I really wanted to love New Moon Vegan Bakery, but unfortunately, it left me feeling a little…read moreunderwhelmed. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which was definitely a plus. I tried the tomato and peach focaccia as well as a blueberry scone. Both were good, but neither was particularly memorable. I was expecting something a little more special or unique, especially for the price. Speaking of price, $24 for two slices of focaccia and a blueberry scone felt pretty steep. What made it harder to justify was that the baked goods were served on a very cheap paper plate, which didn't exactly add to the overall experience. I also found the dine-in area disappointing. It was quite dark, somewhat dingy, and could have been cleaner. For a bakery where you're encouraged to sit and enjoy your food, the atmosphere really could use some attention. Overall, the staff were nice and the food was good, but at these prices, I expected more from both the baked goods and the overall experience. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything that would have me rushing back.

Just like others, I want to love this place but they really have to figure out putting savory items…read morein a different case than sweet items because your sweet items will take on the taste of the savory items if they are stored. they also have great focaccia if you get the right piece, the middle pieces are so undercooked that it's literally still dough raw dough unsafe to eat raw dough.

They were your regukar flavors except for Lemon White chocolate. i bought 1 of each along with their cranberry walnut scone. If you like the thin cooked that spread and remain soft, these will work for you. I need crispy edges at least. The scone was a very sad, depressed lump. After my first taste, i broke off pieces around the edge (pictures included) and you will see a cranberry walnut scone bereft of cranberries. There was NO TASTE of the dried fruit, even when i picked one out, it was a tiny teardrop of a possibility of the tart/sweet dried gem normally enjoyed. (maybe they should be macerated in orange juice or eben cranberry juice). oh! the walnuts were large nice pieces but with the horrible raw-flour taste overpowering even the mighty walnut, the lump could not be redeemed.

They also have cute little cookie decorating kits out right now for Easter ready to be purchased. Other goodies were cookies, fresh baked bread, honey sticks and dipped rice crispy treats, to name a few. You can also get coffee, teas and lemonades. I ended up getting the croissant stuffed and topped with chocolate chip cookie dough. It was delicious. Not overly sweet, but I ate it two different times throughout the day. It's definitely worth the $5! The employees were very patients as we looked at all the goodies trying to decide what we wanted, and willing to answer any questions.

They had an array of pastries to choose from, and you can also order cakes, including wedding cakes. My friend got a rum ball which she said was really good, and I got a pistachio raspberry tart; the pistachio cream and raspberry topping was delicious, but the tart shell was tough as old boots, to borrow a phrase from "The Great British Bakeoff": I couldn't cut it with either a knife or fork! They also sell a small array of grocery items from Poland, but not much in the way of ready-to-go beverages, which would have been nice to see.

Scone Emergency = Joyful Triumph!…read more Let me tell you about these scones -- they're not just baked goods, they're buttery, crumbly little clouds of joy. Sweet, flaky perfection in every bite, with a variety of flavors so tempting it's honestly unfair to the other pastries in town. I showed up right at closing time like a woman on a mission -- I had an emergency (yes, scone emergencies are real) because my friends were taking a painfully early flight and I needed to send them off with something that said, "Bon voyage, but with carbs." Not only was I greeted with kindness, but I was offered a delightful selection of scones like it was still mid-morning! The service? Superb. Compassionate. Possibly saintly. The shop itself is also a total gem -- cozy, welcoming, and full of great energy. It's the kind of place where you want to linger, sip your coffee slowly, and pretend you're a local character in a charming indie film. The next morning, I enjoyed the outside with a fresh brew and a scone, soaking in the morning peace and feeling very pleased with myself. Meanwhile, my friends, in their sleepy travel frenzy, forgot their share of scones. TRAGIC for them. But also... YESSSS for me -- more buttery goodness to hoard enjoy! Moral of the story: come for the scones, stay for the kindness and the vibe. And if you're flying out early -- maybe forget a bag so you have an excuse to come back.

The attention to detail was incredible, and everything looked just as amazing as it tasted. From the very beginning, the communication was exceptional. The team kept us updated every step of the way, making the entire process smooth and stress free. It was clear how much care and effort went into every detail to bring our vision to life. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful and delicious everything was. A huge shoutout to the management and staff for going above and beyond throughout the entire process. Everyone was so kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything turned out perfectly. I highly recommend Hey Sugar for any celebration. They helped make our graduation party so special, and I can't wait to order from them again!

Hey Sugar is a wonderful dessert shop that serves a nice variety of sweet treats such as cakes,…read morecupcakes, pies, soft-serve ice cream, milkshakes and more. We were in the area and decided to check out this spot as it looked cool and some of the dessert concoctions looked awesome. The shop was nicely decorated, inviting, and had friendly staff. The staff was helpful in getting our tasty as it was our first time here. From their specialty soft-serve ice cream concoctions (eclectic looking sundaes), we ordered a Cloud 9 made with Lavender Honey soft-serve and a Uh Oh Oreo w/ vegan Coconut soft-serve (see my photos). The Cloud 9 came with a cotton candy top and it looked so Instagram perfect. It was delicious. I really liked the Lavender Honey soft-serve. The Oreo one was okay as the vegan Coconut soft-serve was icy and not quite my cup of tea. This shop is a cool, cute, and awesome sweet treats spot that should be on your list to check out if you enjoy desserts.

I really wanted to like this place but the truth is, I didn't. I ordered ahead for some cupcakes…read moreand was quoted a price. When I arrived, I was informed that she decided to make a few more cupcakes to fill in the serving dish. I was fine with that until she raised the amount that she said I owed... If she decided to make more, that's on her. Why would I have to pay more? So I'm not sure if she raised the price because of the couple cupcakes she added or if she just changed it haphazardly. I'm not sure which would be worse....either way, bad. I didn't squabble over a couple bucks but was annoyed. Then, I paid and I didn't notice until I was on my way that she gave me the wrong change....again to her advantage. Umm....wtf? I don't know what to say about a business like this!!! The cupcakes themselves weren't good. The frosting had hardened and it was pure sugar!! I can't even say the flavor was good....even though I generally love sweets. These were too sweet!! I honestly hated them!! I will not return to this place....ever.

I've had mixed experiences here. They make excellent cookies, of which I've tried several, and…read moretheir chocolate pretzels are standard. But their cakes really don't hold up. I've had them twice, and both were consumed within the hour of buying them. Both had frosting that tasted like sweetened plastic, a strangely wet (not moist, just wet) interior, and an off flavor. One cake in particular stood out, a chocolate cake with white frosting, which tasted like someone had mixed flat rootbeer with a few teaspoons of rubbing alcohol and soaked the bottom of the cake in it. It was very strange, and we obviously didn't finish it. I maintain that they make good cookies, though, and I'll probably go back for those.

Her cakes usually feed 12-16 people so she instructed me to cut it into pieces and freeze it. Her cake lasted all of 3 days and was consumed by only 3 (Me, my husband and daughter).
