All very good. It is very cozy here and it felt very welcoming. I highly recommend coming here and checking them out. I came here again and I had to get another box of donuts they are just so good.

It's somewhat small and looks to hold maybe 30-40 people. It appears to be very popular for take-out. While they do have a nice deli type menu for lunch including hot pastrami or turkey reubens, they seem to be known for their market price lobster rolls. Today the lobster roll was $21 which seemed worth it based on the amount of lobster meat inside the buttered bun/sandwich. Choices of sides include loaded potato salad or pasta salad, cole slaw, etc. I took the pasta salad. Once you order at the counter, they will bring out your food (for dining in). Once you finished, its common to "bus your own table". The folks are very friendly and the store is clean. The lobster roll was as good as they say.

Unfortunately it didn't make it out of the parking lot so I didn't get a photo. I'm lucky I got a bite because it was Delicious! The pastry was fresh, the strawberry icing was perfect and not too sweet and the filling was just right. We also went for a fresh croissant, a stuffed oatmeal cookie and a chocolate chip cookie to take with us. All so good. The oatmeal cookie was saved for the next day and pro tip, I opened it up- scraped off the icing added a marshmallow and toasted in the oven - added back the icing to the other side, smash back together and it was bonkers good. The line was long but went quickly so don't let that deter you from stopping. Sweet Al, until we meet again I will be dreaming of all your sweet treats. Now everyone go Treat Yo Self to something delicious from Sweet Al's. Love~ jane

This coffee place is a hidden gem steps away from the beach! We went on a morning beach walk and…read moresomewhere stumbled upon this 'hidden' coffee shop right off of the Tiki Hut. We were craving morning coffee, so we stopped our beach walk and headed up to Tiki Hut to go to the road, when we saw a sign for Sweet Al's. Hoping this was a coffee place, we followed the signs, and it led us to a shop in a condo complex. It was all open, so we were able to stop in! It is very small in here, but it was packed full of people and goodies! There were so many seeet treats, a vast menu, and even grab and go items. I wanted to try one of the many unique, custom drinks offered here. I asked the cashier what the best speciality drink was, and she asked if I like coconut, and I said yes! Seconds later, a huge coffee with blue foam in it appeared lol. It was very good! Sweet...just how I like it. It was coconut flavored cold foam with cold brew coffee and whole milk. It did take just a second of the drink to come out, but there was no where to stand and wait and the menu had a lot of items crossed off and paper specials hanging. This was confusing as I didn't exactly know what was available and what wasn't. A true hidden gem that I would totally come back to!

This time, me and my 16-year-old challenged ourselves by picking a treat for each other that we wouldn't ordinarily choose. I got her a cheese danish, she got me a peach fritter. The danish was too bready for me, but she loved it. And we both enjoyed the peach fritter! Wanna take it home to have with ice cream next time. Baker's Pride is where the locals go. And EVERYBODY friendly--staff and customers. While scanning the treats, a few customers started making suggestions for us. One said, "If you think you love Krispy Kreme, you gotta try the donuts here." He ain't lying! I told em I was a regular too and shared our lil challenge. We got our treats then headed over to the microwave to warm em up. One of the ladies who'd made suggestions saw me at the microwave and said, "Oh yeah, you know what you doing."

You can customize how you want your egg prepared (fried, runny, scrambled) and the type of cheese (American, cheddar, pimento), and I was quite happy with my fried egg and pimento customizations. The biscuit was flaky and tasty - definitely the star of the show. You order through a kiosk at the front of the store, and they call your name when your order is ready. In our case, we were sitting at one of the two tables out front, and they brought our order out. The seating is relatively limited.

The two guys boxing the donuts were both chatting and dancing over the donuts without any spit guards. No hygienic behavior whatsoever! Needless to say they all had the typical attitude problem too.

I was not entirely sure what a "waffle pop" would turn out to be, but I ended up with two of them in an order, freshly made and topped with one fruit and one sauce of choice. Getting bananas with blueberry sauce was a good choice, one of many I expect. My strawberry matcha with boba was compromised by them running out of strawberry boba, but the regular tapioca balls did just fine soaked in a robustly flavored beverage. Their donut selection was appealing, but I simply did not have room. It would be tough to get out of there without getting a ton of sugar, and this place did not seem to have a ton for the more niche special dietary needs. However, it did have a lot of interesting messaging as a community space, with resources directed towards military families in particular, which moves me to look favorably on the place. And their stuff is delicious.

My web search for coffee found this place just a couple hundred feet from my hotel, opening in just…read more5 minutes (7:00). So I walked over. It was not at all what I expected in a strip mall near a chain hotel. What a cheerful place, the walls yellow, the windows decorated with big bright suns, the menu boards artfully illustrated, kitchy motivational signs everywhere. I was greeted with a geniality matching the overall vibe by a woman whom it was apparent was the owner. I complimented her on the name "Sunny Summers". She told me it was named after her two daughters. There was a young girl working with her so I asked her if she was Sunny or Summer. She didn't say anything. As it turned out she was neither - just an unrelated employee. I had only come in for a cup of coffee but I saw the donuts and couldn't resist. Many of them were outrageous sugar bombs - and beautiful to look at. But I settled on a more sedate cinnamon-sugar. Glad I did. It was fried to order then dusted with the topping and served not in a bag but in a cute box sized just right for the single. So when I ate it in the car 5 minutes later it was still warm, and fresh as can be. Does she always do this or was it because I arrived just after opening? Unsure, but it was a spectacularly good donut. The coffee, too, was excellent. Strong, no bitterness or sourness, and from a local independent roaster. The other foods mostly fit in the category of sweet indulgences: donuts with crazy toppings, "waffle pops", french toast. A few lunch items like panini. The burger offering was made with pancakes rather than the traditional bun! Now a few words about the proprietor. I was astonished by her outfit that left little to the imagination. At 7 in the morning! It was hard to keep my eyes where they belonged but I managed! (Sorry, I have no photos, for obvious reasons.) I realized later, when I did more research on the place, that this was part of her shtick, playing off her reputation as retired professional wrestler Lacey Evans. Before that she was in the Marine Corps serving in the military police force. An interesting choice of careers for sure. There's a board with prepaid receipts that the less-fortunate can use to get food. That's great. I wish I had known about it when I was there, not later during my research. I would definitely have prepaid a meal. Also, discounts for military and first responders. Not necessarily how I would do things but I know her intentions were good. The world needs more places like this. So a plea to anyone reading this: You may not be able to give up your Dunkin and Starbucks completely, as I have. But just try it for a month, or even a week: next time you need a fix check Google or Yelp for independent coffee shops, try something different, even if you have to go a little out of your way. You may just discover a new favorite hangout.
