Super cute little bakery with specialty items. Decorative cookies along with cupcakes, sweet breads, scones, and a variety of items.

It has very good service and the people who work there are very nice and friendly. The sugar cookies are very good and nicely decorated. They have awesome banana bread. Also they make good pies that are just the right size for parties that taste great. Able baker has very good seating options. Sometimes it is crowded but it is still a very nice place to sit. Even if it is raining you can still sit there because there is a covered roof. Able baker is a very nice place to get a treat

Small little bakery at the edge of town in maplewood. They serve amazing cupcakes pies along with other special pastries and desserts. This past weekend I walked in and they had blueberry Pop-Tarts! First of all anything blueberry is amazing put it into a dessert and you've got heaven! Their coffee and teas are also delicious, perfect combo. If you're in town give them a try!

Fantastic bakery. I go most times I'm up visiting my sister. You basically can't go wrong with what you order. Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread is next level delicious and I'm not a big pumpkin person, but it's my favorite. Able Baker also has the very best Banana Bread I've ever had and it tastes divine without butter, something I never imagined for any banana bread because usually I'm a "the more the merrier" kind of person when it comes to butter on bread. My nieces love their Scones, especially the Chocolate Chip ones. The Blueberry Coffee Cakes and Breads are wonderful, the Lemon Blueberry is my favorite among them. And the cupcakes and cakes are great. Just finished ordering their Black and White Cake for a family birthday party, and highly recommend, think it's the best of their cakes.

This bakery is so so good. I am normally not a fan of cookies but I love their handcrafted cookies- we tried for Halloween! Their cupcakes are great too and the ones I ordered for my kiddo’s birthday are amazing and beautiful. I can’t wait to try their other stuff even though I don’t have a sweet tooth 😉. 6 stars for the cupcakes and handcrafted cookies! Friendly staff too 🙂
