Ugh this place is so cute. You just go and order at the window, they have a couple picnic tables but you mostly can take it to go and walk down to the water. They always have fun baked goods- cookies are great, scone was pretty good too. Their bagel sandwiches are solid. Feels very local, like a hidden gem. Haven't tried their coffee but I've heard it's good read more

I got a large pistachio latte($7) and it was made in about 5 minutes. The drink was pretty solid and balance. They are a window order and pickup spot. The pastries did look good, but I didn't get anything. Staff were friendly! Overall a good experience! read more

Lis Bake Shop - Desserts Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

Liz Bake Shop is the definition of a hidden gem. Tucked away in a small, hole-in-the-wall spot, it consistently delivers baked goods of exceptional quality. Every item feels crafted with care, and you can taste the difference in the freshness and flavor. What makes this place stand out even more is the superb service. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming--it's the kind of hospitality that makes you want to come back again and again. It may be a small shop, but the warmth, consistency, and quality here are huge. If you're in Mystic and craving something sweet or freshly baked, Liz Bake Shop is a must-visit. Cheers read more

Came during the off season so it wasn't super busy and lots of parking. The inside was closed to the public so it was just window access and also they were only accepting cash at that time. We got two breakfast sandwiches and one of them we chose with pastrami. Never had a pastrami breakfast sandwiches but it was very good! read more

So 5 stars because the food, service and ambiance were all wonderful. It helps that since Lis only has walk up service, that the ambiance was provided by a sunny, cool, windless day sitting beside a glass like river view. Cinnamon roll was spot on, and coffee mild and at a good price. read more

Warning! They close before posted hours and the ladies inside were extremely rude and argumentative about it right off the bat -- absolutely no reason for that kind of attitude or treatment and couldn't even hear what they were on about (I don't have bad hearing). Used to be my favorite place but what I experienced that day was unacceptable, won't be returning. read more

This place is outstanding, every time we visit! The iced chia latte is delicious and every sandwich, baked good and quiche is on point. Worth a visit or 10! read more

Always great! The pastrami egg and cheese is the best!! The lemon bars are a must have!!

Lis bake shop is a great local spot, serving fresh made sweet treats. They have great cupcakes and cookies and the selection is always changing. I hear they make a killer breakfast sandwich but I haven't tried one yet. I really feel like they are a great spot to grab a snack at. It really feels like a mom and pop kinda vibe in trendy downtown mystic, read more

Perfect every time. Walk-up only, but their pastries and coffee are what we crave whenever we come to Mystic. Staff are friendly, and almost always a good long queue of locals. AND they have the best breakfast sandwich options in walking distance of the drawbridge. If you haven't tried Lis yet, you owe it to yourself! read more

Cool little shop. Not much seating, but the staff was super friendly. I ordered a coffee, a couple pastries, and a breakfast sandwich. All were pretty good. read more

Scones, cake flour? Fresh, the right amount of butter, mmmmm Tourist areas don't deserve this..: The coffee was fresh but not super strong... read more

The coffee was nothing to write home about- it tasted more like strongly flavored burnt water. The scone was nice and buttery/fluffy and the blueberry muffin was decent as well, but pretty sweet. I would come for the baked goods but pass on the coffee. You have to order at a walk up window and wait outside for the items, and there isn't much seating around. read more

This was a great experience ordering from Li's. I was scouring Yelp for coffee spots in Mystic. I got three lattes for the girls of the family. The girls need their coffee!! I wish I had time to come back to try some food. The window checkout is nice and the place is next to a dock of sorts, which is a nice change of pace to having to go physically into a store to buy some quick cups of Joe. It reminded me of the cafes I go to in my beach town. Was it the best latte I've ever had? Maybe not but they had tons of flavors! Overall great place to visit for quick service and no fuss coffee. read more

The baked goods we tried were delicious. Easily the best lemon blueberry bar I've ever had! Fresh and basically a piece of pie/cheesecake. Very friendly staff at the window, even though we made it there just before they were closing. Hope to visit Mystic and go back to try some other pastries and their breakfast sandwiches :) thank you!! read more

Great pastries and coffee. We waited in line for just a few minutes but it was moving quickly. We ordered and picked up at the window, then sat outside at one of the tables. We ordered an almond croissant, apple crumb cake, cupcake, latte, coffee. Delicious! Happy service with a smile. read more

This is my FAVORITE pickup spot. The food is so tasty and everyone is always so nice! I come here at least twice a week. I highly recommend the breakfast sandwiches! But honestly I love everything in the menu! read more

Picked up a couples breakfast items here while we were staying in Mystic. Got the almond croissant and the raspberry cheese croissant. The almond croissant didn't have a syringe almond taste but did have almonds in and on top. It was still tasty and flaky. Definitely something we would order again. The raspberry one was terrific. Plenty of raspberry and cheese and very flaky. A definite winner. Definitely will stop back when we are in town. read more

I live just down the street and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place. The staff is great! Casey, Johanna, Margaret, Trish, everyone! They make a killer chai latte (I grab two almost every day), and their baked goods are great - their scones are killer - especially their almond raspberry thumbprint scones! You can also grab breakfast sammys here. Our fave bakery in town by a mile! Window service only, so start your day with great food, drink, and a smile from the team here. read more

So yummy! I got an americano both times and the coffee itself was delicious. Yummy pastries too! Very cute local spot on the water. Always a long line for good reason! read more

Great coffee, delicious breakfast sandwiches and pastries! Great staff! So much better than Sift! Charming location right on the waterfront. Great vibe all around read more

