Incredible little bakery & coffee shop nestled off of College Ave in Saint Joe! Their fresh pastries & bread are absolutely incredible and I could easily leave with one of everything. They also do a spectacular job with their coffees - offering a variety of options and seasonal drinks. Their space is small with no indoor seating so a line can often be found out the door but the service is very fast and they have a nice outdoor patio in the back if it's good weather! read more

Fantastic locally owned bakery. Best ever shortbread cookies--with rosemary! We try something new every visit and are always impressed.

I wasn't at the restaurant because of the hours. However, I got to sample the King cake. I think one of the main ingredients is cinnamon. For me it would have been enough if they just served the frosting. I would have sought out more samples, but I was too full. The owner says they always have a variety of pie on hand. It's one of those places where you just know that everything Erin makes is delicious and made with love. read more

Such a great place! I've been multiple times but unfortunately never remember to take pictures before digging into my goodies!! The baked goods and pastries are all homemade and amazinggg. My personal favorite is any of the croissants - they are buttery, flaky, and delicious! They also have a great selection of lattes, teas, lemonades, and other drinks. It's a small shop with no indoor seating but have a few outdoor tables when the weather is nice! read more

Stopped in before having lunch at Krewe. They are located in a separate building around back which took me a minute to figure out. Excellent service. A very small shop with outside seating. The breads are the best items. Baguette - excellent Cinnamon Morning Bun - very good Granola - okay, not sweet and little flavor Sugar Daddy Frosted Rice Crispy - very good THE Cookie - average read more

Amazing tiny bakery tucked behind the Krew restaurant. They're actually run by the same couple where the wife runs Flour & Flower and the husband runs Krew. They've got a fantastic, rotating assortment of bread, pastries, and light lunch offerings. Everything changes seasonally and the menu is announced on Facebook each morning based on what's fresh and available. The cafe is tiny and doesn't have any inside seating but there are plenty of benches and parks nearby to enjoy your spoils. They tend to sell out pretty quickly so you want to get there on the early side. Their service has always been super fast and friendly with a charming "small town" feel. This time we got a strawberry vanilla scone and the spinach & garlic scape croissant. The scone is a more southern, soft and bready style instead of the crumbly European ones. It's crazy soft and very flavorful. The vanilla sugar crust is a nice textural change from the squishy scone. The croissant is amazingly light, buttery, and crusty. It explodes with flakes but still has all the delicious filling intact. Highly recommend any of their laminated goods. You definitely want their focaccia if they offer it. This place is worth a road trip. read more

Stopped by this St. Joseph favorite yesterday and realized that in all my times coming here, I still hadn't left a review. I've said it once and I'll say it again: Flour and Flower is one of the best bakeries in Minnesota, as well as one of the state's best kept secrets. Most recently, I got the Peach, Plum, & Apple Turnover, which was delicious and I can't recall the last time I had plum anything! The Dark Chocolate Lavender Shortbread is to die for, as is the Salted Rosemary Shortbread. If like me you can't choose, don't and get both! Honestly, you really can't go wrong. They also have an assortment of pies (matcha tea custard, anyone?), breads, cookies, pizzas (on pizza night -- Monday from 5 to 8:30 p.m.), flowers, and super cute merchandise. If I could live there I just might. You can find parking to the right hand side of the building or there is easy to find street parking on College Ave and W Minnesota St. Note: This is not a sit down place and you won't find seating. The Most Important Note: Worried about Flour & Flower selling out before you get there (it happens!)? You can preorder food for pickup on their website. If you're in the cities, I recommend taking a little day trip up to St. Joseph, looking at all the cute shops, grabbing brunch at Krewe, some baked goods from Flour and Flower for the ride home (if you can wait!), and ending the day with a stop at, in my opinion, the best cidery in the state, Milk & Honey Ciders. Feel free to check out my reviews of both! read more

Road Trip!! What an awesome find on a wonderful weekend drive!!! We were pleasantly surprised to find this wonderful welcoming shop last Saturday!!! Flour and Flower is so welcoming from the outside and the STAFF is even more welcoming inside! Coffee, cookies, pastries, breads, pizza and gifts fill this awesome shop. We were shopping on a full stomach so we only came away with a few goodies. We purchased a molasses cookie and some rosemary shortbread cookies for friends. They REALLY enjoyed them and we're sad to find that they were 90 miles away from the next ones :( We treated ourselves to an "everything" chocolate chip cookie, a banana bread loaf, and croissants to go! We enjoyed these wonderful treats over the next several days. Flour and Flower also have great unique bouquets and gifts. I could not resist a beautiful pair of crane earrings. A gift for...me! So many tasty and wonderful treats and gifts fill this cozy shop. ENJOY!!!! read more
