“Incredibly nice people and the sweet bread is so good! I no longer need to go anywhere else, as this is my favorite ?. Yes they ask you to wear gloves to keep everything sanitary and clean, as we are in the middle of a pandemic. Any one who complains over that is just weird, lol“

“Do yourself a favor, run ... don't walk to Crumbville! You won't regret it and if you run you will actually earn the dessert! :)

I have wanted to try Crumbville for a while now, but never seem to find myself in that area. Yesterday, I had a hankering for a cupcake, and it was rainy so I had zero interest in going anywhere. I found that Crumbville is on the Favor app, so I figured, why now?

I ordered the Blueberries & Cream Cheesecake cupcake. Wow, it was liking having a blueberry muffin, with loads of blueberries, and icing on top. It was so good!! I also ordered the Strawberries & Cream Cheesecake, Vanilla Peachy-cob-a-licious and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Snicker Crunch. All of the cupcakes are just so fresh and tasty. They are literally the best I have ever had.

I fully plan on stopping in sometime to check out the location. I hear the service is amazing, and I cannot wait to find out!“

“Coincidentally, I ran into someone wearing a Sinfull Bakery shirt. I asked about the vegan reference. I did not realize I was talking to THE Chef Dylan of the bakery. I decided to take a Saturday drive and check it out. Wonderful surprises were waiting for me! Had the Monkey Bread Muffin and purchased the cheesecake with apple topping for later. I will definitely return. Check it out.“

“Best cookies ever! Great variety!“

“I went in there yesterday to your bakery and got some sweet bread that my wife been asking me for. I loved all the sweet bread y'all sell there I got a little bit of everything and it was all worth my money. Very recommended to anybody especially over you of cakes y'all have now ❤️“

“I saw a review on instagram and it’s on my way to work so I stopped by today. I bought 2 chocolate croissants and a Guava plus a kolache. My coworkers loved the croissants and I fell in love with the guava. I rarely post reviews but I think you guys deserve 5 ⭐️“

“We went for breakfast on March 30, 2025, the service was great and the food was even better! My husband had the biscuits and gravy and he said it was the best that he had ever had, that it was even better than his mom’s! If you ever have the chance, please go and check them out, I promise you will not be disappointed!“

“Delicious definitely coming back 😋“

“I usually don't write reviews, but the amazing introduction and service I had earlier today here forces me to make an exception. I went with my mom and we had the pleasure to talk with Sydney (hope I spelled that right!), who was SUPER helpful, friendly, inviting, and gave me some cool information about the place, as well as recommendations. I had the Vietnamese Coffee, which was phenomenal, and got a dozen mini kolaches for my folks. I've spent most of my life here and idk how I didn't know about this place. This is definitely one of the better breakfast spots in the East End/2nd Ward, and I will definitely be returning to try other items on the menu. Thanks for taking care of us Sydney!! ❤️“

“I absolutely LOVED Great Harvest Bakery & Cafe! I am not sure why I took so long to visit. The bread is fresh and exquisite!!! They have a variety of breakfast and lunch options. The staff is fantastic, informative and friendly! Must try for yourself!“

“Wonderful birthday cake from Pignoli Bakery! Taste delicious and was beautiful. Great, creative bakery. Check them out!“

“One of the cookies tasted mostly like cookie dough I didn't mind too much but it caught me off guard . The other 2 were good but super sweet and in my opinion there was a little bit too much icing. More icing than cookie. I did get the mini ones though so maybe the proportions are a little different from the big ones. The cookies taste better cold in my opinion.“

“Best kolaches I’ve ever had. If there’s a line, it moves quick.“

They've always come through with high quality custom cakes when we've called, whether weeks in advance or days. They came through in the clutch for my wife's birthday recently. I absolutely recommend!“

“Great pan dulce, friendly staff“

“I was looking for a unique dessert with nuts for my Dad’s birthday and saw on their menu they had a Dubai Pistachio Cake. I had no clue what that was, but it had pistachio so I figured I would try it. I was blown away by just how incredible, unique, and delicious this cake was! I can’t stop thinking about it, and I might have to go back for a slice just for me. Highly recommend!“

