"Only giving 2 stars food wise because the ham/cheese croissant should’ve just been call “croissant with ham and cheese seasoning”. The croissant part was alright but no ham or cheese except a couple sad pieces. The chocolate croissant was better because it had decent filling and the snickerdoodle cookie was also good. Maybe would come again but definitely wouldn’t buy the “ham and cheese” croissant ever again."

"I ordered 2 cakes because my kids birthdays are 5 days apart. The 9" Chocolate lovers was amazing, but the 9" white chocolate cake with Raspberry buttercream and no filling was all wrong. They did white buttercream with raspberry filling. I was really happy to find a bakery that did different flavored buttercreams and was let down to see my daughter disappointed in her cake."

"A small and cozy café inside a bookstore, perfect for a quick bite or just a coffee. It’s convenient and ideal for grabbing a pastry while visiting the bookstore."

"I’ve been getting coffee here daily for years and always loved it. I probably spend $400 a month at this dang place. My brother, who also lives and works in the area, tells me constantly how awful the customer service is there when you order food- to the point where he refuses to go. I’m celiac and can’t eat anything over there so I hadn’t ever experienced what I did today. Today we’re at the bookstore together and I decided we need to make a coffee stop. My brother, Loren, orders a sandwich. He says he needs it to go. Person at the register is pleasant enough. I order a coffee separately and am quickly served. We wait a bit for the sandwich, and we finally go up to the counter after maybe ten minutes and see the same sandwich he ordered in a basket. It has a ticket on it that says “Owen.” Easy mistake, really. He says, “Is this maybe Loren’s?” And the person behind the counter immediately snaps “it says Owen.” Okay. So we wait a few more minutes. We’re now 15 minutes out and several people who ordered after are served. He steps up and say “hey, I ordered a BLTA on sourdough for Loren, I think it may have been put in under Owen, but-“ and before he can finish his thought they snap back at him again “it’s probably yours because this one hasn’t been picked up.” At this point he’s like, “okay, I ordered mine to go- could I-“ and the girl behind the counter slams a box on the counter and says “here’s a box.” And turns away. I’m annoyed, because while I understand we have inconvenienced you, who is standing here chatting with an off-duty coworker for 30 minutes, we literally did nothing to deserve the attitude. Loren scoops the sandwich out of the basket and puts it into the box and this girl has the nerve to turn around and say “dirty dishes go behind you at the service bar.” Oh, so now we have to bus YOUR hand off table, too? No sorry, no thank you, not even the offer to box up his food or put away the freaking basket. Is it because Loren is very clearly not white? Or is it because this lady today had a bad day and took it out on someone for interrupting her mid-shift gossip about how the mall security is full of idiots who don’t do their job? Go ahead and take a gamble and let me know, because I won’t be back."

"Honey Bear Bakery is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, the warm, inviting atmosphere makes you feel right at home. Then you add the awesome bookstore directly across the sitting area and you have the best oall worlds.…. Coffee, Pastries, Sandwiches, Reading, and more. Their selection of sandwiches, pastries and baked goods is nothing short of spectacular. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready with a smile and a helpful suggestion. It's clear they take great pride in their work, and it shows in every delicious bite. I highly recommend the cinnamon rolls—they're out of this world! Whether you're stopping by for a quick coffee or looking to satisfy your sweet tooth with a special treat, Honey Bear Bakery never disappoints. It's the kind of place you can't wait to visit again and again."
