My wife was having a milestone birthday, (we will leave the number out of this), and wanted to get…read moreher a special cake. Not a wholesale or grocery store cake this time. We ordered a Chocolate chip Mousse Cake with added decorations on top. Their online ordering was super easy, as was the pickup. You can pick tour time, but they say you can come earlier or later as long as they're open. Took a little stress away knowing this. The cake was a hit! Omg...so good. Everyone agreed it was phenomenal. Great cake, filling, frosting and the cookies on top were excellent too. I'll say that this was the best bakery cake we've had since Beaverton Bakery closed. If you live around Hillsboro, they are worth the drive in and do an amazing job!

I really hate leaving negative reviews for small businesses, especially because I had previously…read morebeen a supporter of this bakery, but after giving them an opportunity to address this privately and receiving no response, I feel like I need to share my experience. I preordered a two-tier lemon cake for my daughter's baby shower for $139, along with two dozen cookies for another $80. Just 15 minutes before I was supposed to pick up the order, the bakery called to tell me that a mistake had been made and they had made the wrong kind of cake. They offered me several alternatives, but with a baby shower about to happen, I obviously didn't have much choice but to accept what was available. What surprised me most at the time was that there was no real apology and no offer to discount the cake despite the mistake. The cake looked nice on the outside, but when we cut into it at the shower, we discovered that the top tier was lemon and the bottom tier was chocolate. The chocolate cake was good, but unfortunately the lemon cake was very dry. The cookies we ordered as party favors were good, so this isn't a complaint about everything we received. What was especially disappointing was having approximately 25 guests at the shower asking about the cake and knowing that I couldn't honestly recommend a bakery I had previously spoken highly of. Afterward, rather than immediately posting a negative review, I took the time to write the owner a letter explaining what had happened and how disappointed I was. I felt that some acknowledgment, apology, or partial refund/discount on the cake would have been appropriate. I never received a response. Mistakes happen, and I absolutely understand that. What determines whether I continue supporting a business is how those mistakes are handled. A last-minute error with an expensive cake for an important event was disappointing; receiving no response when I reached out privately afterward was even more so. Unfortunately, after this experience, I can't recommend this bakery or feel comfortable ordering another special-occasion cake from them.

Just the perfect amount of sweetness, and I'm almost certain it had some good pinches of sea salt and cinnamon in it as well. On another impressive note, the cake wasn't crumbly at all, meaning all those delicious bites made it to my mouth:). 2026 #8

Since the loss of Lovejoys we've been trying different tea places around the area but Skywater is…read morethe best one we've tried so far. There's nice ambience, a large tea selection, wonderful tea sandwiches that were traditional flavors but impeccably done with soft milk bread and the best mayos (dukes, Kewpie). The scones were nice, esp the summer menu peach ones, the clotted cream is good and they make it there. The Oreo cheesecakes were so unusually delicious, I was so surprised and delighted by how good they were and wish I had gotten the recipe. My favorite treat tho was the nectarine panna cotta we were served while we waited for our tea. Our host was friendly, knowledgeable, and seemed to really care about the details of afternoon tea.

The tea service is beautifully presented, with lovely tiered trays of savory bites, sweets, and pastries that make the whole afternoon feel like a real occasion. What stood out most was how relaxing and elegant the experience felt without ever seeming stiff or overly formal. The teas were excellent, and the whole service invited you to slow down and enjoy yourself. It's the kind of place that makes you want to linger, talk a little longer, and order one more pot of tea. There's a charm to Skywater that is hard to fake. It feels welcoming, peaceful, and carefully done in all the right ways. For a special outing, a celebration, or just a beautiful afternoon treat, their high tea is a delight. Five stars.

After grabbing a cheesesteak from East Coast Eddie's, I can definitely say I love them! You get service with a smile and quick too. I ordered the original with provolone, came with fries. The sandwich itself was sizable, lots and lots of meat, peppers, onions and melty cheese. The meat was seasoned perfectly, and tender with crispy edges. Yummers!! The pile of fries was enormous! I normally don't like thick cut fries. These were great --- fully cooked through with a good crunch outside and good potato flavor throughout. They appeared to be hand cut. Right amount of salt, not greasy. In fact, I took half home and air fried them for lunch the next day. Very little oil on the surface and crisped up nicely. Judging by the other reviews, Eddie's is apparently the real deal and high quality for a cheesesteak. All I know is this food was really good and reasonably priced. I am going back whenever I get the craving!
