Description
A convenient stop on the daily commute, this corner shop offers takeaway options like grilled salmon and house-baked goods, including dense lemon and orange loaf cakes. However, visitor experiences suggest some variable consistency in the kitchen. While the frittata by the slice can be hit-or-miss, and coffee runs average, it remains a handy spot for picking up a quick dessert on the way home.
