West Side Bakery, Akron, Ohio, Bakery Restaurant Details

Food:

Stopped here for the first time yesterday. Bought some tea cookies, a veggie wrap, and a latte. My customers loved the cookies (reasonable price), the veggie wrap was probably one of the best I've ever had, and the latte was perfect. Above all though, the gal behind the counter was so sweet and this place was packed. I was impressed by how well she took care of me even with a long line of customers. There wasn't a place to sit, but this is probably to be expected in a small cafe at noon. I will be back for sure!

Food:

Very clean and orderly. Their little cakes and tortes are great. Their cookies aren't though. No flavor.

Hmmmm... A bakery that can't turn around a quarter sheet birthday cake with more than 24 hours notice ??? Had never been this bakery before and heard good things about it. I told the clerk behind the counter that I had never been to their bakery before and that it was my first time in their store. After I had spent almost 10 minutes speaking with her and deciding what I was going to order she took down all of my information. I asked how late they were open on Saturday ( it was 1:40 pm on Friday) she said until five and then proceeded to tell me that the bakers were not taking any orders for cakes for tomorrow because they were full. Really? I can bake a cake and have it ready to go in a few hours! They would have had 27 hours to fulfill my order for a SIMPLE birthday cake! Needless to say, I will not step foot in their bakery again. I vote with my wallet. Off to Westpoint market I go!!!

I recently purchased a birthday cake and was impressed by every aspect of The West Side Bakery! The staff was incredibly friendly and informative and the cake was delicious. The artwork on the cake was impressive as well! I highly recommend this bakery to anyone looking to cater an event with fresh, delicious desserts.

I have heard so many things about this bakery, so we decided to go and see what types of bakery goods the sale, never did I realize that the person who assisted was very disrespectful which I will never visit this bakery again. The person name that was displayed was Kim, even when it was time to pay Kim tone was toward us was very negative, we tried to be positive but when other people were getting treated nicely and when it was time for us to request our bakery treats, only to be treated negative. I never try to play the race card, but this was the one time I will use it. If your African American just record yourself or have someone else record it, especially if Kim is there and you will experience what am trying to say. The only thing that was missing in west side baker is the confederated flag.
