This business just keeps growing! It's an impressive bakery discovered by all the tourists out of the area that come to Shipshewana to have a taste of what we who live in the area call the "Amish crack " donut! They are like angels on your tongue- very fine cinnamon and powdered sugar on a raised donut. The kind of baked good you dream about and will rise and get rolling to have for breakfast- get there early- they sell out fast! read more

The doughnuts are awesome!!! We found the counter ladies to be unfriendly and not patient at all with someone who has never been there. Aside from that, the baked goods are amazing! read more

Yum! The toasted coconut covered doughnuts even had filling! First time to have their doughnuts. Very good

The best doughnut I ever had! The biscuits and gravy were OK. There were a bunch of people buying tons of doughnuts so we figured we were in the right place. They have lunches and lots of baked goods and jams to go with. read more

Since failing to secure whoopie pies at Rise N Roll (Middlebury) in March 2010, I did finally get some at both of their Chicago locations later that spring. Sadly, both locations have since closed, cutting me off from the only source of authentic whoopie pies west of central Pennsylania. Therefore, if I was to fulfill my heart's desire--to serve whoopie pies at my wedding reception--I would have to get them from the Rise N Roll in Middlebury. Which is exactly what I did. I was willing to wake up early the day before the wedding and drive the 5-hour round trip to fetch them, but happily my family offered to pick them up on their way from PA to Chicago. Thanks gang! I dealt with Chrissy on three separate phone calls to set everything up, and it was the most painless bulk-bakery order I can imagine. (I actually could have done it with one call, but I had two additional requests which occurred to me later.) Six dozen whoopie pies didn't even make them blink. Chrissy took no information besides my name and phone number. When my parents arrived to pick up the goods, no one in the shop knew whether I had paid, and they were willing to take my parents' word for it if they said that I had. Wow, talk about old-fashioned trust and good will. Plus, they gave me a deal and charged only a dollar apiece. You don't get customer service like this anymore. Delicious as always, the whoopie pies were a hit at the reception despite a 142-mile road trip and 48 hours in cold storage. Thank you, Rise N Roll, for taking such good care of my pet obsession to have a little touch of hometown Amish goodness at my fancy big-city wedding! read more

Why, oh why, did I only get one of the cinnamon caramel doughnuts and one cinnamon roll? I am back home now and have tried a bit of each one and they are absolutely incredible! I'm generally not a doughnut kind of person, but I tried a sample of what they had out and liked it, so I thought I'd indulge. Unfortunately, I did not indulge enough. Even a day later and after being in the refrigerator, this doughnut is nothing short of amazing. The cinnamon roll (good ones are my downfall) is pretty good, too, with a nice amount of cinnamon and none of that pre-fabricated taste that cinnamon rolls so often have. And the cream cheese frosting is like a taste of Heaven. The cream cheese flavor comes through loud and clear and puts all other cream cheese frostings to shame. At the end of my transaction, I was offered a free cup of coffee, which was also very good -- much better than the swill I got from the hotel. Perhaps it's a good thing I live too far away to go back; I would be in some serious trouble if Rise 'N' Roll were close to me! read more

The coffee is free and there exists no thing on Earth that equals the taste of their original cinnamon caramel donuts, so go forth and eat here. Any distance traveled or any hardship encountered will be instantly forgotten upon ingestion of their donuts, pastries and coffee. They have a full menu so you can eat any kind of breakfast you want (they are as well known for their sandwiches, breads and pies as their donuts and pastries). A little out of the way but worth it! read more

The GREATEST bakery on planet earth. Nuff said. BEST cinnamon donuts you will EVER eat, best ice cream yes ICE CREAM DONUT you will ever eat, best cinnamon roll you will ever eat. Just best ever. If you're from Chicago you may be under the impression you've had great desserts. You simply HAVEN'T until you've been here, and ALL the donut stores from Drop Donuts, Stan's Donuts, Firecake Donuts, Donut Vault, Chicago Bakery, and every other donut place are NOTHING compared to this place. I feel sorry for your stomach and your life if you've never had real desserts like this. BUT look out for the benches in the eating area, they're kinda unsafe and act like a teeter totter! It's fun and memorable to have almost flipped a whole table over, but someone can get hurt!!! You HAVE NOT tried great, fresh donuts until you eat Amish desserts. Amazing people, BETTER in heart, body, spirit, and mind than the majority of ignorant modern day people. Want to know why your ignorant? Come here to slow down your pointless fast paced lifestyle (or no paced lifestyle for the lazy) sometime read more

Wow! A piece of heaven! Doughnuts are the best I've ever had anywhere. Blew me away how light, fluffy and delicious they were.

