“I’ve only experienced Last Call Bakery through June Coffee next door, but every time we do—it’s a win. They always have updated, seasonal pastries that are so good. My whole family still talks about them from all the way in Mississippi. Definitely worth a stop. You won’t regret it.“

“Came in from out of town and this was such a sweet little shop to visit. We got the snickerdoodle, carrot, red velvet and strawberries and cream bundtlette! SO GOOD!“

“DAUGHTERS BAKING IS THE PLACE TO HAVE THE MOST DELICIOUS and BEAUTIFUL WEDDING CAKE!!! Not since my sweet momma made my 4 tier Italian Cream wedding cake homemade, have I ever witnessed an entire wedding cake devoured and so loved… until DAUGHTERS BAKING!!! My daughter chose the STRAWBERRY CHAMPAGNE cake for her wedding cake and my son in law chose the fabulous variety tray of 75 miniature cakes and the entire cakes were devoured by the crowd with RAVE REVIEWS!!! My daughter’s wedding cake was not only beautiful, but truly, her wedding cake was beyond DELICIOUS!!! Thank You, Daughter’s Bakery… we’ll be back as my son is getting married in 4 months!!! Sincerely, Elisa C.“

“A sweet friend dropped off a box of the most delicious, incredible, scrumptious pastries that I have ever eaten!!!!!!
My son was visiting and the two of us said that we hadn’t ever tasted anything like these homemade bakery goods.
I had considered hiding some of them away so that he wouldn’t eat them all when I wasn’t looking.
These are the things that dreams are made of!

“The cakes are delicious and great quality!“

“I love going to this Crumbl when we are in the area. It became part of our routine during the time my son was going through treatment for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at Children’s. We have continued the trips to get Crumbl cookies, cakes and pies when we are in town for checkups. This store is always clean, friendly, and the treats are top notch!! We are always super satisfied with what we get from here!“

“Bought an assortment of cupcakes for the office. Everyone loved them! Will be back!“

“Great variety and fresh donuts!🍩“

“We have been hooked on this place. The BEST cupcakes and cinnamon rolls. Always busy but line moves so fast! Our favorite bakery by far! ❤️“

“I visited this location with my daughter on Friday! My experience was phenomenal. Anna was so sweet and helpful! I had questions about a particular cookie. She made sure to inquire about the cookie and let me know when it would be in the store! A nice man even came from the back to let me know about the cookie! I absolutely love Cookie Fix, and this is my go-to location!“

“I love the red velvet baby bites! I drove an hour just to get them!“

“Hello, I would like to let everyone know how amazing Bus's Best Cookies custom service is and Mr Jeffery McClure went way above all expectations. My Wife and I were on a road trip and we stopped at "The Texan" gas station in Schulenburg Texas and I purchased their Lemon Cream cookies. I looked through their selection and chose them because they are cholesterol free and zero trans fat. We got back to our truck and I had a couple of them; really great flavor! I was super impressed with them. I got to the third one and it had no cream followed by the next 4. The left side of the package only had one with the lemon cream. Disappointing because they are so good. Even without the cream, the plain cookie was still very tasty. I sent Bud's Best Cookies an email with the intent of just letting them know about the situation. I wasn't asking for anything. Mr McClure replied the next day and offered to send replacement cookies. He not only sent the lemon cream cookies, but to our surprise, he sent a very nice variety of other products for us to enjoy. This company has earned a new customer and we will be be recommending them to family and friends. They are amazing cookies and their customer service is beyond excellent!“

“I was running late, and called in an order. The doughnuts were fresh and rich. My supervisor now says if you’re going to be late we gotta bring doughnuts 😅 glad we live close by. The ladies there are very sweet 🥰but take cash only also a good stop for coffee“

“The prettiest tastiest cake I have ever had. Its was freshly baked and delicious. It was so pretty, I didn’t want to cut it.“

“Such a great place! Got some wonderful snacks and a blueberry muffin that was divine!! very friendly gal helped me out and told me all about the other things that they have in their refrigerators freezers and are able to serve and cater for people! highly reccommend!“

“After my first experience with Cookie Fix, I have to say that I am officially obsessed. I fear I will dream about these cookies. I only had a chocolate chip cookie, and let me tell you I know for a fact that I will be driving the drive to this place the SECOND a craving hits. If I could adopt that cookie, I would. Absolutely give Cookie Fix a try if you catch a vibe for a sweet treat.“

“Hands down delicious!! The Sassy Nana Jar blew my mind! I wish I had bought more! I will find a way to be a repeat customer! It was great meeting you at the market in Amite, LA yesterday! Keep up the great work! ❤️“

“The croissants are wonderful, the Earl Grey tart was to die for, the apricot shortbread were delicious and the macarons were great. I can’t say enough great things about my first visit yesterday. It will not be our last.“

“Celebrated with a group in Chez Lulu. The atmosphere was great and the food quality and assortment was nothing short of amazing! The staff were so friendly and welcoming. My favs were the Greek pizza and chocolate Potacreme.“

“First time travelers to Birmingham, Edgar's is an amazing option for brunch. Apart from a convenient location near a few hotels, they are located throughout the city. Friendly service, great tasting baked goods and respectful prices. Try the chocolate rugelach it's phenomenal.“

“A newly opened shop with an exceptionally friendly owner Gina. She went above and beyond to make sure I had arrest eating experience. And I did. I had a chicken chipotle panini and a peanut butter, banana, and honey shake. Both very much delicious. Thanks Snowies! And good luck!“

