Rosie MJuly 2, 2013Cupcake+parfait in a to-go cup. Brilliant. Had the banana marshmallow. Yummy! Had trouble deciding. The smart guy at the counter gave me a mini of another flavor to try. Smart marketing. Will be back.
Ade O.January 13, 2013Opened a month ago. Free wifi. Decent hot chocolate. Great range of baked goods including different kinds of croissant. Friendly customer base.
rebecca sloatFebruary 25, 2013Their cake cups are incredible! Picking favorites is like splitting hairs, but the Detzel (vanilla cake w/ white choc mousse and raspberry jam) and the Banana Marshmallow were stellar.
Jess SFebruary 8, 2014Cake in a cup + other redic treats. Come here for late night coffee, snacks & cuddling (they will have champagne soon!)
Yifen JSeptember 11, 2013Lovely communal table with good lighting. Chewy breakfast bar is yummy and baked in-house along w most other pastries.
Love this place. Try the vanilla cake with white chocolate and raspberry mouse. So smooth and moist and creamy. Love it!
Lori LuoSeptember 4, 2014Looking for a slightly less guilty way to sate your sweet tooth? Try a cake cup, in carrot cake, red velvet, and chocolate flavors.
Anthony StanyerApril 27, 2013Great place to sit and chat on a Sabbath afternoon. Owners of the BKBC actually serve you, wonderful people! I will definly return here!
Jasmine TagordaFebruary 17, 2013Honey Bourbon was a tasty change aside from all the other usual cake flavors...and the candied ginger was a surprise!
Peanut butter and jelly cake cup!! Great place to sit for a minute and take a break. Coffees are to DIE for.

Chrissy webFebruary 11, 2014They pastries are phenominal and their quiches, paninis & Pot Pie Pockets are ridiculously delicious
Crystal CruzMarch 16, 2013Cake cups are moist and delicious, the tea is amazing, and the people are stellar.
MeliJune 24, 2014Overhyped. The cups of cake were cute, but as far as taste is concerned, it's too thick. The frosting is a bit too sweet. But the gentleman behind the counter was attentive, friendly and accommodating
Rachel TrobmanApril 21, 2013So quiet in here. Nice alternative to hustle and bustle but not great for catching up with friends.

D KSeptember 6, 2014I tried the ginger cake cup and it was alright. I wouldn't go out of my way to get another.
