I wanted to give this place a good review because it's my home town bakery and I want to support my…read morecommunity. Also, the ice cream cakes are good and the ice cream is decent as well. However the owner is extremely insensitivity and cruel. On several occasions, I've heard him talking down to his workers and if that wasn't bad enough, he was rude to me on several occasions as well. He's very intimidating to speak to about just about anything! I've tried winning him over with logic and kindness, but he's just awful. During my last experience, I asked him to please clean the serving spoon because my daughter is severely allergic to nuts - a practice that the workers typically do before they serve my daughter's ice cream because there are other ice cream flavors that contain nuts. He nearly snapped at me! His response was that he knew what he was doing and he went on and on in front of other customers. I politely waited until all the customers walked away and tried to reason with him. I kindly explained that my daughter is severely allergic to nuts and has to carry an epipen wherever we go. Again, he replied rudely, despite my explanation and patience. He replied that he "wasn't going to kill" my kid. I was taken back! He said all this in front of my child. We both were stunned by his insensitivity and rudeness. Honestly, I wanted to simply leave and cry in my car, but I had to show face in front of my child. I walked to the register, paid for my order, and walked away. Since then, I haven't returned. I don't know who wrote all the recent good reviews - perhaps, the owner's friends and family. I'd scroll down to read all the horrible reviews because they're speaking the truth. The owner is outright careless, nasty, and has no customer skills whatsoever. Unless you want to be insulted and treated like a peasant, I'd stay away from this place.

They are huge and so impressive everyone wanted to know where I got them from. I cannot thank Mark the owner enough for going above and beyond for me!! If you are having an occasion or just craving something sweet I highly suggest that you go to the Goodie Shoppe. P.S. the pizza, the bread, the cookies, pastries all fresh and so delicious!!!

So happy to have Reverie back but (in my opinion) even better than before!…read more This time, they're located inside the Promenade with the coolest little vibes surrounded by other great businesses: acupuncture, permanent jewelry, pop ups and more. The only "downside" here is that they don't have a full kitchen like they used to but this doesn't stop this awesome **woman owned** biz to bring her best to the table. From street corn toast to liege waffles, yes, they have nutella too :') - this place has all the basic things you need for an amazing coffee break. While covering your vegan and gluten free needs with plenty of options. I will say, the gf waffles are the frozen toaster ones (which is totally fine because no kitchen so there's options for everyone!). Can't wait to try the liege waffles next! I have my eye on the mushroom and onion avocado toast but I can assure you the street corn chickpea stands pretty great on it's own. Expect tea and coffee bags and lots of goodies available for purchase with an awesome seating area just perfect for hanging out or doing some work while you sip and snack. OK. I never get lattes and the lavender latte possessed me and made me order it. On a hot day I never even said how I wanted it. Somehow someway, the awesome barista and owner KNEW to make it cold, and I'm SO glad I had this lavender iced latte EXPLODING with lavender. Not overly sweet, just right and fully natural. Basically it didn't taste like a fake lavender simple syrup combo. Oh, best part, milk options are endless. Oat and COCONUT are in the house. Of course, I got the coconut! You can order other great beverages like the pea lemonade (the pretty purple one!!) and other plant derived natural elixirs. Can't wait to try!

Their menu is packed with fun, creative options, which makes it hard to choose just one. I decided to try the drink of the day, "Raspberry fluff" I chose iced with oat milk. It was light, refreshing, and had just the right touch of sweetness without being overwhelming. While it wasn't my personal top pick, I still enjoyed it and could tell it was crafted with balance in mind. I'd definitely come back to try more of their drinks--there are so many tempting flavors, and this place feels like the type where you'll eventually find "your" go-to order.

Single-person / gender neutral restroom. Can't beat all that! Vibes are home-y, service is kind, and the seasonal decor adds a lovely touch of fun and warmth - especially if you go around Halloween (even the bathroom is decked out!).
