This is an absolute must visit if you are in Duluth! I'm new to town and every time I stop in I find something new to LOVE! Their croutons are a hidden gem and must buy. The cookies are out of this world and of course the caramel croissant and scones are amazing. I can't imagine buying something that isn't delicious from this place...employee owned and everything is made with LOVE. read more

They now take credit cards and have a couple treats for those who are gluten intollerant or avoiding gluten(not certified gf).

Everything is SUPER fresh. You know when you eat something and you just know it's been made with fresh ingredients? This is that. You can also tell everything is homemade - nothing mass produced. So so good - we will definitely be back for the sweet treats and for the delicious loaves of bread! read more

Made with the finest ingredients and love. Thank you to talented bakers and staff for an exceptional bakery experience. Sourdough and Old World rye bread are magical. Scones with fresh fruit, ambrosia. Chocolate croissants make me weep with joy. Duluth, you are a great town with the privilege of having this culinary jewel in your crown. See you again soon! read more

Positively 3rd Street Bakery - Scone, chocolate croissant, goddess bar & brownie. Oh my! - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Minnesota

This bakery is doing everything right about operating through the pandemic. Their many options for bread are ALL good. All of their cookies are delicious. For Mother's Day they had flourless chocolate cake in the shape of a heart! How much more cute can you get? read more

I always free welcome at 3rd Street. The bakers are friendly and like to catch up. The croissants are the best in town, especially the chocolate ones. And the variety of cookies is great - there are about 15 different kinds. I can always find something depending on my mood. I appreciate the beliefs of 3rd Street, too. It makes me proud of the Hillside neighborhood to see a business that doesn't just want profits. 3rd Street openly and actively supports justice for people misserved by our systems. read more

I had bought this bakeries goods before at other places andI have never had a bad experience with their food, it has always been good. However all of the times I have gone into the store the person there was always short and impatient. I wouldn't go into the business again I will just continue to buy their products elsewhere. read more

The best granola I've ever had. You need to try it. Make your own parfait and enjoy every bite.

Five stars for funky fastidiously freakin good sweets. I love how the ingredients are shown transparently. So many organic options. Twice as much flavor and a little less guilt. The options are so creative and many items you will never find anywhere else. I loved it!! read more

Have not had a good experience recently with this bakery. Goes bad way too quickly before I can finish most of the bread loves. Can not recommend :( read more

Best bread and cookies in town! They are always so nice and helpful when I stop in, with great suggestions every time! They also have some great seasonal items and flavors. Loving the cranberry bars this fall! read more

Best cookies you will ever have in your life, guaranteed! The thunder cookie is a total classic, and my absolute favorite. Such a cute little neighborhood spot, the only trouble I've had with this bakery is that there isn't always the best options for parking, but the walk to the bakery is worth it for the deliciousness you will experience upon arrival! read more

Thanks for the carrot cake for my wedding. Y'all. Shout out Cody. These ppl know how to make a cake. That's really all I have to say about that. Here's some heart emojis . Hopefully that reads on your device. read more

Wasn't a fan. Prices didn't match up to quality at all. Wouldn't recommend. Should've went to the grocery store up the street.

Absolutely LOVE Positively 3rd Street Bakery! Best cookies in town, hands down. I've tried half a dozen different kinds of cookies, and a couple different bars--haven't met one I didn't like. My faves are the Mocha Madness and Monkey cookies, also the Goddess Bars. And the staff is super nice too. read more

Positively 3rd Street Bakery - Mocha Madness cookie! (Can't remember what the other one was, but it was good!) - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Minnesota

Best chocolate croissants I've ever had! Made fresh daily and so delicious! 10/10 would recommend trying this place out.

This is a tiny little shop with lots to offer! I had a blueberry ginger scone that was tasty, and probably the best almond croissant I've ever had. Their chocolate chip cookies weren't bad either. Great place for pastries! read more

Great bakery. Had the garlic bread plus three other loaves. Cookie samples were awesome. Friendly helpful service.

