This is our after Church brunch place to continue fellowship and meet friends and neighbors. Service is great. Like always we ask to be seated if possible with "Jules" who knows what we need and like. Food is fresh and arrives quick and hot to the table. Cakes and pastries are to die for ( in my case that is possible because of Diabetes). Prices are reasonable for a family and there is plenty of parking in the back and on the street. I would highly recommend the Bakery for breakfast or brunch. read more

Nice cafe to grab a cup of cappuccino or some baked goods. Large enough to also sit and do some work on your laptop. Never been rushed to leave. There is also a piano player often there throughout the day. This shop has a sweet staff who always makes me feel welcome. read more

Great service and delicious cinnamon rolls!! The ambience was quaint, clean, and busy,

O'Hara's Bakery Cafe gets a solid four stars and that's for a very good reason. It's not the best breakfast cuisine or coffee that I've had but it's a memorable breakfast/brunch experience nevertheless. The ambience is quite pleasant, high tin ceilings, reminiscent of the old drugstores of years gone by. The staff is very welcoming and pleasant. We both started out with cappuccinos. Even though the writeup on the cappuccinos boasted a couple of espresso shots, it still come throughout a bit on the weak side for me. I ordered a Belgian waffle with pecans and my wife ordered a breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel. The waffle was light and fluffy as expected with a good flavor, but but I guess I prefer a regular waffle with not as much air. The breakfast sandwich was tasty, but I opted for some hot sauce when I ate my half. In the past, we've had some of the baked goods here and they've been good. I think there's a lot of attention to detail by the owners, a commitment to good service and above average food at a fair price. We will be back. read more

A morning visit to O'Hara's Bakery Cafe turned into a simple breakfast with coffee and a few baked goods. The blueberry scone had a crumbly texture with a mild sweetness, while the ham and cheese croissant was flaky and filling. We also shared a cinnamon roll, which had plenty of cinnamon without being drowned in icing. The café had a comfortable, lived-in feel, and there were enough seating options to enjoy breakfast without feeling rushed. Everything tasted fresh and made for an easy start to the day. read more

PROS: - Usually breakfast options were available with a decent variety on the menu. CONS: - Overall taste was bland. - Bagels were dry. - Hot chocolate was primarily made of sugar rather than cocoa. - Service was slow and mildly attentive. FAVORITES: - None. TIPS: - Do not listen to the Google Reviews where it says the bagels are made-to-order. They are clearly pre-made in the case (see photo). OVERALL: - Just a bakery café with mid, unmemorable food. - Ambience was very boisterous, as there were many families with small children. read more

Delicious food and friendly service! Their french toast is very good, and the raspberry coffee cake they had when we went last was delicious. The inside is small but doesn't feel cramped even when it's packed. A really nice breakfast/brunch spot. read more

Excellent service received this late morning. My spouse ordered scrambled eggs with cheese and sausage. A vegetable biscuit was offered. (the sausage was a bit over cooked) I opted for the Cohala French Toast with raisins and fresh fruit cup. The coffee was a bit strong for my liking, but diluted with some half and half. Our waitresses were super attentive. Military Discount offered. One of our favorite places. Best time to visit is during the week; late morning. read more

The biscuits and gravy where great, my sister had the grits for the first time and she thought they were great! I had a bite, they were packed with flavor. We had a chocolate croissant which was good as well. This is definitely a solid breakfast spot. They have great coffee choices, and a menu that has plenty of choices without being overwhelming. Love the decor and the service was friendly. read more

First time going to O'haras and I won't be back. Got a peach scone and was okay also got an iced chai and ended up waiting 18 mins for the chai after asking where it was multiple times. It is watery and lacking in any sort of flavor not worth the trip and hectic atmosphere . read more

I love every dessert I have tried there and the atmosphere is very quaint. Service is amazing- the staff is so friendly!

Dessert is always good. Service was a little slow and wish the pie slices were bigger for the cost.

While they went through some growing pains initially, this has blossomed into my fave Lexington breakfast spot. Yes they have great specialty coffee drinks, but they also have a decent cup of drip coffee, something most breakfast places miss the mark on (blows my mind). The service is attentive and sweet. I always particularly enjoy chatting with Colby at the bar. My top fave foods here: -the cinnamon buns -yummy thick cut bacon -the corned beef hash is so filling and flavorful (I like mine with a runny egg on top) -the made from scratch bagels Also, if public restrooms stress you out, they have private, gender neutral bathrooms. Get a coffee to go and walk around the nearby shops or head out back to the beautifully renovated Virginia Hylton Park. Enjoy! read more

