They offer local drinks, preserves, jams, desserts of all sorts, and homemade sauces. Honestly, it was really hard to choose something to try. The owners spent a few minutes with us goin over their menu and everything looked SO good. We settled on the Strawberry Shortcake and the owner's own concoction the Nutty Professor. The short cake was ALL homemade (the sauce, whipped cream, and sponge cake). The cake was very light and refreshing and not too sweet. This was HANDS down the best Strawberry shortcake I've ever had. We ate the entire thing in the car. The nutty professor is very unique and SO good. It's very rich but is a cross between a peanut cup and a snickers combined. It's very good but only take a couple of bites at a time We will definitely be back if we are ever in the area. A must try if you're local or visiting!

I got an iced Turkish rose pistachio latte (less sweet since the flavor combination sounded pretty indulgent) and it was absolutely incredible. It came with cream on top and was honestly one of the best coffee drinks I've had in a long time. I also grabbed an almond croissant, and it may have been the best one I've ever had. Exactly what I needed on a tough hike. The inside feels like a cozy living room with tons of live plants and so many cute little corners to sit and relax. Everything was spotless, the staff were super friendly, and the whole place just had such a welcoming vibe. This added a serious "umph" to our hiking day. Highly recommend if you're in the area! Wish I could give this place more than 5 stars!

The thing that put me off was the aggressive signage everywhere prohibiting this and that.

If you don't show a little confidence that your customers are good people, they will feel your judgment.

Red Truck is located in a cute little town on the main road where you can find several wonderful local businesses. There's street parking out front and a parking lot behind. We only come to Marshall once a year, so this year we were super surprised to see that they have made changes inside. They now have an awesome upstairs area with lots of seating. It's beautiful with lots of windows. They've added more seating downstairs as well. The food remains absolutely delicious. They've added lattes and mimosas to their menu. I forgot to take pictures which is not the norm for me, but I think the excitement of being there took over. I went two mornings in a row. The first morning I had the bacon, egg and cheese biscuit and a slice of cake. Both made perfectly. I also tasted my friend's almond croissant, which was amazing. The second morning I had the sausage, cheddar jalapeño scone, so delicious, we ordered the last 3 to go. The service is amazing! Thank you Rochelle, Monica and Jared for making me feel so welcomed. I'm already looking forward to next year!!

He and my husband joked a bit while I browsed, and that just made it feel so warm and inviting. While the interior is quite small, I guarantee that you will have plenty of choices to make when determining what you'll be taking home. The pricing? SUPER affordable! We left with so many tasty treats, it was ridiculous. But, it was absolutely worth every penny. If the idea of trying a new food piques your interest, (we had never had so many Latin desserts) then Sweet Alondra's is going to be a great place to start trying new things. It won't cost much, the staff is very helpful, and the desserts were phenomenal!

I also got a couple small tubs of chicken salad to make sandwiches with. Since they have such good treats, I tried a piece of their apple bread pudding and ended up getting a slice of that, which was amazing! Lastly, I got their pumpkin chocolate chip bread, that too was amazing! I really like this place, it's a solid choice for baked goods. I like Red Truck a lot, but feel that ever since they became one of the top bakeries in the country and their prices went up to match this status (and they also got added to Gold Belly), I don't feel the quality matched the fame. Whereas Great Harvest is just solid and affordable.