Cute place, free coffee for customers, kind staff. They only sell baked goods, honey, and t-shirts, but have a wide-ish variety of each, given the store's size. read more

Everything looked delicious! I tried a peach scone, a blueberry scone, and a ginger cookie. Just wonderful! It was hard to make a choice, and if we had been in town longer I think I would have tried the croissants next, but there were so many options. Yum! read more

If you can make it past the cookie cases without eating all of them, check out their bagels! This everything bagel I'm eating right now is everything you need in the world! Always a highlight of our trips up north read more

Just moved to Duluth and read strong reviews for this bakery. Excellent sourdough bread, croissants and cookies. Nice to have this bakery in my new hometown. Great staff and return patrons I spoke to while waiting in line were also super stoked on this bakery. Give them your requests. They will bake breads according to your tastes with a few days notice. Super accommodating read more

Yes! Yes yes! We were Fresh outta Jay Cooke on a rainy Saturday when we desperately yelped up this fine bakery and will never forget how fortunate we felt. And still feel. Baked good by bakers who care about texture and yeasty flavor. Not some corporate idea of A cinnamon roll. The Service was excellent. choices from sourdough bread to cookies made our cold hungry bodies quick to decide. There seemed so many fine options. Wish I lived near enough to frequent it often. Lucky you if you do or if you simply happen by. read more

This small quiant bakery is the one of the best places in town to get baked goods. Always fresh. I make a habit to get a loaf of sourdough there weekly. Delicous cookies and pastries too which come in a in wide variety of unique recipes! Thunder cookies are my favorites. Perfect little neighborhood store. Very friendly staff. Prices are very reasonable. They have gluten friendly options here. Ask for a punch card to earn a free loaf. A must stop if you're passing by! read more

Cute little shop and great prices. They're chocolate chip chookies are amazing, im sold with anything that has pecans. They're croissants are amazing as well. They're blueberry scones looked Devine! Their goddess bar was good as well. They also have homemade baked goods like bread and bagels. I wanted to buy SO much. Had to contain myself. But I'll be back! read more

I lived a few blocks away for two years and I've never had a bad experience whenever I stopped by this wonderful bakery. Their customer service is top notch, and their sourdough bread, chocolate croissants, and apple turnovers are second to none. Highly recommended! read more

On a trip up from the Twin Cities found this gem of a bakery. Baked goods from scratch with organic ingredients make this bakery a 10, and exceeds the flavor and quality of many bakeries in the cities!! read more

Ordered their Bakers Against Racism cake and it was so good and such a great way to donate to a local organization! This bakery is a true gem of Duluth and they are truly a positive business in the community that focuses on the community!!! Thankful for them and their delicious babka! read more

This is a wonderful bakery! I ALWAYS pick up something here when I am in Duluth, and I have NEVER been disappointed! The bakery is great, and the staff is friendly. Even better, they are a bakery with a conscience. When COVID hit, they gave away bread and granola packages to families who were missing their school lunches. POSITIVELY the best bakery in Duluth! read more

Everyone here is so kind and communicative. The bakes are amazing and flavorful. All at a great price to support a wonderful business. I had the focaccia, sourdough, and cheddar jalapeño loaves along with the thunder cookies. Absolutely amazing. Thankfully I live in the area so I can keep coming back! I highly recommend calling ahead to order though! Everything is so good it sells out quickly. Thank you!! read more

Great community institution serving the hillside. Delicious cookies, pastries, and bread, all from scratch. Worker-owner and community-forward: they provided free lunches during the beginning of COVID lockdown, as well as ongoing donation collection and transportation to the Minnesota communities most affected by COVID, civil unrest, and homelessness. A bakery full of real sweethearts. read more

