    Something to note off the bat, everything here is scratch-made & fresh... yes, they run out of…read moreitems & once they're out, they're out for the day. You absolutely cannot show up an hour before close and expect a full case, or even that day's lunch offer, (which I never order anyway.) Personally, I love that for 2 reasons: less food waste & it motivates you to get there before they run out. With that out of the way, on to the "good stuff" & I do mean that both literally & figuratively. I'll note they are listed as French pastries, this is important, as it sets an expectation comparatively to, say, the local donut shop/ the other "bread (pastry) shop" - &, they are very different styles, indeed. Humble brag moment, International traveler here & I've had the pleasure of some amazing pastries. These guys do fit the French-style that they're boasting about. They made a solid almond croissant & have some tasty savory rotations, as well as sweet. Their crepes are my favorite eat-out breakfast item in town. They offer both sweet & savory options, another bonus, as I'm a savory gal. In short, i probably don't go here as often as I should

    We are driving on hwy 2 crosscountry and wanted coffee, matcha, and a treat! We hit the jackpot…read morefinding Minot's Daily Bread. We had a flaky pastry with cheese and egg - excellent and not too heavy! We also had their last caramel cream filled crumpet - also excellent and it is filled so plan how you eat it. Everything else looked so good, including their bakery bread, that I wanted one of each but was pretty sure that would not have worked traveling. The place was nothing special (yet) but it was clean and had cute tables and chairs as well as counter seating for when it gets busier. It also had parking around the building AND a drive through window (for those familiar with the bakery choices or just wanting a beverage). I was not in on the initial encounter with the counter person but my husband wasn't thrilled with the interaction. Not sure which side of the counter the breakdown occurred but it is true that she didn't smile or seem to want to be there and was a bit curt when asked to warm our egg pastry. The manager stepped in immediately to make sure our pastry was warmed in an oven for a minute. (They, THANKFULLY don't use microwaves which was fine by me.) It was perfect. If ever I'm in Minot, I'll make a point of coming here with a much bigger appetite!

    First of all I have Zero expectations because it's North Dakota and I am from way down south where…read morebbq is damn near a religion, so it is taken seriously. After walking in I was greeted and asked where I wanted to sit, we eventually decided a table. For one?!?!yeah sure. After finding out whose section i was sitting in, I placed my order and within 10 minutes my food was on my table! Hot and delicious as it turns out. The ribs were tender, perfectly seasoned, juicy and smoked to perfection! I did not need sauce but tried a few of them Anyway. LOL! The bbq baked beans were also perfectly done, tender, full of flavor, savory with a little bit of heat and three types of beans which worked somehow. Now the biggest surprise to me was the potato salad, which 95% of restaurants get terrible wrong. This one was an 8 out of 10! So my service was great, the food was great, it was fast, hot and delicious. My one negative is that it's located in North Dakota!!!!!!! Also the place was full of families with kids but the ambiance was still chill enough to take a date. 10 out of 10!

    We received very little food for the price here. Over $75 spent for 3 adults, and we all left still…read morehungry. And we are not big people, big eaters by any means. The brisket we were served was mostly fat. Very little meat. Their hot BBQ sauce was tasty! The brisket plates were $21 each, we expected a decent sized portion. What we received were children sized portions. Their Mac & cheese and broccoli were both really good! Also, their okra. We had signed up for their Rewards Program prior to visiting. However, upon check out we did not receive the promo we were supposed to receive, nor did we receive credit for the $75 we spent on our visit. Charging customers a high premium like this, you would expect the rewards program promos and credit to be a bit more seamless and functional. Lastly, we were overcharged on our bill. So do be mindful of this if you visit. Would probably not consider going back here. Can definitely get more food for your $ some place else.
