Reviews
I’ve tried so many things here but the butterfinger cheesecake, the triple chocolate cupcake, and the handmade oatmeal cream pie and chocolate chip sandwiches are insanely good. Way more food and better than you’ll get at like crumbl or something for the same price point. Super cute atmosphere and great location along a little shopping street. Everyone who works here is super kind. They also have Orange-aide, it’s so refreshing. As well as dirty sodas and floats. 12/10 I love this place. If you are local or passing through seriously stop in!
Ok so here are the basic details –
Breakfast: get the cinnamon bun, or the fresh biscuits & gravy. Seriously southern home baking at its best. They’ve also got croissant breakfast sandwiches and all sorts of flavors of cinnamon rolls that they create. Great for a fast breakfast that’s not from a drive thru.
Drinks: dirty sodas that change seasonally, and fresh squeezed lemonade & orangeade which I’ll be real honest can turn around the worst day FAST. I’ve had some of the milkshakes and floats which are all good too, it’s all made to order. BUT they’ve got an option to turn a cupcake into a milkshake and it’s freaking fantastic.
Sweets: there are so many options it’s hard to pick a few favorites, but I usually go for the cheesecake, cookies, or cannoli. It’s all baked fresh where you can see them working and doing it all from scratch, and so it always smells incredible when you walk in. I bake a lot at home and so I’m super picky when I buy baked goods anywhere, and this place gets it right every single time. Lots of fun flavors for cupcakes and I love that there are new options every week. She’s done a few custom orders for me and is so easy to work with, we were absolutely thrilled with each one.
Breads & savory stuff: yeast rolls, sourdough loaves, or even homemade bagel bites and goldfish. It’s all great, you really can’t go wrong with any of it. And the garlic cheese knots with pizza sauce?! Oh my gosh… perfection.
Events: they offer kids events with games and activities (our favorite yet was the Polar Express) and cookie decorating classes for adults! I’ve seen a couple charity events too but haven’t been able to go to one of those yet.
Overall, this is EXACTLY the kind of small business Stanley needs, and one I’m so excited is close to us here in Mount Holly!
We allowed them to thaw before trying them, but once they were ready, the cupcakes were extremely dry, and the flavor was not enjoyable. Overall, this was a frustrating experience, especially given the occasion and the price point.
Secondly, the establishment did not appear very clean. They operate with an “open kitchen” concept, which I personally found unprofessional, as the area looked messy and unsanitary.
Honestly just wouldn’t recommend. I could have made better at home and saved the $15 I spent on 3 cupcakes.
