The girl helping us was so sweet, she helped pick out the cake and was so kind to help me with disposable utensils and cake knife. I was floored with the level of service.

We asked her what her favorites were, and she suggested the peach flatbread, and a jalapeño margarita. At first, I didn't think the peach flatbread would be a hit, but it was down flat the best flatbread I've ever had. And the jalapeño margarita was one of the best my partner had had as well. Her attention to our stay was perfect. I highly recommend this cool little spot, which was a perfect blend of chic and laid-back.

Wow! Val's rivals Columbus's Dan the Baker and is absolutely worth the morning weekend drive to…read moreDayton to get your very own! We took a quick trip from columbus to Dayton and were instantly impressed. This is definitely a cafe that loves its city and features many locally made wares. We got the garlic cream cheese danish, the Kellie pie danish, the orange monkey bread, and the buttered croissant. My only problem was that the croissant was covered in a brushing of sugar syrup and it would have been nice for it to just be a butter croissant. It was still delicious and perfectly fine just wish it would have been named more appropriately:) Staff are efficient but kind as there is always a line out the door. We were lucky to still grab some seats inside on a hot day; however, there is well shaded seating outside as well. 4 pastries are a lot for 2 people so we could not try any more. We can't wait to go back!!!!

Stopped in mid morning since I was in the area and had heard lots of raves about Val's. Well, let…read moreme say that many of their selections look like works of art. There is a large indoor seating area. There is some street parking. If I had been parked better I would've lingered. Instead I chose 4 items to take away in a box. I enjoyed everything. They have some really interesting pastries and also the more typical ones. It's on the high $ side. In my opinion it's a treat, a special event kind of place. This is not a get a dozen for the kids ball game kind of spot. Again, just my opinion. I hope to return when I can sit and linger.

I had a photo for inspo and it came out exactly like the picture! Customer service was excellent, it was pleasant communication through emailing and when I went to pick up my cake the girl that was at the store was friendly and professional. The shop is so adorable when you walk in, clean and inviting! I had my daughters with me so of course we had to get an extra treat to snack on. I requested a German chocolate cake and it was very delicious! The cake was not too dry, the perfect texture. Thank you AmyCakes for making my birthday extra special and fancy!

I only got the chance to eat a few of the goodies I had but what I did eat was pretty good . I received some sort of apple danish which was so soft and pretty good . Then there was this pastry called Kougin Amann, which kinda reminded me of baklava without the peanuts and the glaze. But it was soo good it was in the size of a Muffin. They gave us two. There were also other parties in there that I didn't get a chance to even get too but there was a cinnamon roll and some pastry with strawberries and crème in the middle. 10/10 will definitely have to come back and get some more pastries and goodies

Service was friendly and prompt…read more They've been in business for a few years, so I was surprised when they handed me a paper cup with hot water and a tea bag. After I chose a seat, they brought out my breakfast croissant on a paper plate. I wish the cheese was melted, but the sandwich was really good. The croissant was impressive-it tasted like I was back in Paris. It just felt like I was in my hotel lobby having breakfast with all the paper products. I opted for an assortment of to go pastries to try--almond croissant, lemon blueberry scone, and coffee cake. They were all pretty delicious, except the scone. The coffee cake was the best. I will be back!

There was a decent variety, which I hope will only increase as they get more business. I did recommend they add the bun names and ingredients on their labels and/or tags so that if you are giving to someone they know what's inside and because according to what I gathered, they're made with simple ingredients worth touting about: flour, eggs, butter, milk, sugar, no artificial colors (from what I discerned). They also offer boba and espresso drinks. I can't speak to the boba yet, although we are looking forward to trying it. If you aren't familiar with Asian pastries, know they're less sweet and that's what to love about them!

It is very aesthetically pleasing, with friendly service. There are a number of different buns, both sweet and savory, to serve yourself and there are some delicious looking cakes behind the counter. Beverage menu looked appealing and I look forward to trying a drink on my next visit. Would recommend to give this place a try whether you already love Asian baked goods or are looking for something different to get into your sweets rotation!

They do take orders for the next day and will hold the items for you to get there. She was very welcoming and eager to engage customers. Everything is baked fresh every day. There were still some amazing looking pastries left, and she explained the ingredients and taste profiles. I got a Cherry Pie Cup ($3) which was so delicious and flaky, like a deconstructed cherry turnover topped with a mascarpone and cream cheese blend. So fresh and good with that wonderful homemade taste. Now I am sorry I didn't get two! You have to go up several steps to enter so it does not appear that the disabled can get inside this old building. The vibe I received from the owner tells me that they would not hesitate to come out to you if needed. Open Wednesday through Saturday. Get here early!

I haven't had a chance to try any other serving they offer but the cake is top notch. The ambiance in the building is clean and fresh and smells divine. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a sweet treat for a special occasion (birthday, graduation, holiday, divorce, etc) or just because you've got a sweet tooth. Service of course is quick and speedy and they work with you to find the perfect match to your needs.

Milton's Donuts (Carlisle, OH)…read more I am not a big breakfast or donut person, but I found myself craving donuts early in the morning and thought I would give Milton's a try! I'll start with the good. The cream horns, are to die for! It's like biting into a cloud. It just flakes off into your mouth so perfectly, that you question if you even actually took a bite. The apple fritter. The perfect little crunch on the outside, and delicious apple and cinnamon on the inside. Their yeast donuts are huge! You can tell by the photos the clear size difference between the yeast and the cake. The cake donuts were also delicious! The fried sour cream donut was amazing! The not so good. Their glaze is a little heavy for my liking. I can't do the super sweet stuff, and this is a bit much for me. But that is completely personal preference. The fruity pebbles donut was a bit out of my wheelhouse, but I wanted to try it. Not good. The fruity pebbles are soggy, and somehow completely lost their taste. The glazed croissant was a bit of a letdown. It's one menu item that people rave about, and I thought it was just okay. Again, strictly personal preference. The really not so good. I like my cookies crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside. But these cookies are hardly baked at all. I'm not a fan. I also ordered one each of M&Ms, Reese's, triple chocolate and oatmeal raisin. I requested a refund if any of these weren't available, (DoorDash order). Instead, they gave me two Reese's, and something that looks like a blueberry white chocolate chip. One of my donuts was completely smashed. I ordered a glazed twist, and was given an original glazed ring. I requested on DoorDash for them to contact me if anything was unavailable. Of course, they did not. Finally, I was charged additional $5.25 extra for the $18.50 dozen. I contacted the restaurant directly, and the woman who answered the phone explained to me that it was because I chose three specialty donuts, and I could only get two. I advised her that that's not what the menu says, and I read the menu directly to her. She then said that she just checked the menu herself, and I was wrong. So she puts me on hold and I hear her in the background talking to someone else. When she comes back to the phone, she then tells me that it's because I got filled donuts and they are also considered specialty donuts. That is not what the menu says at all. Neither the DoorDash menu, nor their website menu. I suggested that they look into that if they can, and she got snappy with me and said she would let her manager know. She told me that they were unable to adjust the price, and, of course, DoorDash wouldn't fix it either. My overall issue with this experience, is the poor customer service. Not calling me with changes to my order as I requested, and arguing with me over what the menu says, and then changing the story when they realized that I was right. I'm not writing this place off by any means, but I definitely won't be spending 40 bucks there again!
