“My husband and I had a late breakfast at the Timonium location on December 27, 2024. Upon arrival, at almost 11:30 AM, the hostess named Samantha, was seating another group of people. We watched Samantha clean tables, set place settings, before returning and seating us. We soon took note that this very pleasant hostess/greeter was taking on several jobs: we watched her methodically bus tables, return to awaiting guests in line and proceed to repeat the same process...while also being the cashier for departing guests who were paying their bill. As more and more people arrived, we watched Samantha's professionalism never waiver. Our waitress named Kelly was also pleasant. She quickly took our order and soon returned with drinks. Not long later, another kitchen helper returned with our plates of food. I commented on how well everyone was working and gave a special appreciation to Samantha. We observed Samantha rearrange tables to accommodate groups of people while maintaining her warm smile that revealed her love for her job and customers! The food was delicious, and the service was above standard. Employees at this location really work well together but Kudos to Ms. Samantha who worked above and beyond expectations!!!“

“We went for lunch ,tomato soup and one got their summer strawberry salad..... and my sister got a sandwich....only issue was I had asked for an extra dressing.....and it was a 1/2 filled little container that they use for dressing..... I did not ask for an extra drop of dressing but a fully filled container!!!!“

“This has been our go to spot for over 10 years now in Hamden! Great for comfort, food or brunch and always a fun atmosphere. The service has gotten so much better over the years and everyone there is incredibly sweet and friendly. I love that they keep good staples on the menu, but are always trying to reinvent New dishes to complement the old standbys. And even though prices have raised at most other places, this place still remains incredibly affordable.“

“Randomly ordered this morning through DoorDash, and I found this place. what a gem. The food was absolutely amazing and super quick delivery into the city. sandwiches were still hot and gooey. So thankful they are not right down the street for me as I would probably give them all my money. keep up the good work.“

“we had a wonderful omlette bar for the teachers at our school! Glen was easy to work with and the food was great!“

“Been going to Sweet 27 for probably 12 years. My grandson is 6, this is his favorite spot. Friendly staff and great food.“

“The food was great! The owner explained how he brought food recipes from Afghanistan. Two of us shared the Kabuli Gosht Palau with Kabul eggplant. We also had the pumpkin called Kabul Kaddo that comes with bread. The flavors and freshness of the food are what stand out to me. We also enjoyed the Shugufa (means flower bud in Arabic) tea. It’s a whole pot of tea with a flower in it. It had a subtle flavor and aromatic smell. We ended with an order of Baklava. Everything tastes like it’s from someone’s home and unlike anything I’ve had in a restaurant. The prices are reasonable for the quality of the food. The restaurant, though, is small. Make a reservation so you are sure to be seated. The restaurant seems to do a lot of takeout. The business also displays beautiful rugs for sale that adds to the feel of Afghanistan. For me, the experience of eating the food and drinking the tea in this sweet place was calm and comforting.“

“Best chicken salad sandwich on sour dough bread I ever had.“

“Our Mens Ministry had a fellowship breakfast earlier this month and we were beyond satisfied. The food, drinks and service was exceptional! We will continue to have our monthly fellowship here as long as they’ll allow. Speaking for the men who attended, we HIGHLY recommend this business and we’ve recommended it to other groups, family and friends.…“

“The best pastries in town ! Always something new to try.“

“Amazing bagel sandwich with crisp bacon and a perfectly cooked egg with a jammy yolk. Iced coffee was fine but unmemorable. S’mores cookie is a 10/10. One star knocked off because it’s very a cramped space and layout, but understood given the building.“

“A huge thank you to the folks at One World Cafe for coming to the Hopkins football tailgate crepe tent rescue. We discovered post game when it was time to start cooking for the team that we left our cooler of eggs and milk on the 7th floor of the Marriott parking garage. We had all the toppings but no crepe ingredients! Remembering all the great breakfasts I have had at One World (as a regular customer we have always received stellar service and food) I dashed across the street to see if they could spare some eggs and milk. Everyone was so friendly and kind and happy to help and saved the day with 8 eggs and a gallon of milk! Thank you so very much. Your kindness was much appreciated and helped our team celebrate our win! 5 stars for quality service and kindness and generosity as a bonus!“

“My favorite coffee shop / cafe in Bolton hill. The food is delicious, generous servings, & reasonably priced. The coffee is excellent. The staff is wonderful too. On a nice day I love sitting outside. 💛 thank you OTH for being such a gem in the community.“

“This is a great place to experience a proper English afternoon tea. The teas are amazing. The scones are too and everything else. I love coming here whenever I get the chance.“

“Miss Shirley's always makes you feel welcome. The staff and atmosphere are friendly and low key. The food is great and a little bit different--enough so that you want to come back and try something new. Their fried green tomatoes are rated Best in Maryland by Southern Living magazine.

