There are so many highlights of this bakery! First, their sourdough bread was really delicious with a nice and tender crumb and pleasant crust. I didn't like the multigrain as much because it had a more sourdough-like taste that I wasn't used to in most multigrains. I also was able to try the scones, with the almond/cranberry scone being delicious and buttery without any interior dryness and the blueberry scone a little more bland in flavor and somewhat more moist than my liking.
Another great aspect is that the cashier was really very kind and helpful, allowing me to sample the multigrain before buying.
I also really enjoyed the small grocery section that came in handy because I was really starving and appreciated some cheese to accompany my bread. It ended up being frozen chevre and I had to wait for it to thaw... bummer.
That said, I liked almost everything and I appreciate the bakery's contribution to the neighborhood (WiFi!!!) but I wasn't blown away to give 5 stars. I also wasn't really accustomed to the prices, which were higher than I expected -- we paid almost $20 for a loaf of bread, a small cheese ($6+), 2 scones, and a small coffee. Maybe it's because I'm from an area a lot further south.

We've been crossing Lake Champlain for years now to have the best pizza in the north country. We've found the best time is an hour before sunset and to sit outside in the space between the bakery and the owner's home because the light is nice in that nook. The inside seating is also nice - authentic and comfortable. We've enjoyed all of the pizzas especially ones with balsamic reductions or fresh veggies. The salads are also excellent.
If you're looking for excellent pizza in an authentic setting in a tiny north country town and you have time to relax and chat with friends, add Dogwood to your itinerary (Wednesday and Friday evenings in the summer) and enjoy!
