Northern Lights Bakery And Coffee — Restaurant in Corolla

Absolutely fantastic place! Coffee is delicious and the pastries and donuts are fresh and outstanding. The people are nice and welcoming. They're efficient without ever making you feel rushed even during their busiest time. The atmosphere is welcoming and the outdoor seating area and surrounding shops and miniature golf course are just adorable!

I strongly believe that the energy of a business and the people behind the counter are what make or break a place most of the time and this place has just nailed it! They all seem to truly enjoy what they are doing! We have stopped in for donuts, pastries, and coffee every morning this week and will continue to do so for the rest of the week. We will stop in tomorrow for our regular coffee and breakfast order and I think we'll grab a pie and a couple of other treats for dessert as well.

Hands down the BEST bakery in the Outer Banks. First off, the cutest little shop and the employees are such sweethearts. Second, the food is phenomenal. My favorite item has to be the Apple Fritter and the Sausage Gravy Biscuits. Their donuts are fresh and not overpowering in the flavors. The cinnamon rolls are decadent and the size of your head. Their savory items from sandwiches to rolls are amazing. This place can take what's left of my entire bank account it is that amazing. I can't wait to come back next year!

2025 Review: Still absolutely love this place. If I could work here I would. It's a tradition at this point to come in for breakfast and a little treat. My mom and I tried the Vietnamese coffee this time and it became an obsession. We are hooked now and every other coffee place in town doesn't...
