I don't even need to taste anything else (even though I will). Stopped in around 8:45 AM.... Not busy at all. Small place. Clean place, front-facing... which matters. Okay, listen. It's the pecan croissant for me! It was delicious. Great texture. Soft and flaky. Melt in your mouth. Not too sweet. No picture because I ate that thing in the car. Try it. read more

There's just nothing quite like a great plug. No, not the kind you stick into a power outlet--I'm talking about a "plug" in the modern vernacular: a reliable source. Someone who's got what you need, when you need it. You know, like when you're in high school and you accidentally forgot to brush your teeth... or maybe you went a little too hard on the onions at lunch right before English Lit with that really cute girl you wanted to talk to. But you knew you could count on your friend with the good gum to have your back. That's a great plug. Allow me to introduce you to my new baked-goods plug: Bake Sale Indy. Lately, I've been irrationally frustrated by baked-goods vendors I see on Instagram, only to discover they're open from 10:15 AM to 12:07 PM on the second Thursday of the fourth month when the sun is red and a one-eyed cat meows twice. I'm not out here looking for Diagon Alley--I just want a chocolate croissant that doesn't look pre-packaged. Bake Sale Indy, however, is open Wednesday through Sunday from 8am-2pm, which already puts them in elite territory. I had heard about it but finally stopped in on my way to an appointment off Allisonville Road. Everything looked incredible, but once I saw "caramel latte danish," nothing else mattered in the world. The flaky, buttery layers were perfectly complemented by the creamy filling and mocha balls on top--rich without being heavy, indulgent without being over the top. One of those pastries that makes you stop mid-bite and reassess your priorities. I'm not gonna lie--I almost didn't want to leave a review because I kind of wanted to keep this place to myself. But alas... everyone deserves a good plug. read more

What cute little bakery! Placed a Too Good To Go order and went to pick it up. Also purchased a day old sourdough loaf. The gentleman working was super friendly! Will definitely be back! read more

Got several things to include a couple chocolate croissants. I feel like any bakery that sells croissants should be judged on those. These were crisp with a good ratio of chocolate to croissant. They use good chocolate. I actually ate mine the next day and warmed it up in the microwave for a few seconds. Despite these conditions normally affecting the quality, these were still good! read more

I love your bakery. I've been coming every Saturday for bread and a croissant for almost two years now. You've never disappointed me. Thank you, and wishing you all the best! read more

The hype is real about Bake Sale Indy! The pastries are artistic with a unique blend of flavors. The breads are chewy and crave worthy. Southern-trained, Chef Cuyler Reeves has raised the bar for area bakeries. The bakery is small, upscale and trendy near 62th and Allisonville Road. There is no seating inside, but there are a few benches outside to enjoy a pastry. Most patrons take their orders to go. I could not wait to dig in so opted to eat on the outdoor bench. The case is filled with amazing croissants, biscuits and Reeves rendition of pop tarts. Tempting pies and cakes fill another case. The bread shelf was almost empty but additional bread was available behind the counter. I selected a strawberry lemon pop tart. The tart was the best sticky mess that I've sunken my teeth into. The crust was buttery and flaky, the lemon curd was subtle and the strawberry topping was fresh and sweet. My husband had one of the enormous Southern buttermilk biscuits. The biscuit was crusty on the outside, but soft and flaky on the inside - a winner in my book. I also grabbed a loaf of the sourdough bread, at the recommendation of fellow Yelper, Nicole. The bread is airy and doughy delicious, great for sandwiches or morning toast. There's plenty of parking in the small strip mall. I'll be a regular at the shop. read more

After a couple years of buying their goods at the Broad Ripple farmer's market, I finally made it to their storefront. They have a vast selection of options, even on a weekend around noon. The cranberry walnut was my go-to at their farmer's market stand. My favorites when I went in-store, were the spinach and feta croissant, guava cheese cream cheese croissant, and peanut butter chocolate cookie. I had their focaccia, and want to try out their other breads too. Employees were friendly and greeted customers as they came into the store. A very welcoming environment. Parking is plenty, as they are located in a shopping center. read more

Flat-out the best bakery in the city with Renee's being the only contender. Baguettes and French loaf bread have the perfect texture, and croissants are better than most I've had in France! Sweet items also excellent, and the whole tira mi su I bought was a huge hit with everyone. read more

