Sweet Reserve Bakery & Cafe is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere and inviting aroma of fresh-baked pastries make you feel right at home. The staff is always warm and welcoming, happy to recommend their favorites.

Their pastries and desserts are top-notch—flaky, buttery, and packed with flavor.

The balance of sweetness in their treats is just right—not too overpowering but still indulgent.

Awesome! A group of 7 of us had coffee here this morning. We had several different Chai's, coffees and breads. All delicious. Plenty of seating indoors. Beautiful artwork. It was our first time visiting and we loved it.

This is a cute and cozy spot. Be sure to try the Kashmiri Chai! I wanted to try the Chicken Waldorf croissant, but unfortunately, it was unavailable. The desserts also looked really enticing. I was expecting the bread to have more cheese and spinach, but the amounts of those ingredients were minimal. Overall, the service was great, and I will definitely go back to try the other tea and latte options.

I really liked this place at first, but my recent visits have been mediocre at best. I ordered matcha in the 24 oz size, and I noticed immediately that it was missing quite a bit of liquid. I had just put the straw in and I did not drink it before I had taken this photo. I took the photo probably around a minute after I got the drink too, so I don't think it was the foam dissolving or anything. When advertising a larger size, I believe there should be more drink in the cup. To me, it looks like the staff accidentally made a 16 oz and just put it in the 24 oz cup or something 🙁

Very cute cafe. I had the pomegranate hibiscus lemonade which was flavorful and refreshing without being overly sweet and the chicken Tikka bread which was delicious. I ended up getting their pistachio latte (which I think was a special) and a chocolate torte to go. Both were great (I finished the torte before I remembered to take a picture)

It was my first time visiting Sweet Reserve Bakery after hearing such great things about it, and it was absolutely perfect! The atmosphere walking into the bakery was warm and welcoming. I got the pistachio tiramasu cake, passion fruit cheesecake, and the lavendar cardamom latte. The cakes were so flavorful and had the perfect amount of sweetness to them, and they were baked to perfection. The latte was creamy and full of aroma. The food and drinks were both 5/5, and I will definitely come back again to enjoy the other items on their menu!

Sweet Reserve Bakery is exactly what it’s named. It’s tucked away in the same center as Bonefish Grill.
They have a very nice barista coffee bar where they make really good lattes, cappuccino’s and espresso drinks. They have a nice place to sit and enjoy your coffee and sweets too.

The deserts that we tried were all excellent!
The XL sugar cookie was the perfect amount of sweet, was nicely dense and soft in the middle.

The key lime tart was made with fresh limes and a light meringue on top.
The mini pecan pie was loaded with nuts and had a simple biscuit like crust.
The brown bomb (I call it) was a beautiful mousse enveloped by a decadent thick ganache’ coating.

The pistachio tiramisu was pretty good but I just returned from Italy and of course no tiramisu is going to come close to this! But they did a nice job and made it authentic with pistachios and I liked the rose petal garnish they put on the top. The individual cup style was perfectly packaged.

They offer breakfast items and have cakes you can order or choose a ready made that can be personalized. They also have a variety of macaroons. All in all the prices for the items I felt were good as they are using all top quality ingredients. Everything tasted Devine!
Very nice packaging and the sweets are very impressive too if you’re bringing to a get together. I definitely will be back to try other treats from them. Very nice to have them in the neighborhood too since Deerfield’s closed.

The service is what brings this place to a two star. Two younger people were on their phones as a result, they got the order wrong. There were tables that needed to be cleaned, which weren't bc the two workers had a social hour. The flat bread was bland and boring. The teas was good.

The black forest dessert was solid. I think it has potential. That said, hiring friendly faces would help. There was a stagnate energy when we walked in the store. Some of the reviews I've read are mostly from friends and family of the place. Real potential and real poor execution. Why does the waitstaff walk past and not clear tables? Need better workers. Not a place I'll return.
