“WOW I stopped in and got a few different desserts. Strawberry croissant, Banana pudding and white chocolate cheesecake all were excellent! Not too sweet and very creamy smooth texture. highly recommend!!!“

“Delicious baked goods & food. Phenomenal staff. An absolute must-visit in our community.“

“I cannot recommend Dessert First enough. We got a custom cake made for our daughter’s “Two Sweet” birthday party. It was a beautifully designed cake and tasted just as amazing. The customer service was also really great. I highly recommend!!“

“Hands down the best bakery in town. Bert’s has been our go to bakery for the last 20+ years and was beyond ecstatic when they opened the Westnedge Ave location as it is closer to us as we drove from Three Rivers. Every time we order a cake we think it’s the most beautiful cake. This time is no different- but the photos doesn’t show it’s sparkle; Holly added a special glitter touch this time to celebrate our momma’s 70th birthday. Thank you to all the Bert Bakery ladies that have continued to bake and serve the community with great but absolutely beautiful treats.“

“Amazing and delicious! Got a few yummy treats today and can't wait to go back.“

“Best cookies ever I love how everyone is always so friendly and kind“

“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! ❤️“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“We popped into Bagel Beanery this morning and wow — fresh-baked bagels and coffee done right! Their selection of bagels alone? So much variety and flavor. The atmosphere felt warm, local and genuine — just the kind of spot we love highlighting. If you’re looking for a great start to your day in town, this place is a must-visit. 💙“

“Amy was lovely to work with for my wedding cake. She did such a beautiful job, gave me exactly what I was looking for in the design, and my guests loved it. It arrived right on time and everyone adored it! She made the whole process very easy on our end as well.“

“I have always enjoyed being able to shop at this outlet store! Having moved North and they close the stores down up north I really do miss having it available! So while I'm here in town I'm going to make a visit and getting enough to take home with me when I return! Thank you Aunt Millie's for being available! I just wish more Outlets stores would open back up!“

“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!“

“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!“

“This donut shop was fairly busy during my visit, but the staff was still attentive and friendly. It’s a nice place that feels a tad old fashioned inside, but the prices were great and the donuts excellent. I got a few different types to go, and they all tasted great. The pistachio muffin was probably my favorite, but the apple crumb was also delicious. I can see why the place is so popular. It’s definitely living up to the hype.“

“I wasn’t able to catch his name, but the man that helped us was so kind! He payed extra attention to us, got us water, and gave us some free donuts as we were leaving. He was so generous, and I will be returning later to hopefully give a tip and catch his name!“
