“I would like to give four stars, but that’s just because a friend of mine has his own cookie company. When I would tell you is the multiple times I’ve been in the store for DoorDash and then as a customer, they’ve been nothing but very polite and then very delicious not necessarily the employees I don’t know them that well, but the cookies themselves lol“

“I usually have bad experiences with restaurants and shops, but this place is a place to remember as the room feels like you're walking into heaven for cookies and more. AMAZING customer service and kept really clean inside and outside really makes you feel welcome. And the cookies are made just the way you order them. Makes me feel happy!“

“My daughter loves Crumbl their cookies. They Fulfil and their served their niche of providing cookies that the Fire captain that used live next door and has2 daughter's one close to my daughter age, I asked her and her dad did she try crunbl cookies and he said he didn't buy Crumbl Cookies, he thought they were ABIT Pricey. He would purchase from Walmart for the girls cookies. I was going to offer purchasing his youngest daughter an order of Cookies, but thought better of that. I didnt want to over step the father's decision not purchasing Crumbl Cookies, my Daughter Olivia just loves their cookies“

“After Fox and Bull's sourdough bread served as a key component for the best grilled cheese of my life this summer, when I grabbed some treats at the farmer's market in OP, I knew my life was about to change. The almond bear claw was an absolute delight, and the greatest challenge was eating it slowly and savoring it instead of inhaling it in one bite. And the chocolate chip croissant is so light and buttery and flaky, it might have been made by an actual angel. I seriously cannot recommend Fox and Bull enough.“

“Wow!! Such an incredible date night!! The warm sweet potato rolls were Perfection!! The old fashioned & the Strawberry bellini were delicious!! We ordered the duck & steak! Both grilled perfectly!! The duck had heirloom carrots with hazelnuts. The steak was served with beef fat potatoes! Seriously Delicious!! We took home a piece of the chocolate ganache cake. Can't wait to enjoy it later!! Everyone was so genuinely friendly & welcoming!!! This place is impeccably decorated!! It's Gorgeous!! Beautiful flowers too!! It's a truly a delight for all your senses!! Highly recommend!! Thank you so much for an Outstanding experience!!!“

“Amazing! Stella, our waiter was wonderful and made our group lunch that much better. Some had individual items, but most had the prie fixed lunches with different options chosen. All was so tasty, amazingly presented and just superb.
I definitely got some treats to go and am looking forward to my next visit.“

“Great coffee, food and staff. Will definitely be back!“

“Stopped here for breakfast before leaving KC - so worth it! The cinnamon roll, gooey butter cake, and breakfast hash were delicious! This place was highly recommended and I can see why. The hot mocha latte I got was great too! The place was packed and busy but they weee FAST on getting food and drinks out.“

“Absolutely phenomenal. Hands down the BEST cake we’ve ever had! Taylor crafted the most stunning 3-tiered wedding cake for our wedding in May. Tay was very communicative, prompt, and brought such creativity to our vision. Every single flavor (lemon curd, chantilly, marble, and classic almond) was an absolute hit! Since our wedding, we’ve had multiple family members and friends reach out to express how much they loved our wedding cake. We haven’t stopped thinking about it either and are anxiously counting down the days to our one-year anniversary to have that top tier! 301 days to go!“

“We ate here last week and the food and service was phenomenal! The food had the best flavor & was so fresh! Very clean restaurant! We will be regulars!“

“We hosted my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary celebration at Be Free Family Farm last Saturday, and I couldn’t recommend the venue highly enough. It was perfect. One of the best things about the space is how adaptable it is. I’d been to a high school grad party there before, and I can’t think of anything further from a 50th anniversary than that! Be Free fit both perfectly. We had around 100 people total, with about 60–70 at the peak, and it was a little crowded but in an energetic way if that makes sense. It was mid-July and pretty hot outside, but the indoor space stayed cool the whole time. I’d love to host something there in the fall with the garage doors open. I’m sure that’s the perfect balance. Carl, Jennifer, and Scott were fantastic. They helped with setup, made sure we had everything we needed (including things we didn’t think of until we got there). Carl was quick to offer a ride for guests from the parking lot since we were dealing with mostly older guests. Scott and Jennifer helped welcome people inside and out, literally opening doors and showing people around. The sound system was great. They helped me get it going, and now I obviously want a Sonos setup at home 💀💰💵 Shout out to Apple Music for the ‘1975 pop rock’ playlist that was an easy option for a 50th anniversary. We catered food from Zarda BBQ in Blue Springs. I picked it up myself and ordered for 60, but we ended up with more than enough. Be Free had some catering equipment that we used. Here’s a text I got from my mom, 1/2 of the guests of honor: “Everyone said it was a great party and it truly was. Perfect place, perfect food. So much fun.” If you’re planning an event check out Be Free Family Farm!“

“After finally stopping to try the Bahn Mi, it has become a weekly part of our diet! The food is incredible and so fresh. The pickled veg in the Bahn Mi is everything! The bread… omg. My favorite is the Special with extra pickled veg. Also anything with the Pate’. Steamed Pork Bun! The staff is so friendly and attentive! They also have coffee and pastries!“

“I had a hard day and needed a pick me up, so I decided to go get a cinnamon roll. It was exactly what I wanted, the pastry was hand rolled, dripping with cinnamon, sugar and butter. You could see each individual layer, simply baked with love! It was huge, well worth every penny, and I enjoyed every bite. The owner was in the kitchen and I asked if he would come over to meet me, he did and I complemented him on his food and the time and passion he put into each roll. We laughed and talked for a while. I told him that I drive past several locations just to specifically come to his because of the consistency of his products. He thanked me, I thanked him and my day was a little brighter!“

“We ordered red velvet cupcakes and cookies for a birthday party for my partner. They were not only delicious but also beautiful. I forgot to snap a picture before they were devoured but everyone raved about how amazing they were!“

“My Daughter and I stopped here Jan 31, and Feb 6th both time we tried something new! Was so amazing!! A MUST go!!!“

“In the front they have a bunch of loaves you can buy. I eat gluten free, you can call and place an order for a gluten free loaf - even just one, and pick it up the next day. It’s cheaper than if you find the gluten free loaves in a store. Cash only!“

“Cake pops were exactly what I asked for. Super adorable and very delicious!! I was super impressed with the amazing quality and a great price too!!“

“Great deli sandwhiches“

“Amazing place! The service was amazing! The coffee was amazing! The croissant was AMAZING! and I could not forget my loaf of sourdough bread. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Received two loaves Thursday. Both were wonderful. Lovely texture, taste, smell! I will order again, and again, and again... Thanks!“

“Encargue un pastel y si estaba rico, es la primera vez que ordeno y si me gusto. Pero desafortunadame no era la decoracion que yo pedi 😔, lo pedi que me lo decoraran con fresas y duraznos y pues esto fue lo que me entregaron 😔. Pero fuera de eso, el servisio muy hamable y el pastel estaba rico“

“We had a great time at Donutology in Westport! Delicious, fresh, choose-your-own-toppings, kid-friendly. Hardworking staff, friendly, great atmosphere. Will be back!“

“YUM! Love, love, love the new turkey Swiss croissant sandwich!!!!“
