Located at
113 East Main Street in Jamestown, Blue House Bakery offers coffee drinks,
baked goods, and ice cream. Offerings rotate regularly, and made-to-order custom
cakes are available.
Blessed
with a personal touch and lacking the boisterous atmosphere of many a java den,
this azure establishment beside Potent Potables may be the most inviting
coffeeshop/bakery in the area. The owner, Bridgid, is both a kind person and a
skilled baker: I’ve tried mini-pies, cupcakes, cookies, and more, and most have
been hits. The Apple Delight, an apple streusel/cinnamon roll mashup, is
especially good when warm. The selection of coffee drinks is small, but the
weekly specials (which recently included a gingerbread white mocha) are usually
promising. The ambiance also helps to set Blue House apart. Not only is the
building deceptively spacious, but its rooms are quiet, comfortable, and homey.
Admittedly,
the location and the dearth of competition score Blue House some points by default,
but even if it were located in Greensboro instead of Jamestown, it would be a
winning choice for a coffee or a baked good.