My husband and I decided to try this place for breakfast because everyone in town kept saying the bagels were really good. Apparently, the owner has figured out something with the water, and they taste like legit New York bagels. I got a jalapeño cheddar turkey bagel with egg, and he got a cheese bagel with bacon and egg; they were delicious. The only thing that was a little weird is that when I ordered chai tea with almond milk, they told me I would have to be refunded because the specialty drink person wouldn't arrive until one hour after opening time. I've never heard of this before, but if that's the rule, I was perfectly fine with it. It turned out that the person who makes the drinks arrived early and made my drink perfectly. My husband ordered a vanilla iced coffee that wasn't considered specialty, so it was made right away. Overall, we would definitely come back. read more

We had high expectations, we eat at the restaurant and have never been disappointed, by the food or service. Our daughter recommended the cafe for brunch, as our nephew was down for my husband's birthday. We got to the cafe at 10:45, the told us it would be a 45 min wait, we said no problem, she then told us they were closing early and kitchen would be closing at 12:30, again we said no problem and put our name down. I asked if the bar was first come first serve or also on the wait, she said it was first come first serve. Cool! About 10-15 minutes later 4 chairs opened up at the bar and we headed over, we were a party of 3. As we approached a man slid into a seat and as I was grabbing the back of the chair to sit he said it was for his friend, I said is your friend here? At first he said he was, then a minute later said he was in the parking lot, and then he said he was about 10 minutes out. I said I'm sorry but I was told these were FCFS, he said his friend was on the way, I tried to explain that I didn't think he could save a seat, as we were here and the seats were open, one little girl behind bar said he can just save it a few more minutes and another said no it's FCFS and he couldn't. After not wanting to sit next the clearly irritating man, we walked back up front. We were sat about 15 minutes later. Just after his friend showed up. I would say make sure your staff knows what ever rules or standards you are expecting as a restaurant so customers don't have to figure it out on their own. Once seated it's 11:45ish once we got our drinks, I had decided in the Monte Cristo then was told I could not have it due to it not being 12pm. They were out of gravy and a couple other items I can't remember, so we made secondary choices. My husband had the avocado toast and waffle, I had 2 eggs potatoes and sausage with a waffle ( my plate had clearly been sitting prior to coming out my eggs were cold and had already gotten a skin over yolk) and my nephew had the wicked. I wasn't disappointed but I wasn't impressed, the best thing was the waffle. Coffee was our beverages and we kept having to ask for sugar and creamer, as she would only bring 4 packs at a time for 3ppl. Also the hostess seemed irritated the entire time after she would tell people the wait time and that they were closing early, and people still wanted to stay, I would say work on her face showing her emotions, and a few servers were mouthing foul words as they would told that the restaurant was out of this or that. They were clearly not a happy bunch Sunday morning. Menu selection is nice, coffee was hot, service was lacking but we some other tables with very good servers taking care of them. I would say we would give it another try but not anything soon. read more

We actually found this place by accident while looking for another restaurant, but anyplace with baked goods can't be too bad. We went during lunch, so it wasn't really crowded or loud. The selection of pastries was nice and the staff was very helpful in helping us find where we were going. We bought a cinnamon roll, which seemed a little pricey, but it was big enough to satisfy my daughters and I. There's also a main restaurant a couple doors down. I'll make a note to go there sometime. read more

I've been to the Bakery cafe many times and have found it to be hit or miss from both a service and food quality standpoint. They often run out of bagels and portions are inconsistent. They appear at times to be unorganized, lacking leadership and could focus more on consistency, customer service and less on employee chatter. OThat said, it's not worth ruling out yet. read more

Well it takes a lot for me to give five stars but this place was outstanding! We have wanted to come here for a while but by the time we remembered, they were closed for the day. We ordered avocado toast with2 over easy eggs, grits, roasted potatoes and a cheddar biscuit. They were very generous with the avocado spread and it was packed with flavor. The potatoes were perfect and had the right touch of rosemary. Grits we great and the eggs needed no seasoning. We got Challah bread to go and we are looking forward to making French toast. Definitely a must to experience. They have a bakery on site and the delectables they have available will make anyone's mouth water. Fantastic staff, great atmosphere and tasty food made well. Kudos!! read more

I enjoyed the avocado toast. The coffee cake was also good. The service was excellent but everything took a long time. I ordered a side of bacon making sure to specify crispy. It was limp. I got a piece of celebration cake to take home and it was way overbaked. Actually much more brown than in the picture. I also got a white chocolate-cranberry scone which was too dry. All in all, while the baked goods look tempting they leave a lot to be desired. I'll stick to their savory dishes IF I go back. I really wanted to like the place but based on my experience I can't recommend it. read more
