I would like to come here more and try some more drinks.

The bakery is cute and cozy with big windows looking out to the Main Street of excelsior and a few different tables inside. The staff is always kind and quick even during busy periods.

I had the grapefruit and loved its bright citrus to balance the wintery outdoors. Also, The cornetto French Toast is out of this world with the "bread" component being a butter croissant prepared just as a traditional French toast and topped with fresh berries and cream. (Just thinking about it is making me drool) Delicious and missing "something": the Sicilian baked omelette pie was savory with burst of freshness from the tomatoes but lacked in flavor. I found myself wanting a little more pecorino to give it the salt it was missing. Overall, service was kind and attentive without being overbearing. The vibe is tranquil with the lush velvet accents and warm design choices.

I ended up buying a Sebastian Joe's ice cream sandwich, but they had plenty of ice cream treats and offered cones of SJ's flavors. In addition they had a nice selection of beverages and snacks. Perfect for a pre- or post-bike ride refuel! They also have a nice porch and back seating area that is enclosed or you can snack at the park across the way. The building has a small lot that allows for 30 minute parking. It also has bike racks available making it super convenient.

There has been ownership changes but the quality remains. They have great sandwiches, especially the chicken with a healthy smear of pesto on toasted slices. It's thick and priced right. Sitting outside affords a view of the busy street life of the village and Lake Minnetonka. There is a water bowl for the dog and this location in the twin cities is particularly friendly.

If you want to come here even relatively close to peak hours, I would highly recommend a reservation. My personal favorites here include the Rotisserie Chicken Sandwich and the Minute Chicken. I've gotten both items multiple times and they are consistently great. Do yourself a favor and get the Dessert Flight; the portions are more than fair for the price and the Banana Cream Pie is to die for. We recently did brunch at Hazelwood for the first time. The Monkey Bread is a generous size with a crispy outside and gooey center - exactly how you would want it to be. The Smoked Gouda Hash browns are worth getting on the side with any item that doesn't already include them; they are so creamy and have a rich cheesy flavor with a nice crispy top layer. Unfortunately, I would not recommend the Avocado Toast. The bacon bits, lettuce, and poached egg completely overwhelm the avocado, which is virtually nonexistent. It's served on a very small and boring piece of wheat toast.

The staff are so friendly and upbeat, and they always go above and beyond. Most of them are students, so be generous with tips because they absolutely make the experience better. The toppings are LOADED on, not sprinkled, and the cookie dough is especially fantastic. You'll probably need a second cup because it's overflowing, which is never a bad problem to have. The service is great whether you go through the drive-thru or inside, and it's always fast and welcoming. Adele's is one of those places you crave year round and it never disappoints.
