You have arrived ... to a legacy bakery that serves amazing breakfast or lunch sandwiches at unbelievable prices! I get the egg and roasted peppers sandwich or cinnamon roll for breakfast, or the chicken parmigiana sandwich or mini-rolls (sausage is best but chicken and eggplant are great too!). No coffee.