“I love this place! However, today, I was slightly disappointed. I drove up from Montgomery, the closest location. It was 3:00, and they were out of cookies and cinnamon rolls. I’m unsure why they didn’t cook more because they had a few hours left to be open, but I was disappointed because we made a special trip just for the cinnamon rolls, and we couldn’t purchase as many as we wanted.“

“Magic Muffins hands down has the best wedding cakes! A coworker told me we should go take a look and we were amazed at how fresh and delicious everything was! Magic Muffins had so many photos to look at and great suggestions, so it was extremely easy to come up with the final concept for our wedding cake and groom’s cake!“

“I just snagged a poundcake at the boat show and GOOD LAWD! She prays over these things or something. So good!“

“Nice bakery with plenty of classic options to choose from. I ordered a custom German Chocolate Cake for the holidays by phone. It was ready on time. The cake was moist and delicious. The only issue was pick up. My little cousin picked it up for me and the clerk behind the counter had a poor attitude for not reason. My cousin was only trying to order a cookie before leaving and paying for the cookie. Rude staff at this location.“

“I am new to the area and saw this place today. They had slices of pound cake and mini pies. They might have had other items too but I only noticed these, they captured my attention right away. I purchased a mini sweet potato pie, key lime, and a pecan. I also purchased a slice of lemon pound cake. My 12 year old announced she didn’t like pound cake or pie… A couple of hours later I tried the sweet potato pie. The 12 year old asked for a taste and begged to have the rest. Tonight we equally ate the lemon pound cake. Both superb. We haven’t tried the other 2 minis yet, but have no doubt they will be equally delicious. This place had the most delicious sweet potato pie and even better than my own (really good) lemon pound cake. Prices are reasonable and they have fantastic employees.“

“Highland Gourmet Scones is my favorite sweet treat in town. The orange cranberry should be illegal it’s so good. The texture of the scones is like nothing else I’ve tasted. It’s like a scone-biscuit-cookie-cake cloud, baked to perfection. Dang, now I want another one.“

“I can’t say enough about the staff at the Hoover Edgar’s! We had a last minute birthday cake mishap and they not only came through, but blew it out of the water. The decorator came out and talked to me and absolutely crushed it. She saved the 6 year old birthday party and was so kind to make it happen in under 4 hours!“

“If you're a fan of oatmeal cookies, or even if you think they're the enemy, DROP EVERYTHING and dash for the oatmeal butterscotch cookies! Seriously, ya’ll, this combo is a game changer. Your taste buds will be throwing a thank-you party for weeks!“

“Whenever I get a high test score, my grandfather drives me out and lets me get a whole basket full of pastries, and it’s never more than $30 for the whole lot. The best part- they aren’t expired. We call it “The Day-Old Bread Store,” but everything is dated at least a month ahead of when you buy it. I highly recommend this as your go-to pantry stuffer store“

“Marta's is an AMAZING bakery mainly because they will work with their customers. Food is subjective, but good service and great people always bring a smile. In this case, in my opinion, the casseroles are wonderful and the crew is even better!“

“Love the bread here! Just revisited after a long absence and I ask myself how could I have forgotten? The sourdough is great and the pastries are fantastic. Cool location, great place to meet for coffee too.“

“Popped in after my haircut across the street at The Homewood Barber and I was NOT disappointed! We placed our order, I got a Chicken & cheese Quesadilla, that was prepared beautifully I might add, and my wife got their Ruben Sandwich, of which was so good, I ate half of her sandwich while she wasn't watching. Met a very nice and extremely knowledgeable employee, Sunny Prasad, and he was a literal "fountain of recommendations. And they were all delicious!

Plenty of parking, plenty of seating, plenty of delicious food! Sunny will impress you! Give their Lattes a try! Order what you normally order at "the BIG Coffee Shop", and see if your impressed with their coffee too!“

“If you're ever in the area and you love bread this is the place to go for Discount and I'm saying steep discounted bread mostly expired almost expired but I throw mine in the freezer pull it out when I need it also has snacks and drinks at great prices“

“I had cookies made for a ceremony for my daughter. Lisa was so easy to work with! Her cookies were exactly what I wanted- so cute and they taste amazing!“

“Great mini pack. I get to try them all“

“The sausage rolls are great! Thank goodness for you guys rescuing them, and making them even better! We recently tried the Nutella ones: so.stinkin.good!! Hope there will be more locations to offer them!!“

“I got a Triple Chocolat Cake for my Son's Birthday with writing on it and boy was it Delicious! Cake was fluffy and icing was on point! Quality definitely there! All I can say is thank you! Money well spent and will be looking forward to spending more! :)“

“A big thanks to Buttercup N Company for the awesome, delectable chocolate chip w/pecan cookies. The recipient was on cloud nine as he enjoyed every morsel!🍪🍪💝“

“Muy buen servicio y muy contenta con el pastel 😊👌“

“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 bought a strawberry cake on short notice for my daughter's graduation from the University of Alabama and every staff member we connected with was pleasant and helpful. They went the extra mile to create just what we had hoped for and it was delicious! Best cake ever.“

“They are so friendly and I love the decor! I love the coffee choices too and the “sweet bread”. lol It’s such a unique atmosphere and I’m so happy to have such a creative Hispanic coffee shop in Birmingham. I hope it’s just the beginning…“

“I just want to shine light on this business you are doing an awesome job. Keep up the good work you are extremely blessed. Excellent service wonderful work respectful reasonable. I’ll give this business 10 stars if I can. May god continue to grant you much success.“
