Cinnamon Twisp Bakery

Hubby had the oatmeal chocolate chip
Cookie and I had the chocolate eclair. Both were excellent!!! However I think it's a bit pricey at $12.50 for 2 items.

I think the cinnamon twisps were worth the hype. Got mine heated and it was cinnamony, chewy, and not too sweet. My ham and cheese quiche was just so so and a little too expensive for the portion size imo. Tasted like it needed more seasoning. Not bad though! Heard the coffee was good. You get a discount if you bring your own mug. Got pretty busy around 8:45am on a Thursday. I think this is a must try place in Twisp.

Very nice selection of small bites, sandwiches, breads and pastries. Would totally visit next time we come to Twisp.

Baked goods taste so good in the North Cascades! There are a number of good bakeries, using local ingredients, and Cinnamon Twisp delivers. Loved the namesake Cinnamon Twisp - so much so we had it two mornings in a row! With the high demand, you will get a freshly baked warm one and it's sweet, gooey and flavorful. We also had one of their sandwiches - Hart's Pass Ham and Swiss: Swiss cheese, smoked ham, red onion, sprouts,
cucumbers, garlic aioli, sea salt and pepper. Great combination and also the bread was so good (Italian farm loaf). We also had this two days in a row :). Definitely stop by here when in the area!

pretty great pastries. Would definitely recommend the cinnamon twisp, their main thing, best warmed up. The quiche and artichoke stratas were tasty as well. Panini was amazing the first time I had it, a little less so the second time (a lot drier and less flavorful) but I'd give it another go. Muffin was a little dry but had a nice exterior. Drinks were way too sweet, would not recommend.

Stopped by after visiting the Twisp farmers market and was so delighted by this bakery. They have tons of food options ranging from sandwiches, pastries, and cookies etc. the cinnamon Twisp was a favorite. They also offer espresso, I got a latte but the milk was way too hot which sort of ruined it for me! Plenty of space inside and friendly staff made this a highlight.

Cute little shop in a cute little town with the most amazing namesake pastries - cinnamon twisps. When a bakery has a pastry called it's name you know you know it's going to be their best and these certainly delivered! A delicious twisted dough with spicy cinnamon, sticky honey, and hazelnut crumble - what's not to love. We will certainly be stopping here anytime we're in the area from now on just to get a cinnamon twist.

I also had a "egg"el (bagel breakfast sandwich) and these were very disappointing - just skip it and stick to pastries.

We stopped by here on the way home from our trip to Mazama. I only wish I lived closer so I could come back more often! Their baked goods are delicious. Especially the Zucchini bread. It was HEAVENLY. We bought a handful of pastry items and ate them throughout our drive. It was fun! The cinnamon twisps are very good too, along with their scones. I also enjoyed my vanilla latte. Can't wait to come back one day.

Wow...fast forward 5 years and I have returned to Cinnamon Twisp Bakery! You may be asking why someone like myself from South Florida has ventured back to this tiny coffee/bagel shop in the Pacific Northwest?

Well...this past summer I decided to redo North Cascades National Park as my first visit during the month of April 5 years ago was virtually unnavigable with snow everywhere! This time around I returned in the month of August. Lets just say the conditions at North Cascades were quite different, lol.

But...onto why I wasn't so thrilled coming back here to Cinnamon Twisp for this second time...

Granted...during this Pandemic of 2020 and so on...they still allowed for dine-in seating so you can relax and have your breakfast with a portion of the tables being off-limits.
And...it's still good that they open early at 7am for folks like myself who appreciate getting started at sunrise. This spot remains a viable option to grab comfort breakfast items.

I guess, just, my biggest issue with Cinnamon Twisp and a downgrade of 2 stars from my prior visit was just the prices.
Ugh...for 5 years later my same bagel with cream cheese and large hot chocolate cost like $8 with tax...and then with the tip jar staring me right at me...I just bumped the total to $10.
Really? A bagel and hot chocolate for $10? I don't know. Maybe back when prices were cheaper it didn't even occur to me or I didn't even second guess anything...but now it was so noticeably different.

I mean, seriously...when I looked up at the menu board and viewed the prices...I did a double take, lol. I can imagine lots of people seeing the prices and reacting like...OMG!

Prices for breakfast sandwiches ranged ranged between $6.50 - $7. Imagine if Cinnamon Twisp knew when I was younger I could eating 2 breakfast sandwiches in one sitting. Combine that with a drink and tip and back in the day it probably would have cost me $20 alone for breakfast. In my opinion...how much more, how much further can you raise prices?

Anyhow I was on vacation and I never let prices stand in the way of something I desire.
But honestly...I'm sure If I stopped at a gas station and grabbed a hot drink and breakfast sandwich I could get it for $5 - $6...half as much.

But...overall it felt nice during this pandemic to sit down at a table...take in the quiet morning ambiance here and feel normal for a little bit.

For this tiny town of Twisp, Washington...there's really not much elsewhere to go for a decent breakfast...especially for the "early bird" people. You're on the outskirts of the remote North Cascades...options are extremely limited.

Would I ever return to Cinnamon Twisp for a 3rd time? Probably not. But in the moment and after fond memories from my first visit...my expectations were high to return here. It would have been quite awkward and disappointing to look up at the menu board and then just walk out of the store.

Oh well...just a head's up for future customers eating at Cinnamon Twisp Bakery...prices nowadays will smack you right in the face.

Nice establishment in Twisp, WA. Coffee, hot chocolate excellent. Baked goods really delicious. They use tree nuts so if anyone has a peanut allergy, be SURE to ask if any amount of nuts are within. Very friendly and reasonable prices. Really liked this place.
