Stopped in for the first time ever, and it exceeded my expectations! The chicken salad on the croissant was outstanding, the best I've ever had! Then I tried the chocolate peanut butter frosting cake, it was so moist and the frosting wasn't overly sweet, absolutely amazing! Definitely will be going back soon! read more

Love their box lunch! Entire meal and you get to go pick out a dessert. I love the chicken salad croissant but I have liked everything I have ordered. The soups are fantastic too. read more

I originally called the St. John location but picked up from the Hobart location for my son's smash cake which was $11 and perfect with only 24 hours notice. While at the website I noticed they serve food as well. Yesterday, I ordered the chicken sandwich croissant and it was fantastic. I'm back today and ordering the BLT lunchbox that comes with salad and pie. While in line I decided to pick up a veggie quiche to go. I'm so excited to see a local business offering quick lunch options! read more

Purchased a cake and ask them to write HB and add a name,gave them the spelling and they still misspelled the name. So disappointing.

I love this little local bakery. Their baked goods are excellent, fresh and reasonably priced. I've had their cinnamon rolls and they're delicious. The service there has always been great as well. They have a small lunch menu as well, and I'd highly recommend them for lunch as well. We shop there often and will continue to do so! read more

Ordered a small coffee and asked for splash of milk. Then charged me for extra dollar. The cashier didn't even tell that's an extra charge. Will never come back- coffee tasted nasty anyway. read more

Make up your minds, are you running a disco or a bakery? On any given day the garbage is blasting on average 10 decibels below the audible threshold of pain where the eardrums burst and the inner ear bleeds out. It is clear my business is no longer desired. That's fine, it's not my monthly bottom line that will be on average $150.00 less- it's yours! If anyone wants a lesson on how NOT to run a bakery this is the business model to follow... read more

Stopped in to grab some lunch to take home. The gentleman who helped me was very friendly. I ordered a turkey sandwich on pretzel roll and roast beef panini. The box lunches are great value (IMHO). $15 for sandwich/side/dessert/basic beverage. I chose to upgrade to the beef vegetable soup and was glad I did. I ordered extra pastries as well. My granddaughter smashed the shortbread cookies. We loved the baked goods and will definitely be back for more. The downside - I was hoping to have the chicken salad croissant but they had a problem with croissants that day and only had premade chicken salad croissant sandwiches. I chose to skip that option. So I ordered the roast beef panini. When I arrived home we discovered that both sandwiches were made with roast beef (not the turkey pretzel sandwich that I ordered). The other head scratcher was that the picture on Yelp looks very country kitsch and inviting. The St John location ambience could be summed up as very sparsely decorated and had no customers dining at 12:30. If we had actually dined in it would have been a bit awkward. We will plan on giving them another try but our first experience was a bit lukewarm. read more

Wanted to update this review because the wife wanted to place an order online but the site was not working for days. She finally went into the actual bakery only to be told they were no longer taking orders. Another stunning disappointment. You guys need to do better or you won't be around long. read more

Amazing baked goods. The lemon squares are heavenly! The brownies are chocolatey, ooey, gooey, delicious treasures! read more

Really nice space and excellent paçzki. I interviewed a lady eating lunch and she said it was the second time she's been back in a week. I'm told the chicken salad is AWESOME and the "lunch box" is the way to go. You get some soup, salad, or sandwich with a drink or dessert. I only got the paçzki but I took a couple blueberry pie samples while I was waiting for the girl to box them. OMG it was so good, and I'm usually not a blueberry fan. read more

We live in California and were planning the celebration of life for my mother in law in the Crown Point area. She loved her yard and all of the many types of animals that frequently appeared beyond her two cats. Other bakeries we tried were not eager to take on an interpretation of creating her beloved backyard and menagerie. I looked on yelp and learned of Marilyn's Bakery and saw the reviews. When I called they were so eager and willing to make a cake for 50 people that would creatively tackle the theme, play up her favorite colors and flavors. We told them we trusted them and there was no wrong solution. When we arrived in town and picked up the cake (and a dozen gluten free cupcakes), it was a magical and whimsical interpretation and it was perfect -- visually. Then at the celebration we were served the cake and wow! So delicious and moist and the frosting was epic. Not a single slice was left. Thanks for the amazing job. We were so touched and people texted us asking where we got the cake. If you open a location in California I'll be lining up. read more

Yummy and delicious, one of the best dirty chai lattes I've ever had. The quiches are so good, the atmosphere is friendly and a great place to go to and get some work done. read more

After our family came to visit this summer, they wanted to take back pies, corn, and other foods from Indiana. We googled Marilyn's Bakery and it did not disappoint! We bought enough pies to have after dinner, and we also bought enough pies for them to take back to Texas with them. Thank you, Marilyn's Bakery, for the delicious souvenir! read more

Great pies Very organized at thanksgiving Love them They also sell toffee which is good read more

First visit....it was amazing service was friendly and very efficient. Food was out standing. I'm a healthier eater so ingredients matter. I was impressed. Even the coffee was great. Took home a berry pie best ever besides my sisters! Definitely worth a try!! read more

Bought a large blueberry pie at the Frankfort Farmers market yesterday and it's fantastic! Plump, large blueberries burst with sweetness and flavor in your mouth. Crump topping has nice crunch to go with the filling. Glad the small blueberry were gone. read more

So disappointed in this bakery. I can't say how the lunches are because I've been there twice and walked out without one. Both times they were all out of box lunch items and the last time it was only noon. The baked goods do look scrumptious though. read more

I enjoyed an excellent lunch from Marilyn's. The food is super fresh and made to order. The portions are incredibly generous. I look forward to going back and trying more of their offerings! read more

It's newer here and easy to miss in the strip mall, but it's so good! Everything is fresh and seems to be small batch, so it's definitely not a place that churns out and let's product sit. I loved their kolachkeys. Flaky and good! read more

This place is so good! I've driven by a bunch of times without really noticing it, until my mom told me her coworker drives all the way from Naperville to get their pies. Stopped in the other day and everyone was so nice . They had a good variety of fresh baked pies .i chose the cherry crumb top and it was amazing! Still warm out of the oven. We will be back! read more
