This little cafe is just a short walk from our hotel when we visited Maryland. I love pastry and…read morelove a good brew so we gave it a try. When we visited the first time it was very busy - on a Wednesday afternoon. No one is working and everyone is out drinking coffee? LOL! All the pastries are in the middle cases, mostly sweet ones on one side and savoy on the other. The price was very reasonable, unless you get the few selective croissants with special ingredients, such as the pistachio one we tried. The highlight is the latte. These days when you go to a cafe they give you a paper cup regardless if you are dining in with no latte art. We got the cute cup with lovely art. This along deserves 4.5 stars. The pastry were just OK if you ask me. You are able to heat it up yourself with the little toaster by the counter, but you feel rushed as there are others standing around waiting to heat up theirs, or want to get water which is right next to the toaster. overall it was a cute little place, I think it was owned by Korean as it give me a very korean cafe vibe.. LOL. If we ever go back to Maryland and stay near by we would re-visit.

Decided to try Chateau for the first time last night as I've always walked by and never had the…read moreopportunity to dine in. There's a good selection of pastries and I ended up choosing a coconut cream cheese option that was pretty good and flaky. I wanted to try the pistachio croissant but to be honest it looks incredibly unappetizing. I wish the presentation was different. I did have their London fog and it comes with sweetened honey. So good! Service was really good. It's essentially self serve but staff are quick on the orders.

I walked in and oooo ahhh ooohh!! The décor is so cutesy and relaxing. I ordered a Herbal Apple Berry Hot Tea, Hubby ordered a Vanilla Iced Latte, and Halva Chocolate Chunk Cookie. Everything was fixed quick and flavorful!! I can't stress how soothing the hot tea was !! Light, yet powerful flavor. Hubby was very pleased w his Vanilla Latte. And the cookie, we tore it up!! So soft, yum. We'll certainly be back !!

This is one of the little Cafe near by the hotel we stayed when we went to Maryland recently…read more The place is pretty cute, bright and airy. Some seatings were comfy (the ones in the back) and the others was a bit hard. Most of the pastries are in the middle with sweet ones on one side and savoys on the other. The price was really reasonable. I saw so many savoy ones I would love to try if I ever visit at BF time. I saw they have Cronut (Croissant and Donut in one). I had had Cronut in Vegas (at the Paris Hotel), but the ones here looked a little different so I wanted to try. Mistake. It was extremely greasy. The oil soaked through the paper plate and I had to squeeze the pieces I cut with napkins to get as much oil out as possible. I would give it a 2 star, it would have been good if not so oily. The egg tarts on the other hand deserved a 5 star. Love it. The latte tasted fine, but it took them a while to make it (almost 10 mins) and served in the normal paper cup, I was hoping for a nice latte art since it took so long. Overall it is a wonderful place to sit around and enjoy some quiet time, just don't get the cronut unless they cut down on the oil...

UPDATE: The last few times I've been here it just hasn't been as good. The food options have faded…read moreand the drinks have just been okay. The tofu steam bun -- easily my favorite lunch item in the area -- really didn't work. It's still an interesting experience but I really can't recommend a place I now avoid. --- PROS - Interesting selection, interesting food, lots of options, overall friendly staff. - Bathrooms were clean. The interior of the restaurant seemed like a good meeting/date spot. Although they had Wifi, I wouldn't call this a great place to come and study or get work done, although I saw people doing that. I've had the Vietnamese coffee twice, the first time was great, the second time was just okay. Food items are very unique, so much so I didn't like some of them but I still enjoyed the experience. Try something that sounds weird, it's half the fun of coming in here. CONS * Allergies - it wasn't clear what all everything was made with so if you're trying to avoid gluten or peanuts or eggs, I didn't see much on ingredients. I know for some people that's a red flag. * The tea. We just thought it was above average but not amazing. I mean its right in the name, come on. * Collecting items - you gotta look for the little trays and the salad tongs. That's what you use to grab stuff out of the cases. I know for most people that was super obvious but it wasn't for me. * Summertime note: during the hotter months I've noticed they seem to have some issues with keeping things cool.

Cute, trendy, clean establishment in a family friendly, safe area. We enjoyed every bit of our orders. No complaints about the service. I was sooo impressed, I even bought a t-shirt.

If you have an extreme sweet tooth and love ice cream, this is the spot!!! Situated in Pike & Rose,…read morethis is the perfect after dinner sweet treat! Known for the build your own ice cream sandwich, it offers a variety of ways to enjoy your sweet treat. You can build a sandwich with the cookie of choice, have your ice cream via a bowl with cookie or brownie, or go for a classic waffle cone. Once you choose your preference and flavors, they allow you to add additional toppings such as heath bar crumbles, hot caramel and more. The first time I went I got a cookie sandwich with caramel. It was wayyyyy too rich and sweet for me but very enjoyable. The second time I went I got classic waffle cone with caramel pretzel fudge ice cream (which is now my go-to). There's not a time when I go that the service is lacking. The staff is consistently friendly. They also have drink options to wash down all the sugar. Inside, There are only 2 dine In tables, however, they do offer bar like seating inside and bar seating and dining tables to enjoy your treat outside (weather permitting). I definitely recommend this spot. Who doesn't love ice cream?! Welcoming for all ages and demographics, the experience is always good when I go. And service is always quick! Recommend!

I want to love this place but it really doesn't love me back…read more PROS * Nice menu, some healthy food options * Coffee is above average for the area and better than Starbucks * Love the outdoor area, good service CONS * The emphasis on liquor kinda kills the coffee shop vibe. I get that's way more lucrative than coffee but I mean ... insert the name of the shop. * Food is higher priced for smaller portions and lately has not been good. I most recently ordered the Impossible Burger (which I've ordered before) and it was *not* good. * The big TV running what looks like a looped investor presentation, which is weird and distracting. I get that I can sit outside away from it but you can't do that year-round and when it's very hot or very cold you get an eye full of ... whatever that is.

I'll never not appreciate Julii!!! Located in this super cute standalone in Pike & Rose, it mixes…read moreFrench and Mediterranean cuisine! I usually grab takeout but am happy that my friend and me were able to dine in. Tip: reservations are highly suggested as the restaurant does fill up. I can't remember the name of the cocktails that we ordered, but they were both super cute and refreshing! For starters, we ordered Brussels sprouts, which were crispy and super flavorful. I ordered the Julii burger (medium well) and my friend ordered the steak frites. We shared our dishes, which was smart of us. The burger is always a 10/10 and the steak was good too! Our server was also very pleasant and helped us with our drink choices. The place was clean and the ambiance was perfect for a Tuesday evening meal.

Ive only come here a few times, and its good location…read more This store is perfectly located to run errands, or enjoy a day of strolling around the Pike and Rose area. Parking is annoying though, as street parking located directly outside the shop stays full, so you're either circling a few times, then nervously trying to hurry up parallel park so to not hold up the street traffic, or suck it up-and park in the garage, which is a bit of an annoying hike if you're making a quick stop. Overall, the customer is nice, but a bit jaded and young acting, but nothing to truly complain about. Plus, they probably come across a lot of personalities. My main go-to is iced matcha lemonade, which they have made very well (bravo), and they follow instructions. I love the decor in the shop though..my favorite out of the locations I have visited. Highly recommend!
