Stopped in on a Saturday around noon. They still had lots of options! The ham and cheese croissant…read moremust be popular/ there was only one left! I saw they have frozen pretzels- which is perfect because I didn't want to eat it right now. I got two of those to go. I also got a blueberry danish for my husband- he approved! And two loaves of bread- the cheese curd and the rosemary onion in the one pound option. (They have a two pound and it's huge!) We enjoyed the bread toasted with butter and for avocado toast during the week. They offered to slice the rosemary onion bread but not the cheese curd- there's something about the cheese curd that they said they don't slice it. I can't remember. But it's fine/ we sliced our own. The pecan rolls and the cinnamon rolls looked amazing but I'm more of a savory gal. The shop was super cute. They have a sourdough class coming up. They have coffees and couches. Bathrooms for customers. Some merchandise for sale. They even have a monthly club where you can pick up or have your items delivered to you! Wow! I wish I lived in the area just for this bakery. I enjoyed reading about the business on their website/ two brothers!

Amazing amazing service!!! My husband and I were warmly greeted as soon as we walked in. We got…read morean enthusiastic run down of the menu and found out all the bread is baked fresh. I had the Duluth latte, which is super sweet but tasty. My husband had the drip coffee which was also really good. We shared their cheese curd sourdough bread and it is so good! You can taste the freshness, and my husband was already making plans to have it with his breakfast tomorrow morning. The ambiance is fun and casual. They have plenty of seating with pillows shaped like bread loaves and macarons. I was definitely eyeballing that pecan caramel cinnamon roll so we may have to venture back sooner than expected. Duluth's Best Bread is a solid choice for bread, baked goods, and coffee. Ten outta ten, no notes!

Love, Love, Love this bakery!!!!! When I travel I like to check out local bakeries and this one is…read moreone of my favorites. I bought cookies and they were big, delicious and reasonably priced. But the best was the Roasted Red Pepper bread, it was to die for. Wish I would have bought more loaves. I asked a lot of questions and the employees were patient and very informative. Can't wait to go back to Duluth for this bakery and many more places I visited. The bakery was homelike and very appealing.

When I'm in the Duluth area, I usually try to snag a treat from 3rd Street Bakery. I normally go…read morefor either their blueberry or raspberry bar but their cookies are a good choice too. My kids (and my wife and I, let's be honest) really love the S'mores cookie but that Thunder cookie is pretty darn good too. You can build a pack of cookies with that day's flavors, 6 cookies will run you $12.50. Cookies are crisp and chewy, a good mixture of soft and crisp. If cookies are not in your diet, there is an assortment of savory breads and breakfast pastries as well. Back to those fruit bars, their blueberry bar is great. Full of fresh fruit with a touch of vanilla, so good!

The BEST Bread INDEED! We were told that we HAD to try the best bread in Duluth, and WOWSERS, it…read moreabsolutely IS THE BEST BREAD! My husband was born in France (military) and we have gone back to enjoy all things French, but mostly the bread! So he orders a PLAIN croissant. There were gorgeous chocolate, almond and plain in the case - and he chooses plain! Of course I chose the BEST bread - Cranberry Wild Rice Sourdough.... nothing plain there! Tasty, a bit chewy, and the whole loaf was delicious - to the last slice! We sat down to enjoy the cozy environment and our best bread in Duluth! This pretty much says it all.... My husband took one bite of his "plain" croissant and his immediate response was, "Butter!!!" He said that was why he ordered "the plain" croissant. It tasted as good as the croissants he has eaten in France! Enough said and he ate every crumb of that FABULOUS buttery croissant! Another reason to come back to Duluth! :)

Beautiful shop. Zero negatives, just COME HERE ASAP AS POSSIBLE.

I dined here on my birthday the other evening and our server, Amanda, took exceedingly good care of…read moreus! She gave us great recommendations that lived up to her descriptions of them. We started with halves of the Beet salad and Va Bene salad for starters. I love the options for different sizes of salads. Each were exactly as I was hoping for, light with good toppings to greens ratios. The Conchiglie Con Funghi with gluten free noodles and steak tips on top was fabulous. Prosciutto crumbles on top that looks like bacon crumbles paired well with the genours amount of mushroom. The Gorgonzola al Peperoncino with gluten free noodles was the perfect spice level, 6-7/10, with a sweetness and creaminess to it that I'm still thinking about to this day. For dessert, their Spumoni gelato was to die for; an Italian version of Neapolitan with better flavors and mix-ins. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy with a tasteful mix of upscale and casual. I highly recommend dining here & will be coming back when I'm back in town!

My friend described the coziness of it as "your grandma's house". We got in line right in time because it filled up right after we ordered. They have tons of coffee and tea options as well as baked goods and hot food of the day items (quiche, frittata, etc). They also do beer and wine and had a solid tap selection. I had the dovetail latte and my friend had an iced vanilla latte and we both loved our coffees. They also have a small craft and trinket section from local sellers which was so cool and made the space feel so homey. It was so good we ended up doing back later that weekend as well. Recommend if you're in the area!

The scone had good texture but not much flavor. For $13 it seemed a bit steep in price.

There prices are reasonable and allow you to drive up to pick up your groceries from the store instead of having to carry it to your car. They have a nice selection of grocery products and carry some products that both Cub Foods and Super One foods do not. The wait staff is also very friendly and helpful.

It's unique, it's amazing, and I happen to love bananas. The counter lady told us they have the best cream cheese frosting anywhere. We vote it second best, and that's a really high compliment from my crew. Everything was SO good. Everything. I think I tried 4 types of pastries.

So I got the Apple fritter also as my back up . I asked for a coffee, but they only had drip so I was like yeah this is a special day. No thanks to the coffee. So we weren't feeling too good about what we got from the bakery . We could tell that she really was more of a commercial baker so I really wasn't sure what we're going to get. So I tore a chunk of the apple fritter off, and I was blown away . It was the best apple fritter I've ever had in my entire life. Later that night, I decided to try the maple long John despite the fact that there's custard inside it . It was the best efffing donut I've ever had . I hate custard - but this custard was light and creamy and zero greasy after taste. I will think of these donuts for the rest of my life and all others will fall short.
