I have heard raving reviews about Batch. On my boss' wedding, his family literally catered the entire Batch Bakehouse collection for the guests, ranging from muffins to brownies to pound cakes to cookies and everything else you can imagine. So needless to say I had the opportunity to try out the shop in a week with all the leftovers he brought in for work. Super cool!!!
And then after that I can't stop and found myself going back on a regular basis to get their pastries and cakes. I like their system of calling in to ask if they have your favorite item on your craving list. And they will happily reserve items for you until you stop in to get them later in the day. Because I love their lemon pound cakes to much I will call in before stopping by, especially since I live in the west and stopping by would mean making a pretty long drive way out east. But I have no qualms about it. As I find myself handsomely rewarded with my cravings.
Batch staff are really polite and didn't pester us when we take forever to make up our minds what we wanted. Because to be honest I would want everything if I could. Which is why it always took me so long to decide whether I want to go for something new or to stick with my usual favs. They also bake fresh from scratch daily so everything is fresh out of the oven! *yum yum*
