My wife and I were visiting the area and happened to stumble across this charming spot, and we're so glad we did. They offer a wide variety of European pastries, croissant sandwiches, and other bakery favorites. The standout for us was the brioche donut -- the filling was easily one of the best we've had, both in flavor and generosity. Every bite was packed perfectly. We also tried the breakfast croissant, which was delicious, but the white cheddar truly took it to another level. We noticed they also host cooking classes, which looked like such a fun experience. If we lived nearby, this would absolutely become a regular date night spot or a great activity with friends. Definitely a memorable find while traveling.

Amazing coffee, super convenient, and great owners!! It is just a drive-thru, so stay in your car. We pulled up to one of the windows, ordered, got our drinks, and were back on the road quickly without having to get out of our car. Great black coffee and my wife's peanut butter cup latte was delicious! They even had several drinks for our kids, like hot cocoa and coconut milk steamers. read more

Also, it had been over 24 hours since I had a hot chocolate and slept. My travel experience had been less than good, to say the least.

I said no way, I asked if they could break a twenty because I needed change. I tipped them a ten-dollar bill. Thanked them and walked away smiling. They were so nice and made my day, somehow making my interaction with the TSA and airport police fade away slightly, somehow. The counter was clean and well placed.
