“Golden Hands Bakery is filled with masterpieces of deliciousness. Ron and I stopped in today for an Opening Day Donut for a home run review! My Apple fritter was crispy on the outside and moist and power packed with cinnamon and apples on the inside. Ron’s sticky bun was sticky and Carmel coated with pecans and cinnamon. Beyond amazing morning experience ?“
“The food was all delicious - including our schnitzel sandwich + side of kasespatzel, pretzel + beer cheese, and Hawaiian Flammkuchen. Our 6 month old sends compliments to the owner and chef for being so helpful for her to have some plain cooked carrots! Service was incredible and friendly and we definitely will need to return!“
“Cincinnati hit the jackpot with Boosalis Baking! I used to jet off to Paris for work, trying every croissant spot there, thinking nothing could match up back home. But Boosalis proved me wrong in the best way!Their chocolate croissant (pain au chocolat) is the real deal. Seriously, it gives the famous spots in Paris a run for their money. And don't even get me started on their plain croissant—it's a close second to my favorite in Paris, Ble Sucre.Now, I can get my croissant fix without the long flight. Big thanks to the Boosalis team for bringing a slice of Paris to Cincinnati!“
“Always a tasty treat, I love these cookies, but hate the lack of customer service, I was waiting for quite a while and I had pre-ordered to avoid that ended up waiting almost 15 minutes to pick up my order.Parking: Watch out for traffic here it's busy.“
“i never leave reviews on places, but i genuinely loved it so much that i had to. the environment was so calm and welcoming and very cozy. the employees were SO nice, and on top of that, i had easily the best matcha latte i’ve ever had. highly recommend this place for a chill hangout or to get some work done :)“
“Cafe Mochiko left us thoroughly impressed during our visit from out of town. We dined there twice over a weekend, once for dinner and once for morning pastries, and we were blown away both times. During dinner, we enjoyed a variety of appetizers, including the savory and fragrant Mochi Mochi Panic, Karaage, and Kabocha Raisu, all of which were hits. For the entree, we tried The Ohio from their rotating menu, which featured a rich pork and fish broth with tender sous vide pork and chewy noodles—an absolute delight.On our second visit, we stopped by for pastries on a Sunday. Despite about 15-minutes wait in line, the pastries were well worth it. We tried out a variety of their signature pastries, including the Ube Croissant and Genmaicha Melonpan, all of which were so well-made and delicious.Overall, Cafe Mochiko is an exceptional Asian-inspired bakery and Japanese restaurant. While they don't take reservations and may involve a wait, it's well worth the visit. We are so thrilled to have visited this gem in Cincinnati!“
“We used Sweets by LaDawn for our wedding in May 2023 and we were extremely happy with the cake. It looked beautiful and tasted great as well. We also have to give her props for making a fantastic gluten free cake for our gluten sensitive guests. She was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. We have used her as well for our birthday cakes and we are always happy.“
“My friend and I happened upon this gem while on a girls day in Latonia. From the minute we walked in, we were welcomed with open arms. The baristas answered our questions and whipped up the most delicious drinks. The owner introduced herself and showed us around, quickly becoming a friend. We sat for a while on the amazing pink velvet couch and fell in love with this quaint little shop. Before we left, the owner offered to loan out her personal shopping cart (which she decorated for us). It was a memorable day and we will definitely be back!“
“What a gem of a donut shop! The shop is really cute, tucked into a quiet corner of Norwood. I was thrilled to choose 12 varieties today and my coworkers loved every one of them. I had the citrus marmalade, so tangy and unusual, and the marmalade is made in house! The chefs father was manning the counter and he was really kind and knowledgeable. They have monthly special flavors, which are very unusual and delicious. Highly recommend! I’m looking forward to becoming a regular customer!“
“My wife and I have been stopping in nearly every weekend for the past few months and are never disappointed. We get a loaf of the marvelous sourdough bread and a handful of pastries. We haven't been let down yet, and we don't expect to be anytime soon. Everything is carefully crafted, beautifully presented, and unbelievably delicious. Pre-ordering online is fantastic, but you'll want to grab some extra goodies, so just join the line when you arrive. It moves fast and the reward of wonderful treats is worth it.“
