Really disappointed with this experience. One of the things Crumbl is known for is the…read morepresentation--the cute boxes and the ability to make the cookies feel like a gift. I specifically ordered this as a birthday treat and added the Happy Birthday sticker and bow because I wanted it to look special. After I ordered and paid, I was told they were out of the boxes and asked if putting it in a bag was okay. I said yes, not really thinking much of it at the time. What I was handed was a cookie in a paper bag, and the chocolate was literally melting and soaking through the bag. If you sell single cookies and offer customers the option to add birthday gift packaging, you should have appropriate packaging available--or at minimum offer another box that will safely hold the cookie. Putting a warm, chocolate-covered cookie into a paper bag that it immediately starts melting through is not an acceptable substitute.

A spell was casted on me…read more.. Taste of Spellbound is a bakery that does custom dessert orders. They've been around since 2012 and offers a variety of treats; from macarons, cupcakes, bars, pies, truffles, and cookies. There are three locations; Avon, South Windsor, and West Hartford. This one in Avon is super cute and whimsical; love the decor with the picture frames on the wall. There was a table and some chairs to enjoy your treats. I decided to get a few macarons, bars, and a cupcake. All were so good but my favorite were the macarons. They were the perfect texture, lightly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. This place is definitely a gem and I can't wait to go back!

When it comes to their desserts, calling ahead and ordering may be the way to go. I'm not a coffee…read moredrinker so I can't speak to that, and the desserts they had on hand were delicious. But there may be more options available.... Definitely worth a pop-in to get something small and taste the deliciousness. Regardless, the interior is beautiful decorated. It feels like a modern tea room with some availability to sit. The walls are a beautiful calm blue. They have some cold drinks, and the cups cakes - very moist, definitely have standing life in them. The employee was very kind and friendly, and the shop seems smoothly run. The shop seems to be in two plazas, and have designated parking on either side next to the building. Watch carefully for the signs, because the plaza is a little nondescript from the road.

She was explaining how we had to fill out a form to order our cupcakes/cannolis, & cand. It was smooth and efficient! If you order online in advance you get an extra 10% off. I took my cupcakes made it all the way back to Long Island. My Oreo canoli lasted 1 hr before I ate it!! It seemed like a wonderful place to have a cupcake party or simply sit down to enjoy some sweets! This is going to be my "must go to spot" next time I visit up there in CT!

But, after some calls and texts with the owner, all was resolved! The owner was lovely, apologetic and so kind about the mistake. We really appreciated her excellent customer service efforts! Everyone should remember that small businesses are not perfect but the reason to support them is because they can give you the personal attention you may not get at large national chains! Plus, the cupcakes are spectacular! I had the Dubai chocolate one and it was chocolatey with the elements of Dubai chocolate. Would love to try more!

I wanted a small cake for my car/truck obsessed son's second birthday. I put in a quote request with Bella, and within hours she had several mock up designs with multiple scenes. We went back and forth with the options. Bella was extremely accommodating and helpful in making decisions for our cake. Since it was just going to be five of us, the owner, she suggested we go with a 4" square cake. In speaking with her, it became clear her passion for making her customers happy. She was excited about "playing with candy rocks" and came up with all sorts of creative ideas. When I picked up the cake, Bella greeted me outside with a mask and kept her distance. I felt very safe picking up. She was super friendly and kind! It was so obvious how much she took pride in her work. And then later that night- we revealed the cake. It was obvious why she took so much pride in it! It was literally the most gorgeous cake I've ever seen in my life. See pictures attached. Every side of the cake had a realistic scene. When we brought it out to my son, his face completely lit up!!! The look on his face was worth every. Single. Dollar. We showed him each side of the cake and he legitimately squealed, with his excitement growing more and more with each side. This cake was so beautiful that it pained me to cut into it. However, we just had to taste it. Boy, was it worth cutting into! The chocolate cake was moist, delicious, and not sickeningly sweet like many cakes can be. My parents, who are the pickiest people when it comes to desserts, even commented on how perfectly done it was. We ended up getting about 8 servings out of the 4" cake because it was pretty tall. This cake, without a doubt, made my son's birthday. A delicious cake that also is a piece of art? How can you go wrong? Highly recommend!!!

We love blue house. Always the best bagels, coffee and service! Our favorite spot in town by far.read more

Back in the '70's, the only bagels you could get around here were Lenders frozen bagels from the…read moresupermarket. My Mom loved bagels but those were NOT what I considered bagels! I lived in the Bronx at that time and on the main shopping street near me was a bagel bakery-you walked in and saw the vats where they boiled them and then put them on a conveyor to bake. I started bringing home bagels for her and soon my whole family started asking me to bring some for them - next thing you know, I was bringing 12 - 13 dozen bagels whenever I drove home (I have a big family)! The bagel bakery began giving me a discount for such huge orders. The only kind I refused to bring were garlic - my car (and I) would smell like garlic long after I arrived. As wonderful as those bagels were, Blue House makes the best bagels I've ever had. And the whole Vibe there is so welcoming -always friendly and helpful staff, so many great products, and a lovely area to sit and enjoy my chai and bagel. My only "complaint" is not being able to buy their fresh bagels on Monday or Tuesday!

When you enter the store you are instantly hit with the satisfying smell of baked goods and fresh bread so heavenly!

As many bakery's in the area have at least 3-4 different options I only saw the one for this trip so my friends were limited on what they could have from the menu. The turkey bacon sandwich was layered with flavor and the bacon was a nice thick slice. The aioli complimented the turkey and cut back on the harshness of the arugula. The focaccia itself was tasty. The bread was airy, chewy, and perfectly golden brown. I did enjoy the latte I got because of how bold the coffee was. The beans were roasted perfectly and made the drink itself very smooth and robust. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Everyone seemed very pleasant and the environment itself was very cool. I would definitely come here more often with friends and I would love to see more gluten-free options on the bakery layout

It feels odd to feel so positively about a Shop Rite, a lower cost supermarket, but this is the…read morebest one to which I've been. It's clean, spacious, has a robotic inventory machine, seems to be organized well, and staff seemed to enjoy their jobs. There is a small flower and plant section, bakery, deli, along with the usual pantry items. Perhaps it's because we went first thing on a weekend but I liked it! And I would rather purchase meat and seafood here than at a Stop and Shop. Sign up for the loyalty card and get those digital coupons. There are also the usual self checkout lanes, with the regular staffed lines. It's also located in a convenient complex with quite a few retail shops and a Panera. Most likely as the throngs of shoppers descend, the experience will degrade accordingly.

They also own Price Rite, which was a very affordable grocery store I used to go to in Rhode Island. This place reminded me of Publix in Florida. There were plenty of cash registers open and I love the self checkouts. The store was large and clean. The bakery section had baked fresh items. I loved the prepared foods section; the smell made me salivate. Pro tip: don't go there hungry. They had rotisserie chicken, prepared sides, sushi, and fresh produce. If you want to preorder a cake, download their app and schedule a pickup. I think the prices were comparable to other standard grocery stores nearby. Overall, a good market to get all your grocery shopping needs.
