I'm really disappointed in my last 2 visits, the donuts have been so dry they are awful! We ordered…read more2 sugar and a frosted cinnamon roll thing and they are so dry and just are no longer the fresh quality donuts we used to get here. They actually taste like they've been there for two days so not even daily donuts, but two donuts. I don't like Dunkin' Donuts at all and I think I might have to go. Try a donut there to compare because they've got to be better than these. This used to be the best donut shop around. I don't know what happened. It's heartbreaking. I do have to say they always greet you with a warm, friendly smile the rooster crows when the door opens and that always warms my heart but the donuts are just no good anymore

We were visiting Galena from Chicago for our son's third birthday. I did a Yelp search for bakeries…read morenearby and came across Triple Tier Bakery. She was so accommodating and easy to work with. She made an amazing Spider-man cake in 2 days notice and it was delicious! Definitely worth the 25 minute drive from Galena. Wish she was closer to Chicago - I would be a regular customer.

Triple Tier Bakery did an outstanding job making the wedding cake and cupcakes for my son and…read moredaughter-in-law's Dubuque wedding. She provided excellent guidance in making decisions on the choices. We provided a photo of what we were looking for and the results surpassed our expectations. Tiffany set up the cake and cupcakes in such a beautiful manner, with special touches. Three key points in working with Triple Tier: 1. Through our interactions, her questions, and how accommodating Tiffany was, the care and attention she provided made it clear she really wanted to do her part to make sure the event was wonderful. We live three hours away and were able to take care of all the details through phone/email/text. 2. As stated the end product was beautiful and exceeded expectations. We ordered vanilla, chocolate, and carrot cake cupcakes. There was a light dusting of cinnamon on the carrot cake frosting making it easy to tell them apart. The attention to detail was wonderful. 3. The actual taste of the cake and cupcakes was amazing. The flavor of each was distinct and delicious. The frosting was perfect, not too sweet. I have no idea how she did it, but the bride and groom wanted a marble cake and it was marbled. It looked like marble, not like traditional bakery marble cake. After tasting the cake, they both remarked "Ok that is a really good cake!" I highly recommend Triple Tier - We have a favorite bakery where we live and the Triple Tier cake and cupcakes surpassed the deliciousness of our local expert.

Got some pretty great coffee and okay breakfast in Freeport. It doesn't have a lot of options but…read morethis is one. 9 East Coffee is a lot like any typical small town coffee shop. Has a simple menu and a quiet atmosphere. The prices are pretty okay really. Coming in here in the morning it wasn't as crowded. It's got a few tables in the front and a few more in another room. The menu is pretty basic and there's not a whole lot of fancy stuff. A few lattes if wanting more than regular coffee. It's about $5 to get a latte. A few to choose from. I got the Lo Fi Vanilla Lavender Latte. Creamy and filling. They have plant based milks including oat. It's about $2 for a bagel. They have a few spreads including peanut butter, which goes great on a plain. Has a simple amount of things to choose from. It's closed Sundays. This is the best place for breakfast around here, because otherwise it's just fast food, greasy stuff, or whatever.
