Capers aren't my thing so at the risk of horrifying the purists, I got my lox and smear sans capers. And it was outstanding for me. Great looking loaves of bread, cookies, muffins on offer as well but I kept it simple. Nice vibe with a number of tables and a wall-long counter with ample plugs so you can write Yelp reviews, watch the bagels get made, and do a little grading on a Sunday morning. Easy off the highway if you are like me going from DC to points west via 270 and in need of a breakfast that isn't handed out of the same fast food window that you've done countless times. Make your morning something distinct and memorable and drop by Twin Bears Bakery. You won't be sorry.

This place is the best! Frederick FINALLY has good bagels again. Ever since Market Street Bagel and…read moreDeli closed down, Frederick has severely lacked a place to get a delicious bagel. Everywhere else unfortunately tastes like repacked Thomas bagels. I've yet to try the other items at Twin Bears, but honestly the bagels are so good I will return again and again. The space itself is also very charming and cozy! It's a great spot to catch up with old friends over coffee or to strike a conversation up with a neighbor. 10/10 recommend! I'd rate higher stars if I could. Thank you Twin Bears for bringing amazing products to Frederick and beyond!

I cannot say enough good things about Deb's Artisan Bakehouse in Middletown, MD! This small bakery…read moreoffers both sweet and savory items for its customers to enjoy! I was shocked by the wide variety of pastries, pies, bagels, cookies and much more available in the small bakery. As soon as you enter the doors, the warm smell of fresh-baked goodies fill your senses. The menu changes weekly, so there's always something new to try. The staff work quickly and are very friendly and helpful. They took the time to explain the items to customers and struck up conversations with the regulars. The treats are on the pricey side, but they're 100% worth every penny. I selected a morning bun and a raspberry jam sugar cookie and LOVED each item. As I ate the cookie, I kept repeating "this is soooo good!" Once they sell out of each item, they're done for the day, so be sure to visit early. If you're in the Middletown area, I highly recommend visiting Deb's Artisan Bakehouse. You will *not* be disappointed.

Nana B also has other donut choices since Kinklings are only available on Fat Tuesday. My families favorite donuts are the cronuts (Saturdays only). Their menu changes slightly monthly.

I got a sour cream, Boston cream and a cronut. Three different styles of donut, each perfectly executed and absolutely delicious. I ate them over the course of two days, but oh my goodness. It's a good thing I don't live close by because this place would see me all the time! The nutter butter Cronut was phenomenal. I've had a few favorite donut shops over the years, but I think this one just took the top place!

They had a lot of delicious pastries and cakes as well. Plenty of parking options and other shops and stores in the shopping center. Its a small spot, but it was perfect to take my latte to go, and was a cute set up. Service was excellent and the prices were petty comparable.

Went to stop by here on Friday 12/19/25. I don't often leave negative reviews but because the meat…read moremix-up is a serious issue, not a small mistake. My gf and I ordered chicken adobo to share and was told it was chicken. After eating it, we realized it was clearly pork. When I brought this up, the staff did not believe us and continued to insist it was chicken instead of taking the concern seriously. They didn't even try to look at the bowl they served me. Let me be clear this is not just about preference serving pork when a customer is told it's chicken can have major religious and dietary consequences. Many people avoid pork for religious reasons, and dismissing that concern is unacceptable. Accuracy and transparency with ingredients are basic expectations, especially when it comes to meat. We got a few baked good we got silvana was good. The biko was gods cooked well the sweetness was balanced. The restaurant was clean and quiet. The vibe was chill. But that doesn't outweigh the impact of being misled about what I was eating. Trust is broken, and I won't be returning. Gwenies need to train their staff and they need to clearly label meats and take customer concerns seriously especially when religion and dietary restrictions are involved. I have been a fan of Gwenies for years and would even travel to their original location in Rockville MD. Please make sure you check your bowls get to her correct meat you order! I won't be returning such a shame.

Originally when I was browsing bakeries and pastry shops in the area, the listing said coming soon,…read morebut as I was milling about on Market after getting some fragrant teas from Voila! I saw people coming out of here! I didn't hesitate, I skipped right on across the street to see what I could see. The cutest Korean bakery! The same bakery you know and love from H Mart now has a stand alone location in the heart of downtown Frederick. I took a spin around, snapped some photos and then grab a tray to load up with goodies. I love that its self-serve. You can always get the one you want without the awkward and mostly ineffective pointing and direction giving from behind the glass lol. I picked up a nice mix or sweet and savories. I think my favorite was the spicy jalapeño ham & bacon roll. It was soft, spicy, salty, and just the right amount of sweet from the dough. You can order finer pastries, coffee, and boba tea from the counter and eat in or take it to go. I'll be coming here every time I'm in town for sure!

We were driving through Fredrick on our way home & came across this cute cafe! I was originally…read morelooking for something else but when I saw this I had to check it out. It turns out it was a Korean bakery & cafe which was unexpected for the area. We got the salt bread & egg tart which were both great! They also included an extra small pastry as a bonus which was nice. As for the teas, they were on the sweeter side so I wasn't the biggest fan. I wish we could adjust the sweetness and the boba was ok, it hardened up pretty quickly. I'd return for thr pastries but not the boba.

Juliet's Italian Market & Cafe is a little slice of Bologna right in downtown Frederick. The moment…read morewe stepped inside, it felt like walking into a neighborhood alimentari in Italy--cozy, welcoming, and filled with the aroma of good things being made with care. There are a few tables out front, but we were lucky enough to snag the single two‑seat table inside, which added to the charm. We shared the muffuletta, served on a soft hoagie roll and layered with Juliet's homemade tapenade. It was excellent--bright, briny, and beautifully balanced. You can tell everything here is crafted with intention. A wonderful stop for anyone who loves authentic Italian flavors and a genuinely inviting atmosphere. I'm already looking forward to going back.

They also have imported deli meats, cheeses, olives, and sausages. They are even known for their homemade Mozzarella cheese. We entered and felt that the area was quite small. I don't believe 6 adults could stand inside comfortably for long. It was quite cluttered too. We placed our order and opted to wait outside. We were told that it would take 15-20 minutes to receive our order of two paninis. We ordered the Italian (prosciutto, sopressata, homemade mozzarella cheese, and sliced garden tomatoes, homemade basil pesto) & the Sicilian (spicy capocolla ham, homemade mozzarella cheese, sliced garden tomatoes, and red onions, homemade basil pesto). The sandwiches were quite tasty. I especially loved the delicious bread. The meats seemed fresh and the pesto was tasty! The sandwiches got the spot! Our paninis were approximately $12 a piece. I highly recommend calling your order in for pick-up. There's one small table with two chairs... It's not a dine-in restaurant. Parking an be tricky, but there is a designated parking space outside the building.

(We got GF pies at a different GF specialty shop last year, and the crust was not so good, even though that other place has a fantastic GF chicken pot pie with an amazing crust).

Bottom line: pricey but worth it!

The crust was perfect! And the cookies and cream cake?? OMG!!! DELICIOUS! The cake was so moist, which is difficult to find sometimes when it's gf. The cream and GF oreos were the best combination. I went back the other day and grabbed a mini cheesecake with blueberry sauce and a ham and cheese scone. So yummy! I'm excited that they are right in my neighborhood too. Must try for anyone GF.
