    Flavoured Latte
    Matt B.

    Good cafe brunch spot! I went here for a casual meal into this small shop. There are tables for small groups both inside and outside. The staff there seemed like a family that was very friendly and welcoming. The sandwich was satisfying and the coffee was superb. They even gave me a complimentary cookie to go with the coffee. I really enjoyed it and would definitely at least go back for the coffee to try again.

    Coffee Shop No. 500 The Perfect Blend Cafe Fredrick, MD April 18, 2025 I had limited time and The Perfect Blend was two blocks out of my way which means I would be adding four extra blocks to my trip. I know it doesn't sound like much but when you are cramming multiple cortados into a couple of hours the caffeine and the steps add up quickly. Thankfully, as I scrolled through The Perfect Blend's Google reviews I noticed they used Julius Meinl Coffee. Every cafe I've visited that uses Julius Meinl Coffee serves delicious espresso drinks. I knew I had to make the journey. When I arrived at The Perfect Blend I noticed they were only a few minutes away from closing up shop. I poked my head in and asked if they were still serving espresso drinks. The gentleman at the counter smiled broadly and said, "Of course. Come in and enjoy." The barista created an extraordinary cortado then invited me to stay and enjoy the shop even though they were about to close. The Perfect Blend makes its home on the first floor of the Francis Key Scott Apartments located in a national historic district. I enjoyed people watching and feeling thankful for the lovely couple who made feel at home as I sipped on a perfectly crafted cortado. Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

    Ham egg and cheese muffin

    This place is on the bottom of an office building so you wouldn't think it's good but it's a hidden gem. I got a ham egg and cheese English muffin with a coffee and it was great. From the service I got going in to me eating the food everything was great. This is definitely a great mom and pops shop that I will be returning to.

    We were on the highway, Yelped lunch, and found this place. It's very convenient- right around the corner from the parking garage. It took us a second to find the entrance- it's one of several places inside the old Francis Scott Key Hotel. Seating is at a premium in the actual cafe, but there are several more tables in the lovely and spacious air-conditioned lobby. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and got our food out licketty-split. I ordered the California Turkey Club as a wrap in a tossed red pepper tortilla. It was delicious, with the meat, cheese, and lettuce in just the right proportions, and came with a wedge of orange which was a nice touch. Anywhere else I would have given the sandwich 10/10, but here it suffered from comparison to my Bride's sandwich. She got the Turkey Pesto Panini with Avocado. The sandwich was immense! My darling Bride literally chortled and clapped her hands in delight. I was hoping I would have to help her finish it, but no dice- one bite was what I got. I wholeheartedly concur with her assessment- "they got the flavour balance *perfect* and the cheese pull was like something out of a dream." We may stop here again on the trip home just for one of those to call my own. We both made our sandwiches into lunch combos- for $2.99 you get a bag of chips and a beverage. We opted for a coffee and a can of Dr. Pepper. When the lady asked me how I take my coffee, I said "seriously. Very seriously." I needn't have worried- it was an amazing cup! Turns out it's Julius Meinl, and they import it all the way from Vienna. I ended up buying a kilo bag to take home. It cost more than lunch, and I'm not even sorry. Our lunch came to $30 before tip, and was worth every penny. Highly recommended!

    Love this little shop! The bacon egg and cheese on English muffin was so good! We got to pick which type of cheese we wanted, and they used real egg & bacon - yum! The shop is very small, but very cute, and the service was very quick at 10AM on a Monday! We will be back!

    My friend and I walked in and immediately felt so welcome. I ordered a drink first and went back up later for a sandwich, and the barista remembered my name. It wasn't only me, but every customer that I watched while I was there was treated like family. Everything we ordered was amazing. My friend would recommend the piña colada smoothie and I would recommend the chicken caesar wrap! (Forgot to take pics sorry...)

    Before going, I read all the reviews saying they had great breakfast sandwiches and I was not disappointed. I ordered online for an easy experience and my food is ready as soon as I got there I got a sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on a croissant and added avocado-- which was totally worth it! They add a ton of avocado. The sandwich was delicious and it was still warm when I picked it up. I love how they fried the egg. It was almost over medium. I also got a large iced latte with lavender. I like how on their online ordering system, you can write comments, so I was able to specify the amount of lavender syrup I wanted. They finished off my drink and added ice when I got there to ensure the ice didn't melt and water down the drink while they're waiting for me to arrive. Would highly recommend getting food to go from here! They have a small seating area and it's a cute ambience. There was someone playing music on the piano in there. On a nice day, you could also easily find a place to eat your food outside along the creek!

    On a super busy Saturday morning, we were thrilled to find ourselves in front of The Perfect Blend Cafe and we were able to stop in get some hot bevs and sit for a minute. The woman working was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The hot chocolate was wonderful (and you can order "kid temp" to get it drink-able) with whip cream. The menu looked tasty, so we may visit for a snack next time we're in town.

    This is my favorite coffee shop/cafe in Frederick. They have a lot of flavored latte options which I love--the sea salt caramel and honey caramel are too of my favorites. And I'm obsessed with the veggie bagel (pictured). It's SO good. I haven't tried their other options bc I love this sandwich so much, but I've heard their other food is also great! There's limited seating but more tables/chairs in the hallway and outside. The staff are so nice and the service is quick.

(Pardon the pics, it's difficult to take nice pics of Smash Burgers). . Where I am: @backslashburger . Location Reviewed: 526 N Market St., Fredrick M.D. inside of @oldemotherbrewing . Items Reviewed: STAMP!! Their Peter Piper Burger ($13.21 for 2 smash beef patties with roasted poblano cream cheese, hot pickled cherry peppers, & bourbon molasses in a potato roll). Crisp edges on these burgers, nice & meaty, juicy on the inside, sweet, smoky, & cheesy!! STAMP!! Their Backslash Burger ($13.21 for 2 onion infused, mustard seared smash patties with house made pickles, & Backslash sauce). Believe it or not, this burger wasn't too oniony!! The Backslash sauce is tangy, & creamy, & the burgers were tasty!! DELICIOUS. Their She's My Cherry Burger ($13.21 for 2 smashed beef patties, herb goat cheese, & a sour cherry jam). This was different, sweet, but savory, & you HAVE to like goat cheese with this one!! NAH! There I Can't Feel My Face Burger ($13.21 for 2 smashed beef patties, ghost pepper sauce, & candied jalapenos). Now for ME...one bite, & my face literally felt like it was ON FIRE!! But if you like that kind of heat then STAMP this burger...it's made for YOU! STAMP!! Their Old Bay Fries ($4.72 with Backslash sauce, & house made ranch). Their Ranch sauce is house made (STAMP...they are now selling bottles of it), & the fries stayed crispy!! STAMP!! Their Beer Battered Onion Rings (house cut, & battered $5.66).

Thankfully, my server did allow me to substitute the sesame chicken into my Cobb salad, and that was actually a great addition. The frustrating part was that after we had already finished our meals and were ready to leave, my server came back and told me she had been mistaken and that they did, in fact, have kombucha available. At that point it was too late, and unfortunately there wasn't any offer made to make up for the inconvenience. Another disappointment was learning that The Orchard does not offer any type of military appreciation or support. In a community with many veterans and military families, that was something I noticed and found disappointing. Many other local businesses make an effort to show appreciation, and that kind of support goes a long way for those who have served and for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. The food was good, but with so many other options in Frederick that offer great food while also making customers and the community feel valued, I don't think I'll be returning. A business's connection to its community matters, and supporting those who have served is something I personally look for when deciding where to spend my money.
