Ask for your blueberry muffin to be toasted and buttered and prepare to have your mind blown. I've consumed my fair share of blueberry muffins, perhaps an inordinate and unhealthy amount, and this was by far the best muffin period I've ever had. There were a number of other things I wanted to try in the pastry display, as well as a wide variety of sandwiches (including a beef tenderloin and a pork), but admittedly, after splitting a muffin, I was kind of tapped out. Weak. The bakery is located right by the beach so perfect for grabbing a sandwich and taking it to go. We had to wait a bit to get our muffin but to be expected for late weekend mornings. Bring cash to avoid a surcharge for CC transactions. There's a parking lot behind the bakery but just a warning that there are signs plastered everywhere that you should only park there if you're a customer and it's NOT for general beach parking. No idea if they tow but I'd err on the side of caution. read more

Wow! True chef/baker. He makes the bread! The pastries, just a few, are perfection, just like a Paris cafe. Creative and delicious breakfast and kunch menu. True artisan, chefs kiss! read more

This could have been a nice experience but after our first visit today we will never set foot in here again though we live just a couple of miles away. My husband and I and two relatives met for breakfast here this morning. When we arrived this small place was busy and there was only one seating area available for the 4 of us. It happened to be near to the music speakers which isn't ever a great option but although the music was a bit loud it was otherwise "soft rock". Since we had no other seating choice, we had to take those seats. Two of us ordered coffee (okay) and blueberry muffins (okay.) My husband ordered a coffee (okay) and a pastry. The 4th person ordered a cold brew coffee and a breakfast sandwich. Upon breaking into his pastry (I forget exactly what it was) my husband found a long dark hair that was baked into it. Yuck. He went back to the counter to return it. My husband said the young woman (long dark hair) behind the counter was nonplussed, did not apologize, was not at all contrite, showed none of the kindness an establishment worker should show when confronted with a situation like this. Then, somewhat begrudgingly my husband said, she gave him a fresh pastry. Thank God the disgusting hair was literally baked into the pastry or she might have blamed one of us for placing it there. Her attitude with my husband made him think she suspected "foul play" which is why he thought to point out that half the hair was hanging out of the pastry and the rest of it was baked in. (Sorry, this is disgusting I know) That was bad customer service attitude #1. As we continued to eat and chat, the once mellow music coming out of the nearby speakers turned into a grating hard rock song. Awful. We couldn't hear ourselves talk. Bad customer service attitude #2 was about to happen and the last straw. Nicely, one of us asked the same gal at the counter if she could turn the music down. The young woman at the counter said: "I'll see if I can." Really!?!?!? She disappeared into the back and almost immediately out stormed a man with an apron on who began by scolding us!!! He said: "You wouldn't be bothered by the music if you weren't sitting where you are near the speakers." Wow!!! Although dumbfounded by his unfriendly attitude and overt aggression, one of us explained to him that we were sitting where we were as it was the only option when we arrived. Without missing a beat he "mansplained" that he would NOT turn the music down as it was for ALL the patrons to enjoy. The irony of this is that the initial crowds had dispersed at this point and besides the 4 of us, there were now only two older gentlemen in the place who I am going to hazard a wild guess were likely not enjoying the particular music that was playing then either. Instead, we simply opted to pick up our food, coffee cups, jackets, two handbags and we switched tables. It was a hassle to do so quite frankly. We were offered no assistance as we struggled with our food, cups and belongings. If it had been just my husband and me we would have left everything on the table, picked up our stuff and walked out the door. Nothing was that great that I would have minded walking away from it all. Super bad vibes here! I have never once been in an establishment where on the very, very rare occasion I have asked to have music turned down that it wasn't turned down. We weren't going to be there for very long; they could blast their hard rock again once we left. This is a food establishment not a disco nor a music venue. I believe the owners must hope that people will sit, enjoy some food and coffee and a chat or maybe if one is solo, read a book. Nope! Apparently you must enjoy the music too no matter how grating or how loud or what the staff mandates that you must listen to. On another note if you still decide to come to this miserable place, be warned that they will charge you 3.99% (please...call it 4%) more to use a credit card. There are so many other places to go on the south shore for breakfast where peace and pleasantness reign supreme. This is a hard pass imo. Pity all this because the two relatives we were with had previously enjoyed this place which is why the four of us were there to begin with. But now the owner has lost 4 local customers and anyone else I can convince in my personal orbit to go elsewhere. Rude customer service is not a forgivable offense in my book. Even if the end result was not to turn the music down, the reaction to our request could have been done in a much kinder manner. "Can I help you move to another table?" is a thought. Owner, if that's who you were in the green apron with no beard nor hair net: You clearly don't deserve nor do you apparently need, (based on your attitude "sir"), our money or our patronage. I'll wait for an angry owner response to this review. I'll take an educated guess based on his reaction to us that impulse control may not be his strong suit. Yawn. read more

