How to order, step by step

- If you want to sit in, find a seat first. There are only a few tables, indoors and outside
- Order at least one drink per person if you stay
- Choose a cake or pastry from the display. Cinnamon rolls are made in small batches and can sell out
- Bring cash
What to order solo: The house cinnamon roll with a latte or hand-brewed coffee. Check the posted prices.
Best time to go alone: Right at opening on a weekday morning, before the pastries sell out and the tables fill.
