It's nice to have a great bakery relatively close.

One of the many gems of Badin, the Badin Coffee is the place you want to know their hours (which…read morechange by the season) and visit often. When you walk in, you are immediately dazzled with all of the trinkets and supplements available for purchase, and lulled by the smell of coffee. The interior seating is tables and chairs that can be configured from groups of 1 to 10, or more. There's multiple display cases full of home baked goods, homemade pimento cheese, and other items. Their beverage options are wide enough for anyone to find something to drink. We are fast fans of their cold brew coffee. It is by far the smoothest cold brew I have ever consumed. Their food options slightly vary week to week, but most are in heavy rotation and you will soon know why - the quality is unmatched. Our most recent venture brought to our table a bear claw and a chocolate croissant. To say I was pleased is the understatement of the year. I was overjoyed with the amount of chocolate in the croissant. The bear claw has a tasty almond filling, and the glazed slivered almonds on top give a nice contrast of texture. You can't go wrong with anything inside the coffee shop, as it is much more than just coffee that is sold within. If you're in Badin during their business hours, it would be your loss if you don't pop in.

This lovely coffee house is easy to park at with delicious treats and what also looks like a lot of very healthy alternative food options for snacks and healthy drinks. My husband got a flat white from a beautiful copper coffee machine and I got an iced coffee. They were both excellent drinks. We sat outside under their covered patio that had some circular fans that kept us cool before we headed out. It was super convenient that they also sell lake hats and supplies so I grabbed a hat to keep the sun off my head and it was very useful!

Their classic clown cookies are a must, super nostalgic and just as good as you remember. And the cutie puppy cake? Absolutely adorable and tasted just as good as it looked. You can tell they really take pride in what they make. On top of all that, their prices are really reasonable, especially for the quality you get. It's one of those places you keep going back to because everything is consistently good. It truly feels like an Albemarle classic spot that everyone should try at least once.

The Peanut Butter balls are delicious. The Crème Horns are delicious as well but filled with buttercream which was too sweet for my liking. A lot of bakeries use buttercream and I wish they didn't. The pastry itself was crispy, light and fluffy and topped with powdered sugar. They have a lot of choices of lovely decorated sweets, cookies, pies, candies and cakes. I was greeted by a young lady who was eager to check me out and move on with her day. The interior was as expected. Locally owned and operated. I can't wait to go back and sample more. Their carrot cake looked delicious.

I had already chosen my "carved turkey Reuben sandwich", yum, when I first went at around 12:30-the line was out the door, so went to my appointment, hoping I could get back by the 230 close time. Returned at about 215 yay, and happily walked right up to the counter to order my lunch, when I was told they were out of carved turkey (the way the server explained it sounded like an ingredient in the Reuben was out, not the actual turkey. I asked if the "simple turkey sandwich" had carved turkey, and I was told no, it was deli meat-deli meat is so processed and unhealthy. I was super disappointed. So I opted for a Smashburger after asking how they liked it and she said it was "delicious". Well, it's not a Smashburger. It's a double burger on a nothing special bun. I was going to take the bun off and eat it with a knife and fork, and I was looking for those yummy crispy edges on a authentic Smashburger. They didn't exist. This was a double cheeseburger with very thick patties. I think they were grass fed so kudos to them for that,, but it was incredibly dry sadly, and when I saw that the bun had been toasted with butter, I put it back on and had a couple more bites, but was super disappointed-and trust me nobody loves a great cheeseburger more than I but now I love smash burgers as well!. I also ordered the Orzo cucumber and feta salad (as well as the french fries) on the side and while it was OK, it was nothing special. French fries were just meh. After all the stellar reviews I had I was very surprised that they would make a double cheeseburger and call it a Smash-burger-I wish these restaurants would stop doing that, it's misleading, other restaurants do this too. And for the money I spent, I should've just gone to Shake shack! I DO think it's worth a second chance, and I will say everybody there was very kind on the Service level and it's an adorable, really beautiful spot and vibe ! I strolled around and looked at the merchandise afterwards. So hopefully I'll be back but just super disappointed I didn't have a nice meal and left hungry.

(4.5 stars) The new…read moreGreensboro outpost of a Ramseur bakery, Rocca's boasts an impressive selection of Italian and French pastries, friendly staff, and prices that aren't as high as you would expect. I stopped by after they had been open for about two weeks and was impressed by the sheer number of offerings: breads, cookies, cupcakes, pastries, cheesecakes, quiches, coffee, tea, and more. The employee on duty was patient and helpfully explained a few baked goods I hadn't encountered before (Kouign-amann will have to happen during a future visit). I ultimately settled on a peanut butter-banana coffee cake and a chocolate croissant. The croissant was buttery but dense rather than light and flaky. That density extended to the coffee cake as well, where it was more welcome. The peanut butter-banana combo made for a winning pair, and the topping was tasty as well. Given the pricing, service, availability (open every day except Sunday), and more, Rocca's is a must for anyone in Greensboro with a sweet tooth.

Great little bakery tucked way back off Battleground -- near Wal-Mart (at the bend of an L-shaped…read morestrip center). It is clean, bright and features a fragrant array of fresh pastries -- including fruit tarts, buttery croissants and small quiche (cheese and spinach, two different kinds of sausage, etc.). Fresh bread is baked only two days a week, so give them a call to confirm. The gentleman who waited on me proved knowledgeable and skilled, as well as helpful and kind. In addition to tarts, croissants and quiche, I added bread to the purchase. However, it happened to be a day they were not baking; so, instead, I was offered one from the freezer. I was given tips on how to defrost, freshen and warm the frozen loaf. It turned out to be delicious. Such a great stop!
