It's always a nice treat when we decide to stop in on a whim. It's one of those places where you're like, "where do you wanna eat?" "I dunno? What do you feel like eating?" And you go around in circles and no one can pick a place. Well, this is the place! Especially for lunch. A great option of delicious hot sandwiches and yummy tasty fries that are sprinkled with some flavored salt and the POTATO SALAD? OMG so delicious and tangy. On this day I enjoyed a pesto grilled cheese. It was like eating a pizza sandwich. Wow! Pesto, tomato and ooegy gooey melted mozzarella cheese. And of course I can't leave without my favorite strawberry smoothie! So when you don't know "what to eat" come here! read more

New owners!!! This is the kind of hole-in-the-wall breakfast spot you hope no one else finds... but also want to tell everyone about. Everything is made fresh to order, nothing pre-made, and you can taste the difference. The service is consistently attentive, and the space is clean, cozy, and just feels good to be in. The food is solid across the board, but if you love Nutella, do not skip the chocolate croissants. Warm, indulgent, and absolutely worth it. read more

This is a wonderful locally-owned bakery and diner. They have an item you will find nowhere else that anyone -- and I mean anyone -- to whom you serve them will LOVE them: brownie bites! Their nickname is "crack brownies" and they are bags of cube-shaped brownies covered in powdered sugar. One-of-a-kind is hard to come by and these are the star of the show. Don't miss their other pastries and cakes as well as their large breakfast and lunch menu chock full of goodness. read more

The original owners were much better. Service and food is not as good. Especially the service!

Decided to try it out with the hubby, $14 and $13 were the average meal prices. Portions are huge, and it's delicious. Service was very nice, run by I'm guessing a little old man and his wife. Overall a nice little place to go, looked very involved in the community. read more

After leaving the "mini med center," we wanted to grab some breakfast. This hidden oasis of coffee, baked goods, and gravy perfectly fit the bill. The staff friendly and my latte came hot hot and quick. The chicken 'n waffles were tasty with crispy chicken and fluffy waffles. When biscuits and gravy are on the menu, that's how I always how I judge a new breakfast spot. And they did not disappoint. The potatoes were well seasoned and tender, and the eggs were to order. The star of the show had heart chunks of sausage patty and a tasty gravy that will stick to your ribs. The biscuit was rich and dense without being heavy. They have an expansive menu that we can't wait to explore. read more

Personally I think serving an avocado that has turned brown is unacceptable. That's my opinion and the reason for the low rating. Had they left the avocado off, my biscuit breakfast sandwich would have been good. When I took a bite and tasted the avocado I knew something must be wrong which led to me trying to take my sandwich apart to investigate and my pics show what I found. If you don't have a good avocado just say so. I'd rather not have any than pay more for something that is inedible :( The chocolate chip pancake wasn't anything special either though so I dunno. I don't live here so it won't hurt to say I won't be back. read more

The cakes at Forest Cafe are the best in the Woodlands! The food is also incredible ! But don't pass up the cake!

Great breakfast, service and lovely people. Big portions & love the little nook they have with coloring sheets and board games. Definitely will try their lunch menu next time. read more

Love this Mom and Pop shop. Very family friendly. Super nice place to take your time and enjoy the food and company. You cannot leave without getting something sweet. Their "crack" brownies (powdered sugar covered bite size brownies) are addicting. Their cakes are so good. My go to for custom cakes. They need at least two days in advance to accommodate a custom order. read more

This is a great little gem we found today for breakfast. My sister had the wet burrito and I had the pancake breakfast. Also no extra charge for chicken or turkey sausage. All of our food was very good. The atmosphere is cute and comfortable. They have a very large array of desserts that look awesome as well. If I am looking for a sweet treat, I will definitely stop back in. Also good for multiple checks as you order at the counter and they bring it to you.. read more

Poor customer service from the owner. Try to support family owned local businesses but will find another bakery.

Food was great I had the turkey patty melt, service was astounding and questions were answered before you could even ask them, very nice decorations and wheelchair accommodation was decent read more

I had the French toast. It was delightful. The ambiance is so sweet and cute. The service was quick and you could tell they had regulars and knew them well. read more

This is a mom and pop bakery cafe in a strip mall off of college park drive. Everything we got was plentiful and good. I got sausage gravy and biscuit with country fried potatoes had enough to take home for dinner. Hubby got the forest sandwich it was huge and good. Also the danishes were fresh and homemade. Will be back read more

What a hidden gem. Wish I would have found this place sooner. Great food, clean establishment, fair price, and very courteous staff. Plus, the have an exceptional bakery of cakes and cupcakes. Bon appetite. read more

Food is fresh, hot, and very tasty. Great coffee, ample menu. Wish we lived close by.

When you're not in the mood for another chain breakfast restaurant and want some good homemade options, Forest Cafe delivers. I wanted the simple egg bacon toast breakfast after a fasting Dr appt in the area and fell upon this place. I loved the personality of the place with its Halloween decorations, coloring pages, lively staff and nice menu of plates and desserts. Coffee was self serve and deliciously hot. The manager came out and greeted a holy man who was a customer at the next table. Very personable. In fact that is probably why I didn't give them a five because there appeared to be some personal conversations behind the counter which everyone could hear which kept the homey feel lol but took from the professionalism of the experience. Don't let that stop you from checking this place out. They have bagged goodies that are perfect for taking back to the office or snacks for later. If i lived near I would make this a regular stop. read more

Got a egg, white avocado, spinach, and tomato on sourdough with a hot tea to go. Cappuccino machine was down. It was a very good sandwich. Only critique is that the sourdough bread was covered in butter and fried which made it less healthy and greasy. Great selection of teas. However, they didn't have any natural zero sugar sweeteners like Stevia. Just sucralose and aspartame laden sweeteners. So they need to get with the times and get some Stevia. I would love to come back and try something else. read more

