Apple Pie Bakery Café — Restaurant in Town of Hyde Park

We got there around 10am, and even though the Café was open, the dining area was still closed. The dining section don’t open until 11am. But, you can still get their baked goods and sweets from there, just have to find a place to sit to eat them.

They had muffins, scones, croissants, cookies, etc., etc… And of course, desserts! Very fun, colorful, elegant and all looked really good!

We got a few drinks and desserts, went outside by the beautiful fountain with several benches. We got hot Café Latte and an Earl Grey Tea, which came in a HUGE paper cups.

For food, it somehow ended up being all desserts…LOL. Blueberry Cobbler Cheesecake, Raspberry Grasshopper, and Milk and Cookies. They were all beautifully made and tasty.

Cheesecake was very elegant and tasty, high quality dessert. Grasshopper was a-ok, I wanted more of the mint and Crème de cacao flavor. Milk and Cookies reminded me of Cookie Monster for sure. It had brilliant blue color, which transferred onto your finger and anywhere and everywhere it touched. It needed a really good, thorough, long wash time with soap to get most of it off…

The student staffs at the Café were not very friendly…but rather cold. Maybe they are not morning people??? Anyways, I am glad I got to try out their beautiful and...

I only had time to visit this restaurant on CIA's campus, but the sensational food here makes me want to return to sample other restaurants. Simply put...it was a fantastic meal. Due to COVID restrictions, the restaurant was offering a limited menu. One of the student workers noticed that we were having difficulty making a entrée choice and quickly gave us the lowdown on what was best on the menu, including the chicken pot pie and the mac and cheese. Both of those were delicious! I'm not a fan of chicken pot pie, but this was extraordinary. The crust was light and flaky and the pie's contents were cooked to perfection. The mac and cheese was excellent as well. After tasting those two entrees, I was a little sad that I didn't choose either of those and opted for the turkey sandwich. The sandwich was very good but due to the restrictions, it had become a little too cold in the refrigerator which made the bread a little chewy. I don't place any blame on the students or the restaurant however. It was a terrific experience and I enjoyed a pleasant lunch which is a little harder for me to accomplish nowadays. Almost forgot - do yourself a favor and save room for the tasty baked goods the students have prepared - you won't be disappointed. Will...

First time coming here I have to say it was good. The pastry/dessert is amazing... Hubby and I split the Bourbon Bundt cake....so good couldn't even get a pic of it .It wasn't overly sweet and had this cream cheese frosting dollop...so good. My husband had a reuben which was good, nothing extraordinary, we had truffle fries which were awesome, had the right pinch of salt, but I ordered a crab cake which I was very disappointed. It was one cake which was big by itself, it was so bready and hard on the outside it was just odd.... I thought for this to be a culinary place it would be more Maryland crab cake like, but it was not. If your really into crab cakes I would defintely skip it. I am not sure if it was just off since we got them right before closing. The Mac and cheese was something we tried also , it's not a southern mac and cheese but it's a very nice combination of cheeses that are used, it's a gourmet mac and cheese, only suggestion is that it could be more seasoned. If in the area I would come back, or if you pass through it's cute experience and spot to come too. Focus more so on bakery items. The staff...
