    Egg tarts
    Lindy K.

    Got egg tarts. They were decent. Underbaked in the middle, but the pastry was flaky and beautiful. The interior is gorgeous. They even have an old-fashioned menu that shifts now and then. The service and banter were what made the experience great. I'm glad students have this gem accessible to them. I wish we'd had it in our year.

    Chocolate Mole Empanada

    It's nestled between craft and convenience in Swarthmore. Though small inside, the ambiance packs a punch. From tile flooring to wicker baskets. It's always clean and pastries are neatly displayed. I have been to Pastry Pants a handful of times now. Each time I am welcomed with a smile. It's usually the same girl; whom I love seeing. I think I enjoy her service just as much as the pastries. On this visit I grabbed a chocolate mole empanada; having zero knowledge of what chocolate mole was. However, what I did know from a prior visit was the empanadas are delicious! And this one did not disappoint. It was full of flavor, the chicken was juicy, the pastry was buttery...yum. I indulged and also purchased a chocolate chip scone and millionaire shortbread. The scone had a hard, crispy exterior with a pillow soft inside. As for the millionaire shortbread, I prefer the shortbread by itself. Stop in and try a treat yourself. If you don't like any of items I mentioned. I highly recommend the carrot cake.

    They started off of TooGoodToGo very recently and I tried their TooGoodToGo. The deal is on par with Maman's TooGoodToGo but Maman's variety is better than the bag I got here. I felt it should've been priced at 3.99 since I got three pastries that looked kind of the same. Their sandwiches sounded good but didn't get a good look at the price. Place looked kind of busy for a Wednesday afternoon where place would close in one hour. This place replaced Occasionally Yours. I believe there is no seating here.

    I tried the chocolate chip cookies, ginger cookie, rice Krispy treat and chocolate chip scone. The chocolate chip cookies were super dry and brittle, not in a good way... The flavor was okay, lots of chocolate chips. The ginger cookie was much better than the chocolate, good flavor and the texture was good too. The scone was normal I guess, it was dense and dry. The rice Krispy treat was disappointing, it was really dry, needs more marshmallow and not as sweet as a regular rice Krispy treat which is fine but it should have been more marshmallowy/ chewy .

    Small bake shop in renovated carpentry shop in a residential neighborhood. Who knew that Swarthmore would allow it since they are usually sticklers. Cinnamon buns were quite tasty. Coffee is also available. Take out only and a bit pricey

    I had an itching for midday ice cream and came across this little gem. The building itself is…read moreshared with a pizza shop that has changed names a few times over the years. The inside needs a little updating and better lighting, but it was clean. Unfortunately a brand new mega Wawa opened across the street so I hope they can coexist. The owner was also my server and she was awesome! We had a great conversation about the brands of ice cream she carries, the building and her passion for the business. She recommended a peanut butter chocolate ice cream which I believe is made by Kemps which was fantastic. I went with a medium sized in a cup and it did not disappoint. It was loaded with PB swirls and rich chocolate ice cream. Cost $4 and change. I love seeing how a lot of these small Ice Cream places make the most of their limited space and this spot definitely pulls that off. Cakes, water ice, hand dipped, soft served, toppings, sundaes, etc. You have to take a trip here if you get an itching for ice cream. The owner cares, she's crafted her menu for almost 18 years. I'm a fan and you'll be too.

    Ordered takeout and it was out of this world as always. When I called they were super busy and I…read morelet them know I will wait if Chef can accommodate and I provided my order. Let them know I'm right down the street and just need a 5 minute notice and they would call back when it wasn't busy - they called me back in less than 30 minutes and said ready in 10 minutes. I love the fact that if they are too busy and can't accommodate at that time they're honest. It's a small family business the Mom is the host and probably one of my favorites she is like old school south Philly meets Mother Theresa! The chef is a perfectionist and I always try at least one special and have never regretted it. I am utterly amazed each time at the dishes he comes up with. Overall price wise they cannot be beat, huge portions and every bite was heavenly. Where can you get this much fresh, delicious food for under $100 no where except New American Bistro. It's also extremely rare to get take out and it be as good as served in the restaurant. The beet with pistachio encrusted goat cheese salad with raspberry dressing. This salad had it all! Everything was so fresh and crisp. There were so many bursts of flavor. This was a special hopefully it will be added to the menu. Rating: 5/5 Spicy crab chowder - we always order. It's my husband's favorite soup. Rating: 5/5 Blackened Scallops with Raviolis and Lobster Sauce - we always order. Appetizer size comes with 4 blackened scallops and a couple ravioli. Rating: 5/5 Maryland crab cake with Ravioli and pesto sauce. This was my first time trying and typically does not get pesto dishes. This had so much flavor and was refreshing if that makes any sense. Appetizer size comes with a very large crab cake and a couple ravioli. Rating: 5/5 Gnocchi's with Jumbo Lump Crabmeat and Gorgonzola Sauce- this is my absolute favorite dish. The Gorgonzola sauce you could drink. I dip the homemade bread in the sauce after. It's my favorite. I'm a huge Gorgonzola fan I put it on everything. The Gorgonzola sauce on this particular dish I find to be mild and perfection. I just woke up thinking of this dish it is so unbelievably good. Rating: 5/5

To be clear, I have had only one thing from them, the Lotus Bomb Cheesecake, and I didn't even have this at their location in Folcroft. However, not only was it so good that I will be going back to try their full catalogue of wonderful dessert puddings and other creations, but I couldn't help but give them an outstanding review. This is hands down the best....well, the best whatever this is that it actually is, because I can't really define what it is that they make here. The best way I can describe what I had would be if someone made some of the greatest cheesecake you've ever had, blended it up but not too fine, layered it into a container and topped it with perfectly baked (or fried) cookies, wafers, still not sure what they are, but don't care what they are because they are delicious, on top. I ended up with this delectable "thing" while I was working at a polling location on Election Day and my wife showed up out of the blue and handed this to me. She made an attempt to explain what it was and where she got it as if I should know about this place already and that it had recently, except that I simply stood there dumbfounded as the explanation unfolded. Obviously appreciative, as I had just been handed a dessert, I sat down and immediately experienced the pure bliss of the magic they are working over there. If you are anywhere nearby, pass by Folcroft, or live in Delco, this is DEFINITELY a place you need to stop by and grab everything they have. It is just that good. There's really nothing else I can say except how much I was blown away by this, and I'm not a huge dessert guy. Sure, I live desserts and sweet things as much as the next person, but I don't actively seek them out. However, now that I know about the Crumble Factory, I definitely will be.

    Hands down amazing, over all rich in flavor…read more I came across this place when someone raved about it online and I figured I would give them a try. After all I absolutely love sweets. I ordered the mango preach lemonade and it's was delicious. Ordered the strawberry banana pudding, my husband ate it all. lol enough said he's not really in to sweets. The Orio cookie banana pudding was delicious as well as all of the cheese cake I got. I will be a regular at this place. They can just take all of my money.
