Biscoff Milk Cake
Autumn H.

Loved everything I tried from here! My absolute favorite was the Biscoff milk cake though, it was phenomenal. The guy that boxed my order was so helpful and explained all the things to me. I'd like to try more of their desserts for sure.

Food was good, however, the young girl kept rolling her eyes and expressing her annoyance through her body language. There was only 1 person ahead of me and she was helping them, when it was my turn I asked her if they sell the baklava by pieces instead of buying only 1 type by the pound. She rolled her eyes ignored my question and she called for the male worker in the back which he helped me and was very nice about it and explained that it was by the pound one type which was fine. I figured it was a language barrier with the girl so I didn't mind till while I was being helped she started helping another customer who walked in and was speaking English and still rolling her eyes and acting annoyed. So with the exception of the girl it was a pleasant experience.

Baklava
Courtney P.

So many delicious pastries that are locally made! Came in for a tray of baklava. Most of it was pistachio flavored. But it was still very delicious!!!! Would come again

I am usually very picky with baklavas, but Vanilla is easily my favorite baklava place in Columbus. They have a wide selection of baklavas as well as pastries. During our visit to the store, we tried several different types of the baklavas, and while all were tasty and fresh, my personal favorite was the Turkish baklava. We also tried a few of the pastries, some of which were unique (e.g., the Kit Kat topped chocolate cake). The cakes were just ok to me. I cannot wait to go back to Vanilla for their other baklava options in the future.

Strawberry cake
Barry H.

Ordered several items from Vanilla Cakes & Pastries in Hilliard. Got the Nutella Cake & Strawberry Cake. The Nutella cake had a top layer of hard chocolate , chocolate cake, I believe Nutella crème and chocolate cake. Delicious!!! The Strawberry Cake was a scrumptious Strawberry glaze on top, vanilla cake, vanilla cream and chocolate cake on the bottom. OMG!!!!! So tasty. Not for the faint of heart. Super tasty!!! Don't miss out.

Eclair and Canoli

This place has really good high quality sweets, cake, baklava, Turkish baklava, and other pastries. Everything they make is delicious, and they have a lot of variety. Prices are reasonable. Eclair and Canoli were around $3.50, kunafa big slice for $5. Just a few small tables and chairs, more just a carry out place.

Pistachio cake

Wow, we are so impressed by the wonderful treats at Vanilla Sweets & Bakery! A wonderful variety of selections. We love love love the pistachio cake, moist and fluffy, almost like a tres leches cake... tons of flavors in one go! Turkish delights are wonderful with freshly brewed tea. It takes you to another place with the beautiful flavors and texture. Cannoli is creamy and crunchy at the same time. We look forward to trying different kinds of baklava with family and friends tomorrow, and will definitely come back for more. Thank you for the hospitality! ------ These are the most delicious pastries! We also had great conversations because of these scrumptious desserts.... Do not miss the opportunity for a real treat!

There are no shortage of Yemeni cafes in Cleveland. However, we do not have a Qamaria, so on a…read morerecent trip it only felt right that I should explore and see what Qamaria it is all about. I visited dislocation which is part of a strip mall, with ample parking. The ambience is clean with plenty of seating, nice decor, and the service is attentive. There are many great choices. However, I was recommended the pistachio latte, as it was a warmer day I opted for the iced version. While I was waiting for the coffee, I decided to take a look at the sweet offerings and it seemed like it was much of the same of what has offered at similar venues. I chose the biscoff milk cake. First, the highlights the pistachio latte was indeed quite good, I will say I could've used a bit more pistachio flavor. Also, I was not asked how sweet I wanted it. I probably would've opted for a tad bit more sweetness. The Biscoff milk cake was really nothing to write home about. It seemed like the cream on top of it was overpowering the dish, and the cake itself was not flavorful. Overall, I do not see this as a contender for the top with middle Eastern cafés in the region.

I really liked it. Also got a pistachio milkcake to go, which I asked help in choosing. Took it to go and had it many hours later with family. It was amazing and everybody loved it. It has this subtle essence and taste, so good! I'll gonna make this a regular pit stop while driving through Columbus!

