5 months agoTried several of the croissants and cinnamon breads as well as a small quiche. All of it was very good!! Also got some of the breads to go and everything was very fresh and looked amazing! The shop was very clean and inviting and the owner was very friendly! Definitely would recommend for any coffee or bakery needs. You can also order larger items to go ahead of time such as loaves or bread or large quiches.

6 months agoMy first time here and it’s fantastic. Great variety of pastries, croissants, quiches, and breads. Charming atmosphere. Reminded of coffee shops/bakeries in New England. Very friendly staff. I had the sticky bun, the chocolate/almond croissant, and a drip coffee. Everything was sooo good. Plenty of parking. Six tables inside and a couple of picnic benches outside. I’ll definitely be back! Went back and had a strawberry/cream cheese croissant and took home a cinnamon bun with cream cheese frosting. Both were delicious. I’ve been back many times. My only complaint, especially if you’re going to sit there for awhile, the bell on the door is one of the most annoying things ever.

11 months agoI always look forward to visiting this mom&pop style cafe. Always an abundance of great treats here. I highly recommend the lemon poppyseed loaf & monkey bread. The day-old is half price if they’ve got it. The owner is an incredible French woman - she knows her croissants which are the star of the front display everyday as well.

a year agoGreat little bakery for bread, quiche and pastries. The Peach Thing pastry is one of the best things I've had in a long time and the latte was excellent paired with it. Other pastries looked good too. The breads here are outstanding. Service was very good - friendly, helpful and quick. The space is welcoming and comfortable. There was a steady stream of customers while I was there. Though busy, parking spaces were available.
