Rhodes Bakery

Rhodes is great, but...

by Marlinchen at Citysearch

I went to Rhodes Bakery for my last birthday cake. The store was clean and the staff were very friendly, fast, and accommodating; they had no problem making the cake for Saturday when I ordered it on Thursday (granted, it was a rather simple sheet cake.) I was extremely pleased with the experience and would give the bakery a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that the actual cake was somewhat bland and the icing was far too sweet. It may have just been the kind that I ordered, but I felt like I basically just paid for the decoration because I could have made the exact same thing from a box.

• Pros: parking, prompt service, friendly staff
• Cons: food was just average

Dissapointed customer

by bakery101 at Citysearch

I went to this bakery becasue the 1st rater sounded so impressed. The caramel cake (that I drove 30 minutes for) was less than mediocre. The double layer cake was dry and uneven. I was completely disappointed in my purchase and they don't even take orders. I would never go back.

Best Caramel Cake in Atlanta

by saletlc at Citysearch

My family has been going to Rhodes since I was a kid. This place is amazing! You get a warm fuzzy feeling just walking in the place and the smell of freshly made icing is to die for. They make the best Caramel cake I have ever tasted- we get it every year for my mother and sister's birthdays. They make delicious petit-fours, cookies, and cheese straws as well. It has been family owned and operated since 1930 and after going there once, you will understand why they have survived all these years. I highly recommend you try this place. I am a lifetime customer.

• Pros: Everything is freshly made and delicious!
• Cons: no cons