Cute local shop right next to the water. So it's a beautiful location. It is small inside however there is bar style seating and outside seating. The menu includes: beverages, breakfast sandwhiches, and pastries. We tried the cinnamon chocolate scone and a sausage egg and cheese breakfast bagel. Both were very good. Prices were great. Enjoyable experience read more

We love the breakfast sandwiches here! Today we preordered them and my son picked up. I love the jalapeño bagel, the Asiago bagel and everything bagel. You can choose what you'd like on it such as egg, cheese, bacon , or sausage. The coffee is delicious and if you have a sweet tooth watch out! So many delectable treats to choose from. Yum!!!! read more

The baked goods and breakfast sandwiches are so wonderful. The attitude of the person who helped me crushed my excitement to be back there and show my friends this bakery! I will come back for the treats but hope they are nicer next time. read more

EVERYTHING IS EXCELLENT - Look no further. Cookies, cakes, cupcakes, brownies, bars, croissants, bagels, quiche; sammies and coffee too - anything you've ever dreamed and more. Special order for your special occasions! The menu is massive, and every single thing is ON POINT. Sweets, that aren't TOO sweet. Not once have I been underwhelmed by the massive flavors! Whoopie Pies, a personal favorite of mine, LIZ MAKES THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD. Just the right amount of sweetness, perfect filling, perfect cake.... mmmm. Want one now! Is it fall? Better try a pumpkin whoopie pie! Chocolate chip scone?? Sounds simple? Then how and why is it so delectable and complex? :) Russian tea cakes, melt in your mouth. Blueberry cheesecake square, what a way to start the day! I could go on and on. Do yourself a flavor, and ask if they have anything new to try when you're there. Liz is always creating new recipes, tinkering with new combinations, and hitting it out of the park! Sourced from the finest vendors, Lis' Bake Shop is turning out the most delectable baked goods, "this side of the Mississippi", according to this armchair food critic. read more

Open early, friendly service, delicious warm pastries. Apple turnover was the best I've had.

My family has lived in Mystic for more than 20 years, but we had not tried Lis before. A few years ago, I called and left a message inquiring about a wedding cake, but my call was never returned. More recently, someone suggested I try Lis, so I did (again). This time was more successful: I ordered a cake with an inscription on it. We went over the (very basic) inscription at least three times during the ordering process. $60+ for the cake. When I picked up the cake, however, the inscription was incorrect, so I asked that it be corrected. (Correcting in this case involved adding only a couple of punctuation marks. ) She seemed utterly put out by the request. You would have thought I had asked the cake be redone on the spot. In 18k gold. I was shocked - and put off - by the contemptuous attitude. I stood aside and patiently waited the five minutes it took to correct the order and then left. The cake itself was very good, but it was offset by the distain I was shown for having the temerity to ask that the cake please be what I ordered (and paid for!) - hence the lukewarm score. It occurred to me that had someone at Lis apologized for the error and inconvenience, maybe the effect of the attitude could have been mitigated. As it was, I was never in any danger of receiving an apology. Or a "thank you" for my business. read more

Cute little spot for a quick snack or coffee break. Great selection of desserts that definitely left my sweet tooth satisfied. We got the tuxedo cake and the lemon blueberry bar. Unfortunately I dropped my lemon blueberry bar and she kindly offered to give me another serving for free. She definitely did not have to do that. I also had my dog with me and the lady kindly offered my dog treats. I'm assuming she is the shop owner? She seemed to know many of her regulars by name. Absolutely loved this place. Will definitely be visiting again!! read more

I definitely wished they open one on the west coast in So Cali. I was visiting the area and definitely hit the place at start of the morning. The chocolate filled crossaint paired up with Sumatra Mandheling coffee made a gloomy cloudy morning great! The small and quaint shop can possibly sit 4-5 along the counter facing outside through the windows. The place felt very homey and the staff was warm and welcoming. The price was was fairly. Definitely would want to visit this place when visiting Mystic. read more

Lis Bake Shop always jade delicous coffee and baked good, but the wait is insane. It takes a crazy amount of time to produce a cup of coffee, even if your the only one there. Being down town mystic though, they do tend to be busy with lines around the building. read more

Everything I have tried here is delicious! Go early, items go fast. Minimal seating is available.

Just ordered two birthday cakes; gluten free chocolate with vanilla frosting and a carrot cake. Both were delicious. Love this little local bakery. read more

Very cute little bake shop. Best to take w you. Some seating outside. Very friendly & helpful staff. Beautiful display cases and cake pedestals, treats under glass. Every type of confection one dreams of: cookies, pie, cakes, muffins, cupcakes, woopie pies (it's a New England thing), scones, bars, etc. we tried the "devil dog", lemon bar, and a few types of cookies. Our favorite was the devil dog: rich creamy center in between moist ultra rich dark chocolate cake. So good! Solid variety of better teas & good coffee too. read more

That moment you post pics of your cinnamon roll from vacation and literally drool looking at it. That never happens. Tons of cinnamon goo and their bagel was good too. The day before we got a chocolate cupcake and it was a delicious, gooey mess. I appreciate that they keep almost everything covered so it doesn't get stale. Nice staff too. read more

If I could give negative stars I would. First, they don't deliver wedding cakes!?! Then don't make wedding cakes. That's the stupidest thing I've heard from a bakery. Second, this was a three tier cake. You literally can not see the differentiation between the base layer and the second tier. The rosettes were not uniform or cleanly arranged. This literally looks like a five year old piped frosting on this cake...it was terrible and they should be embarrassed this left their shop. Finally, the buttercream was not buttercream. It was crisco and confectioners sugar. It was terrible, as well as, you could taste and smell that this case was sitting in a cooler for some time. It had absorbed some flavors from whatever was in the cooler with it. I don't recommend this bakery....for any occasion!! Stay away!! read more
