This is one of my favorite places to get a treat. We've been here a couple times and they haven't disappointed us yet. We've only really tried the more famous items like the Viking donut, which is a huge, flaky, fluffy chocolate covered mass of goodness. The Viking cup, which is a cinnamon roll lover's dream, in that, it's a cinnamon roll that has taken on the shape of a small volcano and is FULL of frosting. We like to take them home, and microwave them for about 20 seconds to get the frosting nice and hot. The pecan roll reminds me of my Great Grandmother's home made pull apart. This is such a unique place, and we'd probably come here a lot more if it were closer. We plan on trying other items on the menu like the cookies and bread varieties as well. It gets super busy, well, pretty much all the time, so be prepared to wait. I was lucky enough to come in on a Monday afternoon and didn't have to wait. The prices here are very good, especially considering the quality and size of the products. I've never left there feeling like I spent too much. I also appreciate that they stay open a bit later than most bakeries in the area if you're craving a pastry and it's after noon, you'd be hard pressed to find anything better than this place that's still open. There's a very good sized, free parking lot just up the street as well that is easily...

Read moreYou know you go to a really cute bakery that has a display case FULL of treats that look mouthwatering but once you purchase one and take your first bite and it's so not that wonderful... well that is not the case here!!! Yay!
I don't care where you are in the Seattle vicinity, but you MUST make a pitstop, or 10, at this lovely family owned and operated bakery! It's truly one of the very best I've ever had. Every freaking item they offer in their display cases both in the window and in the store are ALL beautiful to look at AND freaking amazingly delicious!! Bought a variety 6 box pastry box filled with viking donuts the size of a grown man's head, cream cheese icing filled viking cup, a giant doughboy, butter horn, a snail pastry and a swedish almond pastry to name a few! Their cookies are pure perfection and their butter cookies was still chewy even 2 days after!
Staff is so sweet and really helpful and loved that each of them had their own favorites to recommend as well. We got lucky this visit too because the line was only 4 people deep but I was told once the summer and holidays come around, the line takes up the block and then some! Regardless, it's worth the wait on line and worth visiting over...
