As a first-time visitor from out of town, this spot earned a place on my list of coffee shops that…read moreI'd actually love to visit again! The vibe was busy but comfortable at the same time. The busy-ness was a testament to its popularity, yet it was comfy and relaxed because there was a variety of seating areas where one could enjoy their beverage and/or food. Many were reading, listening to personal headphones, chatting with friends. The atmosphere was lively. I loved that the menu had a variety of items on it... Definitely something for everyone. This is one of the few shops that have a delicious cardomom syrup. I actually ended up ordering a second beverage because the first one was so delicious!

I visited this spot this morning and had a delicious cappuccino! The barista even put a little…read morebunny on it. So I was really hoppy about finding this place. Until I entered the bathroom. And saw the "under" orientation of the toilet paper, which violates the original patent for toilet paper holders from 1891, where the paper clearly goes over the top. The "over" configuration: * prevents the roll from brushing the wall * makes it easier to grab with one hand * reduces accidental unrolling * and, most importantly, does not make decent people feel like they're living in a lawless society. What you have here is bathroom anarchy. I must admit that tile and brushed metal fixtures actually look really nice, which somehow makes the backward roll even more upsetting. It's like a beautifully plated meal served on the floor. Moreover, the ceiling contains approximately 400 judgmental eyes observing you while you attempt to live your life. The wallpaper on the ceiling (on the ceiling!!!) has a pattern based on the "evil eye" motif (sometimes called nazar), which shows up in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern design. Traditionally it's supposed to ward off bad luck or jealousy. All it does in this case is confirm the establishment has abandoned reason and at least one of the people who work has met a psychedelic mushroom. Still, the vibe everywhere else in this place is amazing and the coffees are very very good!

I had never been to Paris Baguette-and wow! I was really impressed! This location is conveniently…read morelocated off Route 26 in Frederick--so it's easily accessible from downtown, Route 15 and Walkersville. There are so many food and pastry & dessert options here (donuts, cakes, croissants)! Everything looked delicious. Plus, they have a full coffee bar! I had a huge ham and cheese croissant that was delicious! I also noticed that you can save money on a pastry between 3 and 6 daily--if you buy a menu item. I will definitely be going back for that!

Food/drinks: Ordered most the GF items they had in stock! * Peach almond cake - delicious. And fresh out of the oven. * Lavender almond cookies - also delicious. Substantial. Melty but not too melty. Needed more than two. * Peanut butter cookie - okay. Got it because I do like PB and another review praised it, but I didn't need it. It's really chewy/a little pull-y. *Lemony mint tea - it was okay. Barely noticeable lemon. Like the touch of the leaf of fresh mint. Probably wouldn't repeat. Service: Friendly and focused. Not super quick so wouldn't go if I'm in a hurry. Not a deterrent. Ambiance: Let's talk about cute! A pretty brilliant renovation of an old gas station into a bright, airy, farmhouse eclectic cafe. I took my food to go but would love to sit here for a bit. Which obviously means I'll be back.

I love Dublin so much. It's been such a pillar in the community…read more Great coffee. Vegan options. LGBTQ+ welcoming. Woman and Queer owned. Supports local vendors you can buy their merchandise at Dublin. There's a new downstairs space for introverts! You can order your coffee on an iPad bring it to you. No interaction need it. It is a different vibe than upstairs in the main space. Very quiet and modern industrial. You can even rent out space for meetings.

Among us, we had 2 bagel sandwiches, a biscuit sandwich, and a grilled cheese sandwich. I loved that there was a nice mixture of guests of all ages.

Originally when I was browsing bakeries and pastry shops in the area, the listing said coming soon,…read morebut as I was milling about on Market after getting some fragrant teas from Voila! I saw people coming out of here! I didn't hesitate, I skipped right on across the street to see what I could see. The cutest Korean bakery! The same bakery you know and love from H Mart now has a stand alone location in the heart of downtown Frederick. I took a spin around, snapped some photos and then grab a tray to load up with goodies. I love that its self-serve. You can always get the one you want without the awkward and mostly ineffective pointing and direction giving from behind the glass lol. I picked up a nice mix or sweet and savories. I think my favorite was the spicy jalapeño ham & bacon roll. It was soft, spicy, salty, and just the right amount of sweet from the dough. You can order finer pastries, coffee, and boba tea from the counter and eat in or take it to go. I'll be coming here every time I'm in town for sure!

We were driving through Fredrick on our way home & came across this cute cafe! I was originally…read morelooking for something else but when I saw this I had to check it out. It turns out it was a Korean bakery & cafe which was unexpected for the area. We got the salt bread & egg tart which were both great! They also included an extra small pastry as a bonus which was nice. As for the teas, they were on the sweeter side so I wasn't the biggest fan. I wish we could adjust the sweetness and the boba was ok, it hardened up pretty quickly. I'd return for thr pastries but not the boba.

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.

My family has stopped in here for breakfast or lunch when on the go multiple times. I'm sad to say…read morethat I wouldn't recommend them. We're all vegetarian and they do have some options but from our experience the sandwiches are so dry. Even the grilled cheese was dry and not very flavorful - seemed like dry bread and some cheese - no oil or butter or anything. Also, they don't keep ingredients in stock for some items - tried to order the veggie panini twice on different occasions only to be told they didn't have the veggies to make it. Wasn't impressed with the expensive latte either. :-/

I'd say the food is a bit overpriced but I think their sweet potato fries are very good and seasoned and their herby ranch they give on the side is very amazing. I got their beyond burger which was a good burger, nothing crazy but I really enjoyed it. Everyone who works there is so sweet too, each time I've came in someone always answers my questions. I'd say it's not that good of a place to get work done as it's always decently packed and since it's small a bit loud at times.
