    Pecan caramel and plain crème cheese rolls.
    Katherine P.

    Saw the sign for The Roll one day driving down Race Street, and this morning decided to give it a try. WOW! Cute little bakery with a countertop offering the daily flavors - they had sugar glaze, plain crème cheese, blueberry lemon, pecan caramel and pistachio. They all looked amazing. I got the pecan caramel and the plain crème cheese. These did not disappoint - the flavors are exactly what you want from a good sweet roll. Will be back.

    Wow! So glad I grabbed some cinnamon rolls mid-week while I was in the area. The service was phenomenal - you can tell they are passionate about their business & excited to introduce people to their cinnamon rolls. I got the standard cinnamon roll, banana foster, and a blueberry lemon roll. They are so light & fluffy... and my favorite part is that they actually aren't overly sweet! It's the perfect balance of flavors that won't you leave you in a sugar high!

    Got a bananas foster which was absolutely delicious and a Belgian chocolate which was fine. I'm generally a lover of all things chocolate, but the chocolate pudding instead of cream cheese frosting on top just left me feeling like it was missing something. The cinnamon rolls are pretty dense and could benefit from being served warm. I will definitely come back and pop one in the microwave. I ordered ahead and pickup was super easy and service was great. The store smells delicious. Decent price for the size.

    This a place you grab and go, no places to sit down. It is small so no one wanted to stay in there anyways. Of course you have to pay to park near by. However, it is very simplistic menu, you can also get coffee there as well! The people there are very nice, and helpful! Ambiance was very minimalist, chill and just get the job done. The actual rolls are SOOO SOFT OMG DELICIOUS ENOUGH TO SPLIT OR JUST YOU

    We arrived around 11:00 am on a Friday morning. There was only one person in front of us in line, but in the time that we were there several more people joined the line. They had 4 different cinnamon rolls to choose from. I decided to try a classic roll with cream cheese icing. There is no seating available, so we walked to Washington Park to eat there. The people in front of us ordered the iced Spanish latte, and it looked delicious. The cinnamon roll was soft and gooey in the best way. The icing didn't have as much of a cream cheese flavor as I expected, but it was still tasty. I would like to return and try one of their specialty flavors.

    A grab and go place

    A grab and go kind of place. Only one bench to sit on. If you don't get here quickly, there may be a line, but it does move pretty quickly. Employees were friendly and patient. Definitely go for the caramel pecan cinnamon roll. I will have to say this may be the best cinnamon roll I've ever had. The dough was soft and there is something special about that cream cheese sauce. You just have to try it for yourself and see!

    Definitely a must try in cincy. My favorite is the blueberry lemon. Their rolls are fresh, light, and airy with the perfect amount of sweetness. There is no seating, so grab and go!

    Biscoff

    Such a cute place! I got the Biscoff cinnamon roll and iced caramel latte. Both were amazing and I can't wait to try more cinnamon rolls from here. Service and staff were also great!

    Solid cinnamon roll. I tried the caramel pecan and lemon blueberry. Not overwhelming rich. Best of all, it wasn't a dry cinnamon roll, which is my usual complaint. Doughy and fresh. Good little weekend stop for a sweet treat. Biggest complaint was zero spots to stop and eat. They had a single bench out front but it was taken. Staff were friendly and later asked if we enjoyed it, which was sweet.

    If you haven't experienced The Roll yet, you're truly missing out. They craft exquisite cinnamon rolls that are irresistibly soft and airy, with an aroma that beckons from afar. The staff are exceptionally warm and welcoming, making every visit a delight. I highly recommend indulging in the blueberry-lemon and pistachio flavors--they are nothing short of sublime.

    Very nice staff! Pecan cinnamon roll was great. Many options to pick from. Parking on street was easy.

    Here at the roll, you get about six choices that range from $4.75 to$6.75. Some options include sugar glaze, blueberry, cinnamon roll, chocolate cinnamon roll, and pecan, pistachio. If you're not gonna get there at 8:45 and willing to stand in line for 20 to 30 minutes, please do not come. They do sell coffee and Matcha however I did not try that usually these places niche are the bakery items and not the coffee. So try your at own risk and maybe let me know. The cinnamon rolls are served pretty warm. They travel well they give them to you in A to go box. I wasn't given a bag however two cinnamon rolls seem to fit well in a box. You definitely have to pre-plan because of parking it is downtown but if you go on a Sunday, luckily you don't have to pay the park at 2 PM. Lastly ambience wise it is a small space but once you get there to order your in and out. Be careful because the line could wrap around the corner quickly. This isn't something I would frequent weekly but go with friends to try a few and support local business.