“Stopped in one morning and was overwhelmed with what this new, 5 minute from my house, Brazilian bakery is. To be frank it is a bit of a menagerie of things. Do they have coffee and sweets, yes, but not the pastries which I was expecting. Do they also have lunch items, yes, which I am excited to try but was not aware they were there. The name "Sweetness" is misleading as the store is more than just that. As someone who passes by on a daily basis I had no idea what they had and would have continued that trend without feeling a little adventurous today. I hope they are doing some marketing to the local businesses to spread their offerings.“
“Spoon Fulla Sugar was recommended to us by our venue. We appreciated their enthusiasm in creating exactly what we wanted for a special birthday cake with a travel theme. The cake was amazing inside and out. Our guests didn’t even realize at first that it was a cake! We highly recommend these talented bakers for your special occasion cakes.“
“I just adore Glendale! And bluebird bakery is one of the reasons why. It is a great little café to have lunch or just to have some coffee and dessert. Although they do not offer any other coffee drinks other than drip coffee - it is really good coffee. I also like it that they have the option to purchase whole pies!Dietary restrictions: They have gluten-free options“
“We stopped in today for coffees and we tried the eclair (divine) and the puff pastry hot dog (delicious). We’re already talking about what we’ll try when we come back. The proprietor was so friendly to use and even brought out a chiffonade for us to try while we waited! Can’t recommend this place enough.Parking: Free parking on the side of the building“
“Hey all, if you're looking for great cookies to cure that sweet tooth, look no further. Davis Cookie Company has something good for the cookie lover. Shakes are delicious! I can't go too often, won't be able to fit my clothes. “
“As regular patrons of the Indian Mouund Cafe, just down the street, we regularly visit Panaderia El Trigal. Even though we almost always visit at the end of the day, the pastries are fresh and flavorful. My wife and I both love the empanadas de pina, the tres leches cake, and the creme horns. If we're lucky, they have some tamal de cerdo (pork tomales) left and we've got a tasty lunch or dinner ahead later in the week. If you're in Norwood, stop by. It's worth it.“
“Ken was so flexible with a last minute order! The bourbon Carmel cheesecake not only looked amazing and smelled amazing but it delicious!!! It was for my brothers 40th bday which was a bourbon themed party! It was perfect!! Support your local businesses!!!“
“Some of the BEST cookies I have ever had. We ordered their chocolate chip and original burst cookies. They were so delicious and perfect for our family Easter.I ordered online and picked up my order in person. They helped me carry my order out to my car and were extremely welcoming.It was so nice to walk in the door watching them make the exact same cookies I ordered. You can’t beat these freshly baked cookies, such a nice hidden treasure.“
“I just tried this place for the first time through DoorDash and it was absolutely amazing. I ordered the cannoli, edible cookie dough, cinnamon roll, and the cookie with icing. It was all so delicious and the kiddos loved it as well. I will definitely be making another order soon!! “
“Stopped by on my way to the Cincinnati Nature Center for volunteer work to grab a bite with my coffee. The glazed croissant was soft and tasted wonderful as it melted in my mouth. The staff were super nice and obviously knew their regular customers. I will be back.“
“Reached out about 18 hours in advance to make a last minute Afternoon tea reservation for the next day. They went out of their way to accommodate my last minute party of 5. Incredibly kind owner and staff.Small but efficient team. I'm not an afternoon tea guy, but the ladies I brought were, and they absolutely loved it. They loved that it was a special experience, but was very approachable and inclusive for them. Friendly to kids as well. Can't thank them enough. Highly recommended.“
“The staff here are the best! They are friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient.....great team of young people. The ice cream quality is superb and there is a bonus play room for the little ones. I've yet to have a pastry from here but hear they are delicious. My family had a great experience here.“
