Reviews Frank's Bake Shop & Catering

You can't drive through Bangor without hearing about Frank's at least a dozen times. It has been a bakery institution in Bangor since 1947 and still maintains the family feel. Need a sugary pick me up? Stop by in the morning for a fresh baked doughnut; hungry for lunch? Try their turkey or chicken pies or one of their deli sandwiches. Husband's birthday? Call a day ahead to have a custom cake made. Need to send cookies with him to work? Drop by in the morning to select some of their freshly made and designed lobsters, moose, birthday or seasonal selections. Their cookies are fabulous and reminded me of my hometown local cookery. I wanted to eat the entire dozen I had purchased in store. Their cakes have the perfect "icing to cake ratio" for those of you who cringe at the thought of too much icing. Their cakes are moist and decadent. You can also pick up pre-made cookie or cake mixes or other small baking supplies ins store as well. Whether you are passing through or staying for good, make sure you make Frank's a part of your Bangor experience.

For pastry and now sandwiches..... Frank's is THE place! It's been a local landmark for eons and the crowds near any holiday can strip the place bare. Many locals wouldn't think of going to work without stopping for coffee and donuts at Franks. Now, with their sandwich offerings, you can pick up your lunch at the same time. Despite a fast and efficient staff, sometimes there's a wait but it's well worth it. Can't recommend it enough!
