What a gem Jackie's Sweets is! The name is perfectly fitting, not just for the yummy pastries and…read morecakes, but for the delightful staff as well. This was my second visit, and once again, everyone was incredibly patient and nice. The atmosphere is bright yet cozy, they have plenty of books and a lot of room to catch up with friends or settle in for some work. This time around, we tried the Coco Cloud Matcha. If you enjoy fun and funky beverages, this is a must; it's a blend of coconut water and matcha that somehow tastes sweet and milky while remaining both rich and refreshing. I'm not sure how they pull it off, but I'm obsessed! If you prefer a more traditional option, the Strawberry Matcha is a decadent choice, I love that you can actually taste the fresh strawberry compote. We also had the Tres Leches Coffee, which featured a perfect balance of creaminess and bold espresso notes. We ordered it hot this time, and while I personally find it ideal iced, it's wonderful that it works so well both ways. For treats, we chose the Dulce de Leche cake. While the sponge wasn't quite as moist as I expected, the overall flavor was superb, especially with the addition of the meringue. To balance the sweetness with something salty, we added a savory spinach and feta pastry. Definitely ask for it to be heated for the best experience!Not pictured, but equally noteworthy, were the empanadas. They offer both beef and chicken, served with a delicious green cilantro sauce. Whether you need a quick caffeine stop or a productive place to get some work done, Jackie's Sweets is the place to be!

Jackie's Sweets truly delivers a top-tier Dominican cake experience. I've had the chance to try…read moremany Dominican cakes throughout my life, and this one stands out on another level. We tried both the original and the pineapple versions, and they were incredibly well done--perfectly moist, flavorful, and balanced without being overly sweet. The hospitality of the owner made the experience even better. The environment was warm, welcoming, and really pleasant. I went with a friend, and we ended up staying a bit longer because it's just a great space to relax. We also had coffee, and I highly recommend the mocha latte--smooth, rich, and the perfect complement to the cake. There are so many tempting choices, and overall it's just a great place to visit. Especially during the winter months, this is a cozy spot to hang out, enjoy great desserts, and feel welcomed. Highly recommend Jackie's Sweets.

The drink itself is a bit watery and the tapioca pearls taste like those you can make at home by yourself. The texture of the pearls is too soft, and not very chewy.

The exterior also normally has cool promotional drawings. But in all, this store feels like they value appearance over taste.

The creativity of the drinks really stood out, and the quality was definitely there. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend this spot if you're looking for a cute, chill café in the area.
