The sweet spread.
Juliet H.

Cool concept! I'm still chasing my white rabbit on the best Raleigh desserts. Of what the hubs and I sampled-- The Little Blue Bakehouse has a great brownie (by Blue Ox), a great brown butter sugar cookie (by Sweet Nothings), and solid macarons (by Blue Macarons)! Service was friendly and the shop is clean. Love that you can try several bakeries under one roof. We tried and struck out on the cupcakes (strawberry + vegan chocolate) and the Blue Ox snickerdoodle. Unfortunately, hard passes. The "best desserts" search continues...

OMG - 2 cases of gf pastries!

Super excellent coffee and dessert. They had several gluten free selections. They were excellent. They had some unique coffee selections and the couple our group had were delicious. Little Blue Bakehouse is not in a super busy part of town. We went after watching a movie at the Alamo Drafthouse theatre. We would make it a special trip now.

Coffee

Absolutely love this spot!! So many awesome treats to choose from. I'm gluten free and love the gluten free and macaron cases! The coffee is incredible. The people, always kind, wonderful and focused on creating a welcoming community.

These skull pancakes were soo cute!

The Little Blue Bakehouse is such a cute bakery that I found on accident. I'm mad I didn't find this place sooner. I spent almost $50 here for my babies photoshoot. I love how unique this place is. Everything was a really good experience. I took small bites because I didn't want it to end, lol.. Just note that they are closed on Mondays unfortunately.

Still a favorite! Stopped in to try seasonal macarons and was not disappointed. Carrot cake and lemon poppyseed both delicious. I also got salted caramel and browned butter as they are favs. Wasn't crazy about the lavender one. Always courteous employees and clean and quiet spot. I will continue to make a trip here occasionally and maybe one day get something else but those macarons are way too good to resist!

Walking in the bakery/coffee/tea and drinks- it was bright and cheerful. The man behind counter was super friendly and helpful. I got the wine infused chocolate cupcake for my husband and the key lime macron for me. The key lime macron was good not enough key lime flavor for me it was very sweet. They have plenty of choices for coffee and tea drinks. Service was pretty quick.

Blue on case

Interesting concept. 4 different small bakers working out of one space. Sweet Nothings is one of the bakers. They are gluten-free and quite tasty for being gluten-free. I have taken photos of each case so you can see what was offered when we visited l. Plenty of indoor tables to sit at.

Dinner

Food 4 Service 4 Ambiance 4 I settled on cupcakes bc I was having a rough day and when I say they hit the spot, oh my they hit the spot. I got the assortment pack with 6 flavors the chocolates, and the lemon raspberry are my top two but honestly, they were all amazing! I can not wait to go back!

I'm obsessed with this neighborhood bakery! LBB features a huge case of fresh treats and baked goods from local vendors (Little Blue Macaron, Blue Ox Bakery, Yellow Garden Bake Shop, Gryffin Bakeshop, and Boozie Bakes), as well as a coffee drinks. There's a good amount of vegan options, too--so there really is something for everyone. Plenty of parking is available nearby, and service was quick and friendly.

Bitten Bakery
Katie T.

I've been wanting to try LBB, specifically Bitten Bakery, for ages. Despite not being far from me, I just now got around to it before hitting a movie at Alamo. It's bright, colorful and open when you go in. There were several employees working so I didn't have to wait to order. Bitten Bakery was a little low on items (which they said was due to a busy weekend, so yay for small business support). I went with a Reese Cup chocolate chip cookie. It was around $5 and delicious! I bet it would be even better warmed in the microwave or toaster oven for a few seconds. Definitely want to return to try one of their coffee drinks and more of the delicious looking desserts like carrot cake and more cookies.

Met the owner who is super nice!
Stacy P.

Amazing establishment. If you ever been to Morgan Street Food Hall and/or Transfer Co, this is on the smaller scale but super cool. Only deserts and coffee sold here. Different bakeries featured. The owners are super nice. They designed this place to allow other bakers a space to sell their products in a retail setting. Service was great! They have drinks of the month. Right now they have this watermelon lemonade which is very refreshing on a hot day! A good amount of seating inside and a few tables outside. If you are in the area or before/after movies at the Alamo stop by. You won't be disappointed.

Outside

Amazing bakery with EVERYTHING made in house. We had the mango coconut scone, chocolate donut, and croissant. All high quality and not too sugary. Surprisingly good coffee for being a bakery. Staff was super friendly and helpful. It's a grab and go kinda place as the inside feels very sterile.

I first encountered Boulted Bakery at a morning meeting, when a colleague generously brought in a…read morebox of croissants and other baked goods. They were good enough that I decided I needed to visit the bakery myself. The shop did not disappoint. I ordered a decaf Americano and took my time looking around. For the road, I picked up a half loaf sesame pan, butter, and goat cheese--a simple combination, but one that seemed like the perfect way to appreciate the quality of the baking. What struck me most is the attention to ingredients and technique. Boulted mills its own flour, works with organic and heirloom grains, and relies heavily on natural fermentation. The breads are baked with a beautifully dark, deeply caramelized crust that delivers considerably more flavor than the pale, overly uniform loaves found at many bakeries. Something is reassuring about a bakery that doesn't try to overcomplicate things. Great flour, careful fermentation, skilled hands, and a hot oven. The results speak for themselves. I was impressed by Boulted Bakery. The quality is top shelf, and the pastries that first introduced me to the place were no fluke. This is clearly a serious bakery, and well worth a visit.

