    Long lines seem to form during periods of kids' school breaks- summer, spring, winter. Avoid these seasonal bottlenecks!

    Dante! This is the 10th circle of hell, don't come here ever, there are many better bakeries you won't wait for 2 hrs. It isn't Disneyland, BTW Wash street isn't "gritty or blue collar" it is gentry

    Tourists have made this place into a nightmare. You can't even go in to actually look around for what you want instead you have to compete with people taking pictures of the decor crowding the store.
