β€œI think it may be just my personal preference, but these cookies were not my favorites. The rainbow cookie was okay, not the worst, but not anything special. The chocolate chip cookie was too sweet for me and definitely underbaked. Not sure if it was just this batch, but it was almost inedible bc of how underbaked it was. I shared this cookie with others and they all agreed. The blueberry and apple pie cookie saved this place for me. A balanced and chewy cookie. Pretty nice, but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way for it. Service was efficient.”

β€œA hidden gem!! Very FRESH, high quality baked goods and coffee. The macaron (half shown as I couldn't wait to take a bite) was delicious and the texture was amazing. Same with the scone -I tried a blueberry peach scone. Great combo and very friendly staff! Looking forward to going back.”

β€œFirst of all, great customer service. I had a surgery recently and have had a hard time opening doors for myself bc I'm not supposed to lift anything heavy for a few weeks. When I stopped by, I was unsure of what to do because the door was closed and too heavy for me. I walked around the block before deciding to call and ask if they could open the door for me while I am in there. The woman of the phone was very nice and came and opened the door for me when I got there and when I left. I understand it's a kind of awkward and strange request, but I appreciate their help since I've been very limited in what I have been able to do physically. I imagine that they would also be kind and helpful for people who are more than just temporarily disabled, which is unfortunately not always easy to encounter! Now on to the desserts. I ordered the lemon bar cookie and half a dozen macarons. They were all delicious !!!!! I LOVEEEE LEMON BARS. lol. And to have it in cookie form is very dangerous. Very addictive. I did not want to put the cookie down. And it was the perfect lemon flavor. Very gooey and tangy in the middle. The best part was that she had just finished making the batch and the cookies were so fresh!! I also LOVE macarons and was excited to try out their flavors. I haven't finished my half dozen yet, but so far, I have loved the churro (my favorite), orange, and plum flavors. Sadly, when I arrived, she had just finished making the mango creme brulee for the next day. I was totally bummed that I couldn't try it out! I am already looking forward to coming back again!! -”
