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!

Very small, cute bakery tucked back of the lake and up the mountainside. I always mean to hit it…read morebut finally had the stomach space for some pastry and bread! The baker who checked me out was really friendly and happily answered my questions about availability and some day-old loaves (they have discounted day-olds!). Went in to get a baguette but it turns out they're an "occasional" item so I'd call ahead to ask. Ended up getting a couple things I'll note below. I'd probably put them around the quality Duluth's Best Bread but I like supporting a much more progressive place that gives back to the community. - An almond croissant that was solid for the price. Not mind-blowing, but wasn't too dense like a lot are. The flavor was really good. - A loaf of the day-old multigrain that was still excellent. Used it for toast and as a vessel for some A+ salmon dip from Northern Waters - Dog treats! It was neat seeing the fundraiser and always love getting a snack for the dog. They're not smelly, made from simple ingredients, and the pup loved them

Was hunting for any open coffee shop (hopeful for pastry too) on New Year's day and stumbled upon…read morethis bakery. They had a huge variety of pastries and breads and I went with a Caramel Pecan Roll and a Ham & Cheese Croissant, both very yummy tho the roll could've easily been shared by one or two more people. I also got a Caramel Latte which I didn't have high hopes for because this place looked like primarily a bakery but I was pleasantly surprised, it was decently good. I will certainly stop here again if I am ever in need of a baked good in Duluth but there were a couple "We can refuse service to anyone" signs that gave a slightly weird vibe to an otherwise warm and friendly looking place.

Delicious cookie delivery?!? Wowowow. We were craving late night sweets and ordered a 6 pack…read moredelivered including: semi-sweet chocolate chunk, sea salt hazelnut, apple pie and classic pink sugar and every. single. one. was out of this world. They're slightly crispy on the outside, but thick and dense and borderline gooey on the inside - and they're huge! They definitely require milk :) The sea salt hazelnut had gooey Nutella inside and oh man. I thought the pink sugar was going to be boring, but it had a strong almond/marzipan flavor which I love (but not for everyone). The Apple pie was really like a little tart. And of course the chocolate chunk was stellar. It helped to see pics of the cookies, so make sure to look at their website menu before you order! Now I will say that this is a pricey treat! I can't speak for pickup (and it's almost impossible to find pricing on their website without signing in?), but we ordered delivery through Uber eats and all told with fees, taxes, tip, it was about $45 for 6 cookies. But we also assumed they were going to be regular size and not huge, so we could've gotten away with fewer. Not that they're going to waste! Next time I'd probably get one of each of the rotating flavors and cut them into quarters for people to try. We'll definitely be picking some up in the future to bring to parties!