I don't understand why this place is so packed all the time. Perhaps it is because I do not have a sweet tooth and don't eat any of the items for sale? The husband does, however, and so every time we are in town, we head over for his fix. They need more space, because people act like choosing a donut is their largest life decision and block the area for everyone else. A woman buying 6 took 15 minutes to make these choices. And, the parking area has NO room, so people double park or have someone else wait in the car and make a mess out of the whole area. And seriously, people, they are NOT Amish anymore - it says it right on their website....."In early 2009, the young Amish couple decided to sell their business to a non-Amish family and moved it to a new facility. The original founders of the bakery are still employed by Rise'n Roll and are active in the day-to-day operations. In 2012 Rise'n Roll Bakery sold its first franchise, and a Nappanee location was opened. In 2013, the decision to continue with more franchises was made, and is currently being pursued by several possible candidates. " read more

The BEST donuts. Oh my! The staff is super friendly and helpful. The friendly chatter between employees make it seem they like to work there and to work with each other. Don't pass by the Rise'n Roll without stopping. read more

I've never had better donuts or pies. The ham salad is outstanding as is everything they make in house

If you like extremely rich, and sweet donuts this is the place to go. They also serve limited choices of breakfast and lunch items. You can also find a wide array of canned goodies such as relishes, salsas, Amish peanut butter, jams etc. If you decide to get something to eat while you visit, be sure to ask for your complementary cup of coffee. read more

A must stop. We will be back. Lots of samples to try before you buy. Nice bakery and lots of other items including gluten free. read more

The BEST donuts I have EVER eaten! What can I say about this place? One word: Delicious! The caramel donuts are one of the best (if not THE best donuts) I have ever eaten in my life. They were so soft, slightly gooey and covered in cinnamon & sugar. My cinnamon roll was so deliciously rich and big that I couldn't finish it all. Thankfully, my husband helped me polish it off. This place gets really crowded. You can also order a few sandwiches and breakfast items as well. When in the area again, I WILL return! read more

OMG, the peanut butter filled chocolate donut was so good! We also had a powdered sugar raspberry filled it was delicious as well. Had the opportunity to try these as 2 dozen were delivered to the Tru hotel for a staff meeting of 3 people, so they let us have one. We went the morning of the 5th to take a dozen home to OR, to our dismay they were sold out for national donut day! Maybe next time. read more

We came at prime time Saturday morning to grab some road snacks. It's very easy to stop at off SR20. There was a long line but it went quick as there were 3 registers. Pies, cookies, and donuts of all kinds are available. We got a package of 3 oatmeal raisin, a dozen peanut butter and a single Whoopie pie. We did get a couple donuts from the case and some homemade cheese ball. Everything is fresh. The staff is friendly and helpful. read more

The donuts are amazing! Very flavorful and not greasy. They are delicious and filling. We went to Shipshewana for the flea market, and that ended up being just a bunch of the same things in booth after booth. The real gem of this adorable little town is Rise and Roll. Worth the trip alone. read more

This is THE place to shop for local foods to take home... Especially good are the pies and cookies, and of course the donuts, known locally as "Amish crack" for good reason. Rise N Roll makes the best pecan pie I've ever had. Note - It's also an eat-in restaurant. Warning: On Saturday mornings the line is out the door. If you're a tourist, get there on Friday instead if you can! read more

WE LOVE THIS PLACE! Best caramel cinnamon donuts ever made, and other delicious baked goods, jams, jellies, and pies. We often eat lunch there. The turkey bacon wrap is delicious and they give you a coffee sample free. My husband had a BLT which was also good. You have to get there early as they are always busy and the lines are long, but move quickly and efficiently. We always stop there when traveling to Shipshewana. read more

Since Changing Hands a few years ago quality and taste have really suffered. I rarely go there anymore.

OK... I will admit that I love sweets but it is rare that they have a profound effect on not just me but those around me. The tasty goodness that is everything that they bring to my office building is simply beyond comprehension. Today I had the pumpkin whoopie pie; and it was so good I had to share it with my coworker just because I needed someone else to witness the amazing flavor. Their amazing pastries that are too good to be called just a 'doughnut' I watched a new member of our team taste one for the first time and I may have heard angels sing! read more