My tip is to walk over to the Platform apartments and sit in the common areas under there. The biale was a little hard, maybe because it was early afternoon. But morning bun was good. They had sold out a fair amount of the pastries by 2, but still had lots of morning buns. The light in the building is very nice. Good place to get a treat!

Walking into the cocktail bar/dessert lounge it feels trendy, dim-lit, like something that belongs in a very large city (but glad to have it in Raleigh), and 21+ as I was asked for my ID at the door. Once you walk in, definitely have your ID ready and then you will be seated. A server will then come by your table to take your order. For drinks, I ordered the Fireside Old Fashioned (Maker's 46, cayenne, chili-pepper sugar, Crude smoke-salt bitters) and my partner ordered the Chai Espresso Martini (house-made chai tea, vodka, sweetened espresso). Both drinks were excellent and well made. The old fashioned had a nice full bourbon taste and a really nice spicy flavor at the end each sip. For deserts, we ordered the s'mores sundae (torched house-made marshmallow cream, Valrhona dark chocolate brownie, vanilla ice cream, toasted graham) and the Caramel Apple Cupcake. The Caramel Apple cupcake was good but was more like a muffin vs. a cupcake and was on the dry side. The s'mores sundae was excellent and had so much chocolate flavor. Overall, would highly recommend checking out Bittersweet if you are around the Downtown Raleigh area looking for a nightcap or dessert bar.

lucettegrace is a contemporary French patisserie located on Salisbury Street in Downtown Raleigh…read more Renowned former Umstead pastry chef Daniel Benjamin opened it in 2014 and named the shop after his daughters, Lucette and Grace. The café has a seating area if you want to dine in, though I ordered to go. When you enter, the display cases showcase the day's creations of artisanal pastries and savory gourmet sandwiches. The service was incredibly friendly, and the staff member carefully packaged my order so nothing would shift. I tried five of their signature macarons--Apple Cheesecake, Maple Vanilla, Earl Grey Citrus, Root Beer, and Pomegranate -- and also got a Rice Krispies treat with chocolate, a traditional éclair, and a rich brownie. These are definitely not your ordinary desserts; they are high-quality, masterfully executed works of art, and I thoroughly enjoyed every single bite. They also offer a full selection of coffee and other premium beverages. While I lucked out with a spot near the shop, keep in mind that downtown street parking can be tight at times.

Fun fact: the owner named the Patisserie by combining his two daughter's middle names. When you walk in you'll feel like you've been transported to Brooklyn with a touch of Parisian elegance mixed with downtown industrial vibes. To order you'll walk up to the counter and place your order. Once your order is placed you'll grab a seat wherever there is an open table. For coffee I ordered the vanilla latte and my partner ordered the iced caramel latte. The vanilla had a nice balance of flavor and the ceramic cup was a nice touch. For pastries my partner ordered the cookie and the ham & cheese croissant. Both were excellent, with the cookie being more of a shortbread cookie with dark chocolate and the croissant having great flavor and plenty of ham and cheese. I ordered the Nun'Ya Biscuit which was like nothing I've ever ordered before. It was a biscuit seasoned with smoked cheddar cheese, breakfast sausage, scallions, and complete with sausage gravy inside the biscuit. You definitely need to order the Nun'Ya Biscuit if you stop by Lucettegrace. Definitely looking forward to our next time visiting Lucettegrace. Highly recommend checking out this coffee shop if you are in Downtown Raleigh.

There are several other businesses that share the small parking lot, so parking is slim. It's super cute and cozy inside with a few tables. There's also a few tables outside. I was greeted right away by the awesome staff. My daughter and I both ordered iced coconut lattes, she has a 12oz, I had a 16oz, and I ordered a slice or coffee cake to go. After my first sip, I wished there was a 24 oz. That was the best iced latte ever!!! The coffee cake was so perfect, but made me wish I had a hot latte to accompany it...I'll have to go back!!

There was a " what are you doing here you don't belong here" kind of look etched over her face which is a surprise because I've been a customer ever since they opened and while I'm not a regular for to remember my face I am a part of the community, even if I don't look like it. Whatever preconceived look she was expecting I don't know. I'm not expecting anyone to smile like I'm someone's long lost relative, but I am hoping in this world to be treated with kindness that I offer as well. Civility would be welcome. I honestly felt like they couldn't wait for me to leave the store which is a very odd and uncomfortable experience. Oddly enough, the case was kind of empty. They had their signature cinnamon rolls and pecan buns, which are always on point, but the vibe was really off today.

I got the Hazelnut Cheesecake Mousse and Breakfast Croissant. The Hazelnut Cheesecake Mousse had a stick blue fondant above it, which I think was mostly used for decor. I did not like it a lot so we took it off and it made the cake taste a lot better. There were not super strong hints of the cheesecake flavor, but it tasted fine. I wish the Breakfast Croissant had a type of meat in it, but it was still good. The croissant was very buttery and large. I would probably rate this spot a 3.5/5 stars if I could. The food I got did not impress me too much, but I would love to give them another shot and try their other pastries.
