Pies, powdered donuts or a piece of cake?

Concannon's Bakery Cafe located in Muncie offers a huge variety of pastries and baked goods, as well as a coffee bar and a menu of delicious salads and sandwiches.

Chock full of sweet treats, the fragrant bakery has an tasty option for anyone.The store is bountiful with a varied repertoire of cakes, pies, cookies, donuts and more.

The bakery is separated into two sections, a store and a seating area. The store is a goldmine of sweet treats, while the seating area offers a spacious setting for guests to enjoy their sandwich, coffee or piece of pie.

Concannon's offers service that is just as sweet as their donuts. The smiling faces behind the pastry counter are ready to give recommendations or help guests however necessary.

Their coffee bar offers a variety of options, ranging from a spectacularly saccharine cinnamon roll latte to a simplistic, but classic americano. The baristas are pleasant and deliver a delicious drink.

In the seating area, the atmosphere is calm with quiet music playing in the background. The smells of fresh pastries drift throughout the store, giving customers a delightful sugar high before they even make a purchase.

Whether you're looking for a spot for a coffee date, or a peaceful environment to do homework, Concannon's is perfect. The service is wonderful and you just can't beat their classic glazed donut.

Concannon's Bakery Cafe is open all week, from 6 a.m. - 7 p.m. It is located at 4801 W Baker Ln, Muncie, IN 47304.

Overall Pros: There are so many affordable and delicious treats offered at the bakery, as well as a full lunch and dinner menu. The atmosphere is perfect for a coffee date or a homework sesh. The prices are totally reasonable and it's just a tad closer than other pastry options near Taylor.

Overall Cons: While the menu accommodates pastry preferences, it isn't quite as friendly to those with alternative diets like gluten-free, vegan or paleo.
