Uncle Mikes Bake Shoppe

OMG! The pastries are fantastic! The coffee is so good! Super friendly and generous samples! A++++

People come for the «famous» Kringle which is definitely very good. But if you miss the Boston crème cronut you are robbing yourself. If I have a crew to give pastries too, I’ll get a kringle (half a cheese kringle and half cherry). But if it’s just two of us any of the cronuts are world beaters. If you have «liked» Uncle Mike’s and not had a cronut you will up your star rating.
Uncle Mike’s has guest-​worthy buns for burgers and dogs, and a stack of breads that are really good. We used to go to Great Harvest on George for great bread but lately we get it from Uncle Mike and everybody seems to like everything better.
Did I mention the wall-​O-​samples? You can have a piece of every kringle and cronut from the sample plates. I only do that when I’m getting donuts for a morning meeting because if I sample more than one item I am already full.
Get your butt down to Uncle Mike’s for your next box of office donuts and get those fresh early morning samples. So glad we don’t have lots of morning meetings or I’d have to buy bigger jeans.

This is my second update, I’m writing this because I have been stunned by their kringles again.
Our company was holding an event so we ordered 4 different kringles, my favorite is still the CHEESE KRINGLE. The cheese kringle is to die for, the flavor is not complicated, it is not too sweet and it melts in your mouth. I would remember the taste for the rest of my life. The aroma of those kringles were flying around our offices for the whole day. It was tempting.
But yeah, aside from your service, Uncle Mike’s Bake Shoppe really does a great job. The whole grain bread even smells like kringle which gives me a better feeling when eating it. «Great, I can enjoy the healthy benefits of eating whole grain bread while feeling like I’m eating a kringle».

Aww man, that Sea Salt Caramel Kringle tho! Given the rather plain box, I didn’t expect much when I walked into Uncle Mike’s. Boy, was I surprised. THIS is what I call a bake shop! I’m so sad that we were only in town for a few days. There were so many other things I wanted to try. The Kringle was amazing, as was the pecan danish we bought. I also tried a sample of some bread that was really good.
The lady who was working there was really sweet and a pleasure to talk to. Next time I’m in the area I want to try the chicken salad I’ve heard so much about. Now if we could only get one of these in Orlando…

I got the sea salt caramel pecan kringle after trying it at the farmer’s market! It was phenomenal :) Coming from San Francisco, I hadn’t had a kringle in a long time… and this did not disappoint! The employees who were staffing the stand at the farmer’s market were extremely friendly and pleasant to interact with.

The breads are great but the service is not good. As I was ordering my bakery items, the ladies behind the counter were talking pretty much ignoring me and what I needed. This happens a lot. Pretty soon the service will turn me away and I’ll need to find a different bakery.

I have no complaints about the baked goods. Everything in the store is great. However, the employees are downright rude. I had 2 different employees treat me poorly at my last visit, and every time I have come in has been an underwhelming customer service experience. At best they don’t smile. At worst I have had them roll their eyes at me when I told them I wasn’t ready yet.
If you hate your job that much, quit. By taking it out on the customer you are only hurting the business. It’s honestly a shame since I like their baked goods so much.

Excellent bakery! Donuts, Kringle, cake, decorated cookies, pie or fresh breads. The best!

I buy dozens of their donuts to bring to meetings. Everyone loves them and they are always surprised by how heavy a box of a dozen donuts can be!
Even though I’m selling other stuff, I get more «thanks» and compliments on these donuts! Sometimes I think I’m selling donuts instead.
The staff is always very helpful and friendly.
By the way… their cronuts are absolutely amazing! Its a very sweet meal!

I don’t know about you uncle mike…
The employee uniforms are absolutely ridiculous. Those annoying uniforms are the last thing I want to see in the morning.
The store has no organization. Everyone kind of walked in and stood in front of the counter and waited to be randomly selected by an employee.
The donuts were nothing to write home (San Diego) about. I’ve had much better. Uncle mikes weren’t bad, they just weren’t the best I’ve tasted.
It looks like the place does good business so maybe the locals know something I don’t. I just won’t be making this a ‘destination’ on almost yearly trips to Wisconsin.

The donuts are amazing, the chicken salad is fantastic and the Carmelita bars are to die for. We have ordered cakes a few times, but they always seem to be on the dry side. I think the Piggly Wiggly does a much better job with cakes.

My kids love the cookies and pastry items from Uncle Mikes.

I tried the frosted sugar cookies, cake pops, raspberry muffin and rhubarb coffee cake. All were delicious. I’m told the Spinach cheddar bread is to die for.
