Review of A & J Bakery

I finally was in the area of A&J Bakery and was eager to check it out. I left with a whoopie pie, a brownie with caramel frosting, chocolate croissants and a pack of cinnamon rolls. I've sampled some of each and have mixed feelings. The cake in the whoopie pie had a great flavor and while it wasn't exactly moist, it wasn't crumbly dry either. The filling did not seem like traditional whoopie pie filling. It wasn't bad but it was not what I was expecting. The frosting on the brownie was just okay and I didn't eat it all. The brownie was the same as the whoopie pie cake, not moist but not crumbly dry and had a good flavor. The chocolate croissants we had sampled in store and were good. The cinnamon rolls were good. I didn't love the glaze on them, seemed strangely thick. The dough on the cinnamon rolls almost seemed more biscuit-y than bread-y...if that makes sense...but they were tasty. It seems they also cater to dairy free as well and I'm guessing that some of the frosting/glaze issues I had may have been due to me not being used to dairy free versions of them.

The prices are reasonable and the staff was friendly. Overall, I was pleased and would probably go back if I were in the area again.

Celiac friendly?
