Root-A-Bakers Bakery & Cafe — Restaurant in Morehead

I honestly can say when I pass through KY and I’m able to get to this place I am definitely grabbing me a meal and a few desserts! It was my 1st time there and a young lady heard me say that and next thing I know, there was a sugar cookie and a smile standing next to me. She was so nice and said this is for you since it’s your 1st time, welcome! I was given a tour and a description of each treat I saw. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich on cranberry wheat bread. Delish!!! I had the pasta salad and a peach sweet tea. I loved it all. The only thing I wasn’t expecting the peaches inside. I think it’s great to have in there but when I ate them after the tea was gone m, it didn’t taste much like peaches and the texture was stiff on most on them. The deserts were BOMB though! I grabbed a few more sugar cookies for my glam babies, a bird’s nest, a deconstructed German chocolate cake and the oowee gooey bar, plus a bunny shaped dog treat for our fur baby. I recommend this place just like it was to me. Thank you all in there who gave me such a nice welcome, even the locals were welcoming me. I didn’t get pics once I got home it was late and by the time we woke up the bag was already dug into once it was seen so we enjoyed the treats together. That bowl was the pasta salad and the other was what the sandwich came in. That drink didn’t...

So surprised to find this unique spot has so few reviews. After traveling all over the lower 48, I will have to say Root-A-Bakers is in our top nationwide picks overall. From the friendly staff, appearance and most of all the delicious array of offerings, it's unparalleled. We had the bacon and spinach quiche, along with the choose three salads. We chose chicken, pimento cheese and pasta. Also tried the loaded potato salad and broccoli and cauliflower salad. Breads are baked daily and offerings include cheddar herb and cranberry walnut. We did not have a bad bite. And the desserts are "to die for." We tried the famous sugar cookies and the scones. If you're looking for a breakfast scone, try the sausage and cheddar one. It's unbelievable and not hard like typical sconces. So delicious! This place is so much more than a bakery. You will not leave hungry, portions are huge and you'll have a smile...

I ordered a special cake for my wife's birthday a few days in advance. Unfortunately, when I arrived to pick it up, I was told that the order had been forgotten. Although I was deeply disappointed, I understand that things like this happen from time to time. The lady at the counter apologized profusely and attempted to make amends. I was then contacted buy who I assume was the owner or manager also apologizing and trying to help me any way she could. Even though I didn't get what I'd hoped for, I would be foolish not to recommend Root-A-Bakers to everyone. Their level of commitment to customer satisfaction and the courtesy I was shown isn't seen often these days and it really makes a world of difference. I will continue to buy treats provided by Root-A-Bakers from a friend's coffee shop and when I eventually make my way back to Morehead, I'll make sure to...
