessert place. I kept striking out for months on end, but then stumbled upon the Batchmaker. This place is hands down the best bakery in Charlotte, and I will fight anyone that disagrees with me. I go here every single Saturday morning to get my goodies for the weekend and am always greeted by the friendliest staff. They recognize me and some even know my name at this point. Cris is extremely kind and you can tell she loves what she does. She is super interactive with her customers in person and on social media. The instagram account is super well run and is aimed at engaging with followers. Daily videos are posted of what's in the case for the day, along with events coming up. They recently opened up on Sunday's so that more people could stop by during the week and get cookies, which was game changing for me since I work until 5PM during weekdays. The bakery is super cute and inviting, themed after the Golden Girls. Every day, there is something new in the case, but you always have your staple items such as s'mores brownies, pop tarts, and oatmeal cream pies. Some of my favorites are the churro cookie, crème brûlée cookie, and any cookie cake slice. The Batchmaker goes all out on holidays as well, making themed cookies and treats. This is my favorite place in all of Charlotte and I couldn't recommend it anymore. read more

Every interaction I've had with the wonderful ladies that work there has been so sweet. But the real star, are the baked goods!

It is impossible to walk out with just one treat since they ALL look so amazing! read more

I went here for the first time yesterday and absolutely loved everything about this place! The decor, the service, and the vibe was just perfect. I went around 2pm and there were only 2 treats left; the halloween candy brownie and twix bar. If you come here for the first time, I highly recommend getting there when they open so you can choose from their wide selection of baked goods! Nonetheless, the brownie and twix bar were both so good! The cashier was so sweet and gave me an extra brownie for free since it was their last one and was very friendly and helpful! I will definitely be coming back here again, just in the morning this time! I can't wait to try what else they have! read more
