The crème cheese frosting tastes like the same they use in the red velvet cake. So if you like the red velvet cake, you will definitely like the oatmeal cream pie! Also, these are Nick Saban's favorite cookie! Nice sitting area with fountain and shade covering outside! Perfect on a day with family! Service was quick! Everything in the window looked sooo good! Especially those warm cinnamon rolls!

I've been coming to Freddy's here in Tuscaloosa since it first opened, and while I've always had…read moresolid experiences, today was by far the best visit yet. I ordered the Freddy's Original Double, which I've had plenty of times before, but today it just hit different. The burger was cooked perfectly--fresh off the grill, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The toppings were spot on and balanced just right. When a burger is dripping with juices as you bite into it, you know it's done right. Nobody wants one of those dry, Sahara-desert burgers where you need a sip of water after every bite. This one definitely wasn't that. If the burgers are cooked like they were today every time, this place would be slam packed 24/7. The service was great too--quick turnaround, friendly smile at the register, and good food on a Sunday afternoon after church. I also noticed a Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich on the menu that looks like it might be fire, so I'll definitely be back soon to give that one a try. Great job today, Freddy's. Keep turning out burgers like that and you'll keep me coming back.

The service was, unfortunately, nonexistent…read more We stopped in about an hour before closing, so there was still plenty of time to order. If it had only been a few minutes before closing, we never would have gone in. When we walked in, the two employees behind the counter immediately seemed annoyed that customers had arrived. We stood at the front counter waiting to order for about 15 minutes. During that entire time, neither employee acknowledged us, made eye contact, or even said they'd be with us shortly. Instead, they slowly walked around, appearing visibly irritated and mumbling under their breath. I kept thinking someone would eventually help us, but after waiting that long without even being acknowledged, we finally left and went somewhere else. I was honestly shocked because I've never experienced service like that before. Unfortunately, I can't comment on the food since we never even had the opportunity to place an order.

They make pies, cookies, fudge, and full-size cakes in addition to the aforementioned cupcakes. In this sense, Sweet Treats is actually more akin to Mary's or Celebrations than Gigi's. And they take special orders, though I'm not sure if they make wedding cakes. I tried two cupcakes when I went to the shop (which is in rather odd location of 69S behind the Oil Change Store across the highway from Jim Meyers Drug South): Pea Pickin' (on the recommendation of the staff) and Granny Holland's Pecan Pie. The cupcakes are smaller than the one made at Gigi's or Sweets (but are approximately the same price) but they in a stunner, they were quite moist.
