About This Spot

An old-school 24th Street bakery with electric trains in the window that mesmerize kids. Mini cookies, cupcakes, and scones — plus serious bread and coffee for parents. Lines out the door on weekends, but it moves. The kind of neighborhood institution that's been fueling playground trips for decades.

💡

The mini cookies are perfect for little hands — grab a bag for the stroller ride. Weekend lines look long but move fast. The model trains in the window buy you 5 minutes of peace while you order. Their sourdough and morning buns are the real draw for parents. Cash and card accepted.
