    LUNCH!
    Kinnie I.

    Bakeries like this are hard to find these days. So many delicious and beautifully decorated desserts. All made on the premises. I enjoyed a cup of coffee with my spinach mushroom quiche. A opted for a small tart to satisfy my sweet tooth. I'm definitely coming back to purchase a cake or pie for a dinner party in the future. The young women behind the counter was friendly. It's self serve otherwise.

    Walking into this place makes me want to come back and try every single thing in the display cases. We came in before a concert to get a quick treat and were instantly hit with choice paralysis because there are so many incredible options here! Staff was quick, polite, and efficient getting us our slice of strawberry orange cheesecake and raspberry petite fleur to go. Highly recommend this spot.

    Get the breakfast sandwich on a croissant. That is my primary recommendation to you. If you stop there for breakfast as I did on Saturday morning, get the breakfast sandwich on a croissant. If you enjoy croissants, you will enjoy these crispy, flaky, buttery masterpieces of baking goodness. Coffee was great. Been here many times for the actual pastries and baked goods, never disappointed. Staff was great. On the ball and handling a busy morning like pros. Lewiston isn't a big place and there aren't a ton of options for breakfast on a Saturday morning, so it's good to see VBS takes it seriously and strives to be a quality option.

    In order from top left: Peanut Butter, Espresso and Apple Crumb. You can't go wrong!

    Welcoming staff, beautiful, and clean bakery with lovely shaded seating out front! The Peanut Butter pie is only served here and in heaven! And the Strawberry Rhubarb pie is the best I ever had, please don't tell my mom or sister I said that!

    Service was great. Nice space inside with a cool chair outside for pictures. Husband had the spinach & cheese quiche which was very good . Cookies were okay not too sweet. Wish I had tried the mile high pie instead of the cookies. Next time!

    Cookies looked amazing. Extremely happy with the appearance. I'm sure it took a lot of hard work to make them look that good!!!! Thank you for all your hard work

    A cute place to stop for breakfast, lunch or a little treat. I love the patio seating in front. There's also a small parking area in the back if center street is busy.

    I don't come here often because it is out of my way but when I do, it is always a treat! The inside of the shop is super cute and cozy. I've mostly had their cakes and cupcakes and they are sooo delicious! The last time I was here, I ordered a birthday cake for my friend. It was a hefty $65 for a 9 inch cake but when I picked it up and tasted it, I knew it was worth every penny. I ordered a white cake with raspberry jam. The cake was very moist. The cake was also very THICK with three layers. After we cut the cake, the remaining cake did topple over because it was so thick. But honestly, that isn't something to complain about. The employees at the counter are always friendly too. I can't wait to come back to pick up some Valentine treats next month :)

    Although pricey, they have delicious baked goods along with a small menu for breakfast and lunch. Staff is always warm and welcoming.

    I've driven down Center St in the Village of Lewiston a million times, never realized that this speciality, incredible bakery was located in the heart village. This bakery is a one stop delight: cakes, cookies, speciality drinks, coffee, cake pops, macaroons, canonoli, cupcakes, and other delicious desserts. My selections were strawberry cake pop, and lemon mergine pie. Both were worth the money for a treat. The strawberry cake pop was thick, soft, right amount of cake batter and strawberry taste. The lemon mergine texture was well blended with the right amount of lemon zest/ tart ratio. The lemon taste was phenomenal,real, and authentic, not like the grocery stores version. If you find yourself looking for treat, and to support a local bakery with accommodating excellent customer service..give it a try you won't be sorry and quite impressed.

    cake we got

    I custom ordered a birthday cake on the 15th for pickup the 29th I sent over a design for inspiration (attached). The cake i received was not what I expected. It was a completely plain with just writing and letters, all piped on. I totally get things happen, but, when I sent an email I was told the following: "Hi Dan, We are so sorry that you were disappointed in the design of the cake. Unfortunately, are head decorator has been stuck due to the storm. So we were unable to do the fondant buttons which would have cost an additional $20. We will definitely take care of you next time. Again, so sorry for missing the mark on this cake." for $70 I would have expected something that was more visually pleasing, frankly a cake from Tops would have looked better. I have no doubts the cake will taste lovely, but, had I known such little effort would be expended I would not have ordered it custom. If the decorator was out it's entirely understandable but that should have been communicated so I had the option to go a different route. A gentleman next to me picked up a beautiful cake for 45 dollars. It's clear that they did not put any time or effort into this cake. I've frequented the Shoppe (and even ordered a lovely themed cake in the past so I expected something similar, this was nothing like that. The three images are what I got, the nice looking cake is what I sent for inspiration.

    Bittersweet completely ruined a special event--and the owner couldn't care less…read more Let me save you the trouble: do NOT trust this place with anything important. I ordered a cake for a gender reveal two weeks in advance, gave very clear instructions, and yet they managed to mess up almost every part of it. This was my first time ordering from Bittersweet, and it will 100% be my last. If you care about your event even a little, go elsewhere. Strike 1: I was very specific about the pickup time--5 PM sharp. Time matters to me. I planned everything around that. When I arrived, the owner, Pavan, casually says, "Give me 10 minutes," and I end up waiting 17 minutes. No urgency. Just plain disregard. I might as well have been back in India with the way he dismissed punctuality. He gave me $7 off for being late Strike 2: When I placed the order, Pavan took notes and suggested various ideas, including our request for a heart-shaped cake. On the day? He handed me a plain round cake. When I asked why, his excuse was, "I don't have any notes about the shape." So either he lied about taking notes, or he just didn't care to follow them. Either way--unprofessional and careless. Strike 3--the ultimate failure: We had a clear gender reveal plan. We said, blueberry for a boy, strawberry for a girl, with corresponding colors. But when we cut the cake, the inside looked reddish. Everyone cheered thinking it was a girl--only for us to check the report later and find out it was actually a boy. The flavor was blueberry, but it looked red, and the colors were completely off. The moment was ruined. That's not a small mistake--that's a total disaster. I called the owner, and he admitted, "I should have checked before giving it to you." No kidding. But he didn't check because he was already rushing and behind schedule. Bottom line: this place is unreliable, careless, and lacks basic professionalism. If your event matters at all, don't take chances with Bittersweet. They might smile when taking your order, but they clearly don't care about getting it right when it counts.

    We were told the cake is chocolate mouse. The cake was very dry chocolate cake and no mouse at all…read more Very misleading, the staff assured us and we bought it. Needles to say, my daughter was very dissatisfied and for the price of $150 it was not worthy. I would never recommend this place.
