As always Elm Street Bakery was hopping with activity. It's a place that has both little ones and…read moreolder ones enjoying something irresistible. The food is worth the line to order it. I ordered a Chai Latte and then a box of baked goods and a baguette. The baguette was that perfect crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Then the Earl Grey Blueberry scone was just delicious. I also got orange pistachio scones and molasses cookies. They all freeze well so i usually buy two and freeze one. And finally the Chai Latte was just perfect. Not too sweet and no heartburn. I don't know why but sometimes that's a side effect of Chai. So not only is the food delicious but the people watching is worth the price of admission. A must try.

That's ESB, if you were to come here for a bills game, or Niagara Falls, or whatever else. This charming little bakery just hits all the right spots. The egg sammy's are down right delicious. Try the spicy aioli, not so much spice, but it pairs so well with it. Thick cut bacon and a brioche bun. C'mon now. The crème brule french toast is 2 large slabs of homemade bread, that just tastes so fresh. The line will probably be long, but that gives you time to decide on what pastry to grab in the array of treats. There's truly something for everyone, and it is all great. Also make sure to grab some of the house made sourdough, got the Italian loaf for garlic bread for dinner and it was terrific. Perfectly balanced with the light and airy inside with a crunchy undercarriage.

This is a difficult review to write because, on one hand, this bakery is truly a gem. The ambiance…read moreis warm and inviting, the food is excellent, and it's the kind of place you want to linger with a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, what I experienced this past Saturday morning completely undermined that charm. A local running group had clearly made this their post-run stop, which in itself is perfectly fine. Many of the women were seated respectfully like any other patrons. However, one man took it upon himself to turn the front of the bakery into his personal gym. While customers stood waiting for their coffee, he was drenched in sweat, performing cooldown exercises right in the lobby--hands flat on the floor, legs in the air, squats, jumping--completely oblivious to the people around him. The smell alone was enough to turn your stomach. This isn't a locker room. It's not a sidewalk. It's a place where people come to eat and drink. There was no awareness, no courtesy, no basic respect for shared space. It was uncomfortable, unhygienic, and frankly shocking to witness in a setting that otherwise prides itself on atmosphere. The bakery deserves praise for its food and environment, but management needs to step in and set clear expectations. Allowing behavior like this diminishes the experience for everyone else. There's a line between casual and careless--and this crossed it entirely. Hope you are ashamed of your self sir and I use the word sir loosely...

Purr-fect Tea is really lovely and a hidden gem. I have yet to find a place that sells as many…read moreloose teas as this shop. The woman working here is incredibly friendly, helpful and knowledgable. She knows so much about tea and herbal medicines. They had such a range of loose teas and each had a description. You are able to open any of the teas and smell them. Below each tea, there is a description of why they are healthy for you and what ailments they have the ability to alleviate. In addition to tons of loose teas, they have kettles and mugs you can purchase, coffee varieties, harney & sons tea, a seating area and other creams and herbal products. This place is expensive, however, for example their harney & sons tea was about $9 when you can buy it in other stores for around $6 tor $7. We were pressed for time when we stopped in here but I have no doubt we will be back.

Today, we came in after the big breakfast rush, so there was plenty of comfortable seating throughout the restaurant. They have a specials menu that changes with the month. Everything on the menu is innovative, and an upgrade from whatever ordinary breakfast you're used to. Our waitress served up fresh hot mugs of coffee for us, and explained that their loyalty program was moving to a Phone app. Unfortunately, we would not be able to use our Wallet card which had three punches on it already. Today I ordered a Cali chicken club wrap, which was a very delicious mix, chopped chicken breast, romaine, wedges of avocado, and bacon with a nice ranch dressing, all in a soft tortilla wrap. For my side, I chose coleslaw. My food is so delicious, no complaints here. My handsome dining companion got the Pork Belly Hash with sweet potato tots, and two eggs OE and toast. I did sneak my fork across the table to grab a chunk of pork belly which made my eyes roll back into my head. My next bite was one of the deep fried sweet potato tots. Very delicious, but I can't make a habit out of anything deep fried anymore. All of this deliciousness came our way for under 40 bucks. Thankfully, we had a nice Christmas gift certificate from one of the grandkids. We do highly recommend any of the Poked Yolk locations.
