Oliver's Bakery is a locally owned business that has served Kenosha for over 70 years! Known for their delectable and visually-appealing donuts, cakes, and Friday fish fry. A fan favorite in Kenosha is the Cyclops Donut, so make sure to try one when you're there!

While visiting my in-laws with my husband, I checked out the Kringles here. For my fellow east Coasters, Kringles are a Danish pastry that became the official pastry of Wisconsin. It has layers of buttery, flaky pastry filled with fruit or a variety of other fillings and is in a huge oval ring shape topped with icing. Their bakery had some pretty thick & huge round cakes in the fridge that looked really yummy. However, I didn't purchase one since my husband and I were flying back home the next day. But the cake prices were very inviting. My husband and I were immediately greeted, however I was in awe of the large selection of cookies on display & inadvertently did not respond. They also sell large muffins. They had around four variety of Kringles, we purchased two, one blueberry & one almond one. I'm not sure what I was thinking traveling home on a plane with these things. They were enormous & surprisingly heavy due to the filling. I honestly didn't expect them to weigh a lot. The friendly lady that greeted us was extremely helpful in packaging the Kringles in a pastry bag stapled shut (to prevent it from falling out) & then in a box to protect the Kringles from being smashed as an added protection in case I didn't have a large bag to carry them in. IF you decide to travel with Kringles (plural) on the plane, I suggest packing with you a large horizontal bag such as the reusable IKEA, Lidl or Aldi bags. The Kringles box SHOULD fit in those bags ( something with large girth). I didn't have any with me, so I went to a DQ & asked for a plastic bag they put their ice cream cakes in. The two Kringles fit with just the pastry bags WITHOUT the box. My father in law had some bubble wrap lying around so he bubbled wrapped each Kringle & they made it home safely under the airplane seat. The almond Kringle held up well, the blueberry one had some of its icing stuck to the pastry bag after traveling. Both were tasty! But I liked the blueberry one a lot more. The almond one was filled with almond paste/marzipan which was a bit much for me. I feel the fruit filled ones are more my speed and delicious! You can freeze the Kringles if you don't plan to eat it right away, but definitely refrigerate it at the least. One Kringle can easily feed 5 people with multiple servings or 10 people. There was another bakery we stopped by after that had Kringles for a significantly lower price, however whether the quality & taste is the same I can't say. The Kringles at this bakery run for $15 a Kringle. Make sure to check their hours as they close fairly early during the week either at 2 or 3pm.

I ordered cupcakes through their website and even sent a picture of cupcakes they did for a religious event that they posted on their Instagram (see image below) as inspiration. All they had to do was follow the picture and change up some colors. I went in today to pick up the order and all they showed me were cupcakes with white frosting and a blue cross on it that looked like no effort was given. Then the worker proceeded to tell me that I should have called. I ordered on the website and they called me a few weeks later. So yes, I did talk to someone and explained what I wanted. They verified, and I assumed that is what I was getting. The worker then told me that the pictures on the website don't upload well or some sort of excuse along those lines. If your website is crappy and you can't make out the picture then they should have told me this or found another way to tell me to show them a picture of my inspiration. Overall, I left empty handed and refused to pay $60+ for 30+ cupcakes when I can just get that cheaper at Sam's club. It was like they put no effort into the design. Very disappointed as they recently did a great cake for my sister in law. We do not live here and are from out of town so this was a bad first experience for us. Recommendations: update your website so it is more main streamed please.

Got a sweet tooth look no further.

If you are looking for a neighborhood Bakery look no further than Oliver's Bakery. My wife and I often lament that our home area does not have any old fashion Bakeries so when were visiting Kenosha and drove past Oliver's we had to stop and see what they had to offer. The space is small but the smells were big and so comforting we made an unneeded purchase of a Apple Fritter loaf and Mississippi Mud brownie. I can tell you they were both delicious. They also had a good selection of other yummy baked goods made on site. The only negative is we live 45 miles away so we will not be visiting as often as I would like.

I love Oliver's bakery for many reasons. Number one, it's named after the love of my life, Oliver Francis latimer. Number two, I love the donuts and that jelly oozes out like when Trisha paytas stuck Twinkie's up her bussy. Not sure if that happened but I know it has... Anyways 5/5 star food 10/10 recommended. Although the workers remind me of a bunch of hill Billy's I'll still give this establishment 5 whole stars.

Love the original vintage sign!

Kringles, good stuff if you get it from O & H. I've had kringles from another local bakery in…read moreWisconsin last time I visited. The one from its competitor wasn't anywhere as good as O & H. I've had O & H's almond kringle that they source out to Trader Joe's in VA. Staff were friendly and helpful! I informed them I'm not from here locally (just visiting my in- laws). The lady was helpful and explained their available products. I was so excited to try out their other kringle flavors. I opted for the key lime pie and the pina colada one. We tore into the key lime pie one and it tastes just like one, with the filling! Sooo good!! They run about $15-$16 for the flavored ones. The pina colada one I will have to update my review for, as it's currently in my in-laws' freezer and will hopefully survive the 14 hour drive home. No military discounts. Update: that pina colada kringle is KING!! O&H please source out these ones to Trader Joe's also!!

Nice place, good food, very clean and friendly. Staff at the register is sweet but absolutely…read moreclueless, we asked questions about some items and were told she really has no idea what the items on the counter were for, didn't know if they're candy or gum or good or bad. Hmmmm. Same staff brought out our sandwiches, one at a time, and pointed out she didn't know what she was bringing out or whose it was. Okay. I guess she could've not pointed that out, just made her appear ignorant and us feel like we were interrupting her day. Oh well. The Kringles are good, definitely get the original with cherries, cranberries and cheese, the sandwiches are very small, hardly any meat but tasty. Many items are frozen for take home. Was a nice place to visit, but we probably won't be back unless we feel like the original Kringle. We bought an assortment of pastries and decided it's not for us. Most are overwhelming sweet, and just okay. The petit fours are just cut up glazed cake, the cake inside is tasty almond flavored but the glaze kills it, too sweet. Lots of cute souvenirs but very pricey. Good to visit once. We came, we saw, we left.
