The decor is super fun and definitely one of those spots where you end up taking more pictures than you planned. They serve just about every dessert you could crave: milkshakes, funnel cakes, waffles, coffee and ice cream. What stood out to me is their focus on quality- everything is made fresh when you order and the ice cream is real premium ice cream (you can taste the difference). The staff was hardworking and stayed busy the entire team, even though the shop itself was not very crowded when I went.

Being that my nephew and nice both have extreme but allergies. They kept emphasizing that the options were non dairy. (This is the only reason why I am eating it a 4, because I still don't know the base of the vegan ice cream) So to play it safe I got my niece (who had dairy and nut allergy) the Strawberry Banana Smoothie. It was sweet and she enjoyed it. My son and I shared the birthday cake flavor which was good. My nephew enjoyed the cookies and cream! Our wait was about 15 minutes. However they told us that after ordering. I will definitely be going back.

Pale Horse Coffee is owned by retired military who I thanked for there service. Inside, the line moved pretty consistently with averages of 10-12 people waiting to order and pick up their beverages. For food, they only had some fresh made egg burritos pre-wrapped and in a warming display and a few fresh baked muffins. Their coffee selection and flavors to add are pretty tremendous and if you love coffee, you'll love this place because their service is so warm and friendly, just like their beverages. They offer free wifi which makes this place a great hang out for humans and their furry friends. On the morning that I stopped in there were 3 of the most beautiful and well behaved golden retrievers waiting patiently for their dog bone treat while their people waited for their drinks. Many other people were having business meetings and working remote. There is outside seating as well as plenty of seating inside and just as many electric outlets to keep the technology charged while the body charges from their delicious coffee. Parking is also free for up to 2 hours in the garage behind the shops. This is a wonderful well run coffee place!

I love their options of drinks an biscuits, I've especially been craving their bacon and cheddar biscuit since I've last had it, and it's nice to go to a cafe that dos things a little differently than the standard! One thing I also adore about this location is how they will host small markets on the lawn outside the house! One time me and my friend finished chatting and having coffee and we unknowingly walked outside to see a bunch of vendors that weren't there before! It was so fun to walk around and speak with everyone, they were all so sweet and I ended up buying multiple things unplanned! I will say it can be a tight squeeze between the doorway and the counter when ordering as the hallway is small and the line can grow rapidly. But if it's not cold outside or busy there then it's not really an issue at all! I'm sad that they aren't open past 1-2PM most days, but that's understandable given the business they run and thier location! Overall, I couldn't recommend tho place more for anyone wanting a new study spot or place to try out in general in VB!

Being a boba tea fan, this always caught my attention. And reviews online have been very positive. Let's see if the visit was worth it. The staff greeted me once I walked inside. No foot traffic at all. Inside, the decor was really nice and well kept. Unfortunately, I didn't able to take pictures of artwork, but if you're a fan of anime, you're in the right place. Very cool indeed. I placed my order via the tablet at the counter with no issues. My choice was a large Strawberry Yogurt with strawberry heart jelly with 50% ice. Pretty good stuff. I assume it was set at 50% sugar (on the tablet, you have an option of 0% or 100% which I didn't select), but it did taste a bit on the sweet side. Nonetheless, my blood sugar was good hours later so no harm done. I've had heart jelly in previous drinks before and it worked well in this one too. Great stuff. I can see why it has great marks from the area. I think Sophia will enjoy this place once I come by again. Till next time :)

This dessert cafe has an amazing selection of handmade cakes that are baked fresh in their kitchen daily. I tried a slice of the Nutella cake, Reese's cake, and Oreo cake, and each one was perfectly spongy, moist, and not overly sweet. My favorite was the Nutella cake. The other flavors were just okay. The service was also excellent; everyone was friendly and welcoming. I couldn't decide which cake I wanted and they encouraged me to get all three lol. Besides the cakes, they have a nice variety of treats like macarons, bubble teas, frozen shakes, and Blue Bell ice cream, so there's something for everyone.

A total nightmare to get to for logistically, but totally worth the hassle and the drive. This place is tiny so we lucked out getting seats. There are a few seats on a low top bar facing the street and a few more high top bar seats facing the kitchen. Not ideal for socializing, but we made it work, I found this place to be extremely kid-friendly even though it isn't necessarily catering towards kids. Tons of great food options - highlights being the strawberry french toast and the chicken bacon ranch wrap. Pretty sure these are both specials for February, but gosh they should keep them year-round. The gentleman cooking was great - from food to service. My coffee was good. Not superb, but hit the spot.

So it took a few minutes before they greeted me. But they did eventually, and they were friendly. I looked around to see what they had. It was different whole cakes, cake slices, cookies, breads, coffee, cinnamon rolls, quiches, and etc. They are affiliated with the 17 hands coffee shop next door. They make the quiches and baked goods for them. The whole cakes looked pretty. They also had some fall flavors in desserts and coffee!! I did find it confusing that nothing had prices. I had to keep asking how much everything I was interested in was. The cake slices are about $7-8 per slice and the cookies were $3-4 depending on the flavor. I got a red velvet and a double chocolate cookie. They were both a good size and thick. They were ok. But nothing buttery or special stood out. The double chocolate was the better cookie out of the 2. The red velvet was a little bland. But looked appealing. I'd like to try their cakes in the future. I will say there were a few fruit flies lingering in the showcase which is why I chose the cookies. There's some outdoor seating. They only sell whole quiches here, but you can purchase individual slices next door, because they don't have the capability to heat them up there. I'd come back to try other things. Check them out!!