I think this is a family owned place, super cozy and no frills. Sandwiches were filling and come with chips and a tiny salad. I appreciated having that crunch plus some greens! I got the crab cake sandwich. Nothing to write home about but was a good portion and fresh with the veggies and warm bread. Note credit cards take a 3% surcharge. read more

Breakfast sandwiches were delicious. Popped in here on Mother's Day and it was busy but still had room to dine in. Loved sitting by the window and seeing the water! Quaint but delicious read more

Breadbasket Bakery and cafe - Veggie Scramble with Cheese and Meat Sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - Hull, Massachusetts

I was in the area for a wedding and this is a must try place! Definitely a local gem. The iced coffee is VERY good - not acidic at all, and perfect with a little half & half. I got the small, but I wish I got the large. We got the bacon egg & cheese and the veggie scramble with goat cheese and tomato, with the hash brown. I would recommend all of it! The bread was AMAZING. Just the smell from the food was sooo good. Must visit if you're in the area! They are no longer cash only and take credit card. Didn't seem like they had AC inside, so it was just very hot/humid in the summer. read more

Breadbasket Bakery and cafe - Salmon toast, grilled blueberry muffin, iced tea and iced coffee - Bakeries Near Me - Hull, Massachusetts

The best bakery in Hull/Nantasket. The cranberry scone is the best. And the turkey breakfast was yummy. Please make more cranberry scones.

This place was very nice - good food cute atmosphere. The counter was staffed by a couple of teens that look like they could been brother and sister. Her attitude was pretty unwelcoming, will chalk it up to teen angst but there was no hint of a welcoming smile, no expression at all - just stood there like she did not want to be there. Kinda took the edge off what could have been a great lunch. read more

Everything is amazing! Wonderful atmosphere, comfy cushions, seating, excellent playlist, pleasant staff and the bakery goods... undescribably decadent! Coffee is rich and smooth..a must visit if anywhere in the area...even worthy of a destination bakery/ cafe drive.. read more

The best avocado toast I've had in any state! Fresh homemade avacado smash, two perfectly jammy eggs, thick crispy bacon on fresh baked toasted wheat bread. Definitely for 2 unless you have a big appetite which is ok too! Their pastries are also delicious. Best coffee in Hull. Michael, the owner is very kind and customer focused. It's an adorable little shop that gets very crowded quickly probably because the food is so amazing! read more

Breadbasket Bakery and cafe - Avacado toast - enough for 2! - Bakeries Near Me - Hull, Massachusetts

Best thick sliced fresh Turkey sandwich and the best overall sandwich I've had and I've been around the world. The bread is right out of oven and has a crunch not from toasting but from its origin straight to your mouth. Don't worry if the waitstaff is not friendly. Think of them as a finely tuned machine of savant cooks, bakers and purveyors of truly artisan goods. I will go back whenever we are back in Hull visiting our daughter. Thank you for showing me this level of excellence in baked goods and especially sandwiches is possible. DIVINE Go! read more

Great jazzy music and old school bakery vibe with amazing array of fresh daily pastries for the perfect start to your day at the beach. They also have a small selection of coffee (drip). Lunch choices are on the wall and we used pre ordering for an event with wide selection of sandwiches and salads. They were all amazing, period. Staff is efficient and pleasant to deal with, putting a smile on your face to start your day! read more

Recently met a friend there for coffee and pastry, and to chat. There was a speaker that I thought was too loud for the small space, and additionally played annoying music, (rap for example). I asked if they would lower the volume and was told that they would not, that the music was for everyone to listen to. It was the answer I would have expected in Ikea or a big box store, citing it was controlled by, "corporate." I used my noise canceling earbuds to have a conversation. It got busier and noisier after that. Needless to say I couldn't wait to leave. Will never go back there again. Sorry to leave such a scathing review. They might want to think about being more customer friendly. I must wonder if the speaker volume had been lowered or turned off would anyone other than the workers would have cared??? read more

Amazing baked goods and coffee. We ate breakfast both days we were at Nantasket Beach. We had a variety pastries including muffins, croissants and even a cookie!

