BRUG Bakery is celebrating 11 years in Hawaii. The Japanese-style bakery is known for its artisan baked goods. To commemorate the occasion, it is offering $2 pastries at all five of its Hawaii stores only on July 3 (pastries are limited to 12 per person).
No preorders or other discounts will be accepted for the pastry promotion. BRUG will not offer breads that day to focus on pastry sales.
The business also recently partnered with Eden in Love to create a special collab bag collection. The limited-edition collection is available at all five BRUG Bakery locations, while supplies last.
