Black Walnut Bakery

Exceptional bakery easily top 3 in Minneapolis. Rivals anything I've had in Paris and almost as good as Tartine in SF. The Focaccia is an underrated marvel (sadly only available on weekends though).

Our first visit was for takeout, and we instantly regretted not ordering more. The flavors were so fresh, and everything embodied what pastry perfection should be. Delicious, beautifully made, and very reasonably priced. We’ll absolutely be back whenever we’re in MN again

I came here on a Sunday morning 10 minutes before opening and there was already a line, and for good reason! The pastries here are incredible and i love the wide variety of options. This was my first time coming here and i got the chocolate banana croissant, potato and leek croissant, passionfruit and raspberry kouign amann, and the gingersnap banana pudding. All of them were wonderful. My favorite was definitely the potato leek croissant, as savory pastries are my weakness! I loved trying a kouign amann that had a twist to it, the passionfruit and raspberry really made it unique. I definitely will be coming back again.

Amazing pastries and great coffee! The raspberry pistachio croissant was phenomenal.

Do not get the tuna melt. I expected a delicious slightly oversized sandwich for the hefty $15 price tag but instead received a regular sandwich with as much tuna as you would expect mayonnaise (a teaspoon spread as thin as possible). I wonder if they flew in and gutted the fish themselves to account for this. I am seriously so surprised. It tasted like toasted bread with cheese (and tomato if it was lucky enough to be the middle two bites). They should advertise this as a vegetarian sandwich. Spent $50 here and probably would not come back. I did enjoy the chocolate banana croissant. Matcha was very milky, not a strong matcha taste.

It‘s usually a good sign to find a line of people waiting outside to get in, hence it was in this case too. Worth every second and I would even wait an hour to enter this pastry heaven, inna good friend‘s neighborhood (lucky him). Had and tried many good things in the world, but this gem still had some culinary treasures to hide. Absolutely delicious, sweet and savory, both were great. Unfortunately I ran in to this place on my final day, before heading back east over the big pond again, but I already know where to pop up next time I’m in the twin cities.

This is a very cool little spot. We need to keep all these shops open and thriving! Gorgeous surroundings and great menu/drinks. I sat for a long time just watching out to Hennepin Ave. Get a sip and a nosh for a break. It's worth it.

This is one of the best (if not THE best) bakeries in the twin cities. If you can get a table, they have great ambience too. I love this place!!!

Great food and coffee, you know you're at a great place when the line is all the way out on the street.

Such a cute cafe just by the roadside. Just make sure you are there early( by the afternoon, they already ran out of most bakery stuffs 😭) I mean it makes sense because they have short hours of operation! Beautiful place if you want to explore local bakery and cafes