File this under: "Things That Make You Go, 'Huh??!!'" I have been there earlier this summer and returned to get my favorite Raspberry/Lemon Croissant. I arrived to see several parties before me waiting for their orders. When I stepped up to order, I was told by the two young men at the counter that they weren't accepting orders at that time. (Huh??) I told them I just wanted a croissant and pointed to the item sitting there in the case. They said they couldn't take orders at that time and glanced over to the man behind the grill. I asked what the issue was and they said the decision "was above their pay grade." I looked over at the man at the grill, who I'd seen before and I presume is the owner, and he glanced up and quickly looked down. I asked the guys when they would be serving again and they thought I should come back in about 10 minutes. (Again, huh??) They could have explained what the issue was and apologized, but there was none of that. I did not return and went instead, to Weinberg's Bakery. This was a really puzzling and frustrating experience. I guess they don't need the business even in this challenging economic environment. read more

This place is overpriced with poor service and gross food. The bacon was undercooked, the eggs were greasy and the servers could not be bothered to bring us a piece of lettuce. The tables were filthy. I almost always leave positive reviews, but I suggest avoiding this poorly managed and overpriced establishment. read more

My husband and I went to this place during our honeymoon when we were staying in Hull. Breakfast was delicious and prices were really reasonable. We saw a lot of people come in and buy bread too. Next time we're in the area I'll definitely stop by. read more

Everything about this bakery/café is awesome. I was visiting from California and stumbled upon this place. I ordered the Mediterranean avocado toast, a blueberry muffin and a vanilla coffee. Everything was absolutely delicious. I can't wait to return. Definitely check this place out if you're ever in, the area. If you're not in the area, but close by, it's definitely worth the trip. read more

This place is truly a gem of the south shore. Move over every other breakfast place because this one has my heart. And my heart is in my belly. Holy smokes this place is unreal. They also have an amazing lunch menu selection--I cannot say enough good things. So much character. So much love packed into this food. Great service friendly owner and staff. They also allow dogs - no brainer. Best place on south shore. So cute inside. Comfy and cozy. And their baked goods are culinary masterpieces. Order literally any of them and you will be satisfied. read more

I went here twice today! Conveniently located right across from nantasket beach this is a great place to grab a coffee or lunch. I had an iced coffee this morning and a curry chicken salad for lunch. Very friendly service. The focaccia the chicken salad was served on was to die for. Only cons- no ac (not an issue if you're picking up) and a little slow on the sandwich service. It looked like they had gorgeous homemade baked goods for sale as well as breakfast sandwiches, salads, etc. would recommend if you're looking for a quick meal near the beach! read more

Really a cut above the rest! Best bakery around. It shows in the nostalgic atmosphere and crafted baked goods. Great prices as well!

Here's a Hull gem that doesn't get enough attention in my opinion. Mike, the proprietor is a bit of a renaissance man. While bread is being made and sandwiches prepared, the sweet sounds of reggae and delta blues waif from the corner speaker. The vibe is cool and artsy with graphics from the 1920's soup kitchen bread lines filling the walls. The sandwiches are of artisan quality, while the muffins and brownies are right out of the oven. Could you ask for more? Check it out for lunch. The business hours are a tad murky. Which lends a bit of mystery to the place. But the offerings are not a mystery, just doggone good! read more

Everything is fresh here, prices are good and great selection of lunch. Best of all, it is across from the Beach Resort.

Stopped here for breakfast. Avocado toast, coffee and a kouign-amann. Breakfast was good. You should check it out. Service was friendly and quick. read more

Food: 3/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Service: After going into the restaurant, we ordered and my wife said I should go wait in the car with our puppy. After my wife came back to the car with our order she told me the server asked if I was abusing her, my wife. Are you kidding me?! How a company can employ someone that makes comments like these is unforgivable! My wife was in an abusive relationship in the past and that comment brought up terrible experiences for her. All this for a mediocre breakfast sandwich. This place sucks, it really sucks. read more
