Yummilicious Cafe & Bakery

I can't say enough good things about Yummilicious Cafe! Her services go above and beyond! From the planning, to the setup, to the food ♥ everything was stress free and perfect! We could not have chosen anyone better to have done our wedding desert table and cake. Mersiha makes you feel welcomed and really takes care of you throughout the stressful wedding planning process. We highly recommend Yummilicious Cafe & Bakery for all of your desert needs! And the most important question - how did everything taste? Out of this world delicious! Every item was perfectly scrumptious! We actually hid the desert table behind a partition until it was time to cut the cake because I knew everything would have been gone before then! We continuously received compliments about our desert table and nothing was left behind! Mersiha even hid a sample of everything box for us because she knew we wouldn't be able to enjoy everything before our guests ate it all 😂. Also how dreamy is this set up?! Mersiha and her team drove an hour to our venue with the food and set everything up themselves! It turned out so magical ♥ I could keep going on and on but I think it's safe to safe, definitely get in contact with Yummilicious Cafe& Bakery and you won't be be disappointed 😊

And since I can not write two Google reviews I will just have to keep pouring praise onto this one 😂 Just recently we ordered a custom cake from Mersiha (our wedding was a few months ago) for our gender reveal party. The only design direction I gave was that it needed to be blue and say "It's a boy !" Apart from that any artistic embellishments were welcome. Our cake was done the following weekend and LOOK HOW CUTE it turned out! 🥺 We ordered a tres leches cake and it was Delicious!! Everyone once again was extremely pleased ❤

We were in the area for the weekend, we were looking where to go for breakfast , we see this spot with only 5 star reviews, so we decided to come here,
I gotta tell you it was the best decision!!
The food was delicious!! Drinks were amazing, loved the service, and the atmosphere is such a vibe!!! And the prices are really great!!!!

Overall this place gets 5 stars for everything!!!
Thank you so much for having us!!!

What a beautiful cake the owner made for our daughter’s birthday. Best tasting cake we have ever had. Owner went above & beyond to make our daughter’s day special. Blessed and grateful beyond words. Cake was delicious, stunning and so different. We absolutely loved it!

We also had a delicious breakfast that was amazing. What a gem this place it. The moment you walk in you feel at home. Everyone is so kind, helpful and the menu has such a nice variety. Definitely can’t wait to come back soon.

Food and service was fantastic. Got there shortly after it opened, placed my order. Got my coffee. My order came out after a few minutes. I sat enjoying a great tasting and filling breakfast. Upon paying the owner asked if it was my first time there. It was, I was given a complimentary dessert. I definitely will be eating there again.

Echoing the other reviews here: food and service was fantastic. We got the Bosnian Meza Plate - delicious and super filling - as well as Turkish coffee, a matcha latte, and fries. Everything was super good but will definitely be back for the Meza plate and especially fried dough it came with. Got some desserts to go which - surprise - were awesome too.

Delicious food and amazing desserts. Our book club was hosted there and they were mist accommodating.

The establishment is very clean and bright. The service was attentive and friendly along with being very informative. We had the special which consisted of sausage, eggs, bread and cheese. The mezza was also great. This was a lot of food be for warned. They also serve amazing pastries.

Bosnian/Turkish inspired Cuisine with a very chill and quirky atmosphere. Hint: Buy your desserts before your meal because they might be sold out by the time you're finished.

Visiting Utica for the weekend and looking for a nice spot for Sunday brunch. Yummilicious was an amazing surprise. Not too crowded, comfortable and clean decor, is a family owned and run Cafe with fantastic food. We had coffee, espresso and Turkish coffee. All three were high quality. I had the çilbir, poached eggs with yogurt and a spice infused butter, my wife had a savory waffle and my daughter had a Turkish breakfast which considered of eggs, and six little bowls with different flavorful, fresh ingredients. Everything was perfect! To top it all off, the service was wonderful. Friendly, attentive and cheerful. We'll definitely visit every time we're in Utica!!

My first experience with yummylicious is one that I will be telling everyone I know about for a very long time. This year I told my husband the only thing I wanted for Christmas was a plate of their Christmas cookies and he listened! Every cookie was beautifully crafted and tasted wonderful- no other bakery in this area offers such an amazing variety. We also tried a few different pastries as well- and they were great too. Thank you for bringing something so unique and delicious to the Utica area

Amazing brunch! The ambiance, food and the family that runs the restaurant are wonderful! Truly my new favorite brunch spot!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mersiha for my wedding, and I can't thank her enough. From the moment I first contacted her to the final bite of our wedding cake, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.

