Title: Sweet Spot
Post by: Natman+Sparksdad on June 24, 2024, 01:04:14 PM
The new cafe/bakery is now open.
This is run by the same people as the original bakery across the road from the Barras.
All the usual bread and pies available plus an amazing array of cakes.

We had breakfast there this morning. The waffle machine wasn't working  so had pancakes. Pancakes, not crepes. Stacked 4 high, I had banoffee (1 of my 5 a day!), whilst the boss had Bueno.
Freshly squeezed OJ and a latte to accompany.

It's taken 2 years for this to come to fruition, but it is a lovely venue. In the morning, there are plenty of shaded tables.

My one gripe -and this is not the cafe's fault - is that people are now parking on the pavement forcing pedestrians (especially those with pushchairs) into the road. This is a gripe that also I have in the UK with inconsiderate car drivers.

Second that request-I dream of their pain au chocolat from
 the Bakery between holidays so any chance to have more of their goodies (and not have to get up at the crack of 11am before they run out/close the bakery!!) is great for me.

Hi BarbaraG,

It is next to the Barras on the opposite corner to Tasty Corner.

The original bakery is still functioning. This new venue is now the public outlet for its wares.

LOL. I know. Fancy closing at 11, a mere 5 hours after starting work. This place is open late, so you may be able to place an order the night before?

New restaurant Spetserako is excellent would definitely recommend.
Beach has just about been cleared of seaweed. It’s taken a while.
Weather settled now but I believe winds back tomorrow!
Our last day, on late flight back tonight.
Enjoy those if you still to visit. X

Hey, Scottygirl,

We're also leaving tonight and delayed like most of Europe.

Currently enjoying the new lounge at the airport.

Have a safe journey.

Finger crossed neither of you have too long a delay.
