I haven't had a chance to try any other serving they offer but the cake is top notch. The ambiance in the building is clean and fresh and smells divine. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a sweet treat for a special occasion (birthday, graduation, holiday, divorce, etc) or just because you've got a sweet tooth. Service of course is quick and speedy and they work with you to find the perfect match to your needs.

When we picked up the cake, we noticed the mispelling immediately and asked them to fix it. We were told they were unable to fix it as the cake decorators had already left and they no longer had the icing color. Therefore our cake was presented, mispelling and all, for the "Celebration". The previous time "Congratulations" was mispelled.

Wow! Val's rivals Columbus's Dan the Baker and is absolutely worth the morning weekend drive to…read moreDayton to get your very own! We took a quick trip from columbus to Dayton and were instantly impressed. This is definitely a cafe that loves its city and features many locally made wares. We got the garlic cream cheese danish, the Kellie pie danish, the orange monkey bread, and the buttered croissant. My only problem was that the croissant was covered in a brushing of sugar syrup and it would have been nice for it to just be a butter croissant. It was still delicious and perfectly fine just wish it would have been named more appropriately:) Staff are efficient but kind as there is always a line out the door. We were lucky to still grab some seats inside on a hot day; however, there is well shaded seating outside as well. 4 pastries are a lot for 2 people so we could not try any more. We can't wait to go back!!!!

Stopped in mid morning since I was in the area and had heard lots of raves about Val's. Well, let…read moreme say that many of their selections look like works of art. There is a large indoor seating area. There is some street parking. If I had been parked better I would've lingered. Instead I chose 4 items to take away in a box. I enjoyed everything. They have some really interesting pastries and also the more typical ones. It's on the high $ side. In my opinion it's a treat, a special event kind of place. This is not a get a dozen for the kids ball game kind of spot. Again, just my opinion. I hope to return when I can sit and linger.

I just purchased their 10 ounce Blueberry Pie at Dorothy Lane Market…read more Incredibly good. Best ever. A fantastic treat for guests. Please make a version without lard. I'm not a crust person anyway, but lard is really a turnoff in this health conscious society. Other than lard, the ingredients are fine for health conscious consumers. Important to know. Looks like DLM is putting the pies into their own containers. Unfortunately, there is a label on the bottom of my container which lists a variety of some not so healthy ingredients as well as cream cheese. That contradicts the ingredients label on the front. Looks like a mistake. Does your blueberry pie contain cream cheese? My wife saw those ingredients and wanted me to return it. I told her it must be a mistake. I'll notify DLM.

My husband brought a small pie "strawberry rhubarb" purchased at " "Dorothy Lane Market" Oakwood on…read moreSaturday March 4th. We were so excited to have found this gem so early before strawberries and rhubarb are in season. I tasted the crust and found an unusual taste that was not pleasant. So I had heavy cream and whipped it thinking it would "help" the "unpleasant " flavor. It did not help. I read the ingredients on the "clam shell" and saw "almond extract" this was what was sooo overpowering that it took away any strawberry rhubarb filling plus "spices" which I am not sure but I think I tasted "cardamom" as well. I am probably wrong because the almond extract was so overpowering that you can not taste anything else. Hopefully it was a heavy handed baker that accidently poured more "almond extract" than meant too into the pie filling, that you could not taste either strawberry or rhubarb. Hopefully it was a "one off" as almond extract can be very polarizing when it comes to baked goods

Over time I've picked up treats for neighbors, co‑workers (the glazed croissants are unbelievable!), and one of the hardest‑working instructors at UD -- my fella.

And just like that, I walked out with fresh Pączki and a little history lesson! Huge thanks to Ashley's for the delicious goodies and the kindness. It's why I keep coming back.
