During a wine tasting weekend, needed to stop and have something to eat. Chose this place from recommendations and was not disappointed. Wonderful soup.

Incredible pastries, but what we like to do is buy a baguette, go to the Cheese Secrets store in the old town, and then have a picnic by the lake. With wine of course. If you're going for breakfast, have their cinnamon roll. Delicious!

I live locally and have been buying from the Willow since they opened. I must honestly admit that I have not seen the filth that some people have written about. She does employ young people who do try hard and are learning to deal with the public. The Willow makes the absolute best French sticks - much tastier than Aces.... More

Willow cakes was highly recommended by our wedding venue, so we decided to give it a try and order our cake here. Our wedding was in July 2006. When we arrived for our cake testing appointment (we lived out of town and had to drive in about 2 hours), we waited a really long time before anyone paid any attention... More

No prices anywhere. Not on the pastries, the sandwiches, quiche, not even the coffee. Is everyone so rich they don't need to ask? For one item, we asked and the clerk herself had no idea. She had to key it into the computer to find out. In the end, we had a sandwich, cornish pastie, a couple of biscotti and... More
