Pretty mediocre honestly If they made some improvements to their food I would try it again

As an Englishman one of the things I miss most about home is savory pies, very hard to find here. This place is one of the few that does them and believe me they are very good indeed. The cakes are also very good. Just a lovely little bakery and one I visit every time I’m in the area.

their bread rolls are a must have for holiday dinners, and the almond chocolate croissants are stellar

The pastries were good. Plenty to choose from. Just a bit pricey.

I had a meat pie that was good. Plenty of sweets pastries for those with sweet tooths. And coffee, they grind and have their own roast. 👍🏻

I ordered a Blueberry muffin and a strawberry turnover, and an ice coffee. The food was so dry and over cooked and bitter it was honestly disgusting and I couldn't even eat it. 🤢 The iced coffee wasn't good either. The older lady working was not friendly at all. The ac was broken and it was 90 degrees out so it was hotter than an oven inside. Overall, It was just a horrible experience and I would not recommend anyone going here..

This bakery and coffee shop was a wonderful find. Very nice setting and the coffee and sandwiches were amazing. We sat outside under a sun umbrella.

Bought this strawberry and cream cake for my wife’s birthday. Visually the cake looked great. Unfortunately, the cake itself was overcooked and very dry! Disappointing considering all the good reviews.

I was salivating over the menu before going but most of what I was hoping to get wasn't available. I guess Saturday is the day for croissants and pies have to be pre ordered.

Fern leaf did a fantastic job of coming through with a last minute birthday cake request. The whole house loved the German chocolate cake.

Gorgeous treats! Everything was delicious, not too sweet, with emphasis on the flavor of the primary ingredient, e.g. the chocolate fudge brownie was deeply chocolatey and not buried in sugar, the cinnamon bun was spiced well with a little bit of a citrus aftertaste, and the dough was the right pull-apart consistency. The chocolate and vanilla cupcakes are moist and and hearty, and again not over-sweetened. The frosting was light and whipped, beautifully applied, and not overwhelming - the berry flavored frosting was especially nice, tart and sweet. Great customer service. My friend called in an order of a selection of goodies, and I was meant to pick them up in the morning - but I totally goofed and didn't get around to it until the shop called me a half hour before closing to let me know I had an order to collect. Tammy was very patient with my misunderstanding :) Wonderful small town family owned bakery. I really appreciate the COVID safety precautions as well - contactless curbside pick-up is still a very important safety measure, and I am thankful Fernleaf is making the effort to protect their staff and neighbors. Will definitely order special treats from these folks, and can't wait to enjoy a cup of coffee and a treat when they feel comfortable re-opening the cafe. Keep up the great work!

Food is great. On-line ordering is a little glitchy.

As a Saco resident, I am so disappointed!!! We stopped by for the first time today after we looked for a local bakery. Understandably, because of COVID, they have new restrictions in the way they do business. Their biggest restriction is the fact that one is not allowed to come in even when all other stores are already open to the public, this happened on 10/1/2020. Therefore, we called the number while parked outside to ask if we could learn about their products and the lady who answered the phone was so rude and cold. Her customer service skills were so poor! She literally terminated the call abruptly after yelling at me " you need to go online to learn about our cakes!". Never will I ever go back there.
