Rollys is described as a small, busy spot that serves large, soft cinnamon buns with a creative lineup including classic, raspberry pistachio, Biscoff, Nutella, pear, orange and tiramisu, with many reviewers praising freshness, warmth and bold flavors, while some batches come out dry or undercooked and the original cream cheese icing can be overpowering. The experience is punctuated by long lines, limited seating and occasional delays, and utensils are sometimes missing, though staff are generally nice. Overall the buns are considered tasty and substantial and often worth the price, especially when warmed, making Rollys a noteworthy destination for cinnamon bun lovers despite the bustle and a few misfires.
You wait in line to discover that your favorite flavor is finished & no refill
& by the way i came the next day because it is tasty but not a reason to humilate clients by having only one person to fill the cakes & take money .
It is a shame.
Always editing . I have been coming for 3 days & waiting outside in the cold .
& never had the flavor i want , they always sell you the remaining flavors.
To the owner : get a bigger staff & get a bigger production oven & stick flavors that sells more .
Or close your shop if you cant handle that success
Long line for waiting outside staff is very nice but very slow not sure is it a lack of training or tolls to be able to cut the rolls quicker. No utensils available at all. Good experience the rolls are huge
Not worth the hype tbh. Super pricey, same cream cheese frosting on all of them, doesn't serve costumers in order so your favorite flavor might disappear right under your eyes after waiting in line for long. Also doesn't respect the closing & opening hours or even days displayed on their shop.
But in response to the owner : Oh honey you want me to write with 3 different accounts? I definitely will. Instead of accusing me of writing 3 times, maybe you should reconsider how you run your shop & serve the right costumers in order. The other review was only my husband. The rest has nothing to do with me. What a gaslighter!
I waited in line for a super long time to have exactly the biscoff one, there were 2 left when i entered which i was super excited about when it was finally my turn to order. But the staff decided to serve the people behind me who took the same thing because they knew them personally, it was completely unfair, i ended up getting nothing but im putting at least one star because it looks good & they sell biscoff ones lol.

Omg 3 days in a row of diarrhea after eating these rolls, my daughter & I were sick, I tried to tell them trough the phone, no one answered ! Be careful we ended up dead sick for 2 pieces of cake.
Les cinnamon rolls sont délicieux! Il est mieux d'y aller le matin pour avoir plusieurs choix disponibles. Nous étions aller la première fois un samedi vers 18:15, & il y avait une fils jusqu'à dehors & restait seulement des classiques (très délicieux, 2 classiques à couter 14$ env.) Nous y sommes retourner le lendemain matin 11:45am & il y avait peut être 10min d'attente mais tous les choix étaient disponible. Nous avons pris nutella, poire, framboise/pistache & noisettes & c'était très bon. Les cinnamon roll sont assez gros donc il est difficile d'avoir encore de la place après 1. Je trouve que ça vaut le prix. La seule chose est que le magasin est assez petit & peu de place pour bien s'asseoir confortablement. Le personnel était très gentil, j'ai été servi par Ray:))

This is the Best cinnamon bun I've ever had. Bun is soft, moist, buttery with crispy carmelized bottom, perfect amount of cream cheese icing, not overly sweet.
Food is good, but service is terrible. Waited 45 mins just to get some cinnamon rolls. 2 people were working & it's like they were purposely moving in slow motion.

The reviews you read are accurate, I went on a Wednesday at 130pm , the place is small, so line up happens fast. There was about 8 people in front of me & the line was going out the door as it fits about 10 people inside. The 2 employees serving the cinnamon buns had 0 urgency, they were serving people like you were the only one in the store, & no that's not a good thing. They had no hustle, no rush, no quick skills to get the line moving. They either need to have a 3rd employee serving or train there employees to add some urgency when there's a line. When I finally got served after about 30 minutes of waiting, the line was now onto the sidewalk around the building.
As for the cinnamon buns: the original is delicious, the flavored ones are so-so, we got strawberry, pistachio & lemon, the lemon was my favorite of the 3 flavors. The original is great but the cream cheese icing is a little over powering, if they made a classic cinnamon glaze without cream cheese it would probably be a 10/10!
We went as a special treat for a birthday & live 50 minutes away so it isnt something we would go to often if ever again. But its good to try if youre in the area. If they improve the service it would also be alot better!
Arrived at 12:30 pm on a weekend to find a line already out the door. After watching the'operation' behind the counter, it all made sense.
They had three people working: two of them were teaming up on a single roll like it was a complex surgical procedure, while the third seemed to be playing a fun game of'Guess Who's Next in Line?' Spoiler alert: nobody knew.
If you enjoy watching efficiency die a slow death, you'll love the wait. Perhaps there wouldn't be a line if the service moved faster than a tectonic plate.
As for the rolls? A hefty $16 for two, so be prepared to take out a small loan for your snack. But I have to be honest-they are delicious. Soft, chewy, sweet, & pure decadence.
It's the kind of taste that almost makes you forget your hunt for parking & another thirty mins watching the slowest tag-team in bakery history.
Come for the rolls, stay because you literally have no choice-you'll be in line for a while
I took the tiramissu one, but it tasted more cinnamon than a Italian classic. I was disappointed as I thought getting mascarpone flavor & coffee for a tiramissu flavor.
