Fodor's Expert Review Roses Bakery & Cafe

Orcas Island
Modern American
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Set inside a cheerfully renovated former Eastsound fire station, this bustling café known for its house-baked breads and an impressive selection of artisanal gourmet groceries (from cheeses to fine wines) is also a fine spot for breakfast or lunch. The fare is French-Italian influenced but using local ingredients: try the croque monsieur or house-cured gravlax in the morning.
