They serve the basics well coffee, tea, and a solid mix of small bites, sweets, and made to order sandwiches that actually hit. The space works for whatever you need that day. You can pull up with your laptop and get work done, or just sit back and people watch without feeling rushed. It is family friendly but still calm enough if you are trying to focus. Overall, it is a cozy, reliable spot that does not try too hard but still delivers.

Yes. Indeed I am. Any regrets? Zero. Aysha was communicative and helpful and made the most gorgeous cupcakes. Even better, they were exceptionally good!

I just love this spot. I've been coming here over the years to get my fill of Pennsylvania Dutch…read moretreats, which allows me to get from DC without having to drive all the way to Pennsylvania. This spot has so many wonderful food stands. Upon walking in, you can pick up a cart to explore all of the stands. My kids love this place as much as me since you can find so much variety. Our first stop is the very busy Amish soft pretzel stand. My kids love the standard soft pretzel dipped in melted butter and topped with rock salt. My personal favorite are the stuffed soft pretzels like the pretzels stuffed with roast beef and cooper sharp cheddar. Nothing tastes better! There are also many other stands that offer fresh produce, meats, cheeses and baked goods. I particularly like Bieler's Donuts, the same place you'll find packed lines in Philadelphia right here. It's such a fun place and my kids love it. But most importantly, this is dad's spot!

In the most visually-exciting sequence of Director/Writer Jalmari Helander's 2025 film Sisu: Road…read moreto Revenge, three Soviet Ilyushin II-2 Shturmovik ground-attack planes attempt to bring down the KraZ-214 armored, military-transport truck driven by the hero who single-handedly turned the tide for the Finns in the earlier film and in the sequel, set in 1946. Using his wits, his ingenuity, and unparalleled levels of skill and perseverance, Aatami Korpi, who earns the moniker of "the man who cannot die," escapes not just bombs and machine gun fire but a plane deployed as a missile. And yet, the most moving moment of the film is not found in one of its many arresting action sequences but in a single line of dialogue, spoken by one of six Finnish men, who, along with one teenager and one boy, carrying hatchets, axes, and tools, interrupts the battle-finished Korpi's work on his new home to ask in Finnish, subtitled in English, "We thought you might need some help?" Speechless and shaking with relief and joy, Korpi watches the strangers get to work on his roof, walls, and foundation. That level of kindness, assistance, delight, joy, skill, and service can be seen in every vendor at the Dutch Country Market Thursdays through Saturdays at 9701 Fort Meade Rd in Laurel, MD. Whether it is homemade pretzels, pasta salads, chili, produce, meats, cheeses, popcorn, donuts, or varieties of dark chocolate, candy, or fudge you seek, you will find plenty to whet your appetite. Mind you, most, if not all, of everything contains zero preservatives. Our advice is to buy what you can enjoy soon or share your purchases with company before it's too late.

Since I was on the go, I decided to go with the ube latte. The staff at the register was very helpful in explaining their different offerings. My latte was great but it did not come with the whipped cream that was in the picture on their menu. When I asked to have whipped cream, only a light topping was added and I was given back the same flat lid instead of the domed lid that was in the photos. The overall taste of the drink was great but I do wish the presentation was more like their promotional photos. However, I would return to try their ice cream and other offerings.

The donuts and butter pound cake are what I often go for here. Donuts are made fresh, on-site, as are their other baked goods. You know these donuts are fresh because they only last a day or so before they turn stale. What I like about this bakery is they feature seasonal donuts that are very delicious. I've been coming to this bakery for years and they produce really delicious seasonal baked goods in the fall including seasonal pies for the holidays. As I mentioned, the donuts and butter pound cake are my favorite items. The cake, old fashioned, and crumb donuts are exceptional. When the buyer pound cake is warm and fresh there is no better pound cake experience. Overall a very good bakery that is worth the hype that is evident with the long lines. One thing to note is this bakery is inside the Dutch Farmers Market which is only open 3 days a week (Thurs-Sat) so this bakery, too, is only open Thurs-Sat. Give them a try and see for yourself.

It was the definitely the dry almost sawdust Kraft pregrated Parmesan "cheese". I thought the chicken would be grilled Pollo. It wasn't. The chicken had the texture of reconstituted freeze dried scrambled eggs. I own a food freeze dryer and I am very familiar with that texture. The yellow cheese sauce was definitely from a can.

Bakery: In response to Yelper Lani M., it's true that the pastries and bread are dry and plain, but they are supposed to be in Guatemala, Mexico, and other countries in the region. The French style pastries and bread you are used to are made with lots of butter, cream, fruit jams, and sugar glazes that make them moist, rich, and strongly flavored. In contrast, Lain American pastries tend to be made without those ingredients to create a dry texture suitable for dipping in coffee and hot chocolate. Making the pastries flavorful would clash with the hot drinks. Think your noni's biscotti and your bubbe's mandelbrot.
