    Nintendo Switch cake!
    Kelli W.

    For my son's 10th birthday I wanted to get him a really special cake. I inquired to many bakeries and decided on The Hive because they were close and they sent me pictures of what the cake could look like. Very professional. I went in and paid my deposit and the cake made to look like a Nintendo Switch was ready on party day! The cake looked so good! His friends loved the cake and so did he. My son like plain flavors so the cake was vanilla with chocolate buttercream.he loved it! It tasted very good. So good that my husband requested a cake and cupcakes for his birthday the following week! He is also a plain flavor guy so got the same vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream.the cupcakes were amazing! So moist and flavorful. The cake however was a little dry. I was shocked because my son's cake was so good. That's the reason for the 4 stars. Had his cake been as great as my son's, it would have been 5 stars all the way. They are a great bakery and il going today to snag some Valentine's Day cupcakes for the family!

    As we entered, we were greeted with a smile and straight ahead was their case filled with delights. We chose four cupcakes. I got the lovely pink strawberry one. It was better than I imagined. Real strawberries and not strawberry flavoring. I am not a frosting person, but this frosting was like a fresh strawberry milkshake which melted in my mouth. I can't wait to try the other flavors we got. They have a cake baking event this week which I can't attend, but I signed up for their emails so I can take advantage of future opportunities.

    Beautiful cake done for my Daughters bridal shower. Being a big Harry Potter fan, Melissa and the Hive were spot on. Not only was it awesome, it was the most moist and delicious cake ever. I live in New Jersey and have no problem going on a road trip for goodies. Thank you again Melissa. Your definitely in a league of your own!!!

    We ordered the banana pecan caramel cake and it was delicious. The frosting was some of the best I've had. Light and not too sweet. Everyone at the party raved about the cake as well. Would definitely order again from here.

    what it was originally going to look like

    I used to love this place! until this time; we ordered my daughter a plain plink cake w gold drip (a pic from their book) first, they couldn't do any metallics so she said to do a white drip. we paid $65 for the cake(wasn't an issue just wanted her to get what she wanted). she picked up the cake &there were confetti sprinkles all over it.we wanted something elegant &plain. she picked up the cake just before they closed for several days so we couldn't do anything about it at that point. that's what we were getting. I thought well at least it'll taste awesome, but several people complained about it. I always rolls everyone about this place & to go there bc they were so good. I am just SO disappointed!

    Wedding cake

    We went with The Hive Cake Studio for our wedding cake this September. Melissa was so easy to work with and very responsive when I had questions. We had a little bit of a bigger cake topper, so she adjusted the tier size and it was perfect! The cake was exactly what we wanted and it was delicious! Highly recommend!

    My daughter ordered a very expensive smash cake. I could of made it myself, and I'm not a experienced cake decorator. Very unimpressed.

I must have called 25 bakeries from Youngstown to Cleveland and surrounding areas, and NO ONE makes them OR would make them. I left a voicemail for Moniques and she returned my call and from start to end has been the most personable and professional and pleasurable experience I have had with any company in at least the last 10 years if not longer!!! Monique and her husband both were so accommodating from start to finish & these pineapple squares are nothing short of AMAZZZZING! Beautifully prepared and simply scrumptious! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company for SO many reasons. The best experience I have had in forever! You cannot go wrong. I am a customer for life!!! Thank you Monique. You are the BEST!!!

