Afters Dessert Bar
Phone: (919) 260-5456
Fear not, dessert lovers, Afters Dessert Bar only took a short hiatus to move into an even bigger space at Brightleaf Square this winter. With an ever-growing, seasonally-inspired menu containing both sweet and savory treats (including gluten-free options), Afters is a great downtown stop for satisfying your sweet tooth. For morning pastries, enjoy muffins and scones, or pick up a scratch made cookie cream pie or chocolate as an afternoon treat or after a meal (get it?).

Was in the mood for some dessert on a Sunday afternoon and came across Afters Dessert Bar and I’m glad I did. It was excellent. The owner was great and his dog who’s there on the weekends was fun to play with. Sat there for 30 minutes watching a football game while drinking coffee and eating some dessert. My favorite bite was definite the salted caramel chocolates 🤤

Highly recommend the cookies, they aren’t too sweet and have good depth of flavor! I got 2 of each in the 1/2 dozen. The cookies are relatively smaller but perfect size for a sweet treat after a full dinner. The owner also has a very cute dog.

First time there and it was the very best desert we had. Very friendly service and was even greated by a wonderful puppy dog. I am putting this on our family list to come and try something different. I would highly recommend this establishment.
