I recently had the pleasure of revisiting my favorite bakery of all time. BCB is truly the most incredible bakery I have ever experienced. It constantly impresses with its delectable baked goods and outstanding service. The outside of the building is quite unassuming, but once you step inside you're in for a real treat. BCB always has a great selection of sweet and savory items. They typically have meat pies and a variety of different croissants, danishes, and original creations. Today, we had the wild blueberry danish, almond croissant, and sausage roll. The danish and croissant were perfectly sweet, buttery, and flakey. These pastries, as well as the Susie which was unfortunately unavailable today, are easily some of our favorite items to get at BCB. The sausage roll was a nice savory breakfast option and definitely one of the best I've ever had. If you're looking for a sign to stop by BCB, this is it. There's something here for everyone, and you won't regret it! Be sure to come early because they sell out of their popular items quick.

There are so many positive things to say about this bakery! Simply put, everything is amazing from the pastries to the meals to the ownership… I’ve never had a bad experience. I think my favorites so far have been the cronuts and the meat pie.

Food is good and portions are large so come hungry. Staff has always been friendly enough. My only complaint is the hours. Maybe one more week day or stay open a little longer on the days they are open.

(Caveat, got there close to closing time as they were prepping for holiday rush, so will go back next time I’m home for a follow up review).Got there and unfortunately the only thing left was chocolate walnut cookies, even though it was more than an hour before posted closing time. The cookie itself was amazing, but quite a bit pricier than I expected. The bakery had a old school, not-so-polished aesthetic which is great when it’s filled to the brim with people and baked good options, but kinda gave it a ghost town feel with it being just me and the single type of cookies. The cookies were definitely fire enough to come back and give it another go.