    Blue Rooster Bakehouse - Oberlin, Ohio Driving through…read moreOberlin, I was looking for a good cup of coffee and decided to stop in at Blue Rooster Bakehouse. The menu is written on a chalkboard, and there's a display case showing off all their fresh pastries and treats. I was hoping for something savory, and the barista mentioned the only option was a cheese croissant. It wasn't shaped like a traditional croissant, but the dough was flaky and buttery, filled with jalapeño and cream cheese, and finished with a sprinkle of salt on top -- surprisingly delicious. I ordered a Doppio, which I later learned is a double shot of espresso. It was strong, smooth, and paired perfectly with my pastry. I also picked up a slice of gluten-free banana bread for my husband. They had about four gluten-free/vegan options available, and everything looked freshly baked. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the space itself was cozy, seating around 15 people. However, accessibility could be an issue -- the narrow layout and tight walkway would make it difficult for anyone using a wheelchair to navigate. My total came to around $12, which felt reasonable for a specialty coffee and baked goods treat. Overall, it's a charming little spot with quality coffee and friendly service -- a place I'd return to when I'm in the area and want to splurge a little.

    Wow. The difficulty…read morein a place like this lies in the narrowing down and decision making on what to get. If I could, I would have gotten one of everything. We finally settled on oatmeal cookie (man it's so good), fig/goat cheese/pear pastry, berry pastry, americano, and a chai latte with oat milk. We had a blast eating outdoors at the picnic bench, nice breeze even on an August morning! If we're ever in town again, this will be our Go To spot for sure.

    Visiting my family for the holidays we were doing some shopping around this area. They had always…read morewanted to try this place, so we stopped in for some takeout. The place had a rather strange smell, almost musty like a basement. It didn't instill great confidence in me for my upcoming food experience. I ordered a pulled pork burrito with the habanero and honey BBQ sauces on the side. The burrito came out and it was actually quite delicious. Beans, onions and peppers, and perfectly cooked pork stuffed the inside. The sauces were okay. The honey was way too sweet for me and the habanero had barely a hint of spice to it. The sauce were also very thick, not my style BBQ sauce. My mom got a pulled pork kids sandwich with fries. The fries were "eh". But again the pork was really good. The kids version of the sandwich was HUGE. I would go back here for the meat for sure, but probably not the sauce.

    I walked into Pappy Bob's and was greeted by the heavy smell of wood smoke, a smell you don't often…read moreget it Cleveland-are "BBQ" joints, and it was a welcome surprise. This joint, although a bit of a drive from Cleveland-proper, has some of the best BBQ in the Cleveland area. It was a welcome surprise. My first sample was a pulled pork sandwich, which was on special for a great price. It was a very good sized portion and it came with fries. I had it with their spicy sauce. The pork was delicious. Unfortunately it came with the sauce on it, covering up a bit of the taste of the meat. I was able snatch a few pieces out from between the bun that weren't sauced was happy to taste that good flavor. If I ordered the sandwich again I would ask for the sauce on the side, and probably wouldn't go for the spicy. I also tried the ribs. I ordered the with the sauce on the side and was greeted with an EXCELLENT smell and full smoke flavor. The ribs meat under the smoke skin was that heavily smoked pink. They were excellent and something worth returning for, for sure. I'm glad I ordered them un-sauced with it on the side so I was able to get some of that smokey meat flavor that they have. The sides I had were their Cajun fries and Mac and Cheese. The Cajun fries were excellent, and rival those at Five Guys. In my opinion they were somehow better. The Mac was top notch as well. Not everything was perfect. My ribs were a bit over-done. Don't get me wrong, I know a good heavily smoked rib is going to be chewy and that's what I like, but I had a few portions that were charcoaled. It's okay though because I got that flavor that I look for in good BBQ and know it was a small mistake, not the norm. My other issue was the sauce. It wasn't as good as the meats were. Going back I'd make sure to have everything with sauce on the side. Somehow the sauces really didn't complement the excellent smokey flavors in the meats. I tried the regular, honey, and spicy and all 3 were off. I would ask for my ribs to be hit with a sprinkling of dry-rub before being served to me next time just to get more of that already built in flavor and might skip the sauce. I'll be going back for sure. This experience might have been 3.5 stars for me but I can tell this is a 4 star joint. I saw they have smoked wings on their menu, so those will be next on my menu. I hope this place only gets more popular, because they deserve it.
