I cant believe that this was only my third visit. Ever since I read about Manifest Bread opening…read moreshop in Riverdale, I've meant to visit but kept forgetting to until a couple months ago and now I will make a more concerted effort to stop by on my day off. Manifest Bread not only has a neat variety of menu options but, the ambiance!!! It's a cool interior, clean bathrooms, and AMAZING STAFF! I've come twice for breakfast and once for their jambon beurre sandwich. My first breakfast included: - sweet potato bialy: interesting-in-a-good way grouping of ingredients and the crust was crisp - biscuit with butter & jam: biscuit was flaky, crisp, and yet doughy; the right amount of butter, and jam provided tartiness/refreshing bite - olive oil cake: no complaints! My second breakfast included: - biscuit with butter & jam: a must have! - basque cheesecake: I have to be in the mood for cheesecake and I'd aay it was "light and airy" but may not be the best judge here - cardamom bun: last 2 times I came here, the cardamom bun was coated in a thick white frosting, but this time, it was different, so i HAD to go for it and for a fan of cardamom, this was superbub! ABUNDANT amountof cardamom and right amount of moistness! I would have ordered a bialy again but new I was going to have a big lunch so will get it next time. The jambon beurre sandwich was not what I had expected as it was more...flavourful and salty than I would have preferred as I like a plain butter and ham on a baguette sandwich...however, you can taste the quality of the meats used. UPDATE: Went back for breakfast and this time got the mulled apple cider and: - onion poppyseed bialy: I did not need creamcheese with this and it was fine, but if you eat the crust with butter and the apple butter - yum. Crust was on the tough-chew side, but flavor profile was good. Now that I've had it again, will stick to the biscuit. - morning bun: very flaky, crisp, snd the sugar just got all over and me being a messy eater, I felt like I got the sugar all over me and sticky, too. Flavour was great, buuuut... - buttermilk biscuit with butter and apple butter: yum!!!!

I've purchased their baked goods at regional farmers' markets and wanted to see the brick & mortar…read morestore for myself. It's located in a convenient, small shopping center off of Route 1. Parking is challenging at peak times. The selection of baked goods is varied and fresh. The line to buy items can get long. There's a decent-sized space to "eat-in", should you want. The sweet potato/chili/pistachio bialy is quite a creation, really like it, zings big time. I've never seen that flavor combo in a bialy before and hope they keep making it. The gingerbread with meyer lemon glaze has a very deep ginger flavor that's quite memorable. Not as keen about the breads. The community sandwich loaf is too plain for me and the sourdough breads are tame.

Ted's Bulletin, located in Gaithersburg, MD, is where I meet my clients regularly. Uptown Bakers…read moreBagels is a must-have when visiting this establishment and during every meeting. However, during one of my meetings, my client and I were bragging about how tasty the Bagels were when a gentleman seated in the adjacent booth informed us that he was the one who delivered the delicious treats. Still, we knew the monotone in his voice indicated he wasn't happy about his delivery job. So, upon inquiring, he stated that the pay was decent but could be better considering the amount of driving and manual labor. Upper management at Uptown Bakers doesn't keep their word with the employees and appears to be consistently months late issuing bonuses quarterly. Immediately, I felt appalled and put the bagel down as he explained that his child was due to have surgery and the bonuses would help pay his copay. This company needs to do better.

For the price it really should be on point every time and with every item. Pumpkin Cupcake Not nearly enough pumpkin. Yellow cupcake was extremely dry. The caramel on top was good. Just an okay cupcake. Peach Cobbler Stuffed Cheesecake I loved that it had fresh peaches. The cheesecake again was overly dense and cream cheese could have been whipped longer. The Graham cracker crust was too sweet and a bit too thick. Very nice to look at. Cobbler pieces were delicious and made well. Brown butter Cinnamon Roll Plenty of pecans on top, which was appreciated. I also loved that they weren't skimpy on the frosting. There wasn't enough brown butter or something went awry because you couldn't even taste the nutty earthiness that comes from browning butter. While the roll was soft, it had a strong yeasty taste. Good amount of cinnamon inside. Out of all of the items this was the best. Maple Red Velvet Cupcake Overly sweet. The combination of the alcohol and the maple syrup resulted in a way too sweet to consume cupcake. The red velvet just okay. This was the opinion of 3 different people that tasted the cupcake. Buttercunch Mini Cheesecake I liked the Biscoff cookies on top. The cheesecake was overly dense. The cream cheese was not blended well enough. The caramel on top was nice. I'm a cheesecake snob so I have high expectations. Service was excellent. Store is only setup for Carryout. Menu rotates each week, check their website the night before for the menu. I love a rotating menu. Only open on the weekends, again check their social for hours of operation. All in all I spent over $100 and it wasn't worth it to me. I appreciate the presentation and how all the dessert look really good. I'm a foodie, I need everything to knock my socks off with every bite. Not a place for me, maybe it is for you?

I highly recommend these cupcakes. We decided to try the cookies and cream (chocolate cake, Oreo…read moreicing) and red velvet (red velvet cake, cream cheese icing). The chocolate cake was delicious- so moist and chocolatey! The Oreo icing was sweet but a nice complement. Definitely tasted like cookies and cream! The red velvet cake was also delicious! The cream cheese icing was a bit strong though, and out of everything was my least favorite thing. With that said... best cupcakes I've had in a while and I highly recommend! Can't wait to try more!

During…read morewarmer months it's usually packed on weekends, so the slower pace in colder weather felt expected. I ordered online and grabbed the 16 oz salted maple latte. Smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet. Their mocha is also really good and always consistent. It's one of those spots where you'll see people holding meetings, studying, or casually linking up with neighbors from outside their own area. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. They offer plenty of drink and food options, and the croissants I've tried have always been fresh. I also love being able to see the coffee machines in action. The staff is consistently friendly and smiling, which makes you want to keep coming back. Definitely worth a visit if you're near either location.

The interior is quaint, there are no places to sit, simply pan and some refrigerated items. I didn't quite understand the process, so what appears to be the baker explained things to me. So I'll share; obtain a tray, put a piece of paper down, grab some tongs and (my favorite part) pick your pan dulce!! I got the concha, my absolute fave, it was inexpensive and I could tell freshly baked. There was a bit of sweetness, what would be a perfect addition to your cup of coffee. I'll be back to try some more.

I've been a loyal customer of this bakery for a long time and usually enjoy their pastries, but my…read morerecent experience was really disappointing. I placed an order for two dozen pastry cupcakes to bring to a reunion, and when I opened the box, more than half were completely crumbled. When I went back to the bakery and showed clear photo proof (as shown in my attached pictures), the owner didn't really seem to believe me. They suggested the damage was probably due to my transportation, but that doesn't make sense -- the cupcakes stayed in their box, in my car, going straight from point A to point B. There was no rough handling, and honestly, transportation shouldn't cause pastries to fall apart like that. It felt more like they were just poorly made. In the end, all they offered me was less than half of what I've paid, which felt really unfair considering the condition of the order and the lack of accountability. Based on this experience, I wouldn't trust this bakery for large orders or special occasions. The quality control and customer service were extremely disappointing. I don't blame the ladies working there though, I felt bad they had to be the messages between the owner and I. Such a shame since this bakery is a daily staple for my home.