“As my wife said, “Rise to Rescue”!! We had a late in the season family Christmas gathering and I had been tasked with the cookie decorating contest. I thought, “how hard could it be? Just go to YT and learn how to make icing, right?” Wrong. Outside of the deception on food network and kids baking championships, I knew nothing about cookies, icing or ‘piping’ other than throwing out those words occasionally-“hold on y’all let me throw these in the chiller real quick!” In normal male fashion, I called Rise Cupcakes the day before the event and the girl on the other end suggested the cookie decorating kit: 8 shortbread cookies-cut into holiday themes, 4 tubes of icing, and sprinkles. It was $28 at the time of this posting. I felt like a fool. I had budgeted a significant amount more money for this task than thirty dollars 🤦‍♂️. I clearly have no knowledge about the cost of these things OR this cookie kit is just an outstanding deal! They normally ask for a 3 day notice but they were very kind in working out the “rush” job with me. Went the next day, picked up the kit and that evening, kids AND adults got to decorating! Rise deserves 5 stars from me because 1) always super friendly and customer first attitudes 2) great selection of baked goods. I must confess, I’ve been going to rise since I moved back to the area almost 10 years ago. We have used them for big events (300+ cookie orders, their custom cakes, custom cookie orders, all the holidays and ofc a frequent flyer of the shop. Shame on me for just now writing a review. 3) Selection. It’s a bakery…if you want it fresh, you need to get there early in the week for cookies, cupcake selection is little bit stronger. But I’m a cookie guy, personally. 4) Design. They have an outstanding design artist(s) working there. The cutest artwork on themed cookies, for the holidays, seasons, and hometown teams. Last and certainly not least 5) Taste. If I had to pick my favorite cookie…idk…I love their chocolate chip, creme brulee cookie, buttercream pumpkin cookie, the shortbread is very good just by itself-add icing and it’s a very sweet treat! Don’t make me decide!!! 🙈. I love their cinnamon rolls-but if you want that, you have to special order. I think since learning they made them I’ve only seen them on the counter twice. Brownies, blondies, lemon bars, everything in between. The cakes are very special. You can choose between one and two tiers, they decorate with the fondant just like you see on cake boss; the taste is amazing. The texture and consistency of moist to dry and flavor is like my kids at school say, “a chef’s kiss” I left the long review with the different parts because nobody is perfect, and not any one business is going to 5 stars, 100% all the time every day. But Rise is so strong in all of those categories that when one thing might be a little off, the other areas make up for it. If for some reason you aren’t satisfied, go back and try something else. Like I said, I’m not a cupcake guy. But I love cookies. And I’m grateful to Rise for being local, small business, home grown, and absolutely delectable when it comes to treats. They will always be a favorite in our family.“

“Picked up 4 King Cakes for Fat Tuesday and they were absolutely fabulous! The pecan praline filled cake was yummy with chunks of pecans. I highly recommend them!!“

“The kolaches are delicious but I wish they would bring back the polish mild!! It was the best one!!! Please bring the polish mild back!!“

“When the recipe is baked right, these cookies can’t be beat. I love tiff’s treats and these cookies. My favorite cookie out of all brands and flavors is the lemon cookie from Michael’s. Trust me, it’s VERY good. I’ve been coming to this location for almost 4 years.“

“I bought my son's 1st birthday cake here, and it was AWESOME!!!! The taste and decorations were on point!! I will be ordering all my cake from here!! And, of course, their other bakery items are amazing!! Thank you Carmelitos Bakery for making my baby boy's birthday so special!!“

“My son is a huge Great American Cookie Co. fan and was determined to have one for his groom’s cake at his wedding. I was hesitant at first because I really wanted him to have something that resembled more of a tiered cake. With the help of Lameka Hadnot and Monigua Murphy, at the Baybrookmall Mall store in Webster, my son and I both got what we wanted. Thank you two so much for helping to make my son’s wedding special! Y’all are the best. The cookie cake looked amazing and tasted even better.“

“BROUGHT TACOS FOR MY CO-WORKERS, THEY ARE VERY SATIFIED!! TACOS ARE SO DELICIOUS.“

“We were exploring the Houston Downtown Tunnels when we stumbled upon Kolache Factory. As the smell of warm, fresh kolaches filled the air, we knew we had to stop in. We were immediately impressed by the friendly service and the wide variety of kolaches available. We ordered a selection of both sweet and savory kolaches, and they were all delicious. The kolaches were soft and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness and savory flavor. The fillings were generous and flavorful, and the kolaches were the perfect size for a satisfying snack. We also enjoyed the coffee and croissants, which were fresh and delicious. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and they made sure we had a great experience. Overall, we had a wonderful snack experience at Kolache Factory. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.“

“My mother's sewing themed cake not only looked beautiful but it was delicious as well. Erica was a joy to work with. She listened to my needs and delivered a cake that people are still talking about days after the party! The rice krispy treats were also delicious. I highly recommend Erica and This Little Cake of Mine for all of your baking and treat needs. I'm a very happy customer!“

“I got a Red Velvet cake to celebrate my 60th birthday. It is the best low carb / gluten free cake anybody in my family has ever had. Every interaction via text so sweet and informational. It was so easy to order and pay for my cake. The cake was worth every single penny!! I will definitely make the trip from Spring to get these delicious baked goods anytime. 💕💕“

“This place is consistently good! I have visited other kolache factories in the Houston area, and this is my favorite! Emily always greets us with a smile and the owner is equally friendly. They have a great Rewards program, and I love finding their coupons on the back of H-E-B receipts.“
