There are some beautiful choices here!! Look at the flakey insides of the fruit filled croissant/horn and the blueberry pop-tart! There were only two pop-tarts left so I took that as a sign and I was right! There is also a selection of gluten free products near the register which made it a nice place for my mom as well- Took it all back to the hotel for sampling! read more

I'm writing this as I'm eating the chocolate/hazelnut croissant and caramel apple Kouign-Amann. I haven't had pastries like this since my trip to France. Oh my word-if you are near St Mary's campus-Mayo Clinic, go here now!!! If you aren't careful, you will miss this tiny shop. It's right by Salad Brothers. So, so amazing! My husband better hurry up and wake up or I'll be sampling his caramel roll! read more

Cute, very small bakery. Not many items available, but seems fresh. They have had sale items for goods that are second day, etc. I bought a couple of their mega cookies. Both were good. I preferred the s'more to chocolate chip. At $3 each, definitely reasonable for the size of cookie!! read more

Very conveniently located just across the street from St. Mary's hospital. Great selection of breakfast pastries, doughnuts and quiches. Friendly staff. read more

Macarons are bite sized, bright cookies made with meringue, sugar, and almond flour and have a slightly crunchy exterior with a soft filling, typically made of a ganache, buttercream, or jam. Not at this bakery. I've tried their version 3 different times and each time the cookie shatters at first bite and is hollow in the middle of each cookie layer. It's so disappointing especially at the price points. read more

This bakery is located right outside the Mayo clinic. It should be noted that it is closed on Sundays and Mondays. I have been to this bakery three times in the last two weeks and overall I was impressed. They have breakfast sandwiches and quiche is available in the morning, however; they do not have have vegetarian options. During my last visit I did ask about a meat free option and they were able to make one and set it aside for me for the next day. They get a star for that alone. In fact, their customer service has been pretty spot on each visit. Throughout the week they had different customized sugar cookies that were decorated in various designs. I was able to grab cookies on almost every occasion and drop them off at the hospital for the nurses. This is a pretty great location and I wouldn't think twice about returning during my next visit. read more

Ok so going to be honest...the hours arent my favorite but because i got up early all the pastries were fresh and warm and yummy. First of all the people are super friendly.. the shop is cute and clean. No cupcakes but after dazzled by sugary yummy i forgot to ask. The croissants are buttery and flakey.. donuts are amazing. But my favorite are these filled pastries [cant remember the name].. they are filled with Nutella or other stuff. Flaky, sweet and oh so good!!! Worth getting up early.. and they have coffee read more

I've ordered a couple cakes a year from Sweet House. Very reasonably prices. I always love how they look, but I've never been in love with how they taste. This last one was the last straw. It tasted kinda raw. Again, beautiful, but not delicious. I'll be going somewhere else from now on. read more

I had the kouign amman but I found it dry and lackluster. We also tried the chocolate chip cookie which was huge and we're not impressed. I would have rated them a three based on those two items, but my boyfriend ordered the biscuits and gravy for breakfast and that was actually really good. I was not confident in the biscuit as I watched our server cut it in half - it just didn't look very tender or flaky. However it was quite delicious with the sausage gravy and made a very hearty breakfast. read more

Okay, I love local bakeries. Hard work and honest results always makes the scone, donut, cookie, turnover, danish, and other items that much better. In this case, you can taste the handmade dough and toppings which results in a great tasting treat. There is not a huge selection, but what they do have is all good. The space is small and only one table, with no wifi, and no plug ins for tech gear, which is disappointing and why I gave it four stars. I would have also like to see more traditional varieties of donuts available (sourdough old fashioned). The arrive is friendly and proud of their work, which they should be. Know the daily specials like a local as there are some sweet deals on some sweet eats. read more

We were so excited to try this bakery, since we were staying at the Aspen Suites. My cinnamon roll was right out of the fridge with congealed frosting. I would think coming in on a cold Minnesota morning it would have been warm and inviting. The customer service was a bit on the cold side as well. Totally missed the mark. read more

The cinnamon rolls are AMAZING! Maybe the best I have ever had, the ratio of cinnamon sugar to bread is perfect. We have purchased quite, pastries, and cookies from here and they were all delicious. read more

Their GF scones are amazing ! Not a lot of GF options - but these are wonderful! I would definitely give these a try !

