What Reviews Say
126 reviews analyzedBiscuits & Bath Upper East Side receives overwhelmingly positive reviews (approximately 75% are 5-star), with particular praise for staff genuine care, excellent communication via text/photos, and dogs clearly enjoying the facility. However, serious red flags exist including a dog death after grooming, multiple dog attack incidents, and reports of unsanitary conditions. Pricing concerns are common (described as expensive but worth it), and specific staff members (Vanessa, Nicole) have received criticism for rudeness. The owner responds professionally to nearly all reviews within 1 day, though occasionally appears defensive in contentious situations. Repeat customers are common, with many using the facility for years.
