Other places I've tried in the past were unable or unwilling to do the designs that I asked for so he ended up with a regular old birthday cake but not this year! This year he got exactly what he wanted thanks to Stephanie at Sassy Cakes. I always support small businesses and this is definitely a small business I'll keep in my contacts. She is friendly, creative and had my cake ready in 2 days. Thanks Stephanie! This year I got to give my son the best cake ever and he loved it. Not only was it awesome in appearance, it was moist and delicious as well. I'll never buy a cake anywhere else again!

Practically, right in my own back yard, in the heart of the Historic Old Southwest, in Roanoke,…read moreVirginia, I discovered one of the Star City's best kept secret. This quaint Bakery & Coffee House, found inside a beautiful Victorian house. After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new restaurants and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. And Albemarle Bakery & Coffee House is the perfect example. Today, I woke up early in the morning to go have breakfast there and try it out. I arrived at the Coffee House not long after it opened. Housed in a beautifully renovated Victorian house in the exclusive neighborhood of the Old Southwest in Roanoke, Virginia, it had a simple, lovely landscape and a sign of the small business up front. I walked up the stairs to the porch and there was a sign hanging that said: "Come in. We are Open." I did as the sign said and found myself in what at first seemed like an empty house, but after going to the back room through the dining rooms, I discovered the ordering counter and kitchen, where the coffees were made. A friendly young lady by the name of Jennifer greeted and welcomed me to this place. Then she took my order. I ordered a Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Bun, a Morning Glory Muffin, and a large Café Mocha. Everything was baked fresh and my coffee was made at the moment. When everything was ready, the server brought the items to the counter and I brought them to my table. Everything tasted wonderfully. It was nice to have a bakery so close by. I also enjoyed the ambiance inside this renovated Victorian house which was decorated with several paintings, beautiful Tiffany style chandeliers, and besides the dining rooms also had a Little Library room. While I was there, several regulars came by, who had been coming for years. And you could clearly see that they enjoyed having this Bakery & Coffee House here in the middle of their neighborhood. I highly recommend this place to anyone who lives in the neighborhood, and to those who don't, come by and give us a visit, this is the perfect excuse to do so. And besides the baked goods and coffee, you will be able to appreciate why this neighborhood is referred as the Historic Old Southwest and deeply valued as such.
