I stopped in for the first time today, and I'm so thrilled to have a European bakery in Durham. When I lived in the northeast, it was easy to find Polish and other European foods and baked goods and I've missed that a lot since I moved back to the south. This place is a real hidden gem. Everything I ordered was delicious, especially the sourdough bread.

Went there at opening to grab pastries and coffee for a morning get together. The pastries were good - I bought a fairly wide selection including scones, polish cookies, more traditional cookies, crumb cake, and more. The staff was so kind and helpful and patient!
Unfortunately there were no pierogis ready when I went to order.
The coffee was OK. I don't know if I would order it again - and my guests who I also got coffee for had the same general impression (and that's the only reason I'm giving 4/5 stars).

Have loved everything I've tried (focaccia, sourdough bread, chocolate bouchons, and more I can't spell). Favorite is the Paczki! The textures and flavors make these more than just a jelly filled doughnut. Appreciate the free samples to try before buying too.
Coffee and service is top notch and a good casual meeting spot. Margaret and her staff are fostering community and palates.

The space is nice and the items are well displayed. The smaller pastries were okay but a bit pricey. I didn't feel very welcomed as a customer. The lady at the register was pleasant enough. But the guy in the kitchen stared at me the entire time and it was not a friendly look. I won't be returning.

The pumpkin pastry and tomato cheese bread that we ordered was really good. They also had some (free) little toys for kids to take home and play with, which was a nice touch. It’s a little hard to find; look for two little picnic tables out front.

Stumbled on this bakery and was happy that I did! The selection of items was amazing, settled on Italian Coffee Shots, Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, and a Cappuccino. Everything was amazing and the staff was warm and super friendly! I’ll be back!

Grabbed some pastries and an espresso. The pastries where FANTASTIC! Espresso delicious and a great compliment. The owner and staff were very friendly, and professional. I will definitely be going back often, but I need to get there earlier and check out a weekend.

Wow, I can't wait to see the place develop. Their offerings are already stellar - the pastry I got was delicious. I should have gotten more. The staff member I talked to was also super friendly. I look forward to coming back soon. I'm also excited that they're serving coffee from Carrboro Coffee Roasters. They make some of my favorite coffee in the area
