I syopped here while running errands and Frederick. I wanted to try a good ube latte, and they…read moredefinitely did a good job. It was delicious. They had a lot of delicious pastries and cakes as well. Plenty of parking options and other shops and stores in the shopping center. Its a small spot, but it was perfect to take my latte to go, and was a cute set up. Service was excellent and the prices were petty comparable.

Went to stop by here on Friday 12/19/25. I don't often leave negative reviews but because the meat…read moremix-up is a serious issue, not a small mistake. My gf and I ordered chicken adobo to share and was told it was chicken. After eating it, we realized it was clearly pork. When I brought this up, the staff did not believe us and continued to insist it was chicken instead of taking the concern seriously. They didn't even try to look at the bowl they served me. Let me be clear this is not just about preference serving pork when a customer is told it's chicken can have major religious and dietary consequences. Many people avoid pork for religious reasons, and dismissing that concern is unacceptable. Accuracy and transparency with ingredients are basic expectations, especially when it comes to meat. We got a few baked good we got silvana was good. The biko was gods cooked well the sweetness was balanced. The restaurant was clean and quiet. The vibe was chill. But that doesn't outweigh the impact of being misled about what I was eating. Trust is broken, and I won't be returning. Gwenies need to train their staff and they need to clearly label meats and take customer concerns seriously especially when religion and dietary restrictions are involved. I have been a fan of Gwenies for years and would even travel to their original location in Rockville MD. Please make sure you check your bowls get to her correct meat you order! I won't be returning such a shame.

This charming, local ice cream shop is a favorite in the community. We stopped by after dinner at a…read morerestaurant. We intentionally declined dessert at the restaurant with the intention of visiting this cozy ice cream shop. The interior is very small and a line easily forms outside of the front door. We ordered butter pecan and caramel pistachio. I really enjoyed the creamy texture and the mild caramel flavor of my ice cream but the pistachios seemed a bit too soft. Nevertheless, overall I loved my choice. The hubs enjoyed his butter pecan but said that his socks weren't knocked off. He felt as if his ice cream texture was a bit off. I loved the relaxing vibe and community spirit. There was also a lovely variety of flavors, including a dairy-free option. They also give away free fast-acting "Lactaid"-type tablets. I would definitely return!

Cute little ice cream shop in downtown Frederick. The space inside is pretty small, so several…read morepeople were waiting outside while orders were being placed, but the line moved steadily. There was only one employee working when we visited, but he handled everything with a great attitude. He was friendly, polite, and never seemed flustered despite staying busy. The ice cream itself was delicious, and the portions were generous. I got the butter pecan, while my daughter enjoyed the chocolate love and mint chocolate chip. Both were flavorful and hit the spot on a warm day. My only disappointment was that they didn't have a traditional cookies and cream flavor. The only option was a coffee Oreo version, which wasn't for me. Other than that, they had a nice variety of classic flavors, several cone options, and basic toppings. Overall, a great little local ice cream shop with friendly service and generous scoops. We'd definitely stop by again.
