Lawrence Baking Company

I’ve only utilized the bakery part of this place. I’ve never ate the buffet’s they have. They have delicious baked goods. They have danishes, cookies, donuts, muffins, & bagels. I’ve never been disappointed by anything I’ve ate. The staff has always been nice to me as well.

Friendly staff, but I really can’t recommend this place for brunch. I came on a Sunday and had their buffet. Nothing was particularly tasty or even hot. I wished I had gone somewhere else (like Café Audrey, just a few blocks away, where I had eaten the day before). The building and décor were also a bit… rough around the edges.
I’d would like to say, however, that their baked goods (cookies, cakes, doughnuts, etc.) looked good, and while I was eating, several folks came in for large orders. I’m sure that’s their strength.

Located at 8255 Pendleton Pike, is the Lawrence Baking Company. From the outside the restaurant resembles a typical fast food diner, but this place anything but typical. The parking lot seems to extend forever. Mostly because the other businesses in the area don’t attract enough customers to occupy the entire parking lot. This means that parking isn’t a problem at this location.
If you’re looking to drop some serious money on a good breakfast, you might want to consider going someplace else. This is not a high end luxurious restaurant, so you won’t be charged as if it was. The drive thru is one of the most basic systems I’ve ever seen. That’s great for customers. A penny saved is a penny earned, and the customers definitely get that feeling.
In regards to the actual food, I’ll take the Einstein challenge any day of the week, except Mondays. The Lawrence Baking Company doesn’t do Mondays, but their open every other day of the week. Try the Blueberry Bagel with lots of cream cheese. That’s typically how my Tuesday mornings start, with a huge smile on my face once I’ve finished that delicious bagel. The Lawrence Baking Company is a great choice for breakfast.
