Not only impeccably decorated but delicious. I unexpectedly gave some as gifts because they were SO impressive. At first I thought the price was a little high; but now I feel they are well worth it! I will be ordering them every Christmas from now on. I've been trying to find this quality of cookie at many twin city bakeries with no luck This is now my go to and new holiday must have!! JH

I have never ordered a customized cake before and Amelia made the process so easy. Not only was she so quick to respond to our request but she was also very respectful and professional.

I would definitely recommend her business and hope that she continues to gain happiness and success! We will defintely be using her service again.

We came across this cafe during MEA weekend - one of our kids was at a day camp nearby and we had…read morethe day off with our other kid. We weren't sure about what we would find since the menu is not on the cafe website and there were only a few Yelp reviews. WE ARE SO GLAD WE WENT! The cafe is pretty new (the bakery has been in the space awhile though), and I hope so many folks get to come here. It's a chill vibe and the people working there are very laid back but attentive to be sure you have what you need. I am American, but it looked to be a pretty authentic British cafe menu. I didn't get to grab a photo of the lunch and breakfast menu, but there are many options and also some veg options! We were there for breakfast and I had a Full English vegetarian breakfast and my spouse and child had really awesome breakfast butty sandwiches. We had been telling my kid about British scones versus American scones just the day before, so although we had plenty of food already we grabbed a couple of scones and cups of tea. The scones had very mild and nice raisins and came with jam and clotted cream. We loved it all and want to get back out this way soon for high tea or Sunday roast (for which I did get menu photos). Worth the drive from St. Paul! Thanks for a great morning.

I loved it and guests had many compliments. We also chose two random flavors that didn't really go together since they were our favorites-- carrot and red velvet. Leighana said it was no problem and guests loved the variety. Would definitely get a cake from this company again!

During the taste testing phase NB went above and beyond their competition. They used the freshest ingredients, had the best representation during our testing and their cheesecakes blew us (and other bakeries!) away! We immediately hired Katy and set our date with her. On our day, NB even exceeded our expectations. Not only were the cheesecakes themselves displayed beautifully, but Katy and Tom cut each cake and made sure each plate looked decadently drizzled as it left to be served. We had so many compliments from our guests in fact we're still hearing them weeks later! I would highly recommend Nokomis Bakeshop to anyone!

The cheesecake was a delicious combination of the butter cookie, with a nice butter cookie crust, a very good creamy, thick cheesecake with almost a bit of butter cookie and salted caramel, and then on top, a butter cookie. The perfect serving size for one and just very delectable! I have been wanting to try dubai chocolate for a long time now and oh my gosh... it was exactly what I imagine and then some! The chocolate itself was milky and silky and the inside was a light crunchy texture with some pistachio cream giving it an amazing consistency and juxtaposition of the soft, crunchy, savory, sweet... just all of the things. The dessert came fairly quickly, and the cheesecake was chilled to perfection. Have already shared this place with friends and when I need a sweet treat, this is where I will order from!
