“They’re so friendly ❤️ and food is amazing“

“I ordered a cookie bouquet this morning and received outstanding customer service from the Belair location. They were courteous and contacted me in a timely manner following my request for follow-up information. The owner made sure the delivery went out as expected. This was my first experience with this location and it exceeded my expectations, and my friend was extremely pleased with her cookie bouquet. Great experience!“

“I had a wonderful experience with VS Doggy Treats! I reached out through their website and Swati got back to me promptly with it being right after the holidays. She is really nice and was able to have the cake ready for pickup with a 4 day turn around. The cake was affordable along with payment and pickup was being easy too! I ordered their small pumpkin/apple cake with blueberry and yogurt frosting. My pup absolutely loved her cake for her 1st Birthday! My pup and I highly recommend this great family business and we'll be back for more! :)“

“We've purchased various goods from the store twice this fall and everything is delicious. The apple pie is addicting. The apple cider is the best I've ever had. They have an awesome selection of fresh apples. Despite the crowds, the check out line moves quickly and parking is organized.“

“We stopped by for the first time tonight and they were so friendly and kind! We ordered muffins, cupcakes, & Rice Krispies treats and she was so kind to even go search in the back for more chocolate muffins. We didn’t even ask, she just offered on her own to search for more. So kind!! We loved the homemade cards, dog treats, and dog accessories they sold. I love that they support Zekes local coffee too. We will definitely be back to try the cinnamon roll, try the coffee, and get some pup snacks. Thanks :)“

“If you’re looking for different and great cinnamon buns look no further. I love their baby buns as well“

“If you don’t think Ovenbird bakery is the best in Baltimore, see response below: You’re wrong.“

“Strawberry 🍓 Shortcake EVERYTHING IS GIVING ! I'm Persnickety not eating from just anywhere due to cult following. Being a Chef my Palate is EXSTREMELY EXSQITE & DEFINED. Just because it looks good doest mean it's GOOD. This young lady 💯 ment ALL MY EXPECTATIONS & SOME. Last but not least when traveling my Significant other Only Chooses 5star restaurants to TRY & MEET MY EXPECTATIONS. PLEASE LOVE ON YOURSELF YOU WILL ENJOY THE TREATS .🍓🌈🙏🏿💯👌🏿“

“Have really enjoyed the Basic Decorating class. Last class this week with a big final project. Clara is a great teacher. I will definitely be back for more classes“

“Staff is super helpful. Love my German cheesecake“

“So glad I made it in, very delicious llapingachos and maduros. Also tried my first non seafood encebollado and it was pretty good! A mean hot beef soup with yuca on a cold day! Will be back! Hopefully they've got the special soup for Pascua!“

“I ordered 5 dozen custom flavor cupcakes each with Italian meringue and a large tray of chocolate covered strawberries for my small wedding. For the morning of my wedding, I also ordered several quiches and pastries. Other than a small oops with the frosting on the cupcakes (which was resolved immediately), everything prepared for my wedding was absolutely perfect! I’m still receiving compliments from guests on how good the cupcakes were. My husband and I I have been back a few times since our wedding for quiche and a cinnamon sugar brioche doughnut (my weakness!).“

“I was very happy and pleased with my order. The colors were on point for my daughter baby shower June 7th 2025. Everyone was satisfied with the treats. I ordered candy apples from someone and that person couldn’t do the order so I reach out to Ms. Lena she got the job done at the last minute she will help you make the perfect decision. I appreciate Ms. Lena for having patience with me I will be ordering from Ms. Lena again Thank you once again“

“What an amazing job Fenwick bakery did for a recent event I had. I called and asked for King cake for a New Orleans theme and they nailed it. Not only was it delicious but the customer service was outstanding. Thank you Carol for going above and beyond I highly recommend them for any occasion.“

“I was there last Thursday and the manager was seriously so sweet. Went above and beyond in service!! Was so sweet to the baby and the dogs. Sooo kind. Made the experience amazing“

“Nice crew here. Saw me pull in and ran out to check my destination, immediately put me in a door. Pretty tight to maneuver and it will be a blindside 90 to get in the dock. Wasn't busy when I showed up. I can see how it could be a nightmare if it was though. Started loading me within minutes of hitting the dock. I did arrive about 45 minutes early.Assume there is no overnight parking from how small the place is and they also have day cab drivers that work here so they park all their trucks in the lot at night“