Cute shop out in the country which sells a variety of Amish baked goods. Samples of everything, including the fantastic caramel cinnamon doughnuts, are readily available. Besides the donuts they also sell fresh bread, cookies, candy, granola, and surprisingly a decent selection of gluten-free items, including their own scratch-made granola bars. The pecan crisp, which is kind of like peanut brittle, is fantastic. It's sweet and just a little salty so it really does a number on your tastebuds. Plan on buying some doughnuts-it's around $4.50 for a half-dozen, and they're just awesome. They're huge, fresh, and uber pillowy. The flavor Rise n Roll is known for is caramel cinnamon, which sounds a little odd but is mind blowing. The caramel-iced doughnut with sprinkles is right up there in my top 3 doughnuts of all time. If you are going to go here, and have some friends who like to eat, plan on bringing home a sausage roll. This is a rich two pound creation of bacon, cheese, egg, and of course sausage tucked inside of bread dough and baked. It's fantastic. I have a plan for one of these bad boys involving at least 4 friends and my birthday. Some of the other treats are soft granola bars, snickerdoodles, sugar cookies, ranger cookies, chocolate crinkle cookies, and whoopie pies (kinda like Moon Pies or a giant soft Oreo). On the savory side they sell relishes and a handful of farm-fresh items like eggs. Also, free coffee should you want to enjoy some of your fresh-made treats on the hand-crafted tables and chairs. Naturally, this bakery staff is made up entirely of young Amish girls. Fair warning: everything is made fresh daily, so if you show up late in the day they may be out of certain things. read more

27 reviews with a 5 star rating? How good could these donuts be?? Oh, they be gooood! Besides, I like to top off a gluttonous Thanksgiving weekend with- you guessed it, more gluttony! ;) Listen, I'm a Yelper through and through, so if I see a rating like that, I'm going to stop and try it out. Sure, I'll get a donut (even though it's not a cupcake, it happens). So we walked in and ordered the bavarian creme filled caramel cinnamon donut, that way I get to have a creme filled donut which is my preference, plus it would be like getting the 'regular' highly touted cinnamon caramel donut...without buying too many donuts or breaking the bank! I also wanted to try the chocolate coconut someone mentioned. So we decided on those two, then noticed the samples of the regular cinnamon caramel on the counter and tried it. "John! Get the cinnamon caramel, too." I said. Heavenly, light delicious! The sweet and funny clerk said, "Shall we just round it out to 12?" Haha, NO, but I like the way she thinks! So, 3 donuts for later, that's not terrible. And now we can check out the rest of this cute Amish shop of food (jarred condiments, snacks, meats, breads and cheeses, oh my). Oh, and with that donut purchase, they offered a free small coffee- nice touch! This was AFTER we found out they stop making sandwiches at 3, and it was about 3:30. Wah wah. Our intent had been to try "the best sandwich I've ever had", as written in one of the other reviews, and of course the donuts. So instead, we bought a loaf of the bacon cheese and onion bread the particular sandwich comes on. We are going to try and somewhat replicate it at home. :) Now, this is a decently sized store, very inviting with its beautifully carved (oak?) wood tables and a multitude of arranged jars of items like spicy mustards and sweet and hot habenero bread and butter pickles, and a bazillion flavors of jam and jellies, notably, a lot of seedless varieties and more unusual flavors like pineapple and so on. Even better, there are samples everywhere-- and that's how they get you! Every sample I tried was something above average, truly. I ended up buying those habanero pickles as a gift for a friend (wish I could've gotten my own), some Amish egg noodles (for us), that loaf of bread, 3 donuts, and a tiny jar of the seedless blackberry jam; my hubby likes jam but hates seeds like in strawberry, raspberry and blackberry. (He has texture issues. I also call him "no-nuts." I'll let you guess why. Haha) they offered a great little gift assortment set of 6 "pick your own" 1.5 ounce jellies for a very reasonable price which escapes me. There was also an amazing 2 POUND sausage smoked sausage and cheese roll loaf for $10. It sounds pricy, but was huge, heavy and OMG, tasted sooo good, smoky savory moist deliciousness! On another trip, we will definitely pick that up. Suffice it to say, there's so much to choose from here. It's a visually appealing store. The prices were low to average for undoubtedly a better product than comparable products, and the staff was friendly and efficient. It is officially a must-stop for us when traveling this route. I can't wait to try more in the deli and bakery, and snatch up more products as gifts and for just us. This establishment is conveniently close by my out-laws new home. Thank The Lord cuz otherwise the area is a Yelper's nightmare, a desolate wasteland with practically no place to check in other than the occasional gas station- the horror! I'll leave you with my non-Yelper friend's quote, as we halved 2 of the donuts with her. "Not greasy, light/fluffy, no huge gaps in the dough, and the cinnamon...perfect. There's your review ;) bwahahaha" read more

Rise'n Roll is a nice place to go for breakfast if you're just stopping in quick and leaving. I was here the day after thanksgiving for some biscuits and gravy. Also had to get a chocolate sprinkled doughnut and black coffee. Everything was very good and the employees were very nice. They also have a lot of products to purchase right of the shelves like a grocery store. So while you're food is being made you can stroll through the store looking for good eats. They also have a nice seating area. read more

Wow wow wow, so delicious I tried their pecan brittle and cashew brittle. So fresh and crunchy and delicious. What really surprised me is that the brittle did not have that hard to bite toffee like-taste but rather I could taste the generous cashews and pecans embedded in delicate and velvety chocolate. It is so good you just want to take the whole container and eat it all in a corner by yourself. read more

The best donuts! Just amazing! They also sell other food items that are quite yummy as well. We always stop here when we are in town.

