Funny story, a couple years ago I asked my tattoo artist (Jason @ Mooncastle!) for food…read morerecommendations in the area and this was the one he seemed most passionate about. I took my mama there that same weekend and the rest is history.. The whole family was hooked. I live out of state, but my mom and son, in Springfield, frequent this place on special days out. They share a birthday, April 9th, and were having a birthday lunch there this afternoon, when I got the idea to call the restaurant to ask if there was any way I could provide a card to cover their lunch, since you pay at the end. I was greeted and helped by the kindest woman, Alicia. She found them, about to leave, and hurried to take my info! She was lovely in the sincerest way. I gave her my phone number if there were any issues. Well, there were, as my lovely mom perused their delightful gift shop area (think Cracker Barrel but better) so long the pre-auth expired and my card declined! LOL HAPPY BIRTHDAY GUYS The girl who called back to get things squared away was just as darling as could be, I'm sorry I didn't get your name, but thank you. Thanks to all of you for your help :) As for the food, my son said: "incredible, as usual." 5 million star experience every time! The meat and 3 concept is a dying art that they have mastered.

Chef's Market Cafe & Takeaway is one of those places that's easy to love and easy to come back to…read more The cafeteria-style setup makes it quick and approachable, but the food is where it really shines. Portions are generous, everything feels fresh and comforting, and it's consistently done well. We've eaten here in person and grabbed it to go on busy nights, and it holds up every time. Our personal favorites are the chicken, pot roast, and meatloaf, all hearty, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you're craving a solid comfort meal. One of the things I love most about this place is that it truly feels like "come as you are." There's no single type of crowd here. You'll see families, business meetings, date nights, people dressed up, people dressed casually, groups of two, groups of four, and even three generations sitting together. It works before or after church, after school, after soccer games, or after work. No judgment, no pressure, just people showing up for great food and a great environment. What really stands out is how respectful and welcoming everyone is. Whether it's a toddler learning to eat, someone needing a little extra space, or a busy group navigating a crowded moment, people are patient, kind, and considerate of one another. The staff and guests alike create an atmosphere that genuinely embodies Southern hospitality. What also makes this place special is how much thought has gone into the overall experience. While you're waiting in line, there are fun and unique extras to browse like recipe books, aprons, and thoughtful items for kids. Nothing feels like filler. It all adds to how warm and homey the space feels for locals and visitors alike. And then there's the dessert area, which deserves its own mention. There's an entire cake station behind a large glass case filled with massive, handmade-from-scratch cakes. You can grab slices, order whole cakes in advance, and even place special holiday dessert orders. It's decadent, impressive, and very hard to walk past without stopping. Even when it's incredibly busy, the team is friendly, efficient, and well organized. Whether dining inside, outside, or picking up food to go, the experience is always smooth and welcoming. Included are a few photos from the first time we ate there in person outside, though we've been back many times since. Shown here are the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy and a roll and the roasted chicken with green beans and rosemary roasted potatoes for reference.

I hate that I have to preface this by saying that a "3" means "OK"; it's not indicative of a bad…read morething/place/experience. Also, this is a vegan review. I was in this area for work and was looking for some gluten free vegan sweets. It appeared that Healthy Body Bakery could satisfy that craving, as they cater to those with dietary restrictions. It's a small business, tucked behind the main street-facing businesses of a building. I was warmly greeted upon entry. They only had one gf vegan cake option on the day that I went (vanilla cake with vanilla icing), but they had several gf cupcakes and muffins available. I grabbed a cake slice (for half off!) and a cupcake. VANILLA CAKE SLICE Vegan and gluten free vanilla cake and vanilla icing. The cake was moist and the taste was ok to a seasoned vegan. What I mean by that is, for decades I've watched (and tasted) as the vegan food game evolved. Back in the 90s, vegan vanilla cake had this same beige/light brown color and flavor. So I actually knew what it would taste like before I even bought it, based on the color. However, it did not taste gluten free and that is a flex. The icing was slightly lighter than a buttercream icing, but definitely not a whipped cream icing. For people who don't like "too sweet", this icing would be perfect for you. It was sweet without the sugar rush. I would love to see them improve on their vegan vanilla cake though. If they can get it to that light and fluffy yellow vanilla color, they'd join the dozens of awesome vegan bakers across the country who've mastered this feat. MANDARIN ORANGE CUPCAKE A tasty orange flavored cupcake with the same aforementioned vanilla icing. It was moist; it did not have that typical grainy gf texture or dry gf taste. It was a very good cupcake. I believe they also have a peach gf vegan cake in their rotation. If I was in the area again, I'd definitely return to try that peach flavor.

