"Glad to see the bakery is still around. Hosted a birthday party over the weekend and wanted to share tastes of Jamaica with framily. I often forget that they also prepare Caribbean foods. (Though per reviews, food is only available on weekends and they prefer in person orders. Which would not have worked for my purposes) I think this has to do with the setup of the bakery. It doesn't extol the unique qualities of a bakery. That's always been their blind spot. Lack of product in display cases, utilizing space to show off foods /displays the goods they can prepare. It's bleak looking. It's been this way and continues. The bakery offers bulk pricing on larger purchases and since I love their patties, I had to get a bounty. Two dozen and I'm glad I had nephew split all of them into halves to feed more people. Stopped by the eve of our party and purchased a bit of everything they had in stock. Throughout the day they will refresh their warm cases. Purchased an assortment of jerk, cheesy beef, beef, curry chicken and a few veggie. The cost was affordable and the smiles from happy attendees were many. The patties were the first to go. I paired these with a tray of jerk wings, rice and fried plantains from Auntie Joy's. For more detailed information on the bakery see my last review or stop by and sample some good local Jamaican desserts and food. For more details see previous review."
