“My wife and I are regulars at Oxalis and we both love the food and coffee. However the customer service takes the experience to another level. The employees are amazing! This cafe is well worth the visit! I highly recommend the egg sandwich! Enjoy!“
“I want to give a major shout out to Angela, her mom, and the entire team at Cake Studio Panaderia Mexicana off of Viking Way in Poulsbo. They went above and beyond to help me put my Valentine's Day plan into action and create an incredible memorable experience for my wife that I am very grateful for.This year I got a head start on Valentine's Day and set a plan in motion a few weeks back. I reached out to our local Mexican panaderia in Poulsbo, to see if they could help me craft a bouquet of flowers filled with fresh Mexican conchas. If you don't know what a concha is, that's okay. It's a sweet bread that is perfect with coffee. My wife loves them so much she even has earrings of them.Angela at Cake Studios Panaderia, was just as excited as I was to put this idea in motion. The morning of Valentine's Day, I dropped off several bouquets that she and her mom then crafted with freshly made conches tailored to color match from their bakery into this outstanding concha flower arrangement. My wife had no idea what I was bringing back to her and she kept her eyes closed and when she opened them the surprise was fantastic. I'm happy I remembered capture on camera.Thank you Angela and the amazing team at Cake Studio Panaderia Mexicana for making such a delightful Valentine's Day possible.“
“A lovely place to stop in the morning and pick up a high quality pastry. Their croissants are some of the best I've ever had. Their bagels have excellent flavors (maybe a little small but you can get 2 and they're not that expensive). I've had their macaroons (im personally not a big fan but the lavender is nice). Would certainly recommend stopping in for a visit!“
“Since moving to Washington, I've heard about the great coffee scene. However, most places in Kitsap Peninsula are drive-thrus. I prefer sitting in a cafe, so finding Urban City Brew Co was a pleasant surprise. Despite having a drive-thru, their coffee is delicious with a unique menu. The excellent customer service made me feel appreciated. They even have a picnic table outside, offering a nice spot to enjoy your coffee with a view. Maybe I've been doing it wrong—coffee outdoors seems to be the way to go.“
“The first thing you noticed about this place is the smell!! It's donut/pastry heaven and they should bottle this smell into a candle. I ordered the maple bar and it was great! I am kicking myself for not grabbing the bread to enjoy when i got home! I guess I'll need to make another trip to Poulsbo! Sluys is a small shop with no seating, so head across the street to Hot Shot Java and grab a cup of coffee and enjoy your treats with coffee!“
“Golly… these folks are doing the Lord’s work. Had the steak & mushroom pie.Crust: perfectly crusty and flaky…while still holding together.Filling: gosh it was good.Gravy: made me offer thanksgiving to the Lord of all pleasures and goodness.“
“I feel so lucky to be living (temporarily) so close to this incredible source of perfect sourdough and amazing chocolate chip cookies! So far I’ve tried the classic and seeded sourdough loaves and both are fantastic! I love being able to stop by and pay via Venmo. Highly recommend!“
“TLDR; super long and slow lines, really nice pastries.When we got here (9.30am), the line probably had 7-8 groups ahead of us, and it took us about 20 minutes to get to the front. I got the savory croissant which was overall pretty quite nice. Unfortunately it felt a bit oily (not buttery) to me - I let it sit in the paper bag for a couple hours, after which it was perfect since the bag soaked up all the extra oil/butter.“
“Arrived later in the day and they were open and still had a great selection of donuts that were fresh and delicious. The options were unique while still having traditional favorites. Personally the banana split donut was a little on the sweet side for me but I know many people enjoy that. The maple bacon, cream cheese, and key lime donuts were amazing. Look forward to returning and trying some other flavors as well.“
“We were visiting the island and we googled this bakery place. It sent our expectations. They have the most fresh sandwiches, soups and donuts. The owner was super friendly and all of her staff and gave us recommendations on where to go on the island of best lobster roll. They also had the best coffee that did not elevate your heart beat.. will be coming again soon.“
“The chai was okay, but the pastries we got were so good. The cheesecake has a much thicker crust which I prefer and the flavors tasted like a crisp fall day. We also got the chocolate croissant and a blueberry muffin. All very good, and good value. Plentiful seating indoor and outdoor.“
“Food: we stopped by this quaint town of Port Gamble. Didn't even know this place existed! This is a place NOT to be missed if you are in the mood for sweets. We wanted something sweet and looked up this place. Super cute town driving in, beautiful view of the water. We ordered : the almond raspberry cake, strawberry shortcake, lemon bar, and lemon cheesecake. The almond raspberry cake was so moist, not overly sweet, fresh whipped cream, fresh raspberries, and topped with some crunchy almonds, just the right amount of sweetness! Strawberry shortcake was just like grandma made it. The strawberries were just the right sweetness, fresh whipped cream, crop lu shortcake made the right way so it socks up the strawberries goodness! Lemon bar was sweet and tart equally. The crust had the right amount of crunch and buttery goodness. Lemon cheesecake was creamy and lemony dreamy! Service was friendly and helpful. They were quick and super patient as we decided what to get. This cute old gas station like spot had a nostalgic feel. Definitely will be back for their food and more dessert!“
“I tried Bella Bella cupcakes for dessert tonight. I wanted to try three different kinds, so I ordered a classic carrot cake standard cupcake, a carrot cake cheesecake mini cupcake, and a chocolate chocolate mini cupcake. When I got home I realized that I had a classic carrot cake standard cupcake and a classic carrot cake mini cupcake. An understandable mistake, but disappointing, especially given the prices and the fact that I live pretty far away. The business has very pretty decor, and the people were really nice. I mentioned that I don't like hard sprinkles, and was told that if I call ahead of time, they can custom decorate them for me. It's worth the prices to just get a few little treats since I don't have a family and I don't want to bake a whole bunch just for myself, but they just tasted like regular cupcakes. Next time I'll have to try a more exotic flavor.“
“They have a beautiful selection of cakes in various sizes and flavors! Lots of goodies to add to them along with small gifts and cards. The staff was so helpful, informative and patient. It was FUN. And the cakes are soooooo good!!!! We will be back.“
“what a wonderful unplanned stop this afternoon. enjoyed a small portion of the drinking chocolate, it was decent. The bonbons however, were fantastic. My personal favorite was the peanut butter raspberry, yuzu was a close second, but all were great flavors! Beautiful colors, and special packaging. A great shop for a special gift!“
“No amount of stars will convey how amazing Mama's Armenian Kitchen is, nor how genuine and kind the two owners are. I hesitate posting this review, as any small change put into the universe may lessen the perfect balance struck by this cozy bakery. Not only does the food exceed any number of world class bakeries, the owners are poetic and warm reminder to be patient and kind.“
