“Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great food as a meal or charcuterie board“

“My first impressions were this is a very nice environment. Bright, open, airy and organized. I was excited to try the confetti cake bcuz I'd seen it at the Vestavia Hills location, but they were sold out of them. I'm not a regular customer so I wasn't sure if this cake was their first roll-out of large, shareable desserts. Anyway the cake was presented to me before it was boxed up and I was satisfied with its appearance. I finally tried some later on at home and was surprised that it tasted like a fine dusting of cornstarch was present on it. I mean, that's the first thing that came to mind. The cake had a large crumb like a box cake would. Overall, I was somewhat disappointed but I chalked it up to it being cold, as they keep certain desserts refrigerated. The baker did tell me the cake was brushed with condensed milk, which isn't a bad thing. It adds another layer of flavor and moisture. Well, at this point, I put the cake in the cabinet overnight. The next day, it tasted way better! I gave half of it away, and finished my piece. I can't wait until the strawberry shortcake rotates back around.“

“We come here all the time and the ice cream is FANTASTIC but every single employee here appears to hate their lives.. tonight there were 2 girls working and they were very unfriendly. No greetings, didn’t speak to us.
The employees here always kill the experience :/“

“Please, please please be patient with these people working here. They are working so hard and are probably being overworked and understaffed. Crumble is super popular right now and I will tell you what the addition of this Dubai chocolate brownie. I am a lifetime customer. It literally tastes exactly like a Dubai chocolate bar. And most other locations really Don’t give a lot of filling, which is the part that I like the post in this location did everything perfectly and the customer service was phenomenal. We are lucky to have a crumble out here in Trussville thanks to you guys and the amazing team that works here!“

“An Absolutely Amazingly, Freshly prepared, Gelato or Sorbet Popsicle, on a Stick.....dipped in chocolate and toppings for a unique experience....You MUST try the multitude of FRESH flavors...Enjoy!“

“We walked up right at closing time and we were reading the menu and hours on the door. The owner opened the door and offered to serve us, 5 of us. The churros were amazing and the service was exceptional. I’m only in Birmingham every few weeks- but will be stopping by each time for a treat! Thank you going out of your way to let us try your amazing churros!“

“I stopped by Hello Bakery and was blown away by their delicious croissants—but what really stood out was the owner's kindness! I bought four pastries, and to my surprise, they gifted me a free almond croissant! 😍

Croissant Quality:
The croissants here are perfectly flaky, buttery, and freshly baked. The plain croissant had a crisp exterior with soft, airy layers inside, while the almond croissant (my free treat!) was rich, slightly sweet, and packed with crunchy almond goodness. Absolutely delicious!

Customer Service:
The owner was warm and welcoming, and the free croissant was such a lovely gesture. It’s rare to find a bakery that cares so much about making customers happy!

Final Thoughts:
If you want top-tier croissants and a bakery that goes above and beyond, Hello Bakery is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back—maybe they’ll surprise me again! 😉 Highly recommend! 🥐💛“

“Omg! A PINK COOKIE STORE ! 🥺🥺💗💗
These cookies were delicious !
We ordered three total : the monster mash , breast cancer awareness and triple chocolate. All three were delicious but the monster mash was by far my favorite.“

“So I haven’t had the ice cream yet but my first time in there and everyone was so sweet and helpful! We ended up leaving with the most delicious cookies and will be back for ice cream! It is very important to me to go into a place where people are nice and kind!“

“Really good. I got the cold brew and the cookies and cream. My first time getting anything from them and it was delicious. The lady serving there was sweet. They do have some dairy free options. Next time I want to try their watermelon flavor.“

“Friendly staff. Clean area. Couldn't stop eating it getting to my destination. Fries are well seasoned and have crunch. Seasoned shrimp takes me back to Nawlins!!! Great food, only thing i would add is bigger hushpuppies and make your own tarter sauce with your skills for seasoning! Awesome!“

“Great food and a great atmosphere along with speedy service-what more does anyone need??“

“Atmosphere was good, service was quick. Decent burger but nothing extraordinary.“

“Great yogurts and great flavors“

“Decided to take a last minute trip to Birmingham this weekend and wanted to try this place. Can’t recommend them enough! The customer service was phenomenal and automatically makes you want to go back. And to top it off, the cookies were so fresh and warm. Absolutely a place I will be visiting. Your day time employees deserve a raise! 😜“
