We are thrilled to introduce you to Hender's Bake Shop & Cafe, a delightful spot located on Main Street in downtown Waterbury, Vermont. Our charming bakery is housed in a beautiful historical house, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere for our guests.
Hender's Bake Shop & Cafe was established in 2016, named after our beloved Golden Retriever, Henderson. We are passionate about creating a place where people can enjoy delicious homemade pastries, a perfect cup of coffee, and a comfortable environment to relax and unwind.
Our Specialties
Our menu features a variety of mouthwatering treats and beverages, all carefully crafted by our skilled bakers and baristas. Our signature item is our famous Number Cakes, which are made-to-order and customizable to fit any occasion or theme. These unique cakes are shaped like numbers and decorated with sugar cookies that reflect your favorite sports teams, movies, hobbies, books, or colors. They come in two sizes, making them perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or corporate events.
In addition to our Number Cakes, we also offer a selection of homemade pastries, including traditional crullers, cinnamon buns, and other creative concoctions. Our bakery is renowned for its freshly baked goods, which are made from scratch every day. From sweet treats like muffins and scones to savory items such as quiches and sandwiches, there's something for everyone at Hender's Bake Shop & Cafe.
We also offer a variety of beverages, including drip coffee from Burlington roaster Earthback Coffee and award-winning espresso from Beanstock Coffee. Whether you're in the mood for a strong cup of coffee or a delicate espresso, we've got you covered.
