Mary O's Irish Soda Bread Shop

This small, no-frills bakery relies on a highly simplified menu to keep its fast-moving line in order. Beyond the individual scones, the shop bakes whole loaves of Irish soda bread to take home. The scones themselves balance a crispy crust with a soft, buttery interior that is not overly sweet, paired with melted, salted butter. With a 1:00 PM closing time, popular items sell out quickly, occasionally leaving latecomers at the end of the line empty-handed. Seating inside is minimal.
