Every time i went to go to try this bakery they were closed! Today was my lucky day! Clean and uniquely furnished. Staff greeted you right when you walked in. Family recipes made with fresh ingredients. I have nothing bad to say about anything we tried. Key lime cupcake, lemon curd and vanilla cake, carrot cake and a brownie. All equally amazing 5/5! Well worth the wait
Always a great experience! I have been coming her for years. The place is charming and the people are so nice. There is a seating area in the back with chairs and tables to relax or do work. Always a great selection of baked goods that change with the seasons. They offer a drink selection as well
The first thing I noticed when I walked in was that it was awkwardly silent. I later realized that there was a speaker near the cash register very quietly playing music but I highly recommend that they turn it up or add more speakers because it's a weird silent vibe. The space is lovely with a huge variety of beautiful baked goods ranging from cookies to brownies to carrot cake to peach turnovers. I ended up having the German chocolate whoopie pie and loved it. The textures worked together perfectly and the cake portion wasn't too sweet but the inside was sweet with big chunks of coconut and pecans(?). Loved every bite. I also had an iced coffee and theirs is pretty meh. Honestly, I probably won't be back but I did enjoy my mid-day dessert!
Fantastic plexiglass separation measures for COVID. Very friendly staff and lots of delicious baked goods. Nary a raisin in sight and the staff agreed raisins don't belong in the oatmeal cookies or carrot cake here which is awesome! The mushroom puff was so deliciously flaky and flavorful- definitely a must-try. Really a gem this place is in little Oberlin. The oatmeal cookie was without raisins which is great. It was sweet, chewy, and deliciously moist. The cornflake cookie was just the right mix of caramel, chewy, crispy, salty, and sweet. The cinnamon sugar donut didn't have the lightly crispy fried outside that makes a donut perfect specimen. It was instead just sort of sweet bread puff that was very unremarkable. The peanut butter cookie sandwich was delightfully nutty and not to sweet (but just enough)! I cannot emphasize enough how perfect their chocolate chip cookie was. It ranks among the top five I've had in my life and that is incredibly impressive. It was ideally sweet yet had notes of bittersweet chocolate. It had a tiny note of salt. It was dense but not too thick- moist but not falling apart. Not crumbly at all. It was just absolutely perfect! I am floored!
Just had a near religious experience with a chocolate croissant here today. The coffee is still good. The staff is still very pleasant. A small public restroom in the back is a nice add from the last time I was here. Small sitting room in back gives it a grandma's cottage ambiance. But the star of the show was the chocolate croissant. Not sure how I'm ever going to go back to store bought now. Wish I had taken a picture before I devoured it.
Another good place for baked goods. Blue Rooster Bakehouse is one of the best places in Oberlin. They open early so you can start the morning off with a coffee and pastry. It's not a big place but it has places to sit inside. The pastries are fresh and there's vegan choices too. I popped in early one morning. I needed a coffee and was hungry, and this was one of the few places open. The inside smelled so good, and it made me even hungrier so I definitely needed a pastry. Coffee here is kind of limited but it was still good. The one flavor they had was about $2 for a medium. As for the pastries they turned out to be even better. They had a few vegan selections. One that made my mouth water was the vegan ham and cheese. This one was about $3, but it was large and stuffed. It was sitting in the cooler. The owner asked if I wanted it warmed up, and that was definitely the right thing. It tasted very good with the melted pretend cheese. There were other vegan pastries that day cupcakes and muffins. It was very good for pastries with no dairy or eggs. It's a good place for doing work or just relaxing. They also have free wifi.
A must stop in Oberlin! This small bakehouse really packs a wallop with choices and flavors. For the size of the shop you would have no idea that they would have so many pastries to choose from each day. I can never pick just one or two items and usually end up buying a loaded box of goodies. Some of my favorites have been the chocolate bundt cake, chocolate whoopie pie and slices of any of their cakes!
Cutest find! Love the coziness atmosphere of this bakery. My sister and I tried the pesto croissant and brown sugar coffee cake and of course yummy black coffee. Yum!! Hope to come back in the future!
I went here for the Cupcake Crawl. Unfortunately, when I made it there, there was only 3 left. The main thing the sold was cakes. The flavor I got was carrot cake. I was nervous since there was hardly any icing. It was delicious. There were raisins in the batter. The flavor was just enough, not over powering or sugary. I saw a banana split cake there that looked to die for. So now I wonder how it taste. I will go back to find out. This was my fourth cupcake I tasted and by far the best so far.
My wife and I finished checking out the Farmers Market (which was tiny and not worth the trip). I was in the mood for a coffee and a pastry. We had noticed the Blue Rooster on prior visits to Oberlin and so decided to give it a try. We were warmly greeted by, who I believe to be, the husband and wife owners. The place is relatively small. There is a counter top running along the wall on the left, which can accommodate a handful of people and two small tables in the main room. There appeared to be another room toward the back as well. The coffee was very good. I order a cherry turnover, which was OK. The pastry itself was good. However, there was a minimal amount of cherry filling. Also, the prices were a little high.
First time visitor and found the bakery displays to be extremely nice. The atmosphere is cute and homey. I wasn't hungry but my husband got a cherry turnover and a cup of decaf. The coffee was freshly brewed with a mixture of beans and he liked it. The turnover was good but he had hoped for more filling. Prices seemed a bit high to me, but to have a business in a small town, you need to go that route.
Blue Rooster Bakehouse - Oberlin, Ohio Driving through Oberlin, I was looking for a good cup of coffee and decided to stop in at Blue Rooster Bakehouse. The menu is written on a chalkboard, and there's a display case showing off all their fresh pastries and treats. I was hoping for something savory, and the barista mentioned the only option was a cheese croissant. It wasn't shaped like a traditional croissant, but the dough was flaky and buttery, filled with jalapeño and cream cheese, and finished with a sprinkle of salt on top -- surprisingly delicious. I ordered a Doppio, which I later learned is a double shot of espresso. It was strong, smooth, and paired perfectly with my pastry. I also picked up a slice of gluten-free banana bread for my husband. They had about four gluten-free/vegan options available, and everything looked freshly baked. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the space itself was cozy, seating around 15 people. However, accessibility could be an issue -- the narrow layout and tight walkway would make it difficult for anyone using a wheelchair to navigate. My total came to around $12, which felt reasonable for a specialty coffee and baked goods treat. Overall, it's a charming little spot with quality coffee and friendly service -- a place I'd return to when I'm in the area and want to splurge a little. read more
Wow. The difficulty in a place like this lies in the narrowing down and decision making on what to get. If I could, I would have gotten one of everything. We finally settled on oatmeal cookie (man it's so good), fig/goat cheese/pear pastry, berry pastry, americano, and a chai latte with oat milk. We had a blast eating outdoors at the picnic bench, nice breeze even on an August morning! If we're ever in town again, this will be our Go To spot for sure. read more
5 stars? Yeah. We were lucky to arrive when they opened. Friends suggested this to us. It was delightful. The inside was ecclectic and fun. Just like their food. Perfectly baked and spiced with enough sugar to make me content this was a home run for sweets. Their cakes though. O-M-G delicious. read more

