The Rolling Pin — Local services in Olympia

Shout out about this inconspicuous place that is so amazing, esp when visited in combination with the cafe downstairs. Even by itself it's worth the hike up the stairs. If you enjoy any style of cooking or baking, or coffee making, you will find terrific supplies to make your work in the kitchen more efficient, mo' betta, more fun, and even more stylish. They've got a wide range from some really handy inexpensive tools to custom locally forged wares that are other-worldly. The owner is a very hardworking and creative buyer, I have to say. I found just the things I needed to expand my current sourdough work and I was very tempted by the neighboring display of pastry gear to launch into something new. Even my wife found a couple of items she loved, which is no easy task. Grab a hand pie from the cafe downstairs and enjoy the outdoor rooftop seating for a shopping break while you're at it!...

I had an excellent experience buying a higher-end knife from The Rolling Pin. I spoke directly by phone with Marty, the Manager, and the time and expertise he shared with me was vital to making a decision from dozens of choices. I chose a knife from The Rolling Pin that was not otherwise available in my area. The physical shop is closed to the public, but since this knife featured a walnut handle, Marty honored my request to choose the one from his stock with the prettiest wood grain! That above-and-beyond service under difficult circumstances is why we hope to shop at The Rolling Pin again...

I was delighted to see that my curbside pickup order was wrapped in fun tissue paper and put into a little gift bag. I had so much fun opening my "present" and unwrapping my goodies. This store has a great selection of baking supplies and more things that I never knew I needed before... and now I really want them all. I got an Octopus cookie cutter and a Llama cookie cutter, bottles for icing and a silicone mat to bake my cookies on. I'm one happy customer and I'll definitely be...