I drove an hour and a half to this place. The carrot cake was unbelievably good!!! I wish they had…read morea closer bakery to where I am from in Unionville highly recommend! We'll definitely come back for another birthday cake!

Nothing Bundt Cake always comes in clutch and has become a go-to for us when celebrating anything…read moreand everything from new jobs, new houses, holidays or birthdays...and on occasion, "just because"! This Nothing Bundt is located in a small plaza that is shared only with a local dental office. It is situated just off of Indian Lake and sits in the middle of all the action in Hendersonville. Parking is limited, but is enough given the in/out nature of stopping by Nothing Bundt. Our normal order at NBC is a variety pack or two of Bundtinis. We always make sure a few staples including chocolate, red velvet, lemon raspberry and lemon are part of the dozen, but we also make sure a few of the seasonal options are included too. The Bundtinis are normally for the guests, which we get ourselves a few Bundlets, and I ALWAYS go with the lemon. It is my absolute favorite cake/dessert...I am obsessed! We have ordered ahead and stopped in on the fly at this location. We have had no issues with either. Service is always friendly and helpful, the store is small, but well maintained and clean. Overall, love me some Nothing Bundt, and this location is closest to our house, so when the need or craving hits, this spot is our go-to!

I picked up a few individual cakes and tasted the lemon flavor first--bright, moist, and perfectly sweet. On Father's Day, we enjoyed the white chocolate raspberry, which was rich and flavorful with just the right hint of raspberry. We also had the red velvet, which didn't disappoint either! Moist, decadent, and paired perfectly with a glass of Secco wine for the celebration. It's a grab-and-go location (no dine-in seating), but it's perfect for picking up a sweet treat or ordering cakes for special occasions. The individual Bundtlets are a little under $6 each, and they offer full-size cakes too. Parking is limited but manageable--the lot is small and shared with a dentist office next door, but if you're just running in and out, it's no problem. Highly recommend if you have a sweet tooth or need something special to celebrate life's sweet moments!

I don't normally leave reviews before I've even served the food, but I felt compelled to write this…read moreone immediately. My son turns two this weekend, and this birthday means more to our family than most people will ever know. He was very sick around his first birthday, so we never got to have the celebration we had hoped for. This is our first real birthday party for him, and like many busy parents, I was trying to pull everything together at the last minute. I learned that Lili Bella's typically takes orders well in advance, but after speaking with the sweetest woman on the phone, she suggested I reach out to the owners directly because they might be able to help. They didn't have to. But they did. This local, family-owned, veteran-owned business fit me into their schedule for two dozen cupcakes with only a few days' notice. They helped me come up with ideas when I wasn't even sure what I wanted and made the entire process easy. When I arrived, I was completely charmed. The bakery is tucked inside a beautiful historic stone cottage that feels warm, welcoming, and full of personality. The owners are some of the most genuine, down-to-earth people I've met in a long time. Not "good customer service" nice--actually kind people who genuinely care about their customers and community. As I was leaving, they handed me their last fresh cinnamon roll of the day and told me I had to try it. No charge. Just kindness. Who does that anymore? While I was there, I learned they do cakes, cookies, cupcakes, coffee, tea events, and even have a Bridgerton-inspired experience coming up that I'm already planning to attend with my mother-in-law. The cupcakes are for tomorrow's pool party, so I'll happily update this review after everyone has tried them. But honestly, the experience alone earned five stars before I ever opened the box. In a world that often feels rushed and transactional, Lili Bella's feels like the opposite. It feels like community. It feels like kindness. It feels like the type of business you root for because you genuinely want good things to happen to good people. Thank you for helping make my son's birthday special. You've earned customers for life. And if you've been losing a little faith in humanity lately, go buy a cinnamon roll from Lili Bella's and spend five minutes talking to the people who run it. You'll leave with more than dessert.

Literally the cutest, coziest bakery with the friendliest staff! Definitely going to be a go to…read morespot for me! I've tried their cinnamon rolls and muffins.
