    CRAVE was popping on a Friday night! Stopped by a little afterwards 9pm (they close at 10pm) and they were quite busy. There's several tables inside to enjoy your sweet treat and luckily we were able to grab one of the last ones. There's a menu on the windows entrance, but otherwise you scan their QR code. In addition to the three page menu, they have a sign with monthly specials as well. Decided to make my own treat - chocolate bubble waffle with Oreo filling, pistachio ice cream, brownie toppings, and chocolate syrup drizzle. The waffles are made to order, so definitely have some patience. Even though they were busy, many order was ready in about 5 minutes. Man was it good! I really enjoyed the pistachio ice cream, which had pistachio pieces. I could barely taste the Oreos in my chocolate waffle, but it was still pretty good. I also enjoyed the brownie pieces, which I thought went well with my ice cream. If you're CRAVE-ing a late night treat when in Baltimore, definitely consider giving CRAVE a try.

    Diane and Vlad are such awesome hosts. We arrived early and they welcomed us right in! We were the first customers in and their attentiveness was so genuine. I missed out on the recent event and a dear YELP friend filled me in on the deets! For sure peep at the menu because offerings here are abundant. The space is bright, and pristine. Love a clean space, the boards are digital but print outs are available and scan codes for ease of access directly on your mobile! I didn't waste any time and went for the masterpiece that is the original waffle Dubai Chocolate. So much about this on social media and variations of all sorts, Crave's take on it is brave and outstanding! Decadence of that pistachio ice cream with kataifi, pistachios, and chocolate all folded in a fresh made to order bubble waffle greatness... don't stop won't stop. Sigh, I'm still drooling my A1C hasn't returned to normalcy yet. lol yummms. Plan your visit because parking in Little Italy can be an adventure itself! Go see Diane and Vlad at CRAVE! Note: bottled water sold separately :-)

    The space has modern clean aesthetic with chairs that proved to be pleasantly comfortable. The staff is helpful and friendly. Crave can get crowded pretty quickly but we were lucky enough to walk in at a lull in the line where there were only two folks ahead of us. Immediately after we placed our order the line exploded again. By the time we got our food the line was out to the door again. Definitely a popular spot and worth the wait. The kids enjoyed their S'more crepes but I didn't try it. I was too busy devouring the Candied Fruit waffle (I think it was the first on the menu). That was absolutely delicious! Hot waffle with strawberries, bananas, whipped cream and white chocolate flakes on top of strawberry ice-cream. Halfway into it, my girl stole mine and gave me hers. That was a build your own option on a chocolate chip waffle with chocolate chips, cheese cake bites, blueberries, strawberries, on top of caramel crunch ice-cream. Also very delicious but notably sweeter after the Candied Fruit. I ate till I was nearly bursting. Word of advice, if you have dinner before coming here walk around for a bit or you will be overly stuffed because it's good enough that you want to keep eating even if you don't actually have space, LOL!

    I was across the street picking up my food and had a sweet tooth so I finally decided to try Crave. I got my order to go only because I wanted to eat my dinner before having dessert. I know having it to go is nothing compared to how good it may taste having it right away. The interior is very cute and cozy. It gave me coffee shop vibes. I ordered the blueberry cheesecake waffle. In theory, all the ingredients sounds amazing but I didn't care for the cream cheese filling with the ice cream because it gave off a strange aftertaste. I definitely plan to come back and will try another waffle and have it fresh.

    Dubai Chocolate Strawberries

    Drove all the way from Pennsylvania to get this! Nah, jokes aside I did have this in mind when I was still back home, saw them on good old TikTok and knew that I would be stopping when I came to Baltimore. This cup was loaded with strawberries, which was expected since it isn't cheap, and just enough chocolate and pistachio that I wasn't overwhelmed with sweetness which is big for me. Strawberries were fresh, the actual pistachio crumbles were a great touch along with the pistachio cream, & the crunchiness of the roasted kataifi made it fun to eat! I'm still torn on the chocolate, not sure if I was a major fan and couldn't tell if it was just syrup or actually melted, but regardless it all worked out and blended well. I walked 30 minutes total from where I was previously just to order it, so that wasn't my greatest decision, but at least I got some exercise before I inhaled this! The 2 girls working were very polite and in a good mood, even got a compliment on my outfit! It took probably two minutes for them to throw it together and send me on my way! They're located in a veryyyy tiny shop and I did see that they were relocating soon so keep your eyes peeled for that!

    Fun concept, good service. Standard ice cream with good toppings and bubble waffle was yummy! Probably could split.

    I visited Waffle-Licious to of course try the viral Dubai chocolate strawberry cup. Now I have personally made a Dubai chocolate bar before myself at home and loved the taste so my judgement can be a little unbiased. I think Waffle-Licious version is good but can be better, I believe the Kataifi could be a lot crispier than it is presented in this cup. I was a little disappointed it got soggy quick in my cup but that could be due to the chocolate. Then the chocolate I feel like could have been a lot richer. The chocolate tasted more like chocolate syrup instead of melted chocolate. The strawberries were perfect and super sweet. I would love to see some improvements if this cup continues on because I would love to come back.

