This Old-Time General Store Is Home To The Best Bakery In Missouri
Once upon a time, a visit to just about any small town or city in Missouri meant seeing – and stopping by – at least one general store. General stores were the place to go for whatever we needed, from groceries to last-minute gifts. Today, the number of general stores has slowly dwindled, making those that remain even more of a treasure. A trip to this general store, home to a bakery in Missouri, is a must any time you’re in Macon.
A visit to Koch's General Store in Macon offers a glimpse into the old-school general stores of yesteryear and a taste of some of the best baked goods in Missouri.
If you're visiting during the warmer months, explore the outdoor area that often features a colorful array of potted flowers, perfect for adding a splash of color to your home.
However, you'll likely find yourself gravitating toward the bakery. Cupcakes, cinnamon rolls, and pies are just a few of the goodies you'll find. Which will you try?
Visitors offer glowing reviews of the bakery (and the general store) for everything from staff friendliness to the freshness and taste of the baked goodies. Be sure to try the breads and muffins, too.
All that deliciousness probably has your stomach growling in anticipation. Grab a bite to eat from the deli, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Please note that the old-time Missouri general store closes annually for Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks. Check the website for exact dates before heading over during those times.
