My sister lives in Brooklyn now, and as a vegan, she ends up in a lot of juice bars. They have this…read moredistinct vibe... a wide variety of juices, some fun names, and a variety of yummy patties, mostly vegetarian, to pick from. There's a particular local chain called Veggies... and whenever my sis would come down, I would specifically request she bring some patties from there... they were just SO GOOD!! Now.... seemingly right after my sister left the Germantown area, enter BK Juices. They have brought the Brooklyn vibes to Frederick of all places, so unexpected! They have a huge picture of the bridge on the wall, and the music that they play inside is phenomenal. I could've sat in there forever... but sadly I live a whole hour away LOL. I had the berry smoothie that has cherries in it and it was so satisfying. It's nice to have the NY vibes in MD, and in such an unexpected way! I'm always looking for the best pizza :). Now, the smoothies are noticeably more expensive than my sis's spots in Brooklyn, but I absolutely love them and can't wait to return.

Solid juice bar! The place itself is relatively small and there is not much seating however the…read morestaff was nice and attentive. The juice itself came in a nice glass bottle, pre-prepared, and ready inside a refrigerator close by. You get to keep the glass bottle and there is a small description of the drink of when it was prepared and the drink ingridients itself. It is very good, full of flavor and refreshing. I would be willing to go back to try again however it is pricey of $10 for 16oz. This would be more of a splurge rather than something I would go to consistently. Would recommend to at least try once if you are a fan of juices.

How did I make it to nearly 50 years old before discovering Biscoff Cookie Butter? Honestly, I feel…read morelike I wasted decades of my life living in complete ignorance. I ordered the Biscoff Cookie Butter milkshake at Swirls Ice Cream Shop in Frederick, Maryland, and I am not being dramatic when I say it gave me goosebumps and made my toes curl. One sip and suddenly I understood joy on a spiritual level. It was creamy, rich, perfectly blended, and tasted like angels crushed up caramelized cookies and decided to bless humanity. I genuinely sat there questioning every life decision that had not previously involved Biscoff. But Swirls isn't just about incredible ice cream and milkshakes, the place has personality and it's cute. On many Saturdays they host fun events that make it feel like a community party instead of just an ice cream stop. One weekend they had Elsa and Olaf from Frozen hanging out with kids, another time they had a beekeeper featuring honey milkshakes because apparently these people wake up every day asking themselves, "How can we make life more magical?" Mission accomplished. Swirls is the kind of place that reminds you simple things can still absolutely delight you. Great people, creative flavors, fun events, and a Biscoff milkshake powerful enough to alter brain chemistry. 11/10. My life can now officially be divided into two eras: Before Biscoff and After Biscoff.

Outstanding ice cream, cheerfully served with all kinds of toppings as desired. I'm a bit of a…read morepurist, so had no toppings - just some of the best dark cherry chunk ice cream and cardamom ice cream. Husband had (and shared) cappuccino chunk, which was also extremely delicious and oh-so-creamy! Expect to be back to try the soft serve too - it's supposed to be even better than Jimmie Cone!

I've been coming to Playa Bowls for a long time and I've always loved it. The food is delicious,…read moreand I usually order delivery or visit the store. The atmosphere is also really nice and enjoyable. However, my last visit was a bit disappointing. A lady who served us had a very rude attitude and seemed like she wanted us to leave quickly. Our order was a bit confusing since we had several bowls and some were half-and-half, but I still felt she could have been more patient. I'm Hispanic, and I honestly felt she treated us differently because of that. She also started helping another customer who arrived after us while still taking our order, which felt unprofessional. This has never happened to me before, which is why I still give 4 stars. Other than that experience, everything has always been great. I'd also love if they brought back last year's summer special passion fruit bowl--it was amazing and a lot of people seemed to love it.

I visited this Playa Bowl location quite frequently due to its proximity. The Nutella Bowl (half…read moreacai and half greens) is still my favorite along with the 16oz sweet cream cold brew (with almond milk - no upcharge!). Service is friendly and the staff are pretty good at getting orders completed even when it's super busy. Suggest ordering when you get there rather than using the app especially if you're getting your order to go - your bowl is more likely to survive the drive home!
