They have lots of options and make baskets of candy and chocolate covered confections. I'd lose my paycheck if I lived close by.

I love the chocolate and ice cream here. However, the service is not good! I took my children here,…read moreand the service was even worse. Usually, I would like a smile, or even a "welcome" because these people are forced to! But these servers? NOTHING. Not even when you say thank you! Don't expect a you're welcome. But, aside from that, this is definitely the place to go to if you are looking for a sweet treat. Have fun!

Also, I really liked the Signature Assortment and the Deluxe Box of Goodies, I had to bring those home before leaving town. I highly recommend this shop! I was surprised to see some of the other reviews about staff members, my experience was fine and the few questions that I had were answered. As soon as it's not 110+ in PHX, I'll be getting candy shipped here and I plan on ordering holiday gift baskets as well.

The customer service here is really lacking. There were 2 other customers when I walked in. I was…read morenot greeted at all. There were 2 employees, one older one who was wrapping a basket, and a young one who was clearly friends with the person she was helping. I waited while she chatted with her friend for a long time, not even taking her order, or acknowledging me. The customer saw me standing there and finally told the employee to do her order because I was waiting. While the older employee was wrapping the basker her friend walked in. She was so excited to see her that she walked over to her and just started chatting. I was clearly next, but she ignored me. What was that about? The. younger employee finally helped me, but was not very friendly. I guess you have to be a friend or a regular to get good service. Even though your candy is good, the customer service is not. This is not the first time this has happened. If you go there, you have to be prepared to spend extra time while the employees and customers chit chat. No thank you. I'll go somewhere else, from now on.

Stopped by for a late lunch with my wife yesterday and we really enjoyed the place…read more An awesome little cafe for pastries or a light breakfast/lunch in downtown HP. I had a Caesar salad, my wife has the French onion soup and a grilled cheese and all items were solid. Also had the Chocolate chip cookies which were awesome. They have a ton of pastries that I look forward to trying down the line as well. Would definitely recommend.

I met a girlfriend here for a mid-priced lunch last week, and it is such a cute little French…read morebistro right in Highland Park. I ordered the croque madame with the fried egg on top, and it was delicious. You can absolutely tell they use real butter--the true French way! My waistline might not thank them, but my tastebuds certainly did. I even brought home an almond croissant for the Hubby and snacked on a cheese and chive scone the next day, and everything was just fantastic. The only little hiccup is that the service can get a bit hectic. The staff seemed a little confused trying to match up the order numbers to the tables, and we almost got run over on our way out by a waiter sprinting to the patio! But even with the fast-paced environment, the food is wonderful whether you eat in or grab takeout. Definitely worth a visit! A much better experience here than MY 1st time. I think it's because they enlarged the dining area with more table space. It's still hard to have a conversation due to the high ceilings which echo the sound.

5 stars for the food but took off 1 star for service and 1 star for the smell. My daughter and I…read morecome here almost weekly and our clothes and hair reek so badly afterwards. Being that it's winter I have to wash our jackets immediately after to rid the smell. I haven't seen many reviews that mention it though, do others not notice it? I am embarrassed to go to other stores or activities afterwards. Sometimes when we go inside the cafe the air is thick and cloudy. Unfortunately this is my daughter's favorite spot, and I can't deny that the food, drinks, and chocolates are great which are mentioned in detail in everyone else's reviews. Service is hit or miss depending on who's working but can generally expect it to be cold. However, all the people who work there work extremely hard in a tight space to take orders and cook. Perhaps they aren't trying to be rude but are just busy. I do want to recommend the tomato and basil soup. It's so good and comes with a delicious cheese toast. It's the best when the cheese is melted off the bread and crispy! You can get an extra cheese toast for $2.

I usually get their Brie & Prosciutto Croissant which is delicious! Lately I've discovered another favorite.. Strawberry Belgian Waffle. It is SO GOOD! Their waffle mixture is just so delicious I really can't get enough of it :) I typically go with a cappuccino or a regular coffee. Today's coffee didn't taste very fresh though. My friend got an omelette, which she enjoyed. The service...that is the one thing that still needs improvement. I've already shared my feedback with the manager a few weeks back regarding one certain employee who is unfortunately very unfriendly and straight up rude. The manager knew exactly who I'm referring to and was supposed to "address it", however when I was there last week the girl was still there and her attitude/behavior seemed unchanged. Other girls working there are very nice and friendly though! Easy street parking! I will be back!
