    This bakery is fantastic! My sister asked for a Bearded Baker cheesecake for her birthday. I didn't realize they have a 6-7 day turnaround and only have a Sunday pickup...but thankfully they have a shop you can go get slices and mini cakes 6-days a week. I decided to go to the store front instead since I needed them by Satruday. This ended up being even better because then I could get several different flavors for my sister and I to try. I wanted to try every single one of them but stopped at 5 flavors and a slice. I sampled the blueberry lemon and red velvet mini. Both are delicious but the blueberry lemon was mind blowing with a perfect sweet to tart ratio of flavors. I also got to try their sweet potato cheesecake by the slice. This also had fantastic flavor. I wasn't a fan of how thick the crust was on the slice but am still a fan! They also offer cookies, brownies, a daily soup flavor, and some sourdough bread loaves. This is going to be one of my new favorite spots!

    The round ones are Oreo and one of the slices was a white chocolate

    See all

    We got here on a Saturday morning just after they opened so we thought. They had actually opened 30…read moreminutes earlier than we expected. When you walk in you pull a number and wait for it to be called. Almost felt like I had walked into the DMV. lol We peeked at the display counters while we waited and tried to have our orders ready when it was our turn to expedite the wait for those after us. There were a few shelves that displayed various cookies, breads and things you could grab and go. The place was clean and the process was orderly. They seemed to keep things in the front stocked. We probably waited about 15 minutes. I pulled number 90 and the were calling the last of the 60's. We ordered several items to try including the packzis with three different fillings since we went at the right time of year for these. We grabbed a cheese, strawberry and lemon. We also chose a cheese danish, maple cream stick, apple fritter, cherry turnover and a donut stick. Once we told them what we wanted the girl helping us went to the back and started filling our box. A few moments later she returned, we paid and headed out the door with our sweets. My husband didn't want to wait so we opened up the box once we got to the car and each took one bite from each of our selections. We didn't find anything wrong with our choices. The one thing I was thrown off by is how they make their apple fritters. I almost missed ordering one bc they look nothing like the apple fritters I'm used to eating. It was just ok in my book. Not something I would get again. The donut stick on the other hand is something I wouldn't miss next time. In fact I'd be getting more than one. It was probably my favorite item of all we selected. The cream stick dough was soft. The cream wasn't too sweet. The only thing I would have changed was to have the maple icing be a bit more maple flavored. The turnover was nice and crispy flakey but the filling was just ok. Maybe a different flavor next time if I would get one. How can you go wrong with a cheese danish? Warm this slightly and you're hitting a home run. This was a nice stop and we learned the difference between what we liked and loved. We know just what to get next time. I will say they have a great social media presence and do a phenomenal job interacting with their customers and community.

    It was a pleasure to see Resch's Bakery open in Gahanna. As a family new to Ohio in 2013, we heard…read moregood things about Resch's and we have long been supporters in past communities of family owned bakeries. We enjoy their products and welcome Resch's to Gahanna. We are highly confident Resch's would be even more successful if they took two actions: 1. Open for business at least by 7:00 a.m. 2. Offer the option of traditional no-filling Chocolate and Vanilla frosted Long John donuts. -- market data supports this and shows .... Based on: * Sampling of 100+ independent bakery hours across U.S. cities * Regional bakery association listings * Yelp/Google Business hour patterns * Known bakery business models A realistic, data‑grounded estimate is: Only about 10-15% of neighborhood bakeries open at 8:00 a.m. or later. Further market data shows... Bakeries that offer only filled Long Johns are extremely uncommon. Why unfilled Long Johns almost always remain on the menu * They serve the "less sweet" customer segment. * They pair well with coffee (important for morning sales). * They are cheaper to produce and have fewer failure points. * They are the "default bar donut" in many regions. Even bakeries that push filled varieties keep unfilled bars because they sell steadily and require no additional labor. --- Bottom-line conclusion Bakeries that offer only filled Long Johns are very rare -- probably under 5% of all bakeries. The overwhelming majority offer both, with filled varieties outnumbering unfilled but not replacing them.

    Been meaning to come here, and to the reincarnated Planter's shop next-door. And I had some free…read moretime, so I combined them. Definitely both local businesses worth supporting. Parking is easiest in the statehouse garage. This is a nice little shop, doing carryout and dine in. 10 or so little tables. Lots of delectable looking pastries, and a couple of sandwiches, and a decent drink menu. I got one of the specials, the Japanese breakfast: miso, maple, milk, espresso. Very, very good warmer-upper on a very cold day. I also got a couple of those little cookies, an ubi and an anise, because they looked so good. I'll try them later. Service was excellent. The atmosphere of the place is nice and welcoming and relaxing. I will definitely be back.

    Good, but I was hoping for great…read more No doubt their bomboloni is worth top billing (at least if their merch is any indication of top billing). It was perfectly filled and dusted without be overwhelming from a flavor or density standpoint. The Kouign-Amann was good and also touted. We got a slice of cake that was satisfying. The two savory items were the slightly disappointing dishes. Not that they were bad, but they looked so good and sounded so interesting that the taste just didn't live up to the anticipation. I can't remember the name, but one had a hot dog wrapped inside of croissant dough. The other was a French Onion Dip and Ruffle Croissant which had potato chips on top of it. Both just kind of fell apart leading to eating the components separately. Personally, I will stick to the sweets if I make it back there.

    Service: staff is friendly and work quickly…read more Ambiance/Atmosphere: inside is very well decorated with a modern look. The pastries and cakes are displayed beautiful front and center. Food: Almond croissant is delicious. Crispy, flaky, soft interiors with a beautiful almond filling. This is the best almond pastry I've had in Columbus. I'd highly recommend. Maple pecan twist is delicious. Soft with a sweet maple glaze and crunchy pecans to top. This was beautiful down and tasted fantastic. If you're a pecan lover this is for you. I'd highly recommend. Pumpkin morning bun was phenomenal. This is one of the best pumpkin pastries I've ever had. A true pumpkin flavor with a soft buttery pastry. I'd insist on this item. Crème Brûlée Eclair was good. Butter pastry with a crunchy caramel topping and a sweet very well made cream filling. This was my first eclair and I'm not disappointed. I'd recommend. Plum cranberry Almond Tart was delicious. The plums and cranberries were fresh and added a nice freshness to the almond base tart. I'd highly recommend. Chocolate bombe was great. Cold ganache filling with dark chocolate chunks and a beautiful ganache and cocoa powder over the top. I'd recommend for chocolate lovers. Chocolate Caramel Pecan Feuilletine was great. It genuinely tasted like an upscale turtle. If turtles are something you'd enjoy. I'd highly recommend.

    Overpriced and overhyped! Visited with a few friends when it was still chilly out and waited in…read moreline to order a mocha, a ham and cheese croissant and a chocolate macaron. I think the issue is with the chocolate they use for the mocha but it had such an odd flavor that I couldn't bring myself to finish it. The croissant was fine and not memorable and I won't say too much on the macaron because I think I just realized I'm not really a macaron person so I can't fairly judge them there. The cafe is itty bitty and there is absolutely no seating inside so it's more of a grab and go situation. There are a few seats outside so hopefully you can snag a seat when the weather is nicer. Overall, I think there are a lot of other good coffee shops in Columbus that I don't see myself going out of my way to come back.
