Compared to other places, their flavor options are a bit more limited but their sizes are a bit larger. They have some cute photo spots and some outdoor seating options (but if it's crowded you're super close to plenty of outdoor seating options along the river too). This time around I tried the white chocolate salty oatmeal cookie flavor (the chunks are great but minimal - 5/10) and the peanut butter (loved this one 9/10).

Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful and delicious everything was. A huge shoutout to the management and staff for going above and beyond throughout the entire process. Everyone was so kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything turned out perfectly. I highly recommend Hey Sugar for any celebration.

The staff was helpful in getting our tasty as it was our first time here. From their specialty soft-serve ice cream concoctions (eclectic looking sundaes), we ordered a Cloud 9 made with Lavender Honey soft-serve and a Uh Oh Oreo w/ vegan Coconut soft-serve (see my photos). The Cloud 9 came with a cotton candy top and it looked so Instagram perfect. It was delicious. I really liked the Lavender Honey soft-serve. The Oreo one was okay as the vegan Coconut soft-serve was icy and not quite my cup of tea. This shop is a cool, cute, and awesome sweet treats spot that should be on your list to check out if you enjoy desserts.

She didn't seem too happy but maybe that was just my perception. Anyway, wife got an omelette , and I got a BLT sandwich. Kind of a no frills place; simple food that's good without any flair. My sandwich had the thick kind of bacon, so it's harder to make it crispy. There was a lot of bacon on the sandwich. Also came with soup and fries. I liked my meal. My wife's omelette looked dry but she said Thats the way she likes it. We had a $30 Clipp certificate and the bill was $29.27 so I had to spend an additional 73 cents to get the discount. I wound up ordering a baked apple pancake to go (frozen one), but I haven't tried it yet. Overall, a good experience, if you like a simple breakfast/brunch type of place.

Perhaps NYE had the staff tired... I am attempting to give them the benefit of the doubt. My husband loves his coffee in the morning, and for every single refill, he had to get up and ask for it. He got a biscuit, and had to get up to ask for butter. If a place is called "Tasty Biscuit," then they had better be sure to serve Tasty Biscuits! His was stale and just fell apart. I had the Avocado Toast, and both the toast and the avocado were inedible. I felt that they used bread and avocado that they had purchased over a week ago. The prices at Tasty Biscuit are a bit higher than at most diners, so I feel it is entirely fair to receive at least adequate food and service, of which we received neither. I hated leaving this review, but Tasty Biscuit should feel worse with sub-par to awful everything as a start to 2026.

It honestly felt like asking for the standard amount of toppings was an inconvenience. There was also confusion over pricing that should have been explained before the order was made.

There are plenty of other Subway locations that provide much better service. I won't be returning to this one.
