Every weekend we try to hit up a new local coffee shop, and on this morning we happened to be fishing at Glade Run when I found Freya Jane's nearby. This bakery is located in what appears to be a small development of townhomes with a handful of storefronts. The inside has a large ordering area with plenty of baked goods displayed behind glass, along with an equally spacious seating area. They also had a number of card games available, and my wife and I enjoyed playing one with our 4.5-year-old twins. On this morning I decided to go with an iced brown sugar cinnamon latte while my wife chose an iced pistachio latte. My daughter picked out a sprinkle sugar cookie, my son chose a blueberry Pop-Tart, and my wife and I split a crème brûlée-filled croissant. I'll start with the baked goods, which were excellent. The croissant was buttery and flaky, and you could clearly see the lamination throughout it. The filling reminded me of a cream puff with its rich, creamy texture and flavor. To complete the crème brûlée theme, it had large pieces of caramelized sugar on top that added a satisfying crunch and really made the pastry live up to its name. My son's blueberry Pop-Tart also had a great flavor with plenty of blueberry filling inside, and my daughter loved her sprinkle sugar cookie. As far as the baked goods were concerned, they were easily five stars. The coffee was good, although it didn't quite reach the same level as the pastries. My latte had a nice balance between the brown sugar and cinnamon syrup and the espresso. Thankfully the coffee wasn't overpowered by the flavoring, and while it was certainly enjoyable, it wasn't quite as memorable as the baked goods. My wife also enjoyed her latte, especially the pistachio flavor. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My family loved the baked goods, and we all thought the coffee was good as well.

Said it was rich, light, and airy. BUT, the gluten free roll was incredible. I didn't feel the I was shortchanged at all. We prefer a more robust coffee roast, but the coffee was nicely hot and not a deterrent to our return. Be advised, seats were at a premium; the place was packed and we could understand why. There were lots of sweet things to pick from and they had some gfree items too. Everything was wonderful.

The menu lists breakfast foods (e.g., pancakes, toasts, and sandwiches) and lunch foods (e.g., salads, sandwiches, and bowls). Baked goods, coffees, teas, and refreshers are also available. Customers may dine in, get takeout, order catering for outside events, or rent the greenhouse for special events. My husband and I ate one breakfast here. We placed our order at a counter, paid upfront, and then were given our drink and a number to take to a table of our choosing. The weather on that day was very rainy, so we sat inside the greenhouse rather than outside, and the employees carried our foods over in containers with lids. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Peach Berry Stuffed French Toast - 4.5 stars - This was a weekend special. Challah French toast was stuffed with lemon mascarpone, peaches, and mixed-berry compote. It had a large serving size and a nice mixture of sweet and sour flavors. Bloom Salad - 4.5 stars - This salad contained mixed greens, sliced apple, dried cherries, candied pecans, gorgonzola, red onion, and maple balsamic dressing. Blue cheese is not my favorite, but I enjoyed the freshness and flavors of the other ingredients. Breakfast Egg Sandwich Croissant - 4.5 stars - This sandwich consisted of a croissant filled with two eggs, cheese, and three strips of crispy bacon. On the side was a basic salad with dressing. My husband did not like how the salad dressing got on his sandwich. Chai Latte - 4.5 stars - This Rishi Masala chai concentrate with steamed milk tasted very good. The total price for these three foods and one drink was $49 plus a tip. Afterward, we explored the market and gardening center. Available for purchase were jewelry, flower pots, many types of indoor and outdoor plants, and much more. Two employees kindly offered me assistance with the plants. I loved seeing the exterior of a hobbit house, although it was too short for me to go inside. Please note that this business will hold a Tolkien-inspired Hobbit Fest on September 12, 2026. The festival will include live folk music, local artisan vendors, themed cafe foods, alcohol vendors, activities such as a costume contest, etcetera.

The ingredients were fresh, the aioli sauce and feta cheese paired well with the picked onion and roasted tomato.

I ordered some coffee crumb cake too - nothing special but it was decent (needed more spice). Hope I can make it back to breakfast one of these days!

According to a newspaper article that I read, its buildings were built in the 1800s and were the former J.J. Dittmer Mercantile and the Dittmer home. My husband and I were customers here one time. The architecture of the buildings reminded me of the Alaskan frontier or the Wild West! The restaurant's menu listed foods such as burritos, grilled cheese, and a rice and bean bowl and drinks such as coffees and Italian sodas. An employee promptly took our order and payment. Both indoor and outdoor seating were available. We saw many bicyclists stopping by for a break. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Pizzadilla - 4 stars - In between two flour tortillas were mozzarella cheese, sauce, and pepperoni. Simple but good. Green Chili Chicken Tamale - 3 stars - My husband ordered this tamale, and he took only one or two bites. He described it as "flavorless." He does have Mexican ancestry, and we have eaten authentic foods in several Mexican cities. I thought that this tamale tasted alright. Peach-Pineapple Fruit Smoothie - 4 stars - This smoothie needed a more intense flavor of peach and pineapple, but it did taste good. The total price for these three menu items plus one soda was $26 plus sales tax, a credit-card surcharge, and a tip.
