Crema's Take

Budgie's Bakeshop is a genuine hometown gem where the coffee pairs beautifully with some of the most celebrated donuts in the area—their Sunday varieties, especially the lemon and cinnamon sugar, are legendary for their perfect balance of flavor and texture. This is the kind of warm, family-friendly spot where you can linger over a latte and fresh pastry or grab something quick, and the care that goes into every item (from quiches to apple fritters) makes it clear why locals can't stop raving about it.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

I’m enjoying THE BEST doughnut I have ever eaten!! It’s lemony and crunchy-chewy delicious! It’s not super sweet, but so very flavorful. The apple fritter is just as good with big chunks of apple. Perfectly fried. Extraordinary! And I just had to try their coffee latte with…
