Tastiest turkey sandwich in town

by bobdog29

I just moved to the Avenues and tried this place for lunch. The turkey brie and apple sandwich is by far the best turkey sandwich I've ever had. Fresh roasted turkey (not slimy deli meat) and amazing bread and it was HUGE! We tried a fruit tart and cookie for dessert, both were really good. The review below about the place across from Carol's Pastry (which is in Sugarhouse) being dirty must be about some other bakery, Paradise Bakery in Sugarhouse maybe (?) because it's clean, the waitstaff was friendly and helpful with suggestions and the atmosphere was pleasant. The breakfast menu looks fantastic, I can't wait to try it out for brunch this weekend. I highly recommend the Aves Bakery!

Breakfast of Champions

by RiverRio

Great food at a reasonable price. Try the weekend brunch, you wont regret it. Come hungry, but be patient as the space is limited. There isn't much of a waiting area, so you should be okay with waiting outside. They put a emphasis on local foods first, a very eco-friendly business. Great coffee to boot. Lunch is much more informal during the week, a great take-out spot. Wonderful breads too.

• Pros: Great food, eco-friendly, eclectic
• Cons: limited parking, limited space

Great place!

by bobbob99

While looking for a breakfast joint before 8 of us headed back to LA, we were referred to Avenues Bakery. The service was great, the omelettes were off the charts, the coffee was better than any Starbucks, unique breads, local suppliers, just absolutely awesome! Try the omelette but make sure you add mushrooms, red peppers, olives and the salmon. Can't wait to visit this place again!!

• Pros: Great atmosphere, great food and coffee.
• Cons: Parking was tight.
