After trying several of their baked goods at local coffeeshops in Tacoma area, I discovered an…read moreopportunity from social media that they were having a pop up at their own brick and mortar baking kitchen, with collab with local coffee, Civic Roasters, a few months back. I know they do not have regular open hours for just walk in purchase, but rather, they're custom order type business, but I have yet to place any custom orders so I cannot speak to that experience. What made me write this review is how accurate the owner (Brianne) described cake and desserts in the description and the baked goods taste matched 200% of the description. The pistachio cake was out of the world, so was the whoopie pie!!! I got to meet Brianne in person and she was very friendly, and was kind to explain everything about each of her baked goods she had out that day. I've tried their baked goods from pop tarts to cookies to housemade Twinkie and the creation and taste are unmatched. Single serve baked goods were more on pricier side, but well worth every bite. I would definitely order custom baked goods from here, knowing the quality and taste of products from this shop!!! Currently, you can find Spilled Butter baked goods at Cosmonaut coffee, Outer Dark Coffee, and at Tacoma Farmers Market (also known as Tacoma Broadway Farmers Market) from time to time. Enjoy!!!

8/5/2026 - My family and I just had one of the worst customer service experiences we've ever had at…read moreMetropolitan Market in Gig Harbor. When we walked up to the checkout, the cashier and the employee bagging groceries were engaged in a conversation and laughing together. We completely understand that employees interact with one another, but once customers are at the register, they should feel acknowledged. Unfortunately, neither employee looked up, smiled, greeted us, or said a single word during the transaction. The only thing the cashier said was while handing me the receipt, and it was so quiet I couldn't even understand what was said. The lack of even basic acknowledgment made us feel like an interruption rather than valued customers. Metropolitan Market has always had a reputation for exceptional service, which is why this experience was so surprising and disappointing. I hope this was simply an isolated incident, but it's something management should be aware of.

When you walk in they have a host stand where they will greet and seat you. The dining room is large but it did get pretty full while we were there. They have patio seating first come first serve as well as bar seating. The menu is fairly standard for a breakfast spot, however, everything seemed to be made from scratch and their biscuits were exceptional. This place lives up to the hype, definitely worth a stop if you're looking for breakfast in the gig harbor area.

A few diners enjoyed the outside patio but some looked a bit chilly. Devoted kiss has excellent service. We were greeted right away and given water then we ordered: a piece of banana bread French toast with bacon (kid), the dkc biscuit-wich, and the corned beef (along with coffees for the adults and a milk for kid). They don't have a published kid menu but will make adjustments for kid meals (like our daughter's 1 piece of French toast). I think her meal ended up rung up about $10 plus $2.50 kids milk). Coffee came in large cups so we never ran out (they did refill periodically). A little wait for food which was within reason for how busy they were. We all loved our food. Our kid devoured her banana bread French toast and we both loved our meals. We did end up with take home boxes for leftovers (which I noticed a lot of people had!). I looked around and saw other diners with interesting meals that I wanted to try. When we were leaving a little later (maybe 9:45 am), there was a wait of probably 4 tables. Restaurant still busy. Bathrooms were clean, we parked on the street outside the restaurant but saw some people park a little farther and walk, restaurant buzzed with activity (a little noisy but within reason for number of people). This would be a nice spot to bring an out of town visitor to, if you can make it early or don't mind a wait. Food is worth it.

But I shouldn't write them off the list just yet. They are going wholesale with their donuts and you will be able to get them at Metropolitan Market, Olympia Coffee Roasters and other places. More details on that on their Facebook page.

Never had a mochi but it is a soft chewy donut. Plenty of donuts at 1p, which is hard to find. The space is small, no internal seating, so take and go or potential outdoor seating for better weather days. The servers were busy but very nice and quick to get the donuts and coffee. The coffee is local (Olympic Coffee) and they also sell boba teas. Highly recommend to stop by and support the small business while shopping or on your walk. I did not know of this spot, just happen to be next store shopping and wanted a coffee and donut. Understand these are gourmet donuts and not a typical shop or grocery store. They are higher on the costs but worth it for this type of store.

Typically get the jalapeño sausage breakfast sandwich. The bread is super soft, the sausage has a nice flavor, and there isn't too much egg. It also come served warm which makes it yummy. I'm also a bit picky when it comes to coffee and how it's made. Corina does a GREAT cappuccino. It's strong without a bitter taste to it. Also like to get one of their macarons-they never disappoint!

I always pass by this shop, so today I finally decided to come in and give it a proper try…read more Ambiance: It's definitely very inviting. The floral arrangements and product displays were clearly designed with great care. All the items are wrapped in plastic wrap to keep them fresh. The shop is quite spacious, and the interesting paintings on the walls really leave an impression. All of this plays a huge role in building up their customer base. Service: The signage inside is clear, and everyone lines up in an orderly way. The staff is warm and welcoming, and they even asked if I wanted my bread warmed up. The order came out very fast--overall, a great service experience. Taste: I ordered two pastries: an almond croissant and a chocolate croissant. The almond croissant was packed with ingredients, with a thick, rich layer of processed almond filling in the middle. The texture was great--highly recommended! However, the chocolate croissant was a total disaster!!! My first bite was actually satisfying; the chocolate flavor and texture were rich. But on my second bite, I realized... it was underbaked. So disappointing.
