I ordered one of their lunch box cakes which is a 4 inch two tier cake that fits inside of a take away box. I asked for a cute design with two bears on it and boy did she deliver. The cake itself was adorable but also delicious. Because I mentioned it was for a birthday she even included a little candle. We had a small mishap where she got the date of when I needed my cake by wrong so when I went to pick up it was not ready, but Hannah was able to deliver me my cake later in the day and even refunded me! Her pricing is written on the website (my cake was $25) but depending on the design there will be an upcharge. I can't wait to order from her more in the future!

TLDR: Worth a visit if you're in the area?…read more Wow! Hidden gem? Forgotten favorite? I don't know, but after tasting the food, we have to get the word out about this spot. Arriving around lunchtime on a weekday, I had the place to myself which allowed me a unique opportunity to take the place in. That being said, this spot is not overly French cafe themed, but instead a classic suburban strip mall spot with nods to the French peppered throughout the menu and decor. The booth area is well-designed, the spot was clean and the table touched by light so after a great experience chatting with the cashier I was crossing my fingers, hoping the food matched the vibe. I had a crepe Mexicana (because who has ever heard of that?!), a croque monsieur with tomato soup, and a dessert crepe because y'all know I always save room for dessert. It took a minute to be prepared, but I'm willing to wait for a fresh made meal. Everything, was delicious. Crepe texture was on point, and each crepe was stuffed to the Gods. Positive experience all around. My tip: Order the tomato soup and finish your meal with the following combo- a dessert Crepe Almonds with strawberries. Trust me on that one!

It's not you. It's me…read more Crepes are a great idea in France. Inexpensive thin pancakes filled with either savory or sweet items. While French fries, French Toast, and French bread, have crossed into American cuisine without incident, not so for the street food of Paris. Why? Well, like everything, it's the $$$. For one ham and cheese crepe, I could eat a Delicious Bacon, Egg, and Cheese McGriddle every day for a week. True, I'd have no silverware, but honestly I don't care.

You know, it gives gourmet without being pretentious. The bakery alone puts Common Bond in this category. If you can resist dessert order from the display case, I'm not sure you're human! The visuals and smells are always inviting, but the execution is not consistent. This time, in addition to my savory picks, It's been awhile so I thought I'd revisit my Common Bond review. This location is such a score for City Place. The only caffeine dealer apart from Starbucks walkable from the plaza, it's easy to see why patrons choose Common Bond.

Why 5 stars? Because there wasn't much not to like!…read more --- --- --- My wife had a hankering to visit Common Bond and this was the closest location to us. I'd been to one in Houston before, but just for coffee, but I had a good experience there, so I was down to try their food. There were a ton of great sweet and savory options on the menu, so ordering was a challenge, but we ended up grabbing a pretty big combination of both types of sustenance. Savory: I ordered the breakfast burger and it was really great. Normally I feel like an egg takes away from the flavor of a burger, but that was not the case here. I'm really pleased with my choice here, despite the temptation to go with several alternatives. 5-stars. My wife ordered the soft scramble, and I'll give it this: it was most definitely the softest, most gentle collection of eggs I've ever eaten. But I think I like my rendition of scrambled eggs better. 4-stars. Sweet: Pistachio Croissant: All boxes checked. 5-stars. Snickerdoodle Cookie: I offer all of my praise for this delight. 5-stars. Gingerbread whoopie pie: It wasn't called a whoopie pie, but that's what it was. Like the snickerdoodle cookie, I'm mad I had to share this. 5-stars. Coco-nut cookie: We thought this was a chocolate coconut cookie, but it turns out it was chocolate and nuts. Knowing this information, we would have opted for one of the other, more delicious looking cookies. It was still fine though. 3.5-stars. Drinks: I ordered the dragon fruit berry concoction with my meal, and in a rare moment of weakness, I couldn't resist the maple pecan cold brew, despite ordering black coffee 99% of the time. I'm here to say I enjoyed both of them very much, but the latter did taste more like a milkshake than a coffee. 5-stars for both, but I would definitely order the dragonfruit thing again. Way to go, Common Bond. Here I thought you were just a coffee place this whole time, but your food is pretty, pretty good too.

Yes the lady sells desserts out her apartment. But still decided to give it a chance because it's a black business and I know it's hard out here. Then I finally open the bag and unsatisfactory wasn't even the word. I'm dissatisfied because I paid $8.75 bucks for the SMALLEST slice of cheesecake I've ever purchased. It was FROZEN SOLID!! Which makes me question if it's store bought Not only that I paid another $2-3 for strawberry topping that came in a rusted jar. Which makes me questions what the inside of the apartment look like. Only thing I say was good was how nice she was. Though after eeing what I bought her tactics are more of a dirty car salesman! She came out took my payment first then went back and got the dessert I guess so I couldn't change my mind after seeing the bs! I drove 30+ minutes trying to support a black owned business and left feeling PLAYED!!! Unbelievable
