This is a new branch of the Grand Central Bakery and it is just as good. The best fresh breads and pastries you will find. They also have amazing soups and other things they will make you for lunches or picnics, as well as some premade pie or other pastry shells. Their gooey monkey bars are amazing, as are their fresh seasonal berry pastries.

We tried Scappoose Bay Paddling Center out with our kids, wanting to do something outdoors. They had our kayaks set up and ready for us, they gave us a map of the area and specific tips on where to go. We saw 2 bald eagles perched on a stump in the river, at least a dozen blue herons, as well as hawks and smaller birds. An amazing trip and will go back. Of note, they have "Half off Wednesdays."
They also carry canoes, paddle boards and other equipment. Reservations are highly recommended!
