At first glance, it looked like your typical convenience stop, but then I spotted a cozy little café tucked inside. I decided to try the turkey BLT, the passion fruit lemonade, and a Dulce de leche cruffin. The passion fruit lemonade was a bit tart for my taste--I would've loved a touch more sweetness--but still refreshing. The turkey BLT? Absolutely delicious. Perfectly toasted, flavorful, and satisfying. But the star of the show was the Dulce de leche cruffin. WOW. Flaky, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth good. It completely stole the spotlight. Absolutely recommend this place. I'll definitely be back!

The young ladies working were nice and the space was very simple. You can also build your own cupcake box and pick a variety of cupcake flavors out of about 30 different flavors ranging in price from $2.25 to $2.50 per cupcake. You can get a box of 9, 16 or 25 cupcakes in a box. They also offer coffee drinks. We came in to check out the options and we opted for a simple box of meringues. That's all my kids wanted and it was affordable at $6.25 for a box. Kids really enjoyed the meringues which melt in your mouth when you eat it. Meringues are made with egg whites, cream of tartar and sugar. They are fun to eat. I just realized, after the fact that Misha's cupcakes are also on the InKind app and they offer $15 off $45 welcome gift on the app and you also get 20% back on any purchase.

This last time I went I called ahead to see if they had their red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting because they sell those as well as with regular vanilla frosting. They said they did so I took a ride over to pick some up. When I got there I asked them if they definitely had the cream cheese frosting ones and she said they did and went to the back to get them. Got home and they weren't the cream cheese frosted ones. So ridiculous since I made a special trip just to get them. Their prices have also gone up so I don't even see much of a value in their products anymore. They also sell cake in a jar as well as regular cakes. In addition to their baked goods they also sell coffee and lattes. The cupcakes didn't taste as fresh as they used to so I'm not sure I'll be back since there are so many bakeries around the area.

TL;DR: got harassed by the staff for an item they might have mistakenly brought to our table…read more I just had a bad experience at Bonjour. My wife, our 3-year-old daughter, and I went there for breakfast. Because our daughter won't stay seated, my wife and I usually take turns eating. I hung out with our daughter while my wife ordered and ate. Then, we switched. A quiche was brought to the table. I wasn't expecting it, so I asked the waitress to confirm it was for our table. She said, "Yes, it is." I assumed my wife had ordered it, so I ate it. I was about to leave when a manager came over to ask if I had ordered the item, to which I answered, "I don't know." She asked for the receipt, which I didn't have. At this point, three staff members were standing around questioning me about this quiche. One of them brought out a receipt with "154" written on it; our table was 54. They were speaking Spanish among themselves, so I wasn't sure what was happening, but they eventually walked away. I thought the matter was settled. I went outside, and my wife went back inside to wash her hands. The manager approached her to ask if she had ordered the quiche and requested the receipt, explaining that I had probably eaten an item I didn't pay for. My wife hadn't kept the receipt, so we couldn't confirm or deny it. Maybe the person at the counter added it to our order by mistake. Maybe the waitress brought it by mistake and confirmed it was ours by mistake. But ultimately, we didn't make the mistake. Don't harass customers over your own errors. It isn't worth it for a quiche.

Everything is decorated beautifully. I'd say the prices are expensive. But unfortunately, with all the choices and not a lot of people coming, they lack in quality. I'll explain. Framboise cake. It was good. Not too sweet. I could definitely have had eaten another slice Chocofinger taste VERY rich. It was good don't get me wrong. But it was so sweet. I couldn't eat more than two bites. I don't think this one is ordered much because it had a freezer burn or being in The fridge for too long taste to it. Apple pie very different from American Apple pie. The sauce was dry-which is fine so it won't be soggy but it wasn't very good. And made it lack in flavor. I wouldnt get this again. Especially since it was close to $6 Lava cake I don't know if I warmed it up properly, but it wasn't really lava. It was nice and moist inside. This was definitely my favorite thing we tried. And the only thing I would eat again. But it also had the freezer burn flavor to it. Canele my first time trying this one. It was okay. I liked the flavor but it wasn't anything I would get again. Ojo de Tigre it was stale. And didn't have flavor. I wouldnt get this again either. Traditional baguette it was already a little hard by the time I got it. I don't think they are busy enough to be making them fresh throughout the day. But for $3 it was okay. Overall it was a flop for their bakery side. Their cakes are okay. I may try some more. Maybe they are known for their hot food.

The shop itself is bright and cheerful -- classic Jeremiah's vibe -- perfect for cooling off after a walk or grabbing dessert with friends or family. Overall, the cookie butter ice cream was a standout flavor and definitely worth a stop if you're in the mood for something sweet and unique. I'll be back to try more flavors soon!

This location was large and had a casual vibe with the colorful artwork on the walls. Two pleasant employees attended to customers as I waited. When one of the employees became available, she took my order for a small chocolate covered strawberry gelati. I'm still continuing my weekly visits to try each Italian ice flavor; this week is strawberry. The gelati was a delicious mixture of strawberry Italian ice, chocolate soft serve ice cream, and mini Hershey's chocolate chips. Honestly for me, there were too many chocolate chips--at the bottom of the cup, throughout the layers of the gelati, and on top. I quickly got tired of eating them and just left some in the cup. If I were to order this again, I would request a bit of chocolate chips on the top only. I have no idea when I will visit this location again, given that I live so far away, but I thoroughly enjoyed my experience.
