    This is my favorite place to get dinner and dessert! It was my partners first time visiting this location and he said it became his new spot for sweets…not to mention the food is amazing and cooked to perfection( I definitely recommend the baked fontina for an appetizer) The service was outstanding, and our server Maddy was so sweet, attentive and made this visit so very special. 10/10

    My mom and I have a tradition of dining at The Cake Bake Shop in Broad Ripple every January - it's a Christmas gift from me to her. It's something to look forward to when it is cold and dreary outside after the holidays are over. As always, the food was delicious, the store was beautifully decorated, and the service was outstanding.

    One of the most beautiful restaurants I’ve visited. Located in a beautiful house, the Cake Bake Shop is a fairyland with sparkles, shine and stuffed animals everywhere. Even the potato chips glitter, courtesy of edible glitter, and there’s lots details like freshly sharpened color pencils for kids and a “dragon wish” show. This location isn’t as large as the Carmel location - be warned that there were only 2 restrooms - with a more limited menu, but the same impeccable design and amazing service. Chicken velvet soup and the ham rosemary quiche are perfect cold weather choices. Also love the Petunia punch.

    This was our first visit to the original location! Although I was extremely disappointed they didn’t have the avocado stack the entire experience for my daughters and granddaughters (6) and I was outstanding!! It’s a beautiful quaint little place and much quieter than the Carmel location! Food , cakes and service beyond amazing! Such a great memory for us all ! I have to say I ADORE the takeout bags they send with you !!

    We were the last reservation of the night, so no one else was in the restaurant. It was such an enjoyable experience, and our server, Stella, was so kind, as well as everyone else working that night.

    It's fun to enjoy a special dining experience in a beautiful setting - one you can't get anywhere else. (That said, prepare to pay premium prices.) The chai tea latte was my favorite, served delicious and piping hot in a china cup. The chicken velvet soup was a little thinner than I expected; the blackberry avocado spinach salad was an ample portion and crisp and fresh.
