Formerly Cannoli Stop Cafe, Oonahs Cafe & Bakery opened in August 2023 next to the car wash. This…read morecozy space was rearranged with the bakery counter to the left and the coolers and candy to the right. There is currently no seating here, so everything is takeout. Most of the individual bakery items are preplastic wrapped or packaged in clear plastic containers, similar to what the former Route 28 Bakery of Chichester did over a decade ago.
The baked goods sold here include a variety of cookies, brownies, rice krispie treats, cupcakes, pie slices, cake slices, muffins, and fresh baked flaky calzone pockets. They also sell breakfast items, pudding cups, edible cookie dough, eclairs, cream puffs, chocolate covered pretzels, macarons, tiramisu, fruit tarts, sandwiches, salads, coffee, shakes, and cold drinks.
I stopped by Oonah's Cafe & Bakery after work recently. I decided to get a Steak & Cheese Flaky Calzone ($10 plus tax), a large Chocolate Chunk Cookie ($2.75 plus tax), and a French Toast Muffin ($2.50 plus tax). The calzone was made and baked to order fresh. About 15 minutes later, the calzone was all set, served with a cup of marinara sauce for dipping.
Though small in size, the hot and flaky calzone was really good and was filled with shaved steak and melted cheese and great for dipping into the cool marinara sauce. The French toast muffin was dense and soft, like a sweet cake muffin. The chocolate chunk cookie was thick and soft with plenty of chocolate in each bite and great with my hot coffee.
Other than the absence of cannolis (that was Cannoli Stop, reopening in Concord), the baked goods here at Oonah's are pretty good.
