I went in to buy some ficottia bread and found one with a bite taken out of it on the shelf! I'm all for the rustic honor system but you may want to offer some assistance to your customers on the floor.

We used to go here all of the time in high school, since we could just walk here. The cinnamon rolls are incredible. So I definitely recommend going on a Friday morning. The pepperoni bread is also incredible. I would highly suggest you check this place out! The pricing was reasonable to as far as I can remember!!

Don't understand all the positive reviews about this place. There's nothing fresh or unique here. Everything here can be found in a low-grade Walmart bakery. All they have here is pre-packaged Wonderbread.

Absolutely love the bakery. Their Italian hearth bread is my favorite if I HAD to pick. Go on Fridays and get yourself a special treat, like their cinnamon buns with cream cheese or peanut butter icing, their pepperoni bread or even their bagels.. trust me, you wont regret it, but get there early, because everyone wants one and they sell out fast! No matter what you choose while youre there, you wont be sad. I love that their breads have imperfections because you know that they arent just processed through a machine and packed full of preservatives. Youll get yourself as close
