    This is a super cute bakery located near downtown Sheboygan. I wish I could have stayed for a cup of coffee, as the restaurant area was welcoming with a huge picture window that just called to be sat by. I needed two dozen assorted doughnuts for work. The lady behind the counter was very polite and did a great job picking out a variety. The doughnuts were top notch!!! I will visit again.

    Went for the first time today because I needed to get something last minute for a coworker's birthday. Was pretty busy with a pleasant atmosphere. Smells were amazing. You immediately see the large case of cookies, and then donuts. Great selection with some fun topping choices like butterfinger and fruity pebbles. The employee who helped me was very nice. I think she knew I hadn't been there before because trying to decide a selection of a dozen donuts was difficult (in a good way!), so I decided to just let her pick a random selection for me. Got an iced caramel macchiato for myself which was very good. I didn't realize that they had a case of assorted cakes that I could have got for my coworkers birthday after I had already bought the donuts. This is in no way the fault of the shop because it's literally across from the donut case. I just didn't notice because it's a lot to take in! Anyway, will definitely return. The only critique I have is that you cannot add a tip if you're paying with a card. I never carry cash so I felt really bad that I couldn't tip the lady that helped me. They should change that somehow. Other than that, great place!

    We arrived at Johnston's Bakery after 9 AM on a Thursday. It has great parking across the street. I loved the nostalgic feel with a group of retired locals laughing at a table nearby. We were instantly helped by the friendly workers. A young lady recommended the cherry and cream cheese danish. It was a perfect ratio of pasty and filling. My sister enjoyed the cherry turnover, but she wasn't a fan of the crueler. The bakery has over 9 inside tables ranging from 2 to 5 seats. There is also a private room that accommodates a larger group. There is even more seating outside in the back. It seems like a nice place to relax and socialize or co-work from.

    Came by here after checking out Bookworms Garden. Got the raspberry elephant ear and cinnamon roll donut. Boy, the elephant ear was at least 5 lbs and delicious! I ate 1/3 and couldn't eat anymore. Loads of raspberries preserves and cream cheese for less than $3. The donut was fluffy and soft. They got the weekend special $1.2 for a dozen giant cake donut holes. Their interior, ceiling fans are so cool. Definitely must return when in area.

    Great cinnamon roll from start to finish! Soft warm inside with perfect amount of cinnamon to glazed frosting! Would go back to Sheboygan just for this cinnamon roll!

    Various pastries

    Amazing selection of pastries and friendly service! Will certainly be back and can't wait to try out an espresso drink

    Beautiful exterior of Johnston's Bakery on Superior Ave.

    Super fun to "get bakery" at Johnston's. We over ordered every visit! Of course they have donuts. Normal delicious donuts, not doughnuts drowned in toppings, trying too hard to be special. Better yet, there are so many other delicious treats, many I've never seen before. The smile sugar cookies are the real deal. I don't even like sugar cookies. These have actual flavor (hints of spice maybe)! There's a morning bun with cinnamon and a little apple - delish. Famous Sheboygan hard rolls seemed to be flying off the shelves as locals picked up big quantities. The staff was also friendly, attentive and patient. One staff member saw our indecisiveness and did mention to us that we could safely come back after lunch! Apparently, they do another fry midday to ensure items are available in the afternoon. This was on a Saturday.

    Their donuts are a work of art. When visiting my family in the Sheboygan area, I love to make a little pit stop here! The pirces are great.

When I walked in, I was greeted by the familiar smell of fresh baked cakes and cookies. One of my childhood friend's family owned a bakery. There was only one little cake was left when we arrived. I wasn't thinking ahead, so that was my fault, but also a good sign! It wasn't fancy, but just the perfect amount. I also bought some of the beautifully decorated flower sugar cookies. While I was waiting to pay, an older gentleman commented to me that he worked there 62 years ago as a junior in high school, and the recipes have not changed since then. I was sold! When it came time to celebrate my friend's birthday, my whole group agreed that their chocolate cake and cookies brought them back to their childhoods. There was something about moist, light and fluffy chocolate cake with just enough frosting... Thank you for our happy flashback to simpler times! I will definitely be back for more goodies!

    Made a reservation for Mother's Day breakfast at Taverne on Woodlake. The restaurant opened at…read more11:00 AM and we had an 11:15 AM reservation. We arrived about 10 minutes early, checked in with the hostess, and were told that due to the volume of reservations they were seating strictly on schedule, so we were asked to wait at the bar. Fair enough. When I made the reservation, I had noted that they were offering a "make your own mimosa bar," which sounded like a nice touch for Mother's Day. My mom and I planned to participate, so I asked whether we could get a mimosa from the station while we waited and either pay for it immediately or add it to our final bill. We were told no -- that we had to wait until we were seated. That seemed unnecessarily rigid given that we were already checked in and simply waiting for our table. The mimosa bar itself was also underwhelming. The champagne was pre-poured into plastic flutes and sitting out getting warm, while the juice options (orange, pomegranate, and "strawberry shortcake?") were also sitting out and not kept on ice. Overall, it did not feel particularly fresh or elevated. One of the specials was the "pendulum pancake." While the presentation is certainly novel -- the pancakes arrive hanging from a stake, swinging above the plate -- the actual dish was disappointing. The pancakes were quite small, with sliced banana layered between them, and overall the presentation looked sparse and a little tragic rather than indulgent or impressive. The rest of the food we ordered was fine. I had the standard breakfast, my husband ordered the chicken sandwich, and my dad had the burger. Ironically, the real standout of the meal was the fries. They also had a DJ playing during brunch. I understand the atmosphere they were trying to create, but that aspect also fell a bit flat. There is a lot of potential for this to become a more curated and unique occasion-style brunch experience, but the execution currently does not fully support the concept.

    I'm sure the view is gorgeous in the summertime, but it was dark and late so we ate at the bar. The…read moreHugo Spritz was great, and I really liked the spicy rigatoni.
