| - New bakery on the block, Fresh Bakery Cafe, looks pretty familiar. I was happy to see the smiling faces from the staff of Layers, the former tenants. The interior and furnishings still the same as well.
-- New Observations--
New owner/owners (but I never saw them at this visit)
Slightly different cafe menu offerings. Items look pretty simplistic and plain.
Bakery goods - Cakes sold by slices, different pastry offerings
They moved the utensils to on top of pick up counter
There's a large round table in middle of dining area.
I still don't have a clue what the focus of this place is. Or why it's called Fresh. Other than the "fresh" squeezed juices, There's really no emphasis on it. Nor can I find any literature or anything on social media other than photos on their Facebook page.
--Food--
Got Salmon sandwich. Just a simple sandwich with slices of salmon, cream cheese and wheat bread. With lettuce, onions and tomato. Tasted good but nothing really exciting or daring like Chipotle aioli spread. It was fresh though.
Looking over the menu, I see there's egg salad, ham, turkey, wraps,soups, smoothies, juices and coffee.
The bakery cases were filled with cookies, pastries, cupcakes. And different cakes and cakes sold by slices.
I got a red velvet cake. It was okay. Moist, fresh and not overly sweet. Pretty sure it was more buttercream instead of cream cheese as the frosting and filling. Not my favorite.
Prices were pretty affordable. Sandwich/Soup combo, lemonade with mint, cake, cookie totaled a little under twenty dollars.
Good to see this place is open!
