As an out-of-towner, I've visited Starlings Coffee, Kitchen, & Bakehouse on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed with the quality of the food and the cheerfulness of the employees. Do not miss out on a true original-- their homemade pop tarts, which come in a dizzying array of flavor combinations. The Caramel Banana French Toast, generously sprinkled with toasted walnuts, also comes highly recommended. If you find yourself in Westminster wanting a satisfying (and filling) breakfast or lunch experience, there's really only one choice, and that's Starlings.

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.

JeannieBird is honestly worth a drive out to Westminster. We've been here a couple times, and it's…read morejust a delight. There's no better word to describe the experience. It's a fairly small cafe with excellent food choices. This isn't a fancy coffee experience, but they do have all you can drink when dining in. JeannieBird is often very busy, but they move through the line quickly. Seating can be challenging, but folks who are leaving aren't dillydallying and will offer you their spots. Husband got a biscuit sandwich and loved it. I got an everything croissant with feta and spinach. And we split a monkeybread. Everything is so, so yummy. Parking is pretty easy, with a small lot beside the building. Free parking Sundays. What sets this place apart, though, is the owner and staff. The owner pops around to each table to chat. Sure, he asks how the food is, but then he stays to connect -- and it feels sincere. This place is a rate gem.

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.

It was late morning so a lot of the baked goods were low. I chose after minutes of wanting what I wanted to decide on trying the chocolate berry bread pudding. I got a small iced PSL w/oatmilk and light ice. There was a very steady flow of customers. The warmed up bread pudding came out within reason but my psl to an unusual time to get to me. I honestly believe they skipped over my ticket as folks coming well after me receives their orders and left. A few minutes of house cleaning (wiping tables) was needed. Ive never been in here feeling like it was trashy and cluted but today it felt a little as such. I was satisified with my PSL and bread pudding. I left with goodness but wish I could have had my wrap.

I was visiting my mom in Northwestern Baltimore in mid October, and for some reason thought it would be better to go apple picking in Northern Virginia or PA. However, most places were concentrating on pumpkins, and we were about to leave empty handed. On the last day Of our trip I tried Baughet's, and I am so glad I did. Even though it was very busy, they had people helping w traffic and everything was moving smoothly. The ticket counter people were very helpful and nice. We got onto the apple picking tractor without a wait. There were many apples of several varieties and they were delicious. Much better than from a supermarket. We walked around the orchard to enjoy beautiful views. We then enjoyed hot cider and Apple fritters at their farmer market, and I bought a few things as well. My son enjoyed a playground and a lunch. They had quality live music. Of course it helped that the weather cooperated. They also have a petting zoo, but we did not have enough time to visit it. I can't wait to return in the summer. Definitely worth a trip.

We met with Pastry Chef Michael Markwitz at his (very nice) home to go over our wedding cake selections. We were served full-sized slices of his incredibly delicious moist cakes in his dining room, on Lenox china with a freshly brewed pot of coffee. HUGE slices of delicious cake - so you can taste each one several times as you're narrowing down what you want. He combines whatever filling you want with whatever kind of cake you want, so again - big slices of fresh delicious cake really help when you're mixing stuff up to make an educated decision. He helped us select the number of tiers we wanted and even suggested keeping the cake shorter and offered to make a couple of cakes on the side to save money. Not sheet cakes, the same awesome round cakes with fabulous fillings. The cake is cut and served in the back anyway, so no one would notice either way and the quality of the cake is identical. Since we're having a backyard wedding, he even gave us tons of detail on how to cut and serve the cake and drew me a little diagram as well (there is an art to cutting a huge wedding cake without butchering it and I'm grateful he took the time to explain.) We have three tiers and he doesn't charge any extra if we wanted to do all three tiers with different cake flavors and fillings. The Cakes: Red Velvet with cream cheese frosting - the cake and icing were dense and delicious without the cloying sugary sweetness or unsweetened butter greasiness of a lot of other bakeries' cakes and icings. Some kind of white italian cream cake with a layer of Swiss imported seedless raspberry marmalade and a second layer of custard creamy goodness. Dense and delicious lemon cake with raspberry cream - we went with this one. Again, not too sweet, not TOO dense - just right. The chocolate - holy goodness. There was some kind of incredible ganache filling in there that was to die for. He made another cake with crushed peanut butter cups in the filling - this was my fiance's fave and it was delicious as well. Believe it or not, I am not a huge fan of cake overall, but you can't NOT love this guy's cakes. They are fabulous and they are beautifully decorated. He spent well over an hour with us at 7:00pm on a weeknight to accommodate our work schedules. He scrolled through endless pictures of cakes he had decorated so we could see some examples and he made some great recommendations. He let us try samples of fondant even though the cake we were selecting was iced with buttercream. It was light and soft and tasted almost like marshmallow. Not at all what I expected fondant to taste like, but he makes his own and it is delicious. When I went off on a holy-crap-i-never-even-thought-of-that-what-an-awesome-looking-cake tangent, he brought me back to my original vision for a simple, plain, classic wedding cake, even though the other option that caught my fancy would have cost a significant amount of money and truly would have been an impulse-buy. The man is a professional. Damn it I love independent businesses who haven't gotten so big and self-important that they forget about their customers. What a drastic difference between a tasting in the home of someone who loves what they do, and an impersonal tasting at a busy bakery that barely gives a crap about you and expects a healthy deposit in advance before they do you the huge favor of serving you silver-dollar sized stale morsels of inferior cake. He takes consultations by appointment only, so you'll want to plan in advance if you need a cake. His site has a lot of great pictures as well. I highly, highly recommend Michael and his wonderful cakes. We drove an hour to get to our tasting and it was so worth it. He is very friendly, very knowledgeable and very interested in making sure you get exactly what you want for a fair price. It was a great experience and a fabulous reminder of why I love shopping small, independent operations most of all.

He gave us lots of different options to choose from as far as flavors and decorations. He also suggested that we have one of our flavors on a sheet cake that guests never see to save money, which we did. I've been to a lot of weddings where cake slices are left abandoned on the table, there is lots of cake leftover, etc. Our wedding was NOT like that at all. Everyone was talking about the cake and there was hardly any left! We had Italian Creme Cake w/Chocolate Ganache & Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Red Velvet w/Bourbon Cream Cheese Frosting, and Italian Creme Cake with Vanilla Pudding & Swiss Raspberry. All were amazing, but if I had to choose my favorite it would be the Reese's peanut butter cake! The cake looked and tasted wonderful! Seriously, this was one of those wedding vendors that just blew me away. I expected the cake to look and taste good, but it was AMAZING!

We ended up picking a basket of our own strawberries. The lady who rang us up in the market and explained the process was friendly and helpful. The gentleman who drove the tractor to and from the field did a great job explaining the picking process and which strawberries to pick or not to pick. We never had to wait more than a few minutes to take the tractor to and from. Afterwards we visited the petting zoo and fed the animals two bags of food which we purchased from the market. They were sooo cute! The one goat was so funny and his name should be "Shadow" since he followed us around the whole time! He can be seen in our pic feeding the duck. He was so funny! The animals were all friendly and super cute to hang out with for a bit. Feeding the goats up on the structure via conveyorbelt was so fun and entertaining!
