The chocolate cake was delicious- so moist and chocolatey! The Oreo icing was sweet but a nice complement. Definitely tasted like cookies and cream! The red velvet cake was also delicious! The cream cheese icing was a bit strong though, and out of everything was my least favorite thing. With that said... best cupcakes I've had in a while and I highly recommend! Can't wait to try more!

Instead, I got an unexpected extra topping... bits of plastic string floating around like garnish. At first, I thought maybe it was the straw acting up, so I swapped it out, hoping that was the issue. But nope. Took another sip, and there it was again, embedded in the smoothie itself. Now I'm just sitting here wondering... how does that even happen? How does plastic make its way into a blended drink? What else have I been unknowingly sipping on all this time? I'm all for a surprise ingredient...but this? Nah. This ain't it.

Their matcha red bean brownie wasn't very sweet; I'm okay with semisweet but it was barely sweet at all. The strawberry matcha one was the best received I think. I did not get any beverages.

For the price it really should be on point every time and with every item. Pumpkin Cupcake Not nearly enough pumpkin. Yellow cupcake was extremely dry. The caramel on top was good. Just an okay cupcake. Peach Cobbler Stuffed Cheesecake I loved that it had fresh peaches. The cheesecake again was overly dense and cream cheese could have been whipped longer. The Graham cracker crust was too sweet and a bit too thick. Very nice to look at. Cobbler pieces were delicious and made well. Brown butter Cinnamon Roll Plenty of pecans on top, which was appreciated. I also loved that they weren't skimpy on the frosting. There wasn't enough brown butter or something went awry because you couldn't even taste the nutty earthiness that comes from browning butter. While the roll was soft, it had a strong yeasty taste. Good amount of cinnamon inside. Out of all of the items this was the best. Maple Red Velvet Cupcake Overly sweet. The combination of the alcohol and the maple syrup resulted in a way too sweet to consume cupcake. The red velvet just okay. This was the opinion of 3 different people that tasted the cupcake. Buttercunch Mini Cheesecake I liked the Biscoff cookies on top. The cheesecake was overly dense. The cream cheese was not blended well enough. The caramel on top was nice. I'm a cheesecake snob so I have high expectations. Service was excellent. Store is only setup for Carryout. Menu rotates each week, check their website the night before for the menu. I love a rotating menu. Only open on the weekends, again check their social for hours of operation. All in all I spent over $100 and it wasn't worth it to me. I appreciate the presentation and how all the dessert look really good. I'm a foodie, I need everything to knock my socks off with every bite. Not a place for me, maybe it is for you?

Smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet. Their mocha is also really good and always consistent.

They offer plenty of drink and food options, and the croissants I've tried have always been fresh. I also love being able to see the coffee machines in action. The staff is consistently friendly and smiling, which makes you want to keep coming back. Definitely worth a visit if you're near either location.

My friend and I showed up for a late lunch, and after I stood waiting for service for almost five minutes, the bartender finally came closer to me and said the kitchen was closed. She had been looking at me the entire time and didn't say anything or try to signal to me, so I found her behavior pretty rude. Also, I had previously visited this restaurant for happy hour and found the food and service to be average.

I cant believe that this was only my third visit. Ever since I read about Manifest Bread opening…read moreshop in Riverdale, I've meant to visit but kept forgetting to until a couple months ago and now I will make a more concerted effort to stop by on my day off. Manifest Bread not only has a neat variety of menu options but, the ambiance!!! It's a cool interior, clean bathrooms, and AMAZING STAFF! I've come twice for breakfast and once for their jambon beurre sandwich. My first breakfast included: - sweet potato bialy: interesting-in-a-good way grouping of ingredients and the crust was crisp - biscuit with butter & jam: biscuit was flaky, crisp, and yet doughy; the right amount of butter, and jam provided tartiness/refreshing bite - olive oil cake: no complaints! My second breakfast included: - biscuit with butter & jam: a must have! - basque cheesecake: I have to be in the mood for cheesecake and I'd aay it was "light and airy" but may not be the best judge here - cardamom bun: last 2 times I came here, the cardamom bun was coated in a thick white frosting, but this time, it was different, so i HAD to go for it and for a fan of cardamom, this was superbub! ABUNDANT amountof cardamom and right amount of moistness! I would have ordered a bialy again but new I was going to have a big lunch so will get it next time. The jambon beurre sandwich was not what I had expected as it was more...flavourful and salty than I would have preferred as I like a plain butter and ham on a baguette sandwich...however, you can taste the quality of the meats used. UPDATE: Went back for breakfast and this time got the mulled apple cider and: - onion poppyseed bialy: I did not need creamcheese with this and it was fine, but if you eat the crust with butter and the apple butter - yum. Crust was on the tough-chew side, but flavor profile was good. Now that I've had it again, will stick to the biscuit. - morning bun: very flaky, crisp, snd the sugar just got all over and me being a messy eater, I felt like I got the sugar all over me and sticky, too. Flavour was great, buuuut... - buttermilk biscuit with butter and apple butter: yum!!!!

Parking is challenging at peak times. The selection of baked goods is varied and fresh. The line to buy items can get long. There's a decent-sized space to "eat-in", should you want. The sweet potato/chili/pistachio bialy is quite a creation, really like it, zings big time. I've never seen that flavor combo in a bialy before and hope they keep making it. The gingerbread with meyer lemon glaze has a very deep ginger flavor that's quite memorable. Not as keen about the breads. The community sandwich loaf is too plain for me and the sourdough breads are tame.

They were the best (ube and mango sticky rice flavors). Being an Asian I can tell the creaminess of the two flavors my friend and I got.

This little spot is one of a handful in the DMV area... and it's the only one in Maryland, which makes it special. I feel so lucky to have it close to home! It's cold now, but they have a little bit of seating outside, and a handful of tables inside. There's even a little nook nestled in between walls on three sides -- that's my favorite spot. Sampling is always fun, though my favorites haven't really changed recently. I thoroughly enjoy their banana bourbon caramel, mint chocolate brownie, and banana pudding ice cream. Their seasonals tend to be bomb too. And did you know they use Sunday Morning Bakehouse's cookies for their cookie sandwiches? It's a partnership that I wasn't expecting, but I really welcome it. They're awesome. This is a great ice cream option for the UMD kids, which I'd argue can only be beat by Maryland Dairy. They're spoiled. Looking forward to returning for another scoop!
