Lorraine's Bake Shop — Restaurant in Montgomery

What an amazing find! I had this place bookmarked before leaving Tampa. It just happened to pop up on Google reviews as being a new bakery. I didn't exactly know where it was until the baristas at Prevail Union pointed me in the right direction. Low and behold, it was right across the street from Lower Dexter Park and next door to Island Delight. It's difficult to see the sign from across the street. Just look for the mixing tools on the glass windows.

It's such a cozy atmosphere. It has a farm house feel. There's lots of seating. I believe they serve coffee and tea as well. Lorraine was very friendly, and gave us an introduction to all of her baked goodies. I knew I hit the bakery jackpot as soon as I entered. The aroma of fresh baked cookies hit me almost immediately. I couldn't get just one item. I ended up getting the very popular ginger oatmeal cream pie. There was already a customer eating one of these cookie sandwiches when we arrived. He wasn't the first to recommend it. One of the baristas at Prevail Union said that I must get one. She was right. I split it with my brother who also thought it was very good. I loved it so much that I got another one the next day. Only this time, I didn't share it. All the cookies I had throughout the 3 days I was there were delicious. My personal favorites are the white chocolate macadamia and the chocolate chip cookies. I only wish I had bought more to take home with me. Everything I had was freshly baked with love.

This will be on the top of my list the next time I'm in MGM. I'm hoping to go back one day soon with my husband. It's THE place to go if you have a sweet tooth like me. It's a short walk from all the museums, hotels, and stadium. They also bake for special occasions. All of you living in MGM are so lucky to have it. Support this new...

I am so beyond impressed. I visited Lorraine’s and all of the baked goods were absolutely perfect. I’m not a big fan of M&M cookies but tried my son’s and was tempted to steal the whole thing. The oatmeal cream pie was superb, and the gingerbread was some of the best I’ve ever had. But what really makes this place special is Lorraine. We visited for the first time during Christmas in July and the way she greeted everyone that came in made it feel like we were truly being invited in to Santa’s bakery by the happiest elf alive. A lot of places want you to feel like you’re being invited into someone’s home, but it was crazy just how much it felt like we were hanging out in someone’s kitchen. The atmosphere is incredible, so cozy and welcoming. Lorraine’s is truly something...

Over the last two weeks, my husband has been traveling to Montgomery for work. The restaurant he works for is two doors down from Lorraine’s. Located in historic Montgomery. Her shoppe is cozy and eclectic. My husband has returned home with the most yummy treats. The Pumpkin Cookie with Penuche is my favorite because it not too sweet and has a rich buttery icing. The Gingerbread Oatmeal Cream Pie is delicious. Anyone know Coach Saban? Send him some. He loves Little Debbie’s. This is far better than any little Debbie. Lorraine my husband loves Brownies and White Macadamia Cookies. So, maybe the next time you see him you’ll have some for him. Please and thanks. Support your local downtown communities!!!
