Crema's Take

Bittersweet's cinnamon buns and pastries are worth the trip alone, with reviews praising their freshness and the charming, sun-filled space that begs you to linger with a book and iced latte. This is a serious bakery that handles wedding cakes with the same care they give their everyday offerings, though be warned that execution can be inconsistent—some customers rave about flawless experiences while others have dealt with timing mishaps.

What to expect

Cold brew standout. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.
