The only criticism I have for this location is that they only offer one size drink, and it's not nearly big enough. Please offer multiple sizes! We were told it was a 45-minute wait for pastys and we just couldn't wait that long, so maybe also having the hot food ready would be a good idea. Still, the milk, tea and boba was amazing and I meant to come back by on our way out and try some more flavors but I got distracted. I would definitely return here and recommend you try one of their many great flavors of boba drinks.

Although it was super busy when we arrived, we were able to place our order quickly and our tea came out in a timely matter. Really enjoyed the ambiance and the wide variety of boba flavors. I ordered the milk tea boba and it was pretty decent, however, the bobas were super attached to each other and it was definitely difficult to drink them through the straw. The tea was also a bit too watery for my taste, but I plan to try different flavors next time I'm in the area!

Zehnder's Bakery is a marriage of a bakery and country marketplace. Walking around, there's no shortage of homemade foods, jarred goodies, kitchen gadgets, you name it. While everything looks awesome, I popped in looking for a bavarian pretzel, and Zehnder's did not disappoint. I almost walked right out thinking they didn't have any, but I was able to enjoy a warm, soft pretzel with an awesome beer cheese dip to go along with it. I'm sure everything else is great, but I can only vouch for the pretzels. Either way, thumbs up from me! read more

On a cold December night when we were walking around town it was bliss. We got a dozen to split/take home and when we got our order the bag was piping hot so I was forced to wait a minute which was VERY difficult. Ha. But they were worth the wait. We scarfed down a few right away and saved the rest for later. They actually warmed up really well the next day and were perfect with coffee on the couch on my first Sunday morning of holiday vacation. We also got chocolate, caramel, and cinnamon dipping sauces but honestly I liked them best plain. The cinnamon was my favorite of the three, though. The line was relatively long the Saturday night before Christmas but they had it down and it moved quickly. Both for ordering and getting our food. They also serve up hot cocoa, coffee, gator bites (yes, actual gator), and gumbo if your'e feeling peckish and/or adventurous. But we stuck with dessert and couldn't have been happier.

The bigger issue for me is the pricing and consistency. Charging an extra $1 for alternative milk in 2026 feels a little like cash grab? Especially when a lot of people order it out of necessity, not preference. On top of that, the specialty lattes have gone up another dollar in the past year, which makes the quality even more important. I've had good drinks here before, so I know they CAN do it well but this last visit was rough. My $6.50 "specialty" latte tasted like burnt coffee water with none of the flavor I ordered. For that 20% increase in price, I expect to actually taste the specialty part. That said, the employees were genuinely kind and super helpful. They happily added more almond milk to help salvage my very sad latte, and I appreciated their attitude a lot. Overall it's a cute spot with sweet staff, but the pricing and drink consistency need some serious attention. I'd love to see them tighten things up because it really could be great.

No spontaneous afternoon is complete without some ice cream, and I quickly found a place there that served some big scoops.

I was expecting something about a third of the size, but I wasn't going to complain -- never a thing as too much ice cream! I grabbed a table outside in the shopping center and dug in, but sadly found that I couldn't finish the whole serving. Hot temperatures melting the ice cream plus me filling up on the huge serving meant that a bit of it went to waste. It's an ideal size to share with someone if you just need a little something sweet! Still, when the warm weather has you screaming for ice cream, it's not a bad place to grab a scoop!
