Positively Third street is just that, positive. The staff are all kind and helpful, the baked goods are to die for (especially the flourless chocolate cake and anything that they make with laminated pastry), and they are never afraid to put up political signs and stand up for what's right. I don't want to oversell it, but I don't think I can. read more

When I'm in the Duluth area, I usually try to snag a treat from 3rd Street Bakery. I normally go for either their blueberry or raspberry bar but their cookies are a good choice too. My kids (and my wife and I, let's be honest) really love the S'mores cookie but that Thunder cookie is pretty darn good too. You can build a pack of cookies with that day's flavors, 6 cookies will run you $12.50. Cookies are crisp and chewy, a good mixture of soft and crisp. If cookies are not in your diet, there is an assortment of savory breads and breakfast pastries as well. Back to those fruit bars, their blueberry bar is great. Full of fresh fruit with a touch of vanilla, so good! read more

Love, Love, Love this bakery!!!!! When I travel I like to check out local bakeries and this one is one of my favorites. I bought cookies and they were big, delicious and reasonably priced. But the best was the Roasted Red Pepper bread, it was to die for. Wish I would have bought more loaves. I asked a lot of questions and the employees were patient and very informative. Can't wait to go back to Duluth for this bakery and many more places I visited. The bakery was homelike and very appealing. read more

Very small, cute bakery tucked back of the lake and up the mountainside. I always mean to hit it but finally had the stomach space for some pastry and bread! The baker who checked me out was really friendly and happily answered my questions about availability and some day-old loaves (they have discounted day-olds!). Went in to get a baguette but it turns out they're an "occasional" item so I'd call ahead to ask. Ended up getting a couple things I'll note below. I'd probably put them around the quality Duluth's Best Bread but I like supporting a much more progressive place that gives back to the community. - An almond croissant that was solid for the price. Not mind-blowing, but wasn't too dense like a lot are. The flavor was really good. - A loaf of the day-old multigrain that was still excellent. Used it for toast and as a vessel for some A+ salmon dip from Northern Waters - Dog treats! It was neat seeing the fundraiser and always love getting a snack for the dog. They're not smelly, made from simple ingredients, and the pup loved them read more

If you are in Duluth and want great cookies, pastries, or bread - come here. I had an almond croissant that had layers for days with a nice balance of butter pastry crust and almond flavor. A cookie for breakfast dessert as well that had peanut butter, oats, and chocolate all in one. Flatter with a nice crunch edge and a nice moist chewy interior. read more

I come to Duluth a handful of times a year and always like trying somewhere new. With its bright ambiance and ample selection, Positively 3rd Street Bakery was a delightful find this visit! read more

Friendly service and always delicious baked goods! The shop itself is super cute too.

Super cute bakery in Duluth! Was recommended to us by a friend, and it definitely did not disappoint! The baked goods made for such a yummy breakfast, and the workers were so nice! The only downside is that you have to take the items to go, as there is nowhere to sit. read more

I stopped by for a coffee and pastry before a hike. They were one of the only local shops open on Easter. I was disappointed to hear they didn't have any coffee, but that disappointment was short lived because of their delicious raspberry cream cheese danish. Whew, what a treat! They had a wide selection with reasonable prices and a friendly staff. I highly recommend stopping by! read more

Lots of butter, crisp and flaky, fresh!!! The fruit cheese danish was the best I've ever tasted. The oatmeal cookie was okay, not a huge amount of flavor. The prices are fair. Duluth is fortunate to have a scratch bakery in its mist. read more

This is a tiny, worker-owned bakery in a residential neighborhood of Duluth. It's worth a visit given its freshness, ample number of vegan options and friendly, anti-establishment ethos. The banookie cookie ($1.85) is tasty and vegan by default. It features subtle hints of banana, but isn't too sweet and tastes great. The skidmark cookie ($1.85) is also vegan and a rich, chocolate-obsessed creation. I loved it. Lastly, the peanut butter rice crispy bar ($2) is vegan and tastes great with nice texture and chewiness. Pizza Luce offers a similar peanut butter chocolate bar, but it's not nearly as good (and it's twice the price). Visit Positively 3rd Street for delicious, cheap and awesome baked goods. read more

super cute little bakery, and i love their openness on protecting trans kids and other LGBTQ+ matters. i love their gluten free Chocolate Chip Chookies! had them served at my grad party this past year and they were a big hit. the flourless chocolate cake is also incredibly good! (while i'm writing this review however, it wouldn't hurt for them to have more gf options!) read more

After stopping at our first bakery in Duluth, it may not have been fair to stop here as it was going to be a tough act to follow. None the less we had some items that we were looking for and were excited to check them out. Based on the reviews, we were looking forward to trying their Thunder Cookies and their Caramel Croissant. I love caramel and I love a good croissant. That just sounds like baked love to me. Well when we arrived shortly after 10am, they were out of their caramel croissants. That put kind of a downer on our visit as those were high on our list. On the bright side there is a deal on their cookies so we picked up some additional cookies to make us feel better. We enjoyed the other options they had as their breads looked good especially the focaccia however knowing we had lots of food to eat, we were content with our cookies. The cookies were really good. In my opinion its tough to have a bad cookie. The Thunder cookies have peanut butter which is always good In a cookie. We also picked up some chocolate chip cookies which were also very good. I feel this review is a little incomplete since we did not get to try our croissants however next time we are in town we have made a note to stop here first. Better planning hopefully results is more goodies for us next time. read more

The food was fantastic! The staff was awesome! We aren't from the area but have found a great little breakfast spot when we pass through!

