Our first experience with Susanne's Bakery was during the holidays when I ordered a Bouche de Noël…read more Overall, it looked and tasted great--my French husband can confirm this. We also had the chance to enjoy coffee and pastries one morning. I had a latte, and my husband had a mocha, and both were good! Along with our drinks, we ordered a croissant, and I had a kouign-amann. Once again, my husband can attest to the quality of the pastries, given his French background. The service and the bakery's ambiance were good--clean and well set up. Seats were readily available when we visited (approximately 10 am). The parking lot is first-come, first-served, and we weren't able to park there, but we easily found street parking just a few steps away.

This review is about Harbor Cakes. I wanted the Lemon Bar Cake seen on the website, it looks…read moredelicious. I was excited to pick it up for a Birthday dinner celebration last night. The reality is it was the worst cake I have spent over $20 for. Certainly the worst I actually paid $65 for. I have attached a picture of the cake from their website that I thought I bought and pictures of the cake I paid $65 for. What you will see is the lemon filling is not the same as the pictured on their website. There is a bubble of air over the lemon filling. What you can't see is the taste. I picked this up yesterday afternoon (Tuesday). I expected a fresh cake. This cake tasted as if it sat around for several days. It could be that it was so old the filling went flat. The frosting didn't have a real buttercream taste I am used to getting from a bakery cake. As noted, I have added photos, you be the judge. I think for $65 the cake should be fresh and the frosting should not taste like it was made with Butter Flavored Crisco. If I could have found an address listed I would have taken this cake back to them for a refund.

What a fun find in Gig Harbor! My group was looking for some dessert options in the area and…read morechanced upon this cute little ice cream outside of the Harbor General Store. They have a variety of different flavors with at least one non-dairy option, with prices at $5 for one scoop. My husband and I opted for the $10 ice cream flight because why not? We tried the: Vanilla, Peach & Mango Sorbet, Mint Chip, Blackberry, Cotton Candy and Cookie Monster. While we enjoyed all the flavors, our favorites were the Blackberry and Peach & Mango Sorbet - they were both so refreshing! I want to note that since this is just a small ice cream cart, there is no seating directly around it (minus the one bench outside the store). However, these ice cream scoops are perfect for on-to-go snacking while you explore Gig Harbor's waterfront area.

After trying several of their baked goods at local coffeeshops in Tacoma area, I discovered an…read moreopportunity from social media that they were having a pop up at their own brick and mortar baking kitchen, with collab with local coffee, Civic Roasters, a few months back. I know they do not have regular open hours for just walk in purchase, but rather, they're custom order type business, but I have yet to place any custom orders so I cannot speak to that experience. What made me write this review is how accurate the owner (Brianne) described cake and desserts in the description and the baked goods taste matched 200% of the description. The pistachio cake was out of the world, so was the whoopie pie!!! I got to meet Brianne in person and she was very friendly, and was kind to explain everything about each of her baked goods she had out that day. I've tried their baked goods from pop tarts to cookies to housemade Twinkie and the creation and taste are unmatched. Single serve baked goods were more on pricier side, but well worth every bite. I would definitely order custom baked goods from here, knowing the quality and taste of products from this shop!!! Currently, you can find Spilled Butter baked goods at Cosmonaut coffee, Outer Dark Coffee, and at Tacoma Farmers Market (also known as Tacoma Broadway Farmers Market) from time to time. Enjoy!!!

We left there early and by the time we reached Gig Harbor we were most certainly in the mood for breakfast. Apparently lots of other people did to and also it must frequently that idea in town as it was quite busy. We were informed that there was a wait but it wasn't a bad one and the restaurant looked highly enticing so we put our names on the list. When we were called we sat at the bar. Which was fine... we weren't about to be choosey. We ordered our food and we enjoyed immensely when we got it. I got a waffle with strawberries and cream which was amazing! The waffle was perfection, the fruit was fresh. Just wonderful! I also saw breakfast potatoes and they looked great too so I ordered some of those too. No big surprise... they were excellent! Steve and I both got a Bloody Mary and it was so good! It had a nice, spicy kick to it and was great! Some mornings call for a Bloody Mary and this one fit the bill nicely! Steve got a great tasting omelet and he had no complaints either! It's definitely worth the wait to get a table... not a shred of doubt with that.