Wheelchair accessibility: Level entrance.“

“The breakfast sandwich was awesome, the cheddar was great with phenomenally cooked eggs. We also got the pancakes which were fantastic as well. I got the hazelnut mocha iced which was okay, wanting to try other coffees to see if I like any others better. A definite go to for a quick breakfast stop.

We got a carrot cupcake to go which was awesome, equivalent if not better than cake by Jason!

Parking: Busy area during weekends and prime time hours“

“The brunch menu prepared by Chef Mario was unique and adventurous, but not out of touch for casual diners. The pastries were phenomenal we chose the Kouign-Amann which were flawless and so delicious as well as the Cheddar, Jalapeño and chive scones. Both were served with butter and jam. She had the Chicken and waffles that came with a harissa-kohlrabi slaw and ginger-lime maple syrup. Spicy,sweet and complex on the palate. I had the Chesapeake Benny, poached eggs, maryland crab on top of a breaded fried green tomato with tarragon hollandaise, grilled asparagus and home fries! Every bite was intensely pleasing. Each dish was plated beautifully and each component worked so well together. We got more pastries to go home with. Our server, Andrea was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the food she was serving and its presentation. She was kind enough to gift us her favorite scone flavor on the house! I can honestly say it was the best meal (not just brunch) I've had all year. Thanks! Matt and Jodi“

“Because I was in a big big hurry, the Guy behind suggested a list of items that will be quicker to make. I chose Pork Buns. Omg. They r really good. If you’re on the run as much as I am, great food to get“

“Amazing communal living in a beautiful location. So blessed to live with amazing people. The landlord, Angelo Otterbein, takes great pride in securing a clean, well maintained property for all of us to enjoy! Whenever an issue arises, he's prompt in addressing and resolving. THANK YOU ANGELO! #GOODLIVING #greatlandlord #wonderfulcommuntiy“

“Went to Ashland Cafe last Saturday night... The food was great the band was great but our waitress was exceptional...Becca went above and beyond with her service.... She needs a raise... Well definitely be back!!!“

“Pizza was great, didn’t love that you could only order online and it was a minimum 1.5 hour wait. I thought maybe they were busy but I showed up early hoping it would be done and it was empty and cashier told me pizza guy had to step out … lol what? Not great first impression.“

“Great place for food, coffee, and pastry’s. All of the food we had was very tasty. We got a ham and cheese croissant and 3 lattes because they were so good. Will definitely come back if we are in the area. Check this place out is is great!“

I get large orders here that are sometimes complicated, and no matter what, they’re always friendly and serve with a smile. The food is also amazing! I’ve never been disappointed, and constantly try something new. Despite the location, hands down one of the best restaurants I’ve ever encountered.
TLDR: Great food, Great service, Great Price, Great People.“

“Usually good food, but ordered the cauliflower soup this week and it was inedible and overpowered with rosemary. Even my friend who will eat anything wouldn't eat it. I hate food waste, but there was no way I could eat more than one spoonful.“

“Oh my, oh my! This right here is like heaven in your mouth. I gobbled the warm ham and cheese croissant like I hadn't eaten in a year ...big flakes falling to the floor, and the overweight Chihuahua was grateful. I've never eaten such a delicious concoction!!!! My first sampling of your goods was a surprise delivery from my rescue partner. My only regret is that I only got one of them! I'll be visiting you soon!!! You are THE master of your craft!!! Extremely superior product!!! Thanks so much for yet another reason to love Beaver County!!!! 🐾💕🐾“

The black teas are delightfully full & perfect with, or without a meal. This shop is a GEM, & is located right here, in the Mnt Vernon neighborhood of Baltimore City.“
