Continuing on my list of coffee shops, I tried The Reister's Daughter in Reisterstown, MD. This…read moreplace was great. We met some friends and were able to find both parking and a table. I had a mocha latte and this Iranian Chocolate Pop-Tart thing that was awesome.... I really need to start taking pictures of my food and these places. The ambiance is that of a coffee house but this coffee house is an old historic building with natural wood floors and big windows. The layout is convenient for having a mix of seating and the volume was such that we could hear our party but not feel like we were screaming. The coffee was good. the people friendly, the snacks (ok not a meal but too much to ignore from the experience) the snacks were delightful. My wife almost ate half of my Pop-tart it was so good. Ok, this one gets a definite try, the locals seemed to like it, it was close-ish to Columbia, and worth checking out.

I had the avocado toast with a hard boiled egg...shoulda got 2 eggs. Wife got a tomato, mozzarella with prosciutto toast. All were delicious and presentation was first class.

I got maybe an almond and something else that was almost cake like inside? it was incredible. coffee was fine. we each got a seasonal drink. the iced strawberry a vanilla latte was flavorless, so either the syrup was missing or it was so subtle that my sub par taste buds missed it. we also got an iced blueberry maple latte, which was fine. I will be back for that oreo donut!

Its a wide variety of food and Asian boba teas. I was greeted, explained the tea meny and had my order taken. The price is within reason. There are a few seats inside and seemingly cluttered wall of menu type items but organized. I chose a non dairy tea; favored green tea with added boba. Within a decent time my drink was provided.

The kind staff make a huge difference.
