    I am compelled to drop a review for Erin Ann's because I cannot believe they don't have a million…read moreraving reviews here on Yelp. We've been several times and the owners & staff are great folks delivering a very welcoming and pleasant experience on every visit. It's a cute, quaint spot in downtown Sylvania with a great vibe. Erin Ann's is a much-needed place for allergen friendly sweets & treats. Folks who need GF and/or DF, this is the spot! The coconut milk-based ice cream is superb to the point that you would never know it's coconut. They always have rotating flavors and they are all unique and tasty. Amongst others, I loved the maple-bacon, which was delicious. Their HOMEMADE (!!) gluten free bagels are without a doubt the best GF bagels I've ever had. They are dense and flavorful and ready to handle whatever you throw on top. We've started ordering them by the pack to stock our freezer at home (we don't live nearby). I highly recommend the avocado & egg bagel sandwich, served open-faced, and absolutely loaded on both halves with savory avocado mash, sliced hard boiled egg, and everything seasoning...get it on the 'everything' bagel and you won't be disappointed; very filling...and addicting. Honestly, this is the menu item that keeps bringing our whole family back, even with all the amazing sweet treats on the menu. Juices and smoothies are outstanding. I've tried the Green Monster and Fall Harvest juices, and both are packed with goodness and flavor. Healthiness delivered in a delicious drink. On the treat side, I highly recommend the Cashew Chocolate Protein bites, GF pretzels, brownies, and these Snickers-like bars that taste just like their namesake (I can't recall what Erin Ann's calls their version though - I just know they are phenomenal). Give this spot a try, especially if you need GF items or non-dairy ice cream. You won't be disappointed.

    The first time I went here I got the coffee and it wasn't the best. That was years ago so it could…read morehave changed by now! Otherwise I love that this place is local, natural, and uses the ingredients that it does! The smoothie is delectable as I'm sure everything else is. They have such a nice selection of all things delicious from little snacks to sandwiches and everything in between. The prices are very high but none of the menu items have ever disappointed. LOVE THIS PLACE.

    I had not been in fifteen years but was visiting town and wanted to revisit my childhood. This was…read moreon a relatively cool day in April so no crowd. The soft serve is fairly average but the experience is elevated by the pricing - I got a sundae, cone, and two bottles of water for $9. This is unfathomable to me in 2026, particularly with the size of a small cone for $2.60. It just feels like a throwback. Friendly teenagers working collecting tips for college, cash only (I'm sure bad for many but nostalgic for me), the hand drawn signs. I just really enjoyed it. As I did back when I was in high school 25 years ago.

    A Toledo classic! I've been going since I was a kid…read more The ice cream is very good but not exceptional. Maybe 4 stars for ice cream of this style (soft serve), and it doesn't really compare to ice cream like Jeni's or Handel's, it's a different category. The lines can be long, and they're cash only. But once you get to the front of the line, the service is always friendly. But the art is amazing. All the hand-drawn pictures to go with the sundaes and the creative sundae names and toppings/mix-ins. Some of the sundaes are the same ones they served 30 years ago, others are new. The portions are huge. If I recall correctly, for a large cone they take it all the way down to the bottom of the machine (although I've never ordered one myself!) The cake sundaes are quart size. I usually go with a small or junior sundae and it's plenty. It's my go-to stop on the way home from Centennial Quarry in the summer, and one of the places that I take friends from out of town to give them a taste of Toledo culture. I hope they keep going for many more decades!

I left extremely pleased with my purchase, and everyone who enjoyed the product loved it as well. The staff was amazing knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely friendly. While chatting with them, I learned the business is still family-owned, which made the experience even better. I will definitely be back and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for great products and outstanding service.

Told them I had to order 5 cakes for my daughters quinceañera Had to go up there numerous times to get the information correct as they didn't know what a quinceañera was and I explained to several different people what it was. The day of the event I called to go get all 5 of my cakes. They said they were not all done and needed an hour. I told them I had a ceremony and would be up there after. They closed before I got there and my daughter didn't have here cakes! Wasted all $400 They never apologized just said I should have known when they closed hours are listed on website and door. I mean how are you a bakery and don't know what a quinceañera is? I gave them a chance bc I figured maybe it was just one worker that was rude but it actually was all of them!
