Twelve Pine

Terrific store with high-end groceries, kitchen novelties, very clean and spacious restrooms (not gender-specific). Funny selection of cocktail napkins. Array of salad and sandwich choices including a limited possibility for "create-your-own". Beautiful desserts on display and what appeared to be a fabulous homemade ice cream case, though I cannot partake of that, so I concentrated my attention elsewhere. Drink case offered several varieties of bottled drinks, both carbonated and not, as well as water. We had a lovely salad and part of a baguette, drinks and a dessert for about $30. I had a delicious coconut/ chocolate confection, while my hubby enjoyed a blondie (that sounds like a whole other topic, but I mean the light version of a brownie!!). Indoor and outdoor seating are available.

This place is terrible. Never any staff. What staff they have are rude. If you show up for a sandwich. You will either have to wait 40 minutes or they just won't have any options. Been thru this place 3 times in the last 2 weeks and have left with nothing. They may want to consider throwing in the towel soon. As it appears to be failing.

Misleading atmosphere. Everything looked nice & smelled delicious; however, the food did not meet my expectations. The “Chicken Burrito” was just chicken chunks & sour cream mixed and wrapped in what felt like Pillsbury Dough. It was very texturally confusing. I also ordered the chai latte. It was ok, but I wish it had some more spices. That said, the staff was amicable & I could tell they were working hard due to the shortage in staff. All in all, not a bad place for a pit-stop & a wee snack plus, they had a lovely trinkets selection.

Twelve Pines is a yearly haunt of ours. Great, healthy, handmade food. Specialty items one cannot find anywhere else. The staff are pleasant and helpful. Stop in and take some time looking about and exploring the food. The only bad thing is on my part, I am off of sugar and carbs, so no gelato or cookies for me!
