Delicious and unique pastries! Awesome breakfast sandwiches with friendly service. A must when you are on Hatteras Island.

My husband talks about apple uglies year round! I had the pleasure of ordering a chugly (chocolate apple ugly) this summer and my husband and I both agreed we preferred it! This place is popular so make sure you keep your wits about you in the parking lot, we witnessed an accident when we were there. read more

Love the ladies behind the counter. Always so nice and don't make me feel like a customer they make me feel like family. Only downside would say is the girl that brought out the food she wasn't acknowledging who she called. So customer was taking another's food. Can be frustrating. Besides that the breakfast sandwiches are yummy. Will be back again soon read more

First time trying an apple ugly and woww... SO GOOD! Our first attempt to try Orange Blossom was a fail. We arrived around 10:30 am and they were completely sold out of pretty much every pastry, including their iconic apple uglies. They are only open 6:30am - 11am, so the next day we decided to come back around 8am and were able to secure the goods! My biggest tip is arrive early if you want options. The staff working was very friendly and helped us decide what to get. We ended up going with an apple ugly and cinnamon roll. One apple ugly could feed a family of 4....this thing is huge! And so delicious. We also really enjoyed the cinnamon roll. Everything was baked fresh and warm. It made for a very delicious treat! read more

Stopped in for another Apple Ugly cinnamon roll. It's huge! Also got a regular cinnamon bun with the crumble on top. One day I will try a hot breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful. Several places to eat outside on the deck. read more

The Apple Ugly was worth the wait! I would say the line moved quickly. It took me two days to eat the Apple Ugly. It is definitely sharable. It was probably 8in round and 4in tall. I could see it being the perfect treat in the fall time. My husband ordered an everything bagel toasted with butter and got a plain bagel not toasted. It was a little disappointing for him, since he is not a breakfast person. They also didn't have plain orange juice. Parking was a mess! Originally we pulled in and waited for a spot for someone to then pull through and take the spot we were waiting for. We parked down the street at the tackle shop and walked. read more

Wowza those apple uglies are something else! Huge and deliciously stuffed with cinnamon apples. Bonus if you're able to get one fresh and warm as they come out. read more

This place is really cute with seating on the deck. Super busy so you know they're good! I tried the pastries today. I got the cream cheese danish, a chugley, a chocolate Danish and a cinnamon twist. Ive had a better Danish in my hometown in md. This was pretty good though. The cream cheese was lacking flavor and the Danish pastry could use a little more sugar in it. I did like how flaky the crusts were though. Still would go back for more. I heard the breakfast omelets or sandwiches were the best around so I will try that next time. read more

This place is worth the hype & waiting in line! I visited on a Sunday morning around 9am. The parking lot was slammed full, but managed to grab a spot. There was a long line, but it moved pretty quick. At this cafe, you order your food inside & then go wait outside for them to call your order You select your pastries, donuts, muffins, danishes, & apple uglies at the counter & are handed them at check out. For the breakfast sandwiches & burritos; you order them at the counter, pay & then wait outside for them to call your name with your order. It's a unique cafe since it doesn't have indoor seating. (Well it does, but it's closed off) There are a few tables & chairs outside for seating. Today I tried their: Chocolate Covered Apple Ugly, Sprinkle Donut, Danish, & Breakfast Burrito, Decaf Coffee Everything was so delicious & made with love. The burrito was cooked perfectly, filled with lots of food, & was yummy. I could even taste the salsa! **It important to know that there's a $10 minimum for card purchases. I forgot to grab drinks when I checked out the first time so then I had to buy more because the drinks were under $10. Just a little something important to know! :) read more

This is a take out bakery. You go in, order and wait on the porch for your order. SO had read that orange blossom had a few special items that we needed to try. We both got breakfast sandwiches- his with sausage, mine with bacon. Sandwiches can be gotten on multiple breads, a bagel, or croissants. (I think there may have been other breads, but I just don't remember.) Ours were on croissants and we're really very tasty. Saved half of mine for a snack for later. (Heated well even in a microwave.) Cheese in it seemed like mozzarella and was really thick slice, really good. The bonus was the Apple Ugly. I just couldn't wrap my head around why you would call it that until be broke into it. There is a strip of apples and cinnamon in the dough and then the dough is wrapped around in a ball and baked. It seemed to weigh at least a full pound. When we picked it up, it was still warm. This also tasted good a day later. Parking is a small sandy parking lot. People come and go while some enjoy their morning goodies right there on the porch. It's a cute bakery, has good food and is always busy. Go for the apple ugly. read more

