FAQs

How do I place an order?

All orders can be placed directly through our online shop. Simply choose your items, select your pickup or delivery option, and check out.

Can I pay with cash?

During checkout, select “Alternative Payments” to choose the cash option. If you’d prefer, you can also email us at info@sideyardbakery.com and we’ll take your order directly.

A few quick notes:

  • Cash must be paid in full at pickup or delivery

  • Exact change is appreciated

  • Orders are not confirmed until payment arrangements are made

Can I pay with Venmo? How does that work?

During checkout, select “Alternative Payments” to choose the Venmo option.

Unlike the credit card option, Venmo is not fully integrated with this website, after you submit the order, I will send you a link or QR Code to complete the Venmo transaction.

Due to an uptick in scams, All Venmo payments are non‑refundable. Please review your order carefully before submitting payment.

Do you offer delivery?

Yes — we proudly deliver throughout the Grand Rapids area. Delivery fees are based on distance to keep pricing fair and transparent.

I’m outside your service area but really want your products — do you ship?

Under Michigan Cottage Food Law, we’re not allowed to ship our products. All orders must be handed off in person.

However, please feel free to reach out to info@sideyardbakery.com. Depending on your order, we may be able to accommodate you as long as you’re located in West Michigan. One possible solution could be a curbside delivery at a half-way point.

Do you offer curbside delivery?

We do. For areas with limited parking — including downtown — we offer curbside delivery. Note your location at checkout, and we’ll coordinate a smooth, convenient handoff.

Where do I pick up my order?

Pickup details are provided after checkout. You’ll receive a confirmation email with the exact address and instructions.

How far in advance should I order?

We bake in small batches, so ordering early helps ensure availability — especially for specialty loaves and weekend pickups.

Do you take custom or bulk orders?

Yes. For bulk pricing or custom requests, please reach out to info@sideyardbakery.com and we’ll be happy to help.

Do you offer gluten‑free items?

We do, but we don’t have a dedicated gluten‑free kitchen. We do our best to accommodate dietary preferences, but we cannot guarantee that any item will be completely free from gluten.

What if I need to change or cancel my order?

Email us as soon as possible. We’ll do our best to accommodate changes, depending on where we are in the baking process.

What is your refund & Cancellation policy?

All items are made to order with care. If you need to adjust or cancel your order, you may receive up to a full refund when the request is made at least 7 days before your scheduled pickup or delivery, depending on any ingredients or materials already sourced for your order. All Venmo payments are final and not eligible for refunds.

Cancellations made within 7 days of fulfillment are not eligible for a refund. However, we’re happy to offer a credit toward a future order, as we understand that unexpected situations can come up.

What is your nearest intersection or landmark?

We are located in Southeast Grand Rapids near Plymouth and Burton and within walking distance to the Grand Rapids Christian High School.
