Reviews
I deducted one star because my son didn’t like his chicken sandwich and he’s not really a picky eater.
I also got the cookie sampler box and it was a hit at the party I went to the next day. The only problem now os that I don’t live close to this place
Cheat Landing, Morgantown, WV
✨Aesthetic: 10/10
Dessert game: emotionally unstable
Okay besties, buckle up. This is the story of how my daughter’s 21st birthday dessert plan derailed faster than my New Year’s resolutions.
So the squad (me, wife, daughters) links up in Morgantown to celebrate the Big 2-1 with some Thai food and light consumerism at Ulta and Old Navy. Mood: festive. Dessert vibes: HIGH. I volunteered as tribute to grab treats while they shopped. Original plan? Apple Annie’s. I pull up, heart full, only to find it’s closed on Sundays. Like, what is this? Chick-fil-A logic? Close on Mondays, be normal.
Plan B: Almost Heaven Desserts—close by, cute, and vibey. I roll up and it’s giving modern farmhouse café-core. Cozy seats, cute decor, free WiFi, and two gender-neutral bathrooms fully stocked with diapers. Like, a shocking number of diapers. Okay then.
☕️ Atmosphere:
• Honestly, 10/10 for interior vibes.
• The barista was deep in their own world, which was fine. Felt like I was in a slow-paced Paris café, minus the croissants and plus a dessert case that stared into my soul.
The Order:
I start snapping pics of the dessert case and drop them in the family group chat. Votes come in:
• Coconut Cream Pie — the Beyoncé of the bunch. Silky, creamy, and the crust had me humming.
• Raspberry Cheesecake — elite choice by the Mrs., raspberry + chocolate = soulmate energy.
• Peanut Butter Pie — the birthday girl’s only request. And here’s where things went left.
There’s a full uncut PB pie in the case. Like, pristine. Glowing under the lights. But when I ask for two slices, the barista hits me with the, “Sorry, we don’t slice into full pies that’s the bakers job.” (I’m paraphrasing she was NOT rude, no CAP.)
I’m sorry, what? It’s dessert, not a Fabergé egg. You’d rather let the PB pie sleep in the fridge than make a 21-year-old’s birthday? Brutal.
I offer alternatives. Another coconut cream maybe? Nope. Also a full pie. Not for slicing. Vibes? Off.
Birthday girl ends up with Reese’s Cheesecake which, plot twist, tastes like neither chocolate nor PB. It was giving dry crumble-core. I chose the Cookie Butter Cheesecake which looked cute but tasted like it had dreams and no ambition. Sad.
Only the M&M cookie came through — it slapped and was promptly devoured.
Price Check:
$5.95 per dessert slice. Not bad, honestly. Big portions. Made fresh. But freshness ≠ flavor, apparently.
Final Tea:
If you’re in the Cheat Lake area and want a solid spot to sip coffee, scroll your phone, pretend you’re studying, or just vibe — this place is a yes. But if you’re out here with a craving for PB pie or birthday-level expectations? Proceed with caution.
And to the staff: maybe slice the pie next time. The emotional damage was real.
TL;DR: Come for the cookie. Stay for the aesthetic. Just don’t count on the pie.
PS – This review is written for your entertainment and this establishment is worthy of your patronage as a locally owned business. A great alternative to the soul sucking multinational Starbucks.
Update:
As I said I would, I came back. The banana nut muffin was soft, packed with just right about of nuts, and had a pretty much perfect about of sweetness to it. The cookie butter cake had my eyes roll back into my head in pleasure. The cannoli was good too; it was very sturdy and was filled more than adequately. There’s still more I would like to try, so perhaps yet another stop here is needed!
The girls working were friendly and helpful to me unlike some other reviews.
The white mocha with 2 extra shots of espresso was sufficiently sweet. The 2 shot espresso was good but it was slightly bitter.
I ordered the container of combo cookies which is a good mix of cookies for all to enjoy. I got 43 cookies so for $28 it’s a good price for the mix. The cream horns are super fresh, flaky and have a hint of almond. The wedding cookies were a little dull on the flavor but still good. Peanut butter were flavorful along with the chocolate chip cookies. Mini pecan pie cookies were pretty bland though. The waffles cookies were not a favorite of ours but a favorite of the dogs. The nutty thumbprint are really moist not sweet but good cookies.
The cherry turnover was really good.
All in all $49 for 2 extra shot white mocha, 2 shot espresso, cherry turnover and a big container of 43 cookies.
I do find it on the expensive side. However , the quality is not compromised.
However ,I am deeply disappointed with the restroom maintenance. It is decorated really well but the toilet was not maintained
Lots for sale- big menu options, lots of pies & cakes, coffee beans, bottles drinks, hats, t-shirts, etc.
Seemed like a good atmosphere to study/work or to have a coffee date.
Loved the aesthetic of the entire place✨
Coffee and the food is great if they have it in stock and if they are able to get it out to you.
I would avoid if at all possible.
