    Avocado toast
    Rachel C.

    I had a delicious Pitaya bowl and avocado toast. The avocado and tomatoes were fresh and delicious--the toast doesn't look like much but it packs a punch. The fruit bowl was also delicious l. Plenty of seating, fast service, and just a nice surprise in this little strip mall. Oh! And I had a decent latte as well.

    Great Açaí bowls and breakfast sandwiches! We stopped in while traveling and grabbed food to go. The wait was pretty short and food was amazing. An Americana was my coffee choice. Nice warm spot to relax and enjoy breakfast or a brunch. They also have outdoor seating. Try it you'll like it!

    The menu had a lot of interesting options. The person taking my order was very sweet. Food took a very long time. We ordered a plain buttered bagel, a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese, and a plain bagel with cream cheese, tomato, and bacon. All of the bagels were burnt from being over toasted but were still tasty. My iced matcha latte was heaven. This was a cool place that would be great for a date or a relaxing hang out.

    We found ourselves in Kent Island, kind of by chance. We were looking for a restaurant to try and found this adorable cafe. There are plenty of vegetarian options, which is key for us. Two of us got acai bowls and one ordered the avocado swiss veggie wrap. We were all happy with our orders. I think the favorite was the pura vida choco-nut bowl. The cafe itself is very cute. There are various seating options, and I believe I recall outlets, if you need to charge your device. The staff was kind and happy to answer questions.

    Pepper and Onion bowl with bacon.

    We've been here for lunch and breakfast. The service is consistently friendly and welcoming and the food is fresh and delicious. Today I had the Pepper and Onion Bowl with Bacon (egg and potatoes). YUMMY!!

    Nice and small cafe that was excellent for visiting after a day at the beach. The fruit bowl selection was plentiful and everything tasted great. The prices were a bit on the higher side but what isn't now a days? The ice chips in the fruit bowls was also peculiar and showed something was frozen and not all made that day.

    The bagel sandwiches are delicious!!! I can't comment on much more as this is all we've tried so far but we are very impressed. Compared with other bagels on KI, yo Java bowl blows them out of the water. These bagels are hard and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just how bagels should be. Not dry at all. The bagel filling was also really yummy and fresh. You can tell they take pride in making delicious food! Fast service too, we ordered online and picked up within 10-15 min. Looking forward to trying more of their menu!

    The aloha pineapple smoothie was so good. Got it with 5 minutes and did not give me a brain freeze.

    This coffee/dessert shop was a perfect coffee fix when staying at the hotels across the way. It is…read moreright on the water and a great place to just sit and relax. Honestly, I'd go back for ambiance most of all. The coffee is rise up coffee which is an eastern shore staple. I got the Madagascar latte which was a vanilla latte with coconut. I didn't care for the flavor I got, but it was still good coffee. As for the desserts, with the name desserts first I was expecting a lot. The desserts did not blow me away. I tried the peach bread pudding and I was hard pressed to find the peach even though I saw chunks of peach. The cinnamon bun also was weirdly fluff. The best dessert was actually the dirt cup! I got it for my kids and just stole a bite and it was really delicious! The biggest drawback for me was that I went for breakfast and there was very slim breakfast options. The warm food was like at Starbucks with just a microwave to heat up maybe 3 egg dishes that were tiny. Even though it is a dessert place, I would think there are plenty of breakfast pastries they could have served, but didn't. It was mostly just muffin options and 3 hot egg dishes.

    If you're ever crossing the Bay Bridge or spending a day on Kent Narrows, do yourself a favor and…read morestop here. Dessert First is exactly what the name promises -- a cozy, waterfront spot that makes you feel like skipping lunch or dinner. The desserts? Absolutely top-tier. The coffee is from Rise Up Coffee Roasters, and you can really taste the difference.Prices are fair for the quality, and the atmosphere makes it worth every penny.
