The staff members were very friendly and one of the members explained how five years ago her sister started this bakery after getting so many baked goods requests. The selections the cafe had varied from healthy salads to quiche to all the baked goods you could ever want. I decided on the pumpkin bread (2 for $5) and honey buttermilk donuts ($3) - both incredibly delicious! Also, at the end of the day, their coffee is free! They offer almond milk as a creamer and have a variety of sweetness too. I highly recommend DC cakes for breakfast, lunch or a snack in between! The welcoming and clean environment as well as the delicious and well priced baked goods and healthy food options is a must!

Delicious and different. Barnyard Chicken Philly: If you're thinking this is your basic chicken philly, with big chunks of bland chicken, grilled onions and mayo plus a slice of cheese ... you're wrong. It's massive. The chicken is shredded. The onions are truly caramelized. Lots of cheese. And the side of hot pepper relish adds a sharp twist. Prime Rib cheesesteak (Friday special): Equally massive. Gruyere, not provolone, and again lots of it. Poached pear and Brie salad: Unique choice; very good. Busy place. We had reservations; had to wait only a few minutes for our table to be cleaned.

However, i have had some that I really enjoyed and I love how the flavors switch up each week, letting you try different things. Overall, solid!

While us and another party were waiting, the staff were disorganized and ended up making multiple of the same DQ treats. When we asked questions, because they were giving us a size larger, a team member walks over and asks "what's the problem?" Clearer operation, more communication and maybe some training on customer service. Other than that, My "peanut" buster parfait could have used more nuts.

Eddy's Fruit Farm - One of our favorite spots to visit in the fall! They have various apple…read morevarieties for sale, and Golden Delicious is our personal favorite. You can also find pumpkins, gourds, Concord grapes, and a little store with seasonal goodies. The staff is always super friendly and helpful, and Tom Eddy himself is often there greeting customers at the pick-your-own orchards! Pro tip: If you keep driving past the store and large parking lot, turn right, and the road will lead you to the pick-your-own orchards. The orchards are beautiful, making them perfect for photo ops, a peaceful stroll, or simply getting lost among the apple trees. We also love that Eddy's has a more relaxed, low-key feel compared to Patterson Fruit Farm, which can get pretty hectic during the fall season. If you're looking for a classic fall farm experience with seasonal produce, friendly people, and beautiful orchards, Eddy's is definitely worth a visit!

The fruit and vegetables are fresh and the prices are usually lower then you will find at your grocery store. They do a nice job of keeping everything clean and organized.

The staff is always friendly and helpful. Although a bit outside my usual neighborhood, Produce Place Market is always worth a visit to stock my kitchen when I am in the area. They have a second location on Mayfield Road.

We wanted to celebrate US, and with little discussion, chose Yours Truly as our celebratory location to lunch and shmooze. We are so glad that the restaurant was accommodating to our group of seven. A large table was cleaned for us in the back, giving us a sense of privacy. Our server, Helen, took everything in stride and hit a home run in the way she took our orders, got everything right and sorted out the individual payments miraculously. It is rare to find a place that can handle seven different orders, with all of them brought to the table at the same time. Yours Truly handled it all! Thank you for a memorable lunchtime setting to start off our week!

I wasn't really sure what to expect when they explained to me what kind of place it was, but it became clear shortly after arriving on site that their descriptions made sense, and it is very similar to a diner or what would be like a big family restaurant out in Lancaster County by me if you head towards the Amish parts of the state. What was great about this place was that it is exactly what you are generally looking for in a diner. While the food wasn't outstanding, it was good enough and the selection was huge. The staff was also wonderful. A very nice and welcoming experience that we were all able to fully enjoy and spend a good amount of time catching up on years of life and activity without anyone bothering us about time spent at the table or anything else. I ordered a tuna melt open-faced on an English muffin that was quite okay. In fact, there was nothing outstanding, yet nothing that was bad about the entire experience. If I happened to be nearby to a Yours Truly again, I would likely stop in again and try one of their many selections!