“The aroma of freshly baked bread fills the air, inviting you inside. Sweet pastries glisten under the warm light, promising a delightful treat. From traditional conchas to savory cakes , the selection offers something for everyone. Each bite is a testament to the baker's skill and passion. It's a place where you can savor the authentic flavors of Mexican baking.“

“very sweet and accommodating staff. always attentive and you can tell they are working at all times. the only reason why I have it a 4 was because all of their cookies are underbaked. i get it that they don’t choose the flavors but the cookies are never fully cooked. always a weird dough texture in the middle.“

“First time here, while in the area, and I was not disappointed. They have a really nice selection. I couldn’t even wait until I got home—I had the kids grab me this canned whipped dessert, and oh my gosh, it was amazing. Everything else was great too: the cakes, donuts, bread pudding, and more.“

“I can't say enough good things about Sweetly Baked by Cara! The desserts are not only delicious but also beautifully presented. What sets them apart is their exceptional customer service - Cara and her team always go above and beyond to ensure a wonderful experience. Plus, her responsiveness to inquiries and orders is truly commendable. I highly recommend Sweetly Baked by Cara for anyone looking for top-notch treats and service!“

“We decided to randomly doordash a sweet the other night and were excited to find them on doordash. I’ve had the ice cream when at the Avenue but never the cupcakes. OH MY GOD. These were to die for. They didn’t taste quickly manufactured or dry like some cupcake shops. They tasted like so much time and effort was put into keeping them moist, tasting amazing and looking amazing. Can’t wait to get them again!“

“I worked here for 10 years in the industrial Engineering department (Maintenance). Compared to other companies in the industry the salary is kind of low, but for anyone looking to start a career in this field it’s probably the best option there is. They will accept anyone who is willing to work and learn and they will train you. Most people spend a few years learning the trade and then move on to make more money. Myself included. I don’t understand why ownership would allow their best guys to leave that way rather than structuring something to compensate them for all their experience and skill, but that’s just how it is there. This is not to say you can’t make a decent living there because you can, but just not what could be made elsewhere. The high pace makes for a great learning environment. It’s extremely hot there, but most places are. That place will always be like a second home to me. I loved working there. If they could match my salary I would go back. That will never happen though for reason I’ve explained here already. They have extremely good benefits compared to anywhere else. Cheapest and great coverage. 401k is kind of low. Overall, best place for low experience people and a great place to work, but not somewhere to expect $100k a year or more. I always send people to them for jobs still and I’ve been gone for a couple years now. It’s just a great place to work.“

“Great little bakery specializing in Mexican pastries. These are authentic Mexican pastries! We found this bakery by accident while visiting Baltimore. The pastries were fresh and the owner even offered to make us something if we wanted something in particular. The prices were reasonable too. I whish we bought more for a our travel back home.“

“So happy to find this ? gluten-free restaurant! The owner was so kind to also navigate around my latex fruit allergies and made a special dish for me. Just wonderful people, the server was so kind, and the owner went the extra mile. Definitely eat here even with meat, vegetarian, and vegan options.“

“The only place to go for the freshest of bread. The Tsourekia (sweet bread) has my tastebuds on cloud with the perfect balance of sweet and soft. Made a mistake trying to bake my own. I know where I’ll be getting all my baked breaded goods from here on out. Tasos greeted me with open arms and made it a fun visit.“

“I was a bit thrown off by how empty the store looks, but they have quality food and the owner is super friendly and helpful. I bought some Arab pantry items, spices, olives, hummus, frozen falafel. The olive oil is insanely good and very reasonably priced. I’ve always wanted to try preserved lemons so I picked them up there. There’s much more that I want to try (different pickles, halawa) that I’ll come back for. Check it out!“

