Having cake on your birthday is tradition, but the people of Columbia have deemed Kaminsky’s the best place to do that!

This dimly lit cafe is the perfect place to have an intimate gathering with friends and enjoy fresh, homemade desserts. Their notorious cake case holds a mouthwatering selection of cakes, cookies, pies and cobblers that change daily. There is no way to go wrong no matter what you choose!

If you’re looking to celebrate your 21st birthday in a more low-key way, Kaminsky’s offers alcoholic options as well. The “Hot Spirited Drinks” menu section includes many options such as Irish coffee (Irish whiskey and turbinado sugar), Snow Cap (cappuccino and Irish cream liquor), Kioki Kaminsky (coffee, chocolate and Kahlua, brandy) and many more.

Treat yourself right this birthday season and celebrate at Kaminsky’s with a delicious dessert!
