Finally, I found it. I have been trying to find Rotella's Honey Wheat Nugget bread for years…read more HyVee used to carry it all the time but then it was gone.

It wasn't rehearsed it was a moment and it really put this place at a new level for me (also I realized it was "the crumb" Spanish not French ‍, ai had a laugh at myself) Food is sublime and the coffee is and well I don't have enough pockets for the sweets . See you next year

Food and pastries were exceptional. 5 stars. Regular brewed coffee was good. Espresso based drinks…read morewere poor at best. Zero stars. If you are looking for A craft latte- this is not the option. Lunch? Cant miss. Sandwich's are amazing.

Stop 2 of our daddy daughter afternoon. Dessert and coffee!…read more Tucked away in Valley West Mall is European Taste. This shop has been on my list for a while, but every time I seem to get to VWM is on Mondays. The only day European Taste is closed. That's my luck... Lol It's a small space with three two person tables if you choose to dine-in. Which we did... It's order and pay at the counter. The majority of the food items are handed to you upon ordering and they bring the drinks to your table when they are done being prepared. The menu board is easy to navigate and the desserts are showcased right up front in a glass refrigerated case. Straws, spoons, lids, etc. are at a station to your Left as you face the front counter. The owner (Alina) helped us today and you couldn't ask for better customer service! Very personable. I really enjoyed our conversation! She let me know most items are prepared fresh and a few of the specialty items come in through other local sources and/or a distributor. We ordered the following: 2x Tiramisu cake 1x Chocolate macaron 1x Double latte with vanilla syrup with oat milk (hot) 1x Blended chai; iced with vanilla syrup Everything was fantastic and I know I'm going to be back! My daughter is a Starbucks girl and she said the chai was sooo much better here... At almost half the price! Besides the tiramisu cake they offer a tiramisu cupcake... If you zoom in on the picture of the tiramisu cupcake you will note the included extra shot of espresso poised in the tube to be released into the pastry... I have to try that! Not a lot of businesses are thriving in Valley West Mall and I wish I'd made it here sooner. VWM doesn't have the food court of locally owned businesses that Merle Hay Mall has... Yet. But this place is worth the stop! It's literally a couple of storefronts inside the entrance by Blaze Pizza on the second level. Plenty of parking and easy to get to! Convenient to grab and go! If you haven't checked them out yet... Swing in and say hello! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61559973381958 https://order.online/store/31914193?pickup=true...

We walked into European taste and were greeted immediately. The ambiance was relaxing with a cozy…read moreatmosphere, but unfortunately the seating is limited. Since it is located in the mall, you are able to sit elsewhere. We decided to try the Honey Cake, Lungo, and Iced Caramel Latte. The Honey Cake was deliciously elegant and not too sweet. This was my first time trying a Lungo and it was fabulous! You can get a single or double and it was overall somewhat small, but I loved the richness and creaminess of this espresso. My significant other enjoyed the iced caramel latte and drank it quicker than most places we have been! Overall, this is a solid place for European treats and great coffee!

We were greeted when we walked in and seated immediately. They placed warm pida bread with olive oil on our table - it was fantastic! Our server was very polite and made a few suggestions. My wife went with dumplings and I got kebabs. Both were delicious! I had Turkish Coffee and my wife had Turkish tea. But the main thing was the baklava! I've had it many times before but the variety and flavor here was outstanding. We plan on returning just for the baklava!

Ordered to go. The mixed grill meat platter was delicious. The lahmacun was fresh and very tasty…read more Turkish bread was freshly baked and yummy. The grape leaves (pictured) tasted like they came out of a can, absolute mush and tasteless. Took one bite and threw them away. The rice that came with the meat platter was sticky and wasn't that nice, I was expecting something more like basmati. Overall we were satisfied and happy with what we ordered.

You can easily order the day before which is what I did this time. Ordered a flavor of the month which was a S'mores flavor and the newest gluten free raspberry lemon flavor. Easy. Paid online and picked up the next day. It's easy to park and get into the building. It's a cute little shoppe. Lots of party favors and little gifts. They have the different styles on display right inside the door. Took it to the birthday party that evening and enjoyed it. Forgot to get a picture of the cake, but they are always picture perfect. It was delicious. The icing is so rich and one of the best parts. I know its a chain, but really it's delicious and hard to beat. My personal favorite is still the lemon blueberry which is seasonal.

It's family restaurant status continues making them a worthwhile option if you are looking for a solid meal at a reasonable price. Our favorite is to have their "four square" breakfast v(for dinner, of course), where you get bro select your four favorite breakfast items to build a custom meal. The pancakes and eggs are always spot on and delicious. Also with checking out is their smash burger Monday night: a well-prepared hamburger and a side for a great price. Pie is not usually my thing, but when I am done n the mood, Bakers Square is a first thought. Many options, all good, and the occasional limited time pies to expand your sweet tooth horizons. Things to know: * Located just a couple of blocks off of I-35/80 at University Avenue on the west side of town. * Free drink refills and, if you're polite when you ask, you can take your drink to go.

I got maple long john which is usually my fav but was a little let down I felt like the frosting was a little thin and bland. My husband got a mystery say old donut box.

He also got a sausage cheese jalapeño breakfast sandwich and it was comically large with like 5 or 6 patties in it. You could get one and share with at least two or three people for sure.
