Fodor's Choice
Influential types arrive at lunchtime en masse for a table at this bustling bakery and sandwich shop where vegetables are organically grown in a nearby garden and fresh crab is flown in for salads. Crowd pleasers include Le Cubain panini (pancetta, roasted pork, Gruyère) and the “poached egg on your face” breakfast sandwich (spicy poached eggs with herbs and mayonnaise, Comté cheese, speck and slow-roasted tomatoes). The sour cherry ginger scones or chocolate brioche are also constant winners.
