I waited until I got to my destination to enjoy the delicious Banana Bread Latte. Both team members who served us were helpful and kind. The cupcakes were just as delicious as the drinks. It's not too sweet! We highly recommend! Can I get back here before I head back to the west? :-)

I ordered 2 cupcakes (red velvet and banana pudding) for my daughter and I to share which we really enjoyed. The cake batter could have been a little more moist to me however, I liked the icing. The shop is cute, cozy and quaint. I am so glad I found it and would love to return while in the area.

I couldnot believe my eyes when I saw the owner go to the back and start frosting the cupcake I just ordered and then put on my caramel drizzle how perfect! Of course I would be back to midnight confections. I had no idea how close they were two bars I usually frequent when I'm in federal hill. Now I know and they will definitely be a spot I'll frequent whenever I'm in the area.

My package consisted of a small kale salad, shrimp and grits as the entree and a chocolate cupcake for my dessert. The kale salad was good. It had dried cranberries and sunflower seeds on it and a vinaigrette dressing. When I got home, I warmed up the shrimp and grits, and it was delicious. It had great flavor, both the shrimp and the grits. The chocolate cupcake was very tasty. If I can catch her on too good to go again I will definitely purchase a couple bags. The business is located out of a building called the Baltimore pumphouse. It's not a sitdown restaurant but an online order only food service.

Thank you so much and we will be ordering again soon. I do want to comment on the two- 1 star comments from Jerrishe B & David V. The owner gave me a price within seconds of me filling out the form and showing pictures, so I find this hard to believe you had to wait a week.

I really miss their plantains and collard greens but now they have a lot of tandoori and curries for lunch. It's oddly a very large space and I am honestly not sure how they stay in business so I'm rounding up my review to a four because I want them to succeed. From the outside the entrance is kind of hard to find because it looks like it's one, but it's in fact you have to go up the stairs to get to the main entrance. This is also a full service bottle shop. You can buy desserts to go as well as alcohol. I'm not sure how much inventory they move but the lunch that I got was good. It was a lunch portion so it was under $20 for some naan and a rice with lamb. You could tell they did make it fresh to order which I really appreciated. All in all it's not a bad place for a quick bite. I do really miss their old menu pre-Covid.

We got a chocolate cake with chocolate icing. My only direction was to make it look like a nice birthday cake which they met the directive easily. When we were there for the pickup I did get an order of a spinach mushroom tart. I will say I didn't enjoy this a whole lot because it tasted very salty. I hope it was a one off- I would definitely go back to try some more items from their baked goods.

I am a fan of the bakery items but the BBQ sandwich is hard to keep together since the pattie is made out of quinoa. I would also ask that the bun isn't toasted fully so it's softer. They have items from a brownie to actual cake slices you can get. They have savory bakery items as well. They have drinks and salads they offer as well. I ordered the following; Guava doughnut - 10/10 Brownie with nuts - 5/10 Cinnamon roll - 9/10 BBQ quinoa burger - 6/10 (the pickles were amazing!) The service was very accommodating and they very personable. They have a small area for seating a couple and then two tables out so you can stay if you want! I think the only concern I had was just them being aware of touching their hair or face while by the food area. All in all, it was a great place to stop by for some bakery items.
