About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At DJ’s Bakery, every morning begins with the same routine: customers line up for fresh pastries and coffee. But recently, one particular announcement has become a fixture on the store’s intercom. ‘Ladies and gentlemen,’ it says, ‘our special of the day is love.’ No one knows who started it or why, but ever since then, strangers leave notes of affection on each other’s tables—all thanks to DJ’s mysterious anonymous admirer. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked for his usual croissant. As he sat down, he noticed a note addressed to him: 'To our most loyal customer, keep coming back—we miss you when you're gone!' Turns out, everyone in the neighborhood had been leaving messages for each other, even though they didn’t realize it was happening until someone pointed it out to them.
2. A neighborhood kid was always hanging around outside DJ’s Bakery after school hours. One day, he noticed something peculiar—every time someone bought a dozen donuts, the shopkeeper would hum the exact same tune. Finally curious, the boy followed the sound one afternoon and found an old radio hidden behind the counter playing the same melody every time. From then on, whenever anyone ordered a dozen donuts, the whole bakery would sing along until the last note faded away. It became such a tradition that even the delivery drivers joined in, making DJ’s Bakery famous for its singing donut deliveries.
3. At DJ’s Bakery, there’s an old coffee machine that no one can quite explain. It never breaks down, but sometimes it spits out extra large pastries—enough for two people. Regulars joke that someone must be pulling strings from behind the counter. One day, a delivery driver noticed the machine was giving away triple-sized croissants. Curious, he asked the owner who just smiled mysteriously and said, ‘It seems our secret pastry benefactor has decided to treat us today.’ A regular overheard and quipped, ‘Maybe next time they’ll give us a whole cake!’
4. At DJ’s Bakery, early mornings are usually quiet, but lately something strange has been happening before sunrise. The door mysteriously opens just as the first rays touch the sky, and a shadowy figure hurries inside, buying only one item before vanishing into thin air. One morning, a sleepy delivery driver arrived early for his shift. He entered the almost-empty shop, found the mysterious pastry, bought it quickly, then left without a word. Later that day, everyone agreed it must’ve been ‘the neighbor’ again—who else would buy just one tiny croissant so early in the morning?
