Great bagels, excellent housemade cream cheeses. Something something extra characters needed

We love Andyman! The best bagels around! The bagel pizza melt is delicious. The egg poppyseed is our favorite bagel. The macarons are great in every flavor. We are looking forward to trying everything! Great service and homey, relaxed atmosphere. We are so glad to have this cafe in our area :) P.S. To Andyman, " Thanks for all the good food and good times we have had at your cafe!" From, Sarah and Ikal read more

Horrible disgusting experience. I hate to leave a bad review but this was awful. The person running the register made me feel like I was bothering her by just ordering, no customer service, she seemed completely disconnected. That's not the worst part of the experience. After I ordered I waited as my sandwich and other customers orders were being prepared in front of us. I watched in disgust as flies were crawling all over their open containers of cream cheese, jams, and other sandwich ingredients. I was then shocked as a fly landed on a customers sandwich and neither the two people preparing the food, the cashier, or the manager seemed to even try to shoo the flies away. Finally I saw a fly land in my sandwich, again no reaction from either of the cooks, they continued to prepare the ingredients as the fly was in my food. There were about 5-10 flies buzzing around all over the entire duration I was there. They gave me my food, I took it, and immediately tossed it when I got home. I will not be coming back here and I suggest anyone going keep a keen eye on the environment their food is being prepared in. It's a shame because their product looks good, but the sanitary conditions are shockingly poor. read more

I waited 30 minutes for a pick up order.. After getting my food and there being no wait at the coffee counter I realized the coffees I placed for pick up that I was waiting on were never made so I had to ask for both coffees to be made and one of the coffees still wasn't made correctly and then I got to the car to realize one of the sandwiches placed for pick up was not made correctly either so I had to go back in and have that fixed also. read more

Food is delicious, but you are playing roulette with any big order. Some people like living dangerously, but I'd prefer to leave that for the casino. read more

The food was good and delicious. The service was amazing and the staff was friendly. The place was clean and family friendly. read more

See all

Terrible service. Awful late. The young man with pink hair couldn't have been less socially aware. Completely seemed annoyed I was ordering anything, totally rude for no reason. Burnt the milk, so the drink was way too hot, then filled my late way to the top of the cup, with no foam whatsoever. It spilled all over my car, and burnt my hand. I threw it out, it was that bad. A total waste of money. Mind you, I drink lates all the time, buy them all over and have never had this happen. It's too bad when people are in customer facing jobs, and don't like people or have basic manners. read more

Great pastries, breakfast, and coffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Pastries and snacks were amazing. Great bakery. Service is excellent. Atmosphere isn't the best, but they are doing their best to keep prices down. read more

what happened to this place ? it was going so well , I enjoyed coming in , looks like they lost a few people and I see why , total chaos, and was completely ignored while 2 girls and a male were behind the counter . Very disappointing . sadly I will not be returning read more

Flies in the case, desserts are stale. Originally tried this place 9 years ago and recently and the same results. It's actually crazy . read more

Disappointed, yet again. I bought a box of mixed pastry at 7am for my Mom and they tasted at least a day old if not more. So stale. All of them. Having managed bakeries and been a baker, I know that the pastry should be baked fresh every morning, and typically only have a shelf life of 12 hours. I only go here once a year since they've opened, and I always hope they'll be better, but I'm done going. Market Basket has better pastry. read more

Always great staff-baked goods are scrumptious and best bagel sandwiches. You will not be disappointed.

Customer service is AMAZING!!! the owner has gone out of his way to make the items which I requested...I have never had such good service from any business EVER!!!! Bakery has the best items and all the people working here are so helpful and friendly...I travel a half hour to do business here and would go further to do business here.. read more

Ordered a chocolate cream pie for Christmas. Everyone was very much looking forward to it. I have always enjoyed the pastry but the pie was awful. It barely had any chocolate filling Very light in color and did not taste like chocolate. The rest of the pie was over two inches of topping and not whipped cream as we expected. Unfortunately needed to throw out. Will never order a pie there again. Also had a strawberry on top that everyone thought was odd Would not recommend read more

This place is always jumping! The best baked goods around at reasonable prices!! There is a decent amount of seating inside and the volume is conducive to grabbing a coffee and talking. Huge thanks to Jason for helping me out with a catering platter on short notice. An Amesbury gem. read more

The Andyman bakery in Amesbury is absolutely by far the best bakery I've ever gone to. I love the fact that it's not just a bakery and it sells other things like bagels and sandwiches and especially that yummy bakery pizza. Two days ago I called and I spoke to the baker herself. Her name is Debbie telling her I needed a double layered cake for a very special woman who is retiring. Debbie went above and beyond and out of her way to ensure that we got everything that we asked for with the decorations, etc. the cake was amazing not only did it look beautiful. It was so delicious. I was amazed at how little the cost for such an amazing cake. The Andyman has always been a favorite of mine. The staff is always super nice. There's plenty of parking. Very rarely. Do I walk in when there is a line and if there is a line, it's worth the wait believe me. Thank you to the Andyman and their Baker Debbie for always making my parties extra yummy. read more

