From their cakes and cookies, to their parfaits and macaroons, everything just hits. On a most recent visit, I tried their biscoff parfait and it was a show stopper. It was hard for me to enjoy my Matilda chocolate cake (though I managed) knowing that I had more biscoff parfait to eat. They do coffee and other assorted beverages as well, but those are just support for the real stars of the show here, their desserts. I cannot say one bad thing I have had here (though a friend of mine says their cinnamon rolls were underwhelming). OVERALL - a great ending to an evening, or a destination unto itself. Get some, now!

Their chicken salad is another standout: fresh, flavorful, and perfect for a midday bite. Honestly, everything from the baked goods to the sandwiches is consistently delicious. I stop by at least twice a week, not just for the food, but to see Donya the heart and soul of the place. As the manager, she's become a friend to many of us who live in the building. Her energy is incredible, and she treats everyone who walks in like family. You'll leave with a full stomach and a smile, guaranteed. Oh and fun fact: Donya can sing the horns off a Billy goat. Seriously. If you stop by, ask her to sing you a song. You won't regret it!

I have not had as much baklava as other desserts, but this was just unreal. There was a ton of cinnamon present, and it went perfectly with the honey aspect (believe it was honey anyway). The flaky pastry crust made it that more enjoyable. I was thinking of going back to get it again! Will I go back? Obvious.

Ordered a brownie fudge cooke and a chocolate muffin to go. The cookie was the driest hardest cookie I have ever tasted. I threw it away as it was not edible. Had the muffin the next morning g for breakfast. The muffin seemed moist but the chocolate that the top was dipped in was not good and also was not eaten besides the initial bite. I love baked goods and I think this is the first time in my life that I have thrown out a chocolate baked good.

I ordered cookies, a scone and tea this morning. Please note that Thursday morning special is only until 11am or right before. I went a few weeks back at 11:30am and staff said "I guess it stopped and switched over." Today was the special pricing for most of it. I also ordered a veggie quiche that came with dressed greens. I would not recommend as it was excessively salty. The spinach seemed to not be chopped and layered near the top. I wish I had stopped at the sweets. Best part whether special or not was the cookies. I don't know if they are baked daily or not, but they were kept in a plastic containers. The space is small, but dining at the Jolly Pumpkin tables is allowed. The management doesn't clearly care because staff is not fully trained. I tried emailing feedback on the Thursday special and no reply after 2 weeks or so.

The pastries at Sweet Ride looked irresistable so we stopped there. I got a little bit of sticker shock when they told me how much I owed them for one cupcake and one eclair -- $9 (each was $4.50). We probably would've skipped it if we'd realized how pricy they were. The cupcake was incredibly decadent and delicious (encased in a milk chocolate shell, inside were a layer of whipped cream and layer of chocolate ganache atop a moist and delicious cupcake). The custard in the eclair was overly rich and the dessert itself too chilled to be especially enjoyable. On a future visit, I'd split the decadent cupcake two ways and skip the eclair.

The basil was a nice touch. It came out very warm, which just added to the overall feel of the croissant. The croissant itself was flaky and delicious too. Will I go back? I would.
