| - A locally-owned bakery, so you're starting out with 3 stars of course.
They have a great selection there - everything from dinner rolls to bagels to donuts to sandwich bread to all sorts of pastries. The pastries range from full-size to individual, and are mostly delicious, from what I've tried. They always have a great selection, and are always churning out more from the back (this is a serious bakery, and they provide lots of breads to local restaurants).
I always get the pastries, so I can't comment too much on the regular breads, but I know pastry prices are really good. You can get mini-strudels for like 50 or 60 cents, or a big danish for about $1.50.
You fix your own bag and then check out at the register, so it's pretty fast, but it does lack some of that charm you may get in a smaller place.
They are running specials all the time, especially on weekends when they lower the price on whatever is left over.
Ambience is like that of an actual commercial bakery, which is cool, but don't expect to sit down on the patio and eat your pastries while sipping a latte...definitely more of a to-go place.
Overall, I love Great Buns: selection, prices, taste, service, and location. They are definitely my go-to for special occasion breads!
