Nestled in Takoma Park, Barely a Bakery offers a blend of delicious pastries and hearty sandwiches, though opinions on its offerings vary widely. While some lament the high prices and inconsistently prepared items, others praise the fresh ingredients and standout dishes like their turkey sandwich and blueberry pastries. The atmosphere is cozy, making it a popular stop for locals and cyclists alike. Many appreciate the welcoming staff and inviting decor, despite occasional service delays. For those seeking flavorful, freshly baked goods and substantial sandwiches, this establishment can be a hit, but perhaps with a few adjustments, it could shine even brighter.
