Lindström Bakery

Wonderful donuts and baked goods. Apple crisp is spectacular!

Me: "What makes them Swedish donuts? Owner: "I am Swedish and I made the donuts".

This is a lovely spot with charm and personality. The sweets are a delight but bring cash as they do not take credit card.

My favorite bakery and so lucky to have them in my backyard! Their glazed donuts are perfect, love their old fashioned ones too.

Great donuts and cookies and cinnamon toast. Nice people. Sooooo many cookies

If for no other reason, you stop in Lindstrom on your way to Taylors Falls or back, you have to try these donuts. They’re fresh, delicious, and have probably been made the same way for several decades. Also as a bonus, you can see the water tower shaped like a Swedish coffee pot right above you. The donuts are incredibly priced as well, very reasonable for how quality they are in texture and flavor. Don’t miss out on these treasures!

After seeing reviews from a FB group I belong to and looking at Google and TripAdvisor reviews I decided to try this bakery. Sorry but I don't get it. Individuals working the counter definitely were not friendly. No greeting or can I help you whatsoever. Purchased an assortment of donuts, pastries and cookies. They didn't look appetizing but thought maybe they taste better then they look. Unfortunately
that was not the case. The filled donuts had little filling and sparse frosting on top. The flavor was so so. The cinnamon swirl pastry had no cinnamon taste to it. The cookies were hard and one flavor so bad, I threw it away. Definitely will not bother stopping here again.

First time visit we bought a couple of each of the Scandinavian donuts (plain, glazed, and sugar sprinkled) and went outside to enjoy them. We enjoyed them so much we went right back in to buy more to take home to family! YUM!

My dear friend shared with me one of her all-time favorite places as we were driving north from St Paul to Franconia Sculpture Park.

We were fortunate to get the last two old fashioned donuts of the day !

I stopped going in here due to the fact that the old lady and guy always working were always so rude. Even though they had wonderful sweets, it still wasn't worth the bad service.
My fiancé picked up some Donuts this morning and said the new owners are much friendlier! This means I can start visiting again. 🙂
He said everything else was the same.
Hopfully they plan to update/remodel to inside someday.

Best cookies around fresh donuts you have to stop
