Was down the street and my 4 year old wanted waffles. Was expecting to order at a counter and have…read morea number called. We were pleasantly surprised when we were seated with a smile and friendly service even though they closed in half an hour. I didn't feel rushed, but also didn't want anyone to need to stay late on our behalf. I ordered the Nashville Hot chicken. Temperature wise it was very hot. Spice was pretty mild in my opinion. Waffle was okay. Seemed like everything had been premade and frozen maybe. My daughter had the kids strawberry and whipped cream waffle and it was decent. The service was excellent and the food was okay. I'd probably only go back if I was 5 minutes away and the kid's wanted waffles.

It was packed inside but we were seated fairly quickly. All the staff we encounter were really nice. I had originally wanted to stop by for a Bloody Mary but also ended up ordering a mini mess haul. I ate a little less than half and took the rest home. The waffle was smothered in a sausage gravy that was a bit bland for me but hot sauce helped. This place remained busy the whole time we were here. Which I take as a good sign. The Bloody Mary I ordered was so yummy. Definitely need the salt that morning haha.

The quality is there- no doubt about it. You can tell the pastry is spot on. I would probably rate it a 4.75 total but rounded up. The egg in the egg croissant was over done and that made it not as enjoyable. Ham and cheese croissant was good. The raspberry danish pastry was the star of the show. Also enjoyed the currant scone with pearl sugar. Would like a few more drink options.

Finally today we got there and they still had a hand full of items. Got a couple different flavors of bagels and a almond pastry on twice baked brioche. Delicious!

Vanilla vodka, raspberry liqueur, raspberries & whipped cream was super-yummy!! The Salmon Crustini, Mushroom Crustini, Bruschetta, and Chipotle Chicken Sammie were absolutely delicious!! This place is so cool! We'll be back again VERY soon! Thank you! Cheers!

Expired hot sauce three times now!…read more I was here a few months back and their hot sauce bottle had green clumps in it... they gave me a new bottle which was nice, but I came back today and once again, they had green clumps in their franks red hot... I asked the waiter for a replacement and he brought me ANOTHER bottle that was mostly full, however it had the green clumps in it too! Its best by date was back in July... Im not sure how theyre storing these things but ive been using franks red hot for years and never see green clumps in it. On top of all that, the waiter brings me his ipad for me to pay, and after I pay he sets the ipad down right in front of me with the minimum tip being 20%... I felt kind of uncomfortable knowing he is staring behind me, I changed the tip to 10% and said thanks and he walked away without even responding. Holy water please take a look at your hot sauce and change the minimum tip to something lower, you shouldn't participate in the toxic tipping culture that puts the onus on your patrons to pay your workers 20 percent as a minimum. Besides that the food is amazing.

Oxalis Kitchen serves local coffee yes, but also fantastic lunches with many locally sourced items from the Poulsbo Farmers Market. Oxalis is open Wednesday-Friday.

Sure the sweets are amazing but the Savory lunch fare here is also fantastic and also includes locally sourced products from the Poulsbo Farmers Market and the same great local coffee. Today we had the roasted tomato and Brie on toast and the Salmon sandwich which is awesome! Fresh brewed coffee was medium but more flavorful than you will likely find almost anywhere else in Poulsbo. Take it from this local coffee fantastic. Be sure to try the desserts!

Ordered a galette filled with goat cheese, Greek olives and spinach..,it was warmed up and delicious! Enjoyed a 12oz latte..the espresso was tasty. To bring home I bought a chocolate chip cookie and a bag of hazelnut shortbread cookies. We arrived just in time because the place got very crowded. Have lived in the area over 20 yrs and had no idea Hansville had a bakery. All the lunch items and baked goods looked yummy! It is worth the stop. The customer service was outstanding. You can seat inside...it is bright and quaint or on the front porch.

There is no place to sit inside but there are sidewalk benches or you can walk as you snack. I love that you can look at all the pastries from the side walk. They not only entice you to get a pastry or three but you can plan out what you want while waiting in line. When you order, if I remember correctly, you only get your items in a box if you order more than six items. If you order less they are placed into a waxed bag. I ordered the sour cream donut, Viking cup, and a butterhorn with almonds. I loved them all! They all tasted so fresh, had a great texture, and was absolutely yummy. The Viking cup had the perfect balance of frosting to bun.

First time visiting after I tried going in the past and it was closed. I got the Viking cup, which…read morewas highly recommended by reviewers and the person taking my order. There was a line out the door even 30 minutes before closing, but it went pretty fast and the shelves were also well stocked with pastries; not bare like I expected them to be coming so soon before closing. The person behind the counter explained that the Viking cups were all 20% off as the batch that day came out with irregular shapes. Taste wise it wasn't bad, tastes like a regular cinnamon roll but with more of that homemade touch you get with good quality ingredients and handmade cream cheese frosting (the contrast from store bought to homemade is big when it comes to cream cheese). The frosting had good texture and surprisingly I liked it better than the actual roll, especially since I'm known to always remove cream cheese icing. I think the roll would have been better if it had been served warm. Overall it was not bad, a little sweeter than I would have preferred, but I'm also not a huge cinnamon roll or cream cheese fan because of how sweet they always are in general, so that could just be a personal preference. Want to try the pecan roll or any of the cookies next time I visit, those sounded promising as well. Prices here are also pretty decent considering how touristy this place is, and coming from Seattle, anything under $5 is a relief. Definitely will become a place I hit every time I'm in Poulsbo!

They still have pretty decent food. Great service. However, the prices have gone way sky high. And…read moreevery time I think about going there now, I changed my mind when I look at the menu prices, and I choose something else. That's just me. I love good tasting quality clean food, which they serve. I do, though, need more budget friendly meals. When the price of a salad, there costs as much as me, feeding a family of three, i have to pause and prioritize. That said, though they have the best chef. I don't eat baked goods, but those who do love their baked goods as well. So definitely patronize them. I'll be back a few times a year, when they rotate their menu and there's something I really want. I just can't eat there once or twice a month like I used to. And it's really the the fact that they price themselves out of my range.

So far, we have treated ourselves to the following selections: Focaccia Prosciutto Muffuletta, Mango New York Cheesecake, and the Focaccia Cinnamon Loaf (Vegan). They offer a Breakfast Burrito, Quiche, Japanese Curry, lunch items, muffins, and much more with the menu options changing each week. The owner is gracious, friendly, and willingly talks about his preparations. The ambiance is relaxed with display cases displaying that day's offerings. There are tables and chairs available for those people interested in eating there. They also offer catering services for events, holidays, and private parties. Open Thursday and Friday, 6am-1pm (or sold out) and Saturday and Sunday, 8am-2pm ( or sold out). We just walked into this shop a few days ago for the first time and are looking forward to this shop being a regular treat for us. The window lettering says, "Crazy for Confectionary", but, once a customer walks in the shop, they immediately see they offer so much more! It's a gem in Bremerton and worth a drive or an excuse to check out Quincy Square a block away or stop in before or after catching the ferry.
