I was lured in by the sandwich board offering spinach-and-cheese pie (which turned out to be delicious), but I couldn't resist bringing home a muffin too. Also delicious.
Over the years I have brought home many of their pastries, which look like miraculous works of art to me, almost too pretty to eat… Almost. They pour a tasty brew as well, and there's plenty of room to post up in the back with a steaming mug and a friend, which I have done myself on more than one occasion.
