I contacted Miranda about a gift certificate for my Mom. I live out of state and didn't know if…read moregift certificates were available or not (YES - Gift certificates ARE available!). Miranda responded immediately and made the process SOOO easy. I could not have asked for more! Miranda sent me a link to pay online and is mailing the certificate to me, or offered to mail it directly to my Mom, or said she could pick up in person. So many options - Miranda clearly is 100% customer-focused. I wish every business was this friendly, professional, efficient, and easy to deal with. Wouldn't the world be a better place if that were true? I am so thrilled and can't wait to give this to my Mom. She will be tickled pink. Truly the perfect gift.

I ordered a small iced matcha latte with almond milk, sugar free, and light on the matcha. It was…read moreperfectly balanced and refreshing. I also had a small hot Pumpkin Miel with oat milk that was cozy, smooth, and full of flavor. Both drinks were a great size and tasted wonderful. I really like that they seem open to custom orders, and you might even be able to create something off menu with the syrups displayed near the register. There is also a small table with straws and other extras, including boba straws. The pastry selection is impressive, and I even saw a chocolate vegan pastry. The shop has a calm and inviting atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating. This town is known as the pumpkin capital of the world, so of course I had to try a pumpkin latte. It did not disappoint.

It was my first time there and everyone else who came in must've known what they were doing. The barista was quite possibly the friendliest person I've ever met.

The pumpkin croissant was strange but my girlfriend wanted to try it. Cool place to sit and enjoy a coffee and pastry.

The place had such a great vibe--everyone seemed to be enjoying their coffee and fresh salads, and it just felt like a really warm, welcoming space.

We order chocolate cake with Bavarian cream(same as we always get). The cake itself tasted horrible. Unfortunately it was hardly eaten at her party and guests complained. I thought it tasted play doughy(salty). I tried another piece the next day, trying the filling, icing, fondant, and cake separately, it was definitely the cake that tasted off. My husband messaged them and complained, they blamed it on the Bavarian cream(it was not the cream, this tasted fine), and offered a 20% off discount of our next order. We paid $60 for this cake. It would have been nice to receive part of our money back, especially considering no one wanted to eat it. It was a waste of $60.

She does cakes for ALL occasions. The cake looked beautiful! However, if you're looking for a very extravagant design with fondant and other special designs, then she might not be for you. Personally, the design of the cake was not as important for us as the deliciousness and price!

Literally - a BUNCH of all fabulous (and all are VEGAN!!!) choices. Who knew being vegan could be so YUMMY?!?

Caffeine with a post office vibe…read more Having visited the Eli's in Metamora and Morton, it was a matter of time that I would drop in on the Tremont location. Emily and I dropped in around 10am to a pretty busy cafe. The baristas were super friendly and patient while we placed our orders. I got my usual americano with a monster cookie and Emily got their Campfire Cold Brew and lemon poppyseed jumbo muffin. We looked around for a place to sit and were lucky to get seats next to each other. This place isn't big so a few people can fill it up pretty quick. I think this used to be a post office and it definitely has the vibes of one, if it was. It took a bit longer, about 15 minutes, for our coffees to be ready. We were ready to sit and chill so the wait wasn't too bad but if you were in a rush, might be something to keep in mind. Any who, we had some delicious baked goods to keep us occupied until the drinks came out. I took a few sips of my americano and it unfortunately fell on the lighter side of how they can be made. While it was good, it was a bit light on the bitter that I like. Emily suggested I actually learn the style of americano I like and see if places can make it like that. But, Emily was also not the biggest fan of her drink, either. She wasn't a fan of the syrup they used in it and didn't like the aftertaste of it. We hung out until we were about halfway done with our drinks and long after our baked goods were devoured. I really liked the vibe of the place and got a really cool sticker of the store front but it looks like a stamp! One of the cooler stickers I've gotten out on my adventures. With there being three locations, I will no doubt drop in to another Eli's at some point. When I do, I will have to try out their other coffee offerings and maybe some of their delicious-looking food.
