My favorite coffee house in Frankenmuth! Great coffee!…read more I love all the places you can sit down, settle in, and stay a while. Whether you're warming up from the winter cold or cooling down from a hot summer day, this is a great place to hangout and refresh until you're ready to head back out.

I really want to love this place because it IS a cute little coffee shop with a lot of potential…read more The vibe is cozy at first glance, but once you settle in, you start noticing some things that could definitely use improvement... shaky tables, sparse seating, and a general "almost there" feeling with the interior. The bigger issue for me is the pricing and consistency. Charging an extra $1 for alternative milk in 2026 feels a little like cash grab? Especially when a lot of people order it out of necessity, not preference. On top of that, the specialty lattes have gone up another dollar in the past year, which makes the quality even more important. I've had good drinks here before, so I know they CAN do it well but this last visit was rough. My $6.50 "specialty" latte tasted like burnt coffee water with none of the flavor I ordered. For that 20% increase in price, I expect to actually taste the specialty part. That said, the employees were genuinely kind and super helpful. They happily added more almond milk to help salvage my very sad latte, and I appreciated their attitude a lot. Overall it's a cute spot with sweet staff, but the pricing and drink consistency need some serious attention. I'd love to see them tighten things up because it really could be great.

On a cold December night when we were walking around town it was bliss. We got a dozen to split/take home and when we got our order the bag was piping hot so I was forced to wait a minute which was VERY difficult. Ha. But they were worth the wait. We scarfed down a few right away and saved the rest for later. They actually warmed up really well the next day and were perfect with coffee on the couch on my first Sunday morning of holiday vacation. We also got chocolate, caramel, and cinnamon dipping sauces but honestly I liked them best plain. The cinnamon was my favorite of the three, though. The line was relatively long the Saturday night before Christmas but they had it down and it moved quickly. Both for ordering and getting our food. They also serve up hot cocoa, coffee, gator bites (yes, actual gator), and gumbo if your'e feeling peckish and/or adventurous. But we stuck with dessert and couldn't have been happier.

This time we had friends with us, so we grabbed a dozen, which came in a great deal. We also got multiple dipping sauces - Chocolate, Caramel and strawberry.

They even added extra powdered sugar in the package, which honestly was almost too much to handle... but sometimes you just have to get a little messy and enjoy it.

Despite our substantial lunches, we were still tempted by the baked offerings at Zehnder's Bakery…read more The selection is huge, so we first lapped the store before making any final selections. We were greeted with different loaves of bread, sliced and bagged; I had eyes only for Stollen bread. Other baked goods, seasonings, jams, salad dressings, and more were there. My friend and I both ended up at the bakery case, where we picked out some treats. I ended up with cherry and apple fritters and a pineapple hand pie. The fritters were okay; I had one at the end of the day and thought it was a bit stale. The pastry for the hand pie was a bit more like shortbread than pie dough so not to my taste. However, the staff at the bakery counter were friendly and helpful. The place was buzzing but they worked quickly to accommodate all of us, even the undecided.

One of our favourite things is that you can grab any brick and have the staff slice off a smaller portion if you don't want the whole thing. Super convenient, and the team is always friendly and happy to help. It was tough to choose, but we ended up taking home the Mont Buffalo Wing Cheese, Maple Syrup Cheese, and the Smoked Butter. All amazing. We also grabbed some Wisconsin cheese curds, which were tasty, though we do wish they had that squeaky bite we love. Would've also loved some free samples (or maybe they were there and we just didn't see them!). Highly recommend checking this shop out.

I ordered the yummiest blueberry boba milk tea here. The first sip was a little bit of a shock to…read moremy system, but after that it was like a drug and I could not stop drinking it. The only criticism I have for this location is that they only offer one size drink, and it's not nearly big enough. Please offer multiple sizes! We were told it was a 45-minute wait for pastys and we just couldn't wait that long, so maybe also having the hot food ready would be a good idea. Still, the milk, tea and boba was amazing and I meant to come back by on our way out and try some more flavors but I got distracted. I would definitely return here and recommend you try one of their many great flavors of boba drinks.

Although it was super busy when we arrived, we were able to place our order quickly and our tea came out in a timely matter. Really enjoyed the ambiance and the wide variety of boba flavors. I ordered the milk tea boba and it was pretty decent, however, the bobas were super attached to each other and it was definitely difficult to drink them through the straw. The tea was also a bit too watery for my taste, but I plan to try different flavors next time I'm in the area!

First I want to say I never physically have ever ordered from a TH or been to a store. The lady…read morelooked at me and stood at the register and didn't say anything, she looked very unhappy and didn't speak the whole time I was in there. I looked at the menu to decide what I wanted. And I had your tidbits. I told her I wanted 20 and paid and after I told her what I would like. Again never once did she say anything at all. I thought it was weird how she was doing it but didn't think anything of it. I left and before I got to my car something told me to check. And sure enough it was all different kinds. I went back in and another girl spoke to me and told me that you have to pick what you want before you pay. So as a new customer how would anyone know this 1 if there are no signs up stating this and 2 no one is friendly and says anything about it when clearly I didn't know what I was doing specially when I was giving her my order as she was putting what she wanted in there? This clearly has made me rethink about where I buy my donuts and coffee from! This store definitely needs better customer service!! There is a Dunkin' Donuts in the next town over in Birch Run!!

Prost was such a fun Valentine's Day spot for us! It was our first time in, and overall we had a…read morereally great experience. Our server, Tanner, was genuinely kind and welcoming, which made a big difference. The table was set nicely when we arrived -- wine glass and water glass, silverware wrapped with cloth napkins on a side plate, and a candle lit off to the side. It felt thoughtful and perfect for a date night. We split the French Onion Soup to start, and it was delicious. Maybe a little pricey at $12, but it came with lots of cheese and bread (plus bread on the side), so it felt worth it as a starter. My boyfriend ordered a Long Island Iced Tea -- strong, but no complaints there -- and I got cranberry juice. Both drinks came out in the same glassware as the water, styled like cocktails, which I actually appreciated. No weird "different treatment" if you're not drinking alcohol, which is always a plus to me. We also did the Build-Your-Own Board, which was really fun, and Tanner was super helpful in guiding us through the choices. We picked Summer Sausage, Garlic & Herb Soft Cheese, Smoked Gouda, Fire Roasted Tomatoes, and Balsamic Onion Jam. The Fire Roasted Tomatoes were SO GOOD, and I usually don't even like tomatoes. They were soaking in olive oil (I think?), which had great flavor and paired perfectly with the bread and Garlic & Herb Cheese. I also really enjoyed the Balsamic Onion Jam, savory, slightly sweet, and a little goes a long way. Overall, everything tasted great. I was a little disappointed in the portion of Smoked Gouda compared to the soft cheese, especially considering some soft cheeses can retail around $30 per pound. If you're looking for the best value, you might consider a different cheese option. That said, extra bread was only $1, which felt like a great deal for the amount we received. We were honestly getting pretty full and almost couldn't finish it all. We were seated in the cellar area, which was okay, just a little small, and the music was pretty loud. Not ideal for a Valentine's date when you're trying to have a conversation. Random but important: the bathrooms were spectacular. Individual, spacious, very clean, nice sink setup, pump soap, automatic paper towel dispenser, and even a candle lit. Honestly, 10/10 bathroom experience. Overall, it's a really solid date night spot with great service and good food. Just a couple small tweaks (music volume and cheese portions!) would make it even better. We'd definitely come back.
