Chandler SecoryAugust 18, 2013Best cinnamon rolls in the city! I don't even like icing but you GOTTA get a lot of it here on your roll, it's aaaaamaaaaazing!! Plus they have great coffee!
Cassie UttOctober 4, 2015The Puppy Dog Tails are the best! Everything is good, but once you've had a Puppy Dog Tail you won't go back. :)

We've only done bakery items. Puppy dog tails are great if you don't want the full cinnamon roll. Coffee cake changes based on season. Great variety of scones. family faves are buttermilk varieties.
Heavy TableJune 28, 2012Try the secret focaccia pizza for lunch, topped with whatever veggies and cheese the bakers have on hand. Get there early though, because they usually bake just one!

Bethany ScribnerAugust 22, 2013Even middle of the week during the day it's busy, it's that good. And I saw three people picking up some orders to go. Must be doing something right!
Brian HFebruary 18, 2013Used to work here many years ago. Still the best cinnamon buns on the planet, period. Make sure to load up on extra cream cheese frosting. Your heart doc will be proud!
City PagesAugust 5, 2014All children should see how difficult it is to flatten yeast dough into a rectangle a yard long and then roll it up like a sweet, cinnamon-filled carpet. Read more
Andrew NovakJuly 22, 2018Really friendly service, great cinnamon buns and if you’re a first timer you get a free puppy dog tail.- City PagesFebruary 22, 2011Voted by City Pages in 2010 as having the Best Sweet Rolls . The cinnamon buns are as big as your head and come plain, dripping in caramel goodness, or slathered with cream cheese frosting.
- AllysonJuly 25, 2019Love the coffee cake! The cinnamon buns are great as well- especially with extra frosting!
Rachel FloydJuly 22, 2011Must try the puppy dog tails. They're $1 cinnamon twists. And don't forget to stop by the tub of frosting and add as much as you want!
The coffee is a bit rough but you're there for the buns anyway. Get there before 9:30 if you can otherwise you're in for a long wait.
Andrew MurrayFebruary 9, 2014Add at least 3 pounds of additional frosting to your roll from the tub... or else.
Joshua TreeSeptember 16, 2016What is going on with Isle Bun? 3 Customers including myself who were standing in a 4 person line for 15 minutes had to leave. Better get your staff in order or you wont have a business.- Natalie OlbrantzOctober 3, 2011Best coffee cake and cinnabuns in mpls! Make sure to stop in if ur in the area.
Try a mocha or hot chocolate. The chocolate sauce is made in house from a family recipe.
Puppy dog tails are a sweet splurge that won't leave you feeling guilty
Vincent HopwoodApril 29, 2012Go early before the crowds get thick and the people behind the counter get crabby :(
They have a very low threshold for considering something a "large order." If in doubt, call ahead.
This isn't the correct Foursquare check-in spot. Look for Isles Bun and Coffee.
Puppy dog tails are like eating the best part of a cinnamon roll.
Day-olds! Where else can you buy more deliciousness than you can eat for just one dollar?