Very cute bakery with a large selection of delicious baked goods. We stopped in on a Saturday and found a counter with plate after plate of baked goods to choose from. There were also more baked goods available behind the main counter. The employees were also restocking items that were getting low. It was definitely an impressive selection of cupcakes, cookies, bars, turnovers, and cake by the slice. Several of the items offered were gluten free and those items were labeled accordingly. We chose a Chocolate Pecan Toffee Cookie, Lemon Blueberry Bar, and Strawberry Turnover Pastry. The cookie was very good and tasted like it was made from scratch. The chocolate in the cookie had a lovely rich flavor. I thought the lemon bar was pretty good and my dad had the same opinion. My mom really enjoyed the Strawberry Turnover. Don't miss this bakery if you are in the downtown Oberlin area! read more

Nestled in the quaint little college town of Oberlin, you will find one of the cutest and coziest little bakeries. I came across this little shop while participating in the Lorain County Cupcake Crawl http://visitloraincounty.com/cupcake-crawl/, which by the way, is a great way to discover some really cool bakeries, in some really neat locations. Blue Roster is a small little bakery with a nice selection of sweetbreads, pastries, cookies, cakes and of course, cupcakes. In all fairness, I can only comment on the cupcakes since that's all that I tried. I tried their chocolate and it was "good." A little on the dry side, as many chocolate cakes are. The highlight of the experience, however, was just being there. They have a nice little eating area separated from the bakery case in the front of the house, with comfy chairs and fire place. It was a lot of fun to sit there with my girlfriend and her daughter and enjoy our indulgences. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to visit Blue Rooster Bakehouse, but if you find yourself in Oberlin, I would certainly recommend stopping in for a treat! read more

From the moment you walk in, the warmth of this place comes at you with delight from the large picture window. We were greeted by the owner, Wendy. Her husband who she bakes with and runs this fabulous Bakehouse, was there as well. My mom got a vegan, a vegan and gluten-free, and a regular baked item. I got a delicious pumpkin cupcake. The cookies and other baked goods looked amazing. I walked to where they had a cutout in the brick which draws you deeper into the Bakehouse and there was this cozy room with seating and a fireplace. I fell in love! I wish we had been there earlier or later as we could have had a coffee and sat there with our treat, but we needed lunch. Wendy told us about a few establishments and the food they served and shared that their breads and desserts could also be found at the Corner Joint. I was sold, and so glad for it because it is AMAZING! If you're in Oberlin, don't miss either of these. If you're not, go NOW! It's such a great college town and we enjoyed the owners and the establishments we stopped into. Everyone was so friendly, kind, and helpful. read more

Super cute inside. We have been there twice and the service is fantastic. We had the salted Carmel brownie and the kitchen sink brownie and both were delicious. We can't wait to try the salted Carmel cupcake and lemon curd cheesecake cupcake that we got too. Fat kid paradise. read more
