Came for brunch and didn't have a great time…read more The positives were short: the bread for the sandwiches was decently tasty and the bathroom was well maintained and outfitted The negatives: -they didn't have any potatoes ready for the day so all dishes that included potatoes needed to be ordered without them as the potatoes wouldn't be ready for another hour. This effectively cut the menu in half -Waters were never refilled or offered to be the entire two hours we were here -hot sandwiches were almost all served cold and the egg was overcooked on one of them -Chicken Caesar Wrap was tiny and so was the breakfast burrito. Like tiny tiny -Food and service took a very long time (two hours from sitting down to receiving check) and the place was nearly empty when we sat down and ordered -The wrong menu item was brought out for one of our friends who dined with us -an ordered side of hot sauce came nearly an hour after the initial food was brought out -the large and small drinks were volumetrically the same despite a difference in price -things kept getting burned in the kitchen and the ventilation didn't seem to be working so the whole dining area was smoky Overall it felt like the restaurant was way more focused on aesthetics and instagramability than quality of the actual food. Which is possibly why the majority of the images available on the internet are of the restaurant itself and not the food they serve The pricing wasn't great either. overall not an experience we intend to try again

Missy the owner was wonderful to chat with and I appreciate that she didn't laugh at me too hard when I told her I want to put on plays in her place. The food is great too!!

If you know me you know I loved baked goods and after hearing good things from friends of mine I…read moredecided to give Baked a try. So Baked is a small bakery located on Main St in Emmaus, they focus on dessert side of baking, mostly cookies, bars, scones and things like that. Everything is made in the shop. They also have gluten free items as well. You can even get a salad or Iced Coffee if you want to. The baked goods were good, nice and fresh. The lime coconut bar was great, the orange cranberry scone was very good, but I was let down by the peanut butter cookie sandwich, the filling was lacking flavor. The Iced coffee was also good, I like that the ice cubes were made with coffee. The service was good, she was friendly and answered our questions and gave us recommendations. The inside looks basic but gets the job done. This place is also cheaper than I expected with the boom in gourmet cookie places charging $5 a cookie, this place is a steal at less than half that for some stuff. Overall a very good local bakery to stop in when ever your looking for a sweet treat.

It's as if I was a kid again eating an imaginary meal at a play set. But the meal is far from imaginary... With a limited menu that changes regularly, they prepare rich meals of both quality and quantity. I had a sausage and potato stuffed omelet with carmelized onions that was a very delicious monster. Quite often, home fries are either greasy, or over-cooked, or even over-seasoned, but these were perfect. It seemed as if they had just pulled the potatoes from the ground that morning. My girlfriend had the best, "meatiest" tomato soup I have ever tasted, and her gourmet grilled cheese blew my mind. (If I didn't love her so much, I would have stolen it from her!) For dessert, we had white-chocolate raspberry cookies that were yummy beyond reproach. (The cakes in the dessert display may bring people to tears.) The service was also wonderful and the coffee really hit the spot. Reservations recommended and there is parking in the rear of the establishment.

When it was brought out I was given a plain gyro. So I gave it to him thinking it was his. But it didn't have feta. So his was brought out and the server was like "that's yours and that's why I placed it in front of you." I thought that was a little rude. But I was like whatever if hey messed up my order I'll eat it. A gyro is basically my salad on bread. Then someone else came out and gave me my salad. So they just let us keep the extra gyro. That was cool. I feel bad because I could hear the staff arguing about the incorrect gyro and it wasn't a big deal. I felt like they thought we caused it. After the server was very nice. So I think maybe they were just frustrated by the situation. You can buy buckets of their sauce to go!!! Food is excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. I'd love to try the outside seating too.