I was having brunch at Fire and Ice Cafe when my friend told me about Bake Sale Indy which is in the same strip mall. I had never heard of Bake Sale Indy, so of course, I had to come check it out. This is a small bakery in a strip mall off of Allisonville Road, but what a display of pastries and pies that had available for purchase. The pecan pie is their best seller from what my friend told me, but I did not see one available for purchase. They did take orders for Thanksgiving from what I could see, and the orders were pulling up for pecan pies based on what I heard from the staff. They had a special feature where they had a box of day old sourdough bread that was complimentary to anyone who wants a loaf of bread, no questions asked. Since people are going through hard times, this was a wonderful idea to help those who are in need for food and I thought it was a very nice gesture for the bakery to offer this to people. The selection of croissants and muffins was very impressive, along with the variety of sourdough breads. I decided to get a loaf of the cherry almond Sourdough bread, along with a pecan pie monkey bread and a slice of sweet potato pie to go. Everything was pure heaven!! The cherry almond Sourdough bread was extremely fresh and delicious. The pecan pie monkey bread was fluffy and fresh, and tastes amazing! The sweet potato pie was one of the best sweet potato pies I have ever had in my life! It had just the right amount of sweet potatoes and the taste was impressive in my mouth! I will come back to Bake Sale Indy just for the sweet potato pie, but will try to get the pecan pie as well because I do want to see how good it really is according to my friend. A wonderful bakery in Indy and you definitely get your money's worth for what you pay for, so it is a win-win for the customer. Come check it out! read more

Excellent baked goods! Since moving to the area a couple of years ago this has been a recent find and Bake Sale Indy is now our go to place for Croissants and bread! read more

I absolutely love that Bake Sale Indy has opened a storefront in the neighborhood! I love the location, it's easy to get to and has tons of parking. If you frequent the Broad Ripple farmers market you'll find Bake Sale Indy there on Saturday. With that being said, the storefront is not open on Saturday. I do wish they had weekend hours. The staff was very friendly when I walked in and went over all the bread and pasty offerings for the day. Everything I tried was absolutely delicious and the storefront looked great. read more

The service is always excellent, everyone who I've interacted with at Bake Sale Indy is very kind. I haven't been to the physical location but have had the opportunity to visit the many times at the Broad Ripple Farmer's Market, and their treats are always delightful! If you're a sugar fanatic like me, you'll LOVE the sugar crunch croissant :) I've also enjoyed the butter and chocolate croissants and both are just the right amount of flakey. Thanks for always getting it right, bake sale Indy! read more

One of the most unique new foodie spots in Indianapolis. This is a must try. The quality and service is unmatched!

I love bake sale! I go way too often, but I never regret it. Today I got the pumpkin spice with chocolate pastry and apple pecan roll. They were both delicious! The coconut delight is my go to favorite. read more

Get the bread. Specifically, the sourdough loaf. Ask for it to be sliced. Then, take it home, all nice and fresh and perfect. Hopefully, you have some good salted butter at home (preferably Irish salted butter, but French butter will do in a pinch). Toast a slice of your Bake Sale sourdough loaf, spread some good salted butter on it, and you have yourself a perfect snack. I didn't visit Bake Sale to get a loaf of sourdough -- I just wanted to get something sweet. But they had a few lovely loaves left over at the end of the day, and I thought, what the heck. I lucked out and got the last sourdough boule. When I visited, they also had loaves of three-seed whole wheat sourdough and cherry-pecan sourdough. Obviously, I need to come back and try all of the other bread. Like I said, I didn't initially visit Bake Sale for the bread, but I ended up falling in love with it because it's amazing. However, the other baked goods should be mentioned, too! These guys seem to specialize in laminated pastries (aka croissants). On the day I visited, the case included butter croissants, mixed berry almond croissants, pastelitos, and pb&j croissants. They were all sold out of their kouign-amann and cinnamon rolls. The woman in front of me came for their chocolate croissants and was disappointed to learn that they, too, were all sold out. Like any great bakery, it pays to visit Bake Sale early, because you're more likely to find what you seek. For my sweet treat, I got the mixed berry almond croissant, which was great but just a touch too sweet for me. It has berry jam inside the croissant, as well as a berry glaze on top, so there is a lot of sweetness going on. That didn't stop me from devouring the entire thing as I was driving, but still. Bake Sale does not have any seating inside, so plan to just grab your goodies and go. read more

Every item is delicious...however the croissants are the best...a nice combination of sweet and savoury items available...sometimes too many choices...what a wonderful dilemma! read more

Love the ambiance of the store with a small boutique feel. The Kouign-aman was exceptional! Great flavor with layers of decadence! Purchased a loaf of bread labeled sour dough. The bread was excellent! However it had no sour dough flavor or sour dough ingredients on the label. It did have a slight taste of rye, which was on the ingredients. It was apparently mislabeled? Still very good bread, just not what I expected. Will definitely be returning to try additional items. Service was friendly! read more

The pear orange monkey bread was phenomenal!!! Reasonably priced and the shop is super cute as well! Will definitely be back soon. read more

