Locals Can't Get Enough Of The Artisan Creations At This Mom And Pop Bakery In North Dakota

There’s something so fun and special about those little mom-and-pop shops you find every so often that you simply won’t find anywhere else. There’s a hyper-local sense of camaraderie in these little places, and North Dakota is lucky enough to have several worth discussing. I’d like to take a moment, though, to appreciate one little spot that somehow doesn’t get the love it so rightly deserves. It’s one of the best bakeries in North Dakota, and it’s been a favorite among Fargo locals since 1985. It’s the delightful Red River Coffee Company, and it might just be the best lil’ mom and pop bakery in North Dakota.
