My Dad purchased some sweets from Kathy Sue's Bakery. I tried a cream horn and a stuffed vanilla…read morecream donut. The donut was light with a nice texture. The white cream filling had marshmallow cream in it. This was not the typical white cream I'm used to having in a donut. The vanilla icing on top was yummy. The cream horn was OK. But again, was stuffed with a filling using marshmallow cream. Not my favorite donuts. I will have to pass next time. It wasn't quite good enough for the calorie intake.

I came across this place as they were closing and went in. Tried a few things and OMG, were they good. Had a roll with white frosting that was incredible. The chocolate chip cookie with creme in between was do die for.

Cupcakes are really good and I try to grab an assortment of when I can. The price this trip was $14.65 for 6 cupcakes and a piece of Baklava. So not bad for the gourmet little bakery. I didn't make it out of town and back on the road before that baklava was devoured. For me, it not so much about the cupcakes than it is the thoughtfulness of a fresh baked treat that you can't get everyday. I grab them as a gift for when I am traveling through. I like the new store an location. Looks good. It is a new city so I will have to go 30 mins or so out of my way but will still make the journey on occasion as a treat when coming in. I just have to avoid the bypass but maybe the shop will help bring some more business into downtown Portsmouth. Service and experience has been hit or miss for each visit or attempted visit. This was my first visit at the new shop and was ok. As a customer I just don't feel valued or anything special here. It's like the excitement of them being there too is on or off. Just some good cupcakes and treats so that can be enough. Will see how future experiences at the new location goes and looking forward to updates with any future reviews.

I have been going to 83 Sweets for 3 or 4 years and have never once had a bad experience or a bad…read morecupcake. And the cupcakes -- oh my! They are absolutely the best! Their buttercream frosting is second to none -- creamy, soft, not greasy and not gaggy-sweet. I have always found the staff (yes, even the younger ones) friendly, helpful and professional. I used to go twice a week until we moved out of the area, but now make the trip at least every month. These cupcakes store well in the fridge too, just make sure to let them come to room temp so the icing can soften. Every flavor is so good it's hard to pick a fave, but the white wedding cake and the lemon are at the top of my list. Highly recommended.

WARNING : CAUTION ADVISED When I was a child, my father let…read moreme eat an entire box of Little Debbie oatmeal cream pies to teach me a lesson. I learned that too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Once again, I am faced with this dilemma as an adult. I could eat an entire dozen of Sarah's oatmeal raisin cookies or the cowboy cookies. But I find myself in the same position as my childhood. Oh my goodness! These are the best cookies I've ever had in my life. And you can only find them at Sarah's Café and Bakery. Each cookie weighs 47 pounds and is a meal in itself. Perfect with a cup of coffee. Of course the coffee is good. My wife and I have had lunch there. The menu is vast and tasty. But ruling over all the other items on the menu are the selection of oatmeal cookies that I cannot resist. Thank you, Sarah!
