The Gingerbread House

Sat out side. Servers were very attentive

Food was good but hostess was a little abrasive and kitchen refused to make a grilled cheese for a 2 year old during dinner. Not the place to eat if you have a small/picky child. Seating is also not big party friendly, inside space is very cramped.

Really nice farmhouse bistro atmosphere. Boutique upstairs you can purchase some stuff. Really wonderful outdoor dining area. Awesome bakery and dessert area.

Small, very cute. Desserts were looking delicious!

Yesterday I purchased a bag of mini decorated cookies, $27. The spring themed decorations are very cute and neatly done. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT: there is no flavor at all in these frosted cookies. NO extract flavor, NADA, ZERO., NOTHING!! An expensive rip off. LESSON LEARNED.

My favorite breakfast and lunch bistro. Pastries are as delicious as they look. Soups homemade. Don't let the cars parked on the street dissuade you from entering. There's a lot on dining space.

I ordered a cappuccino and a cheese burger. Everything was sooo good! I also grabbed some dessert to go 😋 😉

We initially found this place for our wedding cake back in 2023. We were struggling to find precisely what we were looking for. Peanut butter and jelly with a woodsy whimsical design. It sounds simple but we really did struggle with finding someone who could make it is an option. They were polite and professional in helping us to figure out how to build it so that it was perfect. (Which by the way, it absolutely was). I really wish this was an option on their menu outside of special ordering. We have since come back and we never leave without ordering more than one thing to enjoy at home because we can't get enough. They take a lot of care in their desserts. (We haven't had a chance to enjoy their lunches/sandwiches) But if you're looking for a treat, we highly recommend them. The atmosphere is so cute, warm and inviting. There is some outside seating if I remember correctly. We have seen them pretty busy and it can get a bit tight inside. So if you come across this, just have to be patient and offer space for those to walk through but other than that, it's worth the visit.

I've been here many times and 70% of the time I go there they are cold and unfriendly. Today I wanted a coffee and piece of bakery to go. Went to the counter, a person came up to the cash register(literally 2 feet from me behind the counter) I waited about 15 -20 sec for her to say something. Finally I said, "I'd like to get a coffee and a piece of bakery. She looked right at me, no smile and said, "I'll let you know when I'm ready." So she had time to say that but not time to say, "I'll be with you in just a minute. I responded with a sarcastic "OK?!" She then said, "I'm also the barista and I'm doing multiple things." I bit my tongue because I didn't trust her doing something to my coffee....I'm serious. Next time I will get the manager(even if it's her) and they will get a short lessen in customer service. I cant be the only one so please share if you have experienced this at this place. My son went there the day before because his mother in law was visiting from Chicago which is why I thought about going today and he also said the service was unfriendly although not as cold as what I experienced.

My husband and I love it here. All the bakery is to die for; cookies, crullers, lemon bars. The steak tenderloin sandwich, while has gotten pretty pricey ($28), is still our favorite item on the menu. Tried their fish fry for the first time last Friday. Yum! Everything was cooked to perfection. The service here is always exceptional. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. Parking can sometimes be an issue here, especially during their busiest hours. My only gripe would be is that their inside seating on the main level is kind of tight. They could do with one or two less tables. When it is packed in there, it can get very loud, so having conversations is not the easiest. Great local place with a wide selection of drinks and food. Love living and working nearby.

Really great food and awesome people