Fabulous Bakery, obviously known for the $6 Apple Uglies, but apparently, they make magnificent breakfast sandwiches and other pastries as well. No line, very fair prices, adorable patio, clean, and delicious. Employees are super friendly and happy to be there, but who wouldn't be getting to smell that all day? An absolute must stop when you're in Hatteras/Buxton. I will be dreaming about that Apple Ugly. read more

An amazing breakfast cafe. There can be an extended wait so be prepared. Well worth the time. The Apple ugly was fantastic. Sitting on the front porch was very comfortable.

I came back here for another visit. Unfortunately, the day I came, they had no apple uglies or donuts. They did not have enough material to make them supposedly. I went with one of their breakfast sandwiches, the shadow. It was a double decker sandwich with 2 layers of ham, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayo on their homemade bread. This was very large and stuffed. The key to this was the bread. It was soft and held up all the sandwich filings. The bacon was crisp while the rest of the ingredients seemed fresh. The bread was definitely the highlight here. read more

Just stop here. We've driven past for years--hurrying to get to Ocracoke. But today we decided to stop on our way back north and WOW...these are the best pastries and worth the (quick & friendly) wait in line. The only thing we regret is not stopping here sooner--but we'll definitely be back next time. read more

Absolutely amazing! The employees were super sweet and the food was delicious! Don't know why it has to be 86 letters to post a review lol..

The apple fritters are good and they are very popular ! My favorite is the iced cinnamon roll ! Give this bakery a try . You will need to get your early to get in line if you want an apple fritter but it's worth it . read more

10 am is too late if you want the apple ugliest! Try again later I will. Service was great, got donuts and giant fruit filled tarts: very excellent. Husband say the tart is the best pastry he has ever had. Go early read more

This place rocks! We came in for Sunday breakfast. Ordering is quick and easy, there's a display of all of the fresh pastries and a menu with savory breakfast as well, so they take your order and you pay. Then they bring it out to you on the patio. There are several tables on the patio that are nice and spacious. The food is really good and quite reasonably priced. We had to try the Chuglie, which is a gigantic apple fritter with chocolate sauce. It was sooo good, definitely get it! Then for something savory, I got the egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was so flaky and buttery, and it had a lot of cheese, very tasty! read more

The ugly thing was outta this world! I can see why people go back every time they visit. It was HUGE like the size of my head huge. I didn't eat it all but totally worth it! read more

Great breakfast foods and awesome staff. There is usually a like but it goes super fast

Interior is small, but very clean. It can get really crowded with their little patio seating area and no interior seating, but their pastries are literally to die for! They get you what you order quick as possible, so the service is great. They never make a bad pastry, they all are beautiful and delicious read more

Apple Uglies - Amazing. Huge. Weird in the best way. They get even better if you let them sit around on the counter for a few hours. We joke that they "age like cheese," and think the apple filling starts to seep into the fried dough. A must try. Chocolate Double Dipped Donuts - Dank. As a donut snob, I was thoroughly pleased. The perfect size and the icing was just superb. Very fresh. Biscuit Breakfast Sandwich - Really good. The bacon was undercooked, which was pretty gross for me, but the sandwich as a whole was good. I drizzled honey on mine, because why not. read more

Picked up two of their "uglies" (basically a giant apple fritter) fresh first thing in the morning. They were *so* delicious fresh and warm! The other sweets and breakfast Sandos I saw others eating looked good, a cool vibe on the patio too! Service was friendly and kind, fast and prompt. Parking was a challenge but not a big problem for me! read more

Drove 20 miles to get an Apple ugly. Got stuck in traffic and didn't get there until just before closing! We arrived at 10:40 & it was busy but we were hopeful! We walked in behind some clown who took the last 2 apple uglies! So we settled for a cinnamon roll, a hand pie and doughnut holes. They were good especially the cherry pie! Wish they stayed open a little longer in season. read more
