Andrew's Pastries

In the area for a few days and wanted a breakfast treat and some for later. I read this was the spot. It is a traditional old school bakery and definitely popular. We opted to try some donuts, fresh out of oven chocolate chip cookies, biscotti and when in Ohio had to try Buckeyes (original and butterfinger).

On one of our "out for a drive" weekend, we stopped by Andrews Pastries in Marion, Ohio. We always look for new places for our donut quest (best tasting/longest lasting). The donuts we bought were not the freshest that we have had. The taste was not all that bad, just didn't have the fresh taste that they should have., and after about 4 hours, they really lose their freshness fast! The atmosphere of the shop was nice and clean. If you are going to eat the donuts there, they would be better, but don't expect anything good after 4 hours. I do not recommend this place for donuts.

Incredible, local bakery. Great cookies, pastries, doughnuts and world famous Buckeyes. This place is a must visit, old fashioned bakeries rock! Thanks for staying in business and passing on the amazing taste of homemade and local recipes. Must try the fresh, massive Buckeyes with fudge like peanut butter and top quality milky chocolate!!

So Im struggling to rate this place between a 3 and 4 star.Some of the items were delicious and some simply average.The pastries/doughnuts Id recommended: Blueberry old fashioned doughnut has a moist texture very flavorful and nice amount of glaze.The anise or black licorice cookie is also delicious. The pecan praline bar has great flavor and texture.The items that were jusy okay were the nut glazed long john. Very little creme inside and dry. The sugar coated cake doughnut was also dry. The jelly thumbprint cookie was also dry.On a very positive note, the staff was friendly and efficient. Overall 3.5 and check it out for yourself!

AMAZING! Just moved to Marion County and found Andrews Pastries, and feel like I just hit the jackpot. The owner is so outgoing and so nice. I got assortment of pasties and everyone looks so good and taste delicious. I would recommend everyone to stop in and give it a try and I am sure hooked too!

If I could give no stars I would. Terrible experience, terrible owner, terrible service. Rude, not helpful, rushed and it was not busy at the time I went. Ambiance awful, I did not even stay to purchase anything but I would never give my money to such an awfully ran business.

I don't understand how people can possibly like the doughnuts from this place? My Uncle brings them over from time to time and they are overly sweet, dry and hardly contain any filling. I asked them once to make me a dozen eclairs and a dozen cream puffs. They didn't even make a choux pastry for the eclairs and cream puffs and they used the same filling for both the cream puffs and the eclairs, if you can believe that. It was some type of whipped cream filling, but it really tasted off. What a joke. Total incompetence. If you don't know how to make something, just tell me that up front instead of making it up as you go along and turning out some hot garbage.

This is the best food in Marion because of the pastries are amazing yum mi think the best thing to ever get is the

Really wonderful bakery. Friendly staff. Especially great carrot cupcakes, cream horns & donuts.

Being a traveler, I've had many-a-dounut all over the world. Better than some, but not the best. A little too much cane sugar, not quite enough powdered sugar. I like the outside of the cake, but the inside could be more fluffier with a hint of doughier. As far as Ohio is concerned, the best is still shulers bakery in Springfield. But it's better than Krispy Kreme.
