Blue Bird Bake Shop

Orlando


Tiny retro Blue Bird Bake Shop, named after the favorite bird of the owner's grandma, offers daily baked cupcakes. Flavors range from classic chocolate to quirky vanilla black pepper or sweet potato. Closes early if cupcakes run out. While the coffee is nothing to rave about, it has the best chocolate brownie we've ever tasted. Yes. Ever.
