It'll make you forget you're in the suburbs of Chicago, with its selection of sophisticated sweet and savory items. Every detail feels intentional. This spot embodies everything you'd expect from a truly special bakery. I tried the Chocolate Raspberry Hazelnut Croissant and the Peach Danish -- both pastries were buttery, flakey, and packed with a unique blend of bold and nostalgic flavors. Absolutely exquisite. This is a beautifully designed place, with a modern and pleasant atmosphere. The staff is comprised of incredibly friendly individuals -- the type of people who you can tell are GENUINELY kind (which is hard to come by these days). The Bellbird Bakeshop is the kind of place that reminds you how memorable a neighborhood bakery can be.

Sadly, the oven were off and no more savory donuts we being made for the day. Daniel was awesome though. He understood we were bummed, but it is what it is. We did get to purchase some sweet donuts though. My hubby devoured his before I could get a photo, but we also got the Rocket Pop, Hershey's S'More Reimagined Campfire and Turtle. They were all very good. We do plan to return as soon as we can to get a fresh savory donut. The facility was clean. Looks very good for the end of day.

You might ask yourself, So what's the shelf life of a cupcake?? I mean, we have all been there. You…read moreorder some tasty treat and you don't finish it for some reason. Will it be good tomorrow? Will it be crusty? Should you even bother? Well, I'm here to tell you. Courage totally gets it. It passes the freshness test. We stopped in and ordered the classic Survivor cupcake to go. Wow, it's a cute little cupcake! How do they do that rainbow swirly thingy with the frosting? Anyways. Well for some odd reason life got in the way and I couldn't eat my cupcake until the next day. But that's okay! Because instead of landing in the moratorium, this cupcake had me on cloud nine. So thick and dense and cakey. And the frosting was yummy and flavorful. Wow..if it's this good a day old, I bet it's a twelve star same-day cupcake.

Fear no more Courage cupcakes are so delicious moist and reasonably priced. Plus some profits go to the cure for cancer. I was so happy I found the place open. They changed the hours so we barely made it today so it was well worth my trip, I tried four different flavors and I truly was happy with all of them. This is the very first time I had a red velvet that was so moist and the cream so soft and smooth is just melted in my mouth Yum. I had the maple bacon I removed the bacon but the maple flavor was so delicious. I also tried the chocolate banana cup cake it had a very delicious banana filling and the light chocolate cram top with dark drizzle of dark chocolate was like I was in heaven. They also honor the yelp special which is sweet because the proceeds go to the cure for cancer. I will definitely go back again. Oh yeah I forgot to mention they have food trucks in case you are in down town

Egg Harbor Cafe has a creative menu with plenty of breakfast and lunch options. I had the Barrington Benedict and really enjoyed it. The hollandaise was creamy and rich without being too heavy, and the hash potatoes on the side were fresh, crispy, and had that perfect crunch. Everything tasted well-prepared and fresh. A solid choice for a relaxed business brunch when you're looking for good food, friendly service, and a menu with a creative variety.

Tried the my passion for 1, which is just a bunch of fruits, eclairs, marshmellows, and brownies with a rich and creamy chocolate dip in the middle. I LOVEEE chocolate fondue so this was genuinely heaven on earth. Also had the melt n dip crepe, which is filled with strawberry, kiwi, banana, and pineapple and filled with 3 kinds of chocolate - milk, dark, and white. The painted pattern on the top was so pretty, and surprisingly even with a slurry of chocolate, this was not heavy whatsoever. This place was bustling and just such a vibe!!

And I couldn't' get a cup of ice. Especially when I ordered a $7 drink. You're telling me that you're going to charge me $1 for a cup of ice no matter what size it is because, you didn't put enough ice in my iced XL drink? There needs to be consistency! If I go to Starbucks I know that I can get free ice water or ice with any purchase. If I go to Dunkin Donuts I can get a free cup of ice with any purchase. If I go to McDonald's I get a free cup of ice or ice water with any purchase. You can't tell me that you save so much that you're willing to let consumers never come back over $1! Make every drink 25 more and give me a free cup of ice. And, for goodness sakes have decaf drip coffee. You're a coffee shop! You already got rid of our ice coffee. How greedy is Scooter's coffee?
