“What a treasure! The food is tremendously fresh and tasty. We look forward to using the event space in the back of the restaurant soon for an executive board meeting. The staff are super friendly and I’m grateful to be able to have lunch quickly made while on my break, while having time to enjoy it as well!“

“Europa Crust has the best fresh bread in Richmond and is on par with the best European bakeries. The amazing aroma from this shop gave me a “Ratatouille” moment reminding me of going to panaderías with my grandmother—it’s heavenly. I highly recommend the Finnish sweet bread!“

“Sugar & Salt RVA made my “cancer free” celebration cake. It was absolutely beautifully decorated. The cake was dark chocolate with cookies and cream between the layers and buttercream frosting. So moist, so rich, so creamy, so perfect! Thank you! Would recommend their cakes for all special occasions!“

“First let me say that I lived in Europe for two years and have had quite a few amazing croissants...but nothing like this place. The chocolate almond croissant from Sub Rosa is the best one I've ever had..period. Also, the ham and cheese croissant and the tart was incredible. We heard about how fast they sell out so we ordered a few days ahead of our trip. I'd recommend doing the same if you want to guarantee you'll get what you want. Seriously, if you find yourself down here, plan to make a stop, you will not be disappointed.“

“Ellyn makes incredible desserts. As beautiful as they are delicious! We ordered a small cake and dozens of cupcakes and pies for our wedding day. The order process was easy, choosing from tons of reasonably priced options, many super unique flavors and options (and of course the basics, too!). Ellyn delivered on time and all our guests loved everything! Highly recommend booking Fat Rabbit for your wedding! (Photos: Melissa Desjardins)“

“This place is such a good takeout pie place. I was never really a pie person until I came here. Their savory and sweet pies are a hit every time. The crust is so flavorful and flaky. I miss their dine in area but I understand why it's only takeout now. The service is always so quick but make sure to show up early before they sell out. They are also only open Wednesday-Sunday. Everyone that works there is very nice and welcoming.“

“The croughnuts were beyond amazing! We tried the glazed and the cinnamon sugar and we would highly recommend both! Justin was so gracious of his time when we went to pick up our order (with a food network watching, #1 fan daughter with us)! We can’t wait to try more of his creations!“

“When you walk in, you are greeting by the bakers and the wonderful aroma. I love the fact that they let you know what's coming for the following week. These cookies are sooo savory and 1 can fill you up(but how can you not resist more). Great job!“

“SO many great flavors to choose from; roasted strawberry will spoil you on regular strawberry ice cream forever! The cannoli ice cream(with mini cannoli shell) was excellent. My daughter always gets a sweet little macaron on top of whatever she chooses. It’s such a great spot to grab a great scoop (or two!) of ice cream.“

“Ok listen. Showing up at 10pm for a late night snack and having the owner say "The first cake is always on me. You're gonna love it and I know you'll be back" is an immediate win.It's an unassuming home shop with a little outdoor seating and a lot of love. We got our first (free) cheesecakes - small ones that you could easily order by the dozen - and she gave us a sample of her banana pudding. We are already hooked.Go there. Get something yummy.“

“I'm visiting RVA and have been to Ironclad 2 days in a row now! Friendly & hospitable staff. Iced coffee is pretty good, 7/10 but not mind blowing. To be nit-picky about one thing, the iced cups are cheap plastic and liquid kept leaking out the sides of the lid. But the food here is really the star imo. Yesterday I devoured a delicious bacon egg & cheese biscuit, and today i got the Pain au chocolat - one of the best pastries I've ever had. Atmosphere is cool too. This will be a frequent stop for me whenever I'm in town.“

“Just got back from this place and couldn’t wait to leave a review! Amazing decor, ambiance and most importantly desserts! I’m so glad both, my husband’s (lemon lava) and my favorite (silk pie) were available the same week of our anniversary. Just the perfect amount of “sweet”, not too much not too little. Can’t wait to try more stuff“
“We had a cake and dessert table made for our wedding. Couldn't have been more satisfied. Easy to work with, super professional, clearly passionate about their flavors. The amount of ideas we were given for the dessert table was incredible. Tough to choose. We looked at 3 other bakeries and picking Sweet Fix was the easiest decision we made.“