“The staff behind the counter was friendly and happy. The ice cream was as delicious as always - one scoop of butter pecan and one of maple brown butter pecan - don't judge, it's the holidays - was the perfect way to finish off a busy holiday weekend.“
“I recently ordered seashell cookies from Cookies & Cupcakes by Design for my bridesmaid proposal, and they were adorable! The cookies featured delicate seashell shapes with a personalized "Will you be my bridesmaid?" message. They were not only visually appealing but also incredibly delicious.These seashell cookies were the perfect addition to my bridesmaid proposal box. They completed the look and tied everything together seamlessly. The attention to detail showcased the thoughtfulness of the design, making it clear that my wedding would be a destination event.Cookies & Cupcakes by Design provided exceptional customer service throughout the ordering process, ensuring the cookies would be on time and in perfect condition. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for unique and delightful treats for special occasions.Thank you, Cookies & Cupcakes by Design, for adding that sweet touch to my bridesmaid proposal and hinting at the destination wedding. I am truly grateful for your outstanding work!“
“?UPDATED? okay so I’ve been here several times as well as other locations and Graeter’s is hand down the best it’s absolutely incredible! The 1870 Tower is a sinful indulgence that’s not to be missed. Oh man!First time here. Came in with an open mind, thinking I wanted a banana split. But then the staff suggested the Black Raspberry Chocolate ice cream. Said it made up about 1/3 of their sales so I tried it and can see why! It’s delicious! Got a bag of chocolate malt balls to take back to the hotel. Graeter’s is a wonderful treat!“
“Tres Belle made us a beautiful cake for our wedding that was equally as delicious as it was pretty! We also did an assorted dessert bar from Tres Belle which was a huge hit with out guests. You cannot go wrong with any of their treats. They were easy to work with and did not disappoint! Thank you Tres Belle!“
“Love this place. Our code wasn't working and the worker (I think the owner) was able to figure it out and got our order in. We have had the almond croissant, chocolate chip cookies, whole wheat sourdough, original sourdough, and orange cranberry bread.All have been excellent and we are so glad to have a local bakery. Thank you!!“
“One of my favorite coffee shops in Cincy. I used to live right by it so I'd go just about every day. I've gotten to know the staff quite well over the years and they are all super nice and excellent baristas. Highly recommend buying their coffee beans in bulk if you like to make coffee at home too.“
“Love crumbl !! The interior of the store is so cute and inviting, and their staff is always so welcoming and friendly! Cookies are fresh and tasty, never had a bad experience!Parking: The stores are always located in areas with convenient parking!“
“Always love coming in here for a Brown Sugar Boba Tea! We've tried a lot of different bakery items here over the years, their bread rolls and cookies are always a good go, but their chocolate cake slices, any kind, yum!! This time we got a few Mooncakes! They are delicious!!“
“Can you ever go wrong with ice cream, especially Graeters? We came in the day after Thanksgiving for two scoops of flavors that you cannot buy in grocery stores in California. No one was in the shop, nobody was in line. We weren't pressured to do anything, but we are also offered samples as needed and wanted. Plus, no judgment for the lunchpail I bought.“
“Tom thank you and your lovely wife for such a delicious savory treat. I highly recommend anyone reading this to stop in and give ‘em a try for a not too sweet brownie but filled with awesome flavors from raspberry to oatmeal and many more. Absolutely refreshing to be able to actually taste the flavors and not just loads of sugar!! I was supposed to take a picture of the brownies I purchased but I ATE THEM !Parking: Spacious area“
“Th donuts are fresh and light, the cookies are some of the best iced cookies I have ever eaten. We also had the cream horns that were the perfect combination of pastry and cream.The women working was so kind and helpful. I love the small business aspect and will continue to support this wonderful store in the future!“
“Excellent Cincinnati bakery. Huge selection of cookies, doughnuts, cakes and pies. Large selection of special occasion cakes and cookies. The lady that waited on me was involved with a task when I entered, yet she greeted me, offered assistance and rang my order. I think her name was Glenda and was a pleasant chapter in my life today.“
