    Bacon, egg, and cheese croissant
    Erikka T.

    Delicious food, fast service. Their drip coffee is delicious, smooth and not highly acidic. Their donuts are sweet, but not too sweet, we love the sprinkles! The power bowl had just the right amount of salty and savory that I wanted this morning. You can never go wrong with a bacon, egg and cheese croissant! It was fairly quiet in here today, but outside on the patio, everyone was enjoying the sunshine. We will definitely be back!

    Love the fresh brew and fresh donuts that they have. At one point they will have diy cookie decoration kits, trust when I say get it! They are fun for any age.

    Unfortunately I wasn't overly impressed with the bread assortment available here. The bread was good, but for the price it was just ok. Plus I must have been here on an off day, because contrary to the other reviews her, the service I received was anything but friendly. Since I don't live in the area, I am unlikely to travel to shop here.

    Awesome baked goods. Got a random box of pastries as well as a random bag of breads and they were all good. Definitely go for the baked goods! Unfortunately I wasn't impressed with the Blueberry Matcha Latte, it was extremely watery. Faint matcha taste and the blueberry pieces were a bit annoying while imparting no flavor. Basically a watered down matcha milk flavor.

    Great place to walk to on a Sunday morning! It's right off the Monon at 54th Street, with plenty of parking and indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of products to purchase inside as well! Service was fast and friendly! We ordered the Broad Ripple breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. The burrito was really good but the dill sauce that comes with it was so good! I should have ordered an extra! I also got an affogato and a blueberry matcha. My husband got the coconut latte and all the drinks were tasty. Cute place with good drinks/food!

    This place is so nice in the inside. They have some delicious pastries, cakes and drinks. I had bought something on TooGoodToGo which is what prompted me to go here to this bakery. I was excited to try something new. While picking up my order I had got a drink which was really good. The price of the drink was reasonable. The red velvet cake was delicious it was made just right. Customer service was great. The cashier answered any questions I had. If you are ever in the Broad Ripple area make sure to stop here to try this place out. You will not be disappointed.

    Nice bakery/ coffee shop. Big enough to dine in and there is also outside seating. It has an inviting atmosphere and a nice staff. I had a pumpkin latte with oat milk and a blueberry Danish. They both were average.The latte could have used a little more flavor and I would have preferred a flakier crust on the danish.

    This place is a cute little stop right off the Monon, and is a very average place to grab a coffee and a treat in the morning. Not too expensive if you get a small coffee and a pastry, we got 2 iced lattes, a doughnut, and a croissant, and all of it was pretty average. Nothing amazing, but got the job done. Service at the counter was fine as well. We got here shortly after opening time on Sunday morning, and we can tell it's a cute spot, just not our cup of coffee if you get what I mean. We will likely stop in again if we are close and walking on the Monon.

    Having a wheelchair ramp is great, though this one has a bit of a lip and gravel at the entrance.

    I'd long wanted to check out BreadWorks at Broad Ripple, though with their exclusively daytime hours it has limited my options to either weekends or holidays or a random day off. Sadly, I'd just never made it until I finally decided to visit on this July 4th weekend. Taking over the spot vacated by the beloved Locally Owned Gardens, BreadWorks offers: 1) Coffee roasted by Chicago-based Sparrow Coffee (including a variety of coffee and tea options. 2) A variety of drink options from Coke products to Simplicity Juices (which is a neighbor here in basically what qualifies as SoBro). 3) A variety of donuts all reasonably priced (nearly all are $1.50 with Long Johns being the most expensive at $2). 4) Pastries 5) Breads 6) and a variety of sandwiches that are all available from open to close. I would say the in-store menu was a bit more extensive than the online menu. For example, the in-store menu included some limited alcohol options (as I recall, it was wine). BreadWorks is very inspired by the Parisian bakeries and is decorated with a similar simplicity and style. There's nothing particularly "fancy" here, but it's comfortable with mostly neutral tones. In terms of accessibility, BreadWorks has two accessible parking spots on the westside of their building. They also have an outdoor dining area that is rather large and has a nice accessible ramp to it, though it does have a bit of a lip and the sidewalk right at the entrance is a bit broken. I actually had to set my drink down, get on the ramp, then pick up my drink and make my way up to their deck. The indoor area is somewhat congested (seems to nearly always be true in Broad Ripple/SoBro). However, I was able to make my way around and get wherever I needed. Also, people in this area are just super friendly and the employees were friendly. For $7.03, I had two chocolate glazed yeast donuts (red/white/blue sprinkles given the holiday) and a 24-ounce iced coffee. All were enjoyable. I was especially fond of the coffee. BreadWorks is located right off the Monon Trail. I noticed a good number of people were detouring on/off the trail and visiting. Dogs are welcome on the deck. I really liked this visit quite a bit. The atmosphere was winning, the employees were friendly, the donuts were good (not great), the iced coffee was pretty awesome, and there was a sense of "village" here I enjoyed. I'm not quite ready to call this a 5-star experience, however, there's no question it was a solid 4-star one and there's no doubt I'll be returning as this is only a few minutes from my home.

