Just the sweetest bakery/cafe around... and it's in W. Asheville - out of the hubbub of downtown. It will transport you to 1940's Paris with its ambience. May even make you shed a tear with their amazing pastries and breads. Coffee is on point. On a warm day, try their seasonal shrub, and on a cold day, try their butter chai...! No wifi here - focus on the treats and company instead.
