Love this place great for lunch or a snack. If you need a birthday cake or wedding cake this is the place.

When it comes to dessert there's nothing worst than stale cake. I purchased a carrot cake on 07/16/19 form Pollman's on Old Shell Rd, and it was like eating five day old Jiffy cornbread with icing on top.

This is the most pathetic excuse for a business I have ever seen. A majority of the employees are absolutely useless and don’t even get me started on the owner/decorator/manager. She is incredibly unprofessional. The only reason this place is still open is because it accepts food stamps. I had an awful experience with a $70 cake I ordered for my sons birthday party. I placed the order at the old shell location, it was made at the midtown location and transported (by Pollman’s) back to the old shell location for me to pick up. While I was ordering the cake I overheard an upset customer. She was there to pick up a cake she had preordered and they just completely forgot her cake. They weren’t apologetic and still made her pay full price for a display cake. I should’ve walked out then. Fast forward to Friday at 12.. my mom went to get the cake for me, the employee showed her the cake and said “it’s kind of messed up.” My mom then brought the cake to me that had finger prints and smudges all over it. When I called to ask why I just spent $70 on a cake with fingerprints they then said I can make the 30 minute drive back to them so they can fix it (even though they clearly seen the mistake before it was handed over) or I could bring the cake back and get my money back.... this was a hour before the party. I said no and I wanted to speak to the owner who was the one who suggested I bring it back but suddenly she had left. They said the owner would call me back when she returned later that afternoon.. well it’s Sunday and no word back. I’m furious and so upset. I will make sure I tell EVERYONE about my experience.

Now, granted, I have not tried every bakery on the Alabama coast… yet… but I'm still fairly confident in saying you won't find a better, more traditional white icing with vanilla birthday cake anywhere else. It's really good, and reminds me of the ones I got as a child from Marsh Bake Shop in Birmingham (RIP). They also have cookies (eh) and sandwiches (just OK) but let's face it, the real star are the cakes and they do those so well it's easy to forgive the other items' less than spectacular showings.

Who doesn't love Pollmans, if you don't then you have never had a Pollmans butter biscuit. They complete any Thanksgiving or Christmas meal. Cakes are awesome. My work only has their cakes at any special occasion. Support local businesses!!!!!
