Although the bakery items here are not bad, this is not an establishment I will be returning too. The experience was one of unwelcome to people of color. My family and I came in and were not greeted, but the customers that were white were greeted with a smile. I tried to push past this and continued to look over what I wanted. The staff were not pleasant, nor were they helpful. Considering this was my first and only visit, it would’ve been nice if one of the staff had asked if we needed assistance finding anything or even offering a recommendation on what to buy. When I did decide what I wanted to purchase, the cashier didn’t seem very interested in speaking to me or taking my transaction. Once I purchased my order, I immediately left. It’s very unfortunate that someone would willingly go out of their way to make an environment uncomfortable just because of difference in skin color. I hope this can be addressed and there will be a change for future POC customers who would like to visit this...
Read moreWhen my sister and I saw this place from a social media, we thought food would be expensive since the place is in middle class neighborhood in all directions.
To our surprise, pastries, coffee, and ice cream are very reasonably priced and delicious. They doesn't taste like cheap and yet still cost cheap. We can see why it's popular place.
We only came to this place because we live in Meriden and it's only drive 13 minutes away. My favorite pastry is cannoli. I ate cannoli at various places. Most of them taste like sugary and cheap. But this place's cannoli is to die for.
They are also friendly. My sister and I am deaf. They are more than happy to accommodate us by writing paper.
One or two more thing, the place is quite busy during morning and evening. Things should be calmer afternoon but you would have missed out on limited-time seasonal food. My sister is addicted to all kind of pumpkin food and drinks. She begged me to drive her to this place on...
Read moreI went to Lewis Farms today. I was looking for a blueberry bar with the confectionary sugar on top. I thought I saw one. The young woman said it was cherry. I swore it was blueberry. She took it out without me asking. She was right. I decided to take it anyway. I asked for some more sugar which she obliged without hesitation. I purchased a lemon bar. I have had these items before. They are delicious. Many things to choose from. You won’t be in and out right away. Before I left, when I was paying another young woman employee came over to me and said a little blueberry muffin was damaged and she gave it to me. She overheard me asking for the blueberry bar. She was working right there. Great, kind customer service. It made my day, as I was not having a good day. The 2 young women are Ava and Alicia. Please share this with them. Thank you ladies.
