Ok friends. This is my shortest review in history. What I'm about to say tells it all…read more THE TABLE I hope you understand. No pictures.

Well, I didn't have a great experience here yesterday, sadly, I had to drive over an hour for a DMV…read moreappointment, so I looked online and this place was highly rated. I had already chosen my "carved turkey Reuben sandwich", yum, when I first went at around 12:30-the line was out the door, so went to my appointment, hoping I could get back by the 230 close time. Returned at about 215 yay, and happily walked right up to the counter to order my lunch, when I was told they were out of carved turkey (the way the server explained it sounded like an ingredient in the Reuben was out, not the actual turkey. I asked if the "simple turkey sandwich" had carved turkey, and I was told no, it was deli meat-deli meat is so processed and unhealthy. I was super disappointed. So I opted for a Smashburger after asking how they liked it and she said it was "delicious". Well, it's not a Smashburger. It's a double burger on a nothing special bun. I was going to take the bun off and eat it with a knife and fork, and I was looking for those yummy crispy edges on a authentic Smashburger. They didn't exist. This was a double cheeseburger with very thick patties. I think they were grass fed so kudos to them for that,, but it was incredibly dry sadly, and when I saw that the bun had been toasted with butter, I put it back on and had a couple more bites, but was super disappointed-and trust me nobody loves a great cheeseburger more than I but now I love smash burgers as well!. I also ordered the Orzo cucumber and feta salad (as well as the french fries) on the side and while it was OK, it was nothing special. French fries were just meh. After all the stellar reviews I had I was very surprised that they would make a double cheeseburger and call it a Smash-burger-I wish these restaurants would stop doing that, it's misleading, other restaurants do this too. And for the money I spent, I should've just gone to Shake shack! I DO think it's worth a second chance, and I will say everybody there was very kind on the Service level and it's an adorable, really beautiful spot and vibe ! I strolled around and looked at the merchandise afterwards. So hopefully I'll be back but just super disappointed I didn't have a nice meal and left hungry.

This bakery has really good reviews so I thought I would give it a try…read more Hungry for a sweet treat, I ended up buying 2 Crème Horns and a Chocolate covered Peanut Butter Ball. The Peanut Butter balls are delicious. The Crème Horns are delicious as well but filled with buttercream which was too sweet for my liking. A lot of bakeries use buttercream and I wish they didn't. The pastry itself was crispy, light and fluffy and topped with powdered sugar. They have a lot of choices of lovely decorated sweets, cookies, pies, candies and cakes. I was greeted by a young lady who was eager to check me out and move on with her day. The interior was as expected. Locally owned and operated. I can't wait to go back and sample more. Their carrot cake looked delicious.

Amazing!!! The best little coffee shop in town!! Would return if I'm in the area. The bagels were…read moredelicious that I ate one and ordered another and made my husband split it with me.

Oh what an amazing place. We waited for a long time at 'The Table' and then found this as a…read moresubstitute and thank god we did. Here is the summary of my experience here: 1) Ambiance 5/5: Cheerful contemporary inviting vibe. The seating is limited but I believe this is mostly a to-go coffee place. There is a couch and about 4-5 2-seater tables 2) Service 5/5 - The service was delightful. I had few questions about the bagels being vegan and they patiently heard and found out about it. Good news - Most of the bagels are vegan :). The girl in the front taking orders was very patient and helpful 3) Food 6/5: I am neither a fan of bagels not do I like coffee but I got them both. Here is the review: a) Iced Vanilla Latte - I did not want to have it but when I took a sip from my wife's cup, I was forced to get myself one too coz it was really good. b) Blueberry Bagel with cream cheese - This was another hit. Great bagel and cream-cheese. FYI - I am not a bagel connoisseur so I might be wrong but I loved the taste. 4) Value for Money 5/5 - Totally worth it in my opinion. If I am ever back in town or anyone is tired of waiting in line for the Table, ditch it and instead come here The Good: 1) Ambiance 2) Service 3) Iced vanilla latte 4) Bagels (they are mostly vegan) Not so Good: 1) They dont have sandwiches. 2) You need to toast your own bagel

I needed a cake for my baby shower and it was so last minute, like in 3 days type last minute and she said she'd do it for me which was so incredibly sweet. She did exactly what I wanted and more. She is such an incredible and talented baker. I would give 10+ stars if I could. The cake she made is what made my whole baby shower so special and I will never forget that! I can't wait for when my baby boy turns 1 and I come to her to make his smash cake (Btw the giraffes face was coming off because the cake was melting for leaving it outside in the sun for so long but how could I not?

The real star of the show was my sandwich. I ordered the Yippy Ki-Yay Cowboy Sandwich and I'm being 100% sincere when I say it was literally the best sandwich I've ever had in my life. I don't have the words to describe how tasty and perfectly blended the flavors were down to very last bite. This restaurant is an absolute credit to not only the town of Asheboro, but the state of North Carolina as a whole. If you are ever in the area this place is an absolute must stop! Thank you Black Lantern staff, this was an unforgettable experience. 11/10

And, I have a wicked (as my friends in Maine say) sweet tooth. These two things, combined with my loathing of most things physical and you have a recipe for being a little on the beefy side. Now that is out of the way I would like to tell you about the greatest cookies on the planet...nay, the universe (what is to follow is unsolicited and I'm not a paid spokesman). Creative Cakes, LLC at 156 South Fayetteville St. here in Asheboro (their phone number is 336.626.3333) is the best kept secret in the city and they have, without a doubt, the best cookies in the galaxy (I am hoping someone wants to refute this and invites me for a private tasting of their baked goods). I shared them with a picky client and he said the same thing. You don't know me from Adam so you'll have to go try one or fifteen for yourself. When you do, tell them the fat guy from the Asheboro Magazine sent you.

I stopped by after they had been open for about two weeks and was impressed by the sheer number of offerings: breads, cookies, cupcakes, pastries, cheesecakes, quiches, coffee, tea, and more. The employee on duty was patient and helpfully explained a few baked goods I hadn't encountered before (Kouign-amann will have to happen during a future visit). I ultimately settled on a peanut butter-banana coffee cake and a chocolate croissant. The croissant was buttery but dense rather than light and flaky. That density extended to the coffee cake as well, where it was more welcome. The peanut butter-banana combo made for a winning pair, and the topping was tasty as well. Given the pricing, service, availability (open every day except Sunday), and more, Rocca's is a must for anyone in Greensboro with a sweet tooth.