“My husband and I discovered Williams Bakery last holiday season, when I was seeking a gingerbread cookie fix, and my husband came home with these colorful and delicious cookies! Thinking these delightful gingerbread treats were only available during the holiday season, we mistakenly didn’t visit Williams Bakery again until a couple of weeks ago. Here’s the great news: they actually have these wonderful gingerbread cookies year-round, we found out on our most recent visit!So what’s so special about these gingerbread cookies? Loaded with strong ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and molasses flavors, this cookie features crispy edges with a tender center that melts in your mouth. An exciting treat, each bite builds a little from the spice blend, giving your body and soul that all-over warmth that only wintertime spices can. Decorated with a soft, velvety buttercream icing that acts as a sweet foil to the spiciness of the gingerbread, these ginger men and women were donned with candy-coated chocolates as well. Each burst of chocolate flavor combined with the spicy profile of the cookie really made for an interesting and well-balanced experience. As you may imagine, we have decided that Williams Bakery is *the* place to find authentic and delicious gingerbread cookies!Now, it was bright and early in the morning when we arrived at Williams Bakery to relive the past holiday’s memories, and it was chock full of patrons, as well as baked goods! I took myself and my camera on a short tour, as it was crowded (rightfully so!) and therefore difficult to snap lots of photos. Each and every shelf, nook, and table was occupied by the most delightful treats, ranging from classic oatmeal raisin cookies, decadent oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies, colorful M&Ms cookies, their very own Spice Cookies, light and airy angel food cakes, luxurious breads stuffed with nuts and fresh orange, as well as ready-to-heat and serve cream cheese frosting smothered cinnamon rolls. Why, there was even a gingerbread cookie kit for you to decorate your own gingerbread cookies with your loved ones!In addition to the walls and tables piled high with these culinary delights, there was an ample counter stuffed with individual donuts of all sorts, cookies, and other exquisite pastries to be purchased a la carte or by the dozen. Knowing that we were saving our gingerbread cookies for later in the day, we knew we had the perfect reason to order some fresh baked donuts to start our holiday morning, and promptly requested both a lemon filled donut and a cream filled donut.As soon as we got home, we neatly divided each donut so that we could share our breakfast, and each experience the flavors and textures we were so excited about! These donuts were both baked so nicely, with a delicately crisp but tender outside, with a light, fluffy but still doughy inside. What made these donuts sing was their balanced composition, as each was filled with just the right amount of creamy filling, ensuring that each bite had the proper ratio of filling to donut. As for the lemon filling, it gave the perfect amount of “pucker;” it was a well-balanced, sweet and sour flavor with a rich and cheerful attitude. A smooth, ambrosial cream filled the second donut, with its farm fresh ingredients and balanced textures.Hopefully, you can see how joyous our trips to Williams Bakery have been, and you know we’ll be back time and time again. If this location of Williams Bakery is farther from you, don’t worry, there are two more locations in the Richmond area that should suit you!Parking: People are in and out quickly (such fast service!), so there is parking available!“
“Amazing customer service! They were happy for me to share a family cookie recipe as I placed my order. I would have been happy with the cookie batch coming out as I've been used to over the years from family members. However I soon realized I'm dealing with a professional baker here and the cookies came out better than I ever remember them being. The taste and texture were on a higher level. I love the creative flavors and offerings this small family business provides to their cakes, cookies, and more. I'm a very happy customer and can't wait to stop in again!“

“Lovely little bakery on a cute street. Stopped by on a Saturday morning to get the best selection and they had so many tasty-looking items. It was hard to choose! I selected the chocolate-almond croissant, the canele, and the supreme of the day (coffee-chocolate). We moved to Richmond from Charlottesville and I am a big fan of Marie Bette and the late, great Bowerbird Bakeshop. Idle Hands is definitely on the level with these. The supreme is a unique offering, and I'm so glad I was able to try it in one of my favorite flavors - coffee. It was huge and had tons of coffee pastry creme - so good. The canele was good, although I prefer the mini ones from Marie Bette - the smaller size makes a better ratio between the caramely outside and the soft inside. The chocolate-almond croissant was the star of the show. So generously filled with almond cream that it weighed nearly 12 ounces! Light and delicious pastry. A perfect treat!“
“Our go-to for desserts, and they just happen to be vegan! Flavorful, beautifully prepared, unique items you can't find elsewhere. The savory options are amazing too, they are magicians with seitan. Don't miss their seasonal offerings for holidays! Most recently we had a delicious box of items for high tea from their Mothers' Day menu and everything was perfect and fresh. We are really lucky to have Sunflower Gardenz in our city, a hidden gem for sure“

“I’m so happy to have Sefton a block away from my office! Aways incredible service, consistently amazing coffee, and fantastic pastries. The random surprises, whether a flower, penguin, or fortune cookie with the coffee, are always an added treat.“
“Excellent products, the chicken drumstick with catupiry is one of the best I've found in the United States to date. The service was wonderful, it reminded me of how attentive and nice Brazilians are after so many years abroad. I highly recommend it!“
“We are elated to discover this delightful bakery! We enjoyed an array of delicious treats in a warm and inviting cafe. The muffins and brownies were our favorite, but we stocked up. It's rare for us to find a place that can meet our family's dietary restrictions (and deliciously!). The staff was helpful and friendly. We will be regulars! Thanks AnnaB's!“

“WPA knocked our birthday cake out of the park. We had to accommodate dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free and gluten-free dietary restrictions and not only was the cake INCREDIBLE, but the service was so good. I emailed my inquiry and got a response quickly. I had a change the week of my order and it was accommodated with a smile. Our birthday girl, who had the dietary restrictions, could not believe that she could really eat the cake. We had one guest day he thought the WPA cake was better than the other one we had that was the same flavor but had gluten, dairy, egg and soy.WPA will now be our go-to bakery. Thank you!I can’t thank WPA Bakery enough for making our birthday cake surprise a huge hit. Thank you!!!!“
