Absolutely AMAZING strawberry shortcake muffins, pumpkin spice, and lots of other interesting flavors as well as the old favorites (and they are huge!) However, we'll be staying in Brewster this year and I'm wondering if anyone can recommend some places for fabulous morning baked goods in Brewster - muffins, scones, etc - great coffee would be a plus too! Thanks Tue Aug 10 20:26:42 -0700 2004 0 Mo 1 863062 There is a great coffee/ice cream/bake shop in Orleans called The Chocolate Sparrow on Route 6A. Their coffee is wonderful and their baked goods look yummy! Orleans is just a short drive from Brewster. Wed Aug 11 07:38:15 -0700 2004 863055 0 Lily 2 863112 Just wanted to mention that there's "Hot Chocolate Sparrow" in Orleans located at 5 Old Colony Way. "Chocolate Sparrow" is located in Eastham on rte 6 in a strip shopping center going toward P'town on the left. The Sparrow in Eastham is mainly candy. The Sparrow in Orleans has lots of specialty coffee drinks, baked goods, and candy. The Orleans Sparrow is a little tricky to find. Do a search on map quest since their website I've linked below unfortunately has no directions.

It was on the corner of 28 (main ?) and something. Diagonally across from what used to be the Rexford Restaurant, near the Melrose Inn (not too useful I know, but it's been a while since there). If no muffins try their Melt-A-Aways - heavenly ! Back in the day - you'd find the place by the line down the street in the early morning.

He loves the french breakfast muffins and i love the scones. they are only open thurs to sun 8 to 4. enjoy ann Wed Aug 11 13:03:39 -0700 2004 863055 0 ann 1 863091 Thanks for the responses - Ann, your's is especially helpful - we are be staying at Ocean Edge! FYI - as of last summer, Bonnat's in Harwich was still going strong and I second the rec on the melt-a-ways! Heaven! (they also have wonderful rasberry pancakes in the restaurant) Wed Aug 11 17:47:43 -0700 2004 863055 0 Mo 1 863113 The Cottage Street Bakery in Orleans has delicious baked goods and is known for their specialty muffin, "Dirt Bombs" (French Doughnut Puff) a cinammon-and-sugar-covered muffin, but they have a lot of other muffin varieties as well. It's at 5 Cottage Street, a little difficult to find, off rte. 28 near the rotary. Try doing a mapquest search to find it. I've linked their website below Link: http://www.cottagestreetbakery.com/ Image: http://www.cottagestreetbakery.com/images/bookcover.jpg Thu Aug 12 11:08:10 -0700 2004 863055 0 Sandi H. 1 863191 This past week we found a place on 6A in Orleans called The Hole that had super muffins and donuts; not to mention delicious omelets and breakfast sandwiches. The portions were huge; the ingredients fresh; and everything came out piping hot. Our party of six ate for $41 which included a dozen donuts to go. Worth a try for any breakfast lover!
