    Start your day the pastry way. 🍪 I usually get some savory morning buns, cheese & ham pie and oatmeal cookies.

    The pastries are very good but not mindblowing. Their cakes are also great for celebrations. The baguette is on the spongy side compared to Acme but still good.

    Their orange cornmeal cookie is a seasonal treat that's like a cross btwn a crisp sugar cookie and cornmeal pizza crust. Buttery, crunchy, and orange scented, goes geeat with coffee/tea or ice cream.

    Simply the best morning buns ever baked and pick up a freshly baked rustic baguette for lunch or dinner -- delicious!

    Savory morning bun is better than the regular cinnamon sweet morning bun.

    The croissant here was about Safeway quality - and no espresso drinks on offer at all. Perhaps the cakes are better.