“Original experience here was not so good, but I went back and tried it again. I got a crushed cherry sundae - pretty good and I will definitely be going back again to try some of the other stuff on the menu. The mix they use is rich and I am not sure you even need to put anything on it, it is that good!“
“I ordered the Christmas cookie decorating kit. The cookies were wonderful but they provided way more frosting than I needed to decorate them. The pricing was kinda high but the quality was certainly top notch so I justified the cost for that.“
“Stopped in today at the Eastgate mall to get some shopping done and ordered a cinnamon roll on my way through. Talk about quality ?. Top notch customer service as well. They warmed my cinnamon roll and gave me some extra frosting on the side. I quickly shewed my husband and kids away so that I could fully enjoy it. I will be back.“
“First time visiting Abby Girl Sweets. I wasn't disappointed with the cupcakes that were ordered. We we're able to find this location fairly easy from the Google directions, yay! It's a cute little shop that has a few tables and chairs to eat in. The young lady at the counter greeted us as we came in. When we placed our order any question we had was politely answered. We got a dozen cupcakes of various flavors. I'd say the spiced carrot was my favorite. If I had any complaints its that the cupcakes were smaller than what I'm used to but good all the same. The cupcakes were a hit at my sister's bday celebration.“
“The place to go for dessert! The macarons are delicious in every flavor if you want a little bit of sweetness to finish dinner. You can get a 6 piece pack or a 12 piece pack and can choose to have different flavors in the pack. The store itself is small and plain but does not take away from the macarons. The cashier was very nice and let us take time to choose the flavors we were interested in. Definitely not a packed place to enjoy a bit of sweetness on a cold day.“
“Service is top notch and The amaezing shakes are everything you could hope for and more! We ordered the strawberry, Oreo and s'mores shakes. The kids loved them and all the treats that came with them. We also ordered cookies and other desserts that we are looking forward to trying soon.“
“Highly recommend! Susan and The Sweeterie team made us the most adorable and fabulous tasting woodland themed baby shower cookies. DeeDee was fabulous, the decorating of the icing amazing and the craftsmanship of the baker exceptional! Customer service above and beyond.“
“Love the ambiance here. The place look warming and welcome despite the rundown parking lot. I love that they have quite a variety of flavors, also ice cream cake and pint for convenience sake. The service was great, the employees were help with choosing the flavor. The place look clean, so the employees must be on top of cleaning duty, which is such a big plus. Love them!“
“I contacted Jeana by Google search to bake my daughter 20th birthday cake. It was short notice but the cake was made with perfection... Jeana added her own little touch and it did not disappoint... The flavor was magical needless to say the cake was very moist and the icing was not too sweet. We will be customers for life if you see this post Jeana hospitality and service will speak for itself watch out Cake Boss ❤️“
“Ordered a last-minute tiered fruited and cream cake--not only was it put together SUPER quickly, it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and the presentation was perfect. Wowed everyone at the party!Please give this fabulous local shop your business. You will not be disappointed!“
“Family has used this bakery for decades---but recently I have been using them for office celebrations. I have had SO many people ask me where the cake is from because it's so good. Will be using them again for future office dessert needs.“
“Place is super cute and the cheesecake it’s phenomenal! The lattes are really really sweet (we tried the seasonal flight). It’s a cute idea totally in there. I think the owner was in serving us and she was great too. There is no place to sit and eat but outside (with it being Ohio you can bet it’s a 50/50 chance it’ll be nice enough lol). Worth a stop in for sure!“
“Awesome place one of the best Italian dining experiences in Cincinnati. If you're seeing something in the bakery on your way in to dine, get it then. Good chance it'll be gone when you come out. It's that goodParking: Popular place during peak dinner hours. Street parking near by“
