Dessert First: Dockside Coffee and Dessert Bar

Wonderful view

Visited with a large family group. It was my 2nd visit but others have been there many times before. I know its a fam fave when we're in the area. Awesome looking desserts; tho I only had an iced drink this time, I did have a taste of what some others ordered and it was just as good as it looked! You can't go wrong ordering from their dessert case, nor any of their coffee/espresso creations. Very popular so parking is usually full and its a little tight; we all still found parking. Even with our large group, most everybody was able to sit, as some enjoyed the beautiful weather on the outside deck at tables with patio umbrellas, and others chose to stay at a table inside the cafe. I think prices were as you could expect to find in a dessert/coffee place, nothing outrageous. Staff was super friendly. We had a great time at Dessert First and look forward to visiting again whenever we're in the area.

Always delightful ice cream and treats. Just below Harris Crab House.

10/10 recommend this place for breakfast! We ordered the sausage egg & cheese / bacon egg & cheese, both came on homemade biscuits and were amazing. We also ordered the apple cinnamon pop tart and Carmel apple strudel to go. Both were phenomenal! The iced coconut latte was the perfect pairing for a summer day.

Lovely spot to stop for a sweet treat!

It's a lovely dessert 🍨 🥧 or breakfast spot.

Waterfront hidden gem. Great place to go with friends but also alone for a coffee break to enjoy fresh air, a beautiful view and great food.

Delicious coffee, beautiful scenic views.

Stopped in to grab a cup of coffee on our way home, and was not disappointed. Fantastic coffee. Had a snicker doodle latte, and it was delicious. The treats looked and smelled fantastic, but didn't get any.

I stumbled across Dessert First last weekend and absolutely loved the vibe, the outdoor seating area so peaceful and the staff are friendly. I went back with my momma and we both enjoyed our treats and coffee

Nice place to stay. The cake has hardly any calories (fun), and the coffee is delicious. Stopped here by chance and found it good.

Nice place with great views. Desserts are first rate but their regular coffee was kind of terrible. With so many wins for this place it’s kind of stupid and disappointing that they missed on such an easy one. I also took away a star for the whole tip thing. You don’t give a tip for counter service! Management needs to pay their employees!
