Service was top notch with friendly folks greeting you the moment you enter the doors. Our bartender was so sweet and so welcoming. Had me a $10 Paloma cocktail that was just right and went to town on dessert. Everything was just delicious. Fresh made whip cream, perfectly balanced sweetness with the desserts and cute atmosphere. Loved my first time here and it won't be my last!

Bittersweet has amazing desserts and drinks. I've been several times and each time I enjoy what…read moreI've had. A solid go-to is their s'mores sundae which is sooo good! The chocolate brownie is thick and rich, but not too sweet, and the marshmallow cream is divine, especially with the ice cream. A lot of their drinks and gin based, which I'm not the biggest fan of, but I always find something I can enjoy. The service is great and relatively quick, and everyone I've met there is kind and willing to help. The inside is a bit small, so smaller crowds are better and it does tend to get crowded later in the evening and on weekends. The outside street sitting area is nice too and hopefully will be fully fixed soon. Overall a great places to stop for drinks and desserts after a nice meal! And the menu rotates seasonally so you'll always have the chance to try something new!

I spoke with Barbara, who I believe is Nana & the owner. She was so friendly and it was easy to place the order. I called about a week prior to do so. She even was able to provide a few recommendations. As promised, the cakes were ready when she said they'd be, and they were beautiful, adorable, and delicious! Flavorful, fresh, and moist as a cake should be. We did a 4" and 8" and it was perfect for the amount of people. It was about $80 for both cakes, and completely worth it. I will definitely use Nana's to order cakes again, or even just to pick up a sweet treat or fresh speciality bread as I have in the past!

My friend picked up some desserts here the other day. We tried the cookie butter pudding (i think…read morethat's what it's called- it was amazing!), the cinnamon roll cake- it was ok but not the start of the show, and the peach poundcake which was fresh, not overly sweet, light. My picks in order were the biscoff cookie butter pudding, peach poundcake and finally the cinnamon roll cake. Prices are a bit high in my opinion but for a treat once in a while, very much worth it and enjoy supporting local, black owned, small businesses.

We had a variety of flavors, including chocolate, red velvet, vanilla, and lemon, and every single one was delicious. The cupcakes were unbelievably moist, and the frosting was so light, creamy, and flavorful. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. They disappeared so quickly that I didn't even get a chance to take any pictures! After trying the cupcakes, I checked out their social media and saw they offer a wonderful variety of desserts. I also learned that their cakes are made by pre-order, and after tasting these cupcakes, I'll definitely be keeping them in mind for future birthdays and celebrations. If their cupcakes are any indication of the quality of their cakes and other desserts, I know they'll be amazing. Highly recommend!

I would get it again for sure. My friend got orange sorbet and loved it. The place was clean, the young lady was friendly and we enjoyed talking with her. I will return here!

I ordered the chicken biscuit and wow, it was phenomenal! Would have added the hot honey but was afraid of making a mess. My partner had the breakfast mugwich which he thoroughly enjoyed. Iced coffee and Chai rounded out our meal. Would definitely stop here again!

I went to Hayes Barton Cafe' & Dessertery for the first and last time on Friday, when I took…read morevisiting family there for lunch. First, since they are located in a congested area, finding on street parking is a bit of a challenge. Also, be aware that they have a "cash" policy during lunch hours which isn't indicated on their website. I was unaware of this policy until we saw the sign on the front door upon our arrival. When you first walk into their establishment, they have prominently displayed a sign to be sure to tip their staff. A bit unprofessional in my opinion! In addition, they have a large tip jar on the counter where you place your order, I guess in case you missed their other tipping sign! We placed an order for 3 burgers with fries and 3 iced teas which came to almost $62. The food was fine but nothing exceptional for the price! Due to the lettuce and other produce issues currently going on, I requested no lettuce or tomato but instead to add pickles. When the burger arrived to the table it literally had 1 small pickle chip sitting in the center of the burger! Is there a pickle shortage I am not aware of? My two family members had also asked to have the lettuce and tomato removed yet one of their burgers still came with both of those ingredients on the burger! On a positive note, the music they played was enjoyable and the photos displayed on the wall were a nice touch. Finally, one of the employees came to our table to ask us to leave so they could mop the floor! I was unaware they closed at 2:00, which was my error in not paying attention to the lunch hours on the website. However, I think they could have been more professional in letting us know their lunch hours were ending! We arrived shortly after 1:00 p.m. and mentioned to the guy taking our order that it was our first time there. It would have been a great customer service courtesy if he had mentioned they would be closing at 2:00 so we had the heads up to pay attention to the time, or we could have decided to go elsewhere so we weren't on a time limit. I don't plan to return for the above mentioned reasons and won't personally recommend them to my family or friends. However, if you choose to go, I hope your experience is more positive and that my review will help to eliminate the negative experiences I had during my one and only visit to Hayes Barton Cafe' & Dessertery!
