To say that this is a "hidden gem" doesn't do this place justice. It's located next to Now and Then…read moreAntique Mall (another local gem) on College Drive in Orange Park. While Yum is a destination spot for baked goods and custom cakes, they also have a market that features a variety of treasures made by local vendors. Homemade bath and kitchen products are abundant, as well as jams and jellies, funny signage, clothing, and so much more. If you're in need of a creative and unique gift for any occasion, then Yum is the place to check out. Whether I've needed goodies for my days off or stocking up for a TV marathon night (Stranger Things 4 in one shot), YUM has always had me covered. I could sit here and tell you all of my favorite desserts, but then this review would turn into a novel. I will say that I leave there with at least two scrumptious cupcakes and several bars. Their 5 (or is it 6?) layer bar is outstanding and reminds me of the ones my Mom used to make for the holidays. It's like the one from the Eagle Condensed Milk can recipe, but so much better. If you see these in the dessert case, GET IT....or get 5, like me. They have a Facebook page, where they keep you up to date on upcoming sales and events, as they have loads of different products coming in from day to day. I love that everything is made from scratch and that they're supporting our thriving local community of artists. Yum a Southern Market is well worth the trip, whether you're in the neighborhood or from out of town. A big thank you to the owners and the staff for bringing us such a special place! One important thing to mention is that they are closed on Sundays and Mondays! Till next time, my fellow Yeeps, SUPPORT your local eats and businesses, and as always...SYOY!

If you're looking for a good place to get some ice cream, don't settle for the freezer section at the grocery or the overpriced national/global chains. Head to Maggie D's and be thankful that there are still a few local places like this out there.

Home made ice cream that is delicious. I do wish they had a few more flavors. I like that they have a variety of cones, some chocolate covered with sprinkles. You can get toppings, sundaes and shakes. The 2 high school aged kids working were pleasant and knowledgeable about the products. There are tables if you want to eat in the shop. They gave a few claw games as well. I also noticed a freezer with prepackaged take home ice cream sandwiches and cakes on the way out. We will be coming here often

I tried the tiramisu latte and the sampler platter, which was a great way to try a little of everything all delicious and full of flavor.

Who does that?!? Someone who cares about the quality of their food and their customer. I noticed biscuits and gravy on the breakfast menu, and I am a snob and love biscuits and gravy, but I am pretty picky. They let me try their gravy, and let me tell you, it was delicious! Just peppery enough for a bit of a kick, with nice large pieces of sausage. I was drooling over my little taste of this. They make their own biscuits as well, so I will be back soon for this. Restaurant is in a strip mall of sorts, and doesn't "stand out", but inside it is cozy and quite cute. They have a case full of keto desserts that looked amazing! I will be back, and as they serve breakfast all day - no one says you have to eat biscuits and gravy in the morning - right?!

The staff were attentive, informative and proud of their offerings. I asked about what appeared to be Napoleon cake and they did indeed carry Napoleon cake. I'll try that on my next visit. That's not common here in the south. Inside is clean and quaint. I really nice place to have a coffee and dessert. My wife tried some low carb options. See Laura A in Jacksonville for more details. I had the carrot cake and the Snickers cheesecake. Both really solid. The carrot cake was moist and the icy really light. The cream cheese icing came through but was not overwhelming. The Snickers cheesecake had all that was best about both and when eaten, just melded into one delicious bite. Nothing too sweet, everything balanced really well. We'll be back to try more. I highly recommend you give Wicked Batter at try. Really good bakery/cafe.

Love their milkshakes and all their food items! It has the 50's drive-in feel vibe going on. You park and they walk up to your car and take your order. Or you can get out and walk up to the window. Back in the early 1990's when I was working as a truck driver out of Jacksonville a few times a month I would stop by Powell's for lunch when traveling through Starke. Today we ordered a milkshake. I ordered the Cookies & Cream Milkshake and it was delicious!!!! The waitress was very friendly. It took maybe 5 minutes to get our 4 milkshakes for all of us. * Definitely recommend you stop by Powell's for lunch/dinner/snacks while traveling through the Starke area.

It is truly such a disappointment when I spend years raving about an establishment to scores of…read moreother foodies just to find out that when I return after a couple years, things have gone completely and utterly downhill. As a high-performing young person in the food industry and retail industry in the past, I usually give young people the benefit of the doubt working in a setting like this one. However, this most recent experience was an absolute sh*tshow from beginning to end. It cannot possibly be that difficult to take an order from the counter or the calculate the price of 3 items. Somehow these team members made it look like it was more difficult than rocket science, and did so at the slowest rate of any burger joint I've ever seen in my entire life. From not being greeted once, to taking 10 minutes to even get to pay, to absolutely no apology for how long it took or even a "thank you" or "have a nice night." I can count on one hand the times I've ever left an establishment without leaving a 20% tip but I've never seen a more deserving group of people to do it to. As for the food - who would've guessed that bagging corn nuggets before getting the burger it took 10 minutes to make would result in a barely warm bag of corn nuggets? More mysterious, however, was how in the world the burger wasn't hot after all that time cooking. Do yourself a favor and walk away if it takes you 3 minutes of standing directly in front of the team members who are at the counter with no greeting. Don't give them the benefit of the doubt, no matter how much you once loved it. I'm grateful for the experience to teach me to stop vouching for small town stops if I haven't been there myself recently. Here's to hoping no one I recommended this place to recently has gone, or that they had a better experience than I did!
