About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular at BF Bakery & Cafe noticed something strange on his way out. ‘Hey,’ he called to the baker, ‘why does your display case always seem fuller when I leave than when I came in?’ The baker shrugged and smiled. 'Ah,' he said, 'that’s because you’re our most generous customer. Every time you come in, you take away the prettiest pastries!' A regular laughed good-naturedly, realizing it was all part of the charming charm of BF Bakery & Cafe.

2. A little girl visiting her grandmother pointed excitedly one morning: ‘Grandma, why does that lady’s cake grow legs and walk away?’ Grandma smiled gently, patting the little girl’s head. ‘Oh honey,’ she whispered, ‘that “cake” is actually our baker, Mrs. Fields. She just likes to move around the shop on her rolling stool while she works.’ The child giggled, realizing her mistake, but from then on whenever anyone asked what happened to the walking cakes, Grandma would wink and say, “They found their own feet!”

3. One day, an elderly gentleman entered BF Bakery & Cafe and asked the waitress, 'Why do you always serve exactly seven croissants per tray?' The waitress smiled and replied, ‘It’s our secret recipe—seven is just right for a perfect bite.’ The old man nodded wisely and ordered his usual. Little did he know that every morning, a delivery driver carefully counted each croissant before placing them on the tray.

4. One foggy morning, as customers were gathering their pastries from BF Bakery & Cafe, someone spotted an old, dusty violin nestled among the bread racks. Curiosity got the better of them, and soon the whole cafe was crowded around the instrument. Turns out it belonged to a regular who’d left it there weeks ago. The owner joked, ‘Now we know why our sourdough was so melodic!’
