Bakehouse is hands down one of the best bakeries in Frederick. Everything is incredibly fresh,…read morebeautifully made, and absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality in their breads and pastries -- flaky, buttery croissants, perfectly balanced sweets, and savory options that are just as impressive. Nothing feels mass-produced; it all tastes thoughtfully crafted and homemade. They open early and close once they sell out, which says a lot about how popular they are. If you want the best selection, definitely plan to arrive right when they open. Be prepared for a long line -- but don't let that discourage you. The line moves fairly quickly, and the quality is 100% worth the wait. The staff is friendly and efficient, even during busy times. Overall, an amazing local bakery that lives up to the hype. I'll definitely be coming back again and again!

Simon's has been part of my life since they had a location at Loch Raven and Cold Spring in NE…read moreBaltimore when I was young. Before it was Simon's the Otterbein's name was over the storefront. They moved to Cranbrook a long time ago and at least two generations of Simon's were keeping up shop. Legend has it that Mr Simon pretty much lived in the place!! Well, the Simon family sold the business about a year ago to a Latino family. They are great folks and quick to offer a happy greeting upon entering the shop. Their famed sugar cookies dominate the display cases behind the counter. My mission this morning was to acquire two parcels of a deeply personal culinary weakness: DONUTS! Made from scratch donuts. Far better than Krispy and gas station or c-store donuts. At 1.50 each, you can't beat it as far as flavor and quality go. My second visit in about a month. I'll try to make it more frequently, but, you know, donuts... It's easy to stumble...

Wow, this is such a cool place to visit! It's a series of connected buildings which includes an…read moreAmish food court (the pretzels are yummy!), featuring cheese, meats, snacks, coffee, sandwiches and produce, a home decor store and a furniture store. Each time I visit, I see something new. I love the display of birdhouses, wind chimes and chairs along the front. It's a must visit if you're in the area.

I appreciate the non dairy milk options: soy, oat, almond, coconut milks. Love it.

I've been a longtime customer of Jacquelyn's Bakery and have always believed in supporting local…read morebusinesses. Even when something wasn't to my taste, I'd come back and try something else--because that's what supporting small businesses looks like. I want local shops to thrive, not get swallowed up by big-box stores. That said, I was genuinely disappointed after seeing Jacquelyn's recent Facebook post. Everyone is entitled to personal opinions, but using a business platform to label people as "dangerous" and "unsafe" simply for having different views isn't community-building--it's divisive, and it's bad for business. Profiling customers and publicly signaling who is "acceptable" to walk through your door is not how you grow or sustain a welcoming business. As a result, I won't be spending my money here anymore, and I won't be recommending it to others. If the energy spent dividing the community were redirected into improving product quality--like making cakes that are actually moist and buttercream that doesn't resemble Play-Doh--it might do more good for the business than turning customers away. Supporting local businesses should feel inclusive, not conditional.

I'd known of Jacquelyn's for several years, yet had never gone in as we live about 14 miles away…read more We had our 2 yound granddaughters and decided to procure ffor them (and us!) a little treat. Goodies abound,cand there is a variety of caffeinated beverages as well as a number of tables. One in front seats 2 and is in a little nook, but was occupied. There are also tables in the rear of the store. Jacquelyn was working alone and was most affable and accommodating. We bought a bunch of things, including for later that day and the next. I'd highly recommend this for anyone with a sweet tooth, any coffee lover, and anyone fancying some gustatory delight!

I have been in this diminutive establishment twice and have found it a great place to get gourmet…read morecupcakes. On our last stop, we tried the Cinnamon Roll Cupcake, the S'mores Cupcake and the Kitchen Sink Cupcake. All were amazing, especially the loaded Kitchen Sink variety. Their prices are fair ($3 - $4 per cupcake) and the people attending the store have been pleasant on each of our stops. There is no place to sit and I did not see that they offered hot beverages. So it is strictly a place to pick up your treats and go. The location is a little tricky. The only reason we found it the first time we stopped was due to the fact that we were moving between Chick-fil-A and Starbucks. Otherwise, it's tucked away a little bit and not easy to notice on a casual stop when visiting the establishments that comprise the major attractions at this exit (fast food and gas). But it's worth the stop if you know it's there.

If you go in their shop any given day you are sure to find delightful treats. For special occasions, they can't be beat. They made sure to ask questions for the birthday cupcake order that I placed that I had not even considered when I initially made the inquiry. Cupcakes were made exactly as requested and promptly provided at the designated time in quality containers that kept them intact during transit with no concerns of tipping or smooshing. We will absolutely be ordering here for any other upcoming special occasion.

I've been coming to JeannieBird for a number of years, spanning back to when the dearly departed…read moreJeannie was still running the business. It's not only a joy to see the business still enjoying good success, but to also taste the enhanced skill of the bakers here. Make no doubt about it, the croissant here are authentic and delicious. Just the right amount of butter to bring out their savory character, with just a kiss of natural sweetness. The ham and Gruyère is an absolute pleasure. They have actual content; not just a tease of baked in ingredients. The financier were also perfect! I'm very much looking forward to seeing any additional Parisian pastries added to their counter. The traditional stars of their menu remain outstanding: the iced tea and sweet potato biscuits. While JeannieBird isn't always on my way to my usual destinations, this business is always worth a special trip.

But most importantly, the cake cracked. I'm not sure what went wrong but by the time our reception started the icing was full of cracks and we had to cut it right at the beginning instead of when we'd planned to avoid the cake collapsing completely. I would not recommend ordering a cake for anything important from this place.
