I can't believe no one has reviewed this place yet on Yelp!! This bakery is nothing short of…read moreamazing! It's a French bakery on Grand Manan island and is very popular with both locals and tourists alike. As soon as the ferry docked we drove straight over. Got there on a Tuesday morning a bit after 11 and the line was already five people deep. The smell as you walk in...heavenly!! They sell an assortment of freshly baked bread and pastries. By the time I arrived the regular croissants were already sold out. There was still quite a lot of selection though. I went a bit crazy and got a bunch of stuff. Hey.. I'm on vacation!! :) We got the Saint John river bread which is their bestseller and it was delicious. The best way I can describe it is it looks like a round sourdough loaf but it's multigrain deliciousness. The outside crust just the right amount of crunch and the inside soft and warm just out of the oven! We went down to the local grocery store and picked up a couple different cheeses to go with the bread. What a great lunch! I also got the following which I had later for snack and dinner: -spinach and feta pastry: so good!! The filling reminded me a bit of spanakopita but the pastry dough was flaky and crunchy. -egg and cream cheese pastry: same type of dough as above but the filling tasted like a western omelette. -chocolate croissant: amazing!! Just like the ones I had in Paris!! The chocolate to dough ratio was just right!! -apple turnover: my husband declared this the best he's ever had! The pastry so flaky and the filling not overly sweet. So we went back an hour before closing and they pretty much had sold out of everything but had some macaroons and ginger cookies left. We got some cookies for the ferry ride back and they also impressed us! Soft and not too sweet and the ginger flavour not overpowering. I'm so glad we found this bakery. It's a legit French bakery and brings me right back to when I travelled in France. This place should be an absolute must for anyone traveling to Grand Manan!

We stopped there because it was early and I needed more coffee. The baked treats, though, looked way too tempting to stop with coffee. Even though we hadn't intended to get baked goods, we ended up buying a triple-chocolate brownie, a pecan bar, and the most delicious peanut butter and chocolate treat I ever ate. Some of the older reviews complain about the owner being rude, but maybe that was a previous owner? We found him charming and helpful.

After staring for a good 10 minutes, I decided on the strawberry daiquiri. The cake was soft with bits of strawberries. The frosting wasn't too sweet and went perfect with the cake. It was probably one of the best cupcakes I ever had. I was a bit disappointed that I had to limit myself to one cupcake (I've been eating since the cruise started). They did have a mini cupcake sampler set that had a lot of their flavors. It also looks like they do cakes too. It was a very cute shop with fun and adorable decoration.