I had the privilege of interacting with Cole Ciprari on the phone. He is a genuinely kid, caring, sensitive man. Due to a family crisis I had to cancel a Bakery order (last minute). Cole was understanding and expressed compassion and a generous spirit. He showed up at my door and gave my husband some adorable cupcakes to serve our family. DELICIOUS! Andyman's Bakery is now on my "go to" list. I have puchased items in the past and loved everything. Thank you to the company for hiring such a truly wonderful representative! read more

I have been to andymans my entire life and have never witnessed such horrible attitude from the staff. I was here on July 3rd 2023 and a lady behind the counter in a gray sweatshirt, glasses and black hair was the rudest person I have ever witnessed. i witnessed a man accidentally drop his iced coffee right after he got it. the lady in the gray sweatshirt gave him a roll of paper towels and told him to clean up the mess himself if he wanted her to remake his coffee. I then witnessed her give many dirty looks and horrible attitude to all other customers. this makes me very sad as everyone here on this day is seeing her horrible attitud - it's making this place not look good at all. she needs to be talked to at the very least about how horrible and uncomfortable she is making the andymans customers feel. read more

DON'T LET THE LONG LINES INTIMIDATE YOU! IT'S WORTH IT! Andyman's is our FAVORITE bakery. We try something new every time we go in. Everything we get is incredible. The staff is hardworking and their selections are to die for. For a special occasion, or just for coffee and a FRESH bagel, it's worth the trip. The chocolate cupcakes are heaven! read more

Just Amazing! Stop the DD runs. Best bagels I have had in a while. I almost put them next to a Brooklyn bagel. I travel the eastern US and this is a find. Cold brew coffee and must I did French vanilla. I will be back here to breakfast and must try the lunch one day! Plz try this place. Oh and there will be a line so be patient! read more

When ever I visit the area, I make sure to stop here for coffee. There is a large selection of coffee flavors to pick from. The bagels are really good and my kids like the cookies. The service can be a little slow at time and it's really busy in the morning. read more

My husband and I just moved to the area and have been here a handful of times after hearing great reviews especially for the bagels. Although the food is good, the place is not that clean and there have always been flies in the glass cases where the pastries are (sitting and flying on the pastries). We gave them the benefit of the doubt and tried to go back, but it's still the same thing (we've been about 5 times and there are always flies in the cases and around the shop). They produce good products for sure, but they need to clean their establishment especially since flies can cause further contamination and sickness. We will be back once the fly issue is handled! read more

I have always driven by because Im agoraphobic and it's always poppin here; and rightfully so! the best chocolate cupcake I've ever had. the best egg and cheese on everything bagel I've ever had. delicious iced coffee. wild cookies and carrot cake. and it was affordable!?? a dream come true - thank you read more

This was my first visit. The wait was extremely long,people waiting cut in line but the display of cupcakes looked so fabulous it was worth the wait,until you took a bite! Gross! It tasted moldy, took another bite yup moldy maybe freezer burn? maybe staff should take a taste before putting them in the display case every one of the cupcakes tasted bad. Such a disappointment. Just a suggestion have people take a number too! read more

Very nice place to grab a quick coffee, hot or iced, and a snack if you want. My wife and I stopped in on our way home to western mass, and we really enjoyed it. I got the Boston cream, delicious, and she got the brownie toffee with caramel. We will definitely come back again when we are in the area. read more

Andyman Dessert & Baking Co - a cold beverage in a plastic cup - Bakeries Near Me - Amesbury, Massachusetts

What happened! This was always a great place to stop in for coffee and... However I'm sorry to have to write this, but it's just not anymore. Granted, every place can have an off day. I've given it a try a few times & nothing has changed. The offerings I've had have been dry & tasteless like they've been defrosted - baked off & reheated. No thanks. That's not appealing to me. read more

I have been coming to Andyman for years as it is really the only bakery shop in town. They have always seemed too struggle with getting customers in and out efficiently and is still ongoing. The shop is way too small to accommodate the foot traffic and would benefit from a larger space. Today I purchased an iced coffee and one of these desserts for 7.50. the only edible portion of it was the cream. Pastry was soggy and tasted like the bottom of a refrigerator. Typically they do a good job but this was an awful experience. Hopefully just an off day. read more

Andyman Dessert & Baking Co - Gross with a cherry on top! - Bakeries Near Me - Amesbury, Massachusetts

Andyman's has a great variety of bagels which you can get many different types of cream cheese on or a breakfast sandwhich. They have a big case full of delicious bakery items. My favorite part about Andyman's is their iced coffee. They have an assortment of flavors such as snickerdoodle, boston creme (my favorite) almond joy, and many more. Definitely a great breakfast spot and they even offer lunch sandwhiches! read more

Andyman Dessert & Baking Co - Ham, Egg & Cheese on a Sesame Bagel - Bakeries Near Me - Amesbury, Massachusetts

