How mornings work here
-
Come early for laminated things
Croissants and kouign-amann come out at 8:00 in finite trays. Lamination is yesterday’s work, so there is no “baking more” at eleven. The Saturday line knows this; now you do too.
-
We text the list when it’s gone
Join the sold-out list free at the counter: one text when laminated runs out, nothing else, leave anytime. Nobody should cross town for a croissant that stopped existing at 9:40.

Day-olds, half price at 1:00
Whatever yesterday didn’t sell goes on the counter at half price, labeled day-old, because that’s what it is. Yesterday’s sourdough is tomorrow’s best toast.
July on the counter
This month, while it lasts
· the slice
Palisade apricots on rough puff with a little honey and a little thyme, sliced generous.
The special changes when the fruit does; this card gets edited the same morning.
2:00 PM · Lights off
See you at 6:30.
The coffee is on at 6:25, the sourdough lands at 6:30, and the whole morning is on the board. If the case empties early, that only means it was a good day, and tomorrow starts on time.
