Lindstrom Bakery

A truly old fashioned bakery that boomers like me grew up with. I stopped on the way back from St. Croix Falls and I always will. I didn't need bread but there's plenty of it. I got the famous plain doughnuts and loved them. What I believe was an apple streudel was light and flakey but could use a little more filling. The cookies were perfect. My favorite were the white Swedish and the CCC. The spice in the oatmeal raisin was over powering so Basil got to enjoy those for himself. The service is friendly. They now take credit cards.

Donuts/cinnamon rolls/apple fritters are so yummy! Cute little bakery located in small town of Lindstrom. This location is open as of 4/24/23 but is up for sale by owner. Whomever takes over this location will hopefully keep the quality of the bakery items the same.

We stopped at the Lindstrom Bakery on the way to the casino. When I first walked in, I saw the crunchy cinnamon toast, and immediately thought of my Swedish grandfather. He loved that toast and so did I. The first bite brought me right back to those past moments. I also picked up some of the crispies with apple, which were also utterly amazing. I can't wait to go back again!

When I read that Food and Wine had rated the donuts at Lindstrom Bakery the best in MN, I had to add that to my list of places to try.We were heading up north to visit some friends which provided the perfect opportunity to grab some breakfast on the way. The bakery is easy to find and is right on the main street in town. We arrived just before 8:00am and there was already a line out the door with more people arriving.We ordered 2 glazed and 2 cinnamon sugar of their Scandinavian donuts. You might say what is a Scandinavian donut? Besides being made by a nice Scandinavian lady, they are in my opinion essentially a smaller version of an old fashioned donut. They are slightly crispy on the outside and cake like on the inside.Well in my opinion Food and Wine had too much wine and not enough donuts. This is a good donut. Hard to not like a donut. Just ask Homer Simpson. I just didn't love this donut. I have said that the apple fritter is my favorite donut. The old fashioned is my 2nd favorite donut due to the combination of textures. These donuts were a little smaller, I liked the cinnamon better than the glazed because of that slightly crunchy exterior. They do also have other donuts, breads and cookies available. Next time I'm in the area I'd be interested in trying some more items and probably some more donuts too.

Hidden Nordic Gem here! In a world where you buy cookies & pastries in supermarkets prepackaged by the dozens, this IS your place to come for the old fashioned pick each of your choices-as many as you want. My friendly wait staff answered my questions and bagged up ALL our treats, 3 bags for under $10. Whoa-you mean fun/different pastries for NOT $5 a piece? Yes, please.I couldn't pick out which flavor of biscotti to buy, so I got one of each (less than a dollar apiece). That was a mistake-I should have gotten at least TWO of EACH!

I'm from out of state and was looking for a nice Swedish bakery and stumbled upon Lindstrom bakery. I came at the end of the day so there weren't too many options but I ordered a few Swedish old fashioned donuts and a Swedish almond cookie. The GLAZED Swedish old fashioned donuts are THE BEST, especially when dipped in coffee!! I noticed some Limpa bread options and there seemed to be a variety of baked goods offered earlier in the day. The prices are also relatively cheap and you can get many donuts for a good price!!! The staff wore masks but the store is a little small so I would recommend not going in there with too many people due to COVID. When I was leaving the store a lot of people were eating outside to come in, so it must be very popular for the locals.

stopped there today, looking for cardamom rolls. they didn't have any. Scandinavian bakery? What we had was pretty good, not outstanding, so a star for that. If we had gone into the seating area before ordering, we probably would not have ordered at all. The dining area was absolutely FILTHY! Not just the tables. There was dirt everywhere, and spiderwebs in all the nooks and crannies. Likewise,the public restroom. Seriously, the dirtiest food establishment I've ever been in.

If you are looking for a decorated cake skip this place and go to Brinks. For $25 I got a white cake with thin layer of almond paste when I order a marble cake with chocolate frosting. A box cake/frosting would have been better than this.

I love this home town bakery. The best donuts and ginger snap cookies!! They also have very good cookies. And delicious home made bread!

New owners, but doing a nice jobs of keeping the old favorites, like ginger snaps and chocolate almond cookies. Will have to check if they will do the Christmas fruitcake like the previous owners. Nice casual little sitting area in the adjacent space.