This place was cute and cozy on the inside, but the taste of the food was lacking. Ordering is done at the counter, and the food is brought to the table. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, and it was disappointing. The gravy had zero flavor, and the sausage chunks were too big. I also bought some of the brownies that people rave about in the other reviews, and I personally didn't feel like they were anything special. read more

We've had breakfast here a few times and it hasn't disappointed once. Staff is always friendly and service is pretty quick. The ambiance reminds me of being back in my grandmas kitchen. I've ordered the omelette and hubby has had the B&G and all were delicious and great size for the price! Always a great pick for breakfast in my opinion. read more

We saw the great review and decided to try. We ordered breakfast and it was a little over priced. The biscuit tasted like cornbread. The eggs were over cooked and the potatoes are fried and plain cubes. We opted for a little treat after with a piece of pumpkin bread. It was so dry, I choked! Needless to say, just a little disappointed. Service was friendly. Restaurant is small and clean. read more

Great lunch! Enjoyed Turkey sandwich with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and fries! Huge portions of food! My kids loved their chicken strips and French fries. Big menu of breakfast items and lunch. We had missed breakfast at went for lunch. Ton of parking and can eat outside as well. Reasonable prices and next time must try for breakfast! read more

It was great! The cupcakes were amazing. Staff was friendly and service was fast. The location is easy to find.

Excellent customer service / family owned restaurant/bakery. Food is of the highest quality and so good. Highly recommend. A great foodie find, thanks to YELP. Delicious meal and I got a bag of the brownie bites to go. Definitely agree with those on Yelp...don't miss out on them. read more

Damn, I feel like all I do in Texas is eat. UGH. Anyway - HELLO THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. The guy is so friendly and the food is delicious! I had the eggs benedict and it was so good and so much I couldn't finish. The first time, I had a veggie omelet with country potatoes, toast, and I thought I would fall asleep at the table. OH and the BROWNIE BITES - you have been warned. SO DAMN GOOD. If you get a chance, please check out this place because it really is that damn good. I can't wait to return. Oh - they also have amazing cinnamon rolls and pastries. read more

I was overcharged $80 dollars for my meal due to I register malfunction and when I brought it to their attention, there was no compassion nor did they ever say sorry at any time. They all just looked shocked and returned the money, not once was their and apology or anything ! I always come through for lunch and spend my money with them because it is a nice bakery, but I don't think I will be returning due to the lack of empathy for their mistake! read more

Forest Cafe And Bakery - Coconut Cream cake - Desserts Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

Best breakfast and bakery in The Woodlands area. Fast and friendly family run business, the staff now knows my family by name and our order unless we change things up. Omelette's are my favorite and they make the best one around, the "Meat Lovers" there is no shortage of ingredients it definitely lives up to the name. The best part about Forest Cafe and Bakery is after breakfast dessert. From their signature brownie bites to their full cakes, every confectionery is top notch and will not disappoint. A few of my family members even had them make cakes for weddings, anniversaries and birthdays. I have been a regular here since I discovered them 4 years ago and I have not been disappointed. read more

Whether it's their moist cream filled cupcakes you crave, hot self serve coffee, savory corned beef hash and eggs, or their forest cafe breakfast burrito you will not be disappointed. We come here at least once a month and I just can't order anything other than the forest breakfast burrito with salsa. It is so tasty and just the right size. The staff there are always friendly and helpful. And our kids always have a new set of coloring book pages to choose from to keep them entertained while we wait for our breakfast. This is a must try breakfast spot. read more

Never been here and will never go again. It felt like we were bothering the staff from ordering till we left. The Tea is a K-cup you serve yourself. We apparently came too close to closing not realizing they close at 3pm. We sat and waited for our order, each came out at different times. Then in the middle of having a conversation, ( it was a quick business coffee meeting) the started putting chairs up, sweeping, the lady with the broom made us move our feet under our table so she could sweep. How rude! At least the manager should have came over to us and said they were getting ready to close. So they pretty much kicked us out without saying a word. We took a walk to a few stores down and sat outside. Also, there is no privacy at all in this place so don't expect to have any conversations without the entire cafe hearing you. The bakery was not impressive. Scones, Halloween cupcakes, a croissant and a few danishes I could get at Kroger. read more

I love their chicken salad salad. It's so hard to find places that don't serve underwhelming wilted salad and this place delivers with crisp crunchy salad. I crave it all the time and make the 30 min drive every few weeks to get it. Anytime I post a picture of my salad people ask where I got it from since it's so appetizing! Also their chocolate cupcake is the BOMB!! The cakes/cupcakes are so moist and the chocolate filling is delish! Customer service is very personable. One time I didn't realize what time they closed until I was close and had driven my 30 min drive and I called ahead to order to go and asked if they closed right on the clock and they were so nice (I think it was the owner) and said since I wasn't far I was ok and he would take the order. I thought that was very nice of him! read more

This family-owned dinner and bakery has become an occasional part of our routine for weekend brunch or lunch. Portions are generally large, with sandwiches and specialty burgers spilling out across the plate. Breakfast is okay; pancakes and fruit are fine, but their burrito needs spicier salsa for me. Their deli sandwiches are great! Flavored specialty coffees are reasonable, especially relative to Starbucks prices. Their little bakery can make custom cakes, and their danishes are amazing. I'm obsessed with their walnut danish. Restrooms are reasonably clean on weekends. read more

Food was very good with good selection. Biscuits and gravy were delicious. Ambiance was very basic.

Great experience here. Delicious food. I had the veg scramble. Great place to stop by in between classes, or with family. Very kind service-joked around with me. Will return. Ambiance was like a friendly neighborhood diner feel. read more
