Blue Hat Bakery & Bistro, located at Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts, offers a unique hot chocolate experience during their hot chocolate festival. The berry and dark chocolate flavor combination of the specialty hot chocolate is a delight, served hot, rich, and in a generous size. The sticky toffee pastry is another recommended item on the menu. Visitors have praised the cozy atmosphere and beautiful interior, with a lovely view of the harbor. The bakery is also known for its massive slices of quiche in the mornings, which are both delicious and good value. Although there have been some inconsistencies with the hot chocolate—some customers found it overly sweet, lukewarm, or with an overpowering berry flavor—the bakery remains a popular spot for many. It has also hosted intimate events, including a wedding dinner for 38 people, with excellent service and a beautiful venue space both inside and outside. The friendly staff and the chef's dedication contribute to a warm and welcoming experience, making it a favorite for visitors and locals alike.