Thunder cookies and a combination chocolate chip chocolate peanut butter cookie were very good. However the star of my purchases was the pecan caramel croissant. It was a morning bun on steroids - a wonderful treat. I purchased the last one around 12 PM but there were plenty of other treats to buy. If Duluth was closer this bakery would be a frequent stop. Staff were helpful. read more

Just the best bakery in Duluth. No seating really, but a great stop in the morning. I've had a few items but the scones...THE SCONES. If you come to Duluth a lot and haven't tried this, strongly consider expanding your routine to inclued this place. read more

The customer service is the reason for this review and only two stars. We did try some of the baked goods but the selection was not what we saw online. I was disappointed to go into a bakery and have the staff show such little attention and enthusiasm. The cookie was decent but the croissant had seen better days. read more

Super friendly & prompt greeting! Delicious cookies too. I got the chocolate cookie with a chocolate chip one on top (not sure of the name) and an iced sugar cookie. Normally I'm not a huge fan of icing or chocolate (weird, I know) but they were great! Ya gotta stop in & give this place a try read more

Best baked goods in Duluth, MN. Period. Hands down. Do not bother going to any other bakery.

I'll keep it short and sweet: the blueberry scones?! A MUST! i'm from california and the north shore of lake superior has my heart- so duluth is a place i have been stopping by often. this bakery is lovely! a small local business i love supporting. the peach bars and yummy and the apple turnovers are delicious! 5 stars all around! i'll be back soon!! read more

Had a Cardamom Latte...my Finnish ancestors would be proud. Delicious. Subtly spicy. Tasted like growing up. Also, had a smoked fish and kimchi sandwich...my ancestors would be confused, not their palette... but it was mine! So good! Highly recommend read more

Love the monster cookies here and bread this place is amazing. A most place in duluthmn.

Stopped here for cookies on our way out of Duluth and loved it! We tried six of the varieties and all were great! Bakery is cute and staff was very friendly. Would definitely go back! read more

Great little bakery. I only get the thunder cookies which kick ass. Only thing that would be better is a white chocolate fudge thunder cookie...hint hint... Kids love it and my go to place before work. Great service as well. read more

Excellent bakery! Tried the thunder cookie, chocolate chip cookie, pain au chocolat, and one of the bars. Everything was so good. I can't wait to try the breads next! Staff was extremely welcoming and explained the various baked goods and made great recommendations. Will definitely be back! read more

I became a fan of this bakery many years ago, while a student at UMD. Great to see this legendary business still around. If you enjoy eating cookies, then you really should stop here. The best! Personally, I'm a fan of their "Thunder" cookies. (Whole wheat flour, chocolate chips, peanut butter... and the label says "adventure".) And the "Mocha Madness" cookies (Whole wheat flour, cocoa, chocolate chips, coffee... and "love"). But they also have wonderful breads as well. The cookies make great gifts..... or great for on the road too! "Don't think twice, it's alright"... read more

They make some sort of magic caramel walnut croissants that literally taste like heaven in the mouth. I think these are only available certain days/times, so call ahead. It will change your life. read more

Wow. This bakery shop looks very unassuming from the outside in the middle of a neighborhood on a one way street. It reminded me of a bodega. Once we were inside it still reminded me of a bodega. Lol. The treats are on display in large glass cases for all to see. My baby girl loves cookies and these cookies were huge. We got a couple of small peanut butter cookies, a couple of large chocolate chip, and a hybrid cookie of chocolate mixed with chocolate chip. All the cookies were on point and we all tore them things up. These cookies are organic, soft, and delicious. Come by and show this bakery love because they deserve every bit of it. If you come to Duluth and want some sweets for very reasonable prices; you've got to come here. We're going to drop by and get some more cookies before we leave town. read more

What a terrific bakery. Best bagels, so soft and tasty. The babka is almost too beautiful to eat. Friendly staff too. Stop by when in Duluth. read more

I was pleasantly surprised to come across this bakery on my recent trip to Duluth. The bakery itself has an inviting aesthetic. Every staff member I came across was friendly and welcoming. The baked goods were phenomenal and at an incredibly affordable price. They offer several options for those with food allergies. Everything was tasted fresh. This bakery shows creativity in their work, offering done very unique items. I was so impressed by the bars I had purchased that I went back right away the next day. This bakery was added to our "must visit" list for the next time we are in the area. read more

Expensive prices, but high quality products. Only one type of sugar free cookies available. Disappointing in this day and age of supposedly better healthy eating options. Sugar is a stimulant which kills people. read more

Absolutely amazing vegan options, wonderful staff, and superb environment. I would recommend wholeheartedly.
