First time to Bolivar Bread Bakery and what a treat this spot is. The smell of bread when you walk…read morein is one of the best ways to welcome you. Fresh baked bread is on the rack when you walk in with many choices of breads (so many sourdough offerings ) and other baked goods such as cinnamon rolls, scones, shortbread, coconut macaroons, pepperoni rolls, etc. We arrived around noon on a Saturday and had plenty of choices. I was interested in their basic sourdough - two sizes available. The smaller ones were still too warm to slice, so I opted for the larger loaf. It's deceiving just how large this loaf is when it's on the rack, but sliced and bagged it was almost the length of my arm! And very reasonably prized at $13. They come in a freezer bag too! I also learned pepperoni rolls are one of the WV state food and this establishment won best pepperoni roll 4 times, so we tried those as well. So very good - it was a pretzel roll with prepperoni inside. We were lucky enough to get 2 or their 4 remaining cinnamon rolls. The lady helping us said they are worth every calorie and she was not exaggerating one bit! We took a bite of them in the parking lot before we left and I walked back in for the last two to take home and freeze. (Sorry for those after me!). They also offer local and delicious sounding jams, cheese, cheese, milks, and some little trays of cheese that would be perfect for an impromptu picnic with one of their pull apart baguettes. They also offer beverages in a cooler case. Super friendly team working there with absolutely high quality and delicious items. Definitely check them out if you visit Harper's Ferry or surrounding areas. I'm sure anyone local also knows how special this place is. Next time I'm back in that area, I'll definitely work Bolivar Bread Bakery into my plans! (There is some (limited) street parking out front and a small parking lot in the back of the building.)

I was hoping to purchase granola bars for the hike, but they didn't have any (they do sell very small packages of trail mix, though). I purchased a sandwich to sustain us on the hike. There's an order form you fill out for the sandwich order before you order. They took less than 5 minutes to prepare my turkey sandwich on multigrain bread. They have basic sandwich meats and fixings, nothing too fancy. For vegetarians, your only option looks like a PB&J. The market also sells beer and wine, baked goods, some local products (such as McCutcheon's products), assorted drinks, and I saw some cutting boards/gift items for sale. There's two unisex restrooms in the art gallery next door, which I appreciated for after the hike, where I could change my clothes. Yes, we came back after the hike, because I was dead set on ordering some baked goods! They sell cookies and pies by the slice. I got a banana cream pie (delicious) and a buckeye. My husband got a fudge brownie which he really enjoyed. I would come back anytime I'm in the area!

For those who knew my grandma, she never turned down ice cream. So while in town last week for her…read morefuneral, my friend suggested we visit Amy & Alex's Homemade Ice Cream and Coffee. I'm not usually a huge ice cream person, but it felt like the perfect way to honor her. The shop itself was bright, clean, and welcoming, with several people already enjoying their treats. We grabbed a high table by the front window, which made for some great people-watching while we indulged. The menu immediately caught my eye. The range of flavors wasn't just broad--it was creative, unique, and full of options you don't see every day. That foodie spark kicked in, and I knew I had to go with a flight so I could taste a few. (Brilliant idea, by the way--four little cups of different flavors!) Our picks were: Grilled Lime Burnt Honey Crunchy PB Jelly Espresso Mascarpone Lemon Biscotti Brown Butter Pecan & Praline Each scoop came with a color-changing spoon (such a fun touch), and every flavor was creamy, consistent in texture, and absolutely delicious. My favorites were a tie between the Espresso Mascarpone (though I think it could stand strong without the lemon biscotti) and the Brown Butter Pecan & Praline. The Grilled Lime Burnt Honey was bright and unique, and the Crunchy PB Jelly was tasty but leaned a bit sweet for me. Overall, this was some of the best ice cream I've had--flavorful, high-quality, and true to its name. Add in the kind, helpful staff and the clean, cozy atmosphere, and it made for a really special stop. I left not just with a happy palate, but also with a new tradition: every year on August 22, I'll seek out a new ice cream spot in honor of my grandma. Amy & Alex's was the perfect place to start.

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!
