About Us

Here at The Ragamuffin, we’re all about spreading warmth and building connection through delicious treats and beverages.

We’d love to welcome you inside for an oversized cinnamon roll or toasty warm masala chai. More than just making wholesome treats, we want to get to know our neighbors and be a place where our community comes together.

In our goodies, you’ll find ingredients from local farmers and suppliers around Michiana:

Hey, there!

My name is Abby and I’m the owner of The Ragamuffin. My ultimate dream with opening The Ragamuffin was to build community. As an actor living and working in major cities in the US, it was difficult for me to find community and build deep roots. I decided it was time for something new, so I moved to South Bend and made plans to start The Ragamuffin.

Many of our recipes at the bakery have evolved from my grandmother’s kitchen, where she and I would spend hours baking and experimenting together. I’m excited to share these treasured family recipes with you!