“One of the best bakeries I’ve ever been to. The line might seem a bit intimidating, but trust me, it’s worth it. There’s a line for a reason. Not only do they have some of the most fun specialty drinks I’ve seen (sipping on a Fig Chai Fog right now), but the food is orgasmic. This morning, My boyfriend got us a bunch of things to split, including the breakfast sando. The fact he even gave me half of this is commendable. If I tried it first, just like he did, I would have hidden the rest for myself because there’s no way would I share it. It is the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. The chipotle pepper jelly makes me want to do cartwheels. I also highly recommend the crab dip bagel, but really anything you get will be amazing. Always the best service too! Super sweet workers. If I was nonstop customer facing I don’t know if I would have a smile on my face like they do. Bravo!“

“I went for the first time yesterday for happy hour. I've been craving oysters. I was not disappointed. The bartender was great, the bar crowd was fun, food fantastic and drinks were perfect. Will definitely be a regular at this spot!“

“OMG! I ordered the Cookie Bucket from The Great Cookie on Doordash. I had forgotten how good their cookies taste. It was a nice portion and the cookies were fresh. I got them to snack on when I watch holiday movies. They almost didn't make it! I will be ordering there again.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES!“

“the desserts were amazing and my kids loved it“

“The only place comparable to the Jersey bakeries I grew up with. Such great staff too!“

“Family Owned and Operated Outstanding Service and the Food is Delicious 😋 Definitely Recommended fresh mango water“

“I love their marshmallow donuts because they're the best, plus there's none around my way. And thing I love best is the apple crumb pie. It is so delicious, but sometimes they run out really fast so one or two or whatever. You'll love them“

“Just found this place did not know it took over the old Subway subs location. So glad I found it. They have a lot of different desserts unfortunately everything's in Spanish and they only speak Spanish but there is one girl there that speaks English and as long as you can point at something you can buy it they don't have as much as the traditional bakeries but they do have quite a lot and you got to give them credit for opening up during coronavirus time. They were very friendly and the place is very clean. They also offer birthday cakes made to order so this would be a great addition to the neighborhood.“

“Hey This place is fantastic for drivers, In and out in 45 minutes or less
Yes, its difficult to get there, but you feel that they care about you, driver and your precious time. PLEASE PLEASE don't ruin that by hiring CAPSTONE LOGISTICS
This please has fantastic management and crew
Thank you“

“Princess Cakes Artistry made my daughter's wedding cake. Wedding was May 28, 2023. The cake was 3 tiers, different flavors. beautifully decorated just the way we asked her. It was absolutely delicious, super moist. I will never order a cake from anywhere else. Pricing is very reasonable. Can not say enough wonderful things about this bakery. Thank you so much“

“I miss when they used to do that monopoly thing where you would buy foods and fill out this paper monopoly bored for prizes. It was so much fun, I remember dozens of glue sticks being used dry pasting the food labels onto the paper bored with my family. It was placed in the middle of our dining room table like a bowl of fruit, and me and my little brother would beg my grandma every time she went to the store to get the “monopoly food”. She always did, even though it costed more than the regular groceries that were the same exact thing. We never won anything, no free vacations or Nintendo DS’s, but it still brightened my day every single time I glued a piece of paper on that damn board. I think we won in that way.

Thanks Safeway for letting me spend time with my ya ya before she passed. I wouldn’t give up my memories of paper monopoly with groceries for the world.“

“Was just there last week and bought a combo 6 pack. She had JUST pulled them out of the oven. Tasted just as I expected them to. PERFECT!!! My wife and I have been enjoying Cinnabon since 99'. So glad we found them out here. We're from San Diego and as long as we still have some of our vices we can survive. Like ColdStone, Whole Foods, and a beach less than an hour away.“

“Best bagel I’ve ever had. Including every spot I’ve been to in NY. Breakfast sandwiches amazing. Biscuits. Vibe is so chill, staff friendly, absolutely love this place“

“What a lovely, friendly and delicious afternoon! The place looks beautiful, the tea divine and the food spectacular! Thank you for the fun experience!! All should go!“

“ive been getting cakes from this store since I was 13 and have always been excited for my birthdays just because of the cakes I get! The cakes I’ve gotten are always super cute but the kind of service you get does vary depending on who you speak to on the phone. One of the girls that answered was super rude and seemed annoyed with every question I asked. I noticed another customer has also had this problem which sucks because the one thing I enjoyed when coming here is how nice they are. The girl I usually speak to is super sweet though and is always willing to help!“
