This cafe, located at Cambridge Crossing, offers delicious morning pastries—from salted hazelnut sticky buns to smoked salmon and everything danishes—as well as breakfast sandwiches and healthier options, like overnight oats and Greek yogurt with granola. Its doors are open starting at 7am during the week, so you can grab some goodies before having to head to work. And if you have time on the weekends, be sure to make use of its beautiful patio and take your orders al fresco.
