What a great little gem of a place. I am always looking for a great scone and I finally found a great place for that craving! There isn’t much to place and when you walk in it is somewhat underwhelming BUT the whole purpose of a bakery is to make great baked goods and that is definitely being done. I grabbed the Blueberry Scone and a coffee and because it was my first time in I also grabbed a salted caramel cookie to go. Starting with the scone it was cooked perfectly and slightly different than most scones I have had. It was full of flavor, not dry and shaped differently than the typical triangle being a square as pictured! The Salted Caramel cookie wasn’t eaten until much later in the day and it kept wonderfully and was incredible tasting with an awesome blend of flavors. This place is fantastic and it will become a new place in my rotation.

We haven’t even finished sampling what I just took home but I can already say that this is my favorite bakery in Lexington. The cinnamon roll and the honey roll were absolutely unreal. Got there right at opening and they were still warm. WOW. So fresh, so soft, perfect amount of icing. The cold brew coffee is also delicious. Super nice folks as well! We’ll absolutely be back!

Delicious cinnamon rolls and coffee! Hands down, best rolls I’ve ever had- and the coffee was definitely the best in Lexington. (Light roast/black)…
And, I don’t know if the gentleman working there had a sixth sense that I had been having a rough morning and was running late due to a coffee disaster at home that prompted a complete wardrobe change as I was rushing out the door…. But, he gave me a hazelnut brownie to try- and it was unbelievable
We had a special team breakfast to celebrate 14 years of business today, and this definitely made it special!

Hands down best cookies ever! We ordered a cinnamon roll, oatmeal pie cookie and one of their special blackberry jam doozy cookies. All were delicious and they also gave us an extra salted caramel chocolate cookie. This is one of the best bakeries I’ve been to and I’ll be coming again when I’m back in Lexington!

I went two days in a row and loved it. The first day I went was closer to closing to time. The cinnamon rolls were still good, it’s just that they leave their pastries on a rack so eventually they dry a little throughout the day. But I went early in the morning again, and their pastries were warm and fresh. Courteous staff!!:) Recommend going closer to 8:30 after the initial rush.

Great baked goods – the strawberry roll was incredible! They even gave me a free cookie for my first visit. The owners were also very fun conversation- definitely worth a stop!

I got there at 8:04 and there were three people in front of me. By 8:11, when it was my turn, they were already out of bacon-pimento cheese scones. If you’re only going to make enough of something for three people, maybe don’t advertise it as one of the first things on the menu. Amazing cinnamon rolls though.

I was recommended by a friend to try Futile Bakery and I am so glad I did! The warm cinnamon rolls are my favorite. The staff has always been so pleasant as well.