First and foremost, the wedding cake was a true work of art. It was not just a cake; it was an elegant masterpiece that took our breath away. Our guests were in awe of the cake's beauty.

The cake was not only stunning but also incredibly delicious. The flavors were rich and moist, and the layers were perfectly balanced. We had several options to choose from, and the combinations we selected were crowd-pleasers; we had three different flavors!

Beyond the cake itself, Mersiha and her family are absolute gems. From the very beginning, their warmth and genuine enthusiasm for our wedding project shone through. Their professionalism was evident in every interaction, and their exceptional communication skills made the planning process a breeze. They were always prompt in responding to our questions, and they listened carefully to our ideas and concerns, ensuring that every detail was tailored to our wishes. I highly recommend Yummilicious!

My first stop in Utica is the fabulous cafe and bakery shop. The owners are super friendly and nice. Love their food menu. I highly recommend them 10/10

I had my sons Reindeer themed birthday cake made here and it was perfect! The cake was so cute and tasted amazing. The owner is an incredible woman and you can tell she is passionate about her craft and works very hard running her family business. I won’t go anywhere else from now on. Thank you!!

Just went here for my birthday and to say the very least Yummylicious did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the food was out of this world. Everyone was so pleased with the presentation and taste of everything, I felt like I was in NYC! To top it all off, the staff made me a birthday crepe and sang to me!! Couldn’t have asked for a better breakfast and service 😊 (I’d also like to add that everything was extremely affordable).

Came to visit Utica and was trying to find a great local place, and found this amazing restaurant! Everything about this place was excellent. Offering traditional Turkish and Bosnia food, we wanted to try so many unique dishes and we loved them all. Between pairings of sweet jams, bread, meats, cheeses and yogurt- everything was perfectly combined and prepared. Highly recommend stopping in and getting some of their delicious coffee and other hot beverage offerings as well. If some of their dishes are too unique to try, their French toast platter was delicious and very filling. Next time we come through Utica, we will be stopping in again!

While stopping in Utica we checked this place out for a coffee and snack. The staff was very friendly and professional and made us feel at home. A steady stream of locals came in while we were there. The crepes were the best we have had. In fact, we returned for a second visit with our daughter when she got to town. Highly recommended!

I've been stalking this place on social and had it on my "want to visit" list on maps forever, and I'm soooo glad I finally had the chance to stop. I got a few different pastries and OH MY GOSH the 'lemon cheesecake' was probably one of thee most delicious sweets I've ever had (& let's just say I have a lot of experience eating sweets, especially cheesecakes lol), I wish I had bought every piece they had. Service was above & beyond. The owner was outside when I got there, & she was really pleasant. Her son was working inside & was super nice. & talk about atmosphere! This place is gorgeous! Veryyyyyy Instagram friendly lol. The outside is nice too, with a very cute little patio with plenty of outdoor seating. The best part is, I know they have a very full & diverse menu & offer much more than their delicious sweets, so I've got lots more to taste! Prices are great too. There's something for everyone here. But that 'lemon cheesecake'.... man......🤤🤤🤤

Was looking for a aesthetically pleasing food spot in the area and this exceeded our expectations, it is so beautifully decorated and everything was clean , the food was bomb and the people working there were so kind and welcoming we loved everything about this place ! Would definitely come back when in the area again!!

Let me start by saying it was a blessing the day i discovered this place! The atmosphere is very peaceful and inviting. You are greeted the second you walk in. The young man at the register was extremely friendly and helpful.
The food is an absolute 10/10!!! I took my friends for brunch here and the owner is extremely friendly, the food is absolutely unreal and delicious. The chicken burger, turkish breakfast, and ferraro roche crepes are the best!!
I’ve also ordered two cakes for a huge family birthday. We ordered and picked the cakes up in just a week. The owner herself was very helpful in helping me choose cake flavors and style. The best cakes that we have ever tasted!!!
The best bakery and cafe in upstate NY for food, service and cleanliness. Don’t miss out on the best spot in the U!!
