Third Coast Bakery - Traverse City

There were 6 vegan donut options when we went. They have vegan cinnamon rolls, cookies, brownie bars, etc. They also have cherry pies! Those run out quick, so if you want one, get there early.

Large variety of vegan baked goods that were very flavorful. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable as well about what was vegan.

So glad to have so many vegan options! Enjoyed cherry crumb pie, they were out of a lot of things which I would have liked to try, including the bagels (to be fair, it was 4th of July weekend). Everything is gluten free and vegan unless clearly labeled otherwise.

Who would've known you could get such delicious GF and vegan baked goods and good coffee in Northern Michigan?! It's a good thing I don't live here otherwise I'd have a hard time not visiting every single day to sample their big selection of treats. I didn't try the bagel melts but they look great for breakfast.

Third Coast Bakery is the best bakery in Traverse City. In fact, I would say it is a strong contender for best bakery in the state of Michigan. It is fantastic. Being its own self-standing building, Third Coast Bakery can morph and ebb to its needs. They have a large backroom to bake in and even a side viewing area where, if you are lucky, you can watch the master bakers decorate cakes. There is also ample parking and outdoor seating to enjoy your treats. Speaking of the treats, there are treats a plenty. Third Coast offers wide selection of vegan goods, but their highlight are their vegan donuts. In my most recent visit, they were featuring Girl Scout cookie inspired donuts. My favorite was the Thin Mint donut, which comprised of double dark chocolate and a peppermint creme under the outermost chocolate frosting. I did not know you could even make this version of cake, frosting, and creme vegan and this creamy and this tasty. Every time I come to visit Traverse City I make sure to stop at Third Coast Bakery. And every time they blow me away with how creative and imaginative their pastries are while still being vegan. This is a MUST visit place in Traverse City, and a great proof to bring to your friends to happily pronounce, See! Vegan can be delicious!
