Matt Thomas: As the previous reviewer said, the cinnamon roll is a must. It has these slivers of orange on top that give it a unique sweetness. The Earl Grey loaf was great too. A little pricey but it's OTR.
Alex Bowman: cinnamon rolls are a must, then level up with a slice of the matcha loaf 🍵🍞
Taylor E: The cinnamon roll, coffee cake, and salty chocolate chip cookies are great classics if you're new to Brown Bear. Beyond that, every single thing they make is delicious! Check Instagram for specials.