**5 stars for the milk bread**…read more FUN FACT -- Tous Les Jous is owned by a South Korean food conglomerate group (same concept as Paris Baguette) and this is a bakery with Asian and European baked goods. I visited Tous Les Jours for the first time on Memorial Day (May 2026) at the Columbus location. I arrived around 2:30pm on a Monday. Surprisingly, they had lots of options available even with my late arrival because most bakeries run out of items quickly. They sell croissants, cakes, milk breads, macarons, drinks, etc. MY ORDER ($18.95 total for 4 items) -- Twist Donut ($2.95), Sweet Frank Roll ($4.50), Almond Croissant ($4.75), and a Whole Milk Loaf bread ($6.75). 1. Twist donut ($2.95) - sweet but not overly sweet. It tasted just like a regular twist donut that you'll find at other donut shops. 2. Sweet Frank Roll ($4.50) - good. Perfect savory option for breakfast or lunch. Soft and buttery bread base. I think $3 would have been a better price but the bread roll was good. I ate this in my car before driving back to Cleveland. It held me over until I got home. 3. Almond Croissant ($4.75) - my favourite item - buttery with some almond cream or paste inside. Topped with almonds. I don't like creamy things at all and I didn't realize that this croissant had a cream inside until I opened it but the cream is very light and it is more of a spread than a cream. 4. Whole Milk Loaf Bread ($6.75) - Fresh and soft. Definitely my other favourite item. This was all gone within a day, that's how good it was. Buttery goodness. The best bread. Overall, I enjoyed visiting Tous Les Jours and I hope to visit their Cleveland location soon. I ordered takeout so I didn't sit in but they have some tables and chairs available. I'll definitely be back if I'm close by the area again. Tous Les Jours means everyday in French and I wish I could visit them everyday...haha. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 101/250 total reviews in 2026 - 942 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 May 2026

We tried three different cookies - brookie, reverse, and a chocolate marshmallow concoction that I…read moredidn't get the name of. The brookie and the reverse were very similar, both very soft and gooey and over the top sweet. The chocolate marshmallow cookie was my favorite of the three because the cookie had a small amount of crisp on the exterior that added a dimension to what was also a very soft sugar bomb interior. None of cookies were bad. If you want a sweet indulgence, any of them will satisfy. Literally any of them. I could hardly tell them apart. The best part for me was the sauces that they add to the cookie before serving. That at least mixed up the flavors a little. The restaurant has a few tables inside and out. There isn't a public bathroom available, though, so don't plan on staying long. They have great hours, but maybe haven't figured out how to service the entire shift yet. On weeknights they are open until 9:00 and on Saturday they are open until 11:00. I originally tried around 9:30 pm on a Saturday night and the store was out of all but two flavors of cookies. When I came back on a Wednesday night at 8:00 pm they had most flavors, but were out of two. I don't know how common it is for them to be out of cookies, but 2/2 isn't a good look. If all you sell are cookies, you better have cookies when people want them. I met the same employee on both visits. He was very nice, quick to greet us after arriving, and clear on the menu limitations. I'm not sure if he is staff or ownership, but either way I think he is an asset to business. They have a sign that says they sell ice cream to go with the cookies. I peeked into the counter to see what kind of ice cream and it was mostly empty, so I'm not sure what the options are on that front. Maybe just simple chocolate and vanilla? Not sure. I think the cookies would go pretty well with ice cream and if I went back I would probably try that. Price is kind of steep for cookies (~4.55 each), but not out of line with what other fancy bakeries charge for their cookies. This is never going to be a frequent stop for me, but it was fun to try.

Poor girl was all alone behind the counter and it was busy! She was friendly and worked quickly…read more We ordered one of every cookie as it was our first time Cookies were good. The reverse resees and cookies and cream are really yummy! The chocolate chip was not the greatest. Really sugary you could taste the sugar grains. All and all if I was in the mood for a cookie and this place was close I would go again. This is an update: about 30 min after we ate these today me AND my husband were puking. Before someone comments it's because we ate all The cookies we literally only had a quarter of each cookie. Some that we didn't like as much just a bite so it wasn't from over doing it. Because of this I'm dropping my rating to 2 stars

We'd been hearing wonderful things about Tulip Cafe for years and just never seemed to be nearby…read morewhen they were open. The stars finally aligned, though, and I'm so glad they did! We stopped in for dessert and coffee but will definitely be back to try more of the menu. They have already achieved the impossible- Turkish delight that is actually both delightful and Turkish! They have a variety of flavors and even little bags of the narnian classic. The coffee is excellent, both straight up and in the many creative blended drinks. The Dubai chocolate latte is a dessert in itself!

They have a small shop tucked in a plaza, and their display of desserts and Turkish delight was impressive! The honey cake was my favorite, although the layer of honey fell off on our journey home It was slightly sweet with a layers of cake, cream, and grainy powder that was really good. The hazelnut baklava was tasty as well, and it was covered with a sweet cream which made it wetter than Greek baklava. Since they specialize in Turkish desserts and drinks, we also tried the Turkish coffee. It's served hot and was brewed very quickly. Since Turkish coffee is prepared without filtering, we were surprised by the layer of grounds on the bottom, but it's part of the taste and uniqueness of the coffee. It is on the stronger side so it paired well with the sweet dessert. I would like to try the coffee with some cream or milk next time. There is very limited places to sit since the shop is small, but it was empty when we were there so the service was quick.
