Bleu Door Bakery

"Several years ago, Bonnie Brasure expanded her popular uptown bakery and cafe into the building next door. A sunflower-filled mural inspired by southern France fills the new space, known for its weekday lineup of breakfast classics like biscuits and gravy and lunch favorites like soup and sandwiches as well as Bleu Door’s own pastries. On weekends, brunch items like beignets with Bleu Door’s lemon curd, avocado toast, and biscuits and gravy (vegan and otherwise) are complemented by mimosas and bloody marys." - Rachel Pinsky

"This uptown village bakery and cafe is known for breakfast and lunch during the week and weekend brunch. It’s not a traditional kids' place, but a spot for youngsters to get fancy brunch dishes like eggs Benedict and seasonal baked croissant French toast while working on their table manners." - Rachel Pinsky

"Bonnie Brasure recently added a black-and-white-striped awning, with clear side panels and heaters, to the space outside her bakery and cafe in Uptown Village. The outdoor space attracts ladies who lunch catching up after a long social hiatus, as well as couples enjoying a relaxing mid-day break. They dine on soups like Brasure’s mushroom barley, a restorative mix of wild mushrooms and tender barley pearls, alongside decadent meat-free options like crustless quiches packed with bits of broccoli and melted cheddar cheese. Tables are limited, so it’s worth it to go during typically slow hours." - Rachel Pinsky
