This is a fun place to visit for some decadent treats and gifts. I have tasted their chocolates…read morebefore but never had their sweet and rich donuts. The donuts were very moist and fresh and everyone I shared them with were raving about the flavors they tried. The caramel pecan donut is my favorite. I also wanted some unique chocolates to bring for an upcoming girls weekend and picked up some cute items in their Celebrations section near the back wall. I visited around 11:30 am on a Sunday so there were a lot of cars parked near the Brunch Cafe' and in the parking lot, but I found street parking in a free, 2 hour maximum spot down the street. It was fun to also see seasonal items decorated with St. Patrick's Day and Easter themes already in the store. There are some tables and chairs inside too, to enjoy a coffee and conversation.

Great little store with some quality offerings. The hand dipped cream bars and vast selection of…read moreunique donuts are outstanding.

This was my first time visiting Elder + Oat after a friend recommended it to me and I will…read moredefinitely be going back soon! I got one of their winter menu items, which was the Snow Day Cold Coffee. The maple cinnamon cold foam was delicious. For food, I got the ricotta chili crisp toast and the flavors of honey, chili and creamy ricotta paired with the crunchy toast was perfect. I also tried their vegan chocolate glazed old-fashioned donut. Great spot for meeting with friends or doing work. They have a huge collection of board games to play as well!

It's a decent size coffee shop with a couch and many tables. I ordered their house coffee and a butter pecan scone thing. The coffee was okay. I like the scone flavor but it was pretty dry. If it warmer, moist, and maybe some sugar sprinkled on top, it would have been perfect.

I had the strawberry one and my sister got apple which shockingly was really good because I don't like apple desserts.

Cute cafe with mochi donuts, smoothies, corn dogs and milk and fruit tea…read more I enjoyed my Rose Milk Tea with added Sea foam. We tried chocolate and matcha mochi donuts. The donuts were fresh and chewy, with a light glaze frosting, not cakey or overly sweet. This is a sweet space, pastel pink, with an ivy-decorated wall and about six small tables. I wanted to try pudding on my tea (they were sold out) so I will have to come back and try it along with some other mochi donuts. Lots of interesting flavors and add-on options!

Stopped by while running some errands & decided to try some donuts & got a boba tea! Maybe it was…read morethe time of day, but, the donuts didn't taste too good. Almost as if they've been there a bit too long. Had a very... wet residue on the frosting & the dough wasnt as soft as expected. I've had mochi donuts before, so, I knew what kind of flavor & consistency I was looking for. Same with the boba tea. The pearls were a bit too tough & didn't taste quite right. The staff was very welcoming though! & it seemed like a nice little spot for teens/kids to hangout. It wasn't a horrible experience, just not my favorite. I'm gonna go back & give it another shot though!

Shame on Herb's. I left a 4-star review a few years ago, but I had to update it because I don't…read morewant someone going there based on that review and ending up totally disappointed. Honestly, I wish I could give them negative numbers because even one star is overrated. I can't speak for their regular menu, but I ordered a surprise bag on the TooGoodToGo app. Maybe I was wrong for assuming it would contain items from the day before, but what I received should not have been given away--let alone sold for any amount. It clearly had been sitting for at least a couple of days. What I received sent a clear message: they don't value their customers. It's profit over people. Why they would serve that crap is beyond my understanding. Honestly, it should have been trashed. It wasn't even palatable. I couldn't tell what the pastries were supposed to be. They were inedible by my standards, but I bit into two different pastries to give them the benefit of the doubt. They weren't just old and stale--they were bland and stingy on the filling. It was obvious they were several days past shelf life and likely not appetizing even when freshly baked. It honestly felt like the cashier just went in the back and threw a handful of old leftovers into a bag. My experience was 4 months ago, I waited and came back here to check out other reviews older and newer before changing mines just in case it was a one off situation. Unfortunately, it seems to be a consistent pattern. Needless to say, I won't be returning.
