When you walk in the bakery/coffee shop feels open, cozy, unpretentious, and welcoming, I ordered a caramel latte which was good. The beans were on the lighter side. This can be a tricky coffee shop to work from as it's a bit on the smaller side. We got lucky and a table opened up outside, but just as a heads up most seating is outside.

For this weekend's edition of coffee shop Saturday, I chose Yellow Dog and I'm so glad I did…read more Yellow Dog is located in a really busy location. There are several other businesses that share the small parking lot, so parking is slim. It's super cute and cozy inside with a few tables. There's also a few tables outside. I was greeted right away by the awesome staff. My daughter and I both ordered iced coconut lattes, she has a 12oz, I had a 16oz, and I ordered a slice or coffee cake to go. After my first sip, I wished there was a 24 oz. That was the best iced latte ever!!! The coffee cake was so perfect, but made me wish I had a hot latte to accompany it...I'll have to go back!! I'm super made at myself for not buying any of their bread or any of their other locally or in house made goods, everything looked so fresh & delicious.

Two weeks ago, the sidewalk was closed . Ordered the sizzler and it was delicious. I like that the croissant is not over toasted although next time I will ask for a lighter browned one. I was greeted promptly and my order was taken rapidly. She was courteous and efficient. I did try the green monster smoothie but it was too much banana. I appreciate them having a water jug so you can get a cup of water on your own. The California stack was big and good. Flavors blend really well. Definitely coming back and probably adding it to morning place rotation as a solid option.

We ordered the honey garlic toast, which was so tasty. The cheese was melted to perfection and the bread was fluffy, with the chopped nuts, honey, and herbs being a very nice touch.

Despite living in Raleigh for over a decade, I just visited Boulted Bread for the first time last…read moreweek. If you live in Raleigh, you've heard people rave about Boulted Bread - from their titular bread to their morning bun to their croissants, they have everything a carb connoisseur could desire. I visited with a friend on a Tuesday morning (they currently are not open on Mondays) and it was busy. I ordered their seasonal fig leaf latte, the morning bun, chocolate croissant, and a tartine that was kind of like a pizza on a piece of bread. The latte was delicious - it has brown sugar in it, which was perfect as the iced version. The morning bun was delightful - probably my second favorite morning bun/cinnamon roll in Raleigh. The chocolate croissant was filled with chocolate ganache - which I was not expecting - it was messy but also very good. Lastly, the tarine, which like I mentioned, was kind of like a pizza on a piece of toast - it had cheese tomato sauce - simple and savory and tasty. Overall, I felt Boulted Bread lives up to the hype. A Raleigh classic that is a perfect stop for a morning treat.

My tip is to walk over to the Platform apartments and sit in the common areas under there. The biale was a little hard, maybe because it was early afternoon. But morning bun was good. They had sold out a fair amount of the pastries by 2, but still had lots of morning buns. The light in the building is very nice. Good place to get a treat!

We ordered a buttered croissant & cream bombolina to eat there and I took home a double chocolate cookie & 2 pastels. The Bombolina was the best cream "donut" I've ever had.

I…read morewondered if the selection would match the original, but if anything this exceeded it, with options I had not seen on numerous trips before including a spinach croissant, khachapuri, and various shaped and flavored mousses. The place has a very European vibe, including the staff working there. I spent quite a long time perusing the selection and bought several things but really could have bought one of everything. The flakiness of the croissant I took for myself was on point, but really it's all just fantastically indulgent. There are more sweet options than savory. I got things packaged up nicely which is important when you're transporting these items for others to eat. I have not tried any beverages there so can't comment on that end, but I find it difficult to leave North Carolina without stopping in to look at the display at one of these bakeries.

The space inside can get cramped at certain times of the day, but they try to make most of it with tables and booths. Service was friendly and quick. I got the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit. The biscuit was a bit sweet which paired interestingly with the savory bacon, egg, and cheese. I think I prefer a savory or salty biscuit, but it was still good. i'll I really enjoyed the fried egg because of the runny yolk, especially since most of these biscuits use a scrambled egg so this was unique to me. The bacon and cheese on their own were also good. My friends and I shared a Fruit Cup/Bowl which was actually refreshing. The fruit was actually sweet and not tart! I did not try their drinks, although I probably should have considering how well-liked they are. I would come back if I was in the area to try the other items on their menu. Plus, this is a nice work or study spot.
