Great little bakery, to add to it's charm: an unmarked entrance to the east of the store front leading upstairs to a quiet wine bar. Open after 6 pm, a great romantic, quiet, even solo traveler spot.

Great breakfast spot, but no booze. I'd head somewhere else if you need a Bloody Mary with your waffles.

Ok. I'm on the fence with this place. I love the sing-a-long thing. I love the atmosphere. I think the prices are silly. Being part of the Broadmoor immediately ads $5 to anything on the menu & it's packed with convention visitors. If you're here for a longer visit, or love sing-a-long bar, try this place out. It's loads of fun.
