We enjoyed several of the pastry selections from brioche to fruit bread. Everything was delicious and served with excellent coffee at a very reasonable price. Definitely will be making a return visit soon.

Ever herd [ha] of a beouf bourginon pie. Neither had i until the other day. Awesome. Don't delay when you're in the shop and it's well worth waiting for if they need to heat it up.
