Backyard Beans is a locally owned coffee shop with several locations in the Philly suburbs. Wanting…read moreto try out a local spot, I stopped by the downtown Lansdale location when passing through the area. There is a circular ordering area with a few high top seats and adjacent tables as you enter, with additional seating in the back. Interiors are a bit utilitarian and spartan for my tastes as I prefer a space that is more warm and welcoming. The exterior mural on the side of the building did give the place a bit more character. Many of the drinks only come in one 12 ounce size, so might not be the place if you prefer larger drinks. The mocha latte I ordered was a bit bitter and not excessively sweet, but otherwise strong. Service was a bit on the slow side, but they were experiencing a bit of a morning rush, so I won't hold it against them. While it's not a place I'd venture out of my way to visit again, Backyard Beans Coffee Company seems to be a solid coffee spot for locals and offer an ample menu of food items for those seeking something to eat.

Some friends and I met for breakfast at Buttercup Bistro and had a lovely meal. They serve…read morebreakfast and lunch daily, with specials Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. It's not a large space and they don't take reservations on the weekends, so you may need to wait for a table. The parking lot is a bit of a maze and fills up quickly so be prepared to park at the church or the car wash and walk over. Our group had the avocado toast, eggs Benedict, eggs 2 ways, and buttercup blossom. Everything was delicious, well prepared, and not an overwhelming portion. Egg dishes are served with a choice of breakfast potatoes, hash brown, or fruit. The bistro was crowded and service was a bit slow, but not disruptively so. Our waitress was kind and attentive, but very busy. Overall looking forward to going back and trying some of the sweet dishes! Food: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Service: 4/5

We ordered a sheet cake for a celebration. The process was great with Dennis explaining what goes…read moreinto making the cake and butter cream icing and Liz working with us to finalize the order and decorations. The cake was one of the best we have had... ever. This was real deal butter creme icing that was not overly sweetened and had a consistency that added a dimension that showcased the cake itself. It was a hit with the entire party. We will order any pastries and cakes from Lice bakery moving forward. Lunch was also a nice experience! Wild mushroom quiche was better than any other quiche we have had and Chinatown chicken Salad was huge and tasted great!

Alice Bakery is a place where you'll find a lot of disappointment. They don't have anything in…read morestock besides stale danishes, and breakfast sandwiches are non-existent. They advertise them on their menu, but they always come up with an excuse. They either don't have anyone to make them, or the person who makes them won't be back until later, or they don't have eggs. I've also had problems with their advertisement post on instagram. They advertise specific item's on Instagram for a specific day, but when I show up, the cashier has no idea what I'm talking about. A couple months ago they were advertising house made lemonade on a specific day. I show them the post, and they say they don't sell lemonade and they weren't sure why the owner posted the video, even though my video says otherwise. They also advertise smash burgers on Sundays, but when I show up, they have every excuse imaginable for not having them. I've tried to order sticky buns, which they only have available on the weekends, but they'll have every excuse imaginable for not having them on Saturdays or Sundays. Overall, the business is clearly poorly managed. Don't waste your time visiting unless you're expecting to be disappointed.

I don't want to waste any more time on this review, but have to ask how a breakfast restaurant can absolutely ruin hash browns and serve potatoes that smell and taste like a chemistry set got spilled on the grill during the cook? The service was friendly and cheerful, if overly sanitized.
