The first time I stopped by, I grabbed a cookie. That day they had the banana pudding cookie. Since I love banana pudding, this was a no-brainer. I don't know how they got this cookie to taste like banana pudding, but they did. Adding the white chocolate drizzle took it over the top for me. The second time I had the sweet potato cheesecake. I love sweet potatoes and I have not had a sweet potato dish or dessert that I didn't like. This cheesecake kept the streak alive. I'm assuming this is a seasonal dish, but I really wish it was a permanent item on the menu. If there was a way that I could eat this every day and not gain weight, I would. I'm hoping I can catch it again before the season changes and they moved on to some other cheesecake flavor. I'm pretty sure I was helped by the owner both times. I can't remember her name, but she was pleasant and gave great recommendations.

The selection is top notch. The flavors are unique. Vegan options are aplenty. During my visits I've had the vegan Black Cherry, Lemon Poppyseed and Mint Oreo but have sampled oodles of others. All have been creamy and flavorful. Service is always on point here. I've gotten the same service when it is just me and when I'm there with eight students, a handful of chaperones and only one employee. Scoopers have always taken the time to provide samples, answer questions and scoop ice cream. Annapolis Ice Cream stickers and merch are on point as well. So creative and fun. Annapolis Ice Cream is definitely not the cheapest in the city but it is by far my favorite.

The pastries were fresh, soft and mouth watering. The mango iced matcha was a little disappointing due to the bitter after taste of the drink. Looking forward to trying other pastries and other drinks at the patisserie.

There is also the option to place orders for larger pastries, platters, cupcakes, and cakes. The staff working here was very kind and attentive. I opted for a small box that comes with two petite fours and three macarons. The macaron flavors that I tried were the salted caramel, milk chocolate amaretto, and dark chocolate. The petit four flavors that I tried were the red velvet and the triple chocolate. Everything I had here was so beautifully made and tasted fresh. I will definitely be back here again.

I wouldn't visit a second time. It wasn't awful, it just was not all that the reviews said. I wouldn't recommend, but I also wouldn't say don't give it a try - maybe I went on an off day. It wasn't as sweet and the dough was just bland really...the frosting was ok (but again nothing great). Since there was a lot more dough to frosting ratio - I was left feeling like it was a no for me.

The buttercream icing is classic and fresh strawberries were used for the topping. The customer service was good and very helpful with placing my order. The bakeshop looks and feels like a bake shop, with glass display cases showcasing their featured goods. However, they also offer ice cream here, seasonal pies, and other sweet treats like banana pudding and their signature SMASH cups. SMASH is essentially a cupcake cut in half and layered with a couple scoops of ice cream of your choice. The classic cake and ice cream duo. Overall, a good experience and I will visit again for both custom orders and single servings.

I wish I knew about this place sooner. It's absolutely worth…read morethe drive from DC, especially if you want to spend the day out east. It's PACKED first thing in the morning so be prepared. You can find dry goods, fresh produce, burger counters, deli, prepared foods from fresh donuts (the best apple, blueberry and peach fritters ever), to pretzel logs, fried chicken, barbecue, to smoothies and frappes. Not to mention the insane bakery section in the middle of the store with fresh bread, pies, cakes, muffins, bagels, even gluten free baked goods as well. It's a fun place to spend a bunch of time just perusing all they have to offer. It's busy and noisy and the lines can be long, so just be ready for that. Bring cash as some vendors offer lower prices if you pay in cash instead of with a card. Take your goods and drive the short way to a park or the beach for the best morning!

TLDR: Overpriced, tea just wasn't good…read more I tried this place around a year ago because it had amazing reviews, but my drink was so terrible that I couldn't finish it. It had an awful metallic taste, which I think came from the lychee jelly (lychee is not supposed to taste like that). I drink a ton of boba, and have never had something so bad I couldn't finish it before. I came back today to try it again, since the reviews of this place are continuously amazing, and mine is the only bad review. The toppings were the worst part. The tapioca pearls had firm and dry cores (I think it was maybe undercooked), which really brought the drink down. The jelly was not good, and I wouldn't even call it "jelly" personally. It was essentially sugar and flavor pellets with a processed and unpleasant tangy aftertaste. The tea wasn't great either. I sampled their jasmine tea since I really like jasmine, but I wasn't a fan, and I can make better with cheap grocery store tea. I tried their oolong tea, which was decent, but the flavor felt pretty diluted unfortunately. I also tried the Hokkaido tea, which was very sweet, and didn't taste quite like Hokkaido tea in my opinion. Normally I don't mind when boba is sweet, but I feel this place is pushing it too much. I ended up getting a little bit of the Hokkaido tea, and about 5x that amount of the oolong tea (which was fully unsweetened), and it was definitely sweet enough for me. There's a drink I sometimes get when I'm at college called "crème brûlée ube brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba". I personally prefer to call it "diabetes in a cup". I think the sweetness of that drink would be comparable to a full cup of the Hokkaido tea. Additionally, $8.46 is an absurd price to pay for this. I can get better boba for $6 down the street, or much better boba for $6-8 about 15 minutes away. If I want genuinely good boba, there's some shops in Rockville that I happily pay $8 a cup for, and they blow this place out of the water. This would be 3 star tea if it was $6. The staff member was nice, and the building itself was cute. The staff member recommended the Hokkaido tea with a pump of brown sugar syrup. This is why I tried the Hokkaido tea, but I didn't opt for the brown sugar pump since I'm not a huge fan of brown sugar boba (I prefer fruit tea and more eastern new-style tea). The "build your own tea" is a fine gimmick, but I don't want to pay $8 for it, especially when the toppings you can add are low quality. Additionally, some places have enough customization on their menu that you can essentially build your own tea anyways.

Sweet Bamboo Boba is hands down the best place I've ever found for bubble tea…read more You can make your own drink exactly how you want it, with your own flavors, combinations, and recipes. They have standard options too, but the fun part is building your own creation. They have bubbles, all kinds of jellies, teas, syrups, toppings, and so many ways to customize it. It reminds me of one of those self-serve frozen yogurt places, but for bubble tea. My go-to drink is strawberry jelly and lychee jelly on the bottom, then I fill the cup about two thirds of the way with ice, add coconut tea up to the top of the ice, and finish it with butterfly pea flower on top. It has no caffeine, it looks beautiful, and it tastes amazing. Sweet Bamboo Boba is officially one of my favorite spots. Sweet Bamboo Boba is hands down the best place I've ever found for bubble tea.
