They offer a wide variety of treats, including baked goods, candy, popcorn and ice cream. They have a good selection of coffee and loose leaf tea as well! I really like how big the space is for the cafe, it really feels like a nice gathering place for friends and community.

They also have a variety of fresh baked cookies, a HUGE selection of popcorn flavors as well as a candy wall full of options to get by weight. And something I've never seen anywhere else is a selection of sprinkles by weight. This would be perfect for the occasional home baker who needs just the right color sprinkles for a special occasion. They also have a decent area to sit inside and enjoy your goodies. The store is super cute and watching the kids come in and just take in alllll the options was fun. The staff was polite and helpful but you might have a slight wait if there is a line while they give each customer their full attention to make sure they get just what they want.

A holiday staple Living in the Rockford area…read more My Family has been visiting for as long as I can remember and we always have a good time. We always meet our close friends and their family. A tradition that started with 4 or 5 of us and has grown to 8. We have not actually bought a Tree from there in years (They're Overpriced) but our friends always do, they love the tradition of cutting their own tree, their oldest son has taken on the responsibility, something he is very proud of. There is obviously MUCH MUCH more than just trees though, Our kids love the animals, santa, snacks, and shops. We always bring a few adult beverages to chat around the outdoor firepits, spend quality time together roaming the property, petting the animals, indulging their delicious foods and making new memories. Williams is without a doubt the best option in the Rockford Area and I would highly recommend bringing your family and friends.

Forced family event turns to great experience…read more This place has such a great selection of pre cut or cut your own. Seems like the majority is Frazier but we went pine this year for the first time. Loved the different areas spread all over to cut your own. They even have atvs driving around to take your cut tree to the shake station. If you have little kids there's some fun stuff and they have drinks and food. Happy we ventured here. Worth the 1-1/2 hour drive.

Ok! This is for us. (Who knew?) Dropped in on a Saturday AM. Explained situation. They understood what was up. They would use their nail clippers vs the Dremel I was using at home. Nails trimmed in no time flat. Friendly staff helped get Frank out to the car afterward. (I use a rollator. Frank has zero manners. Huge fall risk.) BUT she also helped get Frank calmed by allowing him to go to the bathroom and then helped get him into the minivan afterward. W h e w . Huge help. Frank is now walking much better. He is more comfortable. Great nail trim job just into itself. While in their shop, they helped make recommendations for grooming tools for his unusual (German Shepherd x Husky mutt) coat. They were able to address both of what had been our two biggest problem areas. I've been coming to Meyer's for years with my two previous Canaan Dogs. Meyer's dealt with their tricky dispositions easily. Meyer's has provided reliably superlative services throughout. The dogs loved it at Meyer's. Glad to see Meyer's remains in Roscoe as ever and still provides the same level of doggie care.

I had high hopes after my first interaction with this company. The receptionist was friendly,…read moreresponsive, and acknowledged that my request was very last-minute. She said she'd check with her manager to see if the order could still be fulfilled. That same evening, the manager confirmed it was doable. He only had one question--was the surface flat enough to set up on? I immediately sent a photo of the site, and he gave the green light. During that call, I offered to make payment right then to lock things in. He told me not to worry about it and said we'd handle the quote and payment the following day. I appreciated the trust and responsiveness, and everything felt like it was on track. The next day, I received the quote. I didn't respond immediately--not out of neglect, but because I was confirming one last technical detail on my end: whether we would need a generator. I called back the following day (less than 24 hours later), ready to book, only to be told the quote had expired and the item was no longer available. At no point was I told the quote was time-sensitive or that the availability could change without warning. I never received a follow-up, a courtesy call, or even an email indicating there was a deadline. Considering I had already expressed clear intent to move forward--and was told not to pay right away--it felt abrupt and confusing to have the rug pulled out from under me. When I called to express my confusion, the manager hung up on me. When I called back, he told me it wasn't his job to follow up with clients. Technically, he's right--it's not required. But from a human and customer service perspective, it felt dismissive and unprofessional, especially after such a positive start. I'm not writing this to bash the company. I'm writing this to help future clients understand the importance of asking key questions early on: How long is my quote valid? Is the item being held, or can it be booked by someone else? What's your policy on last-minute communication? The company may be good at what they do. But in my case, the lack of communication, lack of follow-through, and poor handling of what could've been a simple confirmation left a bad taste. This was a rare opportunity to deliver outstanding customer care--and it was mishandled. That said, after I left my original review, Mike, the manager, personally reached out to me. He took ownership of the missteps on both sides, including my own for not confirming more quickly or asking the right questions. I truly appreciated his honesty and professionalism in that moment. He even re-offered the service--even though by then I had booked with someone else. In hindsight, this was a very last-minute request, and the team did everything they could under the circumstances. There were communication gaps, yes--but Mike made a sincere effort to follow up, make things right, and move forward with integrity. That says a lot about his character and the values of the business. I'm updating my rating to 4 stars--not because everything was perfect, but because I respect that they made the effort to make it right. I want this company to do well, and I believe they will continue to improve if they handle future clients the way Mike handled our follow-up. No bad karma--just growth, and hopefully lessons learned on both sides.

I would not recommend using this business. Here is my experience:…read more The set up staff came and was very friendly. During set up, they realized the inflatable was not fully inflating. After pushing up the top, they got it to resemble a bouncehouse and said they got it working. Ok great! After having my kids jump, we realized that it still was not full and immediately called. They came back quickly and added a second blower. The second blower had to be attached to a separate outlet, which I had to run through my house (not ideal, but ok fine). The second blower hardly worked, however and the delivery/set up team admitted it was faulty and "one of their old ones". The word "shotty" was used. I called Brent who seemed not to believe me. He said it was "fine" and would be safe to bounce on. After feeling completely ripped off, I asked for some sort of remedy - perhaps a swap out... he said he couldn't help. I suggested some sort of discount (I believe we paid close to $500) - not a suggestion he offered. He suggested $100 off, which is still very unfair. I've called, he has not followed up for this reimbursement. Definitely not a customer-first mentality in this small business. Bad business practices, poor products. Attached is a picture of the bouncy house with 2 blowers.

The clerk who took our order was helpful as I was juggling two kids and deciding what to order for the fam. And after we quickly got our food, she came over a couple of times to check on us, helping us get some extra silverware and napkins. The spot was clean, and the noodles were what you'd expect, which means decent portions, tasted pretty good and at a reasonable price. Also love that the kids meals come with smaller size Rice Krispy treats -- my kids' faves. My husband and I were able to eat something that wasn't a burger on our long drive home, and my kids actually ate their meals too. Noodles & Co. is a solid food option.

There is a one star deduction due to the ingredients, not being absolutely the freshest, but I would not put that on the staff fully, and more on the chain.
