About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were gathering their loaves of bread, an announcement crackled over Costco’s intercom: ‘Attention shoppers—we’ve just received our weekly shipment of talking bagels.’ A delivery driver, wide-eyed and grinning, rushed into the store, shouting, 'They’re real, I swear!' People crowded around as the first bagel spoke up, saying, 'Good morning everyone! We’re here to stay until closing time.' A regular customer joked, 'Guess I’ll grab some butter too—might be a while before they come back!' The bakery became famous overnight for its chatty bagels, attracting tourists from miles away.
2. At dawn, when Costco’s doors opened, a faint humming filled the air. A regular noticed it first—an eerie, almost mechanical whirring that seemed to come from deep within the bakery section. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old timer setting up shelves. ‘Just my new mixer,’ he chuckled. The regular shrugged it off, but every morning thereafter, the hum grew louder—until one day, a delivery driver joked, “Maybe they’re baking secret doughnuts for Costco execs.” Everyone laughed, and soon it became known as the ‘Costco Bakery Mystery Hum.’
3. One day, while a delivery driver was unloading fresh pastries, he noticed something peculiar on each box: a tiny note reading ‘Eat me last.’ Curious, the driver decided to taste one himself before anything else. To his surprise, it tasted like nothing he'd ever had—so delicious that he finished the entire batch in one sitting! Word spread quickly among neighbors who started visiting Costco just for those mysterious pastries. Now, whenever someone asks why they always see him with a huge smile, he simply says, 'Because every bite is a little bit of heaven.'
4. At midnight, when Costco Bakery's ovens were still warm and empty, a soft tinkling sound echoed through the aisles. It grew louder with each passing minute, like tiny bells dancing in the night. Finally, an old delivery driver appeared from behind the shelves, rubbing his ears and smiling sheepishly. 'Just checking if the oven was still on,' he said, blushing. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe Costco Bakery had its very own nocturnal pastry elf after all.
