This is always a pit stop when I visit Duluth. Not only does this bakery house a HUGE selection of impressive pastries and drinks, it's super-comfy...just a great place to hang out!
Again, I grabbed several pastries while here (mostly to take back home with me)...and this time, I also ordered a hot Green Latte.
My disappointment came when this Matcha Latte was placed in a paper cup, instead of an actual coffee cup, complete with cafe art. Not sure if they gave up the coffee cups or the cafe art (like before in the past?)...but it just wasn't impressive. Luckily, the Matcha Latte tasted great. Still, for the lackluster presentation of the Matcha Latte, am docking a star. Just hoping they'll pick that back up in the future.
Also, although the selection was still big, I noticed an incomplete display this time around. Maybe because I stopped in too early (around 9:30 amish?), but I ws thinking they'd have more, not less, at this early time of day. Guess for the first time ever, this was a tad disappointing of a visit.
Still, it won't deter me from re-visiting...as this is probably in my Top 3 bakeries to visit while in Duluth. Still though, I was thinking, if this bakery was in Charlotte, NC, for instance, it would have been a bonafide 5-stars...but there are SO many premium bakeries in Duluth, this place isn't even 5 stars. WOW. Yes, even as a traveler in Duluth, I'm a bit spoiled with bakeries at this point.
