Highly recommend. Best scones I’ve ever had in my life. Tried raspberry scone and mud pie scone. NOT TOO SWEET! You can taste the actual raspberries and cocoa instead of a bunch of sugar. Would definitely visit again when I pass by Bloomington! Thank you for actually delicious pastries 🥮 yum!
Only had time to get a couple cookies. Ordered a cherry pie and a peanut butter cookie. The cherry pie cookie was like a thumbprint cookie without the nuts and on what seemed like a shortbread cookie. It was very good. Wife liked the peanut butter cookie and notepad that it was pretty soft as she tried to pick it up, it fell apart.
I’m new to Illinois and I love baked goods. Stopped here for the first time today, grabbed an egg & cheddar, ham & mozzarella, and a raspberry ribbon. Stopped to sit on a bench and tried the egg & cheddar, finished it alone which I wouldn’t normally do lol. Safe to say I give this place 5 starts off the egg & cheddar alone! Yet to try the other two . Also, amazing prices!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 06/23/2026 Ivy Lane Bakery is absolutely deserving of five stars! I would crawl across the dessert table for their sugar cookies—they are that good. Every treat is fresh, delicious, and made with care. Their desserts were a fantastic addition to our SuperTech Day celebration, helping us recognize and celebrate the outstanding service technicians of Childers Door Service of Central Illinois, LLC. The quality, presentation, and flavor were exceptional, and they were a huge hit with everyone in attendance. Thank you, Ivy Lane Bakery, for helping make our event even more special. We look forward to enjoying your amazing baked goods again soon! 🍪🎉👏
Amazing little bakery in downtown Bloomington! Great service and great food!
One of my students introduced this place to me, and I am so glad she did! The sugar cookies are delectable. I like how they feature different cookies, muffins, and scones each week—it is fun to see what they have!
