Stand-up guy with an amazing café. So glad to see him and his family putting amazing food out after all of these years. You will not be disappointed!“

“This woman is Amazing in the cake she made me for my New Year’s Eve reception. She . I sent her a picture and she made me a cake 🎂 of my dream. I literally screamed in excitement when I picked it up. She went way beyond the call of duty. Making me a custom base that lights. She worked in my budget and everyone at my reception loved it so much because how unique it was and wanted her into to order!!!“

“Cheesy Eddie’s is truly the best of the best! The desserts are amazing, the people are incredibly kind, and the service is outstanding. I’ve ordered many desserts from here, but I wanted to share my experience with a custom cake I recently ordered.

I came in with an idea and a vision, and they brought it to life perfectly. The cake not only looked incredible, but it tasted just as amazing. It was a total hit at the party and truly stood out.

I’m so grateful to Andrea, the cake decorator, for helping bring my vision to life, and to the rest of the staff for being so wonderful during pickup. If Cheesy Eddie’s hasn’t been part of your special occasions (or any time you’re craving dessert), you’re doing it wrong. 10/10 recommend!“

Also tried the banana bread it is really yummy and those ginger turmeric bar are also really yummy. The bread is different a little like a pumpernickel I really liked it ! Love this place it’s one of the hidden gems of ROC glad we tried it ❤️“

“Lynn’s desserts are absolutely delicious, and she is an amazing person to work with. I found Lynn when I was searching for someone to do the desserts for my upcoming wedding. From our first correspondence, she was kind, knowledgeable, and patient. When we received our tasting box, we were amazed at the quality, texture, moistness, and overall taste of ALL the cupcakes she provided. Hands down, Delectable Desserts is the absolute best!!“

“Oh Sunny Six Grain how I love thee.... My favorite bread of theirs, and the breakfast sandwich is so good even my grumpy 15 year old will get up early for one!“

“Scratch has made quite a few different desserts for my family and they have gone above and beyond expectation every time. Just when you think their cakes are the best you’ve ever had, their cookies and fresh doughnuts enter the arena too. 🤣 I cannot stress enough about how great their treats and staff are. ❤️“

“Lily is a wonderful woman, my husband has been helping her with some things around her bakery so he wanted to introduce her to our family which is why we were there. To thank him for his help she is always sending us some of her delicious baked goods. I highly recommend stopping in and checking out what she has.“

“Best chocolate babka ever. They do a wonderful job catering too. We used them for my son’s post-wedding breakfast and we heard nothing but great things about the food!“

“Great strombolis; customer service slow to reply when a problem arises (20 weeks in my complaint's case) but they WILL respond to a valid complaint. Patience is definitely a virtue here - I'm thinking they're swamped and/or understaffed (it would explain both their response time AND the mistake that had prompted my complaint).“

“Seriously everything in this place is vegan and it is all incredible. That said it's all a big sugar bomb but for the occasional treat this is incredible. A must to bring even your non-vegan friends as they would never know!! Updated from previous review on 2026-02-14“

“Just had these at the Public Market during the food truck rodeo. Easily the best apple cider donut I’ve ever had. And I lived on an apple farm growing up that made these types of donuts fresh everyday lol. Would highly recommend getting them and eating them hot!“

“Brads Cookie Nook has the best cookies. My sister was thrilled to get a special delivery for Christmas in Ohio!“

“Love this place. Wonderful selection of tasty fresh breads, pies, cakes, and cookies. Get there early in the day for the best selection, or order ahead once you have seen their selections. Parking behind the building, often scant. The back door is no longer open so you have to thread your away around to the front door.“

“The absolute best customer service you could ask for! Kellie was amazing to work with, so kind and responsive. I wouldn't order my cakes from anywhere else!“

“I love the place, So glad that they reopened!!!! I normally Polish off 2 rolls on the drive home.“

“An iconic Little Italy Neighborhood business with delicious bread and sweets!“