    Disclaimer: I only came here looking for the Dubai chocolate strawberry cups. This survey does not reflect their regular menu items. The staff was great, greeted me upon entering and was happy to help. The store is very clean and well maintained The strawberry cup was highly underwhelming: 1. They do no use pistachio butter, tahini, and katafe combo. It was a light pistachio based sauce which was lacking in the richness. 2. The katafe was not toasted and hence not crunchy. 3. Chocolate sauce was also light and not rich unlike others I have tried.

    I'm a huge fan of bubble waffles and I'm glad they're becoming more popular. These definitely satisfy and are made hot and fresh (which melts the ice cream a bit faster, but I didn't have any issues with it dripping all over due to the cardboard cone). Great options for flavors and combos, and as a chocolate lover I got the the all chocolate one. Clean, roomy, well-lit space with efficient staff that know the menu and are happy to walk you through it. I visited on a weeknight past 8pm and was the only visitor for a bit, so I got served within a few minutes. Definitely a dessert place worth trying out and returning to!

    What a wonderful treat! I got a bubble waffle with half strawberry and pistachio ice cream, strawberries, bananas, and sweeten condensed milk. It was put together so beautifully. The fruit was fresh, the ice cream and waffle simply perfect. The employees there are so sweet and helpful. They let me know that the ice cream is locally sourced from Takari Brothers of Baltimore. The place is clean and new, with plenty of chairs and tables. I am already craving another waffle and so I'll be back.

    Yummy waffle cone!

    I got the make your own bubble waffle & it was yummy! Original w/ oreo filling, marshmallow creme & caramel crunch ice cream. It was a bit drippy- very worth it.

I went on a Saturday morning around 9:45 and waited about 25 minutes for a table for 2. The menu is EXTENSIVE and they have an option for pretty much anything you're in the mood for! I got the Mexican egg scramble and the pumpkin pancakes to share. The prices might seem slightly on the higher side for a breakfast place, but once you get your food you'll understand why. The portions are generous and the food is delicious! I ended up taking half of the food home and I genuinely looked forward to eating it as leftovers - which fed me for multiple meals. 12/10 would recommend the pumpkin pancakes no matter what season it is. They come with white chocolate chips, fruit, and a caramel drizzle on top. The French toast also looked incredible so I'll be sure to order that the next time I go! I

    SKIP THIS PLACE. If you do end up here, BE AWARE THEY WILL NICKEL AND DIME YOU…read more Met a friend here for 9:30am breakfast. shortly after being seated, a staff member decided to CRANK the music - it was Evanescence or something similar - either way it was obviously someone on staff's absolute favorite song and they decided to turn the volume so loud that it was difficult to have a comfortable conversation. It's 9:30am, I'm not trying to scream over 90s pop music to have a conversation with someone two feet away from me. The menu was a QR code on a dirty, laminated card stuck to the table. My friend and I each ordered an entree plus a short stack to share. Neither of our egg dishes came with toast so we ordered that on the side. All they offer is white, English muffin or biscuit. I ordered the white toast and it is the 2" thick, low quality, tasteless white bread they use for their French toast. Whatever. The utensils are one step above plastic - they are light-weight, cheap, rough edged crap you might imagine in a prison. Whatever. The plastic containers of half and half were already on the table, sitting there at room temp. Again, whatever. The waitress dropped off the bill, said to use the QR code to pay unless we were using cash, then took off. If we wanted to split the bill, I guessed we would need to wait for her to come back around. So, I offered to pay the astoundingly high bill. I open the QR link and the first things that popped are the tip options with 20% pre-selected. All told the bill was $97 for two people. When I got home I glanced at the itemized bill: *They charged us $16 for two cups of coffee with one refill each. *a 20 % tip was already included! Apparently, they add 20% onto checks over $50. Of course it's over $50 when you charge $16 for mugs of coffee, and $$ for sides of crappy white toast. Make no mistake, this is my fault for paying with the QR code and not combing through the itemized bill first. I guess I'm not used to going to neighborhood joints expecting to get fleeced. My suggestion: go around the corner to Spoons Cafe on Cross St: high quality food and you won't feel robbed blind when you look at the bill.

There is also a little shopping area where they have loaves of bread and other goodies to purchase.

The smoke notes to the chai were prevalent but not over powering - a unique twist. We ordered a pistachio baklava croissant to share - flaky and and filled with pistachio paste inside. I would recommend it! For our meals we had the Egg & Cheese Biscuit, Ham and Cheese Béchamel Croissant and Egg White Omelette. They were all good and filling. Our service was good, but relaxed towards the end - started out attentive but we were done with our meals quite a while before someone came over to ask if we needed anything or offered the check. We really didn't mind since we hadn't caught up with each other in a long time, so appreciated not being rushed out of there. We also were in a back corner, so may not have been the most noticeable. Everyone was really friendly who worked there. Loved the open kitchen concept where you could watch them making all the donuts and croissants. The ambiance was so on theme even to the details in the restrooms and the lighting fixtures looking like whisks! Will definitely return in the future.
