The bad - no adults on sight and the kids running the place didn't quite fit the family establishment model. Short short shorts, cussing and dropping bombs, and just goofing around taking longer time than necessary. Management needed.

My fiancé has to eat gluten free and was like a kid in a candy shop and said he was blacking out as he kept adding things to his order. There are so many options. Sweet and savory. We happened to go on a Friday which is focaccia Friday so there were two focaccia options to choose from as well!

You'll also find seasonal items that are reflective of the berries, apples, and fruits harvested in Western North Carolina throughout the year. They have an small staff that is usually very friendly and attentive. Whether you're in town for a weekend getaway or an extended period of time you'll feel like a local when you walk in. Make sure to check their hours and days to make sure they're open, as they are closed for a few days every week. So plan according! ; ) One of our favorite loyalty programs is their old school punch card for Lattes that seem to rotate flavors on a daily basis. After you get to 10 or so they'll give you a free one, which is a fun incentive in our family for sure! Guten Appetit!

Their chicken salad is stellar; i no longer make my own - i just walk up the street and buy theirs. Their sandwiches are excellent. I've also bought a number of cakes, cookies and other desserts there. My favorite is the tiramisu and the red velvet cake. The cakes are also gorgeous - beautifully decorated. There's a reason you see a lot of locals dining here - we know it is one of the best places in town.

Here we go again!!! Another review spurred by a lovely Yelper liking my pictures. Thank you Rose…read moreD. For jarring my memory and giving me memories to fix not writing a great review for this place. We traveled to Brevard back in 2022 for one of our annual leaf viewing tours. Fun fact about Brevard! There are white squirrels everywhere. There are also regular brown squirrels too. My wife told me about this before we got here but it's strange, there are so many of them. One of the oddest things I find is that there are no mixed squirrels. Like kinda brown, or kinda white, it's either one or the other. They hang together, surely they get it on. What the hell is going on here?!?!? Where did they come from? Why haven't they spread to other areas?? Anyway.... About this bakery. We stopped by here a few times for meals and snacks. Most of it was just pretty good and nothing to really write home (lol) about. I did not know this at the time and did not truly savor the moment well enough. I had the absolute best pastry I have ever had in my life here. I often think back to it and when I see a similar looking pastry only to be let down when I try it. It was the scone to beat all other scones!!! So freaking good!! Orange Pistachio Coriander was the flavor and nothing will ever beat it I am afraid!! If you make it here, check out the white squirrels. There are even gift shops dedicated to them and I swear they have little signs all over town about them. Also.... Mantiques is right down the way. Great shopping!! '22 - I can't even remember, lol.

I'll keep checking back- staff is so over the top nice. Kind of an odd setup that looks like it is ready to travel if things don't go well here. Hope they find away to serve the maple soft serve soon, and as a daily option.
