What a great little grocery store with a little bit of everything! It's not huge but a good size and very clean and bright. They have shelf-stable items, frozen products, refrigerated items, fresh produce, prepared foods in the fridge, a deli and a bakery.
Their bakery items are baked by their own pastry chef! They have a good selection of gluten-free pastries too. I got a strawberry filled croissant ($4.49) and my husband got a cannoli ($4.25) but we ended up sharing both, lol.
The cannoli was good and despite being prefilled, the pastry wasn't soggy and still had some crunch to it. The filling was thick and creamy, but a bit too sweet for my tastes. The strawberry filled croissant was delicious, but really messy to eat. When we bit into the croissant, the cream squirted out everywhere, lol. The cream was a mix of whipped cream and custard. I loved it. It had a good amount of sliced strawberries. The croissant was flakey and buttery.
I'm definitely looking forward to trying their other pastries.
Staff were nice and welcoming.