I know this review will not matter to their regular customers because they had a enough of them and there isn't really much choice around here but are you kidding me? This was the most disappointing and disgusting excuse for a bakery/restaurant. It took forever for the front counter girl to acknowledge me, she didn't have a menu to offer but only a greasy, spotted menu to look at. Trying to make the experience a little smoother we went for the simple grilled cheese sandwiches. They were dry and stale tasting. The cookies they wanted for dessert were hard, stale, and tasteless. You know the food is bad when a 7 year old says a grilled cheese and a cookie is gross!!! Their idea of COVid distancing was to throw chairs on top of every other table. No plastic in site anywhere and people lined up inside 8!at a time. Seriously?! This place made it through the pandemic and other great places closed? People need to start being a little more choosy. Yuck! read more

Delicious bagels and treats. They are very busy so you will need to be VERY patient. This is not fast food. There is a 50/50 shot that they will get your order wrong. They need to train there staff better. The turnover is real high which is usually a sign that people are underpaid. read more

Coffee was good Bismark was really good the cream was to die for it's small inside & usually a line but it moves

Recently returned from Germany, I ordered a Black Forest Cake from Andyman. I couldn't have been more pleased. It was as good, if not better then the one I had in the black forest. Thank you. read more

I have been patronizing Andyman for the last few months. Generally, I have been happy, The coffee is great, baked goods excellent, and sandwiches good. I have stopped to buy desserts for a dinner at a friend's house and everyone loved what I brought. The reason for the rating of 3 is because I visited a few weeks ago and ordered a BLT. Here is what progressed. The (older) woman at the register was very pleasant. When she informed the other staff member (younger woman, long dark hair) I wanted a BLT Wrap it was clearly obvious from the woman's reaction she was not happy to have to make it for me. She finished making the wrap very quickly and gave it to me. When I opened the wrap I found a wrap stuffed with a lot of lettuce, a few slices of tomato and two very skinny slices of bacon. It wasn't worth 1/2 of what i paid. The reaction of the staff member was very bad and there were no other customers in the store so she wasn't stressed for time. Perhaps this young woman should find a job where she isn't required to work with the public. On this day there were two gentlemen who appeared to be either management or owners. I am disappointed because generally the service is excellent, read more

Everything bagel with garlic and herb cream cheese. Absolutely amazing. Best bagels around. Service has improved tremendously. Once, a place known for delicious baked goods but the rudest service around is a thing of the past. Great job! read more

(this is an update to my original review - I didn't have an "edit" option so I'm not sure if my original review is still visible so I included it as a photo attached to this review) **PLEASE NOTE: if I had reviewed Andyman's strictly on today's experience, it would be above 5 stars** I originally gave Andyman's 1 star and I felt as though that was generous. I had multiple nauseating experiences within the past year. Well, it's no secret that small businesses (especially) rely heavily on reviews so I only felt it was fair to update my review since I finally had a good experience! A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and his friend ordered sausage, egg, and cheese bagel sandwiches and both stated they were among the best they've ever had. I didn't have anything due to my previously bad experiences. However, today, my boyfriend picked us up food from Andyman's. Cream cheese on a bagel is my go-to, but I've been trying to limit my dairy intake (I know, I'm about to totally contradict myself in a minute) so I've been using my own dairy free cream cheese.. with that being said, he picked me up a mozzarella and bacon bagel just sliced, as is. OH MY! This bagel was DELICIOUS! It was without question super fresh, the inside was so soft and fluffy, and the flavor was incredible (due to both the bagel dough itself and of course the mozzarella and bacon on top). My boyfriend got a bagel sandwich, again, and also stated the bagel seemed more fresh than last time and was delicious. Due to today's experience, I will be giving Andyman's another chance. I do hope my future experiences are like that of today. I will update when I give them a few more tries to determine if today is actually their norm and will update my "star rating" and recommendations accordingly. read more

Andyman Dessert & Baking Co - Bakeries Near Me - Amesbury, Massachusetts

Literally garbage. The cupcakes are stale and pricey for old Duncan Hines. My first red flag should have been the 20 years of grime covering every surface. Don't bother complaining. I spoke with the owner himself who blew me off. read more

Been coming for ten year and won't stop coming. Literally had flies on the cookies though so I often pass on the food in the case. I come for the bagels and iced coffee. read more

Best bagels around. Got a nice crisp exterior and good chew to the interior. Generously coated with the various seasoning, both top and bottom. Great cream cheese options and the breakfast sandwiches are excellent. The queuing system is pretty haphazard and the place could use a bit of a cleaning, so it loses a star. Otherwise, the best bagels for mikes around read more

We go to Andymans often. I am very disappointed with the counter help! I feel like we are a bother to them. We were trying to order 6 pastries , the blond girl , was rude and literally didn't speak to us. We stood there waiting then asked for help. At the end of choosing we asked for scali bread sliced. She took her time out back and came back to us and again said nothing. She rang us up and then she spoke to us! We got home to make sandwiches and the bread was hard as a rock. Very disappointed. I can't believe she couldn't feel this!!!! You lost a customer today! I work with the public and understand it can be difficult but we need to be respectful to all our customers. read more
