“I wish I had a picture, but I wanted to try cheesecake again, and OMWord, I got a slice of the Golden Oreo from Barrett’s.YUM!!!!! It’s not the normal super smooth cheeses cheese cake this has a beautiful texture as well as taste. I’m hooked! I’m hoping to try PB or Brownie Bottom or the PBBB next week for my bday. Goodbye summer bod! ❤️“

“We tried a little bit of everything since it was our first time there. There is a small language barrier but the ladies were still very helpful and nice. We got the chicken tacos, beef tacos, tamales, and I don't know the name of the other item ?‍♀️? but I took pictures! Everything was really good, the tamales were very different from Mexican tamales. They weren't bad, just unexpectedly different, I don't know if we'd get those again. It was made with rice and what appeared to be an entire chicken thigh - bone and all. Would highly recommend trying tho, will be going back on a Saturday to try their bakery items ?“

“Absolutely my first pick for local treats!! We love to stop in and grab a Banana or Oreo pudding to pop in the fridge for a late night snack 🤫 and I will talk about how delicious their sticky buns are every chance I get!“

“Hands down the absolute best bakery! We used Berts for my daughter's wedding a month ago and we did a cake on each table instead of one big cake (we had many different food allergies.). everyone is still raving about the cakes! They were absolutely fabulous and the workmanship of Amy the owner, attention to detail and just the professionalism she showed was incredible. We were so happy with our choice. Do not hesitate to use Berts! Thank you Amy“

“Omg, besides the fact that we loved how cute your place was, we did a bakery crawl today and picked your place as one of our stops. Will be back! So good! We got churros, sweet bread, and a couple of other sweet items. You guys were friendly and helpful! Thank you!“

“I work at Bronson Hospital. They always have your Carrot Cupcakes but I’m not a big carrot person. Monday , I found that they sell the Choc Expresso now. I’m not a fan of Coffee but really needed Chocolate. That cupcake was one of the best I’ve ever had. I think I’m now addicted. I got the Carrot cheesecake for my husband. He said - very good!!!!“

“Small Mom and Pop shop. Best bagels ever! Today, I got the Asiago cheese right out of being made! OMG best ever. The menu sandwiches look so good. (On diet, so bagel is plenty for me) They have a big refrigerator case with lots of drink options. I do not drink coffee, so not sure how it is. I was happy to find Celsius and my fav flavor. They also have various Asian ice cream, candy, etc.

Parking: Parking is great, right now! S. Westnedge is all blocked due to construction. This makes it less traveled so parking is easy to find. They have a parking lot and side street parking & usually parking right out front.“

“First time customer and was very surprised that Bert's Bakery - Comstock had so many non food items. There is a big assortment of candles, puzzles, cards, figurines and more! I was expecting a bakery only so the additional items were a bonus. The woman running the business was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return!As for the bakery, I ordered a vanilla cake slice with coconut cream. Delicious! There was a nice selection of cake slices and I think three different types of cookies to choose from. That was all I saw. Don't know if they serve drinks or anything else.“

“The best place downtown to get coffee. amazing atmosphere with their indoor greenhouse, awesome pastries and fresh bagels made every day. They also have homemade soup often including home grown ingredients.“

“This coffee shop is one of my top Picks! Great service and great coffee!!! I haven’t had a bad experience here and would highly recommend it!“

“Go here to get our different kinds of breads whole wheat,white, raisin and others. They have hamburg buns different sizes and styles some with or without seeds. The have donuts plain,powdered and nuts. They have pastries and pies sometimes they are filled. They are from the delivery trucks that were out for the stocking the store shelves. The products are fresh leftover that stores didn't get stocked or pulls from from close dated from the store. You can always find surprises here at a great price.“

“We had the best experience with Layla’s Cool Pops. I ordered cake pops for my entire staff and on the day I was supposed to pick up we had a major issue at work that did not allow me to be there. The girls noticed it without me calling and took care of me. Hands down BEST service in town. The cake pops were so delicious. Thank you for an amazing experience!“

“Only the Best place to eat in kzoo.!!!“

“I just stopped here after three years of Not having sweet water! I stopped in at the drive-through and Olivia was amazing! Her customer service was amazing and it’s hard to find that nowadays! She even was able to show me the difference between a yeast donut and a cake donut she was just fabulous! I couldn’t remember what donuts I ordered, and she even gave me the sheet of all the donuts that I had got! I will definitely come back when I have more chances! Thank you, Olivia 🫶🏻“
