    Cinnamon roll and gingerbread latte.
    Brian S.

    Wanted a unique coffee and bakery experience - found it! The quality was evident from the pastries to the drinks. The owners are behind the counter - a testament to their commitment to making a great experience. The pastries were delicious, the drinks were good and uniquely crafted. Comfortable ambiance in a homey environment fits into the small town vibe Fro Ro is pursuing. Highly recommended and definitely worth a revisit.

    Visited Melania's every day I was in Front Royal! A must try if in town! The pistachio vanilla latte was AMAZING! The pastries and paninis we tried were also very good! Cute place, friendly staff! Check it out!

    Is this the cutest cafe in Front Royal? I haven't tried all of them, but I'd already put money on that bet. The place was busy but service was super friendly. I was undecided what to order, but the barista gave me the low-down on how they made a cake for a wedding and loved the recipe so much they decided to continue the recipe for a little while longer. That sounded amazing, but the caramel apple cheesecake also looked amazing. Instead I ordered a cardamom latte with quiche. The server brought the later to my table when it was ready. The cafe is a house repurposed as a cafe, so looks and feels very homey.

    Not only is it adorable but the drinks and food are AMAZING! It definitely has a fun decor theme and a decent amount of seating. My husband and I have started going regularly and love the consistency of how well their food and drinks are made. Staff is always friendly and we don't typically have to wait long for our items. Highly recommend! My only feedback would be for slightly larger portion sizes based on the price paid.

    Melania's Gourmet does it again. I live an hour and a half away from this gem, and am willing to make the drive because I know it won't disappoint. Between the staff, the ambiance, and the flavor of the food, it's absolute perfection. Every single thing I've ever had tastes incredible. My Monte Cristo sandwich today is by far the best I've EVER had anywhere else. Thank you for another great experience!

    Passed by from our camping trip and we're never regretting that we turned around for this cute little shop! Great food, great service and great vibes. You can tell everyone is happy to work there because the food tasted like it was made with love. The best scone I have ever had unbelievable!!

    Cinnamon Roll

    They weren't kidding when they said there are no wrong options at Melania's Gourmet Bakery--everything we tried was absolutely delicious! The bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit was exceptional. The biscuit practically melted in your mouth, and the ratio of bacon to egg to cheese was spot on--perfectly balanced and satisfying. We also ordered the cinnamon roll, which was just right--not overly sweet or overwhelmingly cinnamony. The cream cheese frosting was everything, especially warmed up and melting into the roll... pure heaven. We also tried the Kickin' Chicken sandwich--pulled chicken with sweet pickles--which was a fantastic savory option. Highly recommend if you're looking for something hearty and flavorful. To drink, we had a Turkish latte, lavender Italian soda, and a vanilla cappuccino--all A+. The drinks were thoughtfully crafted and complemented our meal perfectly. We grabbed a few treats to go: the Key lime tart (so good--bright, tangy, and fresh) and the Caramel Mocha Stairway Brownie. The brownie had more of a sponge cake texture, which wasn't quite what we expected and not our favorite item, but it was still tasty. All in all, this place is a gem. Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and truly great food and drinks. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Front Royal--and if you're in town, you should go too!

    AN ABSOLUTE GEM. Everything here is amazing. I've only been twice and have been SO impressed I have already committed myself as a regular. The sandwiches are to die for- I got the monte cristo and could barely finish it. So much food and SO tasty. All the desserts and pastries are fabulous. Very unique and made by extremely talented people. I've seen two reviews say the cookies look stale- honestly, I kind of agree. I still purchased one because it was named "the ultimate chocolate chip cookie" and it didn't taste or feel stale at ALL. It was soft in the center with crispy (still somehow soft) edges! It's the perfect cookie! NOT STALE! I also agree that it's kind of pricy- and absolutely worth it. Where else will you find high quality, unique, fresh and delicious sandwiches and pastries in town? I'm passionate about this place and Front Royal is so lucky to have this! ETA: Forgot to mention the coffee is also very good Service is great, staff is kind and engaged

    Lemon Tart
    Karen R.

    I went back the next day and got a couple of tarts ... Both were delicious. If you like a fine dessert with flavor and not too sweet these two tart are a good choice. And guess what... maybe I get back tomorrow for more

    Incredible sweet pastries, fresh/savory sandwhiches and a great serving staff! I was in the area after hiking around Shannondoah and this place was just what I needed!

    Chocolate bon bons
    Mickey M.

    Wow!!! The ambiance and quality of these pastries and desserts are out of this world! If you are cruising through Front Royal, be sure to check out this cafe! We tried: peach pop tart, peanut butter cookie with raspberry chocolate chips, blueberry muffin, coconut cream pie and bon bons! Everything is handmade with quality ingredients. I loved that the peach filling came from local peach farms. The staff was friendly and made us feel right at home. I can't wait to stop by on my next trip to FR.

    Berry cake and chocolate strata
    Alissa H.

    This place was awesome! The desserts were absolutely delicious. I had the chocolate peanut butter strata and berry cake. I had a cold brew and it was very good as well. The staff were really friendly and helpful. All around it was great experience.

    We have heard great things about this bakery and being that I am half Costa Rican I had to support this local business. All bias aside the baked pastries are delicious and 100% worth the trip to Front Royal. Also they have done a great job with the interior of the cafe my wife wanted to use it a photo op and we did!

    Caramel Ice Latte with Vanilla Foam is amazing! While I didn't eat anything, everything looks yummy. If we lived closer, I'd go daily!

    I have visited this location on several occasions as it is on my way to work so very convenient…read morehowever after many very unpleasant encounters/experiences with a certain employee named "Joy" (name on her name tag) I will be taking the extra time to go to the other Dunkin location on South St. This employee Joy will be standing outside extremely close to the gas pumps and the front entrance smoking cigarettes or if she happens to be the one behind the register she might take your order or she might just ignore you but either way you can expect the rudest customer service you have ever experienced!! On one occasion I watched her almost run a customer over with a big full trashcan. I couldn't believe what I saw!! On another occasion I was standing in line behind a customer ordering and Joy was at the register taking the order, the customer proceeded to ordered a breakfast sandwich and this Joy employee says "Imagine that" as she is rolling her eyes with a look of utter disgust on her face clearly showing how annoyed she was she had to make a breakfast sandwich and these are only a few of the incidents as I could keep going and going but I won't. As a local business owner myself who takes pride in the customer service we provide I am both appalled and baffled on how Dunkin Donuts can allow an employee to be this rude daily and she continues to keep her job! Then I think about how horrible she probably treats her coworkers if she treats the customers this way! Where is the management is my question?! My family and I, as well as my huge network of people will NO longer visit this location due to this employee!! Do better Dunkin Donuts! Your customers deserve it!!! Sincerely, A local business owner

    Always Fast & Friendly Service!…read more They get the order correct and they are polite and friendly to the customers. The coffee was good! Thank you!
