Over the past couple of years, I've had all manner of cakes, pastries and pies from Blackbird. In…read morefact, it's almost a given that when I encounter a tasty pie or pastry at a friend's house on Bainbridge, when I ask, it's almost a given that it came from Blackbird. They're expensive, but the old adage "you get what you pay for" definitely applies to Blackbird. You may pay more than you might somewhere else, but their quality is exceptional. Today I stopped by for one of their quiches--their spinach and goat cheese--and a lemon blueberry scone. Both were super yummy. I often get one of their chais too, which are also quite tasty (and not at all dry, a common problem with scones). Having Blackbird downtown makes it quite convenient to just stop by while on the way to elsewhere. But sometimes it can be a destination if...you can find seating, which is at a premium most of the day.

After being a BI resident and then moving away I was so excited to make time to stop by Blackbird…read more I had told several friends on the island that I was looking forward to stopping by the bakery and I was surprised to find they had lost their love for it. I figured it was due to taking it for granted... ...I was mistaken. Day one of our trip we ordered several items and none of them were very good at all. We ended up giving items away and thought maybe the bakery was just having an off day. The staff seemed bothered by having to take our order but hey- we all have tough days! Well...day two of our trip we decide to prioritize stopping by again. After a local saw us waiting 30 minutes for our toast and jam she told us to go ask and that "sometimes the staff can get really overwhelmed ". So my daughter stood in line a second time and was told that the employee heard we wanted it to go so it had been sitting at the end of the counter the whole time. We specified we wanted to eat it inside. We asked kindly if they could fix the mistake and we were happy to wait. To my genuine surprise the employee with the pink hair opened the bag of toast, plopped our three orders on trays along with the plastic to go tiny jams and dropped them on our table with the most dismissive uncaring attitude I've seen. You could get more care at a convenient store. We thought we'd try to eat them anyway and the pieces were cold and hard. I asked her about them and her response was "well you asked for to go". Not only does she seem incapable of doing her job basics but as an employer I'm shocked she is granted the simple tasks of serving toast in the first place. She made sure to put plenty of energy into gossiping with her co worker about her irritation with us. We have strong ties on the island still and come back often but we will gladly skip the visit here in the future. I certainly hope these staff members get some basic skills in customer service for their own future.

Definitely worth the hassle of finding.

While the storefront is essentially a coffee stand, there is seating available right outside the store which is great when the weather is nice. In addition to being a convenient place to stop for coffee while shopping at Town & Country, drink prices are very reasonable and it is not too crowded. The waiting time for drinks could be faster though. Nevertheless, if you are looking for a drink while visiting the main stretch of Downtown Bainbridge, I would recommend this spot.

The owners and managers truly don't give a crap. This is literally the worst McDonald's location in Kitsap!!! Everyone here agrees. Nothing but attitude and trash everywhere. Bathrooms are not clean, homeless harass you as you walk in. Nothing but a health and safety hazard. Even the inner city Bremerton locations are better than this one. Every time I've been here, it's been a huge wait for no reason. Today's order was no exception. When I walked in, no one was in the drive thru, yet they prioritized every new order in the drive thru over my mobile order. Employees tried to hide behind the wall, when I asked for help. I saw every car pull up and drive thru. Completely crazy! I was there over 30 minutes waiting on a mobile order for a medium fries and small McFlurry. When the guy finally did do my McFlurry, it looked like less than half the cup and looked strange. Who knows what he did to it. I threw away everything...so disgusting! There were no managers anywhere! Very poorly managed store. This has been every experience for me...employees just talking to themselves and laughing at customers. The food is always cold and the quality is awful! Save your money. Drive a little further to the Poulsbo location which is way better. Don't come here!