I'm almost embarrassed that I discovered Bake Sale Indy because of Yelp Elite Nicole S.'s review of this newly established artisanal bakery at 62nd and Allisonville Road. This is really my neighborhood, or at least close to my neighborhood, and definitely an area where I hang out a lot with Glendale Town Center nearby, the newly relocated Glendale Branch Library, and a handful of businesses at this very corner that I frequent (Some Guys, Big Lots, Taylor's, Ace, etc.). I'd been wondering what was going into this spot, however, it appears they got up and going while I wasn't looking. So, as soon as I saw Nicole's review I decided to rush over. First off, you may be saying "Why open here with Taylor's right across the street?" It's really worth noting that both belong. Taylor's is a more traditional bakery with a strong emphasis on donuts/cakes. Bake Sale Indy is an artisanal bakery emphasizing breads, pastries, and more. Truthfully, there's very little overlap and they're both a delight. As is nearly always true for bakeries of any type, visiting in the earlier parts of the day is best. They do run out, though it also sounds like they're figuring out what the demand is going to be. Bake Sale Indy is a start-up that you can also find at Broad Ripple Farmer's Market. The place has a definite farmer's market vibe. It's simple yet effective and feels warm and welcoming. You can also pre-order and the website indicates an interest in wholesale orders. Items include a wide variety of croissants, breads, sourdough loaves, baguettes, and more. You can kind of get an idea on their website, though it also seems like they branch out. Because Nicole had mentioned their selling out of chocolate croissants, I made sure to arrive early. Score! I snagged it. I ate it. I loved it. I may have had an orgasm. Seriously, this is such a lovely addition to this corner. This is an ever-improving corner that has experienced renovation and growth recently and Bake Sale Indy is a great addition. There are curb cuts here, however, I would note it's a little wonky in terms of wheelchair access. There's an attempt at ADA by the landlord, though it honestly falls a bit short. Also, if you want to visit Big Lots after coming here - if you are in a wheelchair you can't take the sidewalk as there's a step between two sections of the building. So, you'll have to use the parking lot (which does work). There are accessible parking spots, however, and generally the pylons along the parking row are just wide enough that a wheelchair can fit through. It's also worth noting that this is carry-out only. I'm excited about Bake Sale Indy and look forward to returning in the very near future. read more

Bake Sale Indy is my new favorite neighborhood source for pastries and bread! The team is passionate about their work and it shows in the taste, quality, and appearance of their goods. I love that they also offered their day-old bread for a discount - it ended up being cheaper than I could get from the grocery store. I plan to regularly stop by Bake Sale Indy for every occasion - a tasty treat, breakfast pastries for hosting, or a loaf of bread with my regular meals. read more

My wife and I visited this couple at the Broadripple farmers market and the sourdough bread and croissants they make are wonderful. It seems they are always coming up with new combinations. Today I got the cherry pecan sourdough and the strawberry almond croissant. As I write this, they are celebrating day 2 of being open. read more

Finally, we don't have to wait until Saturdays (Broad Ripple Farmers Market) to get the best bread in the Indianapolis area! The store also carries more delicious baked goods options than can be brought to the weekly farmers market. Make sure to check out the "biscuit as big as your head" when picking up your fresh bread, croissants, and other baked sweets. read more

Expertly executed classics, bold flavors and unexpected new obsessions. This place has it all. Worth an early morning trip for your family, friends or colleagues. They will thank you. read more

Bread and pastries are amazing. Shop is very inviting. Service is outstanding. Love it they are open on Sunday.

My husband really liked their sourdough bread. The inside was super cute and clean. I didn't try any of their pastries but this was my first time so I kind of wanted to check everything out that I had seen online. The staff was friendly as well! read more

Bake Sale Indy was everything I had hoped it would be from reading the reviews. It's a small, intimate storefront with a very kind baker working behind the counter. I got a cinnamon roll and a chocolate croissant. Boy, when they said the chocolate croissant had more chocolate than expected, they weren't wrong, and I am HERE for it! I love chocolatey chocolate croissants! It was so flakey and wonderful-- hands down in the top 2 best chocolate croissants I've had in Indy. I also got a cinnamon roll which the baker said was one of the best in the city and again, she was right! Perfect texture, wonderful balance of icing to dough, and man, it's gonna be hard to try other things when the two I tried above were so good!! Of note, I did come very close to opening time so everything was still available. Prices were a little high (read: ~$6 a pastry) but hey it's a small business and they are using quality ingredients! Overall, 10/10 recommend this bakery. read more

Amazing croissants!!! Guava cream cheese is my favorite. Followed closely by the chocolate! Highly recommend!

This place has great sourdough (I'm a SD snob) and sweets. Prices are in line w others. I think the name is a bit odd but...‍ I didn't know this place existed and I just happened upon it. May need some more visibility as I hope they make it. Opened in June/July this year. Next to Some Guys on Allisonville. read more

The family loves this spot! Would highly recommend this place and the staff is very friendly.