First time stopping in. Bought 4 lemon cupcakes from the case for my husbands birthday. They were horrible. Dry, over cooked and probably old. Icing tasted old too. We won't be back. read more

Such a cute spot for delicious baked goods. I ordered a cinnamon roll, it was very flavorful. Previously have tried their donut which I find to be delicious as well. I also ordered a chocolate cake with raspberry filling and this was decent, a little thick on the frosting, but I've never been huge on the frosting portions. Also the chocolate cake was slightly dry, but the raspberry filling was quite yummy. read more

The most amazing cakes, cookies, macaroons, and cake pops in Rochester! Sweet House Bakery did the desserts for our wedding and it was the most beautiful dessert bar I've ever seen! Everything tasted incredible! Hands down the best bakery in Rochester! Jeynce and Tierynee were amazing to work with from start to finish - we would highly recommend SH Bakery!!! read more

Excellent huge cookies. We had double chocolate, milk chocolate chip and pumpkin!! All tasty. They were delivered to us and whole process was seamless. For the size it's worth the price. read more

My motivation for getting to work early is so that I can buy a cinnamon roll and eat it while I look up my patients for the day. These cinnamon rolls are always freshly baked, perfectly sweet, and buttery. I hope this bakery stays open forever. read more

Tasty baked treats! I'm sad i discovered them so close to moving out of Rochester. Everything we have tried has been absolutely delicious! Highly recommend any of their donuts! read more

I wish I could attach a smell this review, because if I could... it'd smell like heaven - surrounded by sweet sweet goodies. They also have gluten free options! Excellent for my family. The staff are super friendly as well. read more

Baked goods are a little stale by the end of the day, but still super delicious. Amazing if you get there early enough for something fresh. Very friendly, and they have a rewards punch card. read more

I am not quite sure how to rate this business. Food: We tried their sticky bun and cinnamon roll. Both were delicious and would have been better warm but we did not have a microwave available. Service: My husband went to Sweet House Bakery yesterday afternoon and they were sold-out. Understandable, as it was afternoon. The person working told him to come before 9am to be able to buy donuts. Today my husband braved our cold, snowy Minnesota winter at 6:45am for donuts and pastries. There was not a donut/pastry to be found. He was told someone had been in earlier and wiped them out. Ummmm, we understand not wanting left over product at the end of the day but wiped out by one customer??? My husband said no matter how good the cinnamon roll and sticky bun were (at $5+/each) and how friendly the sales person was he will never bother to go there again. I am sure he is not the only one who has been put-off by the lack of "inventory". read more

Ordered the hummingbird cake and was very disappointed. It was extremely dry and tasted like week old banana bread with chunks of pineapple. I've had hummingbird cake before, and it was wonderful. But this, sadly, was not. The only reason I'm giving it two stars is because the staff was friendly. The whole cake is going into the garbage. Not worth the calories. read more

Well talk about customer service! I occasionally order the Friday donut special to be delivered to my grandchildren. It is a way to stay connected. I live in Florida and use to bring donuts by as a treat when they lived near me. When they moved to Minnesota, I was trying to find a way to keep this tradition going. I found Sweet House Bakery online in Rochester and started to take advantage of their Friday special. The kids are so excited when they are delivered and never know when I will surprise them. The staff accidentally missed my order this week, however my daughter-in-law just text me to say the manager realized the error and personally delivered the order herself this morning. I am speechless. This kind of customer service was common practice in days gone by and I was truly moved to see that it still exists out there. Thank you Sweet House Bakery! If I could give you 10 stars I would. read more

The wedding cake Sweet House Bakery designed for our daughter's wedding was the amazing centerpiece it was planned to be. They not only mastered the almond taste and texture of the cake, they had the appearance down to every small detail that included the shimmer of the frosting. Jenyce and Tierynee's excitement for the event and their commitment to the successful outcome was reassuring. They took from conversations what the venue and traditional classic style of the wedding would be, as well as how the attire of the bride and groom would complement the overall design of the cake. The other detail was the temperature of the day which was very hot. They carefully planned to have the cake to the venue a day prior so that that it remained refrigerated without being transported in the heat on wedding day. Each cake tier contained three layers in the cake rounds. Upon cutting the cake for serving, it held together retaining its shape and not falling apart. The texture and taste was amazing with just a hint of almond and the right sweetness in the frosting. Thank you to Sweet House for a spectacularly classic wedding cake.

Beautiful birthday cake and so delicious! The recipient loved it. Thank you for doing this cake in a pinch.

Such a great addition to the neighborhood! The pastries are incredible as are the cookies and the breakfast offerings. My daughter spends a lot of time at St. Mary's and even when she won't eat anything else she will have a bite of their cookies. The owner and employees are all super nice and helpful. read more
