The bakery case is filled with seasonal items that change often, which keeps things exciting. The quiches and tartines are particularly good if you want something savory, while the cookies and scones are excellent choices for a quick treat. The coffee holds its own, complementing the baked goods without overshadowing them. The café has a neighborhood feel, with staff who are both friendly and attentive. It does get crowded, and sometimes finding a table can be a challenge, but the buzz of conversation and smell of fresh bread make it a pleasant place to spend time. Floriole combines quality, consistency, and a sense of community, which makes it more than just a bakery.