    This is the cutest place tucked away - save the traffic and hassle of parking in downtown broad ripple for your breakfast needs and instead hit this spot up! Amazing coffee, delicious breakfast and lunch options, killer donuts. The staff was super patient as I couldn't decide what to get - they made great recommendations! Perfect meetup for locals, ample parking, plenty indoor seating with floor to ceiling windows for that indoor/outdoor feeling. Today was my first time in for coffee and I ended up picking up breakfast sandwiches as well. Their food is made fresh every morning - including their donuts! #Yum! Outdoor patio is very family and dog friendly.

    Lovely spot for a coffee and meet up or a quick lunch. We didn't stay too long but saw a lot of options that made us curious and want to come back again when we were hungry. Loved their ambience and the spaciousness of the space for chats and just hanging out. It looks like a great spot for sitting with coffee to read a book!

    My first new-business visit of the year and I loved it! First of all, I recommend visiting on a sunny day. The sun pours through the big windows and makes the space feel so airy and light. Secondly, the women at the counter were friendly and the manager was super impressive. He was working hard and sincerely thanking customers for stopping in. They had bags of coffee beans, packaged slices of homemade lemon poppy seed and chocolate pound cakes, packaged cake jars, and loaves of fresh bread arranged on shelves when you walk in. They also have a glass case of baked goods and sandwiches, as well as a back wall full of bakery items such as donuts and apple fritters. They had a pretty big menu of hot breakfast and lunch items too. I ordered the breakfast burrito and asked if I could have it without cheese and they said it was no problem - awesome! That means they make it from scratch too which I love. The burrito was soooooo good and filling. I loved the thick chunks of potato and subtle spice from the chorizo. Yum. I also got a Simplicity Juice with my meal and love that they carry another local vendor. There were several people working at the cafe tables inside and I'll definitely be back to do the same. I'd love if there was a GF bread option too in the future!

    This was a good location in SoBro near the Monon. They also have a patio area. I kept raving about the breakfast sandwich. The mix of cheese, avocado, and Mayo with the homemade croissant, egg, and bacon was soo good. I also got a carmel iced latte and it was very good. Their coffee is from Sparrow Coffee in Chicago and they have grounds for sale as well. The decor was cute with the rolling pins hanging from the ceiling. They also had a lot of natural light coming in the cafe which kept it a nice and bright first experience. I'd like to try more of their baked goods so I will be back. From what I could tell it was dog friendly too.

I like to eat this bread plain, with cheese, or make a sandwich with it. I also purchased a chocolate croissant (I love me a good chocolate croissant) and it was so flaky, buttery, and filling, very delicious. I warmed it up a bit at home and enjoyed every bite of it.

The pastries I bought are really temperature sensitive and need to be kept cold. Both had a cream - mousse inside. They wouldn't last long only a day or to the next. I loved the pecan item I ordered. It was great! The tiramisu one I wouldn't order again. The bottom flakey part was so bitter. I love coffee and expresso and tiramisu.

The bitter taste of espresso paired with the sweet mascarpone cream filling reminded me of the holidays when I would watch my mom make tiramisu for our family. While a lot of people prefer a sweeter espresso, I thought this was perfect and very true to a traditional tiramisu taste The Pear Kouglof reminded me of a fresh yeast donut that's been tossed in sugar This was a very kid-friendly pastry in taste and while I wasn't too blown away by it, it did make me wonder if I would have preferred it with a stronger, more potent, fruit. The Cherry Basque Cheesecake -- this pastry was the house favorite. The texture of this cheesecake was creamy, but somehow still spongey.. cakey, but more like pudding. Mix that with the juiciest sour cherries and the crunch of a biscoff crust.. mind blown was an understatement. We're looking forward to what Beurre Sec has planned for their next pop-up
