The Baker's Bench
33 Brackett St, Westbrook, ME
Crema's Take
“This beloved Westbrook bakery is a serious destination for buttery, melt-in-your-mouth croissants and cream horns that locals genuinely can't find elsewhere—the chocolate and ham-and-cheese varieties are particularly worth the visit. Beyond the pastries, their breakfast sandwiches are generous and thoughtfully made, with flaky croissants that perfectly cradle quality fillings like bacon and egg. It's the kind of place where the baked goods are genuinely craveable enough to keep people coming back regularly, even if the cozy, no-frills atmosphere isn't going to wow you.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

It's probably a good thing for my waist line that I didn't find out about Baker's Bench sooner: their baked goods are to die for! They sell a variety of pastries, including almond and chocolate croissants, cheese and fruit Danishes, cinnamon buns (made with their croissant…
