This location has been open for about a month, and its arrival was highly anticipated because it is…read morethe only bagel shop in the immediate area. There are several other locations, with Maynard being the newest. I wanted to love it here, but sadly the bagels are underwhelming. If you did a blind taste test with a grocery store or Dunkin Donuts bagel, you would not be able to tell the difference. As someone said in their Google review, the bagels are chewy and don't have a lot of flavor -- but if that's the way you like them, then you may have a different opinion. I wanted you to try the lox and cream cheese bagel, but the prices here are crazy high. Given my less than exciting last two stops here for a bagel, I can't justify the cost for a bagel with a tiny bit of smoked salmon. The one thing that may save this place is their pastries. I don't know if they're made in house, but they all look AMAZING and I'll definitely give those a try when I want to splurge on a dessert item. They had some chocolate muffins/cupcakes with the white spiral across the top that I almost broke down and purchased, and they had cookies, coffee cake and some enticing muffins. (I'll update my review when I give some of those a try.)

They have very comfortable seating inside and outside. The outside seats are right next to the Nashoba Brook. The location is only 200 yards from the Bruce Freeman Rail trail. It's great for taking a nice long walk after eating lunch. This is my favorite spot to stop for a latte and a sandwich or an iced tea with lemonade when it's too hot for a latte. BTW Nashoba Brook Bakery is AKA Slow Rise.

I craved a special cake for my birthday that was not on their extensive cakes menu -- German Chocolate Cake, and was delighted that a week's notice was all I needed to score an amazingly, beyond-words perfect 10" Extraordinary beauty. Arguably the BEST CAKE I've ever seen or tasted, & that's a lotta cakes! I should write a poem about its JOYS -- yet we didn't even remember to take a photo.

Eggs were perfect but all else went south...ham was pressed ham cold cuts. Tossed on the grill and tasted like can ham. Would not be hard to upgrade to something better even if there was a surcharge. The home fries were precook and came out room temp. Every on the diner does the same thing but they are never cold. This place should be able to get this simple task right The worse part was the flatware (believe it or not). They were using old aluminum ware that in my case would make the food taste metallic. This doesn't happen to everyone but since I still have amalgam it will everyone I use 1970s flatware. I am not sure what was up with the spoon (pictured to a good one) but it was rusted or corroded. This was already in the coffee and I saw it when I removed it. Not sure how the server cold not notice this. Doubt if I will be back!

I looked around Yelp for gourmet cupcakes in the area and came across Little Feet Treats in Stow. Although the name threw me a little I contacted the proprietor and put in my order. There were a plethora of combinations to choose from as well as customizable options. I went for three dozen "simple" cupcakes (red velvet with buttercream, vanilla and chocolate (both with espresso buttercream). Paige (the woman who owns the business) was prompt to confirm my order, sent me an invoice via email later in the week and was very flexible when scheduling my pickup. I cannot, CANNOT, tell you how much people LOVED those cupcakes. I saved a few of them from the party to bring to a BBQ the next day and people were raving about them even a day later. More people talked about the cupcakes than the smoked and grilled meats! It's a bit of a hike (the business is near Honey Pot Hill Orchards) but you can't go wrong with these treats!
