Agan’s Bakery

Let me start by saying if you need a Birthday Cake of any importance TRY SOMEONE ELSE. My Father in law has a 80^th birthday coming up Very, Very Special event. He is a retired Football Coach and we wanted to do something special. Every time we were talking to the guy at this location (Agan’s) trying to explain what we wanted he interrupted, tell us it couldn’t be done or even insulted at one time saying Can you afford it if we go to that extreme. WOW Really one yes we can afford it and two when a customer calls don’t constantly interrupt them when they are trying to explain what they want.
Trust me if asked he will remember us as my Wife told him business must be good because you have the worst phone etiquette ever.
Save your self find another Bakery we did thank goodness in the area. Use your Unilocal to locate more location and read reviews first.

Let me start by saying that we really enjoy the baked goods at Agans. The cookies, and oh my goodness the rolls.
Unfortunately however we are done playing the Thanksgiving game of trying to get rolls for dinner.
The last two years we have phoned two days before to place an order only to arrive on Wed to find nothing was set aside for us. We’ve either had to come back after 4 o’clock to «see what was available» or someone was able to get me some anyway.
This year we skipped calling since we’ve learned that it didn’t seem to matter anyway to be told to once again try back after 4 and there was no way they could allow me to place and pay for an order to insure the return trip was worth it.
I’m done with the Mickey Mouse reservation system here.
We will be getting our holiday goods from a place in Marietta from now on.
What you phone ahead for there is always ready and waiting for you when you arrive.

Every Christmas I order their famous gingerbread cookies. I drive 50 minutes from Atlanta for theses things. All of their products are great, friendly people, great hometown bakery.

This is a great little bakery. I tried a cinnamon roll with raisins. It was great. I’m wishing I had one right now. I also took home a s’mores cookie, oatmeal raisin cookie and peanut butter cookie… all were yummy. I will stop here again next time I’m in Cartersville.

I want to say that the food at Agan’s is good, but the incident that just happened to my husband and I will make us NEVER go back again. After being a loyal customer for years, I called to order their famous rolls for Christmas. (as I’ve done many times before) I was told that they were no longer taking orders, but they’d have some coming out of the oven in 30 minutes and would have plenty to accommodate my request for 3 dozen. My husband rushed down there, stood in line for 15 – 20 minutes just to be told that there weren’t any more. The cashier told him to come back in 45 minutes. My husband asked if he could GO AHEAD AND PAY FOR THEM IN ADVANCE and pick them up in 45 minutes. He was told NO! So, he left and returned in 35 minutes and again stood in the lengthy line. When he got to the cash register he was told that there weren’t any (although every bit of counter surface was covered with them). He politely told the cashier that he had made two trips and had followed the directions that he was given. He also reminded her that he had offered to PAY for the rolls in advance. He was told, «Too bad, there aren’t any, but we will have some more in 45 minutes.» Again he offered to pay in advance, but was rejected. I can understand having special rules around the holidays, but when a customer offers to pay in advance and come back to pick them up after being told three times to come back, there just isn’t any excuse. We will never shop there again and will tell all our friends (who are also faithful customers) about how we were treated. So much for hometown hospitality!

Try the crème cheese brownies. You will never eat another brownie with as much love again. My all time favorite dessert from anywhere, EVER. Love this place, have never had anything bad from them.

Can’t believe I haven’t written a review for the best damn sugar cookies on the planet. Agan’s is an old school family bakery that sometimes runs out of things, but they always have something fresh coming out of the oven. I haven’t had a bad thing from them and it is a required stop when my parole officer requires me to report, joke Jail is on the next street.

My wife and I happened on Agan’s Bakery after we had lunch in Cartersville at Swheat’s Organic restaurant just down the street. This bakery is awesome. Just a good old time bakery.
Their signature cookie is a pecan sandye with a dollop of milk chocolate in the center. The cookie itself is tasty and with the chocolate… just about perfection. We tasted other cookies like wedding cookies and chocolate chip, all were fantastic. The staff is pleasant and willing to explain ingredients, etc.
For those who live in the Atlanta area and love Rhodes Bakery, you will find that Agan’s may even surpass them. If you visit the Booth Museum, then make sure to have lunch at Swheat’s Organic restaurant (healthy) and then head over to Agan’s (it’s ok… you ate a healthy lunch).

Great bakery that has been producing sweets for many years. I always seem to get a tons and the price is low.

Awesome, hometown bakery. I’ve ordered cakes, catered the sweets at parties, and dropped in often. Excellent doughnuts and sweetbuns!
