Clock Tower Coffee and Bakery

I don't use the term "Hidden Gem" often but I feel like this may be one!This is a perfect location to get some WFH tasks done, take a break, or meet up with friends! The vibe is amazing!The customer service was amazing and the food was fantastic!!!It's located not too far from BWI and easily accessible from several highways. Be sure to check them out!!!

We love the drinks at clock tower. The establishment uses quality coffee and the baristas are good at customizing the drinks to every patrons liking. On this visit we tried a special menu item, the cinnamon dolce latte which was deliciously sweet but not overly sweet. The iced cappuccino was very tasty as well and had the perfect chill. Many students of the school nearby come over once school lets out and hang out with their friends. We've enjoyed having clock tower as our local coffee shop. It's the best one near our home.

The bakery is quite spacious and impeccably clean. They offer ample seating options, including a large outdoor patio and a spacious indoor area. Inside, we noticed a lounge area with comfortable sofa chairs. They have 2 restrooms, but both were shut with a note closed due to vandalism.Their menu features coffee, tea, and matcha, along with a variety of bakery items and some lunch options. During our visit, we ordered a cortado and a decaf iced coffee paired with a chocolate croissant. The cortado was satisfactory, but unfortunately, the croissant didn't meet our expectations. Instead of being flaky and crispy on the outside, it resembled more of a bread texture. We ended up picking out the outer pieces to eat and discarded the center, which felt too doughy. Overall, the coffee experience was decent, but the croissant left much to be desired.

What the world needs now is love, sweet love, and more locally -owned coffee shops!I was glad to see this new (opened in Oct 2023) coffee shop open up. It has so much potential with a great location, cool digs, awesome patio, full kitchen capabilities...For me it fell a little short of great. I'm not sure if they bake fresh on site but it didn't quite smell of it. There were a handful of options (10 I'd say?) displayed that I passed in favor of an egg white and veggie breakfast sandwich. It was made fresh, for sure. But the flavor and egg texture were somewhat lacking for me (sundried tomatoes and more spinach would have really gone far...maybe some sauce too?) I was excited the sourdough bread but it wasn't toasted or grilled which somehow seemed like a missed opportunity.Cappuccino was full bodied and came out quickly. The two people working the counter were also friendly and cool.I sat there for work and noticed it was eerily quiet: they mentioned their sound system isn't working in the front area.I hope they fine tune some things as I really want to love this place!

Stopped by for lunch and ordered the Turkey sandwich, hot latte, and a couple of pastries. While the sandwich was good value for the cost, the taste was lackluster. It felt like something was missing. The latte was about the same. I ordered a bear claw and an apple turnover to go, but later discovered they had accidentally given me a cherry turnover. Despite the mixup, the pastries were the highlight of the meal. I tried a bite of the bear claw at the cafe and the woman working noticed I ripped the tab of the box and offered to put it in a new box for me, which was very nice. There is plenty of parking and outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. I would come back for the pastries but give a different sandwich a try.

I love finding new cafe's! I had a good experience here and loved how quiet it was, so I was able to get a lot of work done. I ordered the spinach feta croissant, a pina colada smoothie, and a cookies and cream cheesecake. The smoothies are new and may only be here for the summer. They also sell the cakes for half off that are a day old! I definitely took advantage of that offer.

I miss the Baltimore Coffee & Tea. Thankful we got this place that came into the neighborhood to fill that coffee void, but it's very different to say the least. It's a mix and match of coffee and 7 Eleven vibe. Limited coffee selection at that. The decor is nice with calming green and gray, but the random items spread throughout, like battery, cough drops, candy, sodas, is a bit strange. Not the friendliest staff. Overheard a couple of staff talk very bitterly and unkindly (like wishing the customer to have a flat tire) about a lady that had just existed the shop. Not sure what happened but made me feel anxious and uncomfortable.

New coffee and bakery spot near me. Finally got the chance to stop in parking was decent. The decor is very cute .... They give you numbers and bring your order to you if you decide to eat and drink in. I ordered the spinach and feta croissant and the clock tower iced cappuccino which is caramel and mocha topped with whipped cream. The staff was efficient but lacked personality. My croissant I asked to be warmed and it was very cold inside. They have on the road goodies too like little packets of pain meds and batteries and candy for the kids ... things you'd find at a corner store.... I thought that was cool.

I would have added a picture of my order but I devoured it so here we go!!I actually happened upon this location because I got lost trying to get to Dunkin Donuts. I am new to the area and just wanted to find some good coffee spots around my work area. When I entered the location I was warmly greeted. I have only been there during breakfast hours and was super stoked to see chicken sausage and turkey bacon options!I got the chicken sausage, egg, and cheese on a croissant along with "Clock Tower" latte with no whip cream. Very good. It's so good I have already been back twice in one week.They also have a cake and party display that taunts me, but I have not indulged as of yet; but I will. They also have a rewards program and it's easy to sign up!Thank you for making this transplant feel welcome and I will continue to patronize.

This place is awesome. Got off the highway because of the traffic. Had an iced black tea with sugar free vanilla syrup and an absolutely amazing caprese sandwich with grilled salmon on it. You're going to need a lot of napkins, or better yet eat in.I was here on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't crowded. The staff are friendly and helpfulSo glad I stopped in.Oh, and they have 2 gorgeous gender neutral bathrooms too.
