Livy Cakes & Two Roasting Joes

0 stars for coffee shop, 2 because I'm sure their baked goods are fine. Rude staff, no espresso.

As I walked in, I immediately noticed the smell of roasting coffee. I love a local roaster and was excited at the opportunity to sample a new artist's work. The tables were covered with broken curtains, and crafts. NO big deal, I assume they are discouraging dine in as COVID is on the rise (Sept '21)

I went in and after waiting at least 10 minutes to be acknowledged, ordered an Americano. The rude woman behind the counter yelled at the barista, "it's not on our menu." He relayed the message.

Thinking maybe they didn't know what it was I asked, "do you have espresso." I was informed that our espresso machine was down. The problem is, they had just taken orders for a cappuccino and a latte. I can only assume they are making lattes with drip coffee.

It's bad enough that a bakery masquerading as a coffee shop would not care enough to fix their (very old) espresso machine, but to pass off drip coffee in a latte or cap is inexcusable. This place is obviously not for coffee drinkers, but for cupcake lovers. Which is fine, but they cost me time on the road and a great deal of confusion with their deception.

Extremely disappointing....only 6 flavors of cupcakes and all were ordinary flavors..choc,van,lemon,almond,pumpkin spice and snickerdoodle. No brownies at all. They did have cookies and truffles but extremely limited on those also. I think there was three diff. flavors of cookies nothing special and maybe 5 diff truffles nothing special or out of the ordinary. No cakes. No cannolis. There were just 2 slices of cheesecake a vanilla and a banana choc. What they show on their website your not gonna find in the building. They didn't have anything that I could not have gotten at Kroger or Walmart bakeries. They do carry a lot of flavored coffees so if you want coffee sure pop in but if your looking for a lil something special or different in baked goods it's not gonna be here. ☹️

I have ordered several cakes, the detail on the cakes are so perfect and taste of the different flavors are worth it. My favorite by far is the no bake cake. WOW! They also sell cake toppings( cake crumble smothered in icing) and a portion from every box sold goes to a local charity. There is not any reason to go anywhere else for your sweet tooth.

Don’t doubt urself, forget the price just do it. U won’t regret it.
Lissen....I never give reviews but I have to do this one. I ordered a military cake for my uncle’s birthday , I believe this may be the very first military cake design on this platform Due to that I was at first hesitant but I trusted my Instinct & gave it a try. When I say they “nailed It”. They delivered nothing short of excellence. They pretty much showed up & showed out!!!! ❤️ Every bit of it and oh, plus their customer service was too superb! Thank u for putting a smile on my face. Absolutely worth it!!!

Absolutely loved the cake we ordered! I ordered a Crown Royal (whiskey) themed cake for my boyfriends 28th birthday. They were so nice, and professional. The cake was beautiful and delicious.

We are from out of town and ordered a birthday cake over the phone for a large party. We were serving 12 adults and 4 children, so we ordered a half sheet cake, assuming some left over for taking home. When we picked it up, the cake was beautifully decorated. However, it was almost double in height from a standard sheet cake, and weighed over 40 lbs. It was taller than the box, and so they taped the lid so it would not smash the cake. When we cut into it at the party, it turned out to be more frosting than cake, which explained the heaviness. It was so rich it was almost inedible. We ended up with over half the cake remaining after everyone had a large piece. Not only was it a waste of cake, it was not that good because the proportions were so off. We were very disappointed.

Livy's bakery has Huge Buckeyes! Lots of other goodies. Wash it down with fresh brewed 2roating joes!!!

The cakes have coffee flavor. I ordered strawberry, lemon, chocolate and vanilla and they all had the overpowering coffee taste which is not advertised. The cookies were thick and had no taste. The cookies were not edible! I order 200 dollars worth of cakes for a graduation party and the decorations fell off in the car! Over priced and awful!!! Kroger would have tasted better and been cheaper!

My husband is a cookie connoisseur, bought him a cookie and a cupcake yesterday, he said it was the best cookie he ever ate! And the chocolate/peanut butter cupcake, while very rich was delicious! I will be back for more treats! Thanks for all you do.

The cupcakes look beautiful but arent the best in town. Everything, I mean EVERY SINGLE BAKED GOOD taste like coffee. Two Roasted Joe's is some of the best coffee in town though.
