I have purchased delicious bakery items at Sweet Tooth Bakery previously. So, they were my "go to"…read morewhen I needed a whole cake right away for a family to enjoy after a dear friend's visitation. Sweet Tooth Bakery had a beautiful, vanilla three-layered cake already created and for sale. But, it had sprinkles decorating it, like a birthday cake. Sweet Tooth Bakery was so nice and closely listened as I told them of my dilemma. They meticulously removed the sprinkles, which made the cake perfect for a more solemn occasion. I was delighted. Sweet Tooth Bakery exceeded my expectations. i will definitely be back to purchase bakery goods again. You should see the variety of delicious goods to tempt your palet.

I got the vanilla custard, my best description of how it tasted would be whipped cream flavor w ice cream/yogurt texture. My wife got the strawberry mango Ice. It was around $7 for both which is similar to competitor prices. There were no tables on-site at this time. This is a low cost dessert option that should be explored while around town.

I came in twice one morning and while the place was bustling, the owner was incredibly welcoming while chatting with me and the espresso drinks and baked goods such as the peach scone were all outstanding.

Inside, the ambiance is calm and relaxed, with hip jazz playing softly in the background. There's a mix of regular seating and a small bar section, plus a pleasant sitting area that should be great when the weather is nice. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in, and they were genuinely helpful with recommendations--particularly when I was deciding between drink options. I ended up with an egg and cheese sandwich on a Kaiser roll that came out steaming hot: the roll was light and fluffy, and the whole sandwich was simple but really well done. I also had a shot of espresso that arrived in a very nice presentation on a wooden board, paired with a side of sparkling water, which was a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel a bit special. On their recommendation I tried the honey lavender latte made with local spicy honey; it was unique, flavorful, and not something you see everywhere. Overall, Bean Bar feels like a low-key, well-put-together café with good parking, a relaxed vibe, kind staff, and drinks and food that show real care.

When you walk in there is a wide assortment of fudge and other candies behind the counter and on country themed displays throughout the small shop.

Nothing like a fresh cone to hold your ice cream. Highly recommend.

It's nice inside for the most part with paintings on the wall which are for sale. It was, however, pretty cold. The temperature read 63° on the thermostat. Service was good but I was a little surprised that we had to ask for salt and pepper which is typically expected to be on a table when you sit down. Our breakfasts were good though and I'm definitely impressed with their eggs. Way too many restaurants over cook scrambled eggs but FE Pops nailed it. Fluffy and not dry. The bacon was perfect too but I wasn't too impressed with the sausage patties. It sort of had the "Brown and Serve" flavor. No big deal though. Grits only come with cheese which was a little disappointing but they were still good. Potato home fries were good. Definitely would come back here.

The fried chicken was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The macaroni and cheese was creamy and comforting, and the fried okra had just the right amount of crunch. We also enjoyed biscuits, collard greens, peas, cornbread, and washed it all down with some of the most delicious sweet tea around. And don't even think about skipping dessert because the banana pudding was absolutely worth saving room for! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Their Southern hospitality added even more to the experience. There were plenty of other options on the buffet, but these were the dishes that won us over that day. If you're craving authentic Southern cooking served buffet-style in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Bazen's is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back!

Beautiful stylish design, plenty of seating available in the shade, fun to-go cups. The pros end there. The lady at the cashier could not explain what the difference is between their latte and cappuccino (I had to ask because different coffee shops have their own interpretation of each). So she asked her colleague to explain. Then she thought that "cappuccino and double espresso" meant that there will be 2 shots going into the said cappuccino. Needless to say the coffee was really bad. No foam whatsoever in cappuccino and tasted badly. Adding half and half didn't help.
