This place has such fresh and yummy sandwiches and treats that are reasonably priced. But wait there is more, if you make your way to the back of the bakery you can sit outside on their lovely deck and be entertained by the visiting iguana who actually loves the camera. Stop by you will be so glad you did.
Such a cool spot for a quick and deliciously prepared sweet breakfast experience. The pastries were just right, not too sweet, clearly scratch made, and the coffee beverages done well. The waterfront eating area out back, complete with friendly resident iguanas, was the icing on the cake.
