Bakery & café · French-inspired baking

Why go

This family-run Canton bakery draws on French baking techniques and seasonal ingredients while incorporating the founders’ own influences. It is a stop for baked goods and café drinks rather than a full-service evening meal. Consult the bakery’s published bake schedule to plan around the items you want.