Positively 3rd, you deserve 10 stars over and over. Everyone there is a part-owner, and everyone there has a love and passion for baking and making a small difference in their customers' lives. I thankfully discovered 3rd Street Bakery years ago when I was at UMD, and ever since it is one of the highlights of my days and my weeks when I am able to visit this quaint bakery. Offering healthy, indulgent, perfectly cooked, and tasty breads, treats, and granola, this is a one-stop shop for your bakery needs. All their ingredients are wholesome and simple. My favorite bread loaf here is the Wild Rice Bread. Among the others, I am also a fan of the Whole Wheat, Sunflower, Cracked Wheat, Spelt, Flax, Orange Date, and the 8-Grain. Pumpkin is seasonal, but make sure you get some when you see it. I have tried most of the granola and they are amazing. It is hard to find granola in traditional grocery stores that doesn't have refined sugars, but here at 3rd Street their granola is simple and wholesome and they use honey or maple syrup to sweeten most of their granola. The cookies!!! YUM! Crazy PM's, Dan's Macaroonies (I always get one of these; totally healthy, a little gooey, and 100 percent delicious), Jeff Browns, Ginger, Goddess Bar (wow), and more. They've got four muffins, and having tried them all, the Morning Glory and Wild Banana are my favorite (they have little gems of goodies hidden throughout). I don't know that I have ever been disappointed by anything, and they usually have samples out for tasting. You feel the love as soon as you walk in the door, and the aroma is addicting and distinctive. I hope this local bakery remains supported by the community and keeps thriving in Duluth for years and years to come. I can't give enough praise about this place, but if you are ever in the area (or even if you aren't; make a special trip), come in and stock up on some bread and pick up a treat or two! Just look for the bright colored "house" that stands out at the corner of 3rd and 12th. Make sure to bring cash for all the goodies. read more

This establishment is all sorts of good. The cookies are bomb, the building is cute, they are diet restriction conscious, they use pure ingredients, prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly. Normally I would pass up a simple sugar cookie but these are really good. Everyone seems to love the Thunder Cookies best but my favorites are the Dynamite Delights. Make sure to bring some cash because they do not accept credit cards. read more

For an organic, natural bakery, this is good. For an overall bakery, this is kinda meh. There weren't cakes or pastries or anything I was expecting when I walked in. There were cookies and bars and muffins. I was very disappointed since I was looking for something else. That being said, I would recommend the skid marks (cookies). They were delish. Everything else we got was OK, but not over-the-top good. One thing I HATED was the cranberry bars. They were all sour and no sweet. It was hard to even eat it. read more

Last year I was at Tom's Logging camp and had a great sandwich made with the cranberry wild rice bread and found out that the bread came from this bakery... did not get a chance to stop by the bakery to pick me up a few loaves... but it is in my plans of " must do's" when I visit Duluth in June... wish they had the bakery near me in Faribault, Mn. read more

This is my new favorite place. Delicious cookies and breads made with all organic ingredients. Awesome vegan choices, that are soo tasty!! The staff is very friendly and willing to help and talk about their products and ingredients. Be careful, once you try it, you'll be addicted! read more

This has been one of the best bakeries I've discovered in America. It's a local co-op from my understanding vet sources all products locally. You get unbelievably cheap prices for muffins jam-packed with blueberries nuts Etc for less than five bucks. The only downfall is this place is making me fat. Also they sell honey in bulk which is perfect for everything. read more

One of my favorite places in Duluth. I routinely stop in to grab a cookie or ten. Bread and bagels are great too. Great prices and the staff is amazing too. read more

Try the Date Bar!! 3rd street bakery is a little secret of Duluth. If you need a delicious cookie or bagel this is the place!

I am new to Duluth and make it a habit to stop once per week for blueberry scones, ww pizza crust, cranberry wild rice bread and oatmeal sesame buns. Worth the price. I will pass on the cookies moving forward as they are undercooked in my opinion and seem a bit raw in the center- I know many folks enjoy them that way. read more
