The Blue Owl Bakery - Imperial

Expect a wait on a beautiful day! But there are plenty of nice places to sit and relax while you do! Plenty of delicious menu choices. Breakfast is served until 11:39 and starts at 10, so there's a short window for that in my opinion. Fun place to eat!

Parking was a little crazy on a Saturday but we were able to find a spot in the nice large lot across the street. It was a warmer day but we sat outside. They have a great deck/patio with fans. Our server was prompt and attentive. The menu had plenty of great options but wanted to save room for dessert so went with the egg salad sandwich. It was tasty! It was served with a side of chips and they easily swapped soup for cottage cheese. The dessert menu was equally hard to choose from with so many tasty options. I went with the apple crumb pie. It came out warmed slightly which was perfect. Only regret- not getting a scoop of ice cream. The carrot cake was great too. Would definitely return! Glad we finally went for a drive to give it a try. You should too!

Stopped in to get a cookie. Stood at bakery counter and was ignored. The two women behind the counter were talking. One stared at me and continued her conversation. Ended up leaving. Guess I saved money and calories.

My first memories of eating out are at the Blue Owl. I've been coming here since the early 90's as a little one with my mom, her friends and their daughters. The Blue Owl holds such a special place in my heart and is such a beautiful fixture in the Jefferson County Community. The building has such a rich history as well as the town of Kimmswick. You truly feel at home when you're at the Blue Owl. I never miss an opportunity to order breakfast or the Quiche of the day with their famous Cheddar Soup. You absolutely cannot miss out on their dessert. If you're full, visit the dessert counter on your way out and take something home. You'll thank yourself in a couple hours. Might I suggest the turtle cheesecake, carrot cake or my favorite even though I'm 34 years old...Dirt Cake. The staff here is always so kind and hard working. The Blue Owl will always have my heart.

First visit to the blue owl and it was great. My husband and I split orders, to start the white chicken chili and the beef vegetable. Both were great, but the chili really stood out as unique. The quiche was pretty standard, but the unexpected champion of the meal was the baked chicken salad. Who knew you could make a savory pie with chicken salad? The place is famous for the levee apple pie, and I can see why now! The mix of crust, caramel, cinnamon, and apple sang together. Pro tip- order a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it really set off the flavor profiles. There was a long wait, as expected, but they text you when your table is ready. This allowed us to explore the shops nearby and purchase some great Xmas gifts.
