Bean Counter Bakery Cafe - Worcester

Amazing drinks and pastries. Highly recommend, can't wait to be back (I'm from out of town, but visit MA often)!

Smoothies are no good. Not fresh. Got food poisoning from it. Their coffee is the worst around. Never going there again.

Extremely upset they changed the way they make the Canoli

All the cookies and desserts look amazing.Ordered the Not Your Grandma’s cookies and Latte. The cookie is great, not very impressed by the coffee.Staff are very friendly.Vegetarian options: They have vegan bakery.

I’ve been waiting a while to write this review, as enough time has passed, but now looking back on our 4 month wedding anniversary, I want to shed light on the terrible experience that my husband, mother and best friend had to endure. It was my first cake tasting experience, so we were all very excited about the process. However, that excitement quickly dissipated once we spoke with the owner.On a positive note, the bakery itself was very pretty and brand new. However, the cakes themselves were overly sweet, the cake to filling ratio was completely off and there were tons of hidden fees. For instance, one of the samples we tried had a lemon sauce on it, but she informed us that sauce would be $50 extra if we went without it it would just be a plain vanilla slice. A plain white 3 tiered cake with delivery was already $1200–no decorations at all. I wanted fresh flowers to be added to the cake which would be an extra $250, even if I supplied my own flowers. The price, we were okay with, however she repeatedly tried to dissuade us from adding flowers as it would require her cake decorator to work on a Sunday…she kept insisting that we asked the florist to place the flowers instead. However, stated that if anything happened to the cake, it wouldn’t be her responsibility.We ended up choosing Gerardo’s bakery instead. It was less than half the price, the fresh flowers were placed at no extra charge and we got a lot more cake, as well. He was also a lot more transparent about pricing and was very flexible with our request. Hope this helps!
