The take
This corner is where the whole operation started in 2009, and it's still family-run. Bakery hours apply — everything wraps by 4pm, so make it a morning-or-lunch habit.
What to order: Go for a gooey cinnamon bun and a made-to-order breakfast sandwich — and yes, they'll serve your coffee in an ice cream cone.

Questions people ask
Is it somewhere I can sit and work?
Yes — free WiFi and, in the bakery's own words, plenty of room to settle in.
Is there parking?
Yes — a dedicated lot off 7th Street, a short walk from Independence Park and the bus stops.
How much notice do I need for a custom cake?
At least 48 hours, ordered by email or phone to this location directly.
Are there gluten-free options?
Yes — GF cheesecakes, chocolate soufflé cakes and coconut macaroons are regularly stocked. The bakery states plainly that it is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so trace gluten is possible.
That caveat is theirs, and it matters if you are coeliac rather than avoiding gluten by preference.
