I went to Bread Basket with some of my work friends for lunch today and I am BLOWN AWAY! I haven't found a good bread bakery around here- until now. First and foremost- their bread selection is AWESOME! I don't understand the reviews below that people complained there wasn't enough diversity among the bread types. They had all sorts! I plan to go back soon and get some bread. Also, their cookies, pastries, and muffins were near the cash register and looked scrumptious.
I had a roast beef sandwich. It was piled high with roast beef, fresh green lettuce mix, tomato, mustard all on delicious nine-grain bread. My friend got half of my sandwich and I got the other half of hers which was the pastrami. It was equally amazing. They have a deal if you buy a sandwich you get iced tea or a pastry for 99 cents extra. I opted for both and will have my amazing looking raspberry scone for breakfast tomorrow. It is a very small space so if you want a table inside plan accordingly and know you might have to wait.
There was one man and one woman working there- they were very nice and accommodating. One of the staff members knew this was our first time into Bread Basket and gave us free sugar cookies! Let me just tell you when I bit into it- I thought I died and went into cookie heaven. It was lightly iced, moist (for a cookie), and "melted in your mouth" so to speak. It was decadent. I will definitely be picking up sugar cookies when I come back for bread. It is so close to my work too..this could be very bad for my wallet but amazing for Bread Basket. I can't wait to take friends soon!