Rise'n Roll - Best donut ever!! - Bakeries Near Me - Middlebury, Indiana

OMG!! We were told about this place in Shipshewana, IN. (Yes, that's the real name.) After leaving Auburn, IN. after attending the christening of the granddaughter of my wife's best friend from the Nazarene college, we were told that if we had the time we should definitely check out a little Amish community in this town and especially a doughnut shop called Rise and Roll. Well, doughnut shop is a misnomer to put it mildly. Yes, they had doughnuts, but so much more. One could sample nearly all of the hundreds of salsas, apple butter, and chips. A beautiful young Amish gal by the name of Sarah served us and told us that since we'd gotten over $50 worth of stuff (really easy to do), that we were entitled to a special tote for our things. She freely answered all my questions about the difference between Amish and Mennonite religions. It didn't really matter that the tote would only have cost three dollars to buy it outright because we got this one for FREE! LOL Of course they had an assortment of cheeses (except for my Limburger that I like). Don't curl your noses up! If you could get it past your nose, with a dill pickle, onion, mustard on rye bread, you'd like it too. I grew up on this stuff at home as a kid. Good stuff! LOL They had a wonderful complete deli with individual sandwiches or meals and SOUP. I was really hoping to have some old fashioned pork and bean soup, but they only make two soups a day and this was not the day for bean soup. The two choices were green pepper soup and a new one, creamy cheeseburger and potato soup. I chose the latter. When I took it and the rest of our goodies out to the car and went back in to use the restroom before continuing the rest of our four hour trip back to Columbus, I discovered that my wife, Marsha had gotten into my soup and wanted to go back in and get some for herself. The soup was creamy like potato soup, but had chunks of flavored ground beef or chuck with potatoes and onions throughout. We also picked up a brand new bag of veggie chips, but unlike the normal dry cardboard taste, these were seasoned and quite tasty. So, if you ever are going through Shipshewana, IN, stop at the Rise and Roll Bakery. read more

While staying on a mini vacation I knew we had to visit Rise and Roll since it was so close to where we were staying. It get so much hype and kuddos I was anticipating mouth watering pastries and great atmosphere. I am positive it was all the excitement lead to my extreme let down. It's a good size building with enough parking for everyone. Today it was pretty busy. Walking in I was a little confused. It's also a small canned food items like pickles etc. then there are dining room tables and then a cold case fridge that has cold items and then the small donut shelf and counter. I guess you come here to either have a meal or just order their all famous caramel cinnamon doughnuts. I've never tried one so when I saw they had samples I tasty a piece. I am not a doughnut fan but these were extremely soft, moist, huge? And the topping is pretty delish. But still not enough for us to order a dozen. The small donut display near the counter holds maybe 10 varieties of these circular morsels but nothing looked good to us. The line to get one is rather confusing because you place your food and doughnut or Oder in the same line. Here's the thing tho the menu is mainly salads soups and sandwiches. Two pages and that's all. It is more of a deli than anything. No one greets you to sit down so you just hope to find a good spot. Prepare to eat with strangers because these are benches there was a waitress but I believe she's just there to clean up. All in all it takes awhile to figure out the layout. It's a little on the crazy side and poor planning. There are too many people that are ordering that the other guests has to excuse themselves and chance people getting irritated. We didn't eat there because I have picky kids and we don't eat sandwiches. In my opinion I wouldn't go back but it does appeal to many midwestern folks. read more

The bakery goods at Rise n Roll are exactly what I think of when I think of Amish cooking. First off, fresh, fresh and fresh! And that is easy to understand as they likely sell out of most of their donuts, breads and the like daily. We had a couple of breakfast items, very limited menu, but everything was very tasty. Our Mennonite server gal was very smiley and pleasant to chat with. And her service was fast! Of course we left with some prepackaged boxes of the Cinnamon Caramel donuts to share with others back home. I must agree - their most popular donut is for real. It was GOOD!!! You won't be sorry for stopping by - unless you are on a diet! read more

I have found the best donuts in the world, and they are here at Rise' N Roll. Melt in your mouth, sweet sweet cinnamon caramel goodness. I drool at the thought of these and wish that I could get my relatives in the area to overnight me a batch. read more
