    These are the best pastries I've ever had, and the coffee was amazing as well. They also have a nice back patio to sit on. Will absolutely be coming back.

    The pastries themselves were pretty good but not necessarily worth the wait. The canelés were burnt, and there wasn't a lot of caramelization on the kouign amanns. My coffee w/ whole milk was great!! But my friend's oat milk flat white kinda just tasted like drip with creamer in it.

    Croissants and chocolate chip cookie were truly exceptional. Lovely place for coffee and pastries hidden away in St. Elmo.

There were a lot of options as far as flavors, sizes, toppings, etc. I stuck with a 12 oz white hot chocolate with whipped cream. Now the white hot chocolate was fantastic. It was real white chocolate and it was a nice bit of sweetness. But the cheesecake was unfortunately disappointing. I don't know if it was over baked or over beaten or what but it had a rubbery jello like texture that's not appealing in the mouth when expecting something different. I could only have two bites before giving up on the $9 slice. I'm torn on this review. And this is because I was so excited and hopeful to try the cute hot chocolate place with desserts that I wanted to love it. But was so disappointed with my dessert. The hot chocolate was fantastic and that being their key thing is what I would try again. But I'd probably never reorder a baked dessert from them as they are not necessarily cheap and I wouldn't want to be disappointed when there are other treat options around the area. The space itself is mountainy fun candy cottage vibe. Serves the purpose of having somewhere to enjoy the treats you've ordered inside.

    Fantastic, fresh pies with many creative flavors to choose from...they even offer 4" personal pies…read more HIGHLY recommend this place...you won't be sorry!!

    Mmmm, pie. On my…read morelittle day trip to Chattanooga, I wanted to find a dessert or pastry to take home to share with my husband. It was getting late and I was also tired of walking around the city, so I wanted to find a place that I could drive to easily that would have accessible, free parking, and that was still open -- many bakecafes had already closed. A quick Yelp search revealed this place as a great option! I scooted on over and walked inside. Very friendly staff members, super welcoming. The place was clean and smelled AMAZING! No real seating inside but that's okay. They have a cooling drawer and a room temp drawer depending on the need of the pie. I'd say mostly dessert pies are available but they also have a nice selection of quiches and pot pies. Flavors/varieties rotate depending on the day. They'd sold out of a few varieties when I arrived, but I was still able to get plenty of yumminess. They have a deal for four pies at a reduced cost so that's what I got! All pies are individual though you can preorder larger pies if you need one. Since I had the ~2 hour drive back home, I of course had to opt for non-refrigerated options. I wound up with a lemon blueberry chess pie, a chocolate bourbon pecan pie, a regular pecan pie, and a chocolate chess pie. Seriously, they were all delicious! Somewhat surprisingly, I'd say my favorite was the regular pecan pie. Don't get me wrong, pecan pie is a beloved pie of mine...just thought it would go to something with chocolate. But the amount of sweetness, the ratio of gooey inside to nutty outside...just so good! Each pie had a delightfully buttery, flaky crust. You really can tell the difference -- they're the real deal. Hubs and I split a mini pie each night for four nights and the quality really didn't suffer! I'd say they're the perfect size to split, though I'm sure I also could've devoured a whole one if left unattended, lol. Would love to try more flavors in the future. If you're in the area, give them a visit!

    This ice cream shop is located right near the pedestrian bridge (currently closed but reportedly…read moreopening in September 2026?). Choose a base (chocolate vs vanilla yogurt or ice cream) + cup/cone - greater than $0.5 + toppings ranging from $.75-$.95. We ended up getting Vanilla ice cream with cookies and creme as well as chocolate yogurt + cookie dough for our little one. Portion sizes were large and tasty. Pricing was $$ but so is most ice cream shops in the area. Service was quick and the young workers in the store were quick and attentive. The only downside is that if there are any allergies to any of the items (including over 10+ nuts, I would NOT recommend as they do a very simple water wash of the ice cream mixing machines).

In addition to the Google listing and web site, I also just looked at your Facebook page. It also says 9 am. If your hours change, update your online listings and your posted door hours. It's inconsiderate to let customers waste time and money because you can't be bothered to keep basic business information accurate.
